Chapter 552: The so-called fate
To be honest, our Gryffindor trio has been a little bit uncomfortable lately.
Ever since Maca had solved Voldemort's troubles, the training party had become a bit loose. It turned out that they had quite a few members, and with the exception of Slytherin, the other three houses had responded.
But now, when the crisis in front of us disappears, everyone seems to have lost motivation and purpose, and gradually lazy.
But in fact, you can't blame the members who are gradually coming down, after all, it is now that the final exams are approaching, and there are so many things that even Harry feels a little unable to keep up. And as we all know, the activity was not mandatory from the beginning, it was born because everyone needed it, and it is not impossible to say that it has its timeliness.
When Maca was in school, it was okay to say that having a good wizard of similar age to make up for her would always make some motivated young wizards happy.
However, after Maca took a temporary leave of absence in the past few days, the number of people who came to participate was significantly lower than last time.
Yes! Harry, they knew that Valentine's Day was just around the corner. Many boys and girls are preparing for that day, stepping up their revisions, tidying up their outfits, and even getting together to discuss their confession plans. Besides, there is more and more homework every night, and everyone has a very tight day.
"When will Maca come back?"
It had just been lunch, and Harry, Hermione, and Ron had gathered in the common room, packing up their textbooks and preparing for the afternoon lessons.
As always, Hermione sorted out quickly. She usually keeps her textbooks all day long in her big book bag, and even has other books mixed in with them, and some time ago she has actually begun to consider whether to try the Traceless Stretching Charm.
So, she just casually glanced at the class schedule that she had memorized for a long time, compared it with the one she remembered, and began to work on the homework that most students only start to deal with in the evening.
Harry and Ron were just like ordinary young wizards, after lunch, they chatted and enjoyed the rest of the afternoon.
"Who knows when he'll be back?" Ron shrugged his shoulders and said, "If you want me to say, those guys who took the magic class are probably praying that he'll come back later - who told him to take a leave of absence to leave homework?" β
Harry waved his hand a little indifferently.
"Hermione, does Macarius have a lot of homework? How many days is it? He turned his head to Hermione, who was lying on the desk doing his homework.
Unfortunately, Hermione was probably calculating some formula, and she didn't pay attention to Harry's inquiry.
"You better not ask Hermione that kind of question," Ron whispered, "and even if she answered you, you wouldn't be able to use it as a reference, would you?" It's not that you don't know that whatever homework is in her hands, she can hand it in the next day and give it to the professor as a reference answer! β
"Except for Defence Against the Dark Arts class......," Harry added feebly, rolling his eyes.
It used to be Potions, but now it's Defence Against the Dark Arts, and any class taught by Snape would make Gryffindors miserable.
But let's be honest, Snape's Defence Against the Dark Arts class was full of dangers that everyone had to be scared every time they went to class. But I have to say that he is indeed teaching with his heart.
At least compared to the old Potions class, the big black bat was noticeably more engaged now. Over the years, Harry could feel that his knowledge of the various dark arts and dark creatures was growing, and that the methods of dealing with them were being forced into their heads one by one.
Even if all these improvements are made in the form of scare, if you think about it, it doesn't seem to be worthless.
Of course, hate is hate, and Snape's teaching style is basically difficult to like. Not to mention the little lions who have been targeted by him, even the little snakes next door have been tossed by him all day long.
After mentioning the Defence Against the Dark Arts lesson, both of them fell silent. This spring has always been like this, as if no matter what the topic, as soon as it is related to the defense class, it will become depressing, and the interest in connecting and talking about it will completely disappear.
It was a few minutes before Ron changed the subject again.
"Harry, who are you going to spend time with, Fourteen? Have you decided? He thought for a moment, then frowned again, "When that day comes, I guess I'll have to stay with Lavender all the time...... Seriously, I have a headache when I see her now, and I don't know how I agreed to her at the time? β
"'With whom'? And my broom too! Harry sighed, "I'm going to fly around the stadium all day, then finish my homework and go to bed early!" β
"Hey, buddy, don't do that!" Ron persuaded first, and then hesitated, "I'll tell you, Ginny seems to have officially broken up with that bubble noodle head recently - she doesn't let anyone talk about it, or Lavender is idle and has nothing to tell me." β
"Uh, Ginny?" Harry hesitated.
