[HP] Illusion

"You did it?" Harry stood up, deliberately walked in front of Hermione and Ron, blocking the coffee table behind him.

"Of course I made it. I have researched it for a long time. It should taste good. You have to try it." Hermione was smiling at the moment, with a hint of gentleness in her eyes and eyebrows. She seemed to be in a good mood. Definitely leaving is quite different.

——Actually, such an attitude is even more unnatural and suspicious.

"I seem...haven't tasted your craft in so many years." The young man tilted his head, as if he was recalling something.

"We were all busy before, but now everyone is free. Besides, I want to eat too." Carefully holding the food, he walked forward, and Ron followed him like a loyal dog all the way.

"Let me get it for you," Harry said, taking a few steps forward. There are no patterns on this cheesecake, but you can smell the fresh and rich aroma from a few yards away. The thick cheese is sweet and sweet. Alluring, with a caramel-colored skin that looks like a shiny, jelly-like hue, "this looks really good."

"Get out of my way if you want to eat," Hermione motioned Harry out of the way with her eyes.

"Since she had a baby, her temper has become more and more irritable, and she didn't seem to be like this before," Ron said bluffing, "it's rare for her to be interested in the next kitchen, so... are you ready to raise her baby?" Is there any stomach medicine? Aww—"

Hermione's invisible foot trampled on Ron's dog's paw accurately.

Harry moved away, and couldn't help laughing at the situation, "It's really heartless."

Then Ron, who approached, rested his chin on Harry's shoulder and walked forward with his arms around him. He whispered into Harry's ear, "Oh, it's getting more and more irritable."

Harry shrugged and felt the opponent's chin hit his bones twice. Ron raised his head in pain and kept rubbing his chin, "If it's so hard, just follow"

"You think I'm different?" Harry said angrily.

At this time, Hermione had already sat down, and couldn't wait to divide the cake. This cheesecake had just been frozen with the Freezing Charm. Hermione was using a hot knife to cut it into several pieces. Her movements were elegant but neat. In two or three strokes, she had already divided the three cakes into equal parts of similar size, one piece for each person, and when they sat down, she had already placed the cake in front of them.

She watched Harry drink half of the black tea and poured him some more. Ron drank black tea like Harry, while Hermione's glass was milky white fresh milk.

Hermione took a sip of milk first, and then quickly ate when the two picked up the fork, "Sorry, don't mind, I'm hungry." She looked at Harry and said vaguely.

Harry was dumbfounded, and he pushed Ron, "What about her? Is this really Hermione?"

"It is written in the book that the behavior of pregnant women will be affected by the baby," Ron said, looking very knowledgeable. "Anyway, you are not an outsider, so don't make a fuss."

Harry: "..."

"Try it quickly, you can see how happy she is eating, can you still hold back?" Ron took Harry's fork and gave him a piece and handed it to his hand, then picked up his fork, he looked Looking at Harry's sluggish look, he half-deadly teased: "Don't you even clink glasses on cake?"

Only then did Harry come to his senses, could it be...he really got it wrong?

The young man put the cake into his mouth, and the soft, smooth and fragrant taste instantly bloomed on the tip of his tongue. Although it was suppressed with a freezing spell, the cheesecake was not too cold, and it would not be as hard as ordinary ice cream. The illusion of eating cheese ice cream, the cold taste is very smooth, after swallowing, the strong cheese flavor can't help reverberating in the mouth.

"So... can Hermione eat so much of this thing?" Harry couldn't help asking his question again.

"The therapist said yes, but it's best not to eat too much." Ron also ate quickly, and had already eaten more than half of it.

Harry looked at Ron's eating, and said not very politely: "No wonder I think you are fat."

Ron: "..." It's obviously because someone is too thin, okay?Are you even eating slower because you've lost weight?

On the other hand, Harry was the slowest one to eat among the three. He enjoyed every mouthful extremely, and the sweet and rich icy taste even refreshed him.Gobbling up such a delicious cake like this is a waste of money, okay? I don't know what recipe Hermione used to make it, "By the way, is there any recipe for this?"

"You want?" Hermione said in surprise, "It's not very difficult, but I gave it to you, will you do it for me next time?"

Harry didn't say anything dead: "If there is a chance, but you have to give me the formula first."

"Okay, but you have to tell me the truth first," Hermione said casually after swallowing a mouthful of the cake, "What on earth are you going to use those memories for?"

——The topic changed so quickly, is it really okay?

Harry said: "I suspect that my soul was damaged because of the Avada Kedavra curse."

This was an answer that neither of the other two had thought of. Ron and Hermione almost dropped their forks on the table, "What? Then why didn't you say it?"

Harry looked a little puzzled, but continued: "Because I just suspect, and you all know that my health is getting worse, and my memory is also a bit problematic, so I want to see if I can find related memories from these memories."

