Chapter 167 A Warm and Positive Feeling
Chen Bin chatted with Kate for a while and invited her to the dance floor for the next dance.
On the other side, Ludo Bagman was about to get rid of Fred and George, but suddenly saw them smile strangely.
"What are you laughing at? It's not that I won't pay you back, I just won't give it to you until the end of this school year."
George shook his head, took out a letter from his inner pocket, and said with a sly smile: "You don't have to pay us back. I have sold this debt document to the Nama family, and they will send a debt collection letter to the Bagman family and the Ministry of Magic tomorrow. If you don't pay it back tomorrow, they will freeze your Gringotts account and forcibly seize all your family's properties."
Ludo Bagman snatched the letter in disbelief and saw that the gambling debt was really sold to the Nama family. This giant in the magic world is definitely not something Bagman can afford to provoke.
"You want to destroy the Bagman family..." Ludo Bagman fainted in anger before he finished speaking.
Percy hurried over to help him up, and anxiously roared at the twins: "What did you say to him? How could he faint?"
"Is he your real father? You care about him so much." George said contemptuously.
"Official fan." Fred said sarcastically.
Percy wanted to argue, but the two brothers went back to their table.
"Go back!" Chen Bin and Kate exchanged glances and slipped out of the hall without everyone noticing. He danced two dances with Kate, and stayed for a while to feel the atmosphere of the dance. Everyone was no longer interested in this dance.
On the way to the lake, the two noticed that many senior male and female dance partners were in pairs. Chen Bin deliberately used his garbage lighting spell to scare them, and Snape was still checking a carriage!
"Bin, your magic really gives me a warm and positive feeling." Katerina said with a red face.
Chen Bin hesitated. Is this a compliment?
"What are you thinking about?" Kate saw the smirk on Chen Bin's face, and her face suddenly became redder. "I'm serious. Your magic is different from others, but I can't tell where it's different."
(〃'▽'〃): "Well, I believe you. You are my star, you are my moon, you are my heart..."
Kate decided not to talk about this topic with him again in the future. This dead kid didn't believe it at all.
She trotted towards the new teaching building, and Chen Bin chased after her slyly, reciting love poems aloud.
The girl's face became even redder.
On the second day of Christmas, everyone got up late, but Chen Bin was woken up by Old Dumbledore, who anxiously asked him to listen to what happened last night.
Ron and Harry met in the garden as scheduled, and heard Karkaroff and Snape vaguely discussing the Dark Mark, and then overheard Hagrid confessing his giant bloodline to Madam Maxime, in exchange for the other party saying that he was just a big skeleton lie.
During the rest of the ball, Harry and Ron searched for Hermione all over the castle. Finally, they returned to the common room after midnight and learned from the junior girls that Hermione had gone back to her dormitory to sleep.
There was nothing wrong with all this, but Dumbledore found Hermione wandering around in Harry's invisibility cloak late at night. This was completely beyond the description in the prophecy. How dare Hermione break the school rules alone?
Dumbledore followed her secretly and watched her eavesdropping with a stethoscope at the door of Sirius' dormitory for more than an hour. After making sure that the drunk Sirius was asleep, he used magic to open the door and floated the book "Goblet of Fire" back to his safe.
At this time, Dumbledore felt that the situation was serious. He used a coma spell on her and took her to an empty classroom, then used Legilimency on her and finally figured out the whole story.
When Hermione heard that Krum regarded her as a spare tire, she ran around the castle in tears. She hated Katerina, Krum, and the ruthless Chen Bin even more. As she continued to hate him, she almost vented her anger and once again stopped hating anyone.
Coincidentally, she walked past Sirius's door, and he didn't close it tightly.
When she was about to close the door for Sirius, she heard Sirius's resentful voice from inside the room: "Karkaroff has done a lot of work with the Ministry of Magic. He said he realized his mistakes, and then he named many people... He put a large number of people into Azkaban to replace him... I can tell you that he is very unpopular there. As far as I know, he has been teaching dark magic to the students of his school since he got out. Therefore, you should also be wary of the warrior from Durmstrang."
At first, Hermione thought there were other professors chatting with him in the room, but as she listened, she felt something was wrong, because it seemed that Sirius had said this to Harry.
