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

After what happened yesterday, Professor Snape indeed intensified his questioning of Esther in Potions class. Esther reluctantly resisted, feeling exhausted.

She felt that if this continued, she would sooner or later become a new generation of Potions Master under the "spur" of Professor Snape.

Even if she doesn't really like Potions class.

Esther often ran into Hermione and the others in the library recently.

Ron and Harry marveled at Esther's feat of beating Draco last time. After this incident, they already regarded Esther as a friend.

Maybe this is the so-called common hatred and hatred.

Esther didn't have much communication with them. After all, there was one Gryffindor and one Hufflepuff. The only chance they could meet was in the library and when they went to the auditorium to eat, and even if they did meet, they would only say hello. At most, they chatted for a few words, which did not involve the secrets of their investigation.

"Aren't you curious about the news that others found out when we used Polyjuice Potion for Christmas?"

One time when he met them again in the library, Ron fell asleep listening to her and Hermione chatting about the knowledge in Transfiguration class, and then suddenly thought of this question and asked it.

Esther, who was chatting with Hermione, stopped. She looked up at Ron and said, "I guess nothing was found out, because I have already said that Malfoy is not the heir of Slytherin at all."

Ron flatly said: "Yes, he is indeed not, but we haven't found anything. At least we know that the secret room was opened 50 years ago."

At this point, Ron's face paused, and he glanced at Harry next to him. Seeing that his expression didn't change much, he covered it with a book. He lowered his voice and continued to talk to Esther: "Harry got a book recently. The diary was left by a man named Tom Riddle 50 years ago."

When Ron said this, Esther's heart skipped a beat.

Well, the plot has progressed to this point, and they came into contact with the 16-year-old Voldemort's Horcrux without knowing anything.

And is she allowed to hear these things?

She wanted to block her ears and stop listening, but it was obviously impossible.

"Tom told us that Hagrid opened the secret room 50 years ago. He released a huge spider and killed a Ravenclaw girl."

Esther pretended to be surprised and covered her mouth in a slightly exaggerated manner. Fortunately, the three of them were not good at acting together and did not see any problems.

"What a big secret! So what do you decide to do?"

Harry pushed his eyes and said slightly irritably: "We just don't know what to do, Hagrid..."

Rubeus Hagrid, the keykeeper and gamekeeper of Hogwarts, is a half-blood giant who has a good relationship with Harry and the others. I think Harry and the others must have been very uncomfortable.

It must have been a huge shock to them to suddenly discover that their burly friend, with whom they were close, was responsible for the recent attacks.

Esther cleared her throat and whispered to them: "Maybe what happened 50 years ago was related to Hagrid, but it does not mean that the attacks that occurred now are also related to Hagrid. Why would he, a hybrid giant, help Slytherin eliminate Muggle wizard? It makes no sense. I think it’s better to pretend not to know until there are no new attacks.”

Esther's words touched their hearts. Harry breathed a sigh of relief and nodded firmly.

Hagrid was the one who introduced him to the magical world. He trusted Hagrid very much. Regarding the fact that Hagrid was responsible for the attack, even though he had seen with his own eyes what happened 50 years ago, he still did not want to believe that Hagrid would Do this kind of thing.

Even someone as smart as Esther felt that it might not be Hagrid, which more or less relieved his psychological burden.

What he didn't know was that Esther knew the development of the plot and that they had chosen not to go to Hagrid for the time being. Of course, she also knew that Hagrid had been framed and the real murderer had always been the young Voldemort.

It was true 50 years ago and it will be true 50 years from now.

So she just followed the plot and talked a lot of nonsense, without making any useful suggestions at all.

She would have liked Harry to hand the diary directly to Dumbledore, but what would be the consequences of doing so?

She didn't know, so she didn't dare to do it.

Time passes day by day, and it’s almost Easter in a blink of an eye.

The second-grade students are currently busy choosing the classes they will take in the third grade. Ernie struggled with this for a long time and even asked Esther to help him make the choice.

Esther didn't know what he was struggling with. There were only a few choices anyway, so what was there to worry about?

But since he gave her the choice, she chose Magical Creatures and Ancient Runes for him.

Ernie asked her to choose, but he was not satisfied when she did choose. He felt that ancient runes were too difficult, and he also didn't like magical creatures very much, so Esther's suggestion was invalidated and he continued to struggle.

On this day, news spread among the students that the Gryffindor boys' dormitory had been invaded by someone unknown, and Harry Potter's clothes had been rummaged through, but fortunately nothing was missing.

Esther heard this news from her Hufflepuff classmates during dinner.

Most people believe that this was done by a Gryffindor fan of Harry. Since students from other houses cannot enter the Gryffindor lounge, it can only be done by Gryffindor.

Of course, some people hold objections and think that it may have been done by some kind of magical creature.

In short, no matter who did it, although everyone talked about it, they all treated it as an after-dinner joke.

If this happened to other students, it might not become a topic of conversation, but because Harry is the savior who defeated the Dark Lord, his every move is noticeable.

Only Esther knew that the attack on Gryffindor's dormitory was a signal.

In the original book, Ginny, who was controlled by Voldemort's soul fragment, entered Harry's dormitory and took away the notebook. The following plot is: Hermione Granger was attacked and petrified, and the board of directors exerted pressure to cause Principal Dumbledore to Resigned, and then Ginny disappeared after a while. Harry and Ron learned the truth from Hagrid's Acromantula, entered the chamber of secrets, killed Voldemort's Horcrux, and rescued Ginny.

Oh, during this period, he also tricked Lockhart, causing him to lose his memory and become an idiot.

Esther thought quickly while thinking about the plot.

The peaceful life during this period was going to be interrupted, and it would be more dangerous in the castle for a while, so she decided to try not to be alone no matter what.

Fortunately, her and Draco's labor reform ended early.

Although the first day was unpleasant, they did not mess with each other in the following days, and Professor Snape did not ask them to deal with slugs, so they passed by peacefully.

She is now extremely eager for everything to end quickly and enter the summer vacation.

She had never been forced to study so hard in her life, and her life was so difficult.

I really don't like studying.

I don’t even like doing homework.
