"Anita, you are too difficult to date, you have to let me tempt you with Chinese food before you come out." Hermione complained.

Anita stuffed a spicy stick into her mouth and gave Hermione a flattering smile.Anita didn't want to stay at home for the whole summer vacation, but she basically spent the whole summer vacation studying the magic circle with Draco and Mr. Diary.Anita originally thought that making the Philosopher's Stone was the most difficult part of the diary's resurrection, but who knew that the magic circle used for the resurrection would be a little more complicated.This time, if the Diary Master and Draco hadn't forced her to go out to get some air, maybe even the food from the big food country would not be able to lure Anita out.

"I'm coming out," Anita said. "Do you have any plans?"

Hermione took out a spicy stick and put it in her mouth. She didn't think the spicy stick was delicious, but it was amazing that this kind of snack couldn't be stopped after eating it. "Have you bought a dress yet?"

"What dress?" Anita asked.

"The dress for the ball." Hermione said, "Didn't Professor Snape tell you? The Triwizard Tournament will be held at Hogwarts next semester, and the Yule Ball is a traditional program of the Triwizard Tournament."

"Of course I know. But how did you know? The Triwizard Tournament is still kept secret."

"This..." Hermione stammered, "Don't ask."

"Professor Lupine told you." Anita guessed, "By the way, can you give this to Professor Lupine for me? You know my father doesn't like Professor Lupine, and I can't send him things."

"What's this?" Hermione took a glass bottle from Anita.

"Wolfwolf potion. It's not easy to buy in the market. I boiled Professor Lu Ping's wolfsbane potion this semester, and I still have a lot left. Anyway, I don't know other werewolves, so it's useless to keep it. "

At the mention of werewolves, both of them fell silent for a moment.Professor Lupine did not escape the curse of Professor Defense Against the Dark Arts in the end.Towards the end of term, his fluffy little secret was reported by the Daily Prophet as a weapon against Dumbledore.The parents who knew that a werewolf had become a professor were very angry. Letters of protest flooded the principal's office like snowflakes, and Lupine could only resign.

"Let's go buy a dress." Anita changed the subject, "You must dress up beautifully for the prom."

Hermione put away the wolfsbane potion, and joked, "Oh~ women are the ones who please themselves, right?"

"Yeah." Anita admitted very frankly, "What about you? What lucky boy do you want to impress."

Hermione's face flushed slightly, "What's the matter with those annoying boys? Can't I just dress up for myself?"

"All right, all right, you say yes." Anita said, her tone sounded perfunctory.

Anita and Hermione walked downstairs laughing and noisily. Just as they were about to go out, they saw Dr. Granger walking in with a man.Hermione asked in surprise, "Dad, why did you come back so early today?"

"Hermione, this is Mr. Mycroft Holmes. He has something to do with you," said Dr. Granger.

Mycroft held out his hand to Hermione, "Nice to meet you. I've heard that Dr. Granger has a very smart daughter."

Hermione shook Mycroft's hand and said, "Thank you. Nice to meet you too."

"Who is this lady?" Mycroft turned to Anita, he squinted his eyes, "Do you have a sister?"

"No." Anita smiled slyly. "It's a pleasure to see you again, Mr. Holmes."

Mycroft opened his eyes slightly, which was already a rare gaffe on him.

"Anita Prince? I have to say, the magic is amazing." Mycroft admired.

"Didn't Sherlock laugh at you about it at Christmas?" Anita teased.

"Obviously my brother has more important things to do than explain his poor brother's puzzles." Mycroft said, "But compared to the magic that can make people age, Miss Prince is a little more magical, not every 12 A girl of seventeen or eighteen can pretend to be a girl of seventeen or eighteen without any flaws. Isn't that right, Miss Prince?"

"It's my talent," Anita brazenly said. "Worthy of an Oscar?"

"It's worth a dozen Oscars," says Mycroft.

"You two know each other?" asked Dr. Granger, confused by the conversation between Anita and Mycroft.

"We met once. Speaking of which, Miss Prince still owes me a fruit-flavored tooth potion," Mycroft said.

Because her father doesn't allow her to contact any dangerous Sherlock Holmes, but of course Anita can't say this reason, she smiled and said, "I thought you would prefer Dr. Granger to solve your dental problems?"

In front of Dr. Granger, Mycroft certainly couldn't admit that he hated going to the dentist. He said with some toothache, "Of course, Dr. Granger is the best dentist in England."

"Mycroft, you don't need to take care of my feelings." Dr. Granger laughed, "You were supposed to come to me for a dental check-up a month ago, but you didn't come here until today, not for your sake." Teeth. I think I must be the last person you want to see in England."