"But," Ron stammered, "why didn't they say anything when you went to St. Mungo's?"

Here Hermione knows: "At that time, we only did a physical examination, and didn't do any relevant examinations at all. Now, your physical condition is really related to your soul?"

Harry paused, "No, I haven't been able to find out yet, but I checked with the Soul Detection Charm, and there seems to be no problem, so I'm still looking for the reason."

Ron looked at Harry worriedly, "Did you resign because your health is getting worse?"

"Yeah." Harry said unambiguously.

"Then what do you want to check?" Hermione's expression became quite serious. "Both Ron and I can help. Believe me, my page-turning speed is much faster than yours."

"That's not the case, and you'd better leave it alone," said Harry.

Hermione paused, stared at Harry and asked, "Did you find anything else?"

"Curse," Harry said softly, "it seems to be related to the curse of the soul, so don't get involved in it, and I'll tell you after I confirm it, especially since Hermione has a baby, and I can do it by myself. "

"Merlin, it's really a soul-related curse." Ron looked at Harry in disbelief. "It's no wonder your body is so weak. Is there any way to solve it?"

"If there is a curse, there must be a solution." Harry whispered, "At least that's what I've been told in so many books I've read."

The speed of the cake was solved by the three of them. Harry ate a lot of fruit and another sandwich. He looked a little groggy when he left, but even the two masters were in a different mood. high.

"Be careful on the road." Ron and Hermione sent Harry downstairs, and they went upstairs together.

After entering the house, Hermione's expression still did not relax, "Do you think he is telling the truth?"

It is self-evident who this "he" refers to when he sent the person away just now.

Ron sent his wife to the sofa and began to empty all the plates and cups, "I don't know," Ron was really a little confused, "he drank Veritaserum, although the dose is not large, but the few drops are enough He said everything, don't tell me that he can detect this colorless and odorless thing, that's impossible, unless..."

"Unless he didn't drink it at all." Hermione raised the glass in her hand, which Harry had drunk, and was stopped by Hermione when Ron was about to clean up. She looked thoughtfully at the glass full of water in her hand. A full cup of tea, except for a few drops of Veritaserum in Harry's cup, which the man hadn't had at all since he drank half of it at first.

"But what he said may be the truth." Ron was really a little confused, "He talked about the problem of soul damage. He didn't want to say it before, probably because he was afraid that they would worry. After all, this problem is so serious, but he has been hiding it. If we didn't use this... method, we probably wouldn't know this at all." This method is disgraceful, and Ron never thought that he would use such a method against his close relatives and friends, but now the situation has come One, it's time for them to use such means.

"Go and send him another invitation, just say that I didn't give him the recipe of the cake, and let him come and get it by himself."

"But..." Ron hesitated, "What if he said straight to the owl?"

Hermione gave Ron a particularly queeny look, "Just say that I don't like it, isn't it what you said about pregnant women being erratic and capricious? I have demonstrated this very well just now."

Ron knelt down to his wife in an instant.

"Going right now?"

"Tonight," said Hermione, "I don't need an owl now, just send him a Patronus."

"But..." Ron still couldn't keep up with the brain of a pregnant woman. It was said that the intelligence of a pregnant woman would be temporarily affected by the baby, but his family... Forget it, the wife is smart, and the baby must be very smart in the future. "What do you want to do again?"

"Besides Veritaserum," Hermione sighed, "there is another way." Her expression looked troubled, "If he is willing to confess, why would I do such a thing, you know this kind of thing is equivalent to betrayal .” This was the part that caused her the most pain.

"No," Ron quickly comforted his wife, but even he didn't know whether he was convincing her or himself, "We are doing it for his own good, he has too many secrets, we You can't let him carry it alone, everyone is worried about him, isn't it?"

Hermione closed her eyes, looking extremely tired, which was very different from the lazy and happy expression when she met Harry before, "I hope, he won't blame us." She murmured to herself.

"No," Ron said, taking Hermione's hand, "he definitely won't."

"Ron, can you help me find some books on soul damage?"

Of course, Ron hurriedly agreed, now that Hermione has a baby, she can't worry so much, but Harry's current situation broke their hearts.

Harry had a piece of soul on his forehead, and he was the only one who survived two Avada Kedavra curses. There are many people who survived the catastrophe, but it is certain that no one will be like Harry is like this, so soul damage is also possible.But Hermione faintly felt that it was not just that.Even if this person gave an almost perfect excuse that could explain everything.

So, is what Harry said true or false?

This answer may only be known by the person concerned.

The author has something to say: the first update...

Hermione and Ron acted out of sheer reluctance. If there was even a chance, no one would be willing to do it.I also felt helpless when I wrote it. . . .Can't be more cruel/(ㄒoㄒ)/~~

Thank you for the heart-warming mine.
