Chapter 30: Another Picture
In the southeast of Hogwarts, the most mysterious Forbidden Forest is there. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoIn the Forbidden Forest, there are many magical creatures, such as the most mysterious unicorns, such as the legendary werewolves, and the deepest dementors. This primeval forest, which is unknown to Muggles, hides countless secrets.
The Forbidden Forest was originally a great place to explore, but now it's just a Hogwarts Forbidden Forest: a forest that students are forbidden to enter without permission, and the setting for wizarding stories.
Xie An was a little unsure of the credibility of Luna's suggestion, but the gifted Ravenclaw boy had to wander out of the Forbidden Forest in boredom, followed by a silly dodo.
"Getting close to nature is the first step for everyone who wants to become an Agmanis?!" Xie An thought boredly, this must be the bad taste of the wizard who wrote this book.
However, it would be a shame that the Forbidden Forest was used as a boring backdrop, not only for careerists, but also for some explorers with the courage to explore, including Gryffindors, Slytherins, and of course wizards from other houses.
Walking on the edge of this forbidden forest with no edge in sight, Xie An silently estimated the area of the forbidden forest. How many wizards are there in England? How many people have magic? There are wizards and wizarding schools in the whole of Europe? Xie An couldn't help but ponder.
However, this is not the goal!"Step 2, empty your brain and think like an animal!" The sudden sound that came out startled Xie An, it was too difficult for the doomsday humans who had to keep calculating all the time, thinking like an animal, that meant being killed like an animal!
Xie An had to temporarily close the complex balance of thoughts and schemes in his head, but fortunately, he had practiced brain occlusion before, and his mind quickly calmed down.
There are all kinds of exotic herbs growing in the potions field, what are you going to talk about in the next Potions class? No, be quiet, think like an animal. Do animals think about potion recipes? No!
Xie An tried his best to gather the attention of these crazy people who wanted to wander around, ignoring their screams, sealing them in his mind, trying to maintain an empty state of mind.
Unfortunately, nothing was found all afternoon.
When Shay Ann returned to the castle peacefully, it was already dark, and it was already more than half past dinner time, and when Xie Ann was considering whether to ask the twins for any good advice, Harry Potter and Hermione Granger came to find her.
"Andy, we've been looking for you all afternoon, where have you been today?" asked Hermione anxiously.
"Oh, I just went to Hagrid's vegetable patch and looked at the pumpkins. Xie An was a little tired, after all, it was too tiring to stay in an empty state for a long time.
"Andrew, do you have time, Hermione suggested I come to you, I want to ask your opinion as well. Harry looked a little confused, a little excited.
"Of course, have you eaten, and if you need any advice from me, you'd better wait for me to eat something later, or I'm not sure I'll be able to figure out a good idea. Xie An's stomach had begun to protest, and some bad memories began to stir in his mind.
"Well, we can go together, we didn't eat either. Before that, you can take a look at this first. Hermione handed Shea a photo, another old one!
The puzzle of the previous old photo has not been solved, and another old photo is here!
"A magic photo?" Xie An took it, the photo was a magic photo, because the people on it would move. It looks like it's been a long time, there are a lot of people on it, and it looks like a group photo. Except for Dumbledore in the back row, none of Shayan knew, and Shayne frowned slightly, waiting for Harry and Hermione's explanation.
"Today Harry went back to the dorm room and found that his stuff had been touched, and then Harry found a note and this picture on his bed. Hermione whispered, feeling like a big secret.
Xie An looked at Harry Potter, who was a little uneasy, and said softly, "Hermione, although Harry is the legendary savior, not everything that happens around him must hide something. And I don't see anything special about this photo, is there anything new in the note?"
Harry handed the note he was holding in his hand to Shea, who opened the note and wrote only one sentence: Beware of Voldemort.
