419 Chapter 73, LAST END
fifty years later///
The sun was gradually setting by the seaside, the silver-haired girl watched the subway leave the station, she just wanted to go back to the coffee shop to take a rest. But he found a familiar figure standing opposite the railway, a girl with short chestnut hair.
The chestnut-haired girl was wearing a black windbreaker, high boots, and her hair was neatly combed behind her ears. At this moment, she was putting her hands in her pockets, looking at her from a distance across the railroad track.
When the silver-haired girl saw her, she froze for a moment, then jumped up excitedly, waved her arms and shouted at her, "Miranda!!"
While shouting, she rushed across the railway, came to the chestnut-haired girl, and hugged her without hesitation.
Miranda's body was stiff, but after being hugged for a while, her body slowly relaxed. She buried her head in Aglaia's long silver hair, stroked her back, and sighed softly: "Aya, It's been a long time, it's just... too incredible."
Hugging and hugging, Aglaia felt a little confused. She let go of Miranda and looked at her in amazement: "Why are you here? You are still so young. I thought...you are in your sixties. "
"That's a long story."
Miranda touched the tip of her nose and smiled, "However, if I'm sixty, you'll be over sixty too."
Aglea noticed something.
"No, why did you come here right after Hoffa left?"
She said in a daze, "What a coincidence?"
Ravenclaw's cleverness immediately made her aware that things were not normal.
"No, no, you didn't come before, you didn't come here, you seem to be waiting for me here, and you're still so young, don't tell me you started from fifty years ago."
She gasped and looked at Miranda.
Miranda was silent.
She let go of Miranda's arm and looked around, but she didn't see that familiar figure. A certain kind of great anxiety seized her heart instantly.
"Where's Hoffa, isn't he with you?" she asked.
Miranda was silent for a moment, then lowered her head and said, "He's dead."
Aglaia was stunned, and the blood on her face faded away.
"To die with Sylby."
Miranda took a deep breath and said calmly: "He maintained this timeline so that I can see you."
Hearing this, Aglaia took two steps back, leaned against the telephone pole and rubbed her head, her lips parted slightly, not knowing what to say for a while. I just feel dizzy, my legs are weak, and I can hardly stand up.
Miranda couldn't bear it, she took two steps forward, hugged Aglaia, and kissed her forehead lightly. However, the girl in her arms was cold all over, as if all her vitality had been sucked away.
Suddenly she pushed Miranda away and ran along the tracks towards the train that disappeared on the horizon.
Miranda saw her suddenly running like crazy, so she couldn't help but stepped forward and pulled her hard.
"Why didn't you come sooner! Why didn't you show up sooner!"
Aglaia grabbed Miranda's arm, pointed at the disappearing train incoherently, and said desperately, "If you were earlier, if you were earlier."
"Aya, that's impossible. It's all predestined."
Miranda said with a blunt expression.
"No! This should not be his fate!"
Aglaia said firmly: "He promised me, he promised me that he would come back!"
Miranda bit her lower lip for a while, then slowly let go. She stretched her hand into her chest with difficulty, and after a long pause, she made up her mind.
"He asked me to give this to you."
Miranda took out a pendant box from her chest, and then she slowly opened it, revealing the crystal clear heart stone hidden inside. She took out the crystal clear heart stone, put it in Aglaia's hand, and said: "Even if the gods personally act, even if it is the calculation of the ultimate wizard, even if it is decades of daily life, even if it is all family, friendship and rights Status and wealth can't stop him from forgetting you, even at the last moment before dying, he still wants to see you."
"Now, this stone is yours. It has always belonged to you, and I have returned it to its original owner." Miranda said with a gloomy expression.
Aglaia looked at the stone in her palm, and in a split second, she knew what it was. The intention in that stone was so strong that just holding it could remind her of the sunny afternoon at Hogwarts. The three of them Sitting on the grass together drinking juice and flying a kite, I remembered the three of us sitting in front of the fireplace and playing chess in the common room on winter nights, I remembered the butterbeer in Hogsmeade in autumn, I remembered walking and chatting near the Forbidden Forest when the snow thawed in early spring.
"Hoffa, Hoffa"
She pressed the heart stone to her heart, and let out a long breath.
Then, Aglaia actually laughed out, smiling so happily.
I completely forgot how painful I was just now.
Miranda couldn't understand seeing that Aglaia was only sad for a few seconds and didn't feel sad. But she felt that she didn't owe Hoffa anything anymore. At this moment, she just wanted to find a bar and get drunk alone, and then fell asleep without thinking about anything.
"I'm leaving, Aglaia."
