Chapter 376 Hermione: Rolf, you have made me sleepless all night
To make a Horcrux, two steps are required:
Kill and tear your own soul.
The whole process is extremely evil, and it will also affect the wizard's mental state, mind, and even... appearance.
Voldemort is a typical case!
Therefore, there is no doubt that the wizards who can make Horcruxes are all evil dark wizards.
And since the basilisk is a Horcrux and is still alive, it means that the maker is still alive.
One Voldemort is difficult enough to deal with, and a dark wizard who has made Horcruxes, who will suffer?
Similarly, the deal between Rove and Corvinus Gunter can only be forced to terminate, after all, there is... an insider!
After returning to his dormitory, Rove lay on the bed and thought for a long time before falling asleep. The next morning the alarm clock rang several times, but he didn't get up. Instead, he turned it off and went back to sleep comfortably. .
When it was almost time for class, he quickly got up. After washing up, he ate breakfast in the kitchen, and hurried to the classroom with Neville.
The first class of the new semester is History of Magic taught by Binns, and Hufflepuff and Gryffindor are in class together.
After arriving in the classroom, the two quickly found Hermione in the crowd, and walked towards her.
Hermione on weekdays has already taken out her textbooks and started to preview, but today she is uncharacteristically lying on the table to catch up on sleep.
After Rove sat down, she opened her eyes at the right time and stared at the boy with a death stare.
Rove looked back and was taken aback, only to see that Hermione had two dark circles under her eyes, and she looked extremely sleepy, as if she hadn't slept all night.
He lowered his voice and asked, "Hermione, did you go for a night swim last night?"
"Who went out at night?" Hermione snorted softly. She suppressed her drowsiness and rested her chin on the back of her hand and said, "Only you would do something that violated school rules."
"Then why do you look so sleepy?"
"Isn't it because of you?" Hermione raised her voice and said angrily, "I didn't sleep well yesterday!"
"..."
Hey, we can drink potions indiscriminately, but we can't talk nonsense, who tormented you last night?
Hermione's voice was not low, which attracted the attention of many students. The girl also realized the ambiguity in her words. She blushed and hurriedly explained:
"You only said half of what you said last night, which aroused my curiosity.
After I got back to the dormitory, I kept thinking about it. The more I thought about it, the more I couldn't fall asleep. I stayed up most of the night... Do you think it's your fault? ! "
Rove couldn't help laughing. Hermione's curiosity is too strong. Next time she bullies her, there will be a new way.
"Laughing... you're still laughing!" Seeing the young man gloating, Hermione said angrily, "Why don't you just put your mouth on your ears..."
"Then I can't cry, can I?" Rove put his arms around his sleeves, leaned against the back of the chair, and said with a faint smile:
"Don't get excited, I'll just tell you about Peter Pettigrew."
"Wait for you to say? Then I don't have to eat breakfast!" Hermione puffed up her cheeks and said, "I already asked Shirley this morning."
"By the way, I asked you to come early today last night, why did you arrive so late?"
"Sleeping." Rove shrugged and said, "I slept until after eight o'clock."
"..."
Thinking of getting up at six o'clock, and seeing Rove sitting there with a book full of energy, Hermione's eyes were full of resentment.
She reached out and lifted Crookshanks' two paws, and said:
"Crookshanks, bite him!"
Crookshanks, who was forced to open his business, was not fooled, but couldn't help but roll his eyes at his master.
My bite hurts, and I have to blame it!
You just have to bite it yourself... You can grasp the priorities! !
Soon the class bell rang, and Professor Binns walked in through the wall to start today's class.
Although Professor Binns is dead and turned into a ghost, he can still cast the most powerful area-of-effect magic.
It only took him 30 seconds to hypnotize the students to sleep. Even Dumbledore, who has rich teaching experience, can only sigh with such strength!
Sure enough, Hogwarts is still a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger.
But Professor Binns was quite self-absorbed. He shook his head, dragged his voice, and continued to talk about the history of magic in the Middle Ages.
This semester has finished talking about King Arthur's rule of Britain with the help of the famous wizard Merlin, and this will tell the story of the Big Four and Hogwarts.
"Not long after Ravenclaw's death, Gryffindor also left Hogwarts. So far, only Hufflepuff is left of the Big Four. She is also the first headmaster of Hogwarts."
"Back then, every house was eating in its own common room, and Hufflepuff had education reforms where all students ate in the Great Hall.
For the fights between different students, Ms. Hufflepuff has formulated a strict system of adding and deducting points, and the winner in the end will get the Academy Cup.
Much of our current system is inherited from Ms. Hufflepuff. "
It can be seen that Professor Binns likes Hufflepuff very much and praises her all the time. Of course, he also admired Ravenclaw very much.
As for Gryffindor and Slytherin, most of them are based on belittling.
It seems that Hogwarts can be built only by Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff...and their two useless men.
The story of the Big Four would have been fascinating, but because of the way Professor Binns lectured, the students fell asleep, even Hermione was no exception.
After all, she was tortured by Rove last night and didn't sleep well!
But after Hermione slept for most of the class, she suddenly woke up from her sleep.
"How did Peter Pettigrew know the location of Nicole Flamel's estate?"
Rove, who was taking notes, was stunned. Do you still think about this kind of thing after you sleep?
"I don't know, Nicole didn't investigate it himself. Why, do you have any guesses?"
Hermione opened one eye, rubbed her cheeks with her hands and said:
"Rove, do you think Peter and Voldemort learned about it from the female reporter named Rita Skeeter?"
Rove stopped writing, narrowed his eyes and said, "Why do you think it's her?"
"The summer before last, she reported on your visit to Nicole Flamel's estate, and I have been following her." Hermione whispered:
"The photo of you together was also the first time she published it in the newspaper. That woman seems to be very well informed and may know the location of the manor."
Rove was thoughtful, and tapped his forehead lightly with the quill.
In the summer of the previous year, many famous wizards appeared in London and went to Nico's manor to attend the funeral.
This kind of thing must have caught the attention of Rita Skeeter, and she can turn into a beetle and crawl on people.
Although she couldn't enter the manor, she was able to determine the approximate location.
"Hermione, you're so smart!" Rove stretched out his thumb and admired sincerely: "This possibility does exist, and the possibility is still very high!"
Hermione smiled happily, and her two front teeth were visible again.
The girl wanted to say something more, but Professor Binns floated over with a gloomy face.
Everyone else is sleeping quietly, it's too much for the two of you to talk small things here!
Professor Binns stared at Rove and said sternly:
"Skadi, shut up! Ten points from Slytherin!!"
"..."
