Homecoming from Hogwarts

Chapter 404 Another Competition ([-])

Amosta, who was in Paris, was facing troubles against Hogwarts at the reception, and Hogwarts was newly appointed as a physical education class in name, but in fact it was a military training class. Hermione Granger had been anxious all day.

As the gloomy sky darkened, her state became more and more hysterical.

After dinner, in the noisy common room, the small groups participating in this class had gathered one after another. Hermione paced back and forth by the fireplace, anticipating what might happen later in her mind.Her anxious appearance made Neville, who was already terrified, even more at a loss.

"Don't be too nervous, Hermione—"

Hermione and Neville were appointed as teaching assistants by Professor Brian, which is definitely a good thing for Gryffindor, and Harry is also happy about it,

"If something happens, we're not going to stand by."

"You don't understand, Harry!"

Hermione muttered distraughtly,

"Something will definitely happen, right? I must be fully prepared to live up to Professor Brian's trust. If Professor Brian comes back, when he sees that the physical education class he attaches great importance to has been disbanded, I will definitely be punished." He was kicked out of Hogwarts!"

Hermione's assumption made Neville even more frightened, and he flicked his eyes helplessly, hoping that someone could give a reasonable suggestion.

"But, didn't Professor Brian give you the right?"

Ron grabbed a potato pie and looked at Hermione's frantic look with relish,
"If I were you, if those stinky snakes in Slytherin dared to make trouble, you could arrange for them to clean the bathrooms of the whole castle. I think you can talk to Percy, he has a book "How is the prefect?" Gaining Powers, Percy knew he had been clinging to that book during the summer vacation when he was appointed Prefect, and it was said that there were a thousand legal reasons for confinement of young wizards in it."

Neville's eyes lit up, hesitant to speak, but Hermione stopped her with a stern tone,
"We cannot abuse our power, Neville!"

"If you're really worried about classroom discipline, Hermione—" Harry hesitated, and then offered a much more reliable suggestion, "I can ask Sirius, I think, if he shows up in the classroom, Sirius Leitlin's group will definitely not dare to make trouble for you."

This method is really good, even Hermione was quite moved, but after thinking for a while, Hermione still shook her head slightly,

"Professor Bryan obviously wants us to get exercise, so this is our own business. If we ask Sirius for help, what's the point?"

"That little bastard Malfoy wouldn't be so moral, little fool."

The twins came bouncing up the spiral staircase, Fred said in a brisk tone.

"No matter what, we need to rely on ourselves." The twinkle in Hermione's eyes gradually became firmer.

Harry and Ron looked at each other and shrugged their shoulders helplessly. They both knew Hermione very well. She had a bright mind, but sometimes she liked to go to a dead end. Moreover, once she made a decision on something, ten fire dragons They can't be pulled back.

It was past seven o'clock in the evening, and a group of people in Gryffindor were ready to go. Looking at Hermione, who still seemed unable to shake off her nervousness, Ron threw the rest of the potato pie into his mouth and stood up as well. Come,

"I can call on Seamus and Dean. If that little bastard Malfoy dares to make trouble for you, just give us a signal, and we'll rush in and beat him up hard."

"Oh--"

Hermione raised her eyebrows, she looked at Ron, a smile flashed across her mouth, but in the end she took a deep breath and said sternly
"Thank you, Ron, but I don't think that's going to work."

"Don't worry, we will watch her for you!"

After Fred and George rubbed Ron's hair vigorously, they crossed their shoulders and left, but Harry didn't have time to say hello to Ron, he was busy cheering up Neville, after all, compared to Hermione However, the pressure that Neville has to bear in the position of teaching assistant is obviously a bit greater.

Ron stood on the sofa by the fireplace and watched the group of people leave the common room. For some reason, he suddenly felt uncomfortable.

"Hey, Ron, want to come to Gobstone?"

Dean waved to him from a few seats away.

"All right--"

Ron shook his head, and glanced aside the strange feeling in his heart. He walked around the sofa blocking the way and sat opposite Dean,
"Have you finished the dissertation assigned by Professor Sprout, Dean?"

