Chapter Fifty-Eight: The Sin of Desire
Filch stood at the gate of the castle, observing the young wizard passing in front of him, looking for who had fought her last night.
Filch was very proud before the final exams, and the little ones knew how good she was, and fewer people came out in the middle of the night.
But after the exams, the young wizards began to fight back, especially the graduating seventh year, and their attacks were the most violent. The boys are fine, they don't get too ruthless on their pretty faces, and the girls can be described as crazy, and they throw all kinds of filth in Filch's face.
Hermione and Ron walked through the castle gates, Ron staring at Filch intensely. He thinks there must be something wrong with Filch. But Filch has no visions, she is neither Harry was made a Horcrux by Voldemort, nor is it that Knicks has an unknown system, so naturally there are no illusions.
The two stopped outside the castle, and Ron said, "There are no illusions in Filch. ”
Unwillingly, he added: "Filch has become a woman, there must be a problem." Maybe it's the next stage of possession! ”
"You mean that Knicks and Harry will also become women? And you saw Filch before he transformed, but you didn't say he was possessed. Hermione said.
Ron was choked and could only say forcefully, "It must be the Nyx who made the hell, he and Harry stayed alone for one night, and then the two of them were possessed." ”
"Maybe it's a ghost made by a mysterious man, and his symbol is the snake." Hermione said.
"What about the Nix? That's not a snake. Ron asked rhetorically.
Hermione angrily asked, "If it was the Knicks who did it, why did he do it to himself." ”
Ron was stunned for a moment, then defended, "To cover up the truth." If it's only Harry, then it means that it's him, and now both of them have it, and it's him who is trying to cover up the facts, you see, he didn't sleep like Harry. ”
Hermione shook her head and left alone, she was disappointed in Ron, the facts were in front of him, and he was still hard-mouthed. Because of his prejudice against the Knicks, he blamed all the mistakes on the Knicks.
In the evening, Ron was bragging about his experience with everyone, and there were many people cheering, including the Weasleys' brothers, as well as Neville, Seamus, and Dean Thomas.
"I found the three-headed dog waking up and decisively shouting 'jump' at Harry and Hermione, and the three of us jumped down to dodge the attack of Louwe.
Jumping off is the devil's net, Neville you know the devil's net is terrible, but I didn't panic at all, a spell made it retract into a corner. ”
Not believing that the stupid brother could do it, George asked, "Is it really your spell?" ”
Fred dismantled the stage together and said, "It's Hermione's." ”
"Of course it's mine, I'm a troll killer, how can I not deal with a devil's net." Ron argued.
"Don't interrupt, passing through a dimly lit corridor, we heard a buzzing sound, it was a large group of flying keys, Harry got on the broom and went to grab the key, you all know he is the best Seeker, it must be no problem to catch the key, but the key didn't let him go, I closed the door in time, otherwise Harry would have become a hedgehog."
He took a sip and continued: "We entered a dimly lit room, and the brazier around us suddenly lit up, and we found a huge chessboard, Seamus, you also have wizard chess, but you must have never seen a chess piece larger than a person.
There were three missing pieces on the huge chessboard, and I knew it was for us. Those huge pieces can shatter the other pieces in a single stroke.
I'm a good chess player, I can still win even if I have fewer pieces, I just need to let the opponent kill me, and then Harry can be a general. If I didn't sacrifice, Harry wouldn't have been able to move forward and stop the Philosopher's Stone from being stolen. I decided to go to that position and get broken by the other party. ”
Neville exclaimed, "You've been killed!!" ”
Dean reminded, "Neville, he's still alive. What about the back? How did you survive. ”
Ron didn't know what was going to happen next, but he could make it up. "Later, of course, it was Harry who made it through the chess room. You don't know, Knick is actually right behind us, he's quietly following us, we're in front of us, he's following behind to get the Philosopher's Stone. ”
Seamus interrupted: "How did the Knicks pass through Luwe, didn't Luwe wake up after you passed?" ”
"The Lestrange family is all Death Eaters, of course he is, Death Eaters know dark magic, and he is no exception, it's easy to use dark magic to get through Lowe with black magic. And think about it, if he wasn't a Death Eater, why did he sneak after us and go with us, wouldn't it? Ron convinced the others.
"And Nix got the Philosopher's Stone?" Seamus asked.
Ron replied, "Of course not, with Dumbledore here, he couldn't have gotten it." ”
Percy, who had been listening, said, "Ron, it's not right for you to slander others like this. ”
"I'm not slandering him, I'm telling the truth." Ron was angry that Percy wouldn't help him.
Percy was a prefect and very influential, and his words were shared by many who believed that Ron was denigrating the Knicks.
Of course, even if Percy doesn't say it, not many people believe Ron. His bragging was too exaggerated, and everyone didn't think Ron could do that, and arranging the Knicks' words was also seen as excluding the Knicks.
Everyone's impression of Ron has deteriorated.
Next, Seamus began to brag about his record with Filch.
Nicks returns to the common room with a plate of food. He has been practicing spells, and he has mastered the obstacles, and the armor is still ineffective.
Neville greeted the Knicks and said, "Knicks, you're back." ”
"Hmm."
Ron turned his head to look at the doorway, and his super high inspiration made him see visions again, and he wanted to see the strange things, but after a few seconds, his eyes began to water.
Seamus was the first to notice Ron's condition and asked, "Ron, why are you crying?" ”
"It's okay, I just have some pain in my eyes." Ron thinks it's because the Knicks don't want him to see the vision.
The Knicks were relieved to see Ron in tears. Ron must have seen something strange, and he'd go crazy if he continued.
Neville chased Knicks upstairs and said, "Knicks, thank you for moving me to the couch." ”
The Knicks waved his hand. "Don't worry."
Back in the dorm, the Knicks noticed Neville hesitating and asked, "Something?" ”
Neville thought about "face it bravely" and said, "Knicks, can you give me a potion?" I want to learn the spell quickly. ”
The little fat man had the courage to ask him, a rare progress. Neville was afraid of the Knicks, and most of the time it was the Knicks who pulled him to eat, read, and do his homework. Being able to speak up and make demands is at least treating the Knicks as a friend.
Nicks replied seriously: "Neville, it's okay to give you potions, but potions won't make you smarter, and they won't make you learn spells right away, it's just an aid, and it's up to you to learn spells." ”
