Archdruid of Hogwarts

Chapter 54 Life Counselor

"Ernie, you are distracted, where is your cooking professionalism!?" Hannah expressed her dissatisfaction. Obviously the real reason was not the food.

Hermione was more straightforward and shouted: "The vegetables are mushy!"

Well, Ernie admitted that this girl actually has a humorous and fun-loving side.

"Impossible! A man like me, who is already running on the road of being a chef, will not cook the food even if he is asleep."

Hermione curled her lips: "You have come back to your senses. Tell me, who are you thinking of? Is it that Aina from the third year of Ravenclaw?"

Hannah's expression immediately became wary, staring at Ernie aggressively, as if she would utter an 'ahhh' at the slightest dissatisfaction.

Ernie said helplessly: "Come on, Aina loves candy, so she's buying candy from me."

Hannah curled her lips and muttered: "I love sweets, but I'm just greedy. If I buy them, I'm afraid I'll beg for them!"

Hermione asked again: "What about Calia, the fifth-year Gryffindor?"

Hannah's eyes suddenly opened wide again, staring eagerly.

Ernie didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Kalia asked me if I would have gold gallon hair for Halloween next year. If so, she would like to plan how to spend it."

Hannah bluffed: "Is she asking? She is suggesting that you give her some money. If you encounter such a shameless person in the future, don't say anything more!"

Hermione tried to save Ernie's face and said, "Drink, is this too much? Why do you manage it so confidently?"

"You are not doing the same thing, spying and investigating!"

"That's better than you. He's right next to you. He can't even keep an eye on anyone. He doesn't know what he's doing all day long!"

"Um……"

"whispering sound!"

The eyes were like electric discharges, energy waves clashed with each other, and plasma overflowed, just like the famous scene in the original historical line where Dumbledore confronted Voldemort at the Ministry of Magic...

"Oh, okay, okay! It's time to eat, it's time to eat!"

"Hmph!" The two girls snorted at Ernie in unison and turned away.

"Help me serve the food, really." Ernie said with a strong face.

After the meal, while Hannah was washing the dishes and Hermione went to take a rest, Justin patted Ernie on the shoulder and said seriously: "You're going to have problems sooner or later."

Harry and Ron also nodded sympathetically.

Ernie pouted: "I just want to be hard, what's wrong!?"

"Shameless!"

"Thick skin"

"Scumbag!"

Ernie looked like a scumbag and a proud man.

In fact, he really thought about it.

According to his analysis, in the end, he would probably be with Hannah.

Hermione has high self-esteem and strong career ambitions. If he hesitates to express his position, Hermione will probably be unable to bear it and leave voluntarily.

Hannah, on the other hand, understood her position and the means to achieve her goals early on. She took care of the house and became a housekeeper.

As for holding back on saying something nice, it could be emotionally damaging to Hannah.

He feels that in this life, love is inevitable, and it is not good to have nothing at all. It is easy to get, do not know how to cherish, and it is easy to indulge.

Although he admitted that this pretentious statement was a bit offensive, this was him, and he did not give equal status to women. He only allowed state officials to set fires, but not ordinary people to light lamps. But that's how it is in a patriarchal society. He won't pamper the other person to the sky, and even the purity of this love is not enough.

But he believes that he also has his own dedication, which is to be durable and not to cheat, whether it is body or mind. Unless both Hermione and Hannah left him, he would not have any further entanglements with other women.

To put it more pretentiously, women would only affect the speed at which he drew his sword.

To put it simply, it was because of his experience before his rebirth that he had a profound understanding, that is, the older he gets, the lonelier he becomes and the less likely he is to make friends.

How can I explain the past that has accumulated for half a lifetime? There is so much to say that I don’t know where to start. But if we don’t explain it clearly, it will be difficult to get into each other’s hearts...

Burned out and don’t want to start from scratch. This is the weight of time.

That is, it is most suitable to accompany him from the beginning.

Know what you should know and what you shouldn't know. It can be said that the price is no passion.

Passion is exciting and short-lived, and he does not pursue it.

Being able to tolerate each other's nature and get used to each other's life can only last long, and this is what he wants.

Of course, there is also a nurturing complex here. After all, he is mentally more mature and dominant.

He felt that it was fine to just go this way in life.

Some people accompany him for a journey, and some people accompany him for a lifetime. He can recognize them.

But this has nothing to do with Justin and the others. How can their children understand the importance of time? And the truth that he is too lazy to fall in love?

So he changed the subject and asked: "Stop talking about me, talk about you two. You came very late today. What happened?"

Ron said: "It's not because of Snape, he wants to murder Harry!"

"Call him by his first name, not even professor. It's so painful and hateful."

Ron snorted: "You don't know how annoying Snape is!"...

Next, the complaint process entered.

Hermione just happened to be back too, giving her another angle to observe and talk to.

The story is actually simple. It's nothing more than Snape deliberately looking for trouble in Potions class for the pleasure of humiliating Harry.