"Well, I'll admit it, I'm afraid of the dentist," Mycroft said childishly.

Everyone laughed, the strangeness between the few people was much less, and the atmosphere relaxed.Mycroft took the opportunity to make his own request, "It's like this, I work as a small employee in the British government, and I happen to have some contact with wizards..."

Anita secretly rolled her eyes.Mycroft looked at Anita keenly, but he didn't stop talking, "...We found something that may be related to wizards this time, and I would like to ask Miss Granger to help identify it."

Dr. Granger frowned. "Wizards seem to have a Ministry of Magic? They handle these things, right?"

"That's right. We also tried to contact the Ministry of Magic, but you know," Mycroft said with some embarrassment, "wizards are not very friendly to ordinary people like us."

Dr. Granger nodded sympathetically, but still had some concerns, "There's no danger, is there?"

Anita continued to roll her eyes, McCoff's acting was worth a dozen Oscars.

"No." Mycroft said, "Just to identify whether it is related to wizards, I will ensure Miss Granger's safety."

Doctor Granger nodded and asked Hermione, "Hermione, do you want to go?"

Hermione frowned, "But I can't use magic during the summer vacation."

"It's okay, just identify it, no magic is needed." Mycroft said.

"Fine." Hermione agreed.

"Wait. I'll go too," Anita interrupted, trusting that Mycroft would keep Hermione safe, but she wasn't at all convinced that the trip would be safe.Wouldn't it be dangerous to require the big boss of MI6 to appear in person?

"Mr. Holmes wouldn't mind sending us to the mall when things were over?" asked Anita.

"Of course I don't mind."

Anita and Hermione boarded the car with Mycroft after saying goodbye to Dr. Granger.

"I'm a little nervous." Hermione whispered in Anita's ear after the car started.

Anita silently used a "shut ear plug to listen". What she didn't notice was that there was an imperceptible white light flashing on a cross on McCoff's bracelet, and the corner of McCoff's mouth twitched slightly.

Anita said to Hermione, "Be careful. According to his brother, Mycroft Holmes is the British government. This matter is definitely not as simple as he said."

Hermione showed a shocked expression, and then tried to adjust her facial expression back to a relaxed one, but Mycroft had already seen her expression in full view.

"But don't worry too much, I brought Hai Erbo." Anita rolled up her sleeves, and McCoff noticed that Anita was wearing a green snake-shaped bracelet.

Hermione immediately smiled relaxedly, and she reached out to touch Hai Erbo's head.

Mycroft's pupils shrank slightly. He saw that the bracelet moved, and the snake's head part rubbed against Hermione's hand. Mycroft was sure that this was not his illusion.

The car parked on the side of a government building, and after waiting for a while, several men in suits hurried past the car and walked into the building.

"See that guy in the blue shirt?" Mycroft asked, pointing to one of the men. "Is there any sign of magic on him?"

Hermione frowned, "Didn't it mean something related to wizards?" Hermione emphasized the word "thing".

"Yeah." Mycroft said without changing his face.

Hermione looked out of the car window speechlessly. At this moment, the man in the blue shirt was hit by a passerby, and the two had an argument.After observing for a while, Hermione and Anita exchanged glances, and both shook their heads at the same time. This man looked very normal.

"You suspect that this man is controlled by a wizard?" Anita asked.

Mycroft nodded. "I can't see any other reason why he might change his position completely, and he's not the only one acting out of the ordinary."

Anita used another "shut your ears and listen", and she said to Hermione calmly, "I know of only one spell that can control a person."

"The Imperius Curse." The two said at the same time.

"And for the caster to behave so normally, the caster has to be not far from here," Hermione said.

Anita looked around, but found no suspicious person, "He must be hiding, using spells like the Disillusionment Charm."

"Can you counter-curse the Disillusionment Curse?" Hermione asked.

"I can."

"But we can't use magic."

"We can." Anita blinked, and she took out a silver ring from her pocket and handed it to Hermione, "put it on the wand, a small prop developed by Draco that can shield traces, but this is a consumption products, one can last about a day."

"The question is whether we should catch that person." Anita was a little worried, "No matter which faction in the wizarding world—most likely the Death Eaters—was involved in the Muggle government, it would be very troublesome. It will destroy the relationship between Muggles and wizards. This kind of thing is not suitable for the two of us to deal with, right? Shall we inform Professor Dumbledore first?"

"If you don't want to damage the relationship between wizards and ordinary people, it's better to arrest that person." Mycroft, who had been silent all this time, said suddenly, "Before he really does anything irreparable. These One is about to attend a very important meeting."

Anita stared at McCoff with wide eyes, and asked in disbelief, "How did you hear the two of us talking?"
