Chapter 384 The Peepers in the Hall

"...So, what will happen to those who violate the contract?"

Under Ron's eager questioning, Harry also cast curious eyes on Hermione. The update was the fastest, but just as Hermione was about to whisper it to them, she was interrupted by another sudden voice.

"Miss Granger"

This crisp shout immediately attracted the attention of the three of them, they turned their heads almost at the same time, and looked in the direction where the voice came from.

"Miss Granger... oh! Are Mr. Weasley and Mr. Potter here?"

Running over briskly from the other side of the hall was Helen Schoen, the third-year "freshman" who had just been enrolled in Hogwarts last night and became one of many Gryffindors.

"Good morning!" Helen waved happily to them.

Compared with yesterday's formality, she seems to be more cheerful and lively today. Perhaps it was because of the one night living in the dormitory that Hermione and the others clearly felt the difference.

The sense of distance between Helen and them is gradually disappearing with the increase of smiles.

"Ah, good morning, Helen." Hermione smiled, "Just call us by our names!"

"Oh! That's really great." Helen nodded repeatedly, "Hermione, Harry, and Ronald!"

"'Ron'" Hermione pointed at Ron and said with a playful smile, "Just call him 'Ron', we all call him that! If you call him by his real name, he won't be used to it!"

"No, no," Ron waved his hands quickly, "I think I'll get used to it... Or, if you like, please be sure to call me 'Ronald'!"

"Do you think you can really bear this name?" Hermione said unceremoniously, "Just call him 'Ron', otherwise he will get carried away!"

"Hmm..." Helen looked at Ron with some trouble, "Is it really possible?"

"Okay, okay... just call me 'Ron'!" Ron seemed to give up, and muttered dejectedly, "Is it true that I don't look like a 'ruler' at all...as long as I have Just a little bit!"

"Before thinking about 'ruler', let's set 'tyranny' and 'competence' as the goals of life!" Hermione said angrily, "You must have thought so when Mr. Weasley gave you this name! "

Harry stretched out his hand and patted Ron on the back, suppressed a smile and encouraged him, "Come on, I believe that sooner or later you will be worthy of the name 'Mr. Strong and Capable Ruler'!"

"Even you laughed at me! Are we still good buddies?" Ron grabbed Harry's neck and said angrily, "Hermione, what does Harry's name mean?"

"Hmm..." Hermione suffocated a smile, "I remember it as 'a bumpkin who stole birds' eggs'?"

Seeing the three of them starting to play tricks again, Helen couldn't help but giggled. It seems that as long as these three little lions are around, life will never lack joy.

"Hey! Let's go to breakfast! It's time for breakfast in a while..."

Under the urging of Harry with a black face, the four little wizards played and walked together to the side corridor leading to the auditorium.

But at this moment, a slightly thin figure came out from the doorway where Helen had come, and watched them disappear into the corner of the side corridor from a distance.

"Sokas? What are you doing standing here?"

Suddenly, a voice sounded from behind him. He reached out to his waist almost subconsciously, but then he lifted it up naturally, put it on his shoulder and rubbed it.

"Oh, Mr. Malfoy?" He turned his head and chuckled, "I may have had a stiff neck last night... The Hogwarts bed is much softer than the one I used to sleep on..."

That's right, this figure is that Minos student with a tongue-twisting name.

According to what Helen said, he seemed to be the head of the student council of Minos before, but now he is a sixth grader in Slytherin.

When he was in the atrium foyer of the Ministry of Magic that day, he was the one who came out to talk to Maca.

"You'll get used to it soon, Sokas," Malfoy stroked his short blond hair with his hand, and said with an elegant smile, "The living facilities at Hogwarts are very good. Our family has donated a lot of funds to the school.”

"Really?" Sokas nodded with a smile, "The conditions here are really good... Oh, yes! I've heard about Mr. Potter, is his... all right?"

As he asked, he pointed to his forehead and gestured to Malfoy.

"Hahaha, our Potter kid does have a problem with his head," Malfoy said happily, "I didn't expect you to understand this truth not long after you came here, just like I did back then. I realized early on that he is a 'pure blood' 'betrayer'."

"Oh?" Sokas seemed to be interested, "'Pure blood betrayer'...how do you say that?"

"As a pure-blooded wizard, that guy always hangs out with mixed-bloods, even mudbloods?" Malfoy pouted and said disdainfully, "His behavior itself is defiled." Our holy and noble family of pure-blood wizards!"

