Florette was stunned for a moment, when she was talking about what happened just now, Fleur's attitude towards Danqi was obviously different.He looked at the two of them suspiciously, and then took out a copy of < witch from his school bag, you can't resist the > of love."
This tournament has mixed too much water with the selection of the Warriors," Benelli touched his face, "Not only did Crouch do something to Harry, but Boyle was weak from his resume, but I don't know how he was also selected - Yves, why do you have this kind of book in your bag!"
”Flolet was silent, looking like a melancholy and melancholy troubadour.Danqi took Benelli's words: "Yes, Bruce has a problem, which anyone with a discerning eye can see - the problem is that we know too little about their family's secrets, and Vincent is still asleep, I really don't know what's wrong."
Librarianship simply can't find the right curse, or disease, or whatever. ”Danqi and Benelli now seem more irritable because they have been worried for a long time."
The newspaper only said that he had been struck by Crouch Jr.'
s spell, but Madam Pomfrey secretly told us that it was an old disease......
Yves, do you know of any vicious spells that can cause this?
”Benelli asked.Flolet blew her bangs on her forehead and picked up a rather large crucible and played with it: "Reminder: you're talking about this topic more than you're discussing potion recipes.Wake up, there are many curses that cause death, and there are even more curses that can cause a long period of coma, even the school doctor, Madam Pomfrey, it is normal not to know the reason. ”Flolet leaned back in her chair and fastened the cauldron to her head, and her voice became buzzing: "So now I have to resign myself to fate."
I suggest you focus on your own business.And I always feel that this matter has nothing to do with Crouch, he has been in prison for so many years, and he only cares about infiltrating Hogwarts when he comes out, how can he have the opportunity to learn unknown side magic?
Maybe Vincent's research freak did something and stunned himself. ”Benelli and Danki know better, they know that Vincent Jr. and his own mother have experienced revenge from birth to death, and it seems that it is indeed impossible to be hit by a little Crouch with little combat experience......
The two men looked at each other, and suddenly felt that Flolet's statement seemed to make sense.Meanwhile, Fleur had just seen the list Snape had thrown down and seemed to find it amusing, beckoning her friends to make potions together while the three Ravenclaws were discussing Vincent."
This recipe is quite bold...... she added a little more Pradoru grass leaves, "maybe we should add some sensitive/sensitive?"
”Great wizards are never short of whimsical explorations.So she pulled out a hair of her own and threw it in.The three Ravenclaws who were discussing various stun-inducing spells quickly turned around: "Stop, that will ......"
The cauldron exploded silently.“…… Explosive. ”"Who cast the Targeted Mute Charm here after Snape left?
I'll raise my hand first. ”Flolet lowered the potion-coated cauldron."
I did, too."
Benelli raised his hand and laughed."
We can't always let the professor get angry, can we?"
Fleur's friend also raised her hand, and she calmly turned her wand in the face of everyone's strange gaze: "Your potions teacher just said that you will punish everyone for confinement......
How can a potion experiment not explode?
That only shows that the experimenter is conformist. ”Danqi didn't raise his hand, he said, "I removed the air from the doors, windows and walls. ”Fleur frowned behind the unresolved armor spell and said, "I didn't see any materials that contradicted it." ”She thought for a while, and then said arrogantly: "The ratio of unicorn mushroom, cannibal fungus and mandora leaf terrier just now satisfies the fourth formula!"
This does not increase sensitivity/sensitivity.I was negligent. ”Flolet covered her face with her hands wistfully: "Oh, it took her three seconds to realize this......
Maybe girls are really better suited to potions......"
The author has something to say: in the end, the two gangs didn't fight (⊙o⊙)!
The duel ended without a hitch.In the next chapter, go back to Grimaud to continue the Christmas chapter.Chapter 59: Merry Christmas Continued: "So, are you planning to spend Christmas here?"
Instead of, say, sitting for a while and going back to school, or something?
”Sirius said."
Well, yes, speaking of which......
I woke up, and then spent the night at school, and then Professor Flitwick gave me a note from Dumbledore's Spell of Loyalty?
— and then I came over and was thrown straight into that cubicle. ”I looked down and noticed the Black family crest on the silver goblet: there were two five-pointed stars, and I instantly remembered the pattern I had just touched on that door panel."
Maybe it's a confinement chamber or something?"
