【HP】I don’t want to fall in love, I just want to mess around

Too many people came, so the Pig Head Bar, which was originally a small place, became even more crowded and noisy.

Esther caught a glimpse of Aberforth's expression changing, and felt a little funny for some reason.

She suppressed her smile and said hello to everyone she knew.

Qiu knew that Cedric had woken up. She accompanied Cedric and his family to her hometown this summer, so her mood has always been stable and peaceful.

Different from the original work, Qiu came alone this time, and she did not bring the companion who finally leaked the secret in the original work.

Esther guessed that it might be because Cedric did not die, and she was not as painful and sad as in the original novel, so she did not need anyone to accompany her all the time.

Qiu smiled and sat next to Esther, and her attitude towards Esther was very close.

Of course, she didn't have any feelings for Harry. Poor Harry still has unrequited love.

Still the kind who carefully hides and dare not express his position.

George and Fred asked Aberforth for more than 20 bottles of butterbeer. Hermione couldn't stop smiling when she saw so many people coming over. She quickly asked Ron to bring more stools.

Naturally, everyone pays for the butterbeer. Esther's expression changed as she rummaged through the pockets of her robe.

Qiu, who was sitting next to her, keenly noticed the change in her expression, so he asked in a low voice: "What's wrong? Did you forget to bring money? It doesn't matter, I'll pay for you."

Esther shook her head and took out a gold galleons from her pocket: "It's not that I forgot to bring the money, it's just that I didn't bring any change. A cup of butterbeer seems to cost six siqs, which means he wants to ask me for [-] siqs." , I don’t really want to carry so much change and put it heavy in my pocket.”

As she spoke, she accurately threw the gold Galleons in the city to one of the Weasley twins closest to her (forgive her that she still can't tell which one is George and which one is Fred), And shouted that there was no need to ask her for change.

The Weasley twins immediately praised her for her magnanimity.

No one saw anything strange, and the atmosphere was still very lively.

Only Esther was a little distracted.

Because when she was just looking for coins, she realized that she seemed to have forgotten her double-sided mirror in the dormitory today.

You can already imagine Draco being furious because he couldn't contact her.

Although Esther is here, her soul has flown away.

After everyone sits down, it’s time to get down to business.

Hermione opened her mouth and told everyone why she wanted to form a study group. She mentioned Voldemort's name without hesitation and emphasized that he had returned.

The people present had different expressions when they heard this sentence, and most of them were still very frightened.

Because Esther also emphasized the return of Voldemort to the Hufflepuff students, the expressions of several Hufflepuffs present did not change much about the news. A male Ravenclaw student was a little uncomfortable. Believe it or not, after questioning Harry a few times in a fierce tone, Harry's expression immediately turned unpleasant. Over the past year, due to the pressure of various things, his personality had become much more irritable.

They argued for a few words, but luckily they didn't get into a fight in the end.

Susan's mother and aunt both worked at the Ministry of Magic. She mentioned that Harry used the Patronus Charm to repel dementors during the summer vacation, and asked Harry if it was true that he could summon the Patronus.

Harry nodded in acknowledgment.

Among so many people present, apart from Harry, only Esther could summon the Patronus, so everyone was curious and it aroused many people's admiration.

"Ess can also do the Patronus Charm!" Ernie suddenly started to compare for some reason: "And she learned it in the second grade!"

Even earlier than Harry!

Esther silently handed him the butterbeer in her hand, and said in his doubtful eyes: "I don't want to drink it, please drink it for me."

Ernie took it with some confusion.

Fortunately, others didn't pay much attention to him. Everyone's main focus was still on Harry.

With Susan as the starting point, everyone else also asked whether the stories about Harry that were circulated in the school were true or false.

Although most of the rumors sounded outrageous, most of them were true. The more everyone asked, the more they praised them, and Harry's mood became better.

Until Luna, who was drifting aside, suddenly asked: "So it's true that you are a princess and defeated an evil dragon?"

Harry: ...

Esther:…

I can't hold it any longer, I really can't hold it any longer.

How come anyone still remembers the outrageous rumor that Esther deliberately spread in second grade? ? ?

As the instigator, Esther couldn't help laughing.

Other students who knew the Muggle world also laughed, and even Hermione couldn't hold it back.

Harry's face turned red amidst everyone's laughter, and he quickly said to Luna: "This is not true! I don't know how such outrageous rumors could spread!"

Esther smiled and said nothing.

After such an interruption, the atmosphere was more harmonious than before.

Hermione took this opportunity to continue.

The next step is to determine the time and location for training.

Regarding time, most people present maintained a certain tacit understanding, that is, it could not occupy any academy's Quidditch training time.

Hermione agreed to their requests one by one, and then tentatively scheduled training once a week, with the specific time tentatively determined.

As for the training place, everyone mentioned several ideas but all were rejected.

Because Esther told Hermione and the others about the Room of Requirement early on, Hermione proposed to meet at the Room of Requirement without much thought. However, she did not tell everyone directly where the Room of Requirement was, she just said wait. We will let you know when everything is confirmed.

After that, she took out a piece of parchment and a quill. She solemnly told everyone that she thought everyone who came to this party needed to sign the paper to ensure that this matter would not be disclosed to anyone. .

This move made many people hesitate, but Esther took the initiative to take the quill when everyone was hesitant, and signed her name on the paper very elegantly.

After she signed, she handed the pen to Ernie. Ernie hesitated and signed his name on it.

With them as the starting point, others can't say anything even if they have doubts.

Hermione glanced at Esther gratefully.

Esther returned a trusting smile.

This made Hermione want to give her a hug on the spot.

Only Esther knows her true inner thoughts.

She felt that she could not continue to waste time here, otherwise Master Ma would really explode!

The conversation came to an end, and Hermione put away the parchment with satisfaction. Just as everyone was about to leave, the door of the bar opened again.

Everyone looked over with vigilance.

Outside the door, Draco appeared alone in a Hogwarts uniform.

He had a stern face, cold eyes, a cold and arrogant demeanor, and glanced at them expressionlessly.

Oops!

Esther subconsciously wanted to hide behind Ernie.
