Chapter 17: Trolls

Unexpectedly ran out of energy, Ning An accidentally fell asleep in the room with request, and by the time he woke up, it was already afternoon.

"Hey, my head hurts......" After sleeping for a while, Ning An felt a lot more awake, but his head had a faint pain, he took out his wand, waved it gently, and released a few small magics.

"Huh? It seems that the mental power has really increased. Ning An exclaimed, when he released the spell just now, he felt that the magic power was running much smoother than usual, and the speed had also increased, which was undoubtedly due to the increase in spiritual power.

"How long did I sleep? It's time to get out of here. He got up, patted his robe, and hurried open the smooth door, and walked out of the room.

Ning An hurried back to Slytherin for the Halloween party in the evening, and hurried all the way to the entrance of the hall from the eighth floor, ready to go back to the basement level.

With a "bang", a girl with her head down rushed straight towards her, and happened to collide with Ning An

"Ouch, I'm sorry." Ning An subconsciously apologized, but when he looked up, he was dumbfounded

"Hermione?" Ning An's eyes widened, the girl in front of her had long brown curly hair, and she was holding a textbook on her chest. Looking at her face again, her eyes were red, and a few tears had inadvertently slipped from the corners of her eyes, looking like she wanted to cry.

"Right...... I'm sorry for hurting you? I'm sorry...... I'm sorry......" Ning An Khan, he didn't expect to bump into it like this, how could he knock people into tears.

Hermione didn't seem to expect that she would collide with Ning An, so that Ning An saw her appearance, Hermione suddenly felt very uncomfortable, she would rather meet Malfoy, laugh at her fiercely, she didn't care, but she ran into Ning An who was regarded as her opponent, which made her extremely aggrieved.

Ignoring Ning An, she picked up the book and prepared to bypass Ning An and take the road.

Ke Ning'an's voice suddenly sounded, "That...... Hermione, I've always felt like you're the smartest student in the grade. ”

Hermione paused suddenly, and Ning An then said, "You are excellent in your schoolwork and know everything, in fact, I have always regarded you as a role model." He turned and whispered to Hermione's back

"But even Superman needs friends, they can help you, they can be there for you, they will be there for you when you need to talk...... I mean, I mean, if you want to, I want to be your friend. Ning An said sincerely.

Of course, he knew that Hermione wasn't being hit by him and cried, but no matter what, he couldn't bear to see this silly girl who regarded himself as an opponent crying and running down the hallway, so Ning An also hoped to comfort Hermione.

Hermione stood silently, neither running forward nor saying anything, leaving only Ning An with a thin back.

"Of course...... You can also talk to Harry and Ron...... I mean...... If you encounter something that can't be solved, don't carry it yourself......"

Ning An was only halfway through his words, when he saw Hermione turn around abruptly and throw herself into his arms, as if she could no longer suppress the emotions in her heart, Hermione cried excitedly, and she said intermittently with a crying voice

Harry...... Ron...... They didn't listen to me...... I said that's not right...... They think I'm a nightmare now...... I...... I don't have any friends anymore......" she cried bitterly in Ning An's arms as she spoke.

"Ah......" Ning An never expected Hermione to cry suddenly, although it was now in the corridor of the basement, there were still students passing by, and when they saw a little girl crying in the arms of a little boy, they couldn't help but cast a curious look.

"Hey...... Don't cry yet......" Ning An was suddenly a little at a loss, he tried to stop Hermione's crying, but it didn't work at all, maybe he needed to release it, maybe he was under pressure for a long time, Hermione didn't have the slightest intention of stopping.

"Come over first...... Ning An saw that there was a growing trend of people in the corridor, stretched out his hand, and pulled Hermione to a corner of the corridor, which was almost near the end of the basement, and behind it was the bathroom on the basement floor, and they were in a corner like a small room, and few people would come here.

"Whew......" Ning An let out a sigh, finally no longer had to be watched, and just at this time Hermione gradually stopped crying, Ning An smiled helplessly, looked down at Hermione, who had already realized what she had just done, and jumped away from Ning An's arms because of shyness, and asked softly

"You and Harry are having a falling out?"

"Uh-huh......" Hermione's eyes were still red, her face was also red at this time, and there was a little snot that seemed to want to flow out, which made her keep sucking back.

"Alas...... It's also a lot of awkward things between friends...... Come on, blow hard. Ning An said as he took out a few pieces of tissue paper and covered Hermione's nose, fortunately he had the problem of wiping his hands with a tissue after eating, so he always had some tissue on his body.

"Uh......h He...... They're probably not friends at all...... Suck.. Hermione's tone was still crying, she followed Ning An's words, blew hard, and then snatched the used tissue back from Ning An's hand with some embarrassment.

