Chapter 560 What Are You Hiding From Us?

Looking at the two people who were like living treasures, Ivan shook his head helplessly.

The three of them waited at the entrance for a while. Harry, Hermione and others came through the wall one after another, followed by Bill, Charlie, and the Weasleys.

Everyone said their final goodbyes in front of the train, and Mrs. Weasley gave everyone a warm hug.

Charlie said with a smile as he hugged Ginny and said goodbye to her. "I think we won't be apart for too long. Maybe I will meet you again soon!"

"Why do you say that?" Fred asked strangely.

"You'll find out when we get to school!" Charlie shrugged, and then added. "By the way, don't tell Percy that I mentioned this...you know, this is 'top secret information and will not be released until the Ministry of Magic deems it appropriate'."

"If I had a choice, I really hope I can go back to Hogwarts to go to school this year." Bill on the side also looked at the Hogwarts train in front of him with emotion, looking a little melancholy.

The mysterious appearance of the two people aroused everyone's interest, making George, Harry and others very curious.

"What are you hiding from us?" George glared at the two of them angrily and asked relentlessly.

However, no matter how he asked, Charlie and Bill acted like it was a secret that was not convenient to disclose, which made George and others very depressed.

Ivan was not involved because he knew that what Charlie and Bill were hiding was the Triwizard Tournament to be held this year!

Although "activities" such as fighting fire dragons, fighting mermaids, and entering mazes can only be regarded as small scenes in Ivan's eyes, to other wizards, they are indeed thrilling events worthy of a big event!

Woo woo

Just when Bill and Charlie were about to be annoyed to death by George and others, a high-pitched whistle sounded, and billowing steam floated down the train chimney into the sky. Mrs. Weasley quickly interrupted everyone's conversation and drove them away. Got in the car.

"Really, they must know something, but they want to hide it from us." Ron complained as he dragged his luggage down the aisle of the train.

"Yeah, that's not fair!" Fred also echoed dissatisfiedly. Charlie and Bill aroused his curiosity, making him feel itchy while talking.

Harry was not too curious about this matter, but turned to look at Ivan and asked. "Ivan, where did you go during the summer vacation? Why didn't you come to the Burrow? Sirius even bought you Quidditch tickets. It's a pity that they were all wasted."

"Yes, you missed this year's Quidditch World Cup! That game was so exciting! You should really come and see it."

Ron heard Harry mention the Quidditch game and hurriedly joined in, talking endlessly about the wonderful match between Ireland and Bulgaria in the World Cup!

Especially when Krum was mentioned, Ron seemed very excited. He loudly talked about how Klum used Wronski's fake move on the court to successfully deceive Ireland's Seeker Aidan Lin. Qi, let the other party fall heavily to the ground.

"After that, Krum successfully caught the Golden Snitch to end the game!" Ron concluded in the end, as enthusiastically as if he had caught the Golden Snitch in the World Cup.

"But I heard that the Irish team won, right?" Ivan replied casually, wanting to test whether his butterfly would affect the progress of the game.

If he remembered correctly, in this game, although Krum of the Bulgarian team successfully caught the Golden Snitch, he still lost the game because the score was lower than that of the Irish team.

"Then it's not Krum's fault, is it? He has done well enough but the other players in the Bulgarian team did not cooperate well!"

Ron screamed loudly for Krum, why at the end of the game the score difference was very small, and the Bulgarian batter scored two more goals and Krum could turn defeat into victory, etc.

Ivan rolled his eyes, not wanting to hear about Krum's glorious record at all. He looked directly at Harry and opened his mouth to explain. "Professor Dumbledore gave me a special training this summer. I really don't have time to watch the Quidditch match."

It was not convenient for Ivan to disclose matters related to Nick Flamel, so he could only pass the blame to Dumbledore.

Anyway, even if the old professor knew it, he wouldn't explain it, so there's no need to worry about the risk of being exposed.

"So that's it. No wonder you didn't reply to us during the whole summer vacation!" Harry nodded.

"Reply?!" Ivan was stunned.

"Yes! I didn't wait for you during our Quidditch match, so I sent you a few letters. But after waiting for a long time, I didn't even get your reply!"

Harry explained something, and then smiled and told Ivan the interesting things that happened when they were guests at the Burrow.

For example, once, they finally found an owl. Hermione mistakenly thought it was a letter from Ivan and happily went to get it. However, when she opened it, she found that it was from Sirius.

Harry kept talking, but before he could finish his words, he was frightened into silence by Hermione's fierce look.

Ivan was confused. He finally remembered what he had forgotten. It turned out that he had forgotten to write a letter to Hermione during the summer vacation!

