Chapter 288: Meet Banban Again

"So you met Peter Pettigrew last night?"

At the dinner table in the morning, Hermione looked at the two of them expectantly, "Then what? Did you see the appearance? Have you already had contact? Is it related to Scabbers?"

Hermione's three consecutive questions made both of them feel ashamed.

Seeing Ron hesitating, Hermione raised her eyebrows and looked at Harry, "What happened yesterday?"

Harry was a little embarrassed and had to tell what happened last night in detail.

"It's not without gain. At least I know the reason why Lupine is friendly to you and the news of Peter Pettigrew's survival. This can already reflect many problems." Although Hermione also felt that she missed a good opportunity last night, she still As for blaming friends in hindsight or something.

"What's next, Harry, have you continued to monitor Peter Pettigrew?" Hermione asked.

"It left the school, using the secret passage of the castle, and the last location it disappeared was near the Whomping Willow." This was also the reason why Harry regretted it. Who knew whether Peter Pettigrew would appear again.

"Forget it, let's continue monitoring! Peter Pettigrew and Sirius Black appeared at Hogwarts at the same time. It feels like things are not that simple." Hermione speculated.

Harry nodded.

At this moment Ron suddenly interrupted, "I made a decision!"

Hermione and Harry looked at each other at the same time, and saw that Ron seemed to be declaring a vow, "I have decided to concentrate on studying, study hard, and train more from now on!"

At the end of his impassioned speech, Hermione and Harry both expressed calm expressions. After giving some encouragement, they began to discuss the relationship between Lupine and Sirius again.

"Hey! Give me a reaction, this is too hurtful!" Ron was really hurt.

Harry opened his mouth, he wanted to say: Brother, we are busy with business now, can we stop making trouble?

But looking at Luo Nun's little expression as if he was about to be abandoned, he didn't know how to speak.

Hermione was not used to it, "Ron, if you can work hard, as friends we support you, but you must also figure out who you are setting your goals for? When you really make progress, as a friend, We won’t be stingy with praise, but you haven’t started anything yet, what do you want to hear?”

"Okay, I get it!" Ron suppressed his restless heart and could only agree.

To be honest, Harry felt that Hermione's words were a bit harsh, but three days later, he suddenly felt that it made sense, and Ron returned to his original appearance, as if the memory of three days ago had been completely forgotten.

Hermione, on the other hand, neither attacked nor encouraged her. The little witch was no longer the reckless girl she was when she first entered school. As a friend, she had already given her advice, and she would not care about the future path.

Of course, these are just interludes in campus life.

Time flies and it’s been more than a month.

As a new professor of Magical Creatures, Hagrid has gone from being very hesitant at the beginning to becoming more proficient now. This is inseparable from Hermione's suggestion, which allowed him to choose more cute and harmless magical creatures for explanations. The effect achieved is to the naked eye. It can be seen that he has gradually realized that his own aesthetics is different from that of the young wizards.

But there are also moments in common, such as the sniff that I’m going to talk about today.

They look like a platypus, are naturally greedy for money, and have a keen sense of smell for treasures. At the same time, their furry, plump and chirping features are also their attractive features.

Probably no little wizard can resist a Sniff in front of you, showing off his careful and flattering appearance, especially when Hagrid used a gold galleon to tease the Sniff to the point of scratching his head. Many little witches were overflowing with love and affection. Sprinkling gold and silver almost drove the little guy crazy from exhaustion.

Among them, the most unexpected one is Malfoy. You can hardly imagine him showing love and feeding small animals.

Recently, Malfoy seems to have changed his gender. He is no longer arrogant or perverse. He has begun to become humble and polite, with a measured advance and retreat, as if he has completely transformed from a second-generation ancestor to a British noble.

Everyone saw this change in him, and everyone knew it was because of Hermione, the Gryffindor.

Because Malfoy can often be seen appearing near Hermione with flowers or some small gifts. He doesn't get entangled, just chats for a few words and then leaves. Occasionally, he will ask for advice on some academic questions. He has a good sense of proportion, even if Hermione Min never confiscated a single gift, but her impression of Malfoy inevitably changed.

Just like this time after the Magical Creatures class, Malfoy still came forward to chat for a few words and left before Hermione could chase anyone away.

When the three of them were on their way to Hagrid's place as a guest, Ron blushed and almost exploded with anger. He walked and cursed all the way, as if he regarded Hermione as his private property. This time, even Harry I have to admit that Ron fell behind. Compared to Malfoy before, he seemed to be too good at getting things done.

Although anyone with a discerning eye can see that someone is teaching him behind this, at least Malfoy can execute it.

Harry believed that even if someone taught him, he couldn't be as perfect as Malfoy. Although he also had a special feeling for Hermione in his heart, most of his energy was now involved in Sirius's affairs.

Hermione pretended not to hear Ron's complaints and chatted with Hagrid about the choice of magical creatures for the next class.

Privately, she had made her stance clear to Ron more than once, but because he was selectively deaf, she felt a little tired and decided to devote more energy to studying.

Hagrid was very happy to chat with Hermione. On the one hand, it was really beneficial to his courses, and on the other hand, it also made it easier for him to enjoy the fun. This kind of love between boys and girls, after hearing it too much, made him feel like he Also become younger.

The oak door was opened, and Hagrid's guard dog Fang rushed in first.

Ron was envious of Hermione's head caress.

"What do you want? Rock skin biscuits, don't be quick to refuse, I changed the method, now it's not so hard!" Hagrid put down the lesson plan and turned around to add.

"Since you said so, of course I have to try it." Hermione said. In fact, with her current physique, she can easily chew the original rock skin biscuits, but that would be a bit like Lin Daiyu pulling up the weeping willow.

The new rock skin biscuits are really good, and everyone spent a good afternoon with Hagrid.

When it was getting dark outside, it was time for them to return to the castle.

Before leaving, Hagrid slapped his forehead and remembered something, so he took out a fat rat that had become much fatter from a large iron box.

"Scabby!" Ron was surprised. He never expected to see his pet here.

Hermione and Harry's eyes lit up at the same time. They looked at each other, Hermione's eyes were full of inquiry, and Harry shook his head slightly.

Hermione meant, can we use the Marauder's Map here?

Harry said no, the distance was too far.

"Don't lose it next time!" Hagrid said, stuffing Scabbers back into Ron's hands.

"Oh, oh, okay!" Ron came back to his senses, and at this moment his hand holding Scabbers was a little stiff.

"Then we'll go back first, see you next time, Hagrid!" As she spoke, Hermione pulled Ron's arm to stop him from being stiff and dazed.

"Goodbye!"

After leaving the tree house, the positions of the three people changed silently. Harry took the lead and walked in front, Ron walked in the middle with Scabbers, and Hermione was at the back, with the wand in her sleeve already in hand.

On the way, Hermione and Harry were still trying to chat, but Ron's mouth was like glued, and the tension was visible to the naked eye.

This made the two men extremely anxious. When they suspected Scabbers before, Ron was the most opposed. Now that Scabbers is back in his hands, Ron is the most nervous. If they had known this, they should not have taken care of Ron's face and captured Scabbers directly.

Fortunately, after entering the range of the Whomping Willow, the effect of the Marauder's Map has been used.

Harry, who was walking in front, quietly took out the map.

Pointing his wand at it, he whispered: "I solemnly swear that I am up to no good!"

As the ink appeared on the parchment, Harry immediately turned to the vicinity of the Whomping Willow.

After a quick glance, Harry's green pupils suddenly shrank.

He didn't even have time to follow the rehearsal process. He turned around and shouted:

"Be careful!"
