MTL - In This Hogwarts Without a Savior-Chapter 386 384. Hermione and 'Hermione'
Chapter 386 384. Hermione and 'Hermione'
"I rescued Asia. On the day she gave me the bracelet, she thought she was pretending to be very similar, but in fact I could see the depression and despair. Then I learned from Professor Dumbledore. There's a Fawkes' feather coming in there, I didn't tell her what it was or how to use it, it's just an anchor to use as an apparition location just in case."
"But in fact, that feather was useless in the end, because when I saw her being taken away by those pure-blood students from the Marauder's Map, I happened to be in the secret passage. Those people planned to use it on her I cast the most vicious blood curse to turn her into a half-human, half-beast monster. I put on an invisibility cloak and quietly changed some runes on the ground. Those pure-bloods are simply a group of illiterates, and the layout of the curse is rigid. According to the book, they didn’t know the spell at all. They thought their curse was successful and left complacently. Asia also thought their curse was successful, but she had already prepared to commit suicide Ready, I was carrying a bottle of dead fire potion and was about to set myself on fire. I stopped her and took her out of the castle. After returning to the carriage, I asked Professor Dumbledore to find a dead body and burned the body with dead fire potion. Drop it and send it back to that classroom."
The sad music became louder and louder, and the surrounding students also began to leave their seats and entered the center of the auditorium.
Jon felt his ears itchy, and Hermione spoke a lot in his ear, and the hot breath irritated his nerves.
"It's very risky for you to do this. If Auror or Crouch investigates a little more carefully, he will find that the ashes are not Asia at all."
Hermione was noncommittal.
"This is a gamble. My bargaining chip is that I know Crouch's contempt for half-bloods and hemp. To be given such trust by the Dark Lord, he is of course a very capable person, but the same, He's also completely lost in his master's lies about pure blood supremacy, contempt for all non-pure blood wizards, plus he's inherently arrogant and thinks all the plans are under his control. So I'm betting he won't Go and study Asia's ashes carefully, because she has completed all her tasks, handed the bracelet into my hands, and finally took her own life as he expected, so why does he still want to observe those wreckage?"
Bold and careful, Hermione did almost everything she could. She didn't watch Asia accept her tragic fate, and she didn't shrink back in the face of difficulties and dangers, which made Jon feel admiration .
"Then what is the use of this bracelet? What effect can it have on me when it is worn on your hand?" Jon asked puzzled about this most critical question.
A mysterious smile appeared on the corner of Hermione's mouth, and there was an unexpected playfulness in her voice.
"you guess."
"Could it be that Crouch actually cast some curse inside, as long as I come across this bracelet at the ball and he sees it, he will trigger the curse and make me die suddenly in public?"
"Isn't it more risky for him to do this? Asia sent the bracelet to me so early, if Professor Dumbledore found out that the bracelet was wrong in the carriage, all his preparations would be in vain. .”
"Then I can't guess."
Jon said bluntly, it wasn't that he didn't have enough brains, but that he didn't participate in this matter from the beginning to the end. It was planned by Hermione and Dumbledore together. He was just fishing by the Black Lake these days.
"If you can't guess it, then don't say it."
The smile on the corner of Hermione's mouth never disappeared, as if there was some interesting secret hidden on this bracelet.
Jon couldn't help feeling speechless for a while. He felt that Hermione not only seemed to be learning how to speak from him, but also learned the bad habit of being a riddle from Dumbledore.
"What are you going to do in a while? You're planning to draw both Crouch and Snape's attention to us?"
Hermione didn't hide this from Jon, she said softly.
"When you were working on your first event, I was always looking for the secret room left by Mr. Slytherin. In that secret room, the secret that the Dark Lord planned to kill the castle was hidden, but if it's just for Well, then it is completely meaningless for him to do so. According to Mr. Slytherin's speculation, while he wants to kill the castle, he must also want to absorb his will into the entire Hogwarts castle, that is to say He will have two preparations, one is the secret room, and the other is in other places."
"Have you already determined where that place is?"
"This is something that is easy to deduce, isn't it? Compared with the arrangement of killing the castle in the secret room, it is obviously more important for him to impose his own will on the castle. In addition, he can only return to the castle twice a year, so the key When he comes back, he will definitely check to make sure that the arrangement is safe, and in the whole school, there is only one place that he will go to every time he comes back."
Jon held his breath slightly and said softly.
"Principal room."
"Yes, and because you entered the principal's office once before, and you brought back the information that the relics of the four founders were placed on the table in that office, it will make Professor Dumbledore and Mr. Slytherin more sure of this, His biggest arrangement must be in the principal's office."
Jon also deeply agreed with this. When he entered the principal's office for the first time, he felt that there was something wrong with the four relics placed there, so he didn't act rashly at that time, and now there is indeed a problem.
"But I remember that after I killed the basilisk in front of the hall in the principal's office, there were no guards inside, and now they have been re-arranged with new ones?"
"That's right, when looking for the entrance to the Chamber of Secrets, Fox tried to go in once, and heard from Professor Dumbledore that he saw a snake inside, a snake that was different from the basilisk, and it didn't feel so threatening to him. high."
"So you want to use Crouch's arrangement for me at this Christmas dinner to attract his and Snape's attention, and then enter the headmaster's office to destroy the preparations for the Dark Lord inside?"
"Those things are not so easy to destroy. This time is the same as the last time I went to the secret room. I just need to copy the runes on the table where the four relics are placed. Fox will deal with the snake."
"Why do I always feel that this plan is a bit familiar."
"Of course you should feel familiar. Don't forget who covered you when you first entered the principal's room to kill the basilisk when you sneaked into the castle. Now that our identities have been swapped, it's your turn to cover me. .”
"You stole my idea."
