Speaking of Ron, his growth is undeniable, although it is nowhere near as prominent as Harry and Neville.

If he were just compared to his peers, he would have graduated from Hogwarts early with a pretty good grade.

It's a pity that even though he has already surpassed the average of normal wizards in many aspects, he is still just an unenlightened chick when it comes to treating girls.

Check it out!

Not to mention the other girls, even when talking to his sister Ginny, he still didn't know how to speak more tactfully. With his barren speaking skills, it's no wonder that no girl likes him until now.

"But"

"No, but! All in all, I wasn't wronged anywhere, you know? Also, I'm fine, don't come here to find trouble, and next time, if you come to disturb my sleep in the middle of the night, I'll tell my mother that you bullied me! ”

Ron had barely tried to make a slight excuse for himself, when he heard Ginny warn him and immediately turned back to the tent.

And when Ginny was back in the tent and never came out again, he looked at the slightly swaying curtain of the door, and for a moment he scratched his head in annoyance.

"Ahh Is it too straightforward...... If Harry or Maca had said that, it might have worked, but I certainly wouldn't! "I don't have Harry's boyfriend's position, nor Maca's trust and persuasiveness, so it's nice to dig up her painstakingly hidden scars like that, without getting slapped on the spot." ”

Speaking of which, he subconsciously touched his cheek as if he had really been slapped by Ginny, and then sighed again.

"Alas, I really can't do it! There is no place in Ginny's psyche at all......"

Thinking so, he didn't have the courage to bother Ginny again, so he simply turned his head and walked out to the outskirts of the tent camp, although there were fewer people before he had gone far, but he continued to go for a walk!

Right now, some time before dawn, away from the rekindled campfire in the middle of the camp, it was somewhat dark around.

But fortunately, since I chose a hillside clearing with an unobstructed view in advance, I didn't have to worry about a dark wizard suddenly popping up out of nowhere.

Ron strolled under the stars, feeling the cool night breeze blowing in his face, but his heart was still churning with regret for what had just happened.

After thinking too much, he himself felt a little impatient, so he simply fell back and lay down on the flat grass.

"Oh, if you look at it this way, the sky will be so low?"

Muttering like this, Ron couldn't help but raise his hand and gently grab it at the night sky, as if holding the star that seemed to be within reach.

However, this distraction was clearly not very effective, and after a few more random scratches, he sighed somewhat weakly.

But at this moment, he suddenly sighed inexplicably, as if he remembered something.

"That's right...... Am I forgetting something? "I went to talk to Ginny just now, not to persuade her to open up...... Well, at least that's definitely not the main purpose! ”

Perhaps it was because he was so worried about Ginny that he forgot even the task that Maca had given him during the conversation. It was only now that he barely came out of regret and loss that he finally remembered his secret work of "identifying the spy".

"But...... Is it barely crooked? ”

If Ginny had really been controlled, she would certainly not have been angry and made the situation worse again. After all, even if Helbo's magic was able to avoid Maca's senses, he wouldn't deliberately put himself in front of Maca to be scrutinized at close range.

And losing her temper like before will inevitably increase the likelihood that Maca will go directly to her to talk to her exponentially.

“…… So that means that Ginny is not controlled by Helbo, she is not the 'spy'. As for her abnormal behavior, such as the sudden drunkenness of herself, was actually really induced by the continuous accumulation of pressure in her heart? ”

Thinking about this, Ron couldn't help but feel a sense of relief.

"If it's not Ginny," he said secretly, "then, if it's not her, who could it be?" ”

Although things became more clueless as a rather questionable target was eliminated, Ron didn't feel a headache at all. Because before that, to be able to rule out Ginny's suspicion is what he thinks is a rather ideal beginning.

"It's just annoying Ginny, and that's ...... Well, I'm sorry Harry, but I made it difficult for you for no reason. ”

Thinking that Harry would probably go to Ginny soon, Ron felt sorry for himself. But there is no way, everything has already happened, what else can he do?

……

While Ron was lying flat on his back on the lawn on the outskirts of the camp, apologizing to Harry, Harry himself had just finished listening to another burst of self-aggrandizement from Lockhart.

But the good thing is that Lockhart has already told him what to do, which makes Harry willing to listen to the other party and himself again.

And now, it seems that Lockhart finally has nothing to say. Harry waited no longer and stood up from his chair.

"Sir, I think it's time for me to go back to sleep...... You go to bed early, too! Good night. ”

Harry didn't hesitate any longer, and immediately said goodbye to Lockhart, who seemed to be still a little reluctant, and went straight to the door.

A short time later, Harry was outside the tent and glanced at Ginny's tent on the other side. While wondering if Ginny was asleep at the moment, he couldn't imagine that Ron had made it more difficult for him to persuade Ginny.

"It's still a little before dawn...... Well, it's definitely not good to disturb her sleep now, so let's wait a little longer! ”

Thinking of this, Harry simply didn't care about the follow-up, but ran straight back to the campfire in the middle of the clearing, picked up the hammer and continued to smash the stones for Hermione.

From here, it can be seen that when encountering things, he is at least calmer and more thoughtful than Ron.

And soon, before I knew it, the eastern horizon was white.

It's almost dawn.
