Chapter 363 The Cycle of Fate
Blurred colors and shapes fill the space, and everything around is changing rapidly.
Ivan's eyes widened. He eagerly wanted to know what happened in this place after he left, whether Hermione arrived at Hogwarts Castle safely, and whether the dementors caught up with her.
But the speed of the surrounding changes was so fast that Ivan could only see a large number of black shadows falling from the sky at a certain moment and then scattering.
Occasionally, a few vaguely shaped animals passed by, and more often it was the alternation between day and night.
After an unknown amount of time, everything finally stabilized and Ivan regained his ability to move.
Looking up at the sky, it was already evening. Ivan knew that he should have returned to the normal time. He remembered that it was in the evening when he used the time converter.
"I wonder how Hermione is doing?" Ivan sighed.
Ivan guessed that the dark shadows he saw before were probably dementors searching for him and Hermione in the Forbidden Forest. He hoped that the little witch would have left by then.
Otherwise, Ivan glanced at the time converter in his hand, hesitated, and still didn't use it.
He decided to go to the castle to check the situation first. If everything goes well, Hermione should be back by now.
Thinking of this, Ivan took out the Marauder's Map, tapped his wand, and muttered.
"I solemnly swear that I have done nothing wrong!"
On a blank piece of parchment, many delicate ink lines suddenly appeared, spreading and connecting like spider web lines to every corner of the parchment, drawing a map clearly marked with names.
Peter Pettigrew was fast asleep in his dormitory, Ron and Harry were in the common room, and Dumbledore was staying peacefully in his headmaster's office.
As for Hermione
Ivan searched around and successfully found the name of the little witch. It seemed that she was moving quickly, maybe going somewhere.
Ivan held the map and calculated Hermione's movement while walking quickly towards Hogwarts Castle, easily blocking her in the corridor.
"Hermione!" Ivan greeted.
The little witch who was hurriedly running around in the castle suddenly turned her head when she heard Ivan's voice, holding her book and saying angrily.
"Finally I found you, Ivan! You just went too far when you used the coma spell on me!"
The angry words of the little witch made Ivan stunned, but he noticed the beads of sweat on Hermione's forehead and the thick book in her hand, and quickly understood what was going on.
Before Ivan could respond, Hermione thrust the book in her hand into Ivan's arms. "I found some records in this book. Please read it quickly. It should be helpful."
Ivan lowered his head and glanced. This was the book "Decryption of Black Magic".
"Thank you, Hermione!" Ivan said with emotion without opening the book.
"Don't talk about this now." The little witch shook her head eagerly and signaled Ivan to quickly flip through the book. The content is on page 125 of this book!
Ivan only turned a few pages. Since he had read all the contents, he just turned over them later.
When I saw that the book "Black Magic Decrypted" contained a large number of cruel analysis of black magic experiments, I remembered the questions that I had been puzzled about before but had never had time to ask.
"By the way Hermione! Why did you think of looking for this book? Don't you usually never read books on dark magic?"
Hermione hesitated for a while, then told her about the note she found on the bedside when she woke up. Then she took out the crumpled note from the pocket of her wizard robe and typed it. Come on.
Ivan clearly saw it read: "Decryption of Black Magic" on the ninth column of the bookshelf in the 13th row of the restricted book area!
The most important thing is that Ivan recognized that it was Hermione's handwriting!
"Remember the question you asked me back then? What kind of changes will occur when potions are used on a dead wizard?" Hermione spoke very fast, and then continued to explain aloud.
"I'm not as smart as you, so I checked a lot of books and thought for a long time but still didn't have a clue. But since the time turner can go back to the past, why can't we let our future self tell us the answer?"
"How is that possible? You are much smarter than me Hermione! Even I couldn't think of such a good idea!" Ivan couldn't help but said as he looked at the chattering little witch in front of him.
When the potion research was in trouble before, he had never thought of such a novel method. Just as Hermione said, as long as the calculation is done properly, he can let his future self help solve some headache problems.
In addition, Ivan was relieved that since Hermione got the note, it proved that she had avoided the dementors' search in the future and returned to the castle safely.
Hermione raised her lips slightly after being praised by Ivan. She was very happy. She felt that her efforts these days were finally not in vain. But in the end, he still reservedly said that he was just studying hard and was a little clever.
"How is it? Is the content of this book useful?" Hermione looked at Ivan expectantly.
"Well, it's very useful!" Ivan nodded in response.
"I said I can definitely help! Then let's start researching it now," the little witch said confidently.
However, Ivan did not respond. He hesitated on how to explain it to Hermione.
Ivan's silence made Hermione faintly aware that something was wrong,
The happy look on the little witch's face slowly dimmed. She suddenly thought that Ivan might have ended this time travel, and her previous efforts might have been in vain.
"Have you finished what you want to do?" Hermione pursed her lips and said a little depressed.
"Yes!" Ivan nodded, then looked at the unhappy Hermione and smiled. "That's why I wanted to thank you Hermione! This time, you were really helpful!"
"You mean?" Hermione's brown eyes widened and she looked at Ivan blankly. Of course she could understand the consciousness in Ivan's words.
It took the little witch a while to react, and then she said in a panic. "But, I haven't done anything yet?"
"So, do you want to have an adventure now? But it might be a bit dangerous." Ivan took off the time turner on his body, hung it around Hermione's neck, and asked.
Ivan has realized that if he doesn't send the current little witch away, he will never be able to touch her in the future.
Because the time point of departure is also the time point when you will return after the residence time is reached.
