Ravenclaw's Blue Gem

If Luna is here for granted, even if she didn't mention a word because of her relationship with Zoe's Cold War, it wouldn't be surprising that she appeared here with Zoe.But why does Daisy Longbottom, who is in the second grade this year, stand in the crowd with an impatient look?She turned her face away and ignored Neville, who had always wanted to talk to her, and the boy turned around pitifully, anxious and worried.

"What are you doing here? The common room doesn't go this way." Zoe raised his eyebrows and his tone was not very good.Neville glanced at Zoe rejoicingly, probably glad someone could bring it up.

"As the only person who is late, you let everyone waste their time waiting for you alone." Daisy said angrily. "Don't you have a sense of time?"

"One thing is one thing, I am late and I apologize. But you shouldn't show up here, Hermione, this kid is only in the second grade. Do you even have to absorb this kind of kid?" Zoe asked in a provocative manner. As expected, Daisy His face turned ugly, but he actually endured no loud noise.

"It's not like that." Hermione rubbed her forehead with a headache. "She... came uninvited and sneaked in behind Neville's ass. It was too late when she found out... Where did you get the news? Say we are having a practice meeting?" She looked at Daisy and asked seriously.

"As long as you pay attention to the sounds around you, you can always get news from others." Daisy pointed to Neville and said stubbornly."Actually, it was my fault, Hermione." Neville sighed helplessly. "When we were discussing the meeting, she just happened to hear something, but I didn't expect her to follow me. It was all my fault. "

"Huh! If you can all let Neville join, then you can't leave me!" Daisy folded her arms, "why only he can learn more new skills and I can't? I'm much better than Neville. !"

"You are only in second grade..." Daisy interrupted Hermione's words. She looked offended and annoyed."These are all prejudices! As long as Neville can do things, I will do a thousand times better than him! You can't underestimate me just because I am young, I can do well!"

Hermione was stung by her and shrugged.Others watched the play as spectators, some who expressed disdain for Daisy’s remarks, and some who were immersed in them, especially Weasley’s brothers, who have already started making jokes about this incident, and they are still working hard. Encourage Neville to be serious, so that the little girl can realize the majesty of her brother.

"Stop it, okay, Longbottom." Although Zoe knows the source of this strong confrontation, he doesn't want to indulge Daisy's waywardness. "Go back and stay, don't mix this matter. Or I will let you Every day of the assembly, I eat a confinement." She pointed to the prefect badge on her chest, indicating that she was not joking.

"Despicable!" Daisy shouted, "Do you think that the prefect can do whatever you want? People who abuse power are the most annoying!"

"Yeah, because I'm Siegel, we've always been so mean. It just so happens that you are Longbottom again, and I want to hurry up and attack you." Zoe said harshly.Daisy's eyes were red, and she bit her lip and sat on the floor."I won't go! Or you throw me out!"

"Okay, then I'll throw you out—" Zoe was about to step forward when someone suddenly spoke."Why can't you let her stay here? Try to learn skills as much as possible. Isn't it a great help for future studies?"

Zoe stared at the person opposing him, and the man turned away after speaking, without giving Zoe a look."Luna, are you crazy? Basically we practice spells that we only learn in third grade! She is too young!"

"I don't know if I'm crazy or not." Luna's tone was colder than ever, as if Zoe was just a stranger. "Maybe I'm crazy. It doesn't hurt to let her stay here. The house is so big, it just needs more. Looking at her, there is no danger. Don’t you learn some complicated spells in advance yourself? Can you do it yourself, but others can’t?"

Zoe didn't know what to say for a while. The total amount of time she spent with Luna could even exceed Hermione. Some things that Hermione didn't know about Luna could be said to watch Zoe do it.

"The rules cannot always be made in the direction that is favorable to you, but others can't disobey them anyway." Luna lowered her head after speaking, deliberately not looking at Zoe.This kind of negative rejection made her more irritable than yelling at Zoe. She almost wanted to ask Luna if she was wronged on purpose.

"Oh, she was right." The tall red-haired boy laughed and said, just to interrupt Zoe's anger, and another boy who looked very similar to him also nodded."Yes, isn't it good to give her a chance to prove herself? You must know that age does not determine anything."

Seeing a turnaround, Daisy raised her head quickly: "Yes, I need a chance!"

"As long as she can learn the spell we practiced today before the third assembly, it means that she can indeed learn something here, then you can't stop her from staying here, and you can't bully her in other ways." Singing and speaking out the gambling agreement peacefully is neither a loose condition nor a harsh one. After all, they can't meet every day. "But if she can't do it, it means that practicing these is too much for her. Early, then she has to leave."

"I agree!" Daisy raised her hands for fear of slipping away.

