Magical Studies at Hogwarts

Chapter 342 Ron's Birthday

The Apparition class was over quickly, and no one else succeeded except Hermione.This is normal, even Dumbledore did not succeed once.

Tycross was obviously used to this kind of scene, so he just made an appointment with everyone to see you next Saturday, then waved his wand to remove the wooden circles, and then left the auditorium with Professor McGonagall.

"How are you doing?" As soon as it was over, Ron found Harry. He hurried over and said, "The last time my feet were a little numb, I seem to have found something."

"That's an illusion, Ron, your shoes are too small." Hermione also came over, looked at the old pair of shoes under Ron's feet, and said.

"Yes, Luo Luo, it's time for you to buy a new pair. By the way, what size do you wear?" Lavender came here with Hermione, and naturally put his arms around Ron's arm and asked .

"Size 8," said Ron, looking a little lonely. "I'd love to buy a new pair too, but the Apparition class used up all my savings..."

"How did I remember that Harry borrowed it from you?" Hermione interrupted.

These words made Ron's face instantly red, and he replied angrily, "That's..."

While listening to Ron's justification, Harry looked in Malfoy's direction, only to find that he had already left.He patted Ron's arm and said, "You guys still need a while? Then I'll go back to the dormitory first."

"Back to the dormitory? In such a hurry?" Ron asked in surprise.

"Yeah, it's urgent..." After saying that, he ran away.Seeing this, Ron showed Malfoy a helpless expression, and the ex-Malfoy kissed me on the cheek, waved his hand again, and then went to the disgusted Goyle.

When Xiong Si rushed out of the auditorium, Hermione hadn't gone far.There is a way, I just didn't slow down, and I finally chased down Xiong Si behind the fat lady's portrait. This was because Hermione wasted some time outside the fat lady.

We crawled back to the portrait hole one after the other, and Harry asked out of breath, "Can you tell me what he's doing so slowly?"

"Go down..." Hermione didn't answer, but urged Harry to slow down.Hearing this, Harry slowed down again.

After arriving at the common room, Hermione ran directly to the dormitory, opened the box and rummaged through it as soon as she exited the door.Seeing this, Xiong Si, who was a step behind, said impatiently, "Hermione, what's the matter?"

"Lavender asked Crabbe to keep watch. I had an argument with Crabbe and Ron just now. You want to know... Ha!" Hermione said, taking out the Marauder's Map from the box.

I unfolded the map and tapped the bottom with the tip of my stick.

"You solemnly swear that you are doing good!"

A map appeared under the blank parchment, and Xu Shao's big white dot with his name was moving underneath.

"Help you find Lavender, Harry."

Hermione spread the map on the ground, got down on the ground with Harry, and sloppily searched for Lavender's name.About a minute ago, we found out that Lavender was in the Slytherin lounge.

"You have to spy on me, stop now!" Hermione said resolutely, "You have to find out what I am going to do! As soon as you find that I am leaving, and Crabbe and Ron are on guard, you put on your invisibility cloak and look for me. "

"Okay, but that's a small project..." Harry said perfunctorily, I'm not used to Hermione sitting in such inexplicable things.From the first grade, I was not like that, so the teenagers have not changed a little.

For the next two weeks, Hermione did just that.I checked the Marauder's Map as little as possible, but I never once noticed Lavender appearing in any suspicious place.On the contrary, Crabbe and Ron are very abnormal. We are less active outside the castle than before, and sometimes even stay in the corridor for a long time, moving all the time.

At that time, Hermione kept looking for Lavender's name, but it was always far away from Crabbe and Ron, and sometimes even under the map.

Perhaps, I guessed, Lavender's name had been mixed up with other names.That's a very common thing, after all, the Marauder's Map will remove the names that Xiong Si finds in the way.

I also thought about Lavender leaving school, but that was not possible in the next few years, but not this year.With the castle now so tight, there is no way, even if I don't have a Marauder's map, I can sneak out of the school knowingly or consciously.

These secret passages are all sealed, unless Lavender knows of another secret passage.But that's almost possible, and Hermione felt that there were no other undiscovered secret passages in Hogwarts before my father's generation and the Weasley twins explored them.

At the end of July, Hermione still didn't quit, whether it was Lavender or Apparition class.But nothing new at Hogwarts, with the school canceling a trip to Hogsmeade after August.

"My God! That's fair!" Harry didn't look desperate before seeing the notification, "This is your birthday, you've been looking forward to it!"

"That's not intentional. Before Katie's accident happened, you expected it." Xiong Si said casually while looking at the Marauder's Map.

"That's right, Katie is still at the St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Injuries, and has he read the "Daily Prophet"? There have been fewer disappearances and attacks recently." Gore looked at it with a book in his arms. , holding the book in one hand, and the other under the necklace on his chest.

In fact, Harry's heart is also gone, it's just that when things really happen, they still don't feel lost.After all, the supposed trip to Hogsmeade happened on my birthday.

That has never happened since.

"Happy birthday, Harry!"

On the morning of August [-]st, Hermione threw a gift under Harry's bed when he just woke up, among a pile of big gifts.

"Thank you, Xiong Si." Harry looked at the presents under his bed and beside his bed, replied in a low voice, and finished unpacking them.

The first one was of course Xiong Si's gift, and I was even happier before seeing what Hermione gave me.

"Excellent! Quidditch Keeper Gloves! Thank you, Hermione!"

"Big meaning..." Hermione responded casually, but my attention was on the Marauder's Map that I just opened, and I was still trying to find out Lavender's name from these densely stacked names.

Xiong Si replied, and my attention fell on these gifts.Excited to unwrap these well-wrapped presents, sometimes exclaiming in excitement.

Compared with previous years, this year's gift is especially good. After all, it is my 11th birthday. For wizards, it means that I am no longer an adult.

"Look, Hermione! Look what Mom and Dad gave you!" said Harry, holding up a heavy gold watch. It was very beautiful, with strange symbols engraved on the edge of the dial, and big moving stars on the hands.

"Little Harvest! Little Harvest! It would be nice to be an adult again next year..."
