Chapter 253 A More Reliable Arithmetic and Divination Class

Everyone was shocked and their hairs were terrified.

But Professor Trelawney just didn't open his mouth, just to hang everyone's temper.

Finally, she murmured: "A crooked cross... darling, you're going to have 'tribulation and pain', but there's also a sun thing...wait... that means 'huge Joy'?"

Professor Trelawney was a little confused.

Hermione snorted coldly: "Painful yet happy?" She amplified her voice so that everyone could hear her on purpose.

Harry and Ron looked at her in a mixture of surprise and admiration.They had never heard Hermione talk like that to a teacher before, not even Snape.Professor Trelawney ignored her, she stared at her terrifyingly big eyes, carefully looked at the teacup in her hand, and continued to turn the teacup around.

"Bloody disaster? Strange, how come there are bloody disasters every month?" Professor Trelawney looked at Lu Ren, his big eyes were full of doubts: Isn't this little wizard too unlucky?Why is there a bloodbath every month?

She originally wanted to scare these little wizards with a big bad omen, but unexpectedly, she actually saw something.

Lu Ren: Could it be...

He glanced at Hermione, Hermione's entire face had turned red, she stomped Lu Ren's foot under the table, Lu Ren suddenly became short of breath.

"Son, don't be nervous. Although the hexagram is very unfavorable... a bludgeon... an attack, my God, this is not a pleasant cup!" Trelawney obviously misunderstood Lu Ren's expression, but this It does not prevent her from continuing to give ominous predictions.

Everyone stared blankly at Professor Trelawney, who turned the cup one last time and took a deep breath.Suddenly there was a crisp sound of broken china in the classroom, and Neville shattered his second cup as well.This made the atmosphere in the classroom even more tense.

Professor Trelawney sank into an empty armchair, put his left hand to his chest, and closed his eyes.

"Son, poor, dear child, your hexagram, no, I can't tell...don't ask me—"

"What is it, Professor?" In this case, there is always someone who sets off the atmosphere, and today's atmosphere group is Dean Thomas.Apparently he asked something that everyone was concerned about. Everyone stood up, gathered around Lu Ren and Hermione's table, approached Professor Trelawney's chair, and carefully looked at "Lu Ren"'s teacup.

"My dear," said Professor Trelawney, snapping her eyes open, "you have 'ominous'."

"What?" Lu Ren and Hermione asked in unison.

Everyone's movements and expressions were surprisingly consistent: they looked confused and covered their mouths with their hands in horror.It can be seen that they don't know what the unknown is, but they are afraid.

"Ominous, ominous!" Professor Trelawney yelled, her face full of disappointment, as if a cross talk actor had shaken a bag vigorously but it didn't ring.She seemed shocked to see that no one understood.

"Death! My dear boy, it is an omen--the worst omen--the omen of death!"

Lu Ren's heart tightened. There was a sign of death in Hermione's cup?But Hermione was obviously not intimidated, she stood up, walked around behind Professor Trelawney's chair, and glanced at the glass.

"I don't think it's ominous," she said calmly.

Professor Trelawney's dislike for Hermione had reached its peak, and she looked at Hermione.Then he glanced into the teacup in Lu Ren's hand.

She laughed.

"Forgive me for saying this, dear, but I see that the aura around you is very small, and you don't have much perception of the future. And your cup, it shows that you don't belong here, you are alien to the outside world."

Hermione also laughed: "So the teacup didn't tell you that the cup in my hand is actually my teacup?"

"what?"

Trelawney looked shocked: You didn't play the cards according to the routine!What about exchanging teacups?

Lu Ren also grinned: "Then logically, there should be an omen of death in my cup, because nothing will happen to Hermione before I die."

Trelawney: I don't quite get it, but I was blown away.

"I think this is the end of today's class," Professor Trelawney found that he seemed to be playing off, so he said in a particularly vague voice, "Yes... please pack your things..."

The students returned the tea cups to Professor Trelawney in silence, packed up their books, closed their schoolbags, and then left silently, the air was full of embarrassment.

"Until we next meet," said Professor Trelawney feebly, "good luck."

Lu Ren and Hermione walked down the ladder of the divination classroom without saying a word, and walked down the spiral staircase. Next, they had to travel through time and space to attend the arithmetic and divination class.

It can be said that after these two classes, even Lu Ren and Hermione were a little tired.But it is still very comfortable to be able to escape from the divination classroom and breathe the fresh air outside.

They turned a few corners, managed to get rid of Harry and Ron who were trying to keep up, then put on the invisibility cloak, and went back to two hours ago.

On the way to the arithmetic and divination class, the two also chatted, which was naturally about the divination class just now.

"She's an old liar!" Hermione said indignantly.

"I don't think so. Although she said a lot of nonsense in class today, she is a professor hired by Dumbledore after all, and she has been teaching at the school for more than ten years." In my heart, I still don't believe what Professor Trelawney said. She said it clearly in class today, but she didn't even notice that he and Hermione changed cups.Of course, that monthly bloody disaster really showed him, maybe that was the only truth she said.

"It's not the first time that Professor Dumbledore has misunderstood, last year, the year before last..." Obviously, Hermione's trust in Dumbledore has shaken a bit.

"And anyway, the class is totally pointless!"

Hermione gave the Divination class a death sentence.

As she was walking on the road, she suddenly remembered a sentence Lu Ren said in class, and a blush appeared on her face for no reason: it feels good to meet someone you can rely on in this strange world.

"Okay, cheer up and go to the last class. I think the arithmetic and divination class should be more reliable, after all, the word arithmetic is included."

"I hope." Hermione looked hopeless. It seemed that she had lost confidence in the courses with the words "divination class".

But not long after the class started, Hermione's views on the arithmetic and divination class changed drastically.

Arithmetic and divination classes are much more reliable than divination classes!This is Hermione's conclusion.
