Hogwarts: What bad intentions could the little badger have?

"Let's go too," said Blake.

"Okay..." Hermione followed Black silently.

Black took Hermione around for a while and came to the greenhouse given to him by Professor Sprout.

This place has been lent to him by Professor Sprout.

He had never brought anyone here. Because the mutant plants he was going to cultivate were more dangerous than poisonous tentacles. So before they were fully grown, Blake had never brought anyone in. But now...

At this time, the greenhouse has changed.

The big table that was originally placed in the middle was gone, replaced by a small airtight tent.

Around the greenhouse, there are all kinds of vegetables and fruits planted. These fruits and vegetables are now full of fruits.

What surprised Hermione was that these fruits...or vegetable plants seemed to be much larger than ordinary fruits and vegetables!

"Please sit down.. ...Would you like some fruit? Um...I remember you liked strawberries."

After pulling a chair over for Hermione to sit down, Black shook his wand, and a strawberry almost as big as Black's fist flew over.

The strawberry fell steadily into Black's hand. He put the strawberry in Hermione's hand. Because she hadn't eaten dinner yet, Hermione was feeling a little hungry and thirsty.

She looked at the bright red strawberry in front of her and took a small bite carefully. The sweet and juicy flesh instantly improved Hermione's depressed mood.

"Did you and Cassandra and the others do this here together?" Hermione asked tentatively.

"Huh? No." Blake shook his head. "Why do you ask? In fact, you are the first guest I invited here."

"Oh..." Hermione responded softly, sounding relieved.

Blake picked a bunch of grapes and placed them on a makeshift table.

"I came to you because I want to ask you a question."

"You spent the whole afternoon...crying in the bathroom..."

Hermione bowed her head, but Black noticed that her face had turned red.

Blake then asked, "Is it because of what Ron said?"

"You...you heard it too?"

"Yes, I heard that too." Hermione was silent for a moment, then nodded.

Blake whispered, "Don't you think I'm your friend?"

Logically speaking, because of Black, Hermione was not completely without friends.

Even Cassandra, although we quarreled all the time, could still be considered friends.

It's a bit hard to understand why Hermione was so defeated by Ron's words that he had no friends.

So... the only explanation is... Hermione doesn't think Black is her friend.

"No! That's not the case... Of course you are my friend! The... best friend!" Hermione explained anxiously.

"Then why do you..."

"I...that's because I...you..." Hermione felt a little embarrassed to speak.

Ron's words were just a small spark, but they ignited the negative emotions that already existed in Hermione's heart.

Blake remembered that she had just asked him if he had built this greenhouse with Cassandra and the others.

Then he thought carefully about what Ron said, and suddenly he understood.

"Do you think that I'm often with Cassandra, Hannah, Penelope and the others, but I don't often look for you, so..."

"No... I... I mean... well, I do think so..." Hermione bit her lip, her face red as if it was about to bleed.

In fact, after class during the day, when she heard Ron say that she had no friends, she scoffed at first, because she knew she had friends!

But when Ron mentioned that Black was often surrounded by Cassandra, Hannah, Penelope and other seniors, and Hermione appeared the least often.

Hermione felt as if she had been hit in the vitals... and couldn't help but recall her recent experience.

It turned out to be just as Ron said. Blake seldom came to see him recently.

And Cassandra...

She had long noticed the beautiful bracelet on Cassandra's hand, the same color as the Blue Lady's feather.

　2.8 And the silent bird she always carries with her...these things must have been given by Blake.

Needless to say, Blake and Cassandra must have experienced some events together.

But she did not participate in the whole process...her heart began to waver.

Then she thought of what Ron said, that he rarely saw her around Black...and then her thoughts got stuck in a rut.

Does Blake really think I'm his friend? Or is this just my own wishful thinking? Then the more she thought about it, the more she felt that she was not Blake's friend.

In other words, she didn't actually have a single friend... and then her defense broke down...

