Harry Potter’s Morning Light

   Chapter 2482 Gossiphouse (Part 1)

  In the south of Alsace, there is a small town called Ilfit, where Napoleon sent the gendarmerie to arrest a group of robbers a while ago, and a small group of these people passed by.

  The robbers have received wide support from the masses. In order not to scare the snakes, the gendarmerie did not live in the town, but camped in the forest five miles outside the town.

   After arranging the night duty sequence, everyone except the night duty man fell asleep. It was just a normal day, but the captain suddenly felt wrong in the middle of the night. When he got up, he found that the guard in charge of the night duty was gone.

He hurriedly woke everyone up and put out the fire. The winter in Alsace is much colder than in Belgium, and he lay in the snow for about half an hour. Seeing that there was no other movement, the captain let the others Stand by, and then go to find the missing team member.

   He walked along the footprints on the snow for about three minutes, and immediately found the team member, who was standing motionless.

   "Joseph." The captain called the team member, but the latter remained unmoved and continued to stand like a dementia.

The captain didn't dare to be careless, he lit a torch, and then threw it in the dark direction the team members were looking at. Under the illumination of the fire, he could clearly see that it was a stone tablet, composed of a 30-foot-high stele. It consists of stone pillars with sculptures conceived by the Holy Spirit on the tops and inscriptions on the bases.

   It seems to be written in Latin, but the captain does not know Latin. After copying the text on it, the captain tied the player with a rope and took him away from the place. After returning to the camp, Joseph woke up. He didn't know what happened or when his teammates woke up.

The next day, the captain and his team members asked the nearby villagers and woodcutters about the stone pillars in the forest, but no one wanted to mention it, so they all left. Finally, the captain gave a big reward, and only learned from a hunter. something happened.

About 100 years ago, there lived a family of 7 people in the town, a pair of poor and smart parents and 5 children, 2 boys and 3 girls. It was nothing unusual at first. Teenagers, but one day, a "mischief elf" came to their home and haunted them for more than a year.

  This stone pillar originally belonged to the family. After the exorcism, the priest removed it from the family’s house and placed it in the forest alone.

The captain waited until noon, when the sun was at its strongest, before taking the two team members to investigate. The pillar was still in place, but it took a hundred years to make the tree behind it grow a lot. It may be that the root of the tree shook the foundation of the pillar. It seems a little slanted. The captain dug under the pillar with a shovel and found a hole underneath. Then he wrote a letter to report the discovery to his superiors.

The French Ministry of Magic sent wizards, but they did not go with the soldiers, but to "protect" the senior commanders. After receiving the information, two wizards went to investigate, and then there was no more, waiting for the commander to send someone When I went to Ilfit to find out, the place was already empty, as if it had been looted by robbers, and the original military police and wizards were nowhere to be seen.

   "Where's that pillar?" Rabastan Lestrange asked.

  Georgianna ignored him.

   When Peeves was almost driven out of Hogwarts, he used guns and cannons, which could kill students, and she didn't know how angry this mischievous elf would be.

   "Let's first ask people to find out what happened to the family who was harassed by prank spirits 100 years ago." Georgiana said calmly, "Paris has all the archives of the church library."

   "Of course they're happy and happy to continue living together," Lestrange said sarcastically.

   "You see the Latin text below?" said Georgiana.

  Lestrange looked at the stationery.

   "Four children," said Georgiana. "Where's the other child?"

   Lestrange did not answer.

   "Go check it out, fortunately we can communicate easily."

   "Alsace is a Protestant region, and Protestantism does not recognize exorcism," Lestrange said.

   "I don't think so." Georgiana shook her head. "Even in England, there are villagers who ask Catholic priests for help."

   "I hope so," Lestrange said, and bowed away.

   Soon after he left, Georgiana slumped on the sofa.

   Before she could catch her breath, the door opened again.

   "Can the lounge be used as it should!" Georgiana roared.

"Oh, do you think halftime is really a break for us?" Charlotte said, "When your head is buzzing and you're sick, you have to listen to the coach. roaring, it was like hearing someone tell you to get up and go to work the next day of a hangover."

   "It sucks." Georgiana swears.

"Yeah, it sucks." Charlotte sat down in front of Georgiana "I told him you didn't win because if you told me you were Hell's Gate and I wouldn't sleep with you Yes, what clever mouse have you seen touch a bait that looks delicious."

   "He'll be happier if you say that," said Georgiana.

   "I had a good night except he took me as a gamble..."

  Georgianna covered her ears.

"What if you don't? Cry so hard?" Charlotte snapped, "If you fall, your opponent won't help you up, but will beat you until you can't stand up again, even if you lose your life, so don't Fall to the ground and don't cry!"

  Georgianna did not speak.

   "I'm not going to be a boxer forever, I'm going to retire as a coach one day." Charlotte took a cigarette out of her handbag. "Look, that's what it feels like to listen to the coach at halftime."

"I also want!"

   "Good girls can't smoke."

  Georgianna didn't care so much. She took one from Charlotte's cigarette case and lit it with magic. Charlotte didn't show much fuss and was smoking calmly.

   "The world has never been fair." Charlotte said calmly, "We can only live by the rules. As long as the rules are still there, we can't continue to pursue even if we fall to the ground."

   "Do you want to teach that 'Gate of Hell' a lesson?" Georgiana said fiercely, "I know a lot of curses that can't kill people, but can make people uncomfortable."

   Charlotte sneered "He didn't win again."

   "You think that's it?"

   Charlotte suddenly approached Georgiana. "Do you think he will propose to me?"

  Georgianna's eyes widened.

   Charlotte leaned against the sofa and laughed cynically.

   "Don't you feel sick?" asked Georgiana.

   "No," Charlotte said firmly.

   She didn't know what to say. She should have less of a relationship with such a person, but Charlotte didn't seem to be reconciled and wanted to force her way.

   "When someone found out that I was his mistress, several members of the engineering team approached me, hoping that I could introduce them to the Count and take over the construction of the new theater." Charlotte said.

  Georgianna did not speak.

   "And flowers, gifts, you know, things that would please a girl, but the most exaggerated thing is that he met my father."

"what?"

   "In addition to fast horses, there are people who like fast cars."

   "You think he likes you?" asked Georgiana.

   "He just didn't win." Charlotte said nonchalantly. "This time he wants me to know who he is."

  Georgianna soon finds that all the fascination she had just accumulated for "Gate of Hell" because of the extravagance and novelty spectacle had all but vanished.

   "It was a magical night, until the moment the 'bet' was revealed." Charlotte said softly, "Did you ever feel that way?"

   Charlotte is already like this, and Georgiana is not going to put salt in her wound.

   "He gave you jewelry?" asked Georgiana.

   "Don't mention this!" Charlotte shook her finger "I don't want to argue with you over this issue."

  Georgianna was confused.

   "Let's talk about Emma." Charlotte smiled. "This topic is safe for us all."
