"Ron?"
Bill, who was using white essence to treat a wizard with a leg laceration, heard a familiar voice suddenly coming from the entrance.
He did not turn around immediately to look, but after finishing treating the injured, he stood up and looked towards the location where the sound came from.
"Are Hermione and Harry back? Is Ginny okay?" Bill clapped his hands and asked.
On the other side, seeing Bill's calm look, Ron suddenly frowned.
"Ginny is fine, but... Bill, what about you? This is the question I want to ask you - are you okay? Percy -"
However, before Ron could finish speaking, he saw Bill wave his hand immediately, and immediately blocked everything he wanted to say later.
"I'll go out for a while, and you continue to follow the treatment plan I set. Thank you for your hard work."
After giving a few instructions to a therapist not far away, he quickly walked towards Ron, pushed Ron's shoulders and walked out of the tent with him.
"Oh, you guys are also... very good." Seeing Neville and Hannah looking outside, Bill nodded to them, "Being able to come back safely is better than anything else."
Having said this, Bill frowned slightly, looked at Ron and the others and said:
"It seems that you already know about Percy?"
"Yes," Ron's voice became deeper and deeper, "Miss Delacour has already told us, and... she is very worried about you, so I came to take a look first."
"What do I have to worry about?" Bill heard this and shook his head immediately. "So, you are also worried about whether I am holding on?"
"Isn't it?" After hearing this, Ron finally couldn't help shouting, "We all know that the person Percy respects and admires the most since he was a child is you - you were a prefect and the president of the Boys' Student Union when you were in school. , he worked hard to become a prefect and chairman; when you graduated with 12 'excellent' points in all subjects, he also took all the courses and studied hard and got 12 'excellent' points. You are Per An example to the West!”
"And you have always been the most protective of Percy like this - don't think we don't know that you always sent things to Percy when you were in Egypt."
"So, now...how can you not be sad?"
Ron seemed to be questioning and urging, and perhaps he was venting the pain in his heart. Bill couldn't help but sigh after hearing his words, and then reached out and patted Ron on the shoulder.
"I didn't say I wasn't sad..." Bill said, "Yes! Percy has always been my cutest brother. Except for the period when he made mistakes before, our relationship has always been very good - it can even be said that It's better than my relationship with you. Probably because of this, he only said some words to me."
Having said this, he turned slightly and looked at the Granger camp not far away - at this moment, Percy was "sleeping" in the middle tent, and Bill was resting on the bed here recently. .
"Yes, in fact, before setting off for Weymouth, Percy had a good chat with me." Bill recalled, "He said that this time he went to the front mainly to repay the sins he had committed in the past. It's his fault - so he will try his best to fight. At that time, I persuaded him and told him that no one was actually blaming him... But he said that it was not others who blamed him, but himself - he could not forgive the betrayal I betrayed my friends and family."
"However, he also knew that in the face of this terrible disaster, his power was very small. Therefore, while he was staying in Weymouth, he asked me to be mentally prepared that he would die at any time - in case After he dies, I will continue to do what he has not finished."
While talking, Bill paused briefly, and then suddenly changed his subject:
"Ron, do you know what Percy's goal is?"
"What?" Ron was stunned for a moment.
"He actually just hopes that he can hold Weymouth, because you know, to the west is Devon, our home - this is the gift he wants to give to his parents." Bill said, tears finally appeared in his eyes , he said slowly with tears in his eyes, "I said at that time that I would also come to help, because this is exactly what I want to do."
At this point, Bill casually raised his hand to rub his eyes, then patted Ron on the back hard and said:
"There are so many dangers these days, anything can happen, and anyone can die - Percy will die, and so will we, but what we have to do remains the same! We can be sad, and we can cry, but Let me tell you, I would rather cry peacefully in the Burrow, in my own room..."
"Okay," Bill waved his hand and said, "I should go and get busy. There are still many people waiting for treatment - each of them will be the force to counterattack Haierbo, and they will all be the ones to recapture There is no time to delay in our hometown!”
After that, he didn't say much, and after nodding towards Neville and Hannah, he immediately turned around and dove into the first aid tent.
"Thank you, it's okay, let's continue... By the way, Miss Granger and the others are back..."
Listening to Bill's voice faintly coming from the tent, and the ensuing discussion and cheers mixed with pain, Neville and Hannah found that Ron was stunned in place.
"Ro—"
Neville was about to call him, but Hannah blocked his mouth with a hand.
"Don't disturb Ron's thinking... I think what brother Ron just said is right - even we may die at any time, and what we need is no longer to cry loudly when witnessing death. Because, still There are many things that the dead have not done and we need to finish them for them.”
Maybe it was because she had been friends with Luna for a long time, but now when she said these words, her tone seemed to be tainted with Luna's flavor.
"I'm going to check on Ginny," Hannah paused before adding, "Neville, stay here with Ron! When he figures it out, you can go with him to find us."
"Uh... um."
Neville nodded and watched Hannah run towards the camp, out of sight. This time he turned his head and looked at Ron again, who was still in a daze.
After a while, Neville couldn't help but mutter to himself:
"Yeah! We don't have time to be sad anymore."
On this day, in the confusion and determination of losing Percy, everyone seemed to have grown up. Just raising his head and looking at it, he still couldn't see what the future looked like.
