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

In the next few days, Ernie still tirelessly requested to visit Justin. The rejections again and again did not dispel his confidence. Instead, he became more and more frustrated, and finally even regarded this as a challenge.

This gave Madam Pomfrey a headache.

She complained about this to her colleagues, and other professors commented that recent Hufflepuff students had behaved less and less like Hufflepuffs.

For example, Esther Mayne, the "extra points madman", is more like Ravenclaw than Hufflepuff; and Donna Hunter is more like a brave and fearless Gryffindor.

Sprout said cheerfully that there must be a reason why the Sorting Hat sorted them into Hufflepuff.

Esther has been very busy recently. The exam time is approaching and she is reviewing her homework every day.

In fact, she didn't want to study so hard at first, but her roommates kept asking her questions, and she reviewed it with them without knowing it.

Even though the exam was approaching, Ernie still went to the infirmary every day, sometimes dragging Esther along.

Esther would have been reluctant to go with him before, but recently she was happy to.

Because this is her rare time to relax.

On this day, Madam Pomfrey, who was helpless, finally relented and agreed for them to go in and visit Justin for a while. Ernie was overjoyed and pulled Esther into the infirmary.

Justin still maintained his petrified posture, with a horrified expression, as if he had seen something terrible.

Ernie's mood dropped, and he sat silently beside Justin's bed.

Esther took the opportunity to look at the other petrified students.

They were placed side by side on the hospital bed, and Esther caught sight of Hermione and then noticed that she seemed to be holding something in her hand.

She knew the plot of the original work, so she looked at her hands immediately, because what she held in her hands was a crucial clue.

Esther hesitated for a moment, but decided to leave it alone.

Anyway, Harry and the others will discover this clue sooner or later.

But who knew that while she was staring blankly for a while, she attracted Ernie's attention.

He said "Huh" and came over: "Granger seems to be holding something in his hand?"

Esther felt bad because she didn't expect Ernie to have such sharp eyes.

So she had to take the things out of Hermione's hands before Ernie did.

Flattening the crumpled paper, Esther took a look at the content. Sure enough, it was information about the basilisk.

Ernie leaned over to take a look, but Esther subconsciously hid for a moment, then quickly put the paper away: "Oh, this is a fragment of a book about ancient runes. I suspect that Granger was attacked just in time. I was reading a book about ancient runes and accidentally tore a page out.”

She acted very calmly and successfully deceived Ernie.

Of course, the main reason is because Ernie doesn't like ancient runes.

He stopped questioning and stayed in the infirmary with Esther for a while before being kicked out by Madam Pomfrey.

Esther held the information about the basilisk and searched for Harry and Ron in the crowd without leaving any trace.

This clue that they should have found fell into her hands, and she had to find an opportunity to send it back to Harry.

But since everyone was acting together recently, there was really no chance for them. Esther thought about it and then came up with an idea.

She took out a diary, pinned the clue about the basilisk with a pin, and then left a note explaining how she got the page.

Then he walked to the Gryffindor table very naturally and handed the book to Harry: "This is the review material I borrowed from Hermione some time ago. I think you also need this now. I will return it to you now. Remember not to I lost it, this is very important, go back to the dormitory and check carefully."

She bit down the last sentence extra hard, and the hint was obvious. She saw Harry's eyes move, as if he understood her hint.

"Okay, I know."

He took the notes naturally and put them in his schoolbag.

Esther breathed a sigh of relief and turned to leave.

What happens next is up to Harry.

At breakfast the next day, Professor McGonagall announced that the mandrakes were ripe and the petrified students could return to normal tonight.

This is undoubtedly good news and makes everyone feel much better.

Esther also cheered and clapped, but actually she felt a little restless.

If there are no accidents, today will be the final match between Harry and the Dark Lord's Horcrux.

Esther hid in the crowd with unspeakable emotions.

Sure enough, during the afternoon class, Professor McGonagall suddenly and seriously informed all students to return to their respective lounges immediately, and all teachers to return to the staff lounge immediately.

Various accidents have been happening recently. Although everyone felt it was sudden, they still went back obediently.

At least that's the case with Hufflepuff.

Everyone was talking a lot on the way, thinking that another attack must have happened this time.

I just got the news this morning that the mandrake is about to mature. Before everyone was happy, something went wrong again, which inevitably dampened everyone's mood.

As usual, by the time they returned to the common room, the almighty Hufflepuff had already figured out what was going on.

Although the information is vague, it is generally certain that Ginny Weasley of Gryffindor encountered an accident this time.

really.

The big showdown of the semester is here.

Esther thought expressionlessly while eating a small round biscuit.

Ginny Weasley is a pureblood, and the panic caused by her attack is no less than that of Penelope Crevat last time.

This means that the heir of Slytherin attacks people regardless of your bloodline, and is most likely random.

At this time, the pure-blood students couldn't sit still anymore and began to communicate among themselves, using their imaginations to guess who did it.

Esther ate and listened silently to their conversation.

She knew who did it. It was the Dark Lord's Horcrux that controlled Ginny Weasley to open the Chamber of Secrets, causing everything that happened next.

But others don't know, they have begun to guess that the heir may not be a Slytherin student, because if he is a Slytherin student, according to their "pure-blood supremacy" concept, at least they will not attack pure blood.

Of course, there are also objections.

Because the Weasley family has always been called "pure-blood traitors." If someone who hates the Weasley family is the heir of Slytherin, there is a high possibility that Ginny Weasley will be attacked.

Because we couldn't go out, we could only get together and chat.

After Esther finished eating the small bag of biscuits, she still felt a little anxious.

She felt like a father waiting outside the delivery room for the birth of his child. He was anxious and unable to enter the delivery room, so he could only wait.

So in order to relieve her anxiety, she decided to write two homeworks to calm down her anxiety.
