Harry Potter’s Book of Sin

Everyone has dark places in their hearts.

Someone once said that where there is light, there must be shadows, but shadows are always hidden behind them, and they are often not as clear as the light.

But if you suddenly turn around, you will find that you are actually so close to the shadow, as if you would fall into it with a single step.

"Hermione, look at me."

In the responsive room, Maca sat face to face with her.At this time, there were only these two chairs in the room, and even Harry, Ron and even Luna could only wait quietly in the corridor outside.

It can be seen that Hermione's expression is very uncomfortable, and she may not be mentally prepared to tell the truth.

In other words, she didn't want Maca to know that she was actually jealous of Luna.

However, Maca did not ask anything.

"Look at me, inhale, exhale... Don't think too much, let yourself really relax. Now I start to ask you some simple questions, I think this should help you restore peace."

In this empty room with only two people, Maca's voice was particularly clear.

Hermione heard that he seemed to soften his voice as much as possible, and his slightly loose vocal cords vibrated with the airflow into familiar pronunciation and tones, with his usual easygoing style.

It was just this way of speaking that made Hersen extremely at ease.

"So..." Maca asked calmly with a smile on her lips, "Does the Ministry of Magic require a permit to raise a swallowtail dog?"

"need."

"What kind of fertilizer can effectively increase the growth rate of Noctilucatum?"

"The dung of the moon monster."

"Can the leaves of Mandrake be used for cooking?"

"can."

"Which member of the Wizarding Council of the 14th century defined'man' as'any creature that walks on two legs in the wizarding world'?"

"President Burdock Malden."

"What is the product name of a chocolate cream filling bar launched by Mars Magic Foods in 1990?"

"Martian rod."

"The fifth usage of dragon blood..."

When Maca asked these questions, although his tone was very gentle, his speaking speed was quite fast.

Obviously, he knew that Hermione would be able to answer these questions that covered everything from many subjects to common sense in life.And for the other person to concentrate completely on thinking without interruption, the rhythm of his asking questions must be fast.

In fact, Maca originally wanted Hermione to empty her mind as much as possible, but this method similar to ancient wizard meditation is really not easy.

For this reason, Maca simply did the opposite, filling Hermione's thinking with a lot of fast-paced questions.

And this can make Hermione no longer have the energy to think about other things.

Seeing that Hermione had gradually entered a state of full contemplation, Maca knew that the effect he wanted had been achieved.However, although Maca has only two steps to do, the second step is much more difficult than the first step.

While continuing to ask Hermione with all-encompassing questions, Maca suddenly took out the staff and placed the top of the staff between him and Hermione.

At the next moment, a looming rune was suddenly outlined on the top of the staff, and it continued to spread out layers of invisible fluctuations.

This is the soul rule rune, and it's the one that Maca learned from the Bewitching Stele.Through countless studies and gains from Sarah, Maca has initially understood its meaning.

Through this rune, he can arouse other people's desires, but if used in reverse, it can also appease some abnormal desires.

Yes, according to Luna and Ron's hurried narrative before, I have already counted on Hermione's strange Maca.

After a while, Maca cancelled the transmission of magic power, and the soul rule rune quietly dispersed.And when the invisible ripples that spread out also disappeared, he also conveniently put away the staff.

"The last question," Maca said softly, "'When you are staring at the abyss from a distance, the abyss is staring at you too' who wrote this sentence?"

"What...what?"

Hermione opened her eyes suddenly and looked at Maca with a puzzled look.

"Well, I think you are indeed a qualified resident of the magic world," Maca suddenly leaned back in his chair and said in a relaxed tone. "That sentence just now comes from a famous Muggle scholar, his name is'Fu Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche'."

"...'The abyss is staring at you, too'," Hermione chewed on the words and couldn't help but said with grief. "This is really a creepy sentence."

"Actually, it's not necessarily," Maca shook his head. "If you regard something as an'the abyss', then it will truly become an abyss. In the struggle against the abyss, the process of struggle will often turn into another. An abyss......"

When Hermione was listening attentively, Maca stretched out his hand and dangled it before her eyes, as if telling her not to keep her nerves so tight.