But it's not entirely his fault.

Everything was fine originally, after all, who knew that so many messy things would happen when I returned home.

He, a little wizard who had just entered fourth grade, had become the King of Knockturn Alley inexplicably. He was forced to scheming with his restless subordinates every day. His head was getting big, and he could not remember anything about writing letters.

"I'm sorry, Hermione, Professor Dumbledore brought me to a very special place, so I can't receive your letters at all, and my owl can't fly out," Ivan said with a guilty conscience.

"Then you should have informed me before you went, I mean, informed us!" Hermione looked very unhappy, staring at Ivan with her brown eyes and retorted.

Ivan was immediately speechless. He simply forgot about the matter. Of course, it was impossible to inform Hermione.

Without a response from Ivan, how could Hermione not understand what was going on.

"So you just forgot again, right? You do this every time." The little witch snorted angrily, turned her face away, hugged her luggage, and walked towards the empty box in front of her. She was still heavy when passing by Ivan. Hit him on the shoulder.

"Oh my god, Hals, you actually forgot all of us!" George pretended to be angry and walked up, scolding Ivan severely.

The same was true for Fred. The two of them cursed Ivan in unison, deliberately speaking loudly so that Hermione could hear him.

But Hermione didn't even look at them, she walked straight into the box and closed the door hard.

The Weasley brothers calmed down and gave him helpless, self-satisfied looks.

What they did just now was not only to scold Ivan to calm Hermione down, but also to let Hermione know that Ivan was not targeting her deliberately. Even friends like them did not wait for a reply. They were probably delayed by something. .

But now it seems that it doesn't have any effect

"Alas, we can only do so much, please give me some advice!" Fred looked like someone who had come before him, patted Ivan on the shoulder, and then pulled George to find a seat.

Of course Ivan could understand George and Fred's good intentions. Looking at the closed door of the carriage where Hermione was sitting, Ivan also had a headache. How could he forget about writing the letter?

Harry and Ron were also hesitant to step forward. They all saw Hermione's face just now, and no one wanted to go in and get into trouble.

"Ivan, do we still want to go in?" Harry asked when he noticed that the train was honking its whistle again and preparing to start.

"How about we find another empty box?" Ron suggested.

Ivan shook his head, reached out and pushed open the door of the box. He looked around. At this time, Hermione was sitting in the corner on the right, quietly flipping through a thick book.

Although she heard the door open, Hermione made no move to raise her head.

Ivan hesitated for a moment, then sat down next to the little witch.

Harry and Ron also walked in behind them, and sat down across from Ivan and Hermione timidly. Whether it was an illusion or not, they always felt an indescribable pressure spreading in the carriage.

The strange silence lasted for a long time, and the slightly crowded compartment echoed with the clicking sound of the train, occasionally mixed with the sound of Hermione turning the pages of a book.

It's just that neither Ivan, Harry nor Ron noticed that Hermione turned the pages of the book much faster than usual, and sometimes she flipped through several pages without even noticing.

"Sorry, Hermione, I promised to write to you during the summer vacation this year, but I forgot about it!" Ivan hesitantly broke the calm and spoke again.

Since this incident was originally caused by his mistake, Ivan naturally did not care about the issue of face and apologized very sincerely.

"So what then?" Hermione stopped turning the pages of the book, with a slightly annoyed look on her face.

Apologize? that's all?

During this summer vacation, she thought that Ivan would come to see the Quidditch World Cup, so she waited happily. However, Ivan did not show up on the day of departure.

Hermione was very disappointed and wanted to know why Ivan didn't come. She also expected that Ivan would keep his promise and send her a letter telling her all this.

As a result, she waited for two months and got nothing!

Ivan opened his mouth, intending to explain, but the words were stuck in his mouth and he could not speak.

Usually he can always find countless reasons to fool the other party, but today it doesn't work here for some reason.

"Yes, you are always like this, the year before last, last year, and this year you will forget every time!" Hermione said sarcastically.

"Okay, it was my fault the year before last, but didn't we stay together during the summer vacation last year? Besides, you know, I was not in the mood to write a letter in that case." Ivan replied helplessly.

"What?! You guys stayed together all summer last year?" Ron looked at the two of them in shock.

Harry also kept glancing back and forth between Ivan and Hermione with strange eyes.

"Can't you?" The little witch's cheeks suddenly turned red, and she threw the books in her hands at them angrily, glaring at them fiercely with her brown eyes.

"Okay!" Harry and Ron nodded wildly like chickens pecking at rice, swallowed what they wanted to ask again, and muttered dissatisfiedly.

It was obviously Ivan who made her angry, why did she get angry at them?