When Sirius finished speaking, he heard him mutter to himself: "I didn't recite this paragraph well enough before, and it didn't have the realistic tension now. Hmm, what's the next paragraph? Yes, it should be..."
Hermione heard him narrate the story of Harry's wand being stolen in the top box of the World Cup with great emotion, and also talked about Barty Crouch Jr. who was a Death Eater and died in Azkaban, so Barty Sr. also lost the qualification to run for Minister of Magic, etc.
This incoherent monologue confused Hermione for a while. When she was about to close the door, she suddenly heard Sirius mutter to himself excitedly: "I finally memorized the most difficult paragraph, and I don't need to look at the prophecy book that Aaron gave me anymore."
This finally solved the mystery in Hermione's mind, and made her think about the prophecy book.
She heard the sound of Sirius throwing items into the box, and then he was ready to change into a dress.
After Sirius went out to attend the party, Hermione used magic to open the door to Sirius's dormitory.
Except for the entrances to the lounges of the four colleges and the principal's office door, which are blessed with powerful magic, the magic spells on the other doors in the castle are all designed to protect against gentlemen and not villains. Some doors even have no magic spells at all. .
She came to the messy room and quickly found a metal folder under the bed, which required a five-digit alphabetical password. Without thinking too much, Hermione entered Harry for the first time and the folder opened.
She eliminated the traces of the invasion, returned to the dormitory, and while letting the twenty magic quills automatically copy, she read the prophecy book as fast as she could in her life, and then was discovered by Lao Deng when she returned the "Goblet of Fire" to its original owner. .
Lao Deng made a simple assessment of her memory. The content of "Goblet of Fire" has been integrated into the depths of the knowledge area in her brain. If it is to be forcibly eliminated, it requires a high degree of proficiency in the Forgetting Curse, and it must be separated. It would take more than a dozen times to erase such a huge and profound memory.
Such a huge amount of elimination will naturally have a major impact on Hermione, and it is possible that she may even lose some important memory or knowledge. Lao Deng still remembered that he had made an agreement with Chen Bin that he needed to seek his opinion before taking action against the trio, so he now appeared in Chen Bin's living room.
"Do you think we should erase her memory?" Lao Deng's suggestion seemed quite neutral, but Chen Bin felt that he was inclined to do so.
In Chen Bin's eyes, it doesn't matter whether it disappears or not. Anyway, the next actions will change the plot beyond recognition.
Therefore, he asked: "Aren't you afraid that her important memories or knowledge will be accidentally deleted by mistake, thereby affecting history?"
"This possibility cannot be ruled out." Lao Deng thought for a while and sighed: "Otherwise, you send someone to keep an eye on her to see if she will do anything extraordinary. If she does, you should talk to her. ”
"Why didn't you go and talk?" Chen Bin became resistant again.
"Who named the authors of "Goblet of Fire" Isabel Naama and Bin Chen?" Lao Deng joked jokingly, and then sent the prophecy books of McGonagall, Moody, Lupine and Sirius back to Chen Bin in hand.
"It seems that starting from the fifth episode, I can only dictate the content to them." Before leaving, Lao Deng said a little self-blame: "It seems that recruiting Sirius here is not a good thing, he is really unreliable. ”
Chen Bin agreed with what he said. This year's new teaching building has become a garbage dump, with all the characters that should have disappeared crammed in.
At the end of breakfast, Chen Bin and Kate took Ron to the vacant classroom and bribed him to monitor Hermione for any inappropriate behavior.
"There is no way I would betray my friends." Ron refused angrily.
Chen Bin had already thought that he would answer like this, so he took out the equity agreement written by his twin brothers. "If you can help me protect Hermione's safety, my equity will be shared with you, and you will become my shareholder representative and work with the two Mr. Weasleys to develop their careers."
After Ron saw this string of zeros, he immediately swallowed his saliva. He had never seen so much money in his life, but to Chen Bin, ten thousand gold galleons was just a small amount of money.
"You really don't have any evil intentions towards Hermione?" Ron was still making his final struggle.
Caitlina smiled at the right time and said: "We saw that Hermione's mood was getting more and more unstable, so we asked her friends to take care of her. I think you have seen her changes in the past two years. We have always been Friends, I don’t want her to go to extremes, and this kind of equity sharing is purely a mutual support between friends. Didn’t you see that George and Fred had already accepted it?”
"This..." Ron's terminal cancer has struck again.