"So, um... although this may not be appropriate for me, but..." Maca said seriously, "just look at your inner thoughts. You don't need to just choose to take into account the feelings of others. Make yourself painful."

Hermione was stunned when she heard the words, a moment of hesitation flashed in her eyes, but soon more determination emerged.

"It's really... you shouldn't say it!" She pursed her lips, and Shicai's pale lips gradually added a hint of rosy, "But since you said that... Then Maca, I can Punish you?"

"Uh……"

This time it was a little dazed to change to Maca, but he immediately nodded.

And just the second after he nodded, a slap suddenly appeared in his field of vision, and began to zoom in at an extremely fast speed.He leaned back almost reflexively and grabbed the opponent's wrist.

"Oh, sorry! My body moved involuntarily..."

Maca hurriedly let go of her hand and smiled awkwardly.

"Come on, you can do it again, this time I will definitely hold back."

But Hermione, who was sitting opposite, curled her lips and hummed softly with her arms folded.

"Forget it," she said slightly dissatisfied. "Compared to these, you should think about what to do next... Among Ron and Harry, I think Harry has a problem, what do you think? "

Seeing Hermione talked about the topic, Maca put a smile away, and put his thoughts on something more serious and important.

"Well, I think so too."

"Then... what happened to Harry? Why would he..."

Of course, Hermione knew nothing about Helbo's resurrection.In fact, she knew very little about the rumors about Helbo, after all, there was not much information about those things in ordinary magic books.

"I have some thoughts in my mind about this matter," Maca said. "It's just that I was anxious to help you solve the problem. Harry hasn't had time to deal with it."

"Then—" Hermione frowned slightly. "Where are they now?"

"Just outside," Maca said immediately, "rest assured, the sound inside is absolutely inaudible from outside, because the inside and outside of the responsive room are not in a continuous space at all."

"Have you reminded Ron?" Hermione couldn't help but worry.

But Maca just shook his head.

"I think it might be the most correct choice not to remind Ron," he said, pausing, "After going out for a while, you pretend that you haven't been able to return to normal and take Ron away from Harry. Distracted. And I am in charge of Luna..."

"No," Hermione immediately interrupted when she heard it, "Neither of them need you to care about, especially Luna. Just leave it to me... just do it!"

After speaking so quickly, she also deliberately stared at Maca for a few moments, which meant self-evident.

When Maca saw this, he couldn't help smiling secretly-come on, the persuasion just now made Hermione stronger than before.

"Okay, okay!" He had to surrender, "Then my thoughts will be used as a backup plan... and then I will leave the rest to me."

The two of you discussed each other in this responsive room, and Maca stood up immediately and walked to the door with Hermione who also got up.

...

"Click."

The brass doorknob was unscrewed by Hermione, then she opened the door leaf and went straight out.

"Hermione, are you okay?" Ron was the first to see the door opened. When Hermione came out, he hurried over here, "Well, it seems to be better..."

And as he spoke, Harry, who was not far away, immediately turned his gaze over, looking at Hermione in a faint rush.

"Oh, I don't think I should--"

Hermione smiled at Ron first, and walked to meet him.But when she passed the other person's shoulder and "coincidentally" saw Luna who was also coming, the smile that had become natural suddenly stiffened.

"Don't come here!"

At this time, Maca also appeared at the door of the responsive room.But he deliberately didn't look at Harry's direction, and instead focused his eyes on Luna and Hermione.

"Calm down, Hermione." He slowed down and said slowly, "It's okay, you can... You just buried the thought in your heart too deep, and only by facing it can you get out of it. ..."

At this point, he turned to Luna and said, "Don't worry, get closer to Hermione. This can help her get rid of her troubles."

However, Luna only took one step forward, and Hermione, like a frightened rabbit, ran to the other side of the corridor with a rush of ground.

Macca winked at Ron who was still in a daze.

"Why are you still stunned, chasing after!" he said, patted Luna on the shoulder again, "you go too, try to approach her slowly."

After all, he suddenly turned around and waved his hand towards Harry.

"Harry, come with you too!"
