Esther followed Neville back to Hogwarts through the secret passage.

"Everyone, come here quickly and see who's back?"

As soon as he entered the Room of Requirement, Neville shouted loudly. As he shouted, he pushed Esther behind him to the front.

Esther saw that there were many people in the Room of Requirement at this time, Ginny, Ernie, Susan, Hannah, Colin, Lavender, Seamus...

Some are the first members of d.a, and some are students who were later recruited into the d.a team.

She smiled and greeted everyone: "Long time no see, everyone!"

Seeing her appearance, everyone had shocked looks on their faces. The next second, Ernie ran towards her quickly, followed by Hannah, Susan and Ginny.

They rushed over and hugged her tightly. Because there were so many people, Esther felt like she couldn't breathe and almost suffocated.

"Ais!"

Ernie called her name and couldn't help but burst into tears. He cried and said, "I knew you would be fine!"

"Great, you're back!" Ginny couldn't help but choked.

Seeing how excited they were, Neville quickly separated them: "Okay, don't be so excited, you're so strangled that Ess can hardly breathe."

Only then did they let Esther go. Ernie wiped the tears from his face and gave Esther a hug again: "Welcome back, Esther!"

"Welcome back!"

Others couldn't help but cheer.

Esther's eyes suddenly felt hot, and she held back tears and looked at everyone.

Ernie rubbed the top of her head and comforted her: "Okay, okay, tell us about your experience during this time."

Esther had already told it many times, but facing these pairs of concerned eyes, she still picked out what she could tell.

Everyone was amazed when they heard this, and they all sighed that Esther was lucky.

After talking about her own experience, Esther asked everyone about their recent experiences.

After Esther disappeared, everyone returned to school on Christmas Day. The days were the same as usual, except that the Carlo brothers and sisters oppressed the students more severely. Only then did Esther realize that it was the Carlo brothers and sisters who had released the news of her death.

Everyone's resistance continued, and some students later hid directly in the Room of Requirement, relying on Aberforth's supplies and things sent by other students to survive.

The Room of Requirement has become completely different from when Esther left. In addition to everyone's training ground, many daily necessities have been added, such as some tents, sleeping bags and the like.

To her surprise, Ernie was also one of the people hiding here.

Facing Esther's surprised look, Ernie explained: "They kept saying that you were dead. I don't believe that some conflicts broke out with them. I have been hiding here for my own safety."

He said it calmly, but she knew better than anyone how vicious the Carlo brothers and sisters were. When she heard Ernie's words, she almost couldn't help crying.

"Why has Ais become so crybaby after not seeing each other for a while? Is this still our Hufflepuff star who is always calm and composed?"

Susan quipped.

Esther burst out laughing: "What Hufflepuff star? You didn't scream it randomly."

"Everyone's eyes are sharp. You are our Hufflepuff, no, you should be said to be the brightest star in Hogwarts!" Colin on the side squeezed over and made an exaggerated move that made everyone laugh. .

"That's not worth it. The Hogwarts Star won't be my turn, and Harry and the others are ahead."

Esther shook her head, not daring to accept their exaggerated compliments.

As soon as Harry was mentioned, everyone's topic turned to the three Harrys who were fleeing outside.

"I wonder how Harry and the others are doing?" Seamus asked worriedly: "There are so many Death Eaters out there arresting them, they must have a harder time than us."

Ginny pursed her lips. She was Harry's girlfriend, Ron's sister and Hermione's good friend. She was more worried about their safety than everyone present.

And because her family members had joined the resistance against Voldemort, she had been hiding in the Room of Requirement during this period.

"I met them some time ago, and on the day I escaped from Ma Fu Manor, they were also captured by Death Eaters." Seeing that everyone was really worried, Esther couldn't help but reveal something: "They were captured When he lived there, it must have been Hermione who had magic. It changed Harry's face beyond all recognition. The Death Eaters didn't dare to confirm whether he was Harry, so they asked... Malfoy to identify it."

Esther's words instantly attracted everyone's attention, and everyone listened nervously as Esther continued: "I don't know why Malfoy didn't recognize Harry, but they escaped with the help of the house elves."

After everyone heard Esther finish speaking in one breath, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

"Great, as long as Harry is not caught, we still have hope!"

"Did Malfoy really not recognize Harry? Did he have other plots in mind? For example, he wanted to take credit without telling other Death Eaters, but he messed up?"

"Who knows? Anyway, he went back to school two days ago, and he doesn't like to talk much. His presence is much weaker than before."

Everyone was talking.

Esther's eyes moved. She tried her best to control her emotions and remained silent for the time being.

After chatting for a long time, the students who were still attending school were ready to leave. They would be easily discovered if they were missing for too long.

Ginny was busy making Esther's bed. It was only then that Esther said, "Everyone, I need to go back to the Hufflepuff lounge. Who is willing to contribute some of those very important things?" My own hair? I need to make Polyjuice Potion.”

"I am willing!"

Lavender raised her hands high, and as she spoke, she looked around for scissors to cut her hair.

Hannah also said at this time: "Since we have to go back to the Hufflepuff lounge, it's more convenient to use my hair."

"But wouldn't it be more strange if two Hannahs suddenly appeared in the lounge?" Lavender said disapprovingly.

She was impatient and had already cut off a lock of her own hair.

She was so kind, and Esther didn't want to live up to it. She took her hair and said to Hannah: "It's okay, anyone's hair is fine. Anyway, I know how to enter the Chipachi lounge."

When Hannah saw her saying this, she said nothing more.

Neville asked: "Do you have the ingredients to make Polyjuice Potion? If not, I can ask Professor Slughorn for some help?"

"Don't worry." Esther patted the small bag she carried with her: "I'm ready."

Neville glanced hesitantly at the small, flat cloth bag that was only the size of his palm, a little doubtful whether there were any medicinal materials inside.

Esther seemed to see his doubts and explained: "I used magic. This bag looks small but actually contains a lot of things."
