Chapter 143: It's Pink
"Ahem......" Ike suddenly choked and coughed a few times.
Mr. Weasley asked, "What's wrong, Ike?" ”
"It's nothing, I just choked."
Then he asked, "Just said that Rita Starkey has been in the hospital for several months?" What's going on here? ”
"Don't you read the Daily Prophet?" Hermione said with some surprise.
"Very little." Ike shook his head, his knowledge of the major events in the wizarding world was only Stewart's occasional broadcasts, and in fact, many things in the school were told to him by Stewart.
"It was about last June, and Rita Starkey was admitted to the Spell Injuries Unit at St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries for unknown reasons, and she wasn't discharged until just before Christmas." Hermione explained.
"No one knows why she was hospitalized, but I have to say that the Daily Prophet was really ...... during that time How so? It was very clean. Bill chimed in.
"Since that woman was discharged from the hospital, she is even more excessive than before!" Percy said angrily, "Last week she said we should have done everything we could to get rid of the vampires!" ”
"Okay Percy." Mr. Weasley put down the newspaper and interrupted Percy, "We're in trouble, we need to get back to the department."
"I shouldn't be idle these days."
"Arthur, this has nothing to do with your office, does it?" Mrs. Weasley asked, "That should be Scrimgeour's business." And, don't you guys eat lunch? ”
"Everybody can't get away with it, we're all on the scene." Mr. Weasley casually put on his clothes and picked up his hat, "It's too late, and I don't know when I'll be back in the evening, so don't wait for me." ”
"I'll go with you, Daddy." Percy followed, and left with Mr. Weasley.
"By the way, Mrs. Weasley, did Headway bring me a letter?" After the two left, Harry asked suddenly.
"Letter? No, dear, not a single letter. Mrs. Weasley looked at the door that Mr. Weasley and Percy were slowly closing after they left, and she was still in a trance.
Ron looked at Harry curiously, and Harry winked and said, "Ron, can I go to your room and clean up my things?" ”
"Okay...... I'll go too. Ron replied without hesitation, and the two of them had just walked a few steps when they suddenly remembered something and turned to look at Hermione.
"Hermione, what about you?" Harry asked.
Hermione immediately agreed, and after a few steps, she stopped and looked back at Ike. Ike waved his hand, and then went upstairs with Harry and Ron.
"So, you're sure of the relationship?" Fred sat down next to Ike with the cup.
"I think so, didn't you see the way they looked at each other?" George said and sat down on the other side, and the two of them sandwiched Ike in the middle.
"Seriously, you two are amazing, first and second in age, perfect!"
"That's right, and you saved Hermione yesterday! Tut-tut, heroes save beauty, the bridge in the bridge! ”
The topic was clearly of interest, and Bill and Charlie had wanted to go to sleep and rest, but now they turned their heads in unison. Ginny was even more so, with her chin propped up in her hands, ready to listen to the gossip. Even Mrs. Weasley was intrigued, and although she seemed to be busy by the pool, her slightly deviated body betrayed her completely.
"Actually...... I don't know, we didn't talk about it. Ike was taken aback by this posture and spread his hands in reply.
"What do you mean not talking about it? You're all living together! Ginny suddenly became agitated, and her smile turned red.
"Nope! We...... There are individual rooms. ”
"Tut-tut"
"Tut-tut"
The twins smacked their lips in unison, completely unconvinced by Ike's explanation.
"Ike, I think you have to be brave, this kind of thing still has to be done by boys." Mrs. Weasley said.
"But......" Ike was about to say something, when Fred interrupted him.
"But what? When she comes down you can ask her to go out for a walk in the garden and you can throw goblins together, trust me, it's a great activity! ”
"That's right! Great for confession! George chimed in.
Before Fred could say anything, he was suddenly glared at by Ginny, and turned his head to see Ron standing at the top of the stairs with an unkind face, and Harry on the side looked a little overwhelmed.
As for Hermione, her hands were ravaging the corners of her clothes, and her head was slightly lowered so that it was impossible to see the expression on her face.
"Ahem, are you holding broomsticks for a Quidditch?" George said loudly, getting up and patting Fred on the shoulder, "I think you need us, and Bill and Charlie, just three against three!" ”
"I didn't ...... That's right! Harry glanced at Ron and pulled Ron down as he agreed. The twins, along with Bill and Charlie, surrounded Ron in the middle and went out of the house screaming.
"Honey, we need to take a look, I don't want these bastards to make a mess of my garden." Mrs. Weasley wiped her hands and pulled Ginny, who was about to continue listening to the gossip, away.
In the house, only Ike and Hermione were left.
"Quarrelsome? And them? Ike asked softly as he pulled Hermione to the table and sat down.
"Nope." Hermione shook her head.
"You can't hide what you're thinking, your face is full of writing, I can see it." Ike said with confidence, "You can talk to me." ”
"Ike......" Hermione's hand began to ravage the corners of her poor clothes again, and she was silent for a long time without speaking.
Ike silently played with the teacup until he drank the black tea inside, before Hermione could speak.
"Actually...... I can guess a little. Ike said slowly, "Harry and Ron, they're your best friends. But Ron has always been ...... to me."
"So, he said something serious to you."
Seeing that Hermione nodded slightly, Ike continued, "I'm sorry to embarrass you......"
"No, Ron is just an idiot!" Hermione said excitedly as she stared at Ike.
"Okay, okay, let's not talk about that." Ike waved his hand, "He's right, I'm not wrong, you're not wrong, many things can only be answered by time." ”
"Besides, I think we have something more important to talk about......"
"What's the matter?" Hermione seemed to be faintly aware of it, with a little anticipation in her eyes, and a little cramped.
"You should have heard some of that, Fred."
"Actually, I want to know ...... too" Ike suddenly didn't know what to say, scratched his head, and even unconsciously turned a little red.
Hermione's eyes lit up, and with a bit of cunning, she leaned forward, her face coming to her.
"What do you want to know? Ike Stride? ”
"I ...... Is it to ask, do you ...... Would you like to ......"
Suddenly, a cold touch came from his face, and when he looked up again, Hermione had run out of the door, leaving Ike alone in the room.
Got up, went out, and naturally leaned against the door, looking at Hermione, who was whispering to Ginny.
Inexplicably, a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
