[HP] Seven Nights Talk

The next day, Harry questioned Ron and Hermione separately about Ginny's greeting card.

Ron's reaction to the fact that Ginny had actually done it was not surprising at all, and advised Harry not to take it seriously.Because he knew very well that Harry didn't have any thoughts about Ginny; and in his eyes, Ginny was too young to be responsible for what she did - "She's only in first grade!".In addition, he felt that those who dared to "covet" his sister were beasts, and they definitely needed to be beaten to death by their brothers.

Harry's back was sweating, realizing that the question was pointless.He should have known, Ron had been like that in Ginny's fourth year, let alone first year.So why did he realize now that Ron is a hidden sister-in-law?

As for Hermione, she managed to agree with Ron once that Ginny was too small.And if Harry really didn't have an idea, it's best to say no.But she was more interested in Harry asking them seriously about this matter, "You seem to be making a very serious decision? Of course, I'm not saying you're making a fuss, I just appreciate your attitude! "

Making a fuss out of a molehill?Harry touched his nose.He had to admit that Hermione's sense of smell was obviously stronger than that of careless Ron, and he had already noticed that this was not an ordinary drama where the second grade rejected the first grade.Because what he had to do was to completely cut off Ginny's thoughts and make her like someone else instead.

When Harry told Hermione this thought, Hermione's eyes widened in surprise.On the one hand, she felt that Ginny probably would not like Harry in the future; on the other hand, she felt that it was really bad news for Harry to say it at this time. "What do you mean?" she asked. "Is it because you don't like Ginny, or is there some other reason?"

"No, no," Harry denied, "it's just my problem—I'm not interested in either her or anyone else."

"What?" Hermione didn't understand the background of what he said, which seemed like a declaration of bachelorism. "Why? Do you have someone you like?"

Harry nearly choked.He was about to keep denying it, when it occurred to him that this was a good idea too—if he hinted that he already had someone he liked, wouldn't there be a valid reason for refusing?

Hermione smiled knowingly at his silent reaction. "That's a better way to say no." She knew Harry very well, so she could see through this lie.But for others, it might be a good idea.

"Do me a favor, Hermione." Harry thought he couldn't think of a better way, and begged her carefully. "Whoever asks, don't tell them."

Hermione gave him another look, and finally nodded. "To be honest, I actually think that you will become a star in a certain sense sooner or later, and you have to deal with a lot of girls, but at this time, you can take precautions before they happen..." She nodded while talking, "It's kind of like you style of."

Harry almost fell to the ground.Planning for a rainy day is more like his style?Rather than saying that, it's more like Voldemort's style, right?But it would be great if Hermione would agree to help him, at least it wouldn't be too easy to be exposed.As for the candidates... His mind was working quickly.Definitely not in schools, it's too easy to be discovered; in the wizarding world, it doesn't feel safe; that is to say, in the Muggle world—

"Just pretend I have a Muggle girlfriend," Harry asked for her advice. "How about this?"

"Sounds like a safe idea." Hermione nodded, but at the same time reminded him, "Then stop complaining about your aunt's house before you go home for the summer vacation." When she said that, she really thought that Ha Lee's fake girlfriend can't last for two years.Later, when Ron found out, he felt the same way.But he also felt that it was time for Ginny to get rid of her girlish fantasies.

So the matter was settled.Harry wrote a letter asking Ginny to speak on the Castle Bridge before dinner.It was a good time, just the two of them.But when Harry finished speaking, Ginny's face had turned white.

Harry hated her like this, but thinking about what he was going to do, he could only harden his heart, and he didn't look back when he left.It's better to be miserable all the time than to be miserable all the time.

Over the next few days, Harry noticed that Ginny was avoiding him, and knew his method was working.Although it was uncomfortable when making a decision and practicing it, he was relieved by the result.He couldn't say it was a good decision for Ginny, but at least it was good for everyone.

"That sounds really bad, like you've learned all about Dumbledore." Voldemort commented on this. "Make decisions for yourself, and make decisions for others. But this matter was originally a problem between two people..."

Harry ignored him.In fact, he's now trying to use Occlumency all the time.He said to himself that this is necessary to prevent the other party from betraying the water.Although the word betrayal is probably inevitable in the team formed by the Savior and the Dark Lord, and it is even a bit ridiculous, but he still uses it like this.

