Harry Potter’s Book of Sin

"Hermione, are you sure that the entrance to that'black market'... is nearby?"

Ron looked left and right. Except for the gray mist that seemed to be everywhere, there was only a ruined wall that was a little bit infiltrating.

Yes, it does look a little weird here, after all, the surrounding buildings are basically intact, only this one is almost completely collapsed.

But apart from this, it seems that there is nothing special about it.

"It should be correct-Tonks said that the new entrance to the black market is a gallery, which is hidden between a used Muggle bookstore and a warehouse." Hermione pointed to the left and right, "Look! That's it! It's a bookstore, and on the other side is a warehouse... Moreover, there are many various oil paintings scattered in the ruins..."

It hasn’t been long since they sneaked out of Diagon Alley.

It's just that the four of them now mastered a "new technique" for rushing. Both the speed of movement and the concealment were very high, and they even effectively avoided the dark wizards who were running around in the city.

However, it is obvious that there are still some disadvantages of moving with a broom.

At present, London is full of thick fog. Flying in the air can only rely on the location of take-off and landing to determine the direction, and nothing can be seen all the way.In this way, let alone find someone while flying.

I have to say that even if Hermione happened to pass over Percy's head while flying in the air, she would definitely not know it at all.

Of course, the possibility of such a situation is obviously very small, small enough to make Hermione give up on the ground and give priority to increasing operational efficiency.

"You are waiting outside, I'll go in and have a look."

Hermione looked at the messy ruins, the cracked walls, and the second floor that had become precarious because of missing a few supports, as if to warn everyone who passed by.

As for whether there is a third floor further up, she doesn't know much-the mist enveloped everything around him, and a little further away, only a gray area was left.

"Hermione, wait!" Ron saw that she was planning to go into this dangerous building that was mostly collapsed, and he hurriedly stopped, "This place is too dangerous, and our Levitation Charm will never stand up to a floor. The weight, plus there is no way to apparate in the fog, in case this is—"

"But someone has to go in and check it out, right?" Hermione frowned. "What's more, this gallery is a bit weird. I think it's more likely to be a disguise-think about Hogwarts. In Muggle’s eyes, isn’t that also a ruin?"

"That... that won't work either," Ron hesitated a little, then gritted his teeth suddenly, "The entrance is an unfinished painting, right? I'll come in and find it!"

"what?"

Upon hearing this, Hermione and Ginny looked at Ron in surprise.

"What's wrong with you?"

"What's the matter!" Ron said, tightening the wand in his hand, "Is it weird? Don't forget, I am also a Gryffindor! Don't fight with me, it's up to you! Who is it! I'll be anxious when I'm talking!"

After that, he raised his leg and walked to the dangerous building that seemed to collapse again at any time, leaving Hermione and the others with a look of puzzlement.

"What's wrong with him?"

Hermione wanted to stop Ron, but looked at the back of the opponent who was resolutely leaving, but she couldn't make the mouth.Ginny on the side was stunned for a while and couldn't help whispering:

"Occasionally, he will be strong, but that is usually only when Fred and George make fun of him... I have never seen a situation that started inexplicably like today."

However, is Ron really just trying to do it?

"what!"

As soon as he entered the dark gallery ruins, he was immediately taken aback by the fragments of bricks falling off his head.

"Oh... Merlin's smelly socks! Is it too late for me to regret it now?"

To be honest, Ron's volunteering was indeed a bit abrupt. It was clear that Hermione's decision was the priority along the way, but he just said that on an impulse.

However, even though what he had just done was indeed impulsive, some of the thoughts in his heart had already begun to linger before he left Hogwarts.

Coming to London this time, Ron felt that he couldn't stop moving like he used to go deep into this strange fog.

Yes, my abilities are really limited, but this is not an excuse for being afraid of this.

Not to mention, he is the only male among the four in this trip. When in danger, he can't always hide behind the girls as a burden, right?

Therefore, there is nothing wrong with saying that it is proactive, but this is also a conclusion Ron reached after a lot of thought.