"Who promised to make this bet..." Before Zoe could finish speaking, he was interrupted by the giggling George."Don't be so cold, Siegel, it doesn't hurt for you to promise this little bet, isn't it?" "Besides, when did you become our leader? We were called by Hermione, in Harry's Come together under the fame. If you want to talk, you have to come to Hermione or Harry. You didn’t come to the bar to meet at all before, relying on your relationship with Hermione to come to Gasser—" "Plus, you are not this kid either. Family members, just wanting to order others to do what you want, is too passionate."

Whether or not Zoe was trembling with anger, the two men beat her mercilessly."Cough cough, calm down!" Hermione hurriedly rounded the field, walked up and grabbed Zoe's arm, and whispered, "George and Fred and their personalities are like this, but they are not malicious... How can you say that? Zoe can't come here!" The two shrugged nonchalantly.

"Okay, look here!" After Zoe calmed down, Hermione clapped her hands to divert the attention of other people watching the show, "Since there are differences, we show up and vote, thinking Daisy should leave. People raise their hands—"

Zoe, Hermione, Neville, Padma, and Anthony (obviously to get Zoe’s attention) raised their hands shamelessly, Hermione frowned: "Well, then people who agree to give Daisy a chance Hand—"The other people, whether they are sincere or just to watch the excitement, account for an overwhelming majority in number.Daisy jumped up excitedly.

"Damn it, why are you guys booing too!" After Hermione let the others put their hands down, she complained in a low voice to Harry and Ron in annoyance, and gave them a hard look."Since it is the result of everyone's vote, Daisy can stay here as long as she fulfills the previously mentioned requirements before the third assembly, that is, masters the spell."

"Uh, then we all introduce ourselves?" The atmosphere was a bit stagnant, because of the unpleasantness that happened before, the atmosphere between Gryffindor, headed by George, and Zoe seemed very sinister."We all know each other," Fred said deliberately, dragging his throat.

"Zoe didn't come before because the perverted old witch of Umbridge kept her from letting her take a vacation!" As soon as Umbridge's name appeared, the initial contradiction had a reasonable source of catharsis, even if some people were right. Zoe's situation is not at all concerned, but of course they are willing to use this incident as one of the examples to prove Umbridge's ugly face, and to vent their anger.Especially the Gryffindor students who passed the Quidditch team reorganization application after being suppressed by Umbridge, who hated Umbridge to the extreme.

Chapter 67 Practice of Disarming Curse

Hermione maintained discipline several times before taking the initiative back. They gathered here tonight, not for the Umbridge Criticism Meeting. The organization's rules must be decided in advance. Row.Zoe didn't miss anything. At the time, Daisy's appearance occupied the center of the conversation, and they hadn't had time to talk about business.

Hermione asked the others to reconfirm a leader election.In the first meeting, Harry suffered a lot of doubts. He has a lot of popularity at Hogwarts. In addition to the reputation associated with Voldemort, he has always been outstanding on the Quidditch court, plus Last year he played for Hogwarts as the fourth warrior and finally won the championship smoothly. He has also been recognized by many people. Without Cedric's existence, he would have been the most suitable candidate.

But because of Cedric, some people are quite criticized, thinking that Harry shouldn’t have crossed Cedric to become the leader, and even give them lessons, especially Zacharys Smith of Hufflepuff College. After a long complaint, even if Cedric praised Harry, he was still not convinced.

But even Zacharias must admit that now that Cedric does not join, Harry may be one of the most proficient in Defence Against the Dark Arts among them. He has real achievements and reputation, as The group's words are the most acceptable to most people.

Regardless of the organization, whether it is loose or strict, there needs to be a recognized leader."Let’s formally elect once. People who think Harry should be our leader raise their hands—" Everyone raised their hands, and Zoe also raised their hands. She didn’t care who held the position at all, as long as she was not extremely disgusted. The person is fine.

"Very good." Hermione nodded solemnly. "We have to get things done today, so let's start the next issue now. Let's think of the official name of a group." Among the members such as "Anti-Umbridge League" "Or after suggesting that the "Ministry of Magic is an idiot group" was far more vented than practical, they finalized the "Defensive Association."

"In this way, no one will know what we are talking about. We can call it DA outside, even if it is mentioned in the crowd, it will not be suspected." Qiu is the initiator of the proposal."Not to mention that it can also mean'Dumbledore's Army'! Don't you think this is one of the things that the Ministry of Magic fears the most, thinking that Dumbledore is gathering an army!" Ginny's statement got the majority People's approval.

"Wait, don't talk nonsense outside." Zoe objected. "This will cause trouble for Dumbledore. Don't you think the Ministry of Magic does not find him frequently enough? You want to make his position even better. Danger?” Even if the name was finally adopted because it was both practical and symbolic (this idea was accepted by most people), she still looked a little unhappy.

