Chapter 412 The Quidditch Game Is About to Begin
"Hiss, Ron, it's a bit cold."
Harry and Ron walked out of the castle to prepare for the Herbology class, but were stopped by a cold wind.
"Yeah, time flies so fast, I don't know when the fireplace will be lit," Ron also hugged himself, "It would be great to go to the library to read books at this time, I hope it's warmer in the greenhouse."
It was November, and the temperature dropped sharply. The clothes that were quite warm yesterday could not block the cold wind all of a sudden.
While complaining, he cast a look of help to Hermione, "Hermione, please, can you make some flames?"
In the first grade, they used the flames in the bottle that Hermione conjured to keep warm. Although everyone is in the third grade now, Ron still can't do that magic.
He did read it, but because that thing was not within the scope of the exam, and it was not among the evil curses that he was good at, so he still hasn't learned it so far.
But Hermione ignored his look of help - to be precise, Hermione was confused and didn't know what she was thinking at this moment.
"Harry," Ron poked Harry, his voice very low, "That flame, please."
'You have to find an excuse to make peace, Ron, this guy,' Harry thought helplessly. He didn't believe that Ron couldn't cast a spell, but he had to help. 'Maybe this is the best way to please that guy, although he probably still has to grab the first place in his current state. '
"Hermione, please, some flame."
Harry said to Hermione after a detour.
"Huh?"
Hermione was stunned for a while, and it took her a while to realize what Harry said. She easily made a flame, but she was still in a trance. "Is this the Herbology class?"
"Of course, herbs, there are only a few of them outside the castle."
Ron responded in a low voice, but Hermione ignored him and began to trance again.
"You are simply..."
Harry sighed. He didn't know how to deal with this contradiction. Hermione finally found some confidence in the Transfiguration class, but was crushed to death by Ron in the spell.
Moreover, Hermione looks dull this semester, often distracted and forgetful, and her whereabouts are uncertain, so the time we spend together in class is much less than last school year.
"She has many subjects that she is good at, Harry, and don't you find that Hermione's schedule is too strange? It seems that she can take any elective class."
Ron scratched his head helplessly, "I suspect that he is cursed by some learning ghost, otherwise why is he in this state day after day."
"How can there be such a ghost? Didn't the Ripper hang out with ghosts every day for a while, and he was fine?"
"Maybe he is studying the conversion of life and death to prepare to revive ghosts," Ron joked, "but I am not the only one who guesses so, the seniors also say so."
"Isn't it unlikely?"
Harry immediately refused to accept this outrageous thing.
"George and Fred said that they have always been unreliable, but this year is their OWLs year, so they should be more stable."
"And Percy didn't deny it. He said that the textbooks for senior grades have been temporarily revised. This year, the enzyme transfiguration will be an important test point for NEWTs."
Ron waved his hand, "Anyway, Percy said that the Gamp law in the senior transfiguration textbook has been directly rewritten."
"Gamp's law of transfiguration," Hermione suddenly interrupted the conversation, "It should be that the first law, living food, cannot be transformed, but it has been rewritten, and it may need to be revised later."
"Hermione, you know?"
Harry's eyes widened, but he was not surprised that Hermione knew it, but that she suddenly woke up and joined the conversation-anyway, he was used to the fact that Hermione knew everything.
"I saw it during self-study, but I can't understand it at all," Hermione sighed, "I really don't know why he came back to class again. Is it really necessary for him to continue taking Transfiguration classes?"
"Then I don't know. What's over there?"
Harry shook his head and turned his eyes to the other side - a huge carriage was parked there, and some house elves were busy unloading there.
"Hagrid is over there!"
The Seeker showed his professionalism and found Hagrid directing the carriage.
Ron and Harry ran over quickly. Hermione looked at the greenhouse, then at the two of them, and finally chose to take a hot dog out of her schoolbag and stuff it into her mouth quickly.
She was sleepy and hungry now, and she had to replenish some food - after several months, she had gotten used to putting snacks in her schoolbag and replenishing them when she had time, otherwise she would have to go to class hungry.
She took an extra elective class last class, but she was blocked by Harry and the others without eating, so she had to eat quickly now.
"Here, Hermione!"
Harry turned around and started to greet them, but Hermione had already finished her meal quickly. She trotted over and found that what was unloaded was a pile of rare potion ingredients.
As the best potion expert among her classmates, she easily identified these things.
"Hagrid, what is this?"
"The school ordered a lot of potion materials, and the quantity was a little more. I helped to receive them," Hagrid replied with a smile. He didn't lose his position as gamekeeper and key keeper, but was just a part-time professor, so the important work was still in his hands.
"Why does Snape need so many potion ingredients?"
"It's not Professor Snape," Hagrid waved his hand, "You shouldn't ask who it is."
——
"It's mysterious, and it's carried secretly, as if it's shady," Ron shook his head, "Such a load of raw materials will probably cost a lot of gold."
"Is it expensive?"
Harry looked at Ron.
"It's very expensive. Percy made a lot of Galleons by speculating on this before. As Fred said, there are many potion ingredients that we have never used in class."
Ron said casually, "But I have a guess."
The other two looked at Ron.
"Fred and the others said that Taylor has been very close to Snape recently, and the two of them might be tinkering with the resurrection ceremony."
"With Snape, really or not?"
"What the two of them said must be correct."
"More like doing something bad," Harry said with suspicion on his face, "I'm not sure."
But the voice of greeting sounded from behind, "You two!"
Their captain Wood quickly approached, "I almost forgot to inform you, the first official game is coming soon, Ravenclaw vs. Hufflepuff, go and see, Ravenclaw is said to have changed its broomsticks this year!" "
He finished the notification in a hurry and ran away in a hurry.
But the style has completely changed - intrigue and speculation have been replaced by Quidditch.
Hermione sighed slightly, and then continued to seize the time to relax herself. Time was limited, and she had to let her brain rest for a while.