Nagini was back, which meant that Voldemort had one less Horcrux out there, and his own strength had increased—only the ring, the cup, and Harry himself remained.This trend has been particularly evident since this semester: in the first grade, although the diary could move by itself, he didn't see that the diary really grew two legs.

So what if it's really all taken back?Did the Reaper's Transfiguration Curse no longer bind Voldemort?Could Voldemort use human form to summon Death Eaters?And then……?

Harry forbade himself to think about it.He never envisages the same outcome as before, and will never allow this to happen again.

That's just one aspect of his concern; another trend is also dangerous.That is, Voldemort's interests seemed to have diverted somewhere he hadn't anticipated.

If anything, what Voldemort would have done when he reached out to Harry before, it would undoubtedly be an Avada Kedavra pointed at the tip of his wand.But now, I don't know if it's because holding a wand and saying that Avada Kedavra will not work, Voldemort seems to be interested in doing something else.For example, after he was able to conjure gold threads, he seemed to be able to conjure hands as well.But the only other uses of the wand weren't wands - once by touching his lips (which Harry insisted was a way of irritating him), once by pinning him on the bed (Harry really didn't want to recall that posture).

What new method is this?

Harry tried to focus on this aspect of his thinking, but couldn't find the door.Voldemort, on the other hand, had a big impact on what he said.Because Harry remembered that he did sleep with the diary on him during that time.In other words, what Voldemort said is very likely to be true-when he woke up, he found himself being hugged by his deadly enemy-

Merlin!

Harry wanted to mess up his own already messy hair.Every time he thinks of those dark eyes approaching Chi Chi, he feels a chill running up his spine.He couldn't blame Voldemort yet, because the root cause was himself!

Voldemort didn't say it then, can't he not say it in the future?That way, Harry thought sullenly, he didn't have to worry about it; he just had to think that the other party was up to no good, probably playing with him.Yes, isn't that what it is?Voldemort only became like this after he said what Death asked for this year!

Although Harry finally settled on the answer, he found himself even more unhappy.It was as if the year and a half had been fake, their relationship, the help Voldemort had offered him (including the time he saved him), and everything else had never happened - he hated it.Things seemed to work out, but the essence didn't change.

In any case, Harry at least kept these mental activities from himself.Otherwise, the Basilisk in the Chamber of Secrets is gone, the Gryffindor-Hufflepuff match goes well, and Harry manages to catch the Snitch.Then, on Easter Eve, they need to choose the subjects they need to take in the third grade.

This time Harry, with experience, dismissed divination from consideration.He has to say, this stuff does have such a thing, but he doesn't have Cassandra's prophecy blood in him, and he can't even predict it right once in ten thousand times, so why is he asking for trouble?Then he considered for a while between arithmetic divination and ancient runes, and finally ticked the box in front of the latter-well, at least this changed, he learned the runes from Voldemort, and then went to class It will definitely be a lot easier.

Ron and Hermione made the same choices as they had before.

"It looks like I'm going to have a divination class by myself," said Ron.

"You can choose them all too." Hermione urged him vigorously.

"Forget it, I'm not you!" Ron calmly refused.What a joke, even Harry didn't take all the courses, didn't he kill himself by doing that?By the way, Harry lent him the Nimbus 2000 he replaced, and he now prefers to spend the extra time on the broom.

"You..." Harry was about to tell Hermione that you should choose less, and just in time to see the portrait hole in front of him open, and Ginny Weasley slipped in with a few other first-year girls.Then she looked up and saw Harry, the smile on her face faded, and she walked quickly up the stairs to the girls' dormitory.

His expression probably froze, because Ron and Hermione, who had their backs to the hole, turned their heads together.Then when they turned around again, Ron said a little guiltily, "Don't worry about it, Harry, she was trying to be indifferent, but it didn't work." Hermione also reassured him, "It will be all right in a while. "

Harry shook his head and said, "It's all right." Only he knew what was going on, and he couldn't back down.The more obvious Ginny's reaction was, the more successful he was.

Contrary to his mood was the weather.Summer is here, and the sky, like the lake, turns into a glowing blue, which makes people dizzy after a long time.The mandrake was growing bigger in the greenhouse, but luckily no one needed it this time, Harry thought.

During the weekend, the three went to visit Hagrid.The latter obviously hasn't recovered from the grief of losing his pet, so he finally couldn't hold back this time, and told everything about Aragog; It was kept in the Forbidden Forest for some reasons.When they came out, their upper and lower teeth were glued together by the fudge Hagrid had made, and it was difficult for them to talk.

