Since Tangning time traveled, she didn't really have much contact with people of her own age. Malfoy was one of them, but the results of their encounters were always not so friendly.Sensing the way Hermione was listening quietly, Tangning had a feeling that she was looking at him, and he suddenly wanted to share some things about himself with Hermione.

But he gave up before he could say anything. As far as Tangning's current relatives were concerned, there really weren't many good people. Except for the Tonks family, they were either classified as Death Eaters (the Black brothers) or suspected of being Death Eaters ( Tangning had read in the newspaper that the Ministry of Magic had investigated Lucius Malfoy, but it was ultimately dropped because there was no direct evidence). Oh, by the way, there were also parents imprisoned in Azkaban.Therefore, I hesitate to speak.

"Why didn't you say anything?" Hermione was a little surprised when Tangning suddenly became quiet.

"It's nothing," Tangning said with a smile, "I just thought that nothing is perfect in the world."

Hermione didn't know what she thought of and fell silent.

It took a long time before Hermione said something - "Thank you, Tangning. Thank you for coming over to stay with me so late. I know our efforts were probably in vain."

Sitting on the sofa, Tangning was about to fall asleep. Hermione's sudden words made him wake up instantly: "It doesn't matter. I believe that if it were you, you would do the same."

There was another long silence, and just when Tangning was confused again, he finally heard the movement upstairs.

Harry and Ron came down. They were surprised and impatient to see Tangning and Hermione in the common room. Ron didn't even pay attention to Hermione's persuasion and climbed out of the common room, followed by an angry Hermione. After climbing out, Tangning had no choice but to follow Harry as she had no time to stop him.

But Harry stopped as soon as he crawled out of the lounge. In addition to the quarrel between Hermione and Ron, he also heard other sounds, "Shut up, you two! There seems to be something moving!" Harry growled in a low voice. , he was afraid of being caught by Filch who was on patrol at night.

Ron, who stopped, quickly discovered the culprit - Neville, who was sleeping soundly on the floor in front of the Gryffindor lounge. When Ron noticed him, he just woke up: "Thank God , I found you, I can’t remember the new password and can’t go to bed.”

"Okay, let's talk about old times later." Tangning said angrily as she pushed away Harry who was blocking the exit and climbed out. He shook the frame of the Fat Lady at his hand, "I noticed the Fat Lady wasn't there when I came out. Otherwise, it would be so quiet here. Fortunately, I didn't let the door close. So, make a decision. If you don't come in now, you have to wait until the Fat Lady comes back."

Harry and Ron still insisted on going to the appointment, and Tangning gave them one last piece of advice: "Be prepared for Malfoy to break the promise."

Returning to the common room again, Neville thanked them and went back to the dormitory. Hermione was still angry: "How many points will be deducted if they are caught doing this! They are really, really selfish!"

"Okay, go to bed early. It's getting late." Tangning comforted, "No matter what the result is, they will pay the price for their actions tomorrow. The Academy Cup is not just your responsibility. If we break up, maybe Gryffindor's eye roll will teach them a lesson."

After comforting Miss Granger, Tangning returned to her bed and quickly fell asleep.

The next day, when Tangning passed by the hourglass recording the Academy Cup scores, she took a special look at Gryffindor's scores, but there was no change.When Tangning came to the restaurant, he saw Harry and Ron with dark circles under their eyes.

"You're right, Tangning. Malfoy not only failed to keep the appointment, but also told Filch!" Ron was angry at first, then approached Tangning and said excitedly, "You can't guess where we hid later. , what did I see!"

"You should be lucky that you didn't get caught last night!" These words came from Hermione who came up to him at some point.

"Hmph! Don't worry about it! I won't tell you that we saw a three-headed dog on the fourth floor!"

Harry, who was behind Ron, said with a black line: "You already said it, Ron."

"I didn't!" Ron defended instinctively, before reacting and covering his mouth tightly.

"We have no interest in dogs in restricted areas. I think it's best for you to forget about it. Also, don't forget about Potions class this morning. Harry, are you ready?" Harry was reminded a little. , Tangning and Hermione finished breakfast together and arrived at the Potions classroom.

As expected, the depressed Harry once again received Snape's care, and the excitement brought about by last night's wonderful adventure was gone. "Fortunately, there is only one Potions class a week." Harry could only comfort himself.

The second week of class ended with Tangning and Hermione perfectly formulating a sleeping potion. This is roughly the sleeping pill in the wizarding world. It only takes a small sip to make you fall asleep immediately until the next morning. Originally, Tangning planned to keep it. Take a little after a future nightmare to fall asleep quickly.But when he smelled the sour and pungent smell, he was immediately reminded of the painful memories of his childhood - he had drank this medicine! "I'd rather not sleep than drink this damn thing!" He decided decisively.

Tangning's pale face made Hermione very surprised.

In the two weeks since then, Tangning's life has been very regular: reading, studying academic issues with Hermione, well, just studying; reading, discussing with her roommate the techniques of safely accelerating on a broomstick; reading, practicing spells and Brain Defense.

During this period, it was finally revealed that Harry had been selected for the Gryffindor Quidditch team, along with a brand new Nimbus 2000, which brought new topics of conversation to Downing's life - there was gossip. It is said that Harry sleeps with Nimbus 2000 in his arms every night...

Downing's regular life until the next Monday night.

When Tangning showed Snape the results of her brain defense connection, Snape scolded her and pointed out a series of problems like Tangning's inattention and distracting thoughts.Finally, Snape concluded: "I had high hopes for you, Lestrange, but look at your results, if I wanted to, I could see what's in your head at a glance! Okay! Okay, just keep practicing like this, and you won’t be here next week!”

"Huh?" Tangning had a black question mark on her face. This professor didn't play by the rules.

"I heard that you have been very close to Potter recently?" Snape did not explain, but asked such a question.

Tangning was not stupid. He answered firmly: "I'm just getting close to Hermione!"

"Oh, Miss Know-It-All!" Snape was quite satisfied with this answer. "I have nothing left to teach you about brain defense. All that's left is that you need to keep practicing on your own. If you want to continue to learn from me, Unless... you want to fight against my Legilimency."

Tangning swore that at a certain moment, he definitely saw the guy in front of him smile. Although it flashed by, it was definitely not an illusion.Also, congratulations to Miss Beaver for getting another nickname.

"Thank you for your teaching, Professor. From now on... I won't bother you anymore. I'll just practice by myself." Tangning solemnly expressed her gratitude, and Tangning's life was back on track again.
