Harry Potter’s Book of Sin
Chapter 15: Meeting the Mysterious Girl Again
"Malfoy lied to you," Hermione said to Harry, "do you understand? He didn't plan to go there to meet you at all-Filch knew someone was going to the prize showroom. Malfoy must have revealed to him News!"
Harry thought Hermione might be right, but he obviously didn't want to agree with Hermione.
"Let's go." Harry turned around.
However, things are not that simple.
They had just walked for ten steps when they heard the knob of a door rattle, and something came out of a classroom in front of them.
That's Pippi!When he saw them, he screamed happily.
"Shut up, Pippi! Please, you will cause us to be expelled." Ron said bitterly.
Pippi giggled, it didn't care what Ron was talking about.
"The nasty freshman, wandering around in the middle of the night. Tsk, tusk, tusk, naughty, naughty, you will be arrested." It imitated the sorting hat and said in a strange tone.
"Pippi, do you want to know how the silver blood on Barrow, the blood man, came from?" Maca looked at it for a while and suddenly said.
"Huh?" Pepigui was startled when he heard the name, obviously showing a hint of timidity, "Why, how come?"
"Hey, let me tell you, Barrow has always liked to eat spirit monsters during his lifetime, and that's the case even after his death..." Maca's face suddenly became gloomy, and his tone of voice was prolonged, looking a bit gloomy of.
"I saw him passing by just now, did you see him?"
"Oh no--"
Pippi screamed and ran across the wall all at once.
"Oh, Maca, you are so cool!" Ron said, and Harry and Neville nodded in agreement.
"Ghost?" Hermione was a little strange. "What does this have to do with Pippi? Isn't it a ghost?"
"I asked Barrow the Blood-Peppy is a noisy ghost, it's not a ghost." Maca shook his head, "It can touch entities. Normal ghosts can't do this."
"You talk to the bloody Barrow! He looks terrible, doesn't he?" Ron said in surprise.
Maca shook his head again, greeted everyone to walk, and casually explained: "Bloodman Barrow is a good guy, don't be scared by his appearance. He is always loyal to Hogwarts, regardless of his life. That's it. Arahho Cave is open!"
The other people were taken away by the act of suddenly taking out their magic wand and chanting the spell. When they looked back, they had come to the end of the corridor without knowing it.
"Go in and find a place to hide, at least you have to avoid Fair..." Maca said and stopped.
"What's wrong, why don't you go in?" Ron asked in a low voice.
"...I think," Maca stepped back, turning his head and smiling awkwardly, "it might be a better choice for us to meet Filch."
Maca slammed the door closed again, and there was a deafening roar from inside.
"It's a big dog." Harry seemed to glance at the door before closing.
"Yes, a dog with only three heads." Maca spread his hands, and said immediately, "Run!"
As if it were cooperating with Maca's words, the door panel vibrated violently, and the big dog must have slammed it frantically inside.
They returned to the corridor and ran away, almost galloping.Filch must have been busy looking for them elsewhere. They didn't see him, and they didn't care about him anymore—they just wanted to escape the monster as far as possible.
Harry and his party ran to the portrait of the fat lady on the eighth floor before stopping, only to find that Maca was gone.
"I saw him running downstairs. He should have gone back to Hufflepuff's dormitory." Hermione gasped.
In fact,
...
For the current Maca, "rest" is a very extravagant behavior, because he always feels that time is not enough.
After spending a night at Hogwarts with Harry and the others, Maca reinvested in learning and research.Not only the potions, but the progress of other subjects should not be too slow, at least not too slack until it reaches the level of not being afraid of actual combat.
After all, there is another Voldemort watching in secret!He didn't want to have the ability to escape and protect himself when the Death Eaters attacked.
After the invisibility potion was deployed, he was about to enter the forbidden book area at night.If possible, he would also like to study the so-called "black magic" to see how they differ in essence from other magic.
Time always slips by inadvertently, and when you look back, you realize that a lot of changes have taken place around you.
On Halloween, when Maca met the mysterious Slytherin girl in the library again, he found out.Before he knew it, he had spent almost two months at Hogwarts.
"Excuse me, do you know where the books on'How to Cultivate Shrinked Figs' are placed."