I guessed."
Oh, maybe," Sirius said, not very interested in the topic of how much seclusion there was in his own house, while trying to mitigate the reproach in his tone, "as for falling outside of the fireplace—I don't know what's wrong with the old house's Floo network......
But it's not surprising that it's broken, after all, it's been so many years......
Vincent, you should have let us know before you came.Of course, the sudden appearance was indeed a surprise......
"I put down my glass:" Professor Flitwick handed over several messages before coming, but there was no reply.We thought you were up to something.Still, I think I know what's wrong with your house. ”As soon as I looked up, I saw Clicker by the door describing a sneaky walk towards the stairs (obviously eavesdropping) - did it look like it was about to go to the Traitor Division?
I watched Krichet disappear around the bend, then said succinctly, "This guy just burned my wand."
Looks like I'll have to buy another one. ”Then I realized that my tone was a bit like a complaint.Sirius and Lupin looked at each other, and then the former gritted his teeth and muttered "Cricht" and grabbed his wand and strode in the direction Krichet had left, Lupin and I following closely.We made our way to the messy living room, where Sirius was asking Creech what the hell had been done.Crouch hunched and staggered as he tried to salvage anything of value from the mess in the living room.Judging by the many ornaments on the side of the tablecloth with a clean embroidered family pattern, it has already completed a small part of its task during the time we have just spoken."
What are you doing?"
Sirius said coldly."
What are you going to do with all that garbage—oh, yes, I'm going to throw them all away."
As he spoke, he glanced up at the silver-green tablecloth that neatly arranged many of the Black family's collections.Crichhe was grabbing a pendant from the wall, and when he saw Sirius' threatening eyes, he screamed loudly and shifted to the tablecloth, using his thin body to make a blocking pose: "No, the young master can't throw them away!"
…… It's a Black family thing!
…… Blasphemy, this is blasphemy!
”It only dared to glance at Sirius out of the corner of its eye to prevent it from rising, and its large, outward-protruding eyes stared at me with firmness and hatred, a look that made me feel that it had just burned my wand and that it had really shown mercy.Cricht's indignant and hysterical appearance, combined with his appearance, which is not even beautiful among house-elves, reminds me of Quasimodo, the ugly and abominable Quasimodo of Hugo, but this elf does not have the purity and beauty of the bell-ringer......

Oh, that's really debatable.Sirius didn't look further at the pile, threatening, "I'm not interested in your—tell me what good you've done behind my back this morning." ”Kricher breathed a sigh of relief at its pile of treasures, then tried his best to make an innocent gesture, staring at Sirius's shoes and saying slowly, "This morning?
What did Kreacher do this morning......
Krichet got up, dusted the family tree, and then cleaned the most precious collection in the Black house, which was the glory of the family......
"It gushed on every detail of what it was doing, and Sirius stared at it and rambled on its nonsense, but perhaps by the way figuring out what else needed to be thrown away in the house......
Krichet realized this immediately, and it closed its mouth tightly and swept it around with its creepy eyeballs, and I met its gaze from the reflection of the glass on the floor.Can't you just look at people well?
This guy has a phobia of eye contact or something."
Oh, Master Sirius......"
Kricher said in a hoarse voice, "Kricher thought, it understood what Master Sirius was talking about.Is it about refusing to let this little cub of filthy blood into this house?
”The little cub of the filthy bloodline looked at it with a blank face.Sirius rolled his eyes at the wording, then got to the point: "Aha, you've done something to the fireplace."
I can't do anything bad without you......
I don't bother to care what that cramped cubicle is all about—so, are you determined to mess with me?
”Crouch bowed to the ground and pressed his long, limp nose completely to the floor ("Uh-oh!
”I twitched the corners of my mouth).Its respectful tone was full of disobedience to Sirius: "Master told Krichet not to let him/be/disturbed. ”"I was talking to you.Don't you understand that I mean to be interfered with by you?
”Sirius said a little grumpy."
But the young master didn't say that at the time."
Krichet showed irrepressible pride, and at the same time, because of his status, he had to show that he was very loyal, and I was tired of it."
Kricher has to think about every aspect for the sake of his master.""
So all you have to do is misinterpret orders and do what you want?"
Sirius glared at it in disgust."
The master's orders are everything to Kricher."
Kricher dodged the question."
