Professor of Gemology at Hogwarts

"I saw her looking around. I was concentrating with my eyes closed, preparing for sleep. Then I heard some noise, so I squinted my eyes and saw the little red-haired girl. I think she must have thought I was asleep! She thought Walk in front of me! That girl doesn’t understand the pain of insomnia!”

"Mr. Emery Switch, how tall is that girl? So tall?" Gray roughly gestured to Ginny's height based on his impression.

"Almost! And he's wearing the Hogwarts uniform."

"Okay, I understand, thank you, Mr. Emery Switch."

"Yes, I am actually very happy to help young people, especially those with vision." Emery Switch closed his eyes again, "Okay, I will continue to brew sleep!"

Unexpectedly, it was Ginny who stole the Vesuvius Stone.Gray was very surprised. Vesuvius stones only act as stabilizers. What did she do with taking those stones?

Back in the office, in order to confirm the magic power of the Vesuvius Stone and prevent the two stones from accidentally injuring Ginny, Gray dug out the "Encyclopedia of Classification of Crystals" that Franti often read during his lifetime. Got the annotation.He hasn't read it much since he became a professor.

At this time, a note suddenly fell out of the book:

"Hello, I'm glad you can read this note. You are a wizard and you can also spar. You may be my descendant because I only keep this book in my home. This note is sandwiched in the book Inside, it is revealed that magic is added. Only people who understand theoretical knowledge and have seen a certain number of crystals can see it. What I found, I hope people who see it can continue to study it. It is specifically in a book called "The Secret" - it’s often hidden in places that don’t look very safe.”

Gray was stunned. He had never seen any note in the book before.

"People who have seen a certain number of crystal stones..."

He was thoughtful, is it because he has been exposed to more crystal stones in the past six months?And that rare piece of petrified wood.

But what kind of book is this "The Obscurity"?Where is it?Could what she found be that Elliott Hill yeast?This undoubtedly added a specific goal to his aimless search for information - to find the book.

"We already have a note, so why don't you just write where the hidden secret is?" Gray was helpless.

He leaned back on the chair, held up the piece of paper, and thought for a long time. He had never seen a book called "The Secret".

The next morning after class, Ginny was called to the office by Gray.

She sat on the chair, her expression no longer as calm as last time, her eyes were wandering, and she kept picking her hands.

"Miss Weasley, did you sneak out of the lounge last night?"

"No...no..."

"Have you not been to my office? Did you take something by the way?" Gray asked directly.

Ginny's face turned pale immediately after hearing this, and she clasped her hands tightly: "I'm sorry, Professor, I...I..."

She frantically fumbled in her pocket twice and took out the two emerald green stones.

Gray was a little annoyed: "Tell me, why did you sneak into my office and steal the Vesuvius Stone?"

"I...I'm sorry...Professor." Ginny was about to cry. "I learned that Hermione was attacked...I felt scared...I wanted to save her. That day in your...office, I saw something on the table. Those two stones... I have read some extracurricular books... Vesuvius... It is said... that the Vesuvius Stone... can give people instructions... to get out of trouble... I think, maybe... I can... save Hermione..."

She put the stone on the table.

"Although Percy asks me about my situation every day...but...it's more like a routine for him...I don't understand why I have to put on such airs when greeting my sister...I am made fun of by others for wearing a shabby robe, but Hermione doesn't Same...she's my friend...she doesn't laugh at me...and every time Fred and George make fun of me...she...she helps me..."

"No one has proven that the Vesuvius Stone has this effect. This has always been a legend. If the legend is true, why don't I just use it to solve the problem of the secret room? Is it still delayed until now by guarding the two stones? Besides, even if it’s true, you can’t just steal it on your own initiative!”

Ginny wiped away her tears with her hands: "I'm sorry...Professor, I shouldn't steal things...Please...can you please don't tell others...they will laugh at me..."

Gray looked at Ginny with a blank expression, even if she had any reason, she did act and did steal, so she needed to be punished for that too.

"Twenty points from Gryffindor. No matter the reason, even if you were trying to save your friend. You did sneak into my office and steal them without my knowledge, Miss Weasley."

Ginny covered her face and cried harder: "I understand...I regret it...Professor, but you are right...I did steal something..."

Gray sighed and began to feel soft when he saw the little girl crying and thought about her situation after everyone knew about it.

"If anyone asks, I will tell them that you broke a precious stone when you came to my office to hand in your homework. But, Miss Weasley, this is your only and last chance!"

Ginny nodded and cried, "Thank you...thank you Professor."

"One more thing." Gray sat up straight, "Have you ever seen a black notebook?"

"A black...book?" She wiped her tears and kept her head down.

"Well, I lost it and it was probably picked up by a student or something."

"I haven't seen it before..." Ginny thought quietly for a long time, and finally shook her head, "The only notebook we use now is probably the crystal science notes. I also lost a black notebook...at the beginning of school. It was gone the first day.”

"Really? It seems like the black notebook is easy to lose. What does that notebook look like? I will help you keep an eye on it and tell you if I see it on weekdays." Gray asked hurriedly.

"It's black... very old, and it's blank inside." Ginny tried to remember, "I don't remember the details. I only turned it over once and saw that it was blank inside... I think it was left to me by my brother. It's an old notebook...it stayed in my suitcase throughout the holidays..."

"Huh? Didn't you take a closer look at that book? You described it so vaguely that it's hard to find."

Ginny raised her eyes to look at Gray, then looked away: "I think the book on crystal science... is more interesting... it's very novel, so I didn't care about the black book."

Does this mean that Ginny still doesn't know the secret in that diary?

"Are the classmates around you acting weird lately? Are they depressed? Or are they very nervous?"

Ginny raised her head, with tears still on her face. She didn't understand the reason for asking this, but she was thinking carefully about the people around her: "It seems there is no... professor."

"Okay..." Gray sighed, "You can leave. If anything unusual happens, remember to tell me."

"Thank you...Professor..."
