"Why?" Hugo asked.

"Because...because...because, you know, wisps can Apparate anywhere."

"But magic is not allowed in that sea area." Rose was very dissatisfied with his answer.

"Come on! That's a house-elf, I mean, there are always exceptions, aren't there?"

Harry said hurriedly, not daring to even glance in Hermione's direction from the beginning to the end.Although it seemed unmannered to argue with the juniors, he didn't want to be lectured by Hermione for discriminating against house elves.

"You pass." Rose reluctantly turned her head to Ginny, "Who did Auntie choose?"

"Ron."

"What?!" Unlike Ginny's calmness, Ron almost growled, "I'm your brother."

"So what?" Ginny glared at him. "Charlie, Bill and Percy are my brothers too, but they're not on the list. You should be content, at least I put you on the list."

"But……"

"Do you want me to delete Mom and Dad, or George, or Hermione?"

"That's not what I meant," Ron muttered. "It's just why me. Is it because I'm the least brained."

Ginny looked at him, and Rose and Hugo looked at him—

"Dad, don't be depressed, we think you are very smart, at least you have self-knowledge."

Hermione smiled, and for a moment, the low air pressure in the room seemed to show signs of turning around.

But, it's not over yet, the game continues.

"Now, after traveling for a while, you find that the lifeboat with the leak is not big enough to carry that many people, and you have to choose another person to disembark. You have 90 seconds."

Harry looked at his woefully short list.Whether it was Ginny, Ron, Hermione or Hagrid, he couldn't sacrifice it.

but……

Harry looked at Ginny beside him, wishing he could be as calm as her.Ginny is the kind of person who seems to have a steelyard in her heart. All people and everything will be weighed before they enter her life, and they will never bother her.

And he...

The countdown had already begun, and Harry knew he had nowhere to hide, so he could only make up his mind——

"Hagrid."

He couldn't pick Ginny, it would make the kids sad.

He couldn't pick Ron and Hermione either, that would make himself sad.

God knows, it still broke his own heart by choosing Hagrid.

This time, Rose and Hugo didn't ask the reason any more, they immediately turned to Ginny when they got the answer.

"Hermione."

Ginny smiled apologetically at Hermione: "I'm sorry."

Hermione also smiled at Ginny: "I can understand, those are your family."

The game continues.

Harry felt like he was going crazy with the game.

Ginny; Ron; Hermione.

He is very clear about his choice, but the last thing he can do is to choose according to his choice.

"Don't worry, buddy, I'd rather jump myself." Ron said mockingly, "Ginny doesn't want me anyway."

"Dad, please remember the rules of the game, self-sacrifice is not allowed." Rose's serious expression was exactly the same as Hermione's.

Ron frowned: "I don't remember that there is such a rule. You don't let Harry sacrifice himself because he is not on the boat, but I am on the boat."

"I won't allow you to jump ship."

"You can't stop me, Rose, because you're not on the boat either."

Rose became anxious: "I don't care, anyway, you can't jump, you're injured."

"Why should I be hurt?"

"You can't jump ship because you're injured."

Ron stared straight at Rose's unreasonable reasoning: "Even if I'm injured, I can still jump off the ship. I'll see who can stop me."

"I can!"

Those two short words made Ron shiver like an eggplant beaten by frost: "Hermione..."

"You're hurt, so I'll be one step ahead of you."

"No... self-sacrifice not allowed!" Harry felt his tongue tied.

Hermione looked at Harry, that focused eyes gave Harry the illusion of being Legilimency.

"I think I can. What do you say, Rose? Hugo?"

Rose and Hugo looked at their mother as if they were gods they worshiped: "We...we don't know, Mom, it's just...just we don't want you to die."

"It's just a game, and I won't really leave you guys. After all, I'm the perfect Miss Know-It-All."