Wait," Lupin suddenly interjected, "Verbal loopholes, if you want to find them, will not be too few."
Cricht, have you ever been out of this house?
Have you told others about the things in the society?
”Kricher stared down at the floor with innocent eyes, as if Lupin's questioning was just a small piece of meaningless rumor."
Answer him."
Sirius commanded solemnly.Krichet gave Lupin a vicious look, then looked away as if insulted, and said insincerely, "Haven't." ”Anyone can hear a silent yet sentence that follows it.Sirius brushed the hair from his ear with his left hand, turned back to Lupin, and said, "Huh?
Do you think I have a good reason to cut off its head right now?
”Lupin sighed, and was about to say something when Sirius suddenly said, "Do you have my permission, elf?"
”—Criche slipped the locket in his pocket while Sirius wasn't staring at it, then rolled up the tablecloth at his feet, curled up as best he could, and walked towards the door.Sirius said grimly, "It's one thing for you to go and stick yourself to the board, it's another to get that garbage back to the nest and hide it—leave it behind." ”Krichet seemed to want to rub it off, but Sirius's command was the equivalent of a spell to it, and it let go of its hand with a swipe."
And the pockets—I've finally seen how your head processes my commands."
He said in an eye-opening tone.Krichet clutched his pockets, twitching comically, as if he was fighting with some unseen person over what was in his pocket."
Take out what you just had hidden in your pocket."
Sirius added impatiently.Cricket seemed to smoke the epilepsy, but in the end he took out the locket and offered it with both hands.The locket was the size of an egg, an ornate S, made of small emeralds - it was a Slytherin locket, no doubt.Maybe it's my preconceived notions, but in my opinion, it exudes a cold and evil vibe.Sirius raised an eyebrow and reached for it.Unexpectedly, Krichet shouted, "No, this is not okay.Krichet did not allow others to take it. ”Then it twisted all over, as if fighting, and then with a thud, disappeared into the living room.The author has something to say: to explain, it feels like the part of Hogwarts should be more abrupt.In fact, Danqi didn't like Bruce, and then deceived Elaine according to the information he obtained, and pointed out euphemistically: "You are simply an embroidered pillow and a straw bag."
Defeating the dragon is purely blind. ”Then everyone didn't have much intention of fighting, and the duel fell through.Fleur sensitively thinks that Bruce has done something that can be sealed, and then follows them to the Potions classroom to help Benelli configure the thinking generic potion.Then Fleur fried the pan.Such..Today's word count is relatively small.Because I think it's cool to break hereXD Chapter 60 Merry Christmas Continuation Crisser hasn't been back for a long time.Sirius kept shouting its name in the house, its tongue was about to be knotted, but the elf didn't show up."
I can't believe I've planted a heel on a house-elf—that locket is something special," Sirius said, rubbing his hair, looking rather distraught, "Crice had just vanished—directly and resolutely disobeying his master's orders.I've never heard of a house-elf being able to defy orders to such an extent!
”"I suppose you'll have to repeat the necessary commands again and without loopholes, Sirius, just in case the leak is made."
Lupin's face was also a little gloomy, and he said, "It's never been a month since we've been discussing things.It chose not to come back, but it can certainly hear your orders. ”Sirius frowned, walking back and forth on the wooden floor covered with a thick layer of wall dregs, muttering a long list of well-thought-out and unassailable orders, but we weren't sure if Kreacher would obey it—if it could escape and refuse to return, it might as well be ruthless and refuse one more order, and the Order of the Phoenix would be largely lost.And that locket......
There's one more thing I'm worried about, and that's the Slytherin locket that looks like a Horcrux - Merlin bless, hopefully nothing will go wrong here, and half of Harry's off-campus career will revolve around this three years later.If the locket is not in place right now......
Oh hell.I thought Sirius' exoneration was the limit of what chaos could do.Unexpectedly, now I have almost lost one locket and one elf.Locket!
Maybe I shouldn't have just stood stupidly and grabbed it?
Oh oh oh, damn plot change.…… When it was time for lunch, we gave up waiting in the living room for Kricher to reappear at some point, and by the way, we studied the little dark room where I had just come to the house."
It's a confinement cell."
Sirius narrowed his eyes, "I remember my dear grandfather telling us about the day he was punished to stand inside.Later, this form of corporal punishment was abandoned because it was too harsh – they were more inclined to mental punishment and abuse. ”"Living with a bunch of vaunted purebloods was like going to jail — and I was able to get clean even in Azkaban."