This caused the Iron Triangle to incorporate too many subjective emotions when analyzing things, and blamed Snape for some things caused by Voldemort's servant (Quirrell), such as Harry's headache.

The closest thing is the football match incident.

During the Quidditch match, Quirrell cast a spell on Harry, trying to cause an accident. Snape, who swore to protect Harry, found out and chanted a spell to stop it.

The two forces competed, and the person involved, Harry, was embarrassed, but he still won the Golden Snitch.

At the same time, Hermione happened to set a fire under Snape's feet. Snape stood up suddenly, affecting Quirrell who was sitting high behind him. The spell stopped and the blame was firmly placed on his back.

Justin and Hannah were very angry after hearing the statements made by the three Harrys one by one. They shared the same hatred and felt that Snape was unreasonable.

Zhou Ning listened to his talk while taking action. He made a small toy on the spot, a round piece of paper with a cage on one side and a bird on the other. The two ends were pulled by a rope. When the rope was twisted, the paper would spin.

Wait until Harry and the others have finished venting their feelings.

Ernie demonstrated the toy to several people: "The cage is independent, and so is the bird. But if I twist it like this..."

When the paper is turned back and forth at high speed, what people see is the bird in the cage.

"A very simple visual deception trick. But it can tell us that sometimes what the eyes see is not necessarily the truth."

The little wizards were thoughtful, and Hermione, the top student, took the lead in speaking: "Are you saying that there was actually someone else who harmed Harry?"

Justin was more straightforward: "So, was it Professor Snape who murdered Harry at the ball game?"

"Don't rush to affirm or deny something. Moreover, a single perspective is often one-sided. It is necessary to demonstrate from multiple perspectives and ask more questions about why."

Ernie turned to another topic and said: "Being steady and reliable in words and deeds, and being responsible in times of trouble is a sign of maturity. Everyone is willing to trust such a person, right?"

Harry nodded.

"So, how do you show yourself to be steady and reliable in words and deeds?"

Hermione and the others were all talking and talking.

Ernie concluded: "Actually, it's very simple to put it bluntly. There are only two things. 1. What he says is basically right. 2. What he does is basically successful."

After a moment of silence, Hannah and the others nodded. Justin was as straightforward as ever: "Just like you."

Ernie smiled: "Thank you for the compliment. Since you said so, let me tell you why I can do this."

Hermione and the others showed interested expressions.

"The reasons behind this are divided into appearance and essence. Let's talk about appearance first.

I can sum it up simply by saying, “Be careful in your words and deeds.” "

Ernie paused before further explaining: "On the surface, I am a talker and like to preach, but in fact, what I said are practical theories that have been tested repeatedly.

More importantly, I know when to use these theories.

So it seems that I can always say the right thing and always get things done. "

Ernie spoke very slowly, just to make it easier for the little wizards to remember and digest.

"I believe that you are all willing to be successful, to be admired and respected by others, and to have a sense of accomplishment yourself. Then the question becomes. How to do it specifically? This involves the essence.

But before that, let us turn the topic back to the series of things that happened to Harry. Ernie paused again before continuing:

"Hannah, Justin, have you ever investigated what happened to Harry?"

Hannah and Justin looked at each other and shook their heads.

"Then why do you believe that Harry and the others are telling the truth? Is it out of trust in your friends?"

The two nodded.

"Then let me ask you a question, is what my friend said necessarily correct?

Or to put it another way, are Harry and Ron's exam answer sheets correct? "

"..." Harry and Ron looked at each other, feeling offended.

Ernie didn't wait for Hannah and Justin to tell the answer, and continued: "Now, we are not talking about lies and deception. What we are talking about is that friends can make mistakes unintentionally.

If the information provided by your friend is wrong, will it increase the possibility of failure in the game or adventure, or simply fail?

If the answer is yes, then it is bound to bring some reflection.

First of all, the person who provided wrong information obviously failed to be careful in his words and deeds.

Secondly, anyone who easily trusts information and even passes it on to his friends commits the mistake of spreading rumors based on hearsay. Not careful enough in words and deeds.

So, are such careless words and actions a little far away from being successful, but very close to being unreliable? "

The five little wizards were silent.

Ernie added: "I emphasize here that I am not accusing Harry and others of being wrong, because I have not done any actual investigation and do not have the right to judge whether this matter is right or wrong. At most, I can only conduct some hypothetical analysis.

What I am saying is all about ‘how to be a successful person’. Since this is what everyone is pursuing, you must pay attention to your words and deeds.

If it's just a small and innocuous thing, it's okay. Everyone is laughing and joking, it's normal. But if it's a very serious matter, that's another story.

Just like this matter, for Harry, it involves his study and life now and in the future, and even his life safety.

For Professor Snape, it involved a reputation that would shape the rest of his working life.

It can be said that from the perspective of gains and losses, this is more serious than the Lilliput adventure. Because it is closer to our daily life. "

There is no doubt that the little wizards were all calmed by Ernie's righteous beep.

Ernie thought to himself: "Please call me a life counselor, thank you!"
