Daily Life at Hogwarts Chapter 628: Ginny’s concerns
Chapter 629 Ginny's Worries
"Harry, why didn't you go to Defence Against the Dark Arts class this afternoon?"
Harry hurried into the hall and found his friend who was dining, Hermione put down her knife and fork and looked up at him with a stern look.
"Wait..." Harry took a deep breath, and after calming down, he lowered his voice and said, "Don't talk about this, I have more important things to tell you."
"What's the matter?"
Ron's questioning was stopped by Hermione's eyes.
"Follow me."
Harry motioned for Hermione and Ron to find a place with no one, there were some things that weren't appropriate to say here.
Both Ron and Hermione noticed the gesture in Harry's eyes, and obviously knew what Harry might have found, so they stopped talking nonsense, threw down their half-eaten dinner, and left the hall with Harry.
"Harry, tomorrow morning..."
When Wood saw Harry, he came towards him and was about to explain to him about the early training, but was interrupted by Harry.
"Wood, I'll talk about it later!"
Harry heard Wood calling him, so he casually said something, and hurriedly left the hall with Hermione and Ron.
"What's wrong with him?"
Wood scratched his head, looked at the back of Harry hurriedly leaving, and turned his head to ask Fred, who was stuffing grilled sausages into his mouth.
"Maybe there is something urgent, what are you doing with him?" Fred swallowed the food in his mouth and asked casually.
"Come and let him know that he has a morning practice tomorrow morning." Wood was also saying this to Fred and George.
"Why do you have to put Quidditch training in the morning?"
Both Fred and George couldn't help frowning. If they were training in the morning and they had to get out of the comfort of their bed early in the morning, it would be an ordeal.
Albert didn't care about the twins' complaints, and it wasn't him who needed to go to the morning exercise anyway.
There is no doubt that my arrangement has worked.
He looked away from the backs of the three of them, and was in a good mood.
Harry Potter apparently had a smooth encounter with Tom Riddle, and learned from him the "truth" that the Chamber of Secrets was opened fifty years ago.
My plan turned out to be an unexpected success, and Albert couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. The next step is...
He glanced inadvertently at Ginny Weasley not far away, pale, believing that Tom's diary would soon be back in her hands.
If things go well, it won't be long before Tom and the Basilisk will be on the road together.
"You guys remember to help me tell Harry about this later." Wood ignored Fred and George's resentful eyes, waved and turned away.
"Otherwise, I'll go and tell Harry!" Ginny stood up in a hurry, ignoring the food on the plate, made an excuse for herself, and left in a hurry.
Few people noticed the look on Ginny Weasley's face, except for Albert, who had been surreptitiously following her from the start.
At this moment, Harry, Ron, and Hermione had passed through the hall and walked to a remote flower bed outside the courtyard. Seeing that there was no one around, Harry told the two of the information he had obtained from Riddle's diary. partner.
Hermione and Ron looked surprised after hearing Harry recount what he had seen and heard in Riddle's memory.
Ron was surprised that Riddle's diary contained such a secret.
"Riddle may have caught the wrong person." Hermione tightened the expression on her face, "Albert told me that the student who was expelled back then was just a scapegoat, and I'm sure he'd found out that Hagrid was The student who was caught and expelled fifty years ago was reluctant to tell me about it."
"You mean..." Harry was surprised, "Albert already knew about this?"
"Yeah, he already knew." Hermione admired Albert's abilities.
"Why does he think Hagrid is innocent?" Ron said quickly, noticing the glances from Harry and Hermione, "I mean he must have found some clue."
"He didn't say, he just said Hagrid was framed." Hermione thought for a while, then continued, "I can probably guess why he said Hagrid was framed, though."
"Why?"
Ron and Harry turned to Hermione in unison. If Hagrid was just framed, it would make Harry feel a lot better. Harry definitely didn't believe that Hagrid was the culprit in the attack.
"If Hagrid hadn't been framed, do you think Dumbledore would have kept him at school?"
Although reluctant to admit it, Hermione doesn't actually think Hagrid will be able to find the entrance to the Chamber of Secrets, and according to Albert, a Parseltongue may be required to open the Chamber of Secrets. Hagrid is obviously not Parseltongue, and more importantly, Hagrid doesn't look like Slytherin's heir.
If she was looking for a reason, Hermione could find a bunch of them, and it was not difficult for her to understand why Albert would insist that Hagrid was being slandered.
It's just that it's not appropriate to try to convince Harry with this, so she borrows Albert's original words.
In the wisdom of Professor Dumbledore, if Hagrid was the real culprit, would such a dangerous person remain in the school?
Obviously not.
If Hagrid had opened the Chamber of Secrets, he would have been thrown into Azkaban prison long ago!
I have to say that there are many benefits to communicating with Albert occasionally.
Hermione's mind has been further developed, far more flexible than Harry and Ron.
"But... who's framing Hagrid, Riddle?" Harry frowned.
"I don't know."
"Actually, I think Tom Riddle is a good possibility," Ron said jokingly. "That guy is a lot like Percy -- if putting the whole family in jail makes Percy Minister of Magic. , I bet he would have no hesitation in doing that."
"Ron, I think you're prejudiced against Percy." Hermione looked at Ron in surprise, as if she knew each other for the first time.
"No, he'd do that. Besides, I don't doubt that the whistleblower was a stranger like Hagrid, and besides, he won a gold medal, didn't he?" Ron continued: " If the prisoner who opened the Chamber of Secrets was me, Percy would definitely report me mercilessly and send me to Azkaban Prison."
Ron's bad attitude towards Percy caused Hermione to frown.
"Actually, I can probably understand why Riddle did this." Harry said suddenly, "If they close Hogwarts, Riddle will be going back to a Muggle orphanage, and I can understand his desire to stay here."
After all, Harry didn't want to go back to the Dursleys either, so he could understand Riddle's thinking.
"Someone came over."
Hermione noticed that someone seemed to be sneaking towards this direction, and hurriedly warned.
"Ginny, what are you doing there?" Ron looked at his sister in surprise.
"That..." Ginny said hesitantly, turning pale, "Wood said...tomorrow morning...training, so I'll come..."
She ran away quickly.
"What is she talking about?" Harry looked at Ron in confusion.
"Probably came to tell you that the Quidditch team will have morning practice tomorrow." Hermione couldn't help raising her hand to support her head, thinking that Harry might be slow in some aspects.
Of course, it may be because of age.
"Should we ask Hagrid about these things?" Harry looked at Ginny's back as she hurried away ~IndoMTL.com~ for advice from two friends.
He thought maybe Hagrid could give them some useful information.
No way, the clue is broken again.
"Maybe, we should talk to Albert, I think he might have more clues." Hermione felt it was more reliable to go to Albert than to ask Hagrid.
"Forget it!" said Harry after a second thought. "Maybe, the attackers have washed their hands for good."
After all, Harry has never heard the Snake Whisper again, and it has been a long time since there has been an attack, and it would not be unacceptable if it ended like this.
In addition, Professor Sprout told everyone a while ago that the mandrakes are about to mature, and when the mandrakes are matured and formulated into a powerful restorative agent, the hapless Colin in the ward can come back to life. At that time, everyone knew that there was an ugly basilisk hidden in the school, and Harry believed that Dumbledore would definitely try his best to solve the problem of the basilisk, and he didn't need to worry about it at all.
