Chapter 1460: What You Should Not Say
"Hermione, what do you think Maca said to Neville?"
"I don't know."
At this moment, Hermione was traveling to St. Mungo, along with Harry and Ron, as she had originally intended. And Neville, who originally subconsciously wanted to stop the three of them, chose to give up because of his momentary gaffe, and went back with Luna, who also hadn't eaten breakfast, with some delay.
Now, after the two sides parted, Ron suddenly pondered Neville's obvious thoughts with a suspicious expression.
But now, when Hermione seemed to have no clue what she had said to Neville, he suddenly became even more confused.
To be honest, even he had a little thought after hearing Neville's words. In that case, how could Hermione, who was obviously smarter than him, seem to be more confused than he was?
"Hermione," after a moment's hesitation, Ron looked at Harry beside him again, and then spoke again, "I suddenly felt ...... Could that have something to do with what we heard in the halls of the new Ministry of Magic? Well, it's a patrol team...... I remember, wasn't Sirius the leader over there? ”
"Huh? Hmmm"
Seeing that Ron finally thought of going with him after thinking about it again and again, Hermione couldn't help but be silent for a moment, and then shook her head and said:
"To be honest, I thought about this when I was at the Ministry of Magic, but ......"
As she said with a slight hesitation, Hermione couldn't help but look at Harry, who was walking on the far right. She suddenly stopped when she noticed that Harry's expression had changed color slightly from Ron's words.
But the words she said alone were enough for Ron to realize what she was trying to say.
"Wait!" Hearing Ron's footsteps, his eyes suddenly widened and he said, "Do you mean...... Hermione, did you go back to Maka and Lupin after you talked to Mr. Dean about the observation room? ”
Perhaps it was Ron's guess that made Hermione understand that even continuing to hide it would only make Harry more cranky, and she finally nodded as if she had given up:
"Yes, but Maka I didn't see when I went, he had already left. So, I just had a little more chat with Lupin......"
"Lupin, what did he say?"
Coldly, Harry suddenly asked, and Ron felt a little bad at it, and he suddenly thought that he probably shouldn't have said this to Hermione in front of Harry.
It's a pity that when he sensed that something was wrong, it was obviously too late.
On the other side, however, Hermione seemed to be ready to face Harry, and immediately replied:
"Lupin said 'it's okay' and he said...... If something really happened, he himself would be more anxious than anyone else. ”
However, this alone obviously did not make Harry feel relieved, and no matter how dull he was, Sirius's safety was at stake, he could not easily rest assured.
Rather, once you realize this, it is difficult to feel at ease.
But at this moment, Hermione suddenly continued:
"Seriously, even if Lupin had said that in front of me, I really didn't see anything unusual in his expression at all. But ......"
She hadn't finished her sentence, but even Harry could hear what she was going to say.
Soon, however, she shook her head again, and then said to Harry and Ron:
"However, Neville's words just now made me think if I was really thinking too much."
"Why?"
Ron couldn't help but be a little surprised when he heard her say this.
"I think...... Maca must have been worried that we would sneak away to London, so she let Neville, the most honest of all, keep an eye on us, right? Don't...... Isn't that so? ”
"Hmmm......"
Hermione pondered for a moment when she heard this, and then raised her head again and said:
"Indeed...... Generally speaking, that's how it should be. But...... Do you think you can think of anything that Maca can't think of? ”
As she spoke, she paused slightly, and then continued:
"Seriously, I think Maca knows each of us better than we do...... Including Neville, it was impossible for him not to know that Neville was the kind of person who was too honest to keep secrets. ”
"Uh," Ron thought for a moment, "Could it be that you mean to say that Maca deliberately wanted us to go to London?" ”
"What are you talking about?"
Seeing that Ron's thinking was too divergent, Hermione couldn't help but sigh.
"I wonder if what Maca and Neville said is actually something that has nothing to do with what we thought? Is it that we think too much about ourselves? ”
Under Hermione's little bit of analysis, Ron gradually accepted Hermione's statement that "everything is his own crankiness".
After all, Neville didn't make it clear in the end, and it was all their own brains, wasn't it?
However, unlike Hermione and Ron, who were able to think calmly, Harry, who heard that Sirius might have had an accident, the conversation between the two had already gone in and out of the left ear and out of the right ear.
At the moment, his mind was full of thoughts about "how to get out of Spiral Town" and "should I ask Maca to let me go to London first", and he had no time to think about other things.
"No...... No way! ”
Just as Hermione and Ron looked at each other, thinking about each other, Harry took a breath and said:
"Let's go, let's go to the observation room and find Maca, I'm going to London!"
"Hey!"
Seeing this, Ron almost subconsciously grabbed Harry's clothes.
"You wait...... Didn't you hear Maca reiterate the dangers of London today? How could he possibly say yes? ”
And the biggest reaction to Ron's words was not Harry, but Hermione, who was a little behind. As soon as she heard Ron's words, she knew immediately that things were going to turn for the worst she had ever imagined.
At this time, Harry estimated that it was impossible to give up going to London, and the only one who could stop Harry now was probably Maca.
It's rare that Harry, when he is getting more and more anxious, can still understand that this matter should first go to Maca to ask for permission, but who knows that Ron accidentally leaked the words in his heart.
That's right, how could Maca possibly agree? But the only way to stop Harry is for him and Maca to meet.
"Ahh
After Ron's unconscious reminder, Harry immediately realized that this was indeed the case, and he immediately turned around sharply and ran straight in the direction of the exit.
"Wait! No, Harry, you wait."
Ron, who finally realized that he had said something superfluous, was too busy to catch up and stop the other party, and Hermione immediately followed quickly.
"Sure enough...... Still shouldn't have said it! ”
