"She's fine, she's been locked up." The middle-aged man in a black robe took off his mask, and looked at his son with a pair of blue eyes.

"Theo..."

He whispered his son's name, and Theodore quickly wrote something on the parchment, desperately suppressing his inner doubts.He shouldn't be asking these things.

"Theo, I have to warn you that you'd better stay away from her." Old Nott sighed. "The Dark Lord didn't kill her, he didn't torture her. comminicate."

"This is considered imprisonment." Theodore clenched the pen in his hand a little and poked a hole in the parchment.

"She's with a stranger, or she's one of us," Knott Sr. said, "I don't know what the future holds, but you mustn't join this mess."

"I've been brought into this game..." Theodore's eyes were very cold, looking at his arm. "I do not have any choice."

Back when his father's mistake in the Department of Mysteries had failed to keep the Erglints, the Dark Lord had branded his only son as punishment for old Nott.

Likewise, Draco Malfoy.

Did he and Anne Panik have gone the other way?

How long has it been since he said a word to her?Since the accidental accident last time, it seems that he is not the only one suffering. Sorry, Theodore Nott has fallen into the abyss, and there is no turning back.

He stood silently outside the window, looking at the endless night, the bloodshot eyes in his blue eyes were ferocious and terrifying.

…………

This summer vacation was the most painful summer vacation that Eric had ever had. Anne just disappeared suddenly, and no news was published in the "Daily Prophet".

Please, how could such a nuisance like her disappear!

He was lying on the sofa like a dead body, staring at an empty wall in a daze, his mind was full of images of him and Annie together, whether it was mischief together when they were young, or the fights and quarrels when they grew up, the memories are especially precious now .

But now, he didn't even have a picture of Annie.He picked up the pen again and recorded today's content in the diary.

"July41996

DearAmy

I hope you come home."

The drawer was already full of letters he had written to Amy, but none of them could be mailed.

Next time, maybe next time when she came back, he would show his heart, no matter how it ended.

.........

Regarding Anne's mysterious disappearance, Zabini's house strictly forbids discussing this topic. Blaise is in a bad mood, and Nalinda, as a mother, can see it.

"The Ministry of Magic has also sent support." Nalinda could only comfort Blaise in this way, "She will be fine."

"Will she be like Dad and never come back?" Blaise's brown eyes looked at Nalinda, who held her son in her arms, "No."

In such a good summer, the beach scenery near Zabini Mansion is so charming, but it is more dull and solemn than the sea in winter.

"You're in love with this kid, right?" Nalinda stroked Blaise's head, "You've been a different person since your father left, and now, I'm glad you're back with me." good."

"It's empty here." Blaise pointed to his chest. For some reason, he felt that something was missing in his life.

He misses her so much who treats him as a friend. They can make each other happy and make each other's lives full of color.He was too afraid of returning to that gray life again.

The day when I watched the sunrise with her seemed like yesterday.

…………

Shelby's impression of his sister Anne is very average. When he was growing up, Anne either attended Hogwarts or "tortured" him with his cousin Eric. It's a lot quieter at home.

He had been to Annie's room, and it was a mess. Jane, who used to help Annie tidy up all day long, chose to keep the room as it was for some reason.

Shelby knew that Janie did this just to deceive herself, thinking that Annie hadn't disappeared, she had just gone out.

Jenny can't be affected by her emotions, she is struggling every day, she needs to take care of Shelby, and she needs to support the family.

But whenever Shelby recalled her sister's messy room, she wanted to rush in and clean it up, which he did.When Jane saw it, Shelby was a little panicked.

"At least let her live in a clean room when she comes back."

This sentence is like the last straw that crushes a wife and mother. Janie hugged Shelby and cried, venting out all the emotions she had suppressed for more than a month. Shelby could only pat mother's back.

-----------------

Also depressed was No. 12, Grimmauld Place. Sirius was with members of the Order of the Phoenix. Almost everyone looked bad, but Snape was calm.

