บท 77: Chapter 77: "The Last Days of Summer: Harry, Ron, and Hermione's Holiday Adventures"
"You mean Draco is up to something?" Ron asked, taking a sip of grapefruit juice. On the last day of school, Harry finally met his two best friends, Ron and Hermione. Hermione was tanned brown, while Ron looked good and had changed into new clothes. Only then did Harry remember that Ron's family had won the Daily Prophet's award of seven hundred gold coins. Otherwise, he might still be wearing his brother's old clothes. Ron's family was often a little short of money due to their excessive integrity, and it was common for the younger brother to wear the older brother's robe after he was eliminated.
Harry was a little distracted. He wondered if he could buy the crossbow for seven hundred gold coins. These days, all his interest was on the latest flying broom. After that, they exchanged information about their holidays. Ron said that he had visited many pyramids in Egypt and that countless spells had been cast on them. Even though he had said this in the letter, he didn't mind saying it again. He was happy to share his pleasant experience with his friends.
"Of course, there's also the wand." Ron took out a slender box from his schoolbag, and a wand lay quietly inside it. "It's fourteen inches long, wicker, and has a unicorn tail hair."
"I think it will suit you very well," Harry said sincerely.
"I hope you can take your new wand and do less things that violate the school rules." Hermione poured cold water on Ron. "Can't you say something nice?" Ron was a little annoyed. "I'm sorry, I can't," Hermione said seriously. She didn't touch the cold drink on the table. Instead, she turned to Harry and said, "Harry, I heard you boasted about your aunt to the sky? How can you be so impatient? What if you are expelled? Are you really going to wander around in a bus like you did before?"
Hermione's series of questions was stopped by Harry's words.
"She insulted my parents." Harry clenched his fists, his veins bulging. He, who had been calmly enjoying the last days of his holiday, became agitated again. Hermione was speechless for a moment. Even if her parents were still alive, she certainly would not tolerate someone slandering them.
Besides, Harry's background made it even more intolerable for him to bear the vicious slander of these irritating relatives.
"Then you can use other methods." Hermione's voice was slightly weaker, not as strong as before."Perhaps." Harry gulped down the drink in his glass. Even now, when he recalled Aunt Paige's insulting words at the dining table, his blood still surged. If he could choose again, even if he would be fired, even if he might regret it in the future, he would still praise her.
"Actually, the result isn't that bad, is it? I even ran out of their house in advance and stayed at the Broken Cauldron for more than ten days. " Harry smiled and comforted Hermione. He knew that the girl in front of him was only saying this for his sake. Hidden behind her straightforward words was the concern of a friend.
The friendship between him and Ron was the one he cherished the most right now."It's just that I might not be able to go to Hogsmeade." Harry's eyes dimmed. "They didn't sign for me." He said dejectedly. What he didn't notice was that when Hermione heard Hogsmeade's name, her expression also changed slightly, then quickly returned to normal, like a calm lake without any ripples.They chatted for a while, discussing their new textbooks and new courses. The style of the "Monsters' Book" reminded them of Hagrid.
"I really don't know how the divination class will be held." Hermione said gloomily. She was looking forward to the new Ancient Magic and Arithmetic Divination class, but the book "Through the Fog to See the Future" really didn't interest her. The book only taught her to predict the future using the shape of tea leaves. Even wizards had rules about hand gestures and syllables. These were the basic rules, but this class seemed to be completely ineffective. The best gift given to her by the Muggle society for more than ten years — logic — couldn't be put to use.
"And I feel that I won't have enough time." Hermione seemed to have thought of something, and her brows furrowed even more tightly.
"School hasn't started yet, our top student Miss Granger." Ron glanced at her and said in a strange tone. He didn't care about his grades, as long as he didn't fail."You'll regret it in the future." Hermione glanced at him and fell silent.
Harry sensed that the atmosphere was a little strange, and wanted to find a topic to ease the awkward atmosphere, but he couldn't find anything interesting.
His vacation wasn't interesting at all. He had annoying relatives and was discriminated against. Even if he came to Diagon Alley, he was limited to this place. Ron and Hermione must have seen everything that he had seen. Ron would definitely be interested in the crossbow, but Hermione wouldn't be able to get a word in.
Then he would set up a target. Harry thought of his unpleasant encounter with Draco the other day, and he felt that this might be the only way to ease the atmosphere. So he spoke. When he mentioned Malfoy's name, Hermione didn't seem to have any reaction, but only she knew that her heart suddenly beat faster.
Harry didn't bother to add fuel to the fire and say anything misleading. He tried his best to objectively tell the story from beginning to end, and then Ron asked him that question.
"It's just a fake name. I don't think it's a big deal." Ron didn't find fault with Draco this time. "I think he must have suffered enough last time." He said happily.
"But that girl, you said she looked older than us. Is she beautiful?" Ron asked expectantly.
"Yes." Harry nodded, embarrassed. He just looked at her from afar and felt that his soul was about to be taken away. In order to hide his guilty conscience, he was embarrassed to keep staring at others, but that glimpse had left a deep impression in his mind."She seems to have a strange charm," Harry thought. But even if the beautiful girl's charm was amazing, Harry still felt that she wasn't his type. Her beautiful temperament was too warm and unrestrained, and people didn't dare to get close to her."Perhaps Draco is more suitable for her," Harry suddenly thought to himself."That's a pity. You should expose him in person," Ron said with some regret."I wanted to hear what he was planning, but in the end, the girl seemed to suddenly leave, and I didn't have a chance." Harry spread out his hands, expressing his helplessness.
Suddenly, the two of them fell silent at the same time, because Harry and Ron both realized that from the beginning until now, Hermione still didn't say a word, as if she was being excluded.
When the boys were discussing the evaluation of a girl, it was difficult for the other girl to get a word in.
But Hermione's silence was not only because of this, she heard the name that made her unable to stay calm.
Since she consulted Professor Flick, she secretly made up her mind to find her lost memories. Since the wizard's method didn't work, she chose to try the Muggle method to solve the problem.
She couldn't tell her parents that she might have been put on an "Amnesia Spell".So she began to play to her strength, which was the rapid mastery of knowledge.
So during the holiday, in addition to preparing for future subjects, she also bought several books by Muggle psychologists on her shopping list.
Unfortunately, those tutorials were a little difficult for many college students who had enough experience, let alone an adolescent girl who had not seen much of the world.No matter how high one's IQ was, one couldn't force the lack of experience to the same level.
In a sense, psychology was also a kind of sociology, so Hermione's only gain in psychology this holiday was a few terms that she didn't understand.
As for the hope of hypnotizing herself to recall the deepest memories in her mind, it could only be said that it was a failure.
Even in a state of absent-mindedness, Hermione didn't hear the conversation between them, but she was not interested. She only felt a little stuffy in her chest, and she didn't know what kind of emotion she was feeling. She wanted them to stop the current topic, so she said, "I think as cultured men, two people won't comment on a woman's appearance behind her back." After that, she picked up her things and prepared to leave.
Harry was about to apologize to her, but he was stopped by Ron."Let her go, it's always on the line, it's disappointing." Looking at Hermione's back as she stepped out of the door, Ron said with some resentment. He didn't want her to stay at all.
Harry didn't know what to say. In fact, he also felt that Hermione seemed to be like a powder keg today."Then let her calm down first." Harry shrugged helplessly.