"Um... forget it! Those words just now are embarrassing enough, wouldn't it be even more embarrassing if you go back without finding anything?"

"...The fluorescence flickers."

The light from the tip of the rod slightly dispersed the surrounding darkness.But the ubiquitous gray fog suddenly reduced the effect of the Glowing Charm a lot... Okay!Better than nothing!

"I hope there is no dark wizard hidden here... No, I guess even the dark wizard would not be willing to come here!"

Ron walked forward slowly in this half-collapsed hall, muttering to himself as he walked, would he still be frightened by some crunching noises to stop.

But in any case, under the double obstacles of the fog and darkness, he was still moving forward step by step, and he did not stay away for a long time.

After a short while, Ron passed through the small hallway and into a corridor that was more seriously collapsed.

It can be seen that most of the paintings that should have been hung on the wall at this moment have fallen to the ground.And even if a small part of it barely stays on the wall with cracks everywhere, it is all skewed, as if it might fall off at any time.

Holding his wand, he walked cautiously across the corridor, examining every portrait here.

"Ok?"

As he walked, Ron suddenly stopped--not because of fear, or because he had found the "unfinished portrait", but because... there was no way ahead.

Extending the wand that released the light, he found that the corridor in front of him seemed to have seriously collapsed, and the entire path was blocked by the fallen wall.

"If this ruin is really just a disguise, then the entrance must be here... But where would it be?"

He has seen every one of the paintings around here, and he has not found anything unfinished, but many have been damaged by bricks.

After hesitating for a while, although Ron had the intention to go to the rubble, he was worried that he would cause the wall to collapse here because of his disorder, and for a while he didn't know what to do.

But at this moment, he heard a voice suddenly sounded behind him.

"Ron, why don't you look up?"

"Hermione?"

Hearing the voice, he ignored Yiyan and looked up, but first turned and looked behind him.

"Why are you all here?"

"Do you think we would really be assured of letting you in alone?" Hermione glared at him as usual. "Although I don't know what you are making, this is not the time to let you do it!"

While she was talking, Ginny and Luna came to Ron's side with Ginny and Luna behind her, and then looked up to the ceiling.I saw the magic wand in her hand held high, and the tip of the wand also lit up, but the brightness was obviously not enough to penetrate the fog to let her see more.

But not far away, Ron looked at Hermione's figure and said after a moment:

"I admit that I am really trying to do it... But, don't you think that this kind of situation that requires people to take risks, is I the most suitable person?"

"Fluorescence flashes, maximize it!" Hermione waved her wand again, releasing the brightness of the magic wand to the limit she could achieve, and she said casually, "You are the most suitable? Why?"

"because……"

Ron paused, then suddenly whispered:

"Because you don't like maca? If you die, what would you like to like—"

"what?"

When Hermione heard this, her raised right hand unconsciously withdrew some, even her attention was distracted by Ron's words.She was stunned in the same place, and then subconsciously turned her head and looked at Luna first before turning her head to look at Ron.

But Ron ignored her inexplicable expression and continued:

"And I... You see, I don't like anyone or anyone, even if... something happens, it's better than your accident, isn't it?"

"Ron?"

Suddenly, Luna, who had not spoken, called him, and walked in front of him with light steps.

"What, what?" Ron took a half step back subconsciously.

"Maca told me before that Ron, a boy, is good at everything, but he always likes to be alone in his own way. He also said that this is actually a bit like me..."

"Uh, then?" Ron asked suspiciously.

"Then he told me a way to remind others not to think about it!" Luna pursed her lips, seeming to be a little timid, "he said, if the other person is a girl, then give her a hug; It's a boy..."

"……Ok?"

Ron watched Luna switch her wand from right to left, then raised her white fist.

"Boom!"

"Oh--"

Luna retracted her fist and looked at Ron, who was squatting down holding his stomach, looking at the probe with some worry, before turning to the back of the opponent's head:

"...Then punch him in the stomach! Oh, did I hit too hard?"

"Cough cough cough..." Ron squatted on the ground and said with difficulty, "No, it's okay... But Luna, don't you think that Maca is probably just joking while talking?"