"We have to rescue her. What kind of dangerous things will happen to an underage wizard? You know the tactics of the Death Eaters." Sirius Black propped his hands on the long table, "Damn it..." He He hammered the table angrily, and Kreacher, who was eavesdropping at the stairs, screamed, and then cursed Sirius.

"I will never forget that the Death Eaters will never be kind to a little wizard. The longer the time drags on, the more dangerous Anne Panick will become. We have made a three-day plan, and we will leave the day after tomorrow at the latest. said Arthur, "we all owe her father a debt."

"Yes." Although Sirius hated to admit that he was indirectly saved by William Panik, it was now a fact.

"You also saw what Bailey Panick looked like that day. He no longer believes us. We don't know his position, but he will definitely not defect to Voldemort's camp." Kingsley Shaker said , "Now we have to prepare for the worst, what if Anne Panik dies?"

For a moment, everyone was silent, especially Sirius. He was the person in the Order of the Phoenix who had seen Anne the most times. That girl was still so young, she shouldn't have died like this.

"The children are also very worried. Miss Granger's injury has not yet healed. Harry and the others have been thinking about saving the little girl all day. We took him to the Burrow. I think Ron and Harry can enlighten each other."

"Arthur, you're doing well," Sirius said.

"If the Dark Lord wanted to kill her, he would have done it in the Department of Mysteries long ago. There is no need to capture her and kill her." Snape said with a sneer, "so she must be safe now."

At least to the extent he knew it, Anne Panick had just been locked in a room by the Dark Lord, and couldn't come in and out at will.But Snape has rarely contacted Voldemort recently, and Voldemort issued a ban prohibiting any Death Eater from speaking too much with Anne Panik.

The reason for this seems to be clearer to Petrov and Barty Jr. Both of them are guarding a secret, a secret that only they and Voldemort know.

Heavy footsteps sounded in the porch, Dumbledore's figure appeared in front of everyone's eyes, Sirius stood up and hugged Dumbledore.

Dumbledore's piercing blue eyes scanned everyone in the meeting. "We will save that child."

"Dumbledore!" Tonks looked at him in surprise.

"I will also save my niece!" Bailey Panik followed closely behind Dumbledore, "This does not mean that I will trust you, the more people there are, the better the chances of winning."

"Bailey, we are very grateful for what William has done. On the other side of Asia, led by the Chinese Ministry of Magic, they also used ancient enchantment spells to protect themselves. Voldemort's plan to infiltrate Asia has come to naught." Dumbledore said "Mr. Zhu from China is also willing to join our rescue."

Mr. Zhu was none other than Zhu Peiqi's father. He had several friendships with William. He heard that his daughter was in trouble, and his own daughter Zhu Peiqi was also worried all day long.

"Thank you for your help, sir." Bai said to Mr. Zhu in Chinese.

.........

Riddle House

"Have they come yet?" Voldemort played with the wand in his hand, and several Death Eaters fell on the ground in fear, "Dum... Dumbledore is here too... We really..."

"Just put on a show, tell Bella, and let her keep a good balance."

"Yes, my master." After saying that, they staggered out.

Riddle lingered in the hall, "Should I let her out now? Then how do I explain to her that the Order of the Phoenix came to rescue her?"

"She is not "Annie Panick", she is just Annie. In order to stabilize people's hearts and allow the Panik family to continue to be used by them and serve them, that's why they want to take their daughter back. As for "Annie How did Panik” die in the first place? It can only be blamed on the Order of the Phoenix for letting William Panik come out to take the place of the dead ghost. The poor little girl “Annie Panik” sacrificed her life to save her father. Panik’s family is just an abandoned son of the Order of the Phoenix. , is a victim."

"Another bizarre lie," Riddle said.

"It's just the truth. The Order of the Phoenix absorbs people who don't know to work for them. Those poor members will always suffer, not Dumbledore. The Panick House is such an example." Voldemort laughed, and the laughter echoed, "Am I wrong?"

Riddle left the hall and came to Anne's room. He knocked on the door. Anne was reading a book and learning about Hogwarts.