It was a plain tone without ups and downs, another question almost the same as last time, and it was standing behind Maca.This made Maca look at the girl speechlessly, and after a while he pulled out a copy from the large number of books stacked in front of him and placed it in front of the next seat.
"I happen to have it here, you can sit down and read." Maca suggested softly.
To Maca's surprise, the girl obediently pulled out the chair, then put down the notebook in her hand, and sat down quietly next to Maca.He thought that this girl never listened to what others said!
After a while, Maca watched the girl flipping through the thick book back and forth, holding a light green quill in her right hand, but not even a word was written in the notebook.
"Is there any difficulty?" Maca couldn't help asking.
"There are too many steps and too many words, I don't know where to start." The girl raised her head and said solemnly.
It was the first time that Maca saw the mysterious girl's appearance-the big round eyes, the petite and exquisite nose, and the white and delicate skin that was almost transparent, all declaring that this is a pretty delicate Lovely girl.
Well, and the few strands of hair faintly exposed under the brim of her hat, her hair seemed to be white, a white that looked extremely unhealthy.
She probably didn't like others to see her hair, so she stuffed it all in the pointed cap.
"...Just remember: shrunken figs, deciduous plants, strong root systems, can survive in winter. Water demand is low, watering interval is 1-2 weeks; fertilizer demand is medium, fertilizer application interval is 3-5 weeks, dragon manure is the best ..."
Maca turned her head to look at the book and recalled it, and then sorted out its contents while gradually speaking out.The girl didn't seem to worry that Maca would remember it wrong, so she recorded it verbatim with a quill pen.
Maca watched the girl write the last letter, and was about to say something, but saw the girl suddenly close the notebook, and then put the book back on the pile of books in front of Maca.
Immediately, he stood up silently in Maca's surprised eyes, and left the library without saying a word.
"—Here again?" Maca touched her nose and muttered to herself in a low voice, "Is it because I behaved too irritatingly? Or she doesn't like other people's help? Or it's just simple Too introverted?"
When she woke up early the next morning, Maca could smell the sweet smell of roasted pumpkin in the hallway.To be honest, Maca doesn't like pumpkins. He doesn't like all food made from pumpkins. The slippery texture of pumpkin flesh makes him feel greasy.
After the first class in the morning, Maca walked through the crowded corridor with everyone. The next one was Professor Flitwick's spell class, and he had to go upstairs.
"...No wonder everyone can't stand her," Maca suddenly heard Ron's voice in the crowd. "To be honest, she was like a nightmare."
Then he found a girl bumped into his arms.
"Oh, Merlin is on! I think it's a bit too sudden, I'm not ready yet...Hermione?" Maca took a closer look. Who is this messy long hair, not Miss Granger?
"I think she heard you." Maca heard Harry's voice again, but didn't see where they were.
"Oh, yes, sorry." Hermione didn't seem to realize who she had run into.
"Uh, it's okay, I mean, what happened, Hermione?" Maca looked down at her and noticed that her eyes were red. "Who is bullying you?"
"Ah! Maca, nothing, nothing..."
Hermione looked up at him and ran away impatiently.Maca looked at Hermione who quickly disappeared from the crowd, feeling a bit inexplicable—what happened?
As the so-called "authoritarian fan", when you are in an environment, you will always ignore something because of the richness of the surrounding things.Until Maca came to the restaurant at dinner time today, he overheard the conversation between the two Gryffindor girls.
"...Did you see Hermione today?"
"I found Hermione just now. She has been crying in the women's bathroom, and she hasn't let anyone comfort her."
Maca suddenly came back to his senses, and when he looked at the colorful Halloween decorations in the dining room, he reacted - at this moment Quirrell should have been putting the trolls in!
"The third floor? Could it be the bathroom of Myrtle?"
While thinking about it, Maca ran back quickly, until he reached the second floor that something was wrong.
"What's the purpose of Quirrell...Oh! Sorcerer's Stone!"
In the past two months, Maca has been devoted to the ocean of magical knowledge, and has almost forgotten about the Philosopher's Stone.
"So, where is it convenient for the introduction of trolls, and for him to avoid the crowds and escape?" Maca calmly thought about it, and quickly came up with a conclusion-Hermione is in the basement!
