Daily Life at Hogwarts Chapter 937: Wicked people still need to be grinded by wicked people
Chapter 939 The villain still needs to be tortured by the villain
As soon as Hermione sat down again, Ron, who was reading the "Defense Guide", put down the magazine, looked up and asked, "Hermione, what are you going to do with Anderson?"
"Give him this month's manuscript to review." Hermione lowered her voice very low.
"What manuscript." Harry asked curiously.
"The story behind the "Defense Guide"." After Hermione finished speaking, the expression on her face became a little unnatural.
"You actually wrote that story?"
Ron was so surprised that he almost turned to the end of the "Defense Guide" in his hand and pointed to that story to ask Hermione.
"Don't go around talking nonsense." Hermione glared at Harry and Ron fiercely, trying to shut them up.
“I remember that the article was not signed by you.”
Harry naturally read that article. He would carefully read the "Defense Guide" every month. The magazine run by Sirius was indeed of a high standard, and the knowledge about Defense Against the Dark Arts in it would always benefit him a lot.
"By the way, please read these letters from readers first." Hermione took out a bunch of letters from her robe pocket and handed them to Harry and Ron.
"Why don't you read it yourself?" Harry picked up a letter and asked suspiciously.
"If the content of the letter is bad, I won't read it, so as not to be annoyed." Hermione signaled them to read the content of the letter first, "If the letter from the reader is okay, show it to me."
Ron and Harry looked at each other, smiled and opened the envelope in their hands, pulled out the letter paper from inside, and began to read the contents on it.
"I think it's wise of you to do that, many readers are not kind."
After a while, Ron stuffed the letter back again, shrugged and said to Hermione: "This guy is not very friendly. I really don't know why he sent you a letter. Is it to disgust you?"
"Maybe, my side is asking if you can get a house-elf." Harry put the envelope down, picked up another letter and opened it again.
A few minutes later, Harry and Ron read all the letters Hermione received from readers. As Albert expected, the contents of the letters were various, but the contents were not satisfactory.
Hermione couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. She thought that the novel would allow her to gain a group of supporters, but as Albert said, the reality is often cruel, and most of the guys who are willing to take the time to reply to her are too free.
"I think you're right that you didn't use your real name, at least they can't send you the letter directly." After reading the letter from the reader, Ron suddenly felt that Hermione's approach was quite wise.
At this moment, an owl flew towards this side and threw a red envelope in front of Hermione.
"Oh, **** it!"
Hermione's eyes fell on the red envelope on the table, and her expression became ugly. This was the third Howler letter she received this month.
"What to do?"
Ron looked at the roaring letter that had started to smoke, and looked at Hermione uneasily: "Do you want to open it? If you don't open it, the situation may get worse."
"I must make that woman pay the price!" Hermione's eyes were so cold that neither Harry nor Ron dared to look directly at them.
"How about asking Albert to see if he has any good ideas."
Harry also hates these roaring letters. Once these letters explode in the auditorium, even those who don't read "Wizard Weekly" will know the so-called love triangle between Harry, Krum and Hermione.
Thanks to the previous two Howler letters, the entire Hogwarts students probably know about this by now.
Harry felt that the wizards who would send Hermione the Howler letter were a bunch of malicious bastards.
Those guys did it on purpose, otherwise there would be no one sending yelling letters to the school. Isn't this intentionally adding salt to the wound?
Although this incident was false, it still made Harry very angry. He has been explaining this incident to others recently.
Without waiting for Hermione's answer, Harry took the letter that was smoking from all corners to find Albert.
Fortunately, Albert was eating in the hall, otherwise the roaring letter would not have lasted until then.
Sometimes, Harry felt that Hermione's insistence was meaningless, and he felt that Albert should have a way to keep Hermione from being harassed by these envelopes.
“Who sent you the roar letter?”
Lee Jordan looked at the smoking envelope with interest.
"Someone sent it to Hermione." Harry explained helplessly.
"Hermione has received this often recently?" Fred asked curiously, "What are you doing with it?"
Harry looked at Albert who was eating, and asked, "Is there any way, Hermione has often received malicious letters recently."
"Oh, you can use a shielding spell on yourself." Albert glanced at Hermione and Ron who were walking towards this side, and slowly took out a handkerchief to wipe the corners of his mouth and said, "If the shielding spell is strong enough, you can Easily block owl mail."