Xie An frowned again, this time the brow did not open. The note looks like a plain piece of parchment, and the only feature may be that the edges are untidy, and it looks like it was torn off in a hurry. The font on it is crooked, and you can't see any style. After Xie An looked at the front and back repeatedly, making sure that there were no other hidden secrets on this note, and no magic flowing on it, he said softly, "Maybe it's just a prank." ”
"Oh, Andrew, don't you see? Maybe you really should have some bread. Hermione looked at Xie An anxiously with a calm expression, but she wisely chose not to express her opinion, so as not to interfere with Xie An's independent thinking.
"You're right, Hermione, let's eat something first. By the way, can you tell me about this photo. Xie An shrugged his shoulders and entered the auditorium first.
The three of them found a place where there were few people, but it seemed that the food was quite abundant, and Xie An was already hungry, so he sat down and ate heavily. Both Harry and Hermione seemed preoccupied and had no appetite, and both drank only a little juice.
"Hermione, can you show me the picture. I only knew Dumbledore above. Xie An asked as he ate.
"Harry, let's just say it. Hermione said to Harry.
Potter withdrew his attention from the void and said in a somewhat agitated voice, "Neville Longbottom said this is a group photo of a secret organization that used to fight against the Dark Lord, because it has his parents on it!"
Xie An finished the bread slice, took a bite, and said nonchalantly: "How can I say, Neville Longbottom has seen the photo and knows the person in the photo? By the way, who is Neville Longbottom?"
"Andrew, Neville and I are in a dorm, and he knows one of the couples, and that's his parents. Harry gestured to the two wizards, one of the only two couples looking happy.
"Ron says this man is a murderer, Sirius Black!" Harry then pointed to another man.
Xie An glanced at the murderer: very handsome, dark-haired, tall, "Ron knows a murderer?
"Well, Ron said Sirius blew up a street of Muggles!" said Harry, solemnly.
Xie An paused, didn't say anything, and then went on to eat his own bread.
"And this, Ron said, this one looks like Alastor Moody, the former Chief Auror. Harry pointed out the other, fierce-looking white man.
"Is that all? a couple, a murderer, and an Auror, oh, of course, and our Headmaster, do you know that?" Xie An asked calmly as he ate.
Harry hesitated, and Hermione said to him, "Harry, you're missing the most important part!"
Shayne waited patiently for Harry, and Harry Potter paused for a moment before pointing to a pair of wizards next to Sirius Black and whispering, "They said, these are my parents, the Potters." ”
Xie An's eyes were red, and he looked at the photo carefully, and the other couple looked very happy, Xie An said softly: "Harry, you look very similar to your parents, you have your mother's eyes, and you have inherited your father's hairstyle. ”
Harry turned his face away, Hermione, who was sitting on the other side of Shayan, sighed softly, Shay-An took out his poplar wand and lightly clicked on the photo, but there was no response, Shay-An took the photo in his hand and carefully checked the photo.
"It's just a normal magic photo, what do you think, Hermione?" Shayne handed the picture to Hermione.
"At least within our means, yes, but Andy, the problem is not in this picture, but in that note. Hermione calmed down.
"Be careful of Voldemort, if you add this photo, it's indeed a little suspicious, but it still can't rule out the possibility that it's just a prank, isn't it?" Xie An thought for a moment and asked strangely.
"Andy, you've forgotten something important, take a closer look!" Hermione couldn't wait to point to the last "three words" (Voldemort) of the sentence, and Xie An finally understood the problem.
"Ordinary wizards don't call that person that! They don't even want to say that word (Voldemort), how can they spell it out openly!At Hogwarts, there are only three people I can think of who are willing to do this and dare to do this: Headmaster, you and Harry! Maybe Professor McGonagall has the courage to do that, but Professor McGonagall doesn't spell his name out in such a casual way!" Hermione yelled in a low voice.
"Oh, Hermione, you're underestimating the talent in this school, at least I think the Weasley twins would dare to do that. Xie An sneered and drank the last juice.
"Andy, this is not an ordinary word, it stands for horror and evil, and if you are on the side of good, it is difficult for you to face this ominousness, and if you are on the side of evil, you have to give in to this fear. Now an unknown figure has left Harry with this note. I can assure you that there is a huge conspiracy behind this. Hermione continued to scream under her breath.
