Chapter 341： time to disappear

Even in the pearly white state of the ghost, you can see Helena's snow-like skin before her death. Unlike her mother, Ravenclaw, though, Helena's beauty is always tinged with alienation.

"I haven't seen you much recently." Sean sat down beside Helena very familiarly.

Helena, who was floating in the air, glanced at the handsome young man beside her, and sighed slightly: "We were originally separated by the world."

Sean smiled slightly: "I saw Ms. Ravenclaw."

Helena replied subconsciously: "She has been watching the latecomers in Hogwarts..."

Speaking of which, she stopped suddenly, then looked at Sean hesitantly.

The handsome and considerate boy in front of him has always been sincere to people, including her ghost, of course, so after getting acquainted with him, Helena also knows that Sean seems to have a lot of magic.

Sean didn't sell anything, but took out a portrait.

Above the portrait are two women, one tall and one short. The older one is beautiful and majestic, while the younger one is as calm as a mother, but her face has more pride and vigor.

Helena froze in place, and sighed after a while.

"Did you find this too?"

The stunned person was replaced by Sean.

In his anticipation, Helena may be sad, painful, or hysterical, but her heart is naturally filled with regret and unwillingness.

Then, he can take Helena to Ravenclaw's secret room. Sean believes that Rowena Ravenclaw is likely to leave something for his immature but unfortunately dead daughter.

Finally, use her face and mouth, which are very useful when facing girls, to untangle Helena's heart.

Of course, no matter whether he can get the crown or not, Sean is still willing to do something for Helena, and the ghost has helped him many times before.

However, these were all rehearsals in Sean's heart, and the word "also" in Helena's mouth gave him a blow.

He is not the first person to enter the Ravenclaw secret room, and the person who entered before him also found Helena based on some clues...

It's not the first time Helena has seen this portrait of her with her mother Ravenclaw...

"Ma'am, have you seen this?" Sean tried to make himself seem calmer.

Helena's always flat and indifferent face showed a long-lost smile: "Yes, I have seen it. Sean, you are very smart, you have found the secret left by your mother."

"However, someone has come to me with this portrait before - Sean, I thank you, I know you want to untangle that knot in my heart, but I've seen it now, and I've got a mother Forgive me. However, I still want to thank you."

Helena's indifferent words made Sean a little embarrassed, he took a deep breath, and finally laughed.

"Congratulations, ma'am."

"Thank you, my friend." Helena could hear the sincerity in Sean's words, she picked up her transparent skirt and greeted slightly.

"Uh, Helena, please forgive me, I want to know who showed you this painting." Sean asked.

Helena shook her head: "Just like I'll keep a secret for you, I'll keep a secret for that person."

"I'm sorry, I was abrupt." Sean apologized.

Helena tilted her head curiously: "Did you just find this?"

Sean hesitated, and finally decided to say truthfully: "Yes, I just recently discovered the secret left by Ms. Ravencline, I found this among the things she left, I think you should need it, so I've come to find you."

"You're such a thoughtful person, Sean."

Sean shook his head with a wry smile: "To be honest, I don't think it's good to lie to you - wanting to help you untie the knot is part of it, and the other part is my selfishness. I want to find the crown of Ravenclaw."

Helena was not angry, she smiled calmly: "It is understandable that you have known each other for so long, and you do maintain a great enthusiasm for these unknown things."

"Uh, so, ma'am, can you help me?" Sean said a little embarrassedly.

"Actually, I do know where the crown is," Helena's flat voice made Sean feel a little bad. "It's just that it has probably been taken away now."

Sure enough, that person found Helena first and took the crown first.

However, there is good news - that person is probably not Voldemort.

If Voldemort knew he could control Hogwarts, he would never have transferred to Nurmengard.

Sean glanced at Helena, knowing that it seemed unrealistic to ask the person's specific identity from the other party's mouth, and finally he could only sigh.

"You don't need this portrait, though?" Sean finally asked.

Helena showed some doubts: "Of course - but the person told me that it was something my mother left behind, so I couldn't bring it out all the time."

Sure enough, that person has obtained the permission of the Room of Requirement like himself...

Sean nodded: "It's true, you can't keep it outside all the time, and return it when the time is up - but I can make a copy of this portrait for you and put it where you want."

"Is it really possible?" Helena finally became excited.

"Of course it can, I'm not sure if it can be converted into that kind of dynamic photo, but it's easy to copy the image." Sean nodded earnestly.

Helena floated and rotated in the air twice with some joy, her heart knot has been untied, but if you can get such a photo and see it from time to time, it is also a very worth celebrating.

After a while of joy, she finally tilted her head and said, "However, you shouldn't have to worry about the crown."

"Why do you say that?" This time it was Sean's turn to be confused.

"Because the new owner of the crown has no ill will towards you, even... um, how to say... the crown may still fall on your head."

"Huh?" Sean couldn't understand.

What does Helena mean by this, that person is looking for a crown for herself?

Probably seeing his doubts, Helena explained: "If I'm not wrong, that person really wants to do something for you - your guess is right. However, only wait for that person to come to you by himself. , you will understand."

"Do what for me?" Sean was lost in thought.

If you want to help me, you must at least know me, but as far as he knows, none of his friends should be able to find the crown in advance, and they should not hide it from him.

Is it Grindelwald or Dumbledore? not quite like...

While thinking about it, Sean shuddered.

He and Helena looked up in unison, then looked at each other suspiciously.

Just now, Sean felt an indescribable fluctuation. No, it's not appropriate to use fluctuations, it's a feeling of incomprehension.

It's like a person's sixth sense suddenly perceives some peculiar existence, and Sean is sure that this fluctuation is definitely not only felt by him, a wizard.