"How could it be...... You must have said something angry, rest assured that it will pass soon. Ning An comforted softly, with his mental age, it was like a child who was making awkward noise.

"Hmm...... Hmm......" Hermione nodded in disbelief, thinking of what she had just done, she was a little unnatural at this time, clutching the tissue that had wiped her snot in her hand, not knowing where to put her hand.

"Huh? Did you hear anything? Ning An moved his ears, as if he heard the noise of the crowd.

"What sound?" Hermione hadn't calmed down yet, and she hadn't heard anything at all.

"No, it seems that something has happened...... Ning An said as he pulled Hermione and wanted to leave here first, but as soon as he stepped around the corner, he secretly screamed bad as soon as he showed up.

In the corridor of the basement, a small mountain-like figure blocked their way to the stairs, this was a humanoid monster, it had blue-gray skin, and it was dragging a large wooden stick in its hand that I didn't know where to find it, and its body was very dirty, and there was a trace of disgusting stench, which floated to Ning An's nose at this time.

"It's ...... Troll! Hermione covered her mouth and said in horror.

"Don't move yet, we're hiding here." Ning An said that he was going to pull Hermione.

Who knew that Hermione suddenly exclaimed, "Harry! Ron! ”

"What!?" Ning An also looked at it in surprise, only to see two little wizards in black robes drilling through the crotch of the troll, shouting "Hermione!" Where are you, Hermione! "Isn't that Harry and Ron?

Ning An had no choice but to turn back to Hermione and say, "You hide here first, and I'll save them both." ”

Who knew that Hermione shook her head stubbornly and said, "No, they're here to find me, I can't hide here." ”

Ning An knew that Hermione was a strong and assertive girl, and he didn't think he could screw her, so he simply pulled Hermione, and the two ran out of the corner together, shouting at Harry and Ron, who were in danger of being chased by the trolls

"Harry! Ron! This way! Hermione is over here! ”

"Ning'an! Hermione! Harry looked at Ning An in surprise, and the two of them rolled on a donkey to avoid the trampling of the troll, and ran towards Ning An with a rolling belt.

"Faint!" Ning An drew his wand and put a stun spell on the troll. However, I don't know if it was because of the thick skin and flesh, the magic spell hit the troll's body, which only made him shake a few steps sluggishly, but he didn't faint.

Fortunately, Harry and Ron also escaped from the trolls and ran to Ning'an and Hermione's side.

"How did you two end up here!" Hermione asked, exclaimed.

"I ...... We heard Patil say that you were crying in the hallway in the basement...... "Harry explained, "Professor Quirrell ran into the auditorium just now and said that the basement had broken into the trolls, so we ......"

"Hey, Harry, we don't have time to explain that, okay?" Ron obviously didn't want Harry to say any more, as Hermione's eyes were already full of emotion.

"I don't want to interrupt you, but Ron is right, we really don't have time......" Ning An said with an ugly face as he looked at the troll that had already woken up after shaking his head a few times.

"What are we going to do, run?" Harry, too, asked anxiously.

"We are like a swarm of little ants on the ground to him, and we can always sweep a few people with a flick of the stick...... It's not a good idea to just run over like that......" Ning An said worriedly.

However, before he could think about what to do, the bad news came again, and two figures also wearing black robes appeared behind the troll, and Ning An couldn't help but exclaim, "Daphne! Calidora! ”

The two figures heard Ning An's exclamation, and they also let out an exclamation, and then actually ran towards them.

"Oh, no, no, don't come here! Get back! Ning An shouted, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, for fear that the troll's wooden stick would suddenly fall on the two of them in the next second.

But the two of them didn't hear his shout, and still ran towards here.

Ning An anxiously took out his wand, and suddenly he had a flash of inspiration, turned his head to look at Hermione and asked, "Hermione!" Do you use a stun spell? ”

"Ah, I've read about it in the Basic Spells, but I haven't used it......" Hermione paused for a moment, and replied hurriedly.

"I can't do that much, let's use the stun spell on this troll together, you just have to try to release it as the book says, I trust you, Hermione!" Ning An saw that the troll had come back to his senses and noticed the two small reptiles under his feet, he couldn't wait any longer, and pointed his wand at the troll and shouted again

"Faint!"

At the same time, Hermione, who was beside him, also pulled out her wand and shouted together, "Pass out!" ”

Two rays of white light shot out from their wands, slamming into the troll, the blow looked very powerful, the troll took two steps back, its right leg went limp, and it fell to one knee at once, but it swayed, but it didn't fall.