"Then...do you have a way to deal with this letter!" Harry breathed a sigh of relief, he felt that it was not a solution for Hermione to receive shouting letters every two days, which made them mentally weak.
"I can try it, but I haven't tried this thing yet." Albert took out his wand from his pocket, and pointed at the roaring letter in Harry's hand that was about to explode. floating in mid-air.
Using the Transfiguration Charm is a good choice, but he is afraid that if he uses the Shout Letter, it will explode immediately.
After all, the roaring letter does not want people to reject it, so it should have been considered.
"What are you going to do?"
Fred and George were very curious about how Albert planned to block the shouting letters.
"It may not be easy to force it to stop, but you can try physical isolation."
As he spoke, a water balloon instantly enveloped the entire roaring letter, but the letter was still burning in the water.
"Is this really okay?" Lee Jordan felt that it was unreliable to do so.
"It shouldn't be a problem. The essence of roaring letters is to amplify the sound. As long as the sound is isolated, the roaring letters should be blocked."
Ebert touched the water polo with his magic wand, and a layer of foam appeared on the surface of the water polo, which was then swallowed by another larger water polo.
Finally, a sandwich water polo was formed in the eyes of everyone.
If a vacuum environment can be created, there may be no problem, but Albert can't get it out, so he can only put the letter in the water to see if he can isolate the sound.
After the envelope in the water polo burned out, the water polo exploded suddenly, and the voice inside also came out from the water, but it was no longer as loud as the roaring letter, but became indistinct, and no one could hear it Find out what it's shouting about.
"It's incredible, I didn't expect to be able to do this." George felt that he had gained knowledge again, and Albert could always bring them unexpected surprises.
"The principle of the roaring letter should be to amplify the sound, as long as the sound is isolated, well, maybe, you can try to use the principle of the roaring letter to develop a similar sound bomb." Albert felt that the roaring letter's approach It's very interesting to make "baubles" that can be used to attract people's attention, and it is sure to surprise people.
"Thank you Albert, can you take the time to teach me the shielding spell?" While expressing her gratitude to Albert, Hermione also did not forget to ask him about the shielding spell.
"Oh, of course no problem." Albert waved his wand, making the water polo disappear out of thin air, "If you don't have any letters you want to receive, I can use it on you now to avoid you Received similar letters."
"Oh, of course not."
"That's good." Alberto helped Hermione cast a shielding spell, and reminded: "The effect of the shielding spell will last for about three days. As for this spell, I will teach you another day when I have time."
"That guy is really powerful." Ron sighed with emotion in a low voice.
After several people returned to their original seats, Hermione suddenly shouted viciously, "I must make that woman pay the price!"
"It's going to die down," Harry said to Hermione, "as long as we ignore it...people are getting tired of—"
"She was originally forbidden to enter the venue, how could she overhear a private conversation!" Hermione said angrily.
"Perhaps, Rita Skeeter uses the Invisibility Cloak?" Harry had one himself and knew how well it worked. He wouldn't be surprised if the woman used the Invisibility Cloak to sneak into Hogwarts.
"It's not an invisibility cloak. I asked Professor Moody that he didn't see Rita Skeeter at the referee's table or somewhere by the lake during the second project." Hermione said through gritted teeth.
"Maybe, she secretly bugged you." Harry said tentatively.
"It's definitely not a bug." Hermione explained impatiently, "I said a long time ago that Hogwarts's magical magnetic field is too strong, and Muggle electrical appliances can't be used at all. I'm sure that woman They rely on magic to eavesdrop on others."
"Maybe Anderson knows something?" Ron reminded, "He, Fred, and George have been developing all kinds of weird magic things, and maybe they can really make what you call a bug."
"I think you can take the time to ask Albert, anyway, don't you want to learn shielding spells from him?" Harry suggested.
"You know, he knows almost everything."
"Perhaps, you can ask Anderson to help you with divination. You have a good relationship. I don't think that guy will ask you for money." Burt.
Although they don't want to admit it, they have begun to draw Albert closer to omniscience. Just like Dumbledore, Albert is also very reliable.
"I doubt that Albert has any agreement with Rita Skeeter. He probably won't help me deal with that woman." Hermione didn't want to embarrass Albert.