"It won't happen, Zoe. Umbridge can't find this room, nor know what we're doing." Padma walked over and patted her on the shoulder. She frowned at the time. Hermione pinned the list of members with "Dumbledore's Army" on the top.

"Come on, Harry. Instruct us what to do next." She pushed Harry a little, and the boy walked up to the members nervously."Uh...well, we can take advantage of some time and start practicing as soon as possible."

"Then what are we going to practice?" someone asked.

Harry glanced at Hermione, they had discussed this topic before, but he hadn't had time to speak."How about the Patronus Curse?" Zoe said indifferently with obvious targeting.The members looked at each other, not to mention Daisy, whose face turned pale, she could see that many people were interested. After all, everyone likes to learn some high-level spells that can be cool in front of people. The mystery of the patron saint's spell can satisfy them. Curiosity and vanity.

"Really, do we learn the Patronus Curse?" Susan Burns of Hufflepuff exclaimed excitedly, looking expectantly at Harry."Of course—" Hermione leaped over to cover Zoe's mouth, and said breathlessly, "Of course not! It's not a patron saint, that's not today's topic."

"We must start from the foundation to consolidate, so that we can best protect ourselves from danger!" Hermione kept winking at Harry, hoping that he would quickly dispel some fools' desire to move."Yes, that's right. We may learn the Patronus Charm in the future, but certainly not now, Hermione is right-we practice the Disarming Charm today."

The disappointed sigh continued for a moment, and under Harry's instructions, they started practicing in pairs."You go with me." Hermione said to Zoe sternly. Zoe knew she was complaining about her sudden speech.They found a corner and took out their wands. "You shouldn't have done that just now, Zoe." Hermione whispered.

"Don't you want Daisy to stay away from this matter? You raised your hand with me at the time. I just want to refuse her request in the most direct way." Zoe looked aside, Daisy continued on her face With an angry look, because her opponent is Neville.The latter looked worried and stood cautiously to one side, but didn't know that his timid appearance further angered Daisy.

"We have to follow the steps." Hermione did not respond to the previous question. "Even though I think she is too young to practice with us, but mentioning the Patronus Mantra to learn from the beginning is putting the cart before the horse. Our most fundamental The goal is to be able to protect yourself from danger and have some means to achieve this goal. Not everyone can learn the patron saint mantra, and we cannot spend all our time just learning this mantra."

"You're right." At this moment, Harry had already started to count down to everyone. Zoe listened to him count down, and then when "three" just got up, "except your weapon!" She spelled accurately. On Hermione's wrist, her wand slipped out, spinning it to the ground.

"You cheated!" When Hermione picked up her wand again, she shouted unconvinced."Aren't we in a duel now?" Zoe spread out her hands deliberately, and soon her wand suffered the same fate as Hermione's wand.It's just that this time the strength was a little bit stronger, the wand flew quite far, accidentally smashed a student's back, the man bent over and picked up the wand.

"Ah, this is mine..." Zoe froze. She had just focused on the wand before. When Luna silently handed the wand to her, she couldn't help but look at Luna's In practice, her opponent was Hufflepuff’s Justin Finley. The boy was hit by her spell, but the wand did not fly out. Justin’s hair stood up like a gust of wind. I got up and took a few steps back.

"Gather the strength a little more, Luna. Think about focusing them on one spot and hit his wrist." Zoe unconsciously spoke out the advice, but Luna ignored her, and acted on her own. Practice.

Zoe suffocated, didn't say more, suffocated back to Hermione."Come on, Hermione." But Hermione shook her head and refused.

"Let's change the group, Zoe." She explained, "Since we both have mastered this spell, we should practice with other people more to maximize the effect."

"But I want to stay with you!" Zoe said unhappily. "You pulled me in. How can you leave me aside?"

"I didn't want to get rid of you." Hermione hurried forward, "but it works better. We have so much time to be together, but not so much time for gatherings."

"They all have partners, don't they? Who can I practice with." Zoe held his arms, Padma and her sister Parvati were in a group, Luna ignored her, and there were few acquaintances. I just go to Goldstein, anyway, he should be willing to join me, because he wants to associate with me."

"What?!" Hermione cried out in shock, attracting the attention of the people around her. She grabbed Zoe who wanted to walk in the direction of Anthony, "Tell me you are kidding me." But Zoe spread his hands and shook his head.

Hermione was silent for a while: "Anyway, let's find someone to practice for a while." She walked quickly in Harry's direction, and after a few words with him, Harry greeted others "according to the mastery of the spell , Change the opponent after discussion."

Zoe watched Hermione walk in the direction of Anthony and Zacharias, but felt someone standing opposite her.She turned her attention back, Daisy stood there with her waist in her waist, biting her lip, and she left Neville.

Chapter 68 Preparation

"Practice with me, Siegel. I don't want to be with that idiot Neville anymore. Does he want to piss me off!" Daisy was very annoyed.