Xie Ann chuckled softly, not directly responding to Hermione's screams, the girl was very smart, but it wasn't enough.
"Potter, the moon is shining tonight, are you interested in going out and having fun? Shayne said to Harry, who had been keeping his head down.
Harry looked up in surprise and looked at Andrew, who was smiling brightly, a little stunned.
"Don't be surprised, you know, Potter, in the far east, a great human once said that all Dark Lords are nothing more than paper tigers. What if the Dark Lord was in the castle now, the greatest silent white wizard of the century, Dumbledore, was less than a few hundred meters away, so what was there to fear. Today, the world has long changed, where is there still Voldemort's place. Xie An said contemptuously.
Harry and Hermione both looked at Shea in shock, the stove on the wall had dimmed at this time, and the red light reflected on the silver by the flickering firelight made Andrew's face turn red and distorted, as if possessed by a demon.
"But there's a real chance that the Dark Lord will make a comeback," Hermione asked, still worried.
"Hermione, you're the smartest witch, I think you know a lot about the history of magic and even Muggles, can you tell me any so-called Dark Lord who can really make a comeback?"
"Hermione, no, not one. When people see a Dark Lord as a great threat, they will do everything they can to study him, understand him, discover his weaknesses, and plan for his weaknesses!"
"And what do those stupid demon kings think? They think they're just unlucky, they don't know how to learn from their failures, they just want to desperately pursue what they lost so they can continue the same way. Then the poor Demon Kings will find that they are so well guarded, and that the enemy knows their weaknesses!"
"If Voldemort could find out, then he might really have a chance to do it all over again, and if he just wanted to continue to intimidate the wizarding world with fear, I think Dumbledore or someone else would have been ready to put him under siege. So, Hermione, what are you worried about? a poor ghost, or a very powerful enemy who is just imagined?"
"Remember, only the truly strong know how to give up and set new and reasonable goals. If Voldemort still wants to continue his previous dream of dictatorship, I am afraid that this time he will lose even worse, and even lose his last hole card. ”
Shea's tirade stunned both Hermione and Harry, and they realized that Shayne might be right, and if Voldemort hadn't changed anything and was still holding the same cards as last time, then Dumbledore or the others couldn't have been unprepared.
"So, you two, the most important thing right now is not to focus on any mysterious events, but to try to improve yourself, if I can master those powerful spells as well, Hermione, do you think I'm more dangerous, or an old man is more dangerous. Xie An chuckled.
Even though Hermione reasoned and told her that even if Andrew mastered more and more dangerous spells, he would not be Voldemort's opponent now, the girl's sixth sense screamed and roared: Andrew is a thousand times more dangerous than the Dark Lord!
"Andrew, don't compare yourself to that person, I don't like you like that. The girl patted her hot face and stood up.
Xie An smiled and asked Harry again, "How is it, Harry, do you want to go out and relax tonight?"
"Of course. Harry laughed too.
"Andy, what are you going to do! I won't let you out!" Hermione yelled at the two.
"Oh, Hermione, we're not your little brothers, Harry and I are grown up, you can't control us. Xie An said indifferently.
Hermione instantly threw Andrew's tall figure out the window and whispered, "If you have to, I'll report to Professor McGonagall right now." ”
Shea and Hermione glared at each other, and Harry suddenly said, "Maybe Hermione can go with us!"
"Haha, I saw the surprise in your eyes, it turns out that Hermione, who is in good faith, has been waiting for the bad boy to invite her to break the school rules. Well, I'll graciously agree, see you tonight at 11 o'clock, Harry, Hermione, on the first floor. Xie An didn't wait for Hermione to react, and fled out of the auditorium, leaving Hermione behind a roaring hermione.
"Who the hell would leave these things to Harry Potter?How much does Dumbledore know about these things?Things are getting more and more complicated, trolls, evil wizards, pictures, what's the relationship between these things? Could it be that Hogwarts has—" Leaving the Great Hall, Shea quickly entered a dark hallway with no exit, his smile long gone, only a frown.
