"So, what do you want to say?"

"This is it!" Hermione slammed the book in her hand on the table.

"I'm going to find Shenon Ferrius Lovegood. ”

Harry's eyes widened......

"What did you say?"

"Shenon Ferrius Lovegood, Luna's father, I'm going to go to him and talk to him. Hermione repeated, "Trust me, this must ......"

"But...... Why?" said Harry, puzzled.

Hermione took a deep breath, as if to inject herself with strength, and said, "This is the mark, the mark in 'Troubadour' Bede." Look at this!"

She jerked the book forward, and naturally, "Dumbledore's Lies and Life" reached Harry's eyes, and Harry reluctantly glanced at it, it was a photograph of Dumbledore's original letter to Grindelwald, with Dumbledore's familiar thin italics on it.

He was disgusted to see that there was conclusive evidence that Dumbledore had written the letter, and that it was not Rita's fabrication.

"Can Rita even get this thing?" said Van Lin in surprise, skeptical of Rita Skeeter's abilities.

"This is indeed Dumbledore's note, I have compared it many times, and Harry and I have double-checked it while you are asleep. Hermione said, frowning.

"Well, I'm just a little surprised, so, what are you going to do, Grindelwald?"

"That's right, it's the signature," Hermione said. "Look at this signature, Harry!"

Harry looked at it, and for a moment he didn't understand what she meant, but, by the light of his wand, he looked closer, and he saw that Dumbledore had changed Grindelwald's name to a small triangle, the same one he had marked on The Tales of Bard Bede.

This made Harry feel a little frightened, it was too much...... Dumbledore knew about the symbol, so he reminded Hermione of the books he had left for her.

Countless coincidences hit each other is terrible, isn't it......

"It keeps coming, doesn't it?" said Hermione, "I know Wickdor says it's a Grindelwald symbol, and it does appear on an ancient tombstone in the High Cenker Valley, and that the tombstone dates a lot before Grindelwald! Now look at this! Well, we can't ask Dumbledore or Grindelwald what that means...... I don't even know if Grindelwald is still alive...... But we can go and ask Mr. Lovegood. He wore that logo at his wedding. I'm sure it's important, Harry!"

Harry didn't answer right away. He looked at her excited and eager face, then stepped out of the tent and into the darkness around him, thinking.

Is it worth it?

For the first time in his history, Harry had really relied on his own will to convince his partner to do something, but the outcome was a bit overwhelming for Harry.

Wounded, or nearly dead, after watching Voldemort's magic work up close, Harry couldn't help but doubt himself once again.

Did you do the right thing?

Fight against someone who is able to drag dead creatures back from the dark side of the world......

After a long silence, Harry spoke, "Hermione, let's stop taking risks blindly, last time, we almost ......"

"But it keeps coming, Harry, Dumbledore left me 'The Tale of Bard Bede', doesn't he want us to unravel the mystery of symbols?"

"Again!" Harry was a little annoyed, "we always try to convince ourselves that Dumbledore left behind secret symbols and clues......"

"But other than that, we don't have a choice, don't we, it's like Dumbledore has left us something else, and although Fawkes is the only one who plays a role now, I trust him, ......as always," Van Lin interjected. "I think Hermione was right, I think we should go to Lovegood. ”

"But what if it's a hoax?"

"Scam?"

"Yes, it's like the valley of the High Chike......"

"No, no, Harry...... It's not the same as the High Pitcher Valley," Van Lin added, "Lovegood is on your side, Harry. "Contrarian" has always been with you, it has been telling people that they will help you, remember the radio I said, on the radio, I can tell that part of it comes from the contrarian...... That's our good supporters. ”

How can God discern it......

Van Lin hadn't heard of it until now, but that didn't stop Van Lin from convincing Harry, all they needed now was some confidence.

"I'm sure it's important!" Hermione said sincerely.

"But don't you think that if that were the case, Dumbledore would have told me before he died?"

"Oh, when did he do that, old wizards do, pretending to be unfathomable, especially Dumbledore. Van Lin said, clutching his head.

"To tell you the truth, if I hadn't disrupted Dumbledore's plans in the first place, I don't think I would have been a part in what happened later. ”

"What?"

"For example, Horcrux ......," Van Lin spread his hands, "If I hadn't destroyed some of the Horcruxes by chance when I was at school, Dumbledore probably wouldn't have taken me with him when he was looking for that ring." ”

"Oh yes, that's what they are. Hermione continued, "Perhaps...... Maybe it's up to you to find out for yourself. ”

"I don't think it's an interesting idea. Harry recalled his previous experience with Dumbledore, and when he thought about it, Dumbledore didn't seem to be happy to tell them what to do, and occasionally said it directly, and they seemed to have thought about what they were going to do in advance.

This made Harry even less accustomed to Dumbledore......

"Still, I feel like we should talk to Lovegood, the symbol that connects Dumbledore, Grindelwald, and the High Cone Valley, Harry, I'm sure we need to know that. ”

"I think we can vote," Van Lin said hesitantly, "in favor of a show of hands to see Lovegood......

Van Lin immediately raised her hand, and Hermione didn't seem to react yet, she looked a little flustered, but she still habitually followed Van Lin to raise her hand.

What is this?

Bullying the vulnerable?

Harry's head was full of question marks......

"The minority obeys the majority, Harry, I'm sorry. Van Lin said relievedly, patting Harry on the back.

"Well," said Harry, amused and annoyed.

When did they need to do that as a small group?

And...... This is obviously a huddle behavior, right?

"Only, when we meet Lovegood, we'll have to try to find other Horcruxes, okay? So where do the Lovegoods live? do any of you two know?" Hermione asked hesitantly.

