Chapter 321 Being Targeted
Hermione was stunned. Why is the gap between people so big?
She worked hard last year to get all the A's in N.E.W.T.s two years ahead of schedule. Higashino Heng, the god of learning, took less than a year to complete three N.E.W.T.s courses from scratch and studied these magic researches beyond the N.E.W.T.s level.
Don't underestimate these three subjects. They are the three most important life-saving subjects in the magic world. No one can finish them in a year, but Higashino Heng completed this feat in less than a year.
More importantly, his research even made Chen Bin, a professor with all the A's, feel pressured. What kind of monster is this?
Then, Harry changed the topic and started talking about the fun things in the common room, and Hermione's attention was quickly diverted.
The four laughed and talked for a while, and finally checked out and left.
After walking on the street for a while, they met the main person they had just discussed. Higashino Heng was walking with Fujiwara Aihua.
Hogsmeade is so small that you can meet almost all the students above the third grade if you walk through it.
Chen Bin saw them walking side by side and immediately joked, "Yo~ Are you dating?"
Fujiwara Aihua blushed instantly when she heard this, but lowered her head and did not refute.
"How could it be? School prohibits dating." Higashino Heng refuted righteously, but he did not see Fujiwara's smile froze instantly.
"Yes, we are just good friends." Fujiwara said with a sweet smile.
"Unrequited love!" This is a word that Chen Bin and his group thought of at the same time.
"Why don't we go shopping together!" Hermione singled her eyes at Fujiwara, who immediately understood her eyes and blushed again.
"If Higashino-kun doesn't mind..." Fujiwara lowered his head and said halfway, Higashino Heng had already said casually, "Let's go shopping together, Brother Chen."
After walking for a while and visiting the clothing store, Chen Bin caught Higashino Heng in the store when everyone was leaving. "Boy, you deserve to be alone! Sister Fujiwara likes you!"
"I know!"
Dongye's answer was beyond Chen Bin's imagination, but before he could ask further, Dongye continued: "But I only see her as a friend. When I returned to the sect last week during the Spring Festival, my junior sister and I had agreed to get married after I graduated. She will be 18 years old this summer, and our two families have agreed. The head of the sect has also agreed to preside over the wedding. You also know that a long-distance relationship will not have a good result. It is better to pretend that you don't know, at least let Fujiwara live in a beautiful fantasy for a while, instead of living in sadness for the next four and a half months."
Chen Bin was petrified. Is every chief academic god so rational and mature? He thought Dongye was a steel straight man, but he turned out to be a master of emotional intelligence!
Chen Bin quietly told Kate, Harry and Hermione about this, and warned them not to match people up randomly.
Next, Hermione deliberately walked with Fujiwara, and Dongye also tactfully talked to Harry about some magic experience. Fujiwara was the only one in the group who had been kept in the dark.
Suddenly, Chen Bin felt that he was being watched again.
"Yes, you also found it." A barely perceptible Russian voice sounded from Chen Bin's ears. "I am Mahalat."
Chen Bin could tell that it was Katerina's voice, and she was walking intimately with Chen Bin's hand.
At this time, Chen Bin remembered that he could sense these gazes, and Mahalat, who was more sensitive than himself, could not fail to notice it.
In this dream of nearly two months, Mahalat also ordered a single dream loop for him almost every night, repeatedly watching the part where the Sibyl clan leader fought against the ancient psychopath in the air.
Chen Bin could not learn any skills in this dream, nor could he understand any magical powers or laws, but his ability to distinguish the murderous aura or hostility in reality was indeed strengthened a little bit.
In the past, in the castle, he could sense some students secretly glancing at him. After being strengthened, he could also sense a trace of resentment among them. If he turned his head and looked quickly, he would find that they were the students who were tortured to death by him in the practical training last night.
There was no such thing as admiration or secret love. Chen Bin was always showing off his love for her and had already driven away any little girl who had a crush on him.
Now, Chen Bin could clearly sense two hostile and wary eyes staring at him. There was a high chance that they were the group of people who had fought with him on the day he bought the wand.
"Don't." Mahlat saw Chen Bin reaching for the traceless stretching bag and immediately guessed that he was going to take out the short message machine to notify Dumbledore.
At this time, the shortcoming of the short message machine was exposed.
The people who were monitoring them could also see which letters he pressed.
Chen Bin also reacted after her reminder. Now he couldn't notify anyone at all. Even if he shot out the Patronus to send a message to Old Dumbledore, the other party would notice it. They must know what this thing is.
"We have something to do. Be careful. Remember to be accompanied by a professor before leaving Hogsmeade." Maharaj pulled Chen Bin's hand and turned back to say to the four people.
Harry and Hermione were also stunned for a moment, but they reacted in an instant.
"Okay."
"Go back to correct homework."
Hermione's words were obviously nonsense. The whole school knew that Chen Bin didn't have to correct homework, but the enemy didn't know!