"No--" Dean hung his head and was busy working on the props, he replied casually, "However, there are still a few days, isn't it?"

"Oh, of course!"

Ron shook his head, his expression gradually calmed down.

Hermione and the others met Luna on the way to that special classroom. She was climbing the stairs alone, but she couldn't find any anxiety or loneliness on her face.

"Good evening, Luna—"

Hermione glanced at the pocket behind Luna's buttocks. She rolled the parchment that Professor Brian gave her, which is said to allow people to see the harasser and the horned snoring beast, and stuck it behind her buttocks.
"How are you feeling?" Hermione asked tentatively.

"very good."

Luna said cheerfully, but there was a strange emotion in her pair of silver eyes, which was very contagious, and even Hermione's frown did not frown after seeing such a gaze. Consciously relieved,
"I can see them more clearly now, which means, maybe one day I can escape their harassment. Oh, my dad must be amazed at the depth of Professor Blaine's research on them. Today I was thinking, isn't it To write and tell my papa these ways—"

No one answered Luna's words, or rather, wanted to answer but didn't know how to answer.

Hermione glanced curiously at the roll of parchment stuck behind Luna's buttocks, and after thinking about it, she cautiously suggested,

"Well, you mean, you want to show Professor Blaine, um, the research manuscript on harassment to your father. Well, I think it's best to ask Professor Blaine's permission first."

After a few simple conversations, the group of Gryffindors had arrived at the physical education classroom.

The little wizards of Hufflepuff have almost arrived, and the only three little witches left in Ravenclaw have also arrived. Harry is a little surprised why they don't invite Luna to join them. However, when he saw Qiu Zhang surrounded by When he met Cedric, who was almost as thin as him but taller than him, Harry's mood became bad again for no reason, so he didn't have the heart to fight for Luna.

Slytherin also came to some people. After they glanced coldly at the Gryffindor group, they tacitly withdrew their gazes and continued their topic.

During this time, Professor Brian often didn't show up all day long, and even when he was eating, he couldn't be seen at the staff table. Therefore, the young wizards of the other three colleges didn't know the news of his going out.

In the next 10 minutes, the doors of the classroom opened and closed, and the staff gradually filled up. Malfoy and Parkinson also entered the classroom during this period. They were all waiting for Professor Brian, who was used to appearing at the last moment.

Harry was eavesdropping on Cedric chatting with the three Ravenclaw girls. As the time for the class approached, his attention returned to Hermione and Neville. Neville seemed to be hopeless, and he Her body was as stiff as a piece of wood, and Hermione, she was adjusting her mood through rapid breathing and noticed Harry's worried eyes, Hermione tried to give him a reassuring look.

"Cough cough!"

At 59:[-], Hermione suddenly coughed heavily, which was a signal from the prior agreement, and the little wizards of Gryffindor immediately started to organize the team, while the little wizards of the other three colleges looked at it for no reason. watching this scene.

Neville also wanted to return to his position, but Hermione held him back.

Trembling and sweating profusely, Neville immediately made the little wizards in the room, whose observation skills had been tempered, realize that something might happen.

Some people are curious, some are cold-eyed.

"Cough cough!"

Hermione coughed heavily again, and gave Luna a wink at Luna who was standing beside her.

"how?"

pansy parkinson mocking

"Is your throat smothered with frog brains, Granger!"

There was a burst of laughter in the classroom immediately, most of the laughter came from Slytherin, and some Hufflepuff classmates thought that Parkinson had told a good joke.

"Actually!"

At this moment, Hermione felt the uneasiness in her heart disappear. Instead of looking at Pansy Parkinson, she glanced across the classroom and said loudly

"Professor Bryan has left Hogwarts this morning to handle business. In order not to affect the progress of this class, before leaving, he appointed me, Neville Longbottom and Luna Lovegood as The teaching assistant for the course, on his days away from school, oversees the daily practice of the course. Now”

Hermione took a deep breath, she didn't care about what the Slytherin gang said to her, and continued,

"I hope you will organize your team as soon as possible and start today's training!"