"I know, I probably asked the last time I talked to Luna," Van Lin said honestly.

"Hmm...... So, you ask Luna where she lives and what she does?" Hermione looked at Van Lin.

"Uh, you know, Luna...... I mean, about "Singing the Opposite"...... Those magazines were edited directly from her home...... And...... Well, I'll admit, I'm a little out of Luna's train of thought. Van Lin touched his nose.

The title of the crazy girl is not a joke, well, with Luna's nervous jump, it is very difficult for ordinary people to keep up, even if they are prepared.

"Okay, so, where is it?"

"I don't know the exact location, but I do remember that it was also in the village of Otrie San Cachpole, which is the hilly area east of Ron's house, which seems not too far from the Burrow, and besides, the hilly area should not be difficult to find, after all, the Luna family is very distinctive. ”

"Alright, that's settled......" Hermione nodded, "Then we'll leave early tomorrow morning." ”

......

Hermione went back to bed, and in fact, when Van Lin woke up, he refused Hermione's request for a vigil.

"So, what are you going to do? show your hands?" Harry squinted at Van Lin dangerously, much to his annoyance.

If he and Van Lin's disagreement, Harry knew that in the end, Hermione would be Van Lin's supporter.

"It's all about love and war," said Van Lin, spreading his hands, "it's both, be happy, it's Christmas holidays, and we might be able to meet Luna and get a glimpse of what is going on at Hogwarts." ”

The next morning, they apparitions appeared on the mountainside, and the breeze was blowing, and the whole village of Otri St. Cachpol could be seen as far as the eye could see. They stood on a high place, the sunlight shining obliquely on the ground through the gaps in the clouds, and looking down, the village looked like a cluster of tollhouses lined up on an oblique axis.

They raised their palms to block the sunlight and stood and looked at the Burrow for a few more moments, but they could only make out some of the tall hedges and the trees in the orchard, all planted to keep the strange little house from Muggles.

Harry looked a little melancholy, he loved the Burrow very much, not just because of Ginny and Ron, but also because of everyone in the Weasley family, and Mrs. Weasley, it felt like his mother......

"I don't know what happened to them. Harry looked at the Burrow with a wistful look, "Maybe Ron is at home at this time......"

"It's a good result, isn't it...... said Van Lin, "and enjoy Christmas without worrying about us...... At least that would reassure Mrs. Weasley, but I don't think Ron would be able to go back. ”

"Why?" asked Harry.

"Face, Ron values this very much. "If you go back, Mrs. Weasley will be relieved, but believe me, Mrs. Weasley will not be happy......"

Harry opened his mouth, but nodded resigned to Mrs. Weasley's personality.

"So, where will Ron be?"

"I don't know...... He'll take care of himself, though, and I'd rather Ron see a little more and go straight back to the Burrow. Van Lin held his head in his hands, which made him look a little lazy.

"Anyway, let's take a look from here," said Van Lin, "and in the eastern hills, it looks like Luna's house is still a little remote. ”

Van Lin and the others walked for hours, donning Harry's invisibility cloak at Hermione's insistence, and then Van Lin and Hermione used Animagus, which sped up the time it took to find them.

Until a small cottage appeared in the field of vision, standing alone on the deserted hills, it looked as if it had been abandoned.

"Do you think that's their house, and they're out for Christmas now?" said Hermione, looking through the window to see a clean kitchenette with pots of geraniums on the windowsill.

Harry was a little unimpressed by that......

"Listen, I think, outside the window of Lovegood's house, you can tell at a glance that they live there. I think we should look for it in other mountains. ”

So they moved a few miles north again.

"Aha!" Van Lin's eyes lit up, and the wind whistled their hair and clothes. He pointed upwards, on the hill where they had appeared, an unusually strange house that pointed straight up to the sky, and behind it, a huge black cylinder with a terrible moon hung beneath the afternoon sky.

"I'm sure this is definitely Luna's home, who else lives in a place like this? It looks like a giant chess piece!"

"It doesn't look like a flag at all," Hermione said, frowning at the odd-looking building.

"I'm talking about chess," Harry retorted.

"Well, whatever it is. Van Lin looked over, "Maybe we can go over and try it first, there's a good chance, isn't it?"

Harry nodded, and ran up the hill first, and by the time Van Lin and Hermione had reacted, Harry had already run some distance.

It's definitely a thankless job, running up the hill?

Anyway, I seem to be in a good mood right now.

"This is it," Harry said. "Look. "Three self-painted markers were taped to a collapsed door. The first one reads, "Contrarian,Editor, Sheie Lovegood," the second says, "Pick Your Own Parasite," and the third says, Don't Try to Drive a Plum......

Singing and singing in a consistent style, Van Lin seems to know how Luna's child was raised by her father, it should be said, completely crooked......

They slowly open the creaky door, and a zigzag path leading to the front door is overgrown with all sorts of quirky plants, including a bush covered with carrot-like fruit (Luna sometimes wears her ears as earrings).

Harry thought he had finally found a shelter where he could wither the stumps of the Snagrave tree.

Two old hawthorn trees swayed in the wind, their bare branches hung with heavy berry-like red fruits, and bead-like pavilions were densely covered with parasites, standing like sentinels on either side of the front door. A flat-headed owl with a head like an eagle stood on a branch and watched them.

"We'd better undisguise...... Muggles don't find contrarian editors, and, Harry, you know what, sometimes your face is very good. ”

"I'd rather not be like that, and besides, you're not much better than me. Harry said angrily, rolling up the cloak of invisibility for Hermione to pack in the beaded bag.

Then Hermione knocked three times on the heavy black door, which was covered with iron nails and adorned with an eagle-shaped knocker.