Girls' thinking and imagination are always so wonderful. A simple look can make them think of many irrelevant things. Not to mention Ron's heart-piercing words. In addition, she is extremely unconfident in socializing...

"Hermione, this is a misunderstanding. It's not that I don't want to look for you... but... you go to the library to study after class. You don't have much time to hang out with me, right?" Black said helplessly.

Then Hermione was silent. It seemed... that was the case?

She loves learning and indeed goes to the library to read and study right after dinner… Books as thick as bricks are just a pastime for her.

If this continues, Ron and the others will rarely see her in the circle of friends around Blake. So, it seems that I have actually neglected Blake?

Thinking that it was actually her fault that caused the misunderstanding, and that she was jealous of Cassandra getting Black's gift, Hermione felt so ashamed that she wanted to crawl into the ground.

"Okay! Now that the misunderstanding has been resolved, and you've been so frightened today, then... I'll give you a gift!" Blake stood up and said happily.

"Eh? What...gift?"

Blake smiled, "Squat down, close your eyes, and open your mouth! I'll show you my gift right away!"

Hermione: ? .

Chapter 117: Blake's reflection! The Weasley twins' sudden change of style! Professor Babel's invitation!

Although I don't know what Blake wants to do.

But simple-minded Hermione did as she was told.

She squatted in front of Blake, then closed her eyes and opened her mouth.

Blake took out his wand.

Then he gently tapped Hermione's two front teeth.

next second.

Hermione's two big front teeth began to shrink slowly.

Only when it was almost done did he put away his wand.

"Okay!"

Hermione opened her eyes and looked at Black in confusion.

She just felt a little itchy in her mouth.

Then I heard Blake say okay.

She blushed and wanted to ask Blake where the gift was.

Blake pulled out a mirror and placed it in front of Hermione.

"You take a closer look?"

Hermione looked at herself in the mirror in confusion.

Then I was pleasantly surprised to find that the two big front teeth that I had always been worried about had actually shrunk!

And it’s shrunk to a very appropriate size!

Because those annoying big front teeth have become normal size.

As a result, Hermione looks even cuter than before.

This small change was enough to help Hermione, who originally felt a little inferior about her appearance, regain her confidence.

“I’ve actually always wanted to do this!”

"But my father never agreed."

"Ah...I don't think I told you before that my father is a dentist."

“He might think this is bad.”

“But I don’t think it’s a big deal.”

Hermione was so excited that she was almost incoherent.

……

"Ding! Extremely happy emotion detected."

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining a gold treasure chest."

The misunderstanding was cleared up and the front teeth were reduced in size.

With double joy, Hermione actually gave Black a golden treasure chest!

This was something Blake had not expected.

"Thank you...Blake."

"And...if you hadn't arrived in time, I might have..."

Hermione couldn't help feeling scared when she thought of the mountain troll just now.

She had read the book, and the mountain monsters would eat people...

If Blake hadn't come.

Then by the time the professors arrived, she might have been beaten to death by the troll and used as food.

As for Harry and Ron? What's the difference between them and me?

She felt that they would be beaten to death by the troll just like her.

So, she felt that Black really saved her life.

"And I was very moved by what you said to Snape."

"Don't let any of your friends get hurt..."

"Blake, I wanted to tell you the same thing."

Hermione said seriously: "As long as I am here, I will not allow you to be hurt in any way, whether verbally or physically!"

Black looked at Hermione who had a serious expression.

But I couldn't help feeling ashamed.

Those words against Snape...

Did he really do it?

He had been there a long time ago.

Does it count as harm if a friend is frightened?

If he did, he didn't want his friend to get hurt of any kind.

So…why didn’t he just take out the troll before it got into the bathroom?

There is only one reason.

That means he is considering his own plan!

That so-called plan that can achieve the greatest benefit for oneself!

According to his inference, the only way is to form an iron triangle.

Only by following the original plot can you gain more benefits!

But...is this really right?
