Ravenclaw's Sapphire

"I'm a little concerned." Zooey read Hagrid's report from beginning to end again, "If our professor of protection of magical creatures is not really a fool who can talk about such secrets, then Where did Rita get the news? Have you ever seen her haunt the school?"

Luna thought about it carefully: "She appeared in the first event, probably because she was invited to watch the competition. But I have never seen her before." Zooey frowned. "It's impossible for her to come in casually. You must know that Hogwarts is not a star show. This is a school with many restrictions and restrictions. If the Floo network wants to connect permanently or temporarily connect to a new line, you must Just report to the principal first."

"And the piece of rubbish about the prom—" Zooey just wanted to turn to that page, when she remembered that she had burned that page of the newspaper just now to vent her anger, "You should still have the impression of those pictures .How did she capture it? She wasn’t at the prom! And those few pictures came close to sticking to our faces.”

"Invisibility cloak? Or the disillusionment spell?" Zooey thought for a while and denied the guess, "It's not realistic, unless she can pass through other people like a ghost. There are really many people at the ball, and they are still dancing , I can't think of how she can squat in the crowd without being noticed..."

"There are not people everywhere." Luna said without hesitation, and then raised her hand and waved her head when Zooey looked over suspiciously, "She can fly in the sky on a broom, and she wears an invisibility mask." or hang yourself from the dome with a rope, and fall down like a spider... What's wrong? Did I make a mistake again?" She found Zoe looking at her with extremely complicated eyes, scratching her head in confusion. scratched his hair.

"No, I just think you're a genius, Luna! You're always finding details that other people don't notice, or affirming fanciful possibilities that other people don't even think about, and that's probably what makes the truth come to visit. The first step." Luna blinked sheepishly. "I was thinking wildly, and there is no evidence that she did."

"But now we have no clue, and what you said may even be a blind spot in the eyes of others, it's great... If Rita didn't stay on the ground all the time, how did she do it?" Luna blushed All of a sudden, he showed a somewhat silly smile unconsciously.

"I think I need to get to know this woman. I really don't get much information from books, right?" Zooey's mood became much better again. "What do you want to do?" Luna asked curiously.

"I have to write a letter to Mr. Lucius first, and then go to investigate some things." Zooey quickly finished her breakfast, greeted Luna and ran away.

Time slips away inadvertently. Many professors agree on one thing. For the upcoming fifth grade and OWLs exams, even during the Triwizard Tournament, they still need to study hard.Being immersed in such a monotonous and fast-paced day is not entirely painful. Zoe likes the feeling that the gaps in knowledge are filled, and the rich schedule keeps her from having nothing to do.

Fortunately, the once obvious gap between Hermione and her has gradually disappeared. Although it is somewhat awkward, now they can sit together and study face to face again, instead of just caring about each other's existence. A look of extreme embarrassment.They could still sit together and denounce Rita Skeeter, an annoying guy. Zooey told Hermione that she was already investigating her, and Lucius was very efficient, probably because he had hired a few people to dig Professionals of this past history do it.

"That disgusting bastard, she almost ruined Hagrid's place! Who cares if Hagrid is a half-giant? As long as they've all been with him, who really thinks he's going to be a Bloodthirsty, ferocious giants? Unless these people have no brains and are unwilling to use their own brains to think hard!" Hermione was furious when she said this, and Hagrid had once suspended teaching because some people questioned him all day long. Hiding in his hut and unwilling to go out.It took some work for Dumbledore to get the big man back on duty during the period taught by the substitute professor.

Although Hermione said so, giants are indeed not a friendly race, and the grievances between them and humans can also be traced back to many centuries ago.Giants are cruel and rude by nature, but they don't have bright minds.They are born fighters, both male and female.And they are also warlike, not only maintaining a brave fighting spirit against other races, they also kill each other.In the past, there were only a few cases where giants killed or cannibalized people, but since the rise of Voldemort, he has persuaded many giants to join him because he can bring them a feast of blood and flesh.

The giants slaughtered wizards and Muggles, creating a lot of sorrow, pain, fear and despair, but although they were very powerful, they were very few in number, and most of them died under the wands of Aurors and rebels. I took advantage of the chaos and fled, not knowing where to hide.There may indeed be giants in this world who are far away from the wizarding society and hidden deep in the mountains, but their brutal reputation has become an existence that makes human beings turn pale.

"I will find out her reasons and let her know the price she needs to pay for talking nonsense." Zoe told her, and felt helpless for her lonely past.It's not that the Malfoy family didn't give her the opportunity to step into the social arena. On the contrary, they very much hope that Zoe can stand in front of others in this way and show her friendly or ordinary side.But Zooey refused every time because of her resistance.At this time, he had to use this relatively insidious method to catch Rita's flaws.

She has money, but no connections.She can't bother Lucius with everything, even if the latter doesn't mind. "Let me help too." Hermione also disliked Rita's reporting style, not to mention Harry in the front and Hagrid in the back, all of them were hurt by these serious nonsense.

"You can ask Professor Hagrid for me, and ask him if he felt anything unusual or wrong that day - I didn't take his courses, and I don't have a chance to meet him." Zooey said here, revealing A look of hesitation.

"What's the matter?" Hermione leaned over naturally at first, but felt embarrassed thinking of what Zoe had confided to her some time ago, and abruptly stopped when there were still a few inches left.

"Is Potter's face alright?" Zooey pointed to her own face. She had seen some marks on Potter's face for a long time. He didn't go to Madam Pomfrey, but simply dealt with it himself. "I owe him a favor."

"Uh, that..." Hermione wanted to laugh, but she still controlled herself kindly, "It's nothing serious, I didn't expect Viktor to hit him suddenly..." Hermione noticed that Zooey picked She raised her eyebrows and said helplessly, "It's impossible for me to alienate him suddenly, I regard him as a friend."

"It's not fair, Hermione." Zoe said seriously, "In order to save you, I have already become what Rita called a 'dissatisfied little lover', maybe there will be more exaggerated stories in the future... ...can't you talk less about him in front of me and call him Krum, 'hot girlfriend'?"

"Could you be any more worthless?" Hermione gave her a contemptuous look, "This title really makes me get goosebumps..." She rubbed her arms in distaste, recalling those false reports again, annoyed Frown.

"Want to go to Hogsmeade together next time? We haven't had a good time this semester." Zoe asked expectantly.

"The three of you together?" Hermione raised her eyebrows pretending to be serious. "If you don't want it, I'll tell Luna to go out with her next time when I get back." Zooey raised her hands in a flash, with a flattering smile on her face, which made Hermione laugh out loud.

"I'm just kidding, I like Luna very much too." Hermione sighed, "I really don't want to think about those stupid things at that time, I should find a chance to apologize to Luna. No matter what conflicts we have, Or if there is some misunderstanding, I shouldn't blame her. I really hope she can accept my apology."

"Then you can treat her to a snack, the one she has always wanted to visit." Zooey said, "You can also treat me to it, after all, you have hurt my fragile heart." Hermione wanted to be ruthless. Knocked her on the head hard, but Zooey grabbed her hand.

"I'm afraid this will be a dream I had." Zoe smiled wryly, even though the temperature in her hand was not false, she would feel uneasy because it went too smoothly.

"I'm sorry, Zoe. I was so stupid before." Hermione hugged her pitifully, "My self-righteousness not only hurt you, but also punished myself." She looked into Zoe's eyes and said seriously, " This is by no means a dream, but a reality. I like you, Zoe, more than I can imagine."
