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

Hogwarts returned to a peaceful life for a few days, and laughter filled the campus again.

Students who left school also secretly returned to campus, and some were already graduated students, such as the Weasley twins and their good friend Lee Jordan.

Not long after, Donna and Fiona also returned. Ariana was originally going to come with them, but she had a minor illness and was hospitalized before departure, so she didn't follow them.

There were endless things to say to the classmates whom I had not seen for a long time. Everyone stayed together every day to share their experiences during this period. Esther chatted and laughed with everyone, but she never let down her guard. As the only one who knew that the war was coming, She is more stressed than anyone else.

Fortunately, she hid it well and no one noticed her nervousness, including Draco.

Everyone no longer has to secretly practice dueling skills in the Room of Requirement. Instead, they can act openly in the castle, and even Professor Flitwick teaches them personally.

Everyone studied hard, even though a large number of them had no idea that school would become a battlefield in the future.

Without letting Esther wait for a few days, Neville brought Harry and the others back from the Room of Requirement.

The students were once again in a state of excitement, and they rushed forward to hug Harry and the others.

Ginny almost cried with joy.

Harry and the others were also very moved, especially when they heard Neville tell everyone's experiences during this period and how Esther led them to fight back on the road. His blood boiled with excitement and he couldn't help cheering for them in his heart.

The moment Esther saw Harry and the others, she finally felt like the dust had settled.

"Everyone! I need you to do me a favor now!"

After a brief greeting, Harry said to everyone: "I need everyone to help me find something, something that belongs to Ravenclaw."

"Are you talking about Ravenclaw's diadem?" Among all the Ravenclaw students present, Luna was the first to think: "Ravenclaw's missing diadem?"

Her words were like a stone stirring up a thousand waves, and the Ravenclaw students all told what they knew about the diadem.

Some say that wearing this crown can increase the wisdom of the wearer; some say that the crown has disappeared centuries ago, and perhaps no one except Ravenclaw itself knows where it is; others suggest asking Professor Flitwick. Ask, maybe he knows.

In the midst of the buzzing discussion, Harry's expression had changed from the initial excitement at the mention of the crown to anxiety. He whispered to Ron next to him: "He's on his way to Hogwarts." .”

Esther stood next to Hermione and did not join in the discussion, so she heard this sentence.

She knew that the "he" Harry was talking about deserved to be Voldemort.

Forgive her for publishing the answer just to keep up with the schedule.

She said silently at this time: "In fact, we can ask the ghost of Ravenclaw, Ms. Gray. As far as I know, she has some blood relationship with Ravenclaw. Maybe he knows where the crown is hidden."

After Esther finished speaking, everyone looked at her, and Qiu was even more surprised: "Where did you hear this? We don't know about this."

"I heard it from the portrait." Esther replied: "They have been at Hogwarts for a long time and know a lot of things."

This was not an excuse to deceive them, but he did know a lot from the portraits, and one portrait even revealed a bit of the love-hate relationship between Professor Snape and Lily to Esther.

When she complained to the portraits that Professor Snape gave too many homework.

Harry could hardly wait. He only had time to say to everyone: "Voldemort is on his way to Hogwarts." Then he hurriedly pulled Ron and Hermione to find Ms. Grey.

When the other students heard what he said, the younger ones began to panic. However, the D.A members who had already experienced the storm had already realized this, so they were still calm. Some of them went to tell Professor McGonagall the news. Some people helped Harry and the others to find Ms. Grey.

Esther calculated the time and felt that it was still too late, so she turned around to find Professor Slughorn. After knocking on his office door, she explained her purpose to him.

"Sorry to disturb you, Professor, I would like to borrow your office and materials to brew some healing potion."

For some reason, Professor Slughorn was very surprised by her sudden appearance. He opened his mouth wide and muttered: "What's going on? Why are everyone coming here to brew the healing potion?"

While muttering, he let Esther in.

He obviously hadn't received the news that Voldemort was about to lay siege to Hogwarts.

Esther was a little surprised by his words. She poked her head inside and met the eyes of Draco who was also stunned.

"You...how did you come up with the idea of ​​brewing a potion?"

Esther couldn't describe her feelings at this time. When Harry returned just now, he didn't avoid other students. In addition, Draco was also a member of D·A. Neville informed the members of D·A when Harry returned. , news that Draco should be able to accept. Esther originally thought that after receiving the news, he would first ask Harry to get his wand back, but she didn't expect that he would appear here.

"Because I know you won't back down."

So I'm afraid you'll get hurt.

Esther blinked and wiped away the tears that came from the corners of her eyes, and said with a bright smile on her face: "Draco, I love you so much!"

Only Professor Slughorn, who was looking for medicinal ingredients for Esther, looked confused: "What are you doing? Why do you suddenly have to boil healing potions?"

Because he had just gone inside to look for materials, he just missed the conversation between them.

He disliked everything and everyone associated with Voldemort and Death Eaters. The Malfoy family had obviously defected to Voldemort, so he did not welcome Draco's sudden visit at first.

It was just Draco's repeated pleas, and the anxiety on his face couldn't be faked. He didn't know what happened to him, but he was still just a young boy after all, so he finally relented and let him in.

As a result, not long after she came in, Esther also ran over in a panic to brew a healing potion.

He doesn't quite understand.

"Go find Professor McGonagall." Esther couldn't help but remind him when she saw his confused look: "Harry came back just now, and he told us that the mysterious man is coming to Hogwarts."

"What?" Professor Slughorn's face changed with shock, and he ran out in a panic without thinking much.

I even forgot to close the office door.

"I thought you would go to Harry and the others first to get your wand back."

With no outsiders around, Esther chatted with Draco easily.

He also wanted to give him a hug, but the timing was wrong and she had to brew the potion quickly.

"I had this plan, but..." Draco took out a wand from his pocket: "I took Crabbe's wand that day. Although it doesn't work, it can be used."
