Chapter 69: Ron's Spirit Behind (Part II)
"You're finally back, and someone asked me to bring you a message." Silver looked up at Antonin, who looked like he had just been attacked by a troll. "You don't look good, what's the matter?"
"Don't mention it, it's a nightmare." Antonin kicked the two junior students off the couch and sat down on the couch, "Weasley almost ruined the entire Apparition class. β
"Huh?" Silver stopped the quill in his hand, "Did he lose his ear or some part of himself?" The officials of the Ministry of Magic should be very good at handling this situation - whoever made the training course run it themselves. β
"Who's to say it isn't? The moths that fell into the Golden Galleons refused to teach well at Hogwarts, so they had to run a training class outside of school that cost so much. Antonin gritted his teeth and said, "Especially after being messed up by Weasley, they still won't return the money!" β
"You're naΓ―ve, Antonin. Jin Garon is in someone else's pocket, and it will be difficult to get it back, not to mention that it is the Ministry of Magic official who collects your money. I remember Bagman owing a lot of gambling debts to others, and he still hasn't paid even a single Nat. I think you'd better talk about Weasley.
"Well, if you want me to say, it's a real nightmare......"

"Ron." Harry tried to call Ron who was sitting on the couch, he looked ten times more miserable than Antonin.
"Are you alright, Ron?"
Ron still sat there dumbfounded, unresponsive.
"Ron." Harry tried to nudge Ron, and this time he finally reacted - he jumped up like a frightened rabbit.
"You're finally getting a reaction, Ron, what the hell is going on, you've been like this since you came back from Hogsmeade for Apparition class."
"Myrtle!" Ron's eyes widened at Harry.
"Ron?" Harry looked strangely at his quirky friend in front of him, "You're not out of your mind, I'm Harry, not Myrtle." β
"I said Myrtle got stalked about me!" Ron said horrified, "She followed me all the way to Hogsmeade, cursing in my ear, and she messed up my whole life. β
"The whole life?" Harry said in a skeptical tone, "I didn't know Myrtle had such a great ability - she pestered someone for three years last time to make that person have a nervous breakdown." She messed up your whole life with you for a few hours at most? β
"It's that you have no idea how hateful myrtle is!" Ron's voice increased, startling the two underclassmen who were playing exploding cards on the other side of the common room.
"She kept following my ass and saying really nasty swear words, and that's all, at most I used the earbuds to listen to the curse to hide and be quiet. Who knew that Myrtle would be able to imitate my voice and confess to anyone of the opposite sex in front of me! β
"It should be fine, the people who can stay in Hogsmeade are wizards, and they must know that this is just a prank by ghosts." Harry said.
"No, no, Harry, things are much stricter than you might think. People made me a big joke, and everywhere I went, they pointed at me and took pity on me, a wretched creature played by ghosts! β
"But this is not enough to ruin the whole life."
"In the apparition class, Myrtle suddenly got angry, threw all sorts of messy things at her classmates, and said, 'I'm King Weasley's subordinate, and I'm going to punish you sinners on behalf of King Weasley.'" Ron's voice grew lower, "She also said a lot of really nasty things to frame me, and I was almost kicked out. β
"They can't get rid of you, Ron, you spent the money, and it's not your fault, they should drive away Myrtle."
In fact, they did. The Ministry of Magic sent an employee of the Department of Ghost Affairs to temporarily drive out Myrtle. But because the myrtle thing messed up my spirit, I was in a mess in class, and I had three consecutive human body separation accidents! I had to wait for someone else to pick up my body! I became the big joke of the whole Hogwarts! β
"Ron, take it easy, they'll forget about it soon." Harry tried to reassure his friend, "We were in the first year that Gryffindor was deducted so many points, and then there was nothing. β
"Harry, you don't understand, this time is different." Ron said in despair, "The Ministry of Magic just drove Myrtle back to Hogwarts, and as soon as I get out of the common room, Myrtle will find me soon, and then- I don't know what will happen."
βββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββ
"Anyway, Mr. Dumbledore, can you help Ron?"
"Myrtle." Dumbledore said thoughtfully, "It's not easy to deal with the ghost of this careful-eyed child, and it's best to get Mr. Weasley to get her forgiveness, offending a ghost is a troublesome thing." β
"But I don't think Myrtle is so easy to get in touch with, let alone get her understanding."
"It's man-made, Harry." Dumbledore frowned, "We have more important things to do here, I have two more memories of Voldemort to share with you, this may be our last lesson, Harry." (To be continued......)