With a wave of his wand, he conjured up a lot of red bricks to build the cramped cell tightly.We turned on the radio at lunch, and the radio station, which normally only broadcasts prosaic domestic news that is better than nothing, turned out to be talking about France, something that has been going on in a recent vehement.“…… Things are kept secret, not made public.Until now, a day and a month later, the relevant personnel could not resist the pressure and finally moved the case up, and the matter entered the public eye."

Explosive news about the Boyle family, one of France's well-known pure-blood families.On the 23rd of last month, an intruder broke into the heavily defended Boyle mansion and committed a burglary.According to an analysis of the scene, the burglars were killed after being bumped into by the homekeeper, Richard, and were also severely injured themselves, and two hours later appeared at the tryst of Douglas Boyle, known as Helen's husband, and a romantic star, and assassinated him in his bed.The Boyle family published a list of the stolen items, promising a large sum of money, hoping that those in the know would provide clues: the mirror, the precious porcelain stone that was once used to replicate it, is now worthless because it no longer exists; A long box, about the width and height of a wand box, one-third the length, wrapped in the coat of arms of the Boyle family, representing the spoils of a brilliant victory. ”I stopped eating, hesitated, reached into my pocket and pulled out the brown paper wrapped around the box that Bruce had returned to me, and then carefully examined the Boyle family crest that I hadn't looked at seriously in the morning.There's a little word on it: loot.Make it clear the nature of what this package once contained.Lupin and Sirius looked over and their eyes fell on the ornamentation on the vellum in my hand."
Link to the events below, since that unscrupulous witch ...... seventeen years ago," the announcer's voice echoed over the silent table."
This was brought to me this morning."
I explained, and then I saw the two of them breathe a sigh of relief - it must have been tiring to always worry that the little cub next to me was a perverted murderer and had to be careful not to hurt the cub's self-esteem."
Who?"
I paused and told them were Bruce.I remember that the night we saw him being helped into Beauxbatons' carriage, but I didn't say it.Lupin and Sirius looked at each other, and I refilled myself with a drink, saying, "I don't know him well at all, and I don't have much friendship. ”Sirius then commented, "He does have a motive. ”I remembered Elaine's anxious and reluctant to say anything after Bruce left Hogwarts suddenly.Now it seemed that she probably knew roughly what Bruce was trying to do.The question is, when I turn the fork in my hand, did he go out to kill people and help me get the crystal box back by the way, or is it the other way around?
Or kill two birds with one stone?
Also, what's the point of risking to run close to the master's study to steal the mirror under the spell?
I took the crystal case out of my bag, and noticed Sirius's expression, and found that he didn't recognize it that night, the only night he and Helen had been on the fireplace, and that they had both shot it down with magic.I didn't try to recall this memory of him, and seeing that he didn't remember it, and didn't say much, I took out the glass bottle containing Helen's memories from the crystal case, and explained to them that it was Helen's, rubbing the mouth of the bottle lightly with my thumb - last time I hadn't finished watching her passion with Sirius was dragged out by Malfoy overnight, and I didn't know what the memories were talking about."
Vincent," Sirius called me out of my trance, "it's Christmas Eve, so don't think about all those crazy things—maybe we can decorate the Christmas tree after we're done?"
”"Where are you going to put the tree?"
Lupin suddenly interjected."
Of course, it's in the living room, where else can I put it......
Oh no, I realize, we still have to clean the living room with one of the walls blown off before we can get the Christmas tree in place - by the way, it's not a reproach, Vincent, you can blow up this house as you like!
”Sirius happily added.I am a peaceful person.I said silently.It's not hard for a wizard to get a good-looking, lush pine tree, and it's not a big problem to decorate it.After eating relaxedly, we still didn't see Crichet, and we fell into a little upset again.Then he kept this mentality to decorate the pine tree, and hung the ornaments lazily on it one by one.Then we find ourselves in another difficult situation.It all started with a hint from a blank picture frame thrown in the corner of the hallway, sounding like Dumbledore and an unpleasant guest were coming soon, and we had to prepare.What can a wizard prepare, whether it's welcome or guard, a single wand can do everything they want - as long as your wand isn't burned by some crazy house-elf.Five minutes later, there was some noise at the front door, and it was supposed to be Headmaster Dumbledore's arrival."
