Chapter 1074 Miss Granger's Blush
"It's a date! We made a bet that whoever catches the snitch first and wins the game can have a fun date with you tonight."
"Honestly, I'm actually curious about what a 'date' tastes like—is it sweet? Well, but this time I'll leave it to Hermione!"
After listening to Luna, who was poking her head behind her, explaining in this way, Maca became even more speechless.
"A date with me?" He said delicately, "Then you haven't planned to, have you told me, the client, in advance?"
"Oh, I was going to say it, but Hermione didn't think it was necessary." Luna grabbed Maca's shoulder and tilted her head, "Because she said, you will definitely agree anyway-I think she said it Makes sense."
"Uh--"
Maca couldn't help but stagnate when he heard the words, and then nodded and said:
"Okay! I must say, you guys seem to know me pretty well already! So, what about tonight... let's have a date—"
However, when Maca was about to agree, Hermione standing in front of her finally couldn't help but said:
"Wait! I haven't agreed yet!"
To be honest, Hermione's expression is a little shy now, even the base of her ears is slightly pink. But between half pushing and half pushing, she finally gritted her teeth and interrupted Maca's words.
"Luna," she said, staring at Luna who was hiding behind Maca, with only her head exposed on her shoulders, "I told you, we haven't decided the winner yet! You do this... I, I But I will never agree!"
Having said that, Hermione stared at Luna's face, and suddenly emphasized:
"Didn't we agree that day? I want to compete fairly with you! 'Fair'-understand?"
"But there is no absolute fairness in this world?" Luna whispered, "Just like in the game just now, you may have given up that Lonsky fake move because you wanted a fair fight. But in fact you Even if you do, there is no way to get rid of me... In normal training, I have seen your dive and emergency stop practice many times!"
"Have you seen it many times?" Hermione was surprised when she heard it, "But every time I practice, you are also practicing other exercises? I have never seen you observe me... ..."
After Luna heard it,
Then he nodded:
"This is the second "unfair" thing I want to say... You know, I can sense a lot of things around me now. So even if I don't have to look at it, I can always know what you are doing .”
As she was speaking, she paused for a while, and quickly continued:
"So, you understand! In fact, even if I keep falling behind, the chances of spotting the Snitch before you are much greater!"
After Luna's explanation, Hermione seemed to have finally figured out something, and said in surprise again:
"So, you were flying around in the middle of the midfield, but you were actually trying to disrupt your perception?"
"Yeah!" Luna nodded, "We've done this to keep it as fair as possible, but in the end, because my broom broke down, no one caught the Snitch...Look! Even if we arrange everything Well, good or bad luck also affects the fairness of the game."
Speaking of which, she blinked and said with a smile:
"So in other words, luck is also part of the outcome, isn't it?"
After that, Luna pressed Maca's back and pushed him forward slightly. Then he giggled and backed away, then turned around and ran away.
"Go! Hermione, you have to tell me what a date is like later!"
"That's not something you can eat..."
Hermione pursed her lips, muttered something in a low voice, and then shifted her gaze to Maca's face little by little.
"Maca?"
"Uh...um."
"See you at the school gate in the afternoon."
Seeing Hermione also running towards the exit of the Quidditch pitch, Maca subconsciously turned around, only to find that a large group of people present were looking at him with some kind of strange eyes.
After being stunned for a moment, he shrugged and said:
"In short, although it's a bit regrettable...but the game is still over like this!"
"Oh, yes!" Professor McGonagall looked at him with a kind smile on his face, "But you are wrong about one thing - as long as the students can show off their youth on this court, the Quidditch Cup will never be held." Will 'regret'!"
"That's right," Slughorn also had a weird smile on his face, but he came over and patted Maca's shoulder vigorously and said, "Spend your youth...well, it's nice to be young!"
It's just...Of course, the outcome of Luna and Hermione is their own, but the outcome of the Quidditch Cup is the team's.
Neither of them caught the Snitch in the end, so after Mrs. Hooch's ruling and Ginny and Qiu's joint discussions, the game was finally judged as "30 to 40" as Ravenclaw's junior. Win a game.
At the end of the match, Snape teased Maca with the corners of his lips curled up:
"It seems that we, Slytherin, have reserved the Quidditch Silver Cup this season."
