Chapter 1575: A War Without a Winner (Part 27)

The trainee Aurors who had just finished their practical training today were walking back to the castle, chatting and laughing, but there were always a few exceptions.

"Are you okay?"

Harry looked at Ron, who was worried.

"Nothing."

"You don't look okay."

Ron opened his mouth but said nothing.

Harry remembered what happened before and frowned slightly to remind him: "Moody looks mad at you."

"I really didn't mean it?" Ron said dryly.

"What distracted you?" Harry asked in a low voice.

He actually noticed that Ron had been absent-minded recently, which made him unable to concentrate during Auror training and often made mistakes.

"Do you think Hermione has found her family?"

When the two came to the hall to eat, Ron, who was picking potatoes on his plate with a fork, suddenly asked. Although he wanted to pretend to ask casually, Harry could see that he cared about this matter, which was probably the main reason why he had been absent-minded recently.

Harry looked up at Ron, and after a long while he spoke to comfort him, "With Albert's help in finding people, Hermione will definitely be able to find her family."

"But they have been missing for several days, which is actually very abnormal."

Ron muttered and poked the potatoes on the plate with a fork. He also believed in Albert's ability to find people, but it was because of his belief that he felt that the search time was too long.

"Maybe it will take a long time to travel, after all, Australia and the UK are half a world apart."

It was not difficult for Harry to guess what Ron was worried about. If Hermione was replaced by Ginny, he would probably be as anxious as he was, but he still felt that Ron's worries were completely unnecessary. After all, Albert was married and had children. No matter how much Hermione liked him, it would be difficult for both parties to have a result, not to mention that Albert was a very loyal person and loved his wife very much.

"You're right."

There is no doubt that Harry's reason failed to convince Ron.

"If you really like Hermione, you should muster up the courage to try to pursue her." Harry looked around and made sure that no one was eavesdropping, and then lowered his voice to encourage.

"But, I..."

Ron was a little overwhelmed.

"Oh, be brave, Ron." Harry said angrily, "If you don't try, you will never have a chance."

"She likes Albert!" Ron was very depressed.

"It's not love, it's admiration, like Ginny used to, but so what, Albert is married." Harry looked at the decadent Ron, sighed softly, "Forget it, when Hermione comes back, let Ginny help you get some information, but I still think you should be brave enough to confess to Hermione."

"You don't understand."

"What?" Harry was stunned, "What don't you understand?"

Ron shook his head and didn't want to talk more.

Looking at the silent Ron, Harry was also silent. He didn't have any good way to deal with this matter.

"Don't be distracted during training, it's really dangerous."

Cedric sat down next to the two of them with a plate, looked at the silent Ron and said, "If you do it a few more times, Moody will definitely cancel your qualification as an apprentice Auror."

"I'll pay attention!" Ron said stiffly.

"Is Albert back?" Harry tried to change the subject.

"Not yet, he probably has something to do there, he should be back tomorrow, do you have anything to do with him?"

Although Cedric was also quite curious about where Albert had been these days, he also knew that it was Albert's private matter, so it was best not to ask around.

After all, before Albert left, he mentioned in advance that he might need to go out for a few days.

"No, I just want to ask if he helped Hermione find her family." Harry glanced at Ron and said.

Cedric was stunned for a moment, then smiled and comforted, "Don't worry, Albert will definitely help Miss Granger find her family."

Harry thought Cedric had probably misunderstood something, but he couldn't explain it, so he heard Cedric suddenly ask Ron, "Do you plan to move to our village like Harry did in the future?"

"What?"

Ron was stunned.

"You should have heard that we are building a wizard village."

Cedric lowered his voice and explained to Ron, "Harry, as long as you and Hermione are willing to go over and help, you can get your own house like other members."

Ron turned his head to look at Harry, confused, and didn't understand what Cedric was talking about.

"Well, it seems that you have to help build the wizard village in order to get the right to use the house." Harry heard about this from Albert and cast a puzzled look at Cedric, asking, "Can Hermione and Ron do it too?"

"Of course, Albert said that the three of you have made great contributions to defeating the mysterious man, and this is the reward you deserve."

Cedric knew the two people's doubts, briefly explained the specific situation to them, and asked Ron to think about it carefully, then picked up the plate and walked away.

"But we still have to go through Auror training, so we don't have time to help build the village." Ron was extremely distressed about this, "That guy didn't want us to settle down in the village at all."

"Ginny is helping with some simple chores over there." Harry said with embarrassment, "After the Auror training here is over, I will go over to help when I have time."

"Then what should I do?"

Ron suddenly wanted to give up his job as an Auror.

"Hermione should also go over to help." Harry looked at his decadent friend, and the meaning was already very clear. If they get married in the future, they can also settle down in the village.

Moreover, even if Ron doesn't go over to help, he can still settle down in the village, but there is no villa, so he can only live in an apartment.

"Harry, do you still have the Felicis Felix there?" Ron suddenly asked. He felt that if he wanted to confess to Hermione, it would be best to get the help of the Felicis Felix.

He actually regretted not keeping his share of the Felicis Felix now.

"It's all used up."

Harry guessed what Ron wanted to do with the Felicis Felix, but in a life-and-death battle like that, he wouldn't leave that thing behind.

"Hermione should be back soon, and when she comes back, I'll go and confess my feelings to her." Ron took a deep breath and said.

"Come on."

Harry actually didn't think highly of Ron's relationship with Hermione, but he knew very well that they had to make a break. Even if Hermione didn't intend to accept Ron's confession, Ron should be made to give up early. The friendship between the three of them couldn't withstand repeated tossing and turning.

Moreover, Ron has been absent-minded during training recently, and the dangerous job of Auror will never allow him to be distracted.

"I don't think Ron has much of a chance."

When talking to Ginny about Ron and Hermione's relationship, Ginny's face was full of sympathy and pity.

"You don't think it's a good thing?" Harry was a little surprised.

"Ron really doesn't have much of a chance, at least not now." Ginny shook her head.

"Why?" Harry asked in confusion, "Isn't Albert married?"

"Mr. Anderson is indeed married, but that doesn't mean Hermione has to like Ron, that big fool." Ginny sighed and explained to Harry, "Don't let Ron, that fool, confess to Hermione first. I'll go and test Hermione's attitude, so that Ron, that fool, won't confess recklessly and make the relationship awkward, which would be more trouble than gain."

"Then I'll leave it to you."
