【HP】I don’t want to fall in love, I just want to mess around

Esther took out the cauldron and medicinal ingredients and began to brew the potion.

Polyjuice potion was a relatively simple potion for them, and Esther seemed very relaxed while chatting with others while brewing it.

There were many students hiding in the Room of Requirement. Esther counted about a dozen. The flags of Gryffindor, Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw were hung around the walls.

There is a large bookshelf next to it, filled with books, and there is a wooden radio next to it.

Neville didn't leave either. He and Ginny were sitting next to the radio, changing channels constantly. The Patil twins were cuddling together and talking quietly.

Not only did she return to school during this period, Ginny did not come back after Easter vacation until she returned through the Pig's Head Bar almost half a month ago.

At that time, Esther was still recovering from her injuries and did not come to Hogsmeade, so she missed meeting her.

The Patil sisters also did not come to school at the beginning of this semester, but Neville contacted them later, and they returned to school to fight alongside their peers.

There are also two brothers, Colin, who are Muggle wizards and did not come to school this year.

Dumbledore and Esther mentioned these things when they were at the Pig's Head Bar.

The polyjuice potion was boiled quickly, and she took out some other medicinal materials to brew some healing potions for everyone.

She has been preparing various things since she came to Hogsmeade. Although most of the shops in Hogsmeade have been closed, and there will be a curfew at night, as long as someone appears on the street, they will alert the Death Eaters. She was a disciple, but it was still safe during the day. She knew that the situation in the school was serious, so she prepared a lot of ingredients for the healing potion.

It took a lot of time to brew two potions, and by the time she finished, Neville and Ginny had already started handing out dinner to everyone.

Dinner was a very simple meal of bread and milk. In these special times, the food was naturally not as good as usual, but no one complained.

Esther put the cauldron and other things back into the small bag, took the food from Ginny, and then waved to Neville.

Neville saw him and came over quickly: "What's the matter? Ess?"

After not seeing each other for a while, Esther and Luna disappeared, and Ginny also disappeared for a while. He became the only leader of D.A in school. Compared with the shy little boy when we first met, his growth was obvious to the naked eye. visible.

"Here you go, share the healing potion with everyone."

Esther brewed two bottles and gave them all to him.

In fact, Esther noticed the injuries on his face when they met for the first time today. It was not only him, but also Ernie and Seamus. The most serious one was Seamus, one of his eyes was swollen. stand up.

"That's great!" Neville laughed as he held the two bottles of potion: "We can solve everything else by hiding here. It's just that the wound medicine is hard to get. As expected, Ess is the best, she can think of such things!"

"Isn't this great?" Esther said with a smile, "There are even better ones."

As she spoke, she pulled out a large pile of candy sponsored by the reformed Cedric and shouted to everyone, "Does anyone want some Honeydukes candy?"

One sentence attracts everyone's attention.

Since Dumbledore passed away and Snape became the headmaster, they have canceled the tradition of going to Hogsmeade. During this time, everyone has been rebelling against the Carrow brothers and sisters. The conditions are difficult and they have not eaten candy for a long time.

So of course everyone was excited when they saw such a large amount of candies, and they all said in unison: "I want it!"

Esther distributed the candies to everyone one by one, and Neville also distributed the potions to the injured classmates. With the sweet candies, everyone was rarely happy at this meal.

"Is Honeydukes Candy Store still open? Didn't I hear it closed long ago?"

Colin tilted his head and asked Esther.

Esther explained: "It was indeed closed long ago, but they still left a clerk there to watch the store to prevent it from being robbed and smashed. These candies were given to me by the clerk."

Ginny's ears twitched: "Is that the clerk who has a temperament that is very similar to Cedric's? I've heard that Qiu and him fell in love at first sight before. Although everyone thinks that Qiu regards him as Cedric's substitute, they should still Are you in love?"

Others may not know it clearly, but as someone who has had a crush on Harry for many years, Ginny clearly knows that Harry was obsessed with Qiu for a while. Even though she is now Harry's girlfriend, she is still very keen on things related to Qiu.

"We should still be talking." Esther gnawed on the bread slowly: "I'm not sure. After all, it's so dangerous outside now, and I don't dare to say more words to other people."

Neville also interjected: "Qiu contacted us some time ago. Through the gold coins we used to contact us, she also wanted to come and help everyone. She should be back soon."

Speaking of gold coins, Ginny looked at Esther again: "By the way, Esther, where are your gold coins? We couldn't contact you no matter how we contacted you later. Luna also told us at that time that you might have been in an accident, but we Scared to death.”

Esther was silent for a moment.

Her gold coins seemed to have been left in Draco's room.

"...I lost it. I'm sorry. Too many things happened during that time. I don't know where it was lost."

"It doesn't matter." Ernie said upon seeing this: "As long as you can come back safely, just throw it away. It's not really a gold galleon anyway."

Ernie looked at Esther's arm with some distress. He had just brewed the potion and rolled up the cuffs, revealing some scars.

Even though the wound had healed long ago, the scratch by the werewolf Greyback still left scars. Such scars were difficult to remove, just like the scars on Bill's face, they might stay with her for the rest of her life.

She was luckier than Bill in that she didn't have any other strange habits, such as liking to eat bloodshot steaks. This may be because she was only scratched and not bitten.

Esther noticed Ernie's eyes and subconsciously lowered her sleeves to cover the scar.

When Ernie saw her move, he silently withdrew his gaze and said nothing more.

She obviously still had wounds on her face, but she was worried that if she asked more questions, she would hurt her, so she simply kept silent.

Esther sighed silently, rolled up her cuffs again and said to Ernie: "You can take a look if you want. It's just some old injuries that have healed long ago. I think the injuries on your face are more serious."

Ernie looked at the scars on her hands, and even though she had said before that she had fought with werewolves, he couldn't help but feel distressed at this time.

"Boy, a few wounds on your face is nothing, but you have so many wounds, it must have been very painful at the time, right?"

Esther replied: "It doesn't hurt. It's nothing compared to the Cruciatus Curse in school."

Most of the students present had already been subjected to the Cruciatus Curse.