"Annie, they're here for you." Riddle said softly, "It's "Annie Panick"'s family."

"Her family doesn't know she's dead, maybe I can play that role." Anne turned a page, "Do I need to go back with them?"

"Yes." Riddle told her what Voldemort said, and Anne didn't speak, just turned another page of the book.

"Dumbledore himself didn't take into account the interests of wizards. The two forces have been fighting, and many people have been sacrificed in the middle. Panik is a victim. I hate Dumbledore's hypocritical approach, taking others' for his own shield."

Riddle smiled, and it seemed that the nearly a week of hard work was not in vain.She already hated Dumbledore.

You know, it is easy to draw various images on a piece of white paper.

Besides, Anne still believed him so much.

"Annie, you have to go back, on the one hand to comfort the Panick family, on the other hand, we have to stop Dumbledore's plot, as you saw last time, he doesn't intend to let us go, he even wants to destroy my soul. "Riddle grabbed Anne's shoulder and said.

"Your hands... are no longer cold." Anne looked at Riddle and said, "I will not let Dumbledore succeed, I will protect you."

"Tom."

Riddle hugged her, even though the name made him uncomfortable, it also represented that she had completely trusted him.However, a voice kept ringing in his head, "When it's done, she must die like Harry Potter...you do it yourself."

you do it yourself...

How long had Tom Riddle not felt warm? He greedily tried to get more heat from Anne's body, but his reason told him that they had to leave.Putting on her robe, Annie ran quickly in the forest with her wand, looking back at the Riddle Mansion from time to time, the place where she woke up.

Annie took the diary and ran to the place where the Order of the Phoenix was fighting the Death Eaters. The Death Eaters nodded to each other and escaped from the woods by changing shape.Sirius gasped, "Damn...they got away!"

"Annie may be there." Bailey pointed to the old house on the hill.

Annie in the distance took a deep breath, and started running wildly again, casting a few empty spells behind her back from time to time, pretending to be tripping over a stone and rolling down the mountainside.This movement attracted the attention of the Order of the Phoenix.

"Is there someone there, is it a Death Eater?" Tonks raised his wand, protecting Lupine behind him.

"Yes...it's Annie!" Bailey rushed up, ran a few hundred meters, and helped Annie who had fallen down. Annie gasped and said tearfully, "I...I escaped." After finishing speaking, she said Buried in Bailey's arms crying loudly.

"Don't be afraid, uncle is late, sorry." He held Annie's thin face in his hands, "They didn't do anything to you, did they?"

Annie didn't know why, maybe this body was causing trouble, a sense of intimacy and grievance surged like a sea, she shook her head, tears flowed uncontrollably.

"I will never let them hurt you again, they will pay the price, and we will never care about these things from now on, okay? When your father wakes up, we will leave England." He hugged Annie and looked back at Members of the Order of the Phoenix, "My niece has returned and I will bring her home."

"It's good that she comes back." Sirius finally let go of the stone hanging in his heart.

"Wait, kid." Dumbledore stood up and looked directly at Annie. "How did you escape?"

This question made Anne's hostility towards Dumbledore even more serious.He really couldn't believe that she escaped so easily.

Anne just buried herself in Bailey's arms and cried louder. Bailey looked at Dumbledore, "Do you think she can answer your question like this? We just want to go home now, I think Anne would like to see her very much." parents."

Dumbledore nodded, "I think Miss Panik will answer my questions after school starts, and I believe she will also be willing to return to Hogwarts to study."

"It depends on what she thinks." After Bailey finished speaking, he took Annie back home after Apparating.

Jenny, who was mopping the floor, had disheveled hair, and her heavy dark circles looked like she hadn't slept well for a long time.

"Mother, I'm back."

Seeing Annie who came back, Jane dropped the mop on the ground. She sniffed, hugged Annie and wept bitterly.Annie knew she was not her real daughter, but this body must have had a deep affection for its mother.

Sorry, it wasn't your daughter who came back.