"Hmm..." Sokas said thoughtfully, "That's really too bad..."

"But...although I have always wanted to teach that pure-blooded scum a lesson, but you must remember," Malfoy suddenly approached Sokas, and whispered, "Don't get too close to that Harry Potter , and his filthy friends are the same, the backers behind them are not easy to mess with!"

"Backer?" Sokas seemed to be thinking about something, and said a little absent-mindedly, "Who is it?"

"...Maka McLean," Malfoy looked around habitually when the name was mentioned, and then continued, "It's the current professor of ancient runes. Listen, don't mess with that guy. The best way is to avoid him forever!"

"Forever? Isn't that a bit too much?" Sokas laughed, "He must be very powerful to be a professor at Hogwarts at such a young age... But no matter what, he won't Do you do something that hurts the students?"

"Hmph! I've never seen any scruples before!" Malfoy snorted angrily, "Anyway, you're right! My father told me that too. If it wasn't for your pleasing eyes, I wouldn't be so Kindly tell you!"

"Of course, thank you for your attention," Sokas nodded slightly towards Malfoy, "I will send the interesting necklace mentioned last night to my family as soon as possible."

"Haha, I've said it all, don't be so polite," Malfoy said happily, "Unlike that Potter boy, you are an excellent pure-blood wizard. I believe that in the days to come, the relationship between us There will be a wonderful spark of friendship!"

"Aren't we already friends?" Sokas spread his hands and said with a smile.

...

On the other side, as soon as the three of Hermione and Helen entered the auditorium, they noticed a special sense of tension. Most of the students in the auditorium gathered in groups of three or five, chattering and discussing something, and the scene seemed chaotic.

They had just found a gap at the long Gryffindor table when Fred, George, Neville and Ginny rushed over together.

"Did you all see that?" asked Fred hurriedly.

"She really already knows, right?" George added tacitly as usual.

"So... what should we do?" Neville still looked a little timid, and he also whispered.

Everyone was watching Harry and Hermione anxiously, and Fred glanced around warily, as if to make sure that no professor was nearby.

Hermione looked at them, but her eyes subconsciously glanced at Helen, wondering if she should avoid this cheerful and lovely little girl.

"Of course it will continue." Harry didn't pay attention to Helen, he just moved closer to Fred and the others, and whispered, "This must not stop us, can it?"

"We knew that would be what you said." George said cheerfully, and stretched out his finger, poking Harry's rib heavily.

"Where are the two prefects? You also have to continue" Fred looked at Hermione and Ron, but when he noticed the curious Helen, he stopped talking involuntarily.

"What are you talking about?" Helen looked from one side to the other, and asked with some doubts, "What do you want to 'continue'?"

"Uh..." Hermione hesitated, "well, actually..."

"Oh no, no need," Helen seemed to see Hermione's hesitation, and hurriedly waved her hands to stop, "If it's an important secret, you don't have to tell me it's fine... We just met, it's my wife I'm familiar with it."

"No, that..."

Seeing that Helen knew how to measure, Hermione felt as if she had done something wrong.

But even so, right now this matter really needs to be more cautious. Especially since Umbridge obviously already knew about it, so there was no surprise.

"...Well, I'm sorry..." Hermione said guiltily, "Wait a little longer... When the situation settles down, I will definitely invite you, Helen, to join me! I promise!"

"It's all right!" Helen said with a sweet smile, "Well, let's talk first... I'll go over there and have a look, maybe I can make a few more friends!"

After saying that, she immediately took two steps back, then turned around lightly, and walked to the other side.

"Oh" Hermione said apologetically, "What a nice girl!"

"Yeah... oh, Ernie and Hannah are coming this way too," Ron turned his head, just in time to see a few figures on the other side, "well... and Ravenclaw's... oh! Zacharias Smith!"

When he saw the person he least wanted to see, Ron couldn't help looking at Hermione.

"You didn't tell me just now! What will happen to the informer?"

However, Hermione's eyes were full of panic.

"There will be two runes on the cheeks, itchy and painful... Now is not the time to talk about this! Those fools, you can't come here now, it's too suspicious, go back!" She said to Ernie and Hannah. gesticulating and lip-synching to try to get them to understand, "Wait until you get back to me later!") Download Free Reader!!