"Spider! It's really a spider!" Ron exclaimed as soon as he regained his ability to speak, "I didn't believe Hermione's guess! Now I can't help but thank that basilisk who doesn't know where it is—— The acromantula in the big nest! Hagrid's pet! I can't even imagine it!" Obviously, he was more sensitive to spiders than snake sloughs were real.

Hermione motioned him to keep his voice down, they weren't too far from Hagrid's cabin. "I was just guessing at that time," she said, "I just read from the book that basilisks and spiders are natural enemies...Compared with this, I want to know more, how did Hagrid do it in third grade?" Got an acromantula? Keeping it in the castle?"

"Isn't that what you should be more concerned about now?" Ron retorted. It seemed that staying away from Hagrid's cabin, that is, away from the Forbidden Forest, made him feel better, and he began to think: "If the acromant is Really, that basilisk is real! In other words, there really is a basilisk in the Forbidden Forest!" He shivered, "Maybe it's still there now!"

"Don't make wild guesses," Hermione retorted, a little impatiently, "if it's still in the Forbidden Forest, there will definitely be victims. But didn't Hagrid say that nothing happened in the past few months?"

Ron shut his mouth temporarily, but his eyes were still rolling, as if he was trying to find a reason to refute it. "Anyway, I will never go into the Forbidden Forest," he finally said firmly, "it has everything in it!"

Harry knew there were no basilisks in the Forbidden Forest, but he couldn't tell at this point.Then when he looked up, he saw Dumbledore walking down the other side of the hill, and the goal seemed to be Hagrid's cabin as well. "Look, Dumbledore has passed, and they probably want to discuss something." He whispered.Although the martial law was lifted after Dumbledore announced that the snake slough was fake, they could always see a professor patrolling the grounds every evening.

Ron had a disgusted expression on his face, obviously he didn't want to have anything to do with anything with spiders on it.And Hermione took a look and said, "Dumbledore must have known that Hagrid raised Aragog a long time ago, so he believed him from the beginning. They still only have the clue of the snake slough, and that clue is gone. Nothing was found in the woods either—so they need to discuss a new countermeasure? About how to find the missing basilisk?"

Harry said nothing because he felt it was inevitable.In addition, he also felt that no one could follow Voldemort's train of thought—an island that was not even on the map!He also understands now that the reason why Voldemort sent the basilisk away was probably not because of his idea, but because he had planned it a long time ago-he didn't want Dumbledore, his phoenix or Gryffindor sword to be against him. The basilisk poses no threat, and it doesn't want to make it easier for the other party.Snake slough was a great way to bluff, and he would definitely not be able to think of it before the incident happened.

When they reached the top of the hill and were about to enter the castle gate, Draco Malfoy was coming out in a hurry, with no one behind him.The people on both sides almost met face to face, but the other party didn't see their appearance.

"As long as it's not in Hogwarts, anywhere..." Ron was saying that, not paying attention to the front, and almost bumped into Malfoy. "Hey, pay attention too!" he shouted angrily, but the latter only gave him a cold look, and quickly walked away.

Ron punched the cotton with his fist, looking particularly puzzled. "What happened to Malfoy today?" he asked. "Shouldn't it be a sneer?"

"Knowing that, you shouldn't have said it," said Hermione bitterly.She has always followed the rules and has always looked down on behaviors that may deduct points.

Harry listened to what they were saying, but had other things on his mind.What does Malfoy seem to be doing?Did it follow Dumbledore?He stopped when he thought of this, "Go back first, I left things with Hagrid."

Ron and Hermione looked at each other. "Okay, you go, we'll wait for you in the auditorium." Hermione said. "I'll remember to leave a meal for you," Ron added.

"Thank you." Harry nodded quickly, then turned and ran out.The timing was perfect, Malfoy was still walking down the hill, and Dumbledore had already reached the vegetable patch outside the hut.He looked around and found a corner to hide.Then he reached into his pocket, took hold of his wand, and cast an Invisibility Charm and a Silence Charm on himself.

"I don't think it's possible for Dumbledore to know anything useful." Voldemort seemed to show up at just the right moment. "You don't have to take that risk."

As far as Harry was concerned, Voldemort's sudden words could no longer surprise him; instead, there was an unusual sense of security in the current situation. "What about Malfoy?" he retorted in his head. "Don't you want to know what the Malfoys are doing?"

Voldemort was silent for a moment.But before he could answer, Harry followed.
