Chapter 48： Decline Manor (modified, typo modified)

Early morning in winter after snow, the sky is blue and far-reaching. Opening the window, the cold chill came, and the so-called heavy snow was no trace, the white outside was blank, and there was no trace of anyone walking. This does not mean that it is very safe, and the heavy snow may also bury the criminal act.

Morgan Le Fay prepared breakfast as usual, but the traditional ham and eggs failed to arouse the appetite of everyone.

When Irving announced the arrangements for everyone at the table, Morgan Le Fay could no longer pretend to be calm, "No, Irving, my magic is also strong and the spell is very skilled. I can face everything with you at home. thing."

"Dad, I think a therapist can play a big role in the face of battle." Daisy didn't want to sit on the sidelines, hiding herself in a safe place and letting blood relatives face unpredictable dangers, "You know When I was in Hogwarts, I often fought ... "

A quarrel or a debate about love is about to start. Alan is full of two plates, bringing a pot of breakfast tea, calling her little sister Emily, and taking her back to the room, he thinks it should not be Let the young children directly face the disputes of their parents, which will cause harm to their young hearts.

Emily took her copy in a sensible manner, and her expression was a little sad: "Alan, why did Mom and Dad quarrel?"

"Emily, because of some things that must be done, we must all be separated for a while. Although Mom and Dad are arguing, you have to believe that it is because they love each other." Allen reasoned patiently with her sister.

Emily looked even more sad: "Are we going to separate too?"

"Of course I will be with you." Allen continued to appease the little sister, and waited until the downstairs had calmed down before Allen took the newly packed luggage to the living room with Emily. Go to Aunt Josephine's house under escort-when flying powder, the user must stand in the fireplace, grab a powder of flying powder, clearly state the name of the destination, and then sprinkle flying powder, Ai Millie is too young to know where she will fly if she misses her tongue.

Flying Road Powder was invented by Ignatia Will Smith in the thirteenth century. Its manufacture is strictly controlled. The only licensed manufacturer in the UK is Floo-Pow, whose headquarters is on Diagon Alley, but no one has ever said where its gate is-the company ’s confidentiality does very good.

Feilufen has never been reported a shortage, and apart from knowing who the manufacturer is, no one knows who made it. Its price has remained unchanged for 100 years: a spoonful of two Xike. Every wizard family, whether rich or poor, has a certain amount of flying powder, usually placed in a box or vase on the fireplace.

While the regular manufacturing of Fei Lufen is strictly confidential, those who try to "self-sufficiency" have no success. At least once a year, Morgan Le Fay will receive some patients with trauma caused by "pseudo flyway powder" at the St. Mungo ’s Magical Injury Hospital. In other words, they put homemade powder into the fire and eat their own evils- As Rutherford Polk, an angry therapist and spokesperson for St. Mungo, said: "It's a spoonful of two West, please, so don't ask for a price reduction, don't throw Runi in the fire. The snake's fangs powder, and then don't blow yourself out of the chimney! If there is another wizard who burns his back, I swear I will never heal him. Just two spoons of Sico! "

When Irving gave a pair of children to his sister Josephine, he was still calm at this time. He still seemed a little bit reluctant at this time: "We will act according to the original plan, hoping that everything goes well, Alan, take care of your sister."

Owen embraced his children and resolutely turned to leave.

Aunt Josephine, who works in the Department of Magical Biological Management and Control of the Ministry of Magic, said that it is mostly because of the background of ‘someone in the ministry’ that Renn passed the internship so early ...

Aunt Josephine looks like a sturdy witch who is much younger than her actual age, with unhealthy pale skin and sharp blue eyes. She wore a dark purple dress, a black silk cape with black tassels, and a black female hat with purple velvet flowers on it, and they shuddered when she turned her head.

"God, little sweet bear is still so cute." Aunt Josephine lifted Emily and rubbed her face. Emily looked at her brother helplessly and saw the smiling face encouraged by Alan. She Then he shyly rested his chin on his aunt's shoulder.

"Alan, have you ever had breakfast?" After receiving a positive answer, Aunt Josephine took them to set up their luggage.

This is probably an old and somewhat declining manor. Aunt Josephine took them out of the living room with a huge fireplace and came to the hallway. It was a long corridor, and there were several other aisles. They walked along a fork to an upward staircase. These stairs go one step after another.

There is a door on both sides of the corridor, most of the doors are locked. There are still many paintings hanging on the wall, some of which are spooky and strange landscapes, but more are portraits of men and women. The people in the paintings are all wearing fancy dresses made of satin and velvet. Allen walked slowly, staring at the faces on the painting, who were staring at him.

Allen finally noticed the anomaly. Unlike the Hogwarts murals, although these people can move freely, they are all silent and unusually quiet. Emily couldn't help but leaned to her brother's side. This kind of picture is indeed a shock to the young girl.

They came to a large wooden door with a portrait of a little girl, and stopped. The little girl was wearing a red dress with gold and silver silk flowers, and squatted a dark green toad in her hand. curious.

Somewhat unexpectedly, Aunt Josephine also saluted the **** the painting: "Miss Clark, these two children need to stay here for a few nights, I hope you can allow it."

The toad in the hands of the little girl jumped and left the screen. After a while, the girl left the frame.

"Okay." Aunt Josephine pushed gently, and the huge door moved slowly and heavily.

After opening the door, a huge bedroom came into view, embroidered ornaments hung on the wall, clear-textured wooden furniture filled the room, a large window, inlaid with spliced ​​colorful block glass, outside the window It is a white wilderness covered with thick snowflakes.

A large soft bed covered with thick blankets was placed in front of an old mural. The content on the mural was already indistinguishable, but at first glance it felt strange and unpredictable.

"Don't worry, although it looks a little spooky here, it is a safe place." It seemed to worry about the fear of the two children, Aunt Josephine explained.

Allen raised the suitcase: "Thank you, aunt, please be assured that I will take care of my sister."

"Okay, then you take a break first. I'll call you to have lunch. If you feel bored, the library next door is the library. You can go over and see. There are many children's books that Miss Clark has seen." Aunt Serfin touched Emily's head again and turned away.

Allen opened the luggage ~ www.novelhall.com ~ and hung the clothes neatly in the oak wardrobe, thinking about how to get out and find Albert. It would be nice if he was an adult, at least he could move freely, regardless of his age.

After the initial placement, Alan found that there was nothing in the room suitable for Emily ’s play, so she took Emily to the next-door library that her aunt had just said. This room seemed to be unused. Books are neatly placed on the shelves.

It was probably Aunt Josephine who used “Clean and New” in advance, and the room was clean and there was no trace of dust.

Emily, who was put down by Allen, happily played in front of a short children's bookshelf. She moved out all the books inside, stacked tall and happily slapped straight at the palm-she didn't use them It is used as a building block toy.

The books are stacked higher and higher, and they are slowly tilted. The trembling book building collapses after Emily puts a thick fairy tale and smashes Emily. Alan, who had been preparing for it, had picked up Emily in a hurry and deliberately turned a few circles to tease her sister, but accidentally kicked the children's bookshelf.

Alan lifted the bookshelf and lifted a gap in the tapestry, and found that behind the tapestry was a narrow staircase tunnel, and there was a slight wind-many old buildings have this kind of secret passages that can keep the owner in danger It is used as an escape secret, but because her sister Emily is still around, Allen ca n’t go to investigate.

However, after eating a sumptuous lunch, the child is easily sleepy and unbearable. Emily falls asleep in the soft and warm bed. Alan took the opportunity this time to ask Aunt Josephine to take care of Emily. He excuses himself to concentrate on reading in the library, to explore the secret passages he discovered before.