"You feel it too?" Sean reacted, looking at Helena in shock.

Ghosts are special beings. At present, apart from the soul magic that Voldemort researched and the basilisk's gaze, Sean doesn't know of anything that can affect ghosts.

And Helena was obviously doing the same thing as herself just now.

Helena was also puzzled: "Yes, that feeling is not clear... How can I feel it like you..."

"Have you experienced this before?" Sean asked.

"No..." She said, Helena was suddenly shocked, "This, I seem to have heard my mother say..."

"What is it?"

Helena floated up and looked into the distance, with puzzlement and worry in her eyes: "She said that time will give some people preferential treatment..."

Does time give preferential treatment to certain people? Sean frowned.

"Did Ms. Ravenclaw ever explain what that statement meant?" he asked.

Helena shook her head: "No, I only remember that it was my mother who made such a sigh when she was studying a magic spell. She just said at the time that there is a peculiar fluctuation that will spread throughout the world, and everyone can perceive it. Now, time will give some people preferential treatment...but maybe it means some kind of change and division."

Some kind of change and division? Sean took a deep breath, he always had a bad premonition.

After returning to the castle, as Helena said, everyone felt the strangeness. However, even the professors couldn't tell what it was.

In the hallway, the students were clamoring in a crowd, and Fred swore there: "I bet this must be the heartbeat of the wizard god!"

"No, no, I feel more like a heavy breath!"

"Why do I feel like a pair of eyes are open in the sky?"

No one has experienced it, and no one has heard of it. The students expressed their opinions there and described their feelings one after another.

However, no one can accurately describe that feeling, and yet, everyone knows that they feel the same.

If it wasn't for Sean's feeling that he was okay, he would even think that something was wrong with the guilt within him.

In the corner, Hermione was quickly flipping through the book, muttering quickly while flipping: "There is no record! There is no relevant description! I have only found some visions of the world that have appeared, but they are all correct. not up."

"Maybe only the Department of Mysteries at the Ministry of Magic will have records, or someone like Professor Dumbledore knows what's going on." Aside, Percy appeared out of nowhere, and he was holding a large Pile of quirky rhombus crystals.

"After you join the Ministry of Magic, remember to come back and tell me the answer." Sean teased, he knew that Percy was now ready to join the Ministry of Magic.

Percy puffed out his chest. "If possible—but, I'm an interview clerk, and these secrets may only be known to those who keep silent."

"God, you actually said 'possible'? Are you really going to inquire about this kind of secret for Sean? Please, you didn't even want to hide your whereabouts for your brother yesterday." stand up.

Percy glared at him. "Don't break school rules under my nose! Besides, Sean is a man of priorities, aren't you?"

"But I'm your own brother! I even saved your life!"

"So I didn't tell Filch about you throwing big **** in the hallway, I told Professor McGonagall."

"Is there a difference?!"

Sean smiled to stop the two brothers from arguing. He glanced at the diamond-shaped crystal in the other's hand and asked, "What is this?"

Percy's attitude towards Sean has always been very good, he explained: "Oh, you can't use it now, after all, it is a joint course. At the beginning, the time of several courses I took conflicted, so I could only use this kind of course. Phonographic crystals record professors lectures and then study by themselves in the evenings. Now that I don’t need them, Professor McGonagall asked me to take them to the storage room.”

Phonographic crystal? Sean nodded suddenly, he knew this too. However, the sound quality retained by the phonograph crystal is very poor, but for learning, it is enough to be able to hear it clearly.

"Eh—" Sean suddenly thought of something, "Percy, did you all use this for tutoring?"

"Yeah, what's wrong?" Percy asked.

"I mean, uh, isn't there anything else that would allow you to take two classes at the same time?" Sean asked.

Percy glanced at him suspiciously: "How could there be such a thing, and I won't do it."

Percy didn't take the class with a time-turner...

Sean and Percy were also very familiar with each other. The other party obviously didn't lie to him, and from the looks of him, it seemed that he had never heard of the time changer.

It's a bit strange... Could it be that the time converter has a problem because of the changes in the world line?

Sean especially misses Barty Crouch Jr. now, who has never heard from him, and can't get the information he wants from the Ministry of Magic.

Hey, apart from that guy's abnormal brain circuits and cruel personality, this absolutely loyal subordinate is indeed an excellent spy.

However, this is just a thought. Sean now seriously suspects that little Barty has been controlled, which makes him not dare to contact the other party rashly.

The strange fluctuations that everyone felt in the afternoon did not seem to cause any strange accidents. At least when they returned to the lounge after dinner, the sky was still dark and the bonfire was still burning.

When the night was getting dark, Sean lay back on the bed, he revisited the latest plan in his mind, and then fell asleep peacefully.

…

"Well..." On the bed, Sean yawned and opened his eyes.

His biological clock is fairly regular, so he usually wakes up his roommate first.

Sean stretched and looked out the window, it was still dark outside.

"It's probably a rainy day again today..." Sean muttered, and then habitually looked at his watch.

It should be around half past seven... However, the numbers on the dial made Sean frown.

Three forty-five. UU Reading

what happened? Did you put the watch in the Room of Requirement and it broke?

Sean was about to adjust the time, but the date in the center of the dial stopped him.

October twenty-eighth.

However, yesterday was obviously the 26th... Today is the 27th...

Is the watch really broken?

Sean sensed something was wrong, and he woke up Dave, who was more sensitive to time.

"Dave, how long have you been sleeping?"

"I slept for three hours... Hey, I feel weird... How do I feel, yesterday... No, no, it should be a day between yesterday and today, as if there isn't enough time?" Dave came with doubts idea.

Sean's eyes widened.

Not enough time on October 27th? !