"Agreement?"
"What agreement?"
"I don't know, probably to prevent Rita Skeeter from randomly reporting news related to him. Didn't you find that there are almost no news related to Albert in the Daily Prophet?" Hermione reminded.
"It turns out that there was a behind-the-scenes transaction between them. No wonder Rita Skeeter didn't report the news about Anderson?" In Harry's opinion, Albert should be more famous than him, but there was no gossip news in the end. It's weird, now they finally know why.
"I'm even more curious, how did he shut up that woman." Ron whispered, "This is not an easy task."
"I don't know." Hermione shook her head and said
"That guy is really capable!" Harry said sourly.
If he was more than annoyed by Rita Skeeter's article, he was most annoyed by the readers who, like idiots, believed it to be true.
"This matter will be over soon. I don't think you need to fight Rita Skeeter to the death. That woman is very difficult to mess with." He didn't want Hermione to provoke that woman.
"I'll handle this myself!" Hermione glanced at Ron and said coldly: "I'm sure that guy's behavior is absolutely illegal, as long as I catch the handle, she can run away No more."
After Hermione finished her share of food, she got up and left directly.
"Grandmaid women are terrible!" Ron looked at Hermione's leaving back and whispered to Harry, "I warned her a long time ago not to provoke Rita Skeeter, but Hermione didn't Listen, the result will become like this.”
Harry and Ron were both relieved that Hermione hadn't asked Harry and Ron to help her with Rita Skeeter.
As Ron said, that woman offended a large group of people and made them gnash their teeth. However, she is still safe and sound. It is not easy to catch her.
In their opinion, without Albert's help, the probability of Hermione's success is almost zero.
"Why don't we ask Anderson directly."
Harry and Ron didn't find Albert, they had finished eating and left the hall.
When they returned to the common room, they found that Hermione was learning the shielding spell from Albert.
The two looked at each other, not disturbing them, but looked at Fred and George who didn't know what they were doing.
"What are you doing?"
Harry saw a red envelope, and the expression on his face froze instantly.
After George opened the envelope, a loud noise filled the entire common room, shaking off the dust from the ceiling: "Don't do it here, do you want to scare everyone to death?"
After the roar stopped, everyone in the common room looked over in unison.
"What the **** are you doing?"
"Ahem." Fred said awkwardly, "It was just an accident."
Brother Weasley ran away amidst people's glaring.
Albert looked at the twin brothers who had slipped away, stretched out his hand to comfort the furious Tom, then looked at Hermione and asked, "Are you going to send Rita Skeeter a howler letter?"
"No, I plan to teach that woman a lesson." Hermione said in a low voice, "I suspect she is an illegal Animagus."
Before Albert could speak, Hermione continued, "As you said, it's not easy to eavesdrop. Fred and George's stretchable ears have limited effects, and Hogwarts Ci is protected by magic, even if Rita Skeeter knows some magic, it is difficult to eavesdrop outside the school."
"Last year, the Sirius thing gave me inspiration why Rita Skeeter couldn't be an illegal Animagus, if her Animagus was unremarkable, it would be fine for Eavesdropping on other people's conversations, whether it's Hagrid's time or this time."
"It makes sense." Albert praised, "Your thinking is sharp, it shouldn't be difficult to catch that guy."
"Are you threatening her with this?" Hermione asked curiously ~IndoMTL.com~ Not counting, I told that woman, if she continues to report my news, I will find those wizards who hate her Write a letter and persuade them to pay for her on the black market together. "Albert said calmly.
"As you know, one thousand Galleons is enough to make those outlaws tempted." Albert said lightly.
"Are you going to find someone to kill her?" Hermione asked in disbelief.
"Of course not, I can send her to St. Mungo's Magic Injury Hospital." Albert said calmly, "If she doesn't compromise, she will compromise a few times."
Hermione was speechless.
"You don't have to be merciless when dealing with bad guys." Albert stroked Tom's hair and said, "You need to be strong enough to make her listen to you well, too weak will only make people think you are easy to bully, so She dared to wantonly report Harry Potter gossip. There is no doubt that the effect is very good, and that guy will never touch any reports related to me. "
"It's really effective." Hermione didn't think Albert's approach was too much. However, she will use her own methods to silence that woman.