For this, Maca could only say "Congratulations" to him in advance, dumbfounded.
As for Hermione, Ron and the others couldn't find her after they went back. After her roommate returned to the dormitory, everyone knew that she hid in the dormitory as soon as she came back.
It wasn't until lunch time started at noon that everyone saw Hermione slowly "move" to the long Gryffindor table and sat down in her old seat.
"Hermione, are you a little nervous?" Ron laughed and said, "It's okay, relax! Hey... I didn't expect that what you and Luna kept from us for so long was just a date! "
Hearing Ron's persistent teasing, Hermione glared at him angrily.
"Shut up!" she said angrily, "I'm not nervous! Isn't it just a date... It's just a trivial thing!"
"yes?"
It was rare for Ron not to be afraid of her this time. He first looked at Hermione a few times, then put Neville's shoulders on one side, and asked in a moderate voice:
"Neville, look! How is Hermione different from this morning?"
"Well?"
Neville was stuffing a mouthful of scones, and hearing Ron's question, he couldn't help turning his head to look at Hermione as well.
"Have... a hairstyle?"
"Yeah, quick smoother - what else? What else?" Ron urged, patting him on the shoulder with a smile on his face.
Upon hearing this, Neville stared at Hermione again. It wasn't until Hermione, who lowered her head patiently, couldn't hold back anymore, raised her head and gouged him fiercely, that he suddenly said:
"Hermione, are you blushing?"
"Oh! Merlin!" Ron pushed Neville away and said loudly, "That's blush!"
"Boom!"
Hermione slapped the dining table with a slap, and the muffled sound was unexpectedly loud, scaring several junior students from spilling the thick soup in their hands.
"I tell you to shut up! Ron!"
At noon today, Luna, who deliberately sat back at the Ravenclaw long table, was sticking to Qiu talking about these whimsical topics. Hearing the sound of Hermione slapping the table, although she didn't know exactly what happened, she happily hugged Qiu's arm and laughed.
...
Sunday is Hogsmeade Day, and since the Quidditch match ended early this morning, everyone's schedule has returned to the usual track.
As soon as the lunch time passed, the little wizards handed in their parents' signatures one after another, and rushed to Hogsmeade village in small groups.
Of course, because there are still a lot of Muggles working on the hillside in front of the school nowadays, it is necessary for everyone to take a short detour.
Otherwise, a group of children in wizard robes came out of the "ruin" and passed in a mess along the road.
And at this moment, Maca didn't waste Hermione's nervousness and anticipation, and stood at the school gate early.
However, before he could wait for Hermione to appear, Ron and the others approached him first.
"Maka, you'll find out later anyway, so I'll say it first—" Ron said quietly, "I'll take Neville and the others to watch, remember to behave better! Let's study and study!"
Afterwards, he jumped away the moment Maca raised his hand and made a gesture to hit him, and walked along the horse path to the school gate together with the others.
Maca let go of his hands after the guys with no eyesight had left, and a knowing smile appeared on his face.
In fact, the matter between Hermione and Luna was no longer bothering him. Because he knew that both girls clearly knew what they were doing.
And what will develop in the future, let's let nature take its course!
After all, aside from other things, at least Hai Erbo's matter is still in front of him - as far as Pan Xi's matter is concerned, he has even touched the edge of Hai Erbo's "tentacle".
Before those matters were settled, he didn't have the energy to worry about these personal matters anymore, so he might as well just trust Hermione and Luna's decision.
"Maca!"
Looking at the Hermione who walked slowly from the castle and finally stopped in front of him, he smiled frankly:
"Good afternoon, Hermione... oh, are you wearing makeup?"
"Hmm..." Hermione pursed her pink lips, and said softly, "I usually find it a little troublesome, so I don't use it much... I spent a little more time today."
"It looks good!" Maca nodded, "But for cosmetics and skin care products, I personally recommend that you use products from the wizarding world, because they are all natural... Ah! I remember that the brand of McMillan's family is good!"
While chatting casually along the topic, he led Hermione and leisurely walked outside the school gate.
Under the clear blue sky today, the two figures could be seen drifting away on the horse path outside, and finally disappeared slowly on a side road.