Apparitions?"
Lupin muttered a little strangely.Because if Hogwarts wants to apparition here, it has to walk out of the Hogwarts area first, which is much more troublesome than the Floo network.Walking down the stairs, we heard the headmaster's steady voice remind, "Don't make a sound." ”Then the people who came with him asked loudly and defiantly, "Why?"
”Then Mrs.
Black's scream rang out violently, and she took the initiative to answer the man's question.I walked out of the foyer, and the moment the visitor at the door saw me, he suddenly exploded: "You!
”"Me?
How?
”I raised an eyebrow and looked at him closely, and my memory told me that neither I nor Vincent had ever met this guy.The man, who was clearly aware of me, quickly drew his wand and cast a curse on me.I noticed that he was using French magic.I quickly stepped out of the way, and the spell brushed against my cheek with a burning sensation."
You're the son of that madwoman!"
Excited and disgusted, the visitor cried out, "Oh, look at your disgusting smiling faces."
I don't think so, my appearance has changed, but my personal habits are still there.I'm not really Vincent, how can I smile like Helen?
I observed the stranger, his eyes were weak, his hands were shaking, a typical hysterical guy."
Who is he?"
Sirius responded with a curse as soon as he recited it, being overwhelmed by Dumbledore's defensive magic.Now Sirius warily pointed his wand at the stranger (who was glaring at me) and said; "Why did you invite such a suspicious guy in?"
Dumbledore coldly glanced at the man he had brought in, and that's when we realized that he seemed to be guarding and guarding this guy.The headmaster nodded at us and said, "Sorry for bothering you all day......
And, Sirius, this is your house, and I apologize for my recklessness.I have to warn you that this man grabbed two Hogwarts students and demanded ......"
"I want you dead!"
”The man interjected with a loud cry, waving his wand and trying to rush forward, this time Dumbledore struck, he raised his wand and waved, and then as if an invisible hand appeared, dragging the middle-aged man with stubble back into the foyer.This guy is clearly the opposite of us, what is Dumbledore doing?"
I don't know you."
I met the man's bloodshot eyes, and I was not at all interested in the resentful look, but a little bored.Sirius stood in front of me with his wand, and with a cherub to hang on the top of the tree, I poked out half of my head and said, "Hey."
People who make trouble are annoying, and I don't know if you realize it. ”Everybody hates trouble.The author has something to say:== Fell asleep twice in the middle.,If there are any logical problems, please ignore.。。
Moreover, if you can't get much reply, you can't find the locket.Hmph~ Chapter 61 Merry Christmas Continued I looked at him and noticed that there was something that looked like blood on the corner of this uninvited guest's clothes.There are deep bags under the eyes on his face, and his clothes are not neat, and he looks like a dusty man.He looked at me twice, then waved his wand menacingly, and shouted, "Get Helen out or I'll kill the two kidnapped kidnappers."
They're with my buddies now, if you're going to make them die ugly......"
We were stunned for a moment, and Professor Dumbledore had just put his left hand to his ear, as if listening to something, and then he smiled and lowered the hand in his ear, and he said to Sirius, "He has been asking for this, threatening the missing student - I can't do it, so I brought him to Vincent......"
As he spoke, he shook his hand and beautifully took the man's wand.The other party was frightened, and then immediately said fiercely: "You will regret it, my companion will ......"
"Your companion refers to Mrs.
Rosmerta of the Three Broomsticks Bar?"
”Dumbledore suddenly changed to a gentle smile: "This gentleman, you are really not fit to be a robber - I just got the news: in fact, there was no kidnapping at all, right?"
Do you give the kids two bags of Galleons and get rid of them at the three broomstick bar and pull up their robes and sit all night without going back to school?
It's ...... a trick," the headmaster coughed, the word he pressed under his tongue as "cute," but he didn't say it to avoid angering the wizard on the verge of collapse."
So," I turned my head to look at the others, realizing that it was up to me to ask the question, "that you went to all the trouble to come to me?"

What's going on?
”The guy we labelled "making a big fuss" had red circles in his eyes, and he ignored Dumbledore and said through gritted teeth, "I'm in anyway......
Take the wand.All I have to do is find Hei Qi White, that crazy woman. ”I unconsciously touched the little angel's head and said, "She's dead."
