Hogwarts: I inherited my legacy
Chapter 656 Awkward Meeting
Leaning back in the chair, Hermione frowned slightly.
His lips moved slightly, as if he was silently organizing words in his mind, but no sound came out.
Pappy on the side looked very quiet. She just gently picked up the tea cup and sipped the black tea gracefully, neither urging Hermione nor disturbing her.
Although Pappy didn't know the whole story, the few words Ron had revealed before were enough for her to piece together a rough outline.
I guess the strange behavior of Hermione at this moment, as well as the actions of Ron and the other three, are all related to the letter sent by Charlie, right?
And unlike Harry and the others, maybe Hermione has already thought of some truth?
Thinking of this, Pappy couldn't help but gently rub his temples, smiling bitterly in his heart.
When he first sneaked into the school disguised as a little wizard from the family, she thought it was quite interesting.
But now it seems...
Especially when your true identity may be exposed, it feels really uncomfortable.
Pabbie knew that even with his current state of mind and experience, he would still feel somewhat uncomfortable facing this situation.
Well... to put it bluntly, it’s because she’s not as thick-skinned as Riven!
It was okay if no one discovered it before, but once it was discovered, it would be really embarrassing.
Can you imagine Professor McGonagall pretending to be a young wizard studying in Gryffindor, only to have her true identity revealed?
At this moment, the two could only wait silently.
I hope that the most shameless guy will send the alchemical doll he created to come to the rescue and resolve the embarrassing stalemate.
Time passed by, but the expected reinforcements never arrived.
Instead, there was only the enticing aroma of ramen, accompanied by the uniform sound of slurping noodles coming from the window.
Obviously, Raven won't show up anytime soon.
After some careful consideration, Pappy realized that there was no other way to break the impasse.
In that case, she decided to just go ahead with the plan she had made previously.
In fact, Pabbie knew very well that sooner or later she would face a situation like today.
After all, people like her and Raven rarely lie actively.
They had expected Hermione to come to them and question them directly.
Because of this, a long time ago, Raven carefully planned a set of response words for Pabbie in advance, specifically to deal with the embarrassing situation that may arise when this kind of "falling off the horse" occurs.
Although these words are indeed somewhat shameless, in the current embarrassing situation, Pappy believes that this is the time to use such shameless words.
"Ahem..." Pappy deliberately coughed twice to break the silent atmosphere.
Then she took the initiative to speak,
"I originally thought that after you came back, you would immediately go to the Heshidry Islands to visit me."
The so-called pre-emptive strike, knocking out the perpetrators, and the first to complain is probably the case.
In short, Pappy must first maintain his own aura and momentum. Only in this way can he have the upper hand in the subsequent conversation and avoid being at a disadvantage.
Although Hermione is a smart little witch, she is still too simple and naive after all.
After all, in terms of routines, he is far inferior to Papi, an old man who is red when he is close to red and black when he is close to ink.
Of course, the more crucial reason is that she never expected that
She and her friend are connected by heart, and her friend and she use their brains.
As a result, he fell into Papi's trap so easily.
Under Pappy's resentful and slightly angry questioning, Hermione's face turned red, and she avoided his gaze, not daring to meet his gaze.
He stammered: "I... I thought you were... gone by then."
Her voice became lower and lower, as if she herself felt that this reason was somewhat untenable.
"After all, if you were still alive, how could there be a new Black Dragon Witch? So, I...I never dared to come to you. I'm sorry, Pappy..."
At the end, Hermione actually took the initiative to apologize to Pappy.
This actually made Pabbie, who was already a little guilty, feel even more embarrassed. She murmured to herself: Was her attitude just now too much?
The originally tense and solemn atmosphere gradually eased due to the guilt in the two people's hearts.
At this point, Pappy, who had taken the initiative in the conversation, certainly didn't want to let the topic go back to the starting point, so she cleverly changed the topic.
"So, how do you know my identity now? To be honest, I thought you should have guessed it a long time ago! After all, Raven and I didn't deliberately hide our characteristics."
Hermione couldn't help but twitch the corners of her mouth slightly, but after thinking about it carefully, what Pappy said did make sense.
A long time ago, she had a vague hunch in her heart that the two people in front of her were very similar to the two friends she had met a hundred years ago.
This feeling comes from Hermione's keen sixth sense, but as a Muggle-born witch who firmly believes that reason is better than intuition,
In the absence of solid evidence, she would always instinctively avoid the answer that came from deep within her heart and deny all the speculations in her mind.
Especially when these speculations may have a negative impact on her friends, she prefers to remain cautious.
In fact, excessive pursuit of rationality is not a quality that a wizard should have.
