 The author's Twitter clue about her forthcoming 点击发音 project had 'Harry¹ Potter' fans in a tizzy 点击发音.

作者J·K·罗琳女士的官方推特透露出她接下来要进行的项目，这使得“哈利波特”的粉丝们乱作一团。

这位多产作家在周一发布了一条回文字谜，暗示与自己正在开发的新项目有关。

The message read: "Cry, foe⁴ 点击发音! Run amok! Fa awry⁵! My wand 点击发音 won't tolerate this nonsense."这则消息是：“哭吧，敌人！胡作非为！我的魔杖不会容忍这种无稽之谈。“Fans of The Boy Who Lived were quick to optimistically interpret this as a sign that the spellcasting 点击发音 lad 点击发音 was figuring into her plans, particularly given the word "wand."哈迷们根据”魔杖‘这个词很快就高兴地猜测罗妈正在计划魔法少年的续集。
