Hermione soon returned, still holding a huge old book in her arms. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

She excitedly pulled Vio aside, and Harry and Ron made sense of finding a reason for Neville to leave.

"I didn't think to look for it here!" Hermione explained excitedly as soon as they arrived, "I borrowed it from the library a few weeks ago and wanted to read it for fun. ”

"Pastime?" Ron said, but Hermione quieted him down so she could look something up. She began to flip the pages quickly, words in her mouth.

However, during this time, Harry was not idle, and whispered to Vio that they had asked Hagrid what treasures he had taken from Gringotts when he brought Harry to school. Hagrid refused to tell them at first, but then Hagrid said he had leaked.

They learned that there was a Nicol Lemay who might have something to do with the treasure, and they had been looking for information about Nicol all Christmas, but they never found it. However, just now, Vio accidentally read out Dumbledore's contribution, which led them to discover Nicol's information.

At this point, Hermione also stopped on an illustrated page. "I know, I know. ”

"Can I speak now?" said Ron, angrily. Hermione ignored him, and Vio looked at Hermione with a smile.

"Nick Lemay," Hermione said in a low voice, as if acting, "is the only maker of the known Philosopher's Stone!"

However, her words did not have the effect she expected.

"What stone?" asked Harry and Ron. Vio looked at the two of them, and could only roll his eyes in his heart, and then silently agreed and pretended to be curious.

"Oh, what's the matter, you three don't usually read? ”

She pushed the book to them, and Harry and Ron read, "Ancient alchemy involves the creation of the Philosopher's Stone, a magical substance with amazing functions. The Philosopher's Stone can turn any metal into pure gold, and it can also create an elixir of life that will make those who drink it immortal.

"There have been many reports about the Philosopher's Stone over the centuries, but the only remaining Philosopher's Stone belongs to the famous alchemist and opera lover Nicole Lemay. He celebrated his 665th birthday last year and now lives in seclusion in Devon with his wife, Pere Narr (658). ”

"Got it?" asked Hermione after they finished reading. "That big dog must be guarding Lemay's Philosopher's Stone! I dare say LeMay asked Dumbledore to keep it for him, because they were friends, and he knew someone was playing the Philosopher's Stone. That's why they moved the Philosopher's Stone out of Gringotts. ”

"A stone can make gold, and it will make you immortal!" said Harry, "no wonder Snape is playing with it!

Vio coughed loudly, and she decided not to contribute to their delusional temperament. "No, Harry, come to think of it, if I were Snape, I wouldn't have done anything Dumbledore had decided to protect!

Harry was speechless for a moment, Hermione thought for a moment, nodded and seemed to have some approval, and before she could think more carefully, Ron said, "No wonder we can't find Lemay in the 'Research on the Development of Modern Witchcraft', since he is six hundred and sixty-five years old, how can he be considered modern, right?"

The other three agreed with his words.

It was getting late, and Vio stood up and prepared to leave, heading back to the Slytherin common room. At this time, it suddenly occurred to her that the Mirror of Eris should have been removed as Dumbledore's last barrier to protect the Philosopher's Stone.

"Ah, by the way, Harry, I wonder how you guys are doing with Christmas at Hogwarts, is it fun to spend Christmas with the teachers?"

"Interesting?" Harry and Ron glanced at each other, "Speaking of fun, there's still something—"

So they sat down again, and Harry told him how he got an invisibility cloak for Christmas, how he stumbled into the Mirror of Eris in it, and saw his parents in the mirror, and finally the mirror was sent away by Dumbledore.

"I didn't think you guys would have such a fun Christmas at school, and if I had the chance, I'd like to take care of the Mirror of Eris too, Hermione, what would we both see in the Mirror of Eris?" Vio said with envy. In fact, she regretted it in her heart, although she had long known that the magic mirror was not in place at this time, but when she heard it, it was a different taste.

"I guess it's the thing we crave the most. However, Dumbledore also said that this photo is not good for a long time, and I am not too curious. Hermione was unimpressed.

"Well, Dumbledore told me to promise him not to look at it in the future, and I think he was right, after all, everything in the mirror is fake. Harry nodded, and the conversation changed: "VIO, will you come to the game the day after tomorrow?"

"She will!" Before Vio could speak, Hermione replied on her behalf, "Of course, I can't always suffer this kind of crime alone!" Hermione covered her mouth and laughed.

Vio was helpless, Hermione knew that she didn't have a good impression of Quidditch, and the next match was between Gryffindor and Hufflepuff, and once Gryffindor won, it would be closer to this year's House Cup.

If her group of Slytherin classmates heard that Vio was cheering on Gryffindor, they would have blown up. Hermione was deliberately pulling her back.

"Okay, okay, I'll go back first. After being sent out of the portrait hole, Vio waved his hand and dragged away with heavy steps.

After returning to the Slytherin common room, Vio stayed in his bedroom as usual.

However, Aunt Sigoness did what she had said at the beginning, and soon sent her a letter with a small soundbird, which was rare and only found in northern and southern Europe, and which had small blue spots on its body and ate some small insects.

Because the stunner does not make a single sound throughout its life, and does not call out all the sounds it has heard in the world until it dies, this stunner is still young, so it can avoid many problems by sending messages in private. The person who sent her the letter was called Sima Yi, and she was the only one who called it that anyway. When Vio tied the reply to its slender legs, and tried to call "Sima Yi" a few times, it turned its head to look at her, as if in response.

Then it spread its wings and flew off into the distance without a sound, and it flew so fast that it flashed like a shadow.

But the tasks it brings are not solved so quickly. Vio had to ask the professors all kinds of questions after the various classes, and of course, except for Professor Snape, her aunt personally compiled all the notes she had made when she was in school, and sent them all, strictly forbidding Vio to ask Professor Snape again, nominally so as not to give Snape more opportunities for Vio's confinement.

But Vio certainly wouldn't believe it, and when she was at home at Christmas, she saw her aunt so busy buying herbs for Snape that her face turned green (ah, maybe she was angry in retrospect).
