Chapter 3018(2/3)
Obviously, Ron was angry, but he couldn't find any suitable rebuttal to Hermione's statement and metaphor.
"Ron..."
"I think Hermione is right..."
Finally, Harry, who had finished copying his homework while listening, put away the paper and pen, patted Ron on the shoulder and tried to appease the other person's emotions.
"Although Anne didn't invite us, you know, it's not without gain for us to stay in school for these two weeks."
"Right?"
With that said, Harry quickly gave Ron a wink.
"I……"
Ron groaned and muttered under his breath, but finally followed Harry's words.
"That's right!"
“At least we had a great Christmas dinner, you’ll never know how good the roast turkey was that night!”
"That's delicious!"
As a result, Ron looked like he had endless aftertaste.
"Yes."
"And those desserts, especially the special chocolate frog from Honeydukes Candy Shop, I still have endless recollections of it."
Harry on the side also quickly started to assist, because this was something they had discussed and rehearsed before.
"And the most important thing!"
"We also found a strange room in the school, Hermione, you have no idea what's in it!"
In this way, while singing and singing with Harry, Ron finally found a topic to show off, and looked at the slightly surprised Hermione triumphantly.
"oh?"
"Room?"
"What's in it?"
As expected, Hermione was fooled. She didn't bother to continue to show off her knowledge, but raised her eyebrows curiously and asked.
"That room!"
"There is a super impressive mirror inside, as if someone put it there temporarily!"
Harry quickly took over the conversation, a hint of excitement flashed in his eyes.
"We discovered that it is a magical mirror. When we stand in front of the mirror, our most pressing wishes and thoughts will appear in the mirror."
"I saw my parents and family. They were greeting me and smiling. Unfortunately, they couldn't speak, hear, or touch..."
As he spoke, while Harry was excited, a hint of sadness and nostalgia could not help but appear in his eyes.
"Yes!"
"I also saw myself becoming a Gryffindor prefect a few years later, and then I became captain of the Gryffindor team and led Gryffindor to win the Quidditch Cup."
"I was also riding a Firebolt at that time, and I had a lot of money..."
"I think it might be a magic mirror that can reflect a person's future?"
Ron also hurriedly said proudly, but when he thought that Harry was taking pictures of his dead parents and family, he became a little uncertain and unconfident, and was not so sure of what he just said.
"But it's a pity..."
"When Harry went there on the last day, he met Professor Dumbledore and he moved the mirror away."
"Hermione..."
"That should be the reason why Professor Dumbledore hurried back to Hogwarts from Anne's house as you said in your letter. You should have asked Anne to keep him for a few more days."
Check out the correct version one by one!
"It's a pity that when we went back, the mirror was gone."
With that said, Ron glanced at Hermione resentfully again.
"And that kind of mirror?"
"That's really amazing!"
"But why did Principal Dumbledore take it away?"
Hermione opened her mouth in surprise, then continued to ask.
"have no idea……"
Ron sighed, with a disappointed expression similar to Harry's.
"Professor Dumbledore said: That magic mirror has powerful magic, but what it shows is not the real thing. It can only reflect the most urgent desire of a person's heart?"
"It cannot teach us knowledge, nor can it predict the future. It can only make people unbalanced and even become obsessed with it and go crazy."
"He was worried that we would be confused by it and indulge in that false fantasy, so he moved away the next day."
After saying that, Ron sighed again, because even if he knew it was an illusion, he still wanted to look at it occasionally, because that mirror really fascinated him.
As long as they look at it, no matter what they are thinking, it will immediately reflect it. There is simply nothing that fascinates them more than that.
Ron even began to imagine, and if Professor Dumbledore could come back a few days later, after receiving Hermione's letter, he would definitely imagine that he lived in a fortress like Anne's house.
Then enjoy the various service scenes of those beautiful Veela maids, it must be very charming, right?
Unfortunately, before they could continue to peek, Harry was discovered...
"So that's it!"
"I see."
Hermione nodded in understanding.
"Principal Dumbledore is always so cautious. He must be doing this for your own good. After all, as you know, there are too many temptations and dangers in the magical world."
"You must never look for that mirror again!"
Then, of course, Hermione entered the preaching mode again, and seriously warned the two friends in front of her like a little adult.
"..."
However, looking at the homework on the table, Harry was silent for a moment and then slowly said:
"actually……"
"I also know that it's not good to do that, but I still can't help but miss that magic mirror."
"You don't know, I've never seen what my parents look like, but it was photographed, and I'm pretty sure that's what my parents looked like!"
"I don't know where Dumbledore hid it..."
As he said this, Harry actually began to complain about Dumbledore, the headmaster.
"yes!"
"I also miss being a prefect and winning the Quidditch Cup..."
Ron also sighed with emotion, with that complicated and strange expression on his face. People who didn't know better might have thought that he had really become a prefect and Quidditch captain!
"you!"
"It seems that Principal Dumbledore did the right thing. That magic mirror will really make you crazy!"
Shaking her head, Hermione glared at the two of them angrily and warned them again.
"Right!"
At this time, Ron suddenly remembered something, and he didn't want to pull the magic mirror that had been moved anymore. After looking around, he quickly asked:
"Hermione, where's Anne?"
"She didn't come back with you?"
"No!"
"She's back. I just met her outside when I went to the bathroom!"
"ah?"
"It's so late, it's almost curfew in the castle, why is she still going out?"
"Um!"
"I asked, and she said Professor McGonagall asked her to go."
"Professor McGonagall?"
"What's the matter?"
"Then I don't know..."
Slumping her shoulders and shaking her head, Hermione said that she had just come back from the bathroom and had not met Annie again. How could she know what happened to Professor McGonagall?
To be continued...