That's right, she knew that Chen Bin was in trouble, so she gave an obvious flaw to let Chen Bin know that they knew.
Chen Bin and them had already set the code of "be careful", which meant that he was likely to encounter danger or fight next, so Harry, Ron and Hermione immediately sought the protection of the dean.
"You are leaving so soon?" Fujiwara Aihua was stunned.
Hermione pulled her forward. "Let's sit down and have a drink."
"Heng, go this way." Harry pointed in the direction of the Three Broomsticks pub.
Dumbledore and McGonagall were stationed there to protect nearby students.
After watching the two of them enter the bar, Chen Bin and Maharat walked towards the entrance of the village.
Chen Bin will not leave Caitlina's safety to Dumbledore.
Although those eyes were directed at him, when he couldn't protect Caitlina, he could still disapparate together, which was better than being on Dumbledore's side and only getting a meaningless apology after something happened.
However, when he walked out of the village, Chen Bin's face suddenly darkened because a strong chaotic magic suddenly arose in the nearby area. It's like the silver box you made yourself, blocking the teleportation ability within this range.
There is no absolute blockade in the world, as long as they are willing to take risks, such as being cut into dozens of "partitions" by forcibly breaking through space, and each part may be randomly thrown into various places he has been.
Chen Bin has not yet faced an irreversible situation, so it is not worth taking the risk in advance.
Maharat took out his magic wand and looked at Chen Bin.
"Come out!" Chen Bin held two sticks and stood back to back with Maharat to keep alert.
No one responded.
"If you don't come out, we will go back to find Harry." Maharat said.
There was a more obvious emotion coming from the bushes on the left.
Chen Bin knew that Maharat wanted to deceive them. At least he could figure out that their target was not only the two of them, but also Harry.
"Let's go!" When Chen Bin finished speaking and was about to leave, a deep voice came from the bushes on the right: "We can talk."
"What is your purpose?" Chen Bin couldn't sense anyone there, but his eyes were still coming from the woods on the left. That is to say, the source of the sound is either a wireless amplifier or sound transmission magic, in short, it is not a human.
However, he had no intention of exposing it and seeing what tricks they were going to play.
"We also want to destroy Voldemort, but the world has changed. Judging from various signs, you and the professor next to you should not exist in Hogwarts, and are probably the original culprits who changed everything. I want to ask you, Are you the same kind of person as us?"
Chen Bin was not surprised that they found out the original source. Anyone who has watched "Harry Potter" also knows that Chen Bin and Kate should not exist, and there should not be exchange students this year.
Also, there are a lot of changes now, especially the war that broke out between Voldemort and the Black Uncles when Voldemort hid in Africa. The origin of everything is also related to the Naama family.
"I don't know what you mean by the same kind of people." As soon as Chen Bin finished speaking, there was a rhythmic vibration in his pocket, and he immediately felt relieved. All he had to do was hold these two people back.
The other party was silent for a while, probably digesting Chen Bin's words.
Maharat also deliberately looked to the right, but he was also alert to the movement of the trees on the left.
A few seconds later, the speaker in the bush on the right, uh, let's just think that the thing making the sound was a wireless speaker, it finally spoke.
"You also want to destroy Voldemort? But why did you change the situation to this? Isn't this a forcible increase in difficulty? Have you not thought about the consequences you will face if you fail?"
There was doubt in this man's voice, and the hostility in those two "eyes" was even more intense.
Chen Bin pretended to be relaxed and spread his hands, shook his head and said: "You are wrong. You and I are not the same kind, so don't reveal relevant information, otherwise you will probably die."
"Who are you?" The voice was obviously trembling, but Chen Bin still pretended to be calm and said: "In short, I am not the same kind as you, and I have no interest in becoming a plaything of some existence."
As soon as he finished speaking, the two eyes were not only hostile, but also had strong emotional fluctuations.
Maharat also noticed it, his expression became a little more solemn, and his hand holding the wand became a little harder.
The man's voice sounded again, this time with a clearly disguised indifference in his tone. "You know who we are, right?"
Chen Bin once again felt a faint rhythmic vibration coming from his pocket, and a smile spread across his lips. "I guess, there may be some discrepancies in the approximate identity, but it's pretty much the same."
There was silence, the atmosphere solidified, and the magic disorder was still maintained.
Ten seconds later, the man said again: "You know who we are, we have the same goal, and we can cooperate."
Chen Bin did not delay, and refused readily: "You are not a suitable partner. You have a time limit, and you can do anything to escape death. In order to survive, you can ignore the life and death of this world."
"We are not this kind of scum..." The man wanted to deny it, but Chen Bin directly interrupted his explanation: "But you hide your head and show your tail, and you have no support except a few of you. In our world, you are just With a small team, we can send powerful troops to surround you at any time."
The man was silent again, and Chen Bin was sure that they were stalling for time.
