A certain Hogwarts rune professor

Chapter 228 The Mystery of Time
At the same time, the ancient rune office.

Holding three bright rune symbols in her hand, Hermione watched them twirling non-stop, her eyes sparkling.

Felix was leaning against the desk, looking at a test paper, his fingers lightly wiped the last word, leaving light traces of ink, his eyes became strange.

He looked at the time, it was exactly eight o'clock, and the magic text teaching had just started.

'So, she came here in a hurry just after the test papers were out?Or --' Felix thought to himself, 'in this castle, there are two Grangers at the same time? '

He was a little itchy, what would happen if he summoned the Patronus to deliver a message to another Hermione, such as asking her to bring Harry's pocket looking glass along the way?
Felix waited quietly for 2 minutes, while Hermione was still enthusiastically practicing outlining the rune symbols in the air, without stopping at all, patted her forehead and said: Oh, professor, I almost forgot, this It's the looking glass you asked me to bring here...

'I know so little about the mechanics of the Time-Turner that I'm at a loss.But if I am in a time loop, there must be a starting point and an ending point, and when the ending point is reached, the two Grangers must return to the same position. '

Felix thought silently, but he still couldn't make a move because he didn't know the consequences of doing so. Presumably, this is why Granger didn't suddenly take out a looking glass from his pocket...

That's not his style at all.

"professor--"

Felix was shocked. He looked up, and the little witch was pointing at a sea-blue rune symbol in her hand. "I think there is something wrong here. Isn't the conversion of magic power very smooth?"

He was slightly disappointed, but he still explained gently: "This rune symbolizes water flow, and it can also represent the ocean and heart. You have to try to understand its meaning deeply. This is a wonderful feeling. Sometimes you just I understood immediately."

"But in any case, the meaning of the rune is a key to understanding the rune."

"I see, Professor!" Hermione said happily, "I have some ideas. When I was young, I saw many rivers, lakes, and seas with my family. I think it will help?"

"Yes, you can retrieve this part of cognition." Felix agreed.

The next rune guide is as usual, but Felix has different expectations in his heart, and he will look up at the wall clock on the wall from time to time.

The time came to 09:30, and tonight's class was almost over, but Felix still couldn't help mentioning: "Miss Granger, you are already very tired, why don't you have some snacks and watch an episode of animation Movie?"

If Hermione agrees, he will gently remind her to watch the time and see her reaction...

Hermione showed a heart-beating expression, but she glanced at the time quickly and covertly, "Oh, no, Professor, I have something to do. Before nine fifty..." She paused for breath, "I mean, ten o'clock It's lights out."

Felix nodded, "I was negligent." He watched Hermione leave, and it seemed that the speculation was true, he was really in a time loop, and, very likely, his little assistant was in the nine The time converter used at point fifty, went back to two hours ago.

In other words, she returned to his office at [-]:[-] and reported to his office with a test paper with ink still in it...

After thinking about it, he cast a disillusionment spell, silence spell, concealment spell, and no-peer spell on himself... After making all preparations, he walked out of the office.

Felix followed Hermione far away like a real ghost, and seven or eight minutes later, outside the Gryffindor common room, he saw Hermione hiding behind a doorpost.

' She picked a good place, without any portraits around. '

Soon, a person emerged from the common room, it was the second Hermione Granger!

Felix couldn't hide the shock in his heart. Although he knew that Hermione would hold the Time-Turner as early as the beginning of the school year, or even the last school year, this was the first time he had seen its effect intuitively.

He dismissed the idea of ​​his imminent move again, watching her walk past the doorpost without looking sideways, and the other Hermione hurriedly hid.

In his sight, Hermione Granger, who had just come out of the lounge, was standing in the corner, turning a golden chronograph, she turned twice, accompanied by the slight sound of gears turning, her figure suddenly appeared disappeared.

Felix's eyes were about to pop out, but he found nothing, as if he was observing a cloud of air, and everything just now was a memory he had woven for himself.

Hermione poked her head out from behind the doorpost and hurried back to the lounge.

Felix could still hear the grumbling voice of the Fat Lady's portrait at the door: "Why did you just go out and come back, you little wizards..."

"Auspicious stars are shining." Hermione said the password quickly, and the fat lady reluctantly stepped aside.

Felix returned to the office lightly on his feet, and the shock in his heart did not diminish in the slightest. This was a power he had never touched, and it was the mystery of time.

"Time, time! I should be in awe of time, stop this matter here, and don't take any risks." Felix warned himself that his assistant was already very serious and responsible, so he couldn't trick her.

If because of his mistake, the little witch was thrown into the turbulent time, where would he find it?

But his mind quickly floated, and he couldn't help thinking: "If I can get a time converter from other places, will it be all right? The Ministry of Magic, the ancient pure-blood family, or the ancient There is even a slight possibility of a wizard's tomb... This matter must be carefully planned and not acted rashly!"

……

The next day Felix made his usual trip to St. Mungo's.

Old Mrs. Longbottom combed Alice's hair carefully, but there was still a lot of hair stuck to the comb. She said with a wry smile: "I really hope they get better soon, they will get rid of the side effects of the Cruciatus Curse, Yes or no?"

"Yes," Felix said, "They are like walking dead now, unable to control the magic power in their bodies. Once their memories are restored, many methods can be used."

Old Mrs. Longbottom let out a sigh of relief.

During this period, the Longbottoms' therapist Meliam came over. She was a very friendly witch, but she still gave Felix a suspicious look.

"The "conditioning expert" hired by Mrs. Longbottom is too young, but it does have some effect..."

Meliam tentatively asked about healing magic, and Felix casually added some superficial knowledge of blood magic, which made her look dazed.

"...I tried to awaken the remaining subconsciousness of their bodies, and coordinated with mobilizing their own magic power..." Felix talked eloquently. In fact, this is not wrong, but he played a trick and did not say that most of his time All playing with their memories.

After Meliam left, Felix said to Mrs. Longbottom: "The first paper has been sent out, and it may be brewing for a while."

Old Mrs. Longbottom said puzzledly: "Felix, I've always wanted to ask you, why didn't you send it later, until the treatment is over?"

"Because I can't hide it," Felix explained. "According to my estimation, the reaction of Frank and Alice will be obvious by the end of next month at the latest. It is impossible for St. Mungo not to find out."

"Although the truth can be told, we still have to consider the worst case scenario, which is that St. Mungo's vetoes my treatment plan, and Frank and Alice cannot do without St. Mungo's care at present...

You can also think that I am used to making some preparations in advance-although my thesis only has a theoretical part, few people can pick mistakes. "

Felix smiled and said: "But once someone does it, it's groundbreaking, and St. Mungo's will be happy to keep us."
