Chapter 44: Hermione, do you want to bet? Bet on something exciting!
Rolf and Helena chatted in depth until midnight...
But all they talked about was the past of the Big Four.
It can be seen that Helena still misses that time very much. After all, as the daughter of Ravenclaw, she was like a princess at that time.
But it is a pity that after she stole the crown and was killed by the bloody Barrow, she died at the age of seventeen.
Luo Fe listened with great interest and stayed up late into the night. When he came to the auditorium the next morning, he looked sleepy and not very energetic.
As soon as he entered the auditorium, Ron rushed over, holding a smoking red letter in his hand.
"Rolf, you are finally here. How did you help Neville solve the problem last year..."
After just one glance, Rolf suddenly woke up and quickly pulled Neville back.
Ron was holding a roaring letter in his hand, but because it had not been opened for a long time, it was obviously on the verge of exploding.
Sure enough, the two of them had only retreated a few meters away when the roaring letter lit up with a brilliant white light and exploded, leaving black marks all over Ron's face.
The paper scraps were not scattered on the ground, but crackled and exploded above his head like firecrackers.
Ron held his head and ran away, but Paper Scrap chased him relentlessly.
"... I wouldn't be surprised if they fired you for stealing a car... Your dad will be under scrutiny at the Ministry of Magic and it's all your fault!
If you don’t behave yourself again, we will take you back right away, did you know that?!
Ron, I have never beaten you, but if you dare to disobey, I will really beat you again..."
Mrs. Weasley's voice echoed in the auditorium, and all the students raised their heads to see who had received the shouting letter.
Neville looked lucky. He also received a howling letter last year and was thrown into a black suitcase by Rolf, so he did not die socially.
But Ron was less lucky. He had seen Rolf helping Neville solve the howling letter, and he also wanted Rolf to help... But who knew he came too late.
Harry came over and helped the frightened Ron up. He was like a blind monk who discovered a bright spot, and said strangely:
"Hey, Ron, since Mrs. Weasley said she never hit you, why did she say 'hit you again'?"
"Maybe he was beaten before, but it caused Ron to lose his memory." Rolf thought for a while and gave a reasonable explanation: "Mrs. Weasley was probably too angry and accidentally let the news slip."
"..." It's okay to have amnesia.
Ron also looked stunned. He remembered that he was very smart when he was a child, but it seemed that he suddenly became stupid when he was six or seven years old.
It must have been damaged during that period, and even my memory is not good!
The more Ron thought about it, the more it made sense, and he immediately ran to the twins for confirmation!
Rolf and Neville walked towards the Hufflepuff table. If they didn't hurry up and have some breakfast, class would begin.
You can't be late for the first class, after all, it's the herbal medicine class of your dean.
Hermione, who had finished her meal and previewed her homework for a while, came over carrying a heavy schoolbag. She asked, "Why are you here so late?"
"I stayed up late studying until late last night." Luo Fe picked up a piece of butter bread and took a big bite.
"I believe you!" Hermione sat down on the chair, picked up a magazine and read it carefully.
Luofu glanced at the book in the girl's hand and asked curiously: "Why did you read "The Quibbler"?"
"Let me see if there is any interesting news!"
Luo Fu looked suspicious and said: "But yesterday on the train, you commented that this magazine is garbage and has no nutritional value!"
Hermione blushed and explained: "Some of the articles are quite interesting... I mean, it's still very..."
Seeing the young man's eyes glancing over, the girl hurriedly flipped through a few pages, starting from the article "Scamander Saves the Orient Express" that she had read several times, to the article proving that there are wizards on the moon.
"You find this article interesting?" Rove raised his eyebrows.
"Can't you?!" Hermione closed the magazine hard and snorted: "You care about me!"
Luofu had no choice but to continue eating breakfast.
Hermione picked up the magazine again and read the article, but it only mentioned that Rolf saved a Ministry of Magic witch and said that he was a kind veterinarian...
You have to wait for the next issue.
Damn it! Update soon!!
If you write so little, who can read it?
"By the way, Rolf, I took a look at the article about you...just took a casual look..." Hermione coughed and said:
"Why are Professor Lockhart always being accused of being a liar? They are also saying that he asked a wizard to pretend to be a Death Eater to stop the car?!
It is too much to slander a famous wizard like this!"
"In other places, Lovegood may have exaggerated, but his evaluation of Lockhart... is very accurate." Love said calmly: "He is a liar."
"How is it possible? He has written so many books and won so many awards. Dumbledore recruited him to be a teacher..."
"Quirrell was also recruited by Dumbledore." Rolf raised his eyebrows, gave Hermione a provocative look, and smiled:
"I won't argue with you. Do you dare to bet? I bet he is a liar."
Hermione puffed up her cheeks and said, "Okay! I don't believe he is a liar!"
"Let's not bet on Galleons. Let's bet on something bigger?" Luofu struck while the iron was hot and said, "You decide on the bet."
Hermione also said decisively: "Okay, this is what you said. If you lose when the time comes, don't deny it."
Rolf had a bright smile. He specialized in treating tough talk and would help Hermione soften her words.
The girl took advantage of him not paying attention and glared at him again.
Neville covered his forehead, Hermione had a typical short memory.
Sigh... She is obviously the smartest student, so why does she always look stupid when facing Luo Fu?
He doesn't understand!
After finishing their meal, the group of people hurriedly walked toward the greenhouse. As they approached the door, they unexpectedly bumped into Lockhart.
Lockhart followed Professor Sprout and walked from the Whomping Willow. After seeing the students, he smiled and said:
"Oh, hello! I just showed Professor Sprout how to heal the Whomping Willow!
But I don’t want you to think that I am better than her in herbal medicine! I just happened to see a few of these strange plants during my travels..."
Professor Sprout looked very unhappy. If there were no students around, she would have wanted to put a hoe on Lockhart's head to inoculate him.
Harry was pulled away by Lockhart, as if he wanted to communicate with him.
"Everyone go to the third greenhouse!" Professor Sprout took a big key from his belt and opened the door.
Last school year, they were still in the first greenhouse, and the plants there were said to be far less dangerous than the third greenhouse.
After entering the greenhouse, Professor Sprout came over and asked in a low voice:
"Rolf, I heard Dumbledore say that you can heal injuries just by touching... Is this magic of yours useful on the Whomping Willow?"
"It shouldn't work. This magic only targets magical creatures." Rolf said softly:
"But I have other magic that can speed up the growth of plants. This should also help the Whomping Willow recover quickly."
"Okay, then come with me to take a look after class." Professor Sprout became happy again.
Luofu thought for a while, then suddenly grinned and said:
"Professor, since Professor Lockhart said he would heal the Whomping Willow, why not let him give it a try?"
Professor Sprout's eyes lit up and he said:
"Yes, you are right!"