Hermione's eyes curved into crescents.
"Then how do you want me to pay compensation?"
"Forget it, I am very generous, you can use it as you like. There is one last question, who will pretend to be you and follow me later?"
"Lee Jordan, I wanted to find a girl, but you know that there are only so many students who come to Hogwarts Castle, and I can't find a suitable one. So Professor Dumbledore also respected me, and decided to give up using the compound recipe altogether. Decoction, he personally used the transfiguration technique on Li, which will be safer at the same time. You can follow his words later, and Professor Dumbledore should have said everything to him."
Of course, Jon is also happy. This time, he finally doesn’t need to use his brain. He just needs to do what he is planned to do step by step.
Halfway through the dance, he and Hermione left from the center of the auditorium and returned to their seats. Jon didn't keep staring at Crouch and Snape, but whenever he pretended to be inadvertently looking towards the high platform, When I glanced at him, I could always find that there was a hidden and clear gap between these two people every time they wanted to observe him. Obviously, this was no coincidence.
"Wish me luck."
Hermione got up from Jon's side, and Jon looked up at her, without blessing, just said very seriously.
"You must put your own safety first."
"Remember what you promised us every time you went on an adventure? I am also like you, Jon, and I am also a person who is afraid of death."
Jon looked helpless.
"But since I met you, I have never felt that you are afraid of death."
"This sentence will also be returned to you."
They seemed to be bickering, but they acted as if they had just talked about some funny joke.
On the high platform, little Barty, who was leaning on the back of the chair, looked at Hermione who stood up and walked towards the bathroom, with a cold smile on his face.
"Why is the effect of the medicine produced so slowly?"
Snape was still expressionless.
"You didn't set an exact time for me at all, so I don't know when the first wave of medicine will take effect, but I can be sure that all the people in that bracelet will be as slow as eight o'clock at the latest. The potions will all evaporate."
"It's good that you can give such a guarantee."
Little Barty said in a cold voice, and then he beckoned to a female professor from the Pure Blood College, whispered something in her ear, and then the female professor also walked towards the girls' bathroom.
In the middle of the auditorium, the dance is still going on, or the students in the castle are only now officially entering the state, and among them, Emil and his dance partner have kissed in the public after the end of the song, making everyone around Let out a booing.
Seeing this scene, Little Barty didn't know why a burst of irritability arose in his heart. There was a vague uneasiness in his heart, but he couldn't tell where this uneasiness came from.
Soon, Hermione came out of the bathroom again, and the female professor he arranged came out behind her, and the female professor who was far away shook her head cryptically at Little Barty.
This made him let go of some restlessness, and set his sights on 'Hermione' and Jon who had reunited.
Jon also looked at the 'Hermione' who was exactly the same as when he left just now, and no one could feel any difference. The expression on his face remained the same, but he still couldn't help feeling strange in his heart.
"This robe is so beautiful, Jon! To be honest, I was a little resistant when Professor Dumbledore gave it to me at first, but after wearing it, I couldn't put it down. Am I beautiful!"
As soon as 'Hermione' opened his drake-like voice, Jon almost couldn't hold back on the spot, almost spitting out the juice he just drank in his mouth.
"Why didn't you change your voice?" He lowered his voice, turned his back to the direction where Crouch and Snape were, and asked with wide eyes.
The outside is still the same, but the 'Hermione' who has turned into Lee's disguise has no choice but to spread his hands.
"When Hermione entered just now, there was a professor from the castle following behind her. The voice-changing potion has a time limit. According to the plan, I will drink the potion when I take over her role, but because there are people following her, there is no time. I can just get out of here."
"Okay, the potion will still drink if you find a chance, but can you stop saying such disgusting words! Ask me if you are beautiful!"
"Hey, you are discriminatory, I'm sure if Hermione asked you that, you would have praised her for being beautiful!"
"Shut up! Since the voice hasn't changed, talk less! How long are we going to stay in the auditorium?"
"Twenty minutes, start counting when I sit next to you. After twenty minutes, I will hold your arm and have a romantic garden together~ Also, we must show that we have been chatting, so I can't shut up." Mouth."
"Can you stop disgusting me with this tone?"
"I thought you would like it. George told me that you originally planned to find a male dance partner. He said that you are actually a hidden gay."
"Thank you for conveying, don't worry, tomorrow I will use the blasting spell to blow his mouth apart!"
"Hey! Then you must call me over to watch from the sidelines. I have wanted to do this for a long time!"
Suddenly, Jon looked at Li and narrowed his eyes, staring at the slightly raised chest in front of him.
"How much does Professor Dumbledore's Transfiguration affect you? The same effect as Polyjuice Potion?"
"Of course not. Originally, it would be perfect to find a girl here, but Professor Dumbledore can only let me out if there is no suitable partner. In order to protect the privacy of the lady, the professor just put my face and The exposed part has been changed, if you don’t believe me, you can take off my robe and look inside, you still have healthy black skin!”
"Then what happened to your chest?"
Li's face suddenly showed a "I understand" expression.
"Big mantra, do you want to touch it? It's very soft."
"Get out! You disgust me!"
They communicated in a low voice, and there was no one else around, so even if someone looked at their position, they would just think that the two were talking about some funny and disgusting jokes.
Crouch also saw this scene from a distance, and the corner of his mouth curled up in a somewhat gloomy arc. In his eyes, the mutual damage between Li and Jon was more like "flirting".
"I feel that your potion has taken effect."
Snape shook the cider in the glass, lowered his head and took a sip.
"Obviously, he has become much more relaxed than before, and his gaze has never left the girl's chest since just now."
It’s still there. If you write four thousand, you’ll post it in the early morning. If you don’t write enough, you’ll wait until tomorrow.
