Chapter 550: Decline in IQ

When Harry woke up on Sunday morning, it took him a while to remember why he was so sad and distressed.

The scenes from last night came to mind.

He sat up, hung up the bed curtains, and was about to talk to Ron and force him to believe him - but found that Ron's bed was empty, and he had obviously gone to have breakfast.

Harry got dressed and walked up the spiral staircase into the common room.

As soon as he appeared, people who had finished their breakfast applauded again.

Go down the hall and face the people who treat him like a hero? I'm afraid the future is not very optimistic, but staying here?

The Weasley brothers would corner him and force him to join them. He made up his mind to walk towards the portrait, pulled it open, climbed out, and found himself facing Hermione and Fanlin, who had just returned from dinner.

"Hi," Hermione said, holding up the paper-wrapped toast in her hand. "I got this for you...want to go for a walk?"

"Good idea." Harry said gratefully.

They went downstairs without looking into the hall, walked quickly through the entrance hall, and soon were walking on the lawn leading to the small lake.

Durmstrang's boat was parked on the edge of the lake, his shadow in the water. morning

It's quite cold in the morning.

They ate toast as they walked. Harry told her and Vanlin what happened after he left the Gryffindor table last night.

He was greatly relieved to find that Hermione believed him without asking any questions.

As for Fanlin, he should know it better than anyone else.

Harry was very grateful that his two friends stood by him without hesitation.

Maybe Fanlin and Hermione had already talked about it, but he didn't care, he just wanted to say it, and it felt much better to say it.

He told her what had happened in that room after leaving the hall. She said, "Of course I know you didn't sign up. Just look at the look on your face when you heard Dumbledore announce your name! But the question is who put the name in? Harry, Moody is right. , I don’t think any student can do that, except Fan Lin... But you also know that Fan Lin has no reason to let you participate in the competition. This is not a good thing. As for the rest... they lied You can’t fool Dumbledore without the goblet—”

"Have you seen Ron?" Harry interrupted.

Hermione hesitated.

"Yes, I saw him. He was having breakfast."

"Does he still think I signed up for it myself?"

"No, I don't think so, not really." Hermione was a little embarrassed.

"No really, what does that mean?"

"Harry, isn't it obvious?" Hermione said, "I think he's jealous."

"Jealous?" Harry felt unreasonable. "Why is he jealous? He wants to make a fool of himself in front of the whole school?"

"Well," Hermione explained to him patiently, "you know, you always get the attention... I know it's not your fault."

Harry wanted to defend, but Hermione spoke quickly, "I know you don't want to either, but, uh, you know, Ron has to compete with his brothers at home. You are his best friend, and you It's so famous. Every time people pay attention to you, he always quietly steps aside. Although he never mentioned it, this time, he can't stand it anymore.

"Very good, really good." Harry said painfully, "Go and tell him that I am willing to trade with him anytime he wants. Tell him that I welcome him to trade... trade people on my forehead. Scar’s concern…”

Hermione said immediately, "I won't tell him anything. You tell him yourself, that's the only solution.

"I'm not going to be running around and being mature around him," Harry said loudly, startling several owls from a nearby tree.

"It might take me losing my head for him to believe that I didn't like it."

"Don't be ridiculous." Hermione said softly, "It's not funny at all." It seemed that she was very nervous, and then Hermione poked Fan Lin and signaled Fan Lin to say a few words.

Fan Lin was speechless. In fact, he didn't know how to deal with matters between these friends at all.

In Fan Lin's view, there was a reason for Ron's behavior, but all this was not accepted by Harry, and then things became bad.

He is not a suitable communicator as a bridge between the two.

Fanlin clasped his hands together and bowed imploringly to Hermione. Immediately afterwards, he received a roll of eyes from Hermione.

"Harry, I've been thinking, do you know what we should do? What we should do as soon as we get back to the castle?" Hermione said.

"I know, give Ron a good kick and kick him into the black lake to feed the octopus..."

"Feed the octopus..." Fan Lin was speechless, "Maybe you can choose to let Ron feed the snails..."

"Okay." Harry nodded.

Immediately afterwards, Hermione hit each of the two people's heads.

"Write to Sirius! You must tell him what happened. He asked you to write and tell him everything that happened at Hogwarts. It's possible he expected this to happen. I brought a quill and Some parchment."

"Forget it." Harry waved his hand helplessly, "Maybe Fan Lin is his godson, and I can't contact him at all..."

"That... that's just..." Fan Lin muttered, "I think it's just because... because he wants to buy me some experimental materials. You know, Hogwarts can't get them at all. , and Dobby’s identity..."

"There's nothing wrong with his identity," Hermione emphasized.

"Uh, okay, let's not continue this issue." Fan Lin said quickly.

Hermione rolled her eyes, "Harry, this requires you to take the initiative to communicate. You know, Sirius may not have it now...Sirius must want to know these things. Maybe you can finish the toast, and then we will go to Owl house."

"We need to write a letter first." Fan Lin said suddenly.

Immediately afterwards, Hermione stared at Fan Lin like an idiot.

As a result, the situation becomes a bit embarrassing.

Without Ron's absence, Fanlin's IQ began to plummet, which was not a good thing.

If you really get closer to Ron...

Maybe he was abandoned by Dumbledore. Even compared to now, Fanlin's starting point is already very high...

Fanlin wisely chose to shut up. Silence is a virtue.

The ancients never deceived me...

In fact, if you don't shut up, your behavior without any lower limit of IQ is really terrible.

"Let's go back quickly." Fan Lin said quickly, "Harry, you should think carefully about recent events. To sum up, I think Sirius should give some suggestions, although he is quite unreliable. of."

"Let's go!" Hermione patted Fan Lin, "You talk too much..." (To be continued)