"What's wrong?" Ron said dissatisfiedly, "My sister is the best girl in the world, and there is no girl in England who is so beautiful and smart!" If I hadn't known what kind of person you were, I wouldn't have spoken like this! β
"Oh, noβ" Harry quickly shook his hand, "I know, the best little witch in the world, must be right...... But she ...... me."
"I won't mention the past, I'll ask you, do you have to start with a girl who is interested in you?" Ron pouted and said, "It's not a good choice for a girl who sticks to you hard, look at me, I'm about to regret it!" β
The so-called "girls must know how to cherish themselves", Ron can now be regarded as a first-hand experience.
"It's not like you say," Harry said in a tangled way, "I just ...... Well...... How so? β
"You're just shy!"
A voice sounded coldly from the side, startling the two little boys who were together and worried about love. They quickly turned their heads, only to realize that it was Hermione who had spoken.
"Did you do your homework?" Harry asked subconsciously.
"How can it be so fast!" Hermione said angrily, "This time Maca left a lot of homework, and it was not easy. It can be seen that . LS sorted out the ......"
Halfway through her sentence, she paused again, then tossed the subject of the course aside.
ββ¦β¦ Let's not talk about this, but let's talk about the incident just now. Hermione moved her chair to this side again, and then frowned, "Harry, if you want me to see, you're embarrassed!" Don't be in a hurry to deny it, don't you just think that this kind of thing should pay attention to fate? But fate also has to take the initiative to grasp, just wait to wait? β
"Huh?" Harry suddenly said, "Oh, yes, yes, it's fateβ"
"Come on!" Hermione interrupted him mercilessly, glared at him, and said, "Seriously, if you want to chase girls like you, the girls will have to wait until their hair is gray!" β
Harry was dumbfounded by Hermione's lecture, and he opened his mouth, only to find that he didn't know what to say. When he thought about it, he realized that Hermione was right.
In such a thing as love, if the boy doesn't know the initiative, it is basically a failure.
"Well, you're right." Harry was silent for a moment, but his expression was still a little distressed, "But ......"
Hermione tilted her head to look at him, and suddenly asked directly, "Harry, to be honest, what do you think of Ginny?" β
Hearing Hermione mention his sister, Ron immediately cheered up and set his eyes on the face of his good buddy.
Although he thought that Harry would definitely be worthy of his sister, he always felt a little uncomfortable asking him to match this pair. Speaking of which, how can you send your baby sister out?
But if it came out of Hermione's mouth, it would have seemed much more appropriate.
"Of course, she's a nice girl." Harry said sincerely, "Like Ron said, he's pretty and smart, and he loves Quidditch!" And then also ...... Well...... Also beautiful......"
"You said 'pretty' twice!"
Ron couldn't help but interject, but Hermione gave him a glare.
"In that case, what reason do you have not to chase her? Well? Hermione spread her hands, and then stretched out her finger in front of him, "It's not a few days before Valentine's Day, before the fourteenth, you must find a way to make an appointment with her, do you understand?" β
"Do you understand?" Ron repeated it on the side.
Seriously, since Ginny was not in school, he already knew that his precious sister had a strong crush on Harry. For the twists and turns between these two people, he was obviously anxious when he was caught in the middle.
Now that Hermione had taken the initiative to find out about it, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"Definitely?"
Underneath Hermione's tough tone, Harry felt as if he was being tied to a speeding train, unable to even struggle. Of course, maybe he also had a glimmer of expectation in his heart, but that expectation was buried so deep that he was still unaware of it.
"Definitely!" Hermione nodded unequivocally, making a gesture of course.
Before Harry could ponder any longer, there was a sudden rush of footsteps in the Gryffindor common room. He looked left and right blankly, only to find that the lunch break was over before he knew it.