Miranda said lightly.
"where are you going?"
Aglaia asked easily while holding the heart stone.
"I want to do something Ravenclaw likes to do, who knows, maybe have fun in a strip club, maybe study Muggle technology fifty years later. She shrugged indifferently, I'm done I have followed his orders, and I have nothing to do."
"Miranda, what's wrong with you?" Aglaia took Miranda's hand with concern.
Miranda shook her head, "I don't know, Aya, I don't know what all these years are for. I don't know anything anymore, what is the meaning of his existence, I don't know what he means to me, I just want a drink, sorry, don't ask me any more questions, I don't know anything anymore."
Aglaia didn't let go, she held her companion's hand tightly, and said softly, "Miranda, you've already walked so far, you don't mind walking a few more steps."
"Where else can I go?"
"Go to my house. My house has been abandoned for a long time. I want someone to live with me." Aglaia looked into Miranda's eyes and said seriously, "I want to have a home."
But Miranda shook her head with a gloomy expression: "I will go, maybe, don't ask me the specific time. I want to travel far away alone. Maybe one day I will come back and live with you, but not now. "
"I know what you're thinking, Miranda, we could go on a trip together too. But you don't want to do something with me before you go."
"do what?"
Aglaia raised the heart stone in her hand, smiled sideways and said, "For example, to shape a body for a pure heart."
Miranda was stunned for a moment, and then her complexion changed drastically. She finally understood why the distraught Aglaia immediately turned from grief to joy after seeing the heart stone. She thought of all kinds of unimaginable legends in the magical world. She also thought of what her grandfather once told her - "As long as you find the heart stone, magic and miracles will appear."
But she has been through so much, and she still can't believe it.
"You can? Really??"
"No one knows how to make a human body better than I do."
Aglaia said confidently, "Believe me, you don't know how many bodies I have cultivated. It might fill up the entire English Channel, or maybe the Atlantic Ocean."
"Really? But Hoffa is dead." Miranda still couldn't believe it.
"It seems that his heart does not belong to the god of death."
Aglaia held the heart stone and said with a smile: "Come on, let's get him out."
Milanfa's eyes were red, she nodded vigorously, and took Aglaia's arm. As the sun was setting, the two girls walked further and further away arm in arm along the sunshine of the street.
"Miranda, tell me, what should we make him look like? The version with gray hair and golden eyes or the version with black hair and black eyes."
"What do you think, I think both are pretty good. But the golden-eyed one is too ostentatious, after all, he is not young."
"I quite like when he has golden eyes, like a young boy. He is innocent and sharp, and the one with black hair is too low-key."
"Can't both?"
"Haha, that depends on his ability."
Hoffa felt as if he had slept for a long time, and it seemed that he only slept for a moment. Unlike the previous sleep, those turbulent dreams finally subsided. No torments of desire, no delusional fantasies. Sleeping like a baby, and this is the first time he has experienced such a dreamless sleep in a long time, he very much hopes that this moment can last forever.
It's a pity that no matter how sweetly you sleep, you will wake up one day.
On this day, he woke up from the unknown and chaotic world as before. In front of my eyes was a bubbling and boiling liquid, the liquid was transparent blue and very warm. He looked at his clean hands, feeling something was wrong in a trance.
So he floated up from the liquid, and it turned out that he was soaking naked in a huge cauldron.
Not far from the bubbling cauldron, a silver-haired girl was pounding medicinal materials with a stone mortar by the window. She was wearing blue short shorts, a white loose shirt, and her long silver hair was tied into a bun behind her head, adding a touch of maturity to her youthful appearance. The cool sea breeze from the Leige Peninsula blows the thin gauze curtain and caresses her back, and the sun is covering the ground like gold.
Just as I was watching, a girl with chestnut hair pushed open the door of the room. She was wearing a black jacket, lined with a black cropped T-shirt, thick-soled Martin shoes, and belted motorcycle pants. Compared with the appearance in her memory, she took off her glasses, but With more black earrings, it looks even cooler.
Miranda walked in with a plate of unknown herbs. As soon as he entered the door, the plate of medicinal materials fell to the ground with a bang and scattered all over the place. She covered her mouth, pointed at the cauldron and shouted in surprise, "Look! Aglaia, he's awake."
Aglaia turned her head, and she saw the young boy with his head popping out of the cauldron, his blue eyes narrowed slightly, she sat at the table, put her chin on her cheek and said with a smile: "Oh~ isn't this who~ eh? Mr. Legend , this time you won't be able to escape~"
Hoffa looked at the two girls with a bright smile on his face.