So, if you're here for revenge or something......
"Don't lie!
Weigh what you have to say before you speak, little one!
”Anonymous interrupted me, apparently not believing half of what I said, and then he shouted into the house, "Helen?
Helen!
You madman, I know you're in there, get the hell out of here!
”"You filthy guys......
Get lost!
Go out!
It's mine!
House!
”Mrs.
Black was startled again, and her screams instantly responded to Anonymous, and Lupin had to be distracted to stun Mrs.
Black."
I didn't lie to you.She died four and a half years ago, I saw it with my own eyes.She was under the Imperius curse of House Boyle. ”I had to convince this guy that Helen was dead.Reporting a death is never a good job."
She was indeed the ...... who lost the news at that time" Anonymous's eyes drifted for a moment, and then it was obvious that he was summoning all his sanity to deal with the news."
She's really dead?"
I nodded.Anonymous suddenly rushed up, as if to grab me by the collar and question me a dozen times, but Sirius grabbed and pushed me away.He stood there, his eyes swept over the others in turn, searching for any hints of lying on our faces, and let out a wail when he saw Dumbledore shake his head slightly regretfully."
Oh my gosh.Oh, my God.Oh my God......
"Anonymous held his head, as if all his strength had been drained, he shook and then slid against the wall and sat on the ground."
We didn't know ......" was a bit of a surprise to us.Everyone thought that this guy was Helen's enemy or something, and they tried their best to "kidnap" two students, and they had to see Helen, but they didn't expect that after hearing the news of his death, he would react like this."
You're lying......
How could a madman like Helen die......
She's so tough......"
Anonymous suddenly choked up, and the four of us looked at each other.It didn't seem good to leave a runaway wizard in the foyer to wail, so three minutes later, I served a cup of hot tea to Anonymous at the table: "Don't be too sad, drink something, that ......"
"Aaron." ”He said."
All right, Mr.
Aaron.You may know what she used to do......
It's too dangerous, and I lost my life if I missed......"
I sat next to me, trying to comfort this sad mess."
It's all gone......
All gone.I'm the only one left......" he sadly drank the cup of hot tea.So after another five minutes, we roughly figured out what was going on."
My wife, Debbie, and my sister and I have never given up supporting Helen."
He tried to calm down, and then began to tell seventeen years ago."
Over the years, Boyle's misdeeds have not been her fault at all, she has been the biggest victim - but since Smith stayed in the Arctic Circle and never returned, her so-called friends have cleared up with her one by one......"
"But our family never gave up."
We know what kind of person she is.Passionate, strong, and crazy – the kind of madness that makes you feel hopeful.We gathered intel for her, stepped on her points, analyzed her, and Debbie and my sister Susan taught that unruly madman how to take care of children - you have to be thankful for that, or she'll drown you in the tub from day one. ”Aaron smiled like a cry."
You're that Aaron!
Jem Aaron?
Are you Susan Aaron's brother?
You don't look the same as you used to be. ”It suddenly occurred to me that Helen did have such a behind-the-scenes team to help her do some important work of intelligence investigation.Vincent had always known that there were such people, and he was more familiar with Susan Aaron among them.But even if you have only met this Aaron a few times, you don't know what he looks like.Aaron peeled off his face, crumpled it up, and stuffed it back into his pocket, revealing the familiar face Vincent's memory: "I've got to do some disguise......
Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to get to England at all. ”I haven't seen Aaron for so many years, and Aaron is not much different from what he remembers, the biggest difference is that he is in a state of mind at the moment, and his eyes are red."

So, are you ready to tell us what's going on?
Furious pursuit to England to seek revenge on Helen - it sounds like you're pretty good friends. ”Dumbledore asked.Aaron took a deep breath and was silent for a long time, then squeezed the cup in his hand and said, "They're all dead......
My family, Debbie, Susan, and my five-year-old daughter, Jessica. ”Vincent's memories of the friendly Aunt Debbie, the eccentric Aunt Susan, and the little sister Jessica whom she had only met once—who had been spitting bubbles when Vincent saw her—were turned out, so clear and intense that for a moment I almost thought I had clumsily hugged the little Jessica myself."
Debbie's apple pie is delicious."
I suddenly said this, because my taste buds had received the sweet taste for a moment.
