Chapter 80 Explanation of Hermione's Plot
Some readers criticized the author for forcibly changing Hermione's personality. It should be noted here that Hermione slapped Draco in the original story (Volume 3, Chapter 15). You can say that this plot is very poisonous, but the plot must develop in this way. The characters of the protagonist and Hermione are destined to make such a decision at that time.
Readers who think Hermione will not hit people must remember: the original Harry Potter is a youth novel, and the protagonist in it is a growing type. The character is different every year, and they are constantly growing. Hermione in the third year did hit Draco.
Hermione in the first year was a girl who followed the rules. Hermione in the second year was willing to break the school rules for the justice in her heart. Do you know how fragile Hermione in the third year is? She first took 12 subjects, but the pressure was so great that she couldn't breathe. Then she faced the boycott and isolation of her friends (because of Scabbers and Firebolt), and also because of the disagreement with Trelawney, she was under pressure in the Divination class. In the original book, what finally made her emotionally collapsed was the death sentence of Hippogriff. She officially came into contact with the ugly side of the adult world, which is the so-called politics.
It was because of the accumulation of negative emotions that she beat Draco. Not to mention the readers, even Ron in the original book was shocked. The original text of Chapter 16 is as follows:
"Hermione, I don't know what's wrong with you recently!" Ron said in shock, "First you beat Malfoy, and then you walked out of Professor Trelawney's class-"
See? Hermione's emotions have been suppressed for too long. The third year is the time for her to officially break free from the shackles of "good kid" and transform into a butterfly!
In this work, the hippogriff was rescued by Sherin, but Hagrid got into another kind of trouble, which was a bigger trouble in a sense. He dragged Dumbledore down, and even Dumbledore's authority was challenged. This means that Hermione's fate has returned to the trajectory of the original book. Her emotions must be extremely bad. When Draco laughed at Hagrid as in the original book, Hermione would definitely stand up as in the original book.
And what about Sherin? On one side is his brother and Slytherin, and on the other side is Hermione, who has little feelings for him. What would you choose?
What's more, in a sense, Sherin saved Hermione's life! Can you imagine what would happen to Harry, Ron, and Hermione (remember, Harry's strength only increased dramatically in the fourth year, and he was a rookie in the first three years) surrounded by the furious Draco and more than a dozen little snakes?
As for readers who like Hermione, the author wants to ask, Hermione is not dead, don't you look forward to her subsequent development?
