days at Hogwarts

Chapter 40 Daily Prophet

Loren crunched the lamb chops in his mouth, keeping his eyes on Hermione.

Hermione, who was sitting opposite, had an uncontrollable smile on her face, eating happily and humming a scattered melody.

Hermione looked at Loren from time to time, muttering some strange words of "22 to 0".

Loren comforted himself, he was familiar with the Iron Armor Curse, and Hermione gained insignificant happiness, a win-win situation!

There is the sound of owls flapping their wings from the skylight, and there will be more letters from Hogwarts on weekends.

The little spectacled owl also brought Loren a reply from Grandpa Bates.

Loren's letter to Grandpa Bates was sent on the second Saturday of school, and it was already the third Saturday.It should take less than a week for the owl to go back and forth. Perhaps it was some time delayed by Grandpa Bates' reply, but Loren didn't care.

Putting Hanhan aside, and giving some cheese and bread, Loren read the letter.

Bates said in the letter that he was not worried about Loren at all. He only thought of writing to the old man half a month after school started.

Bates did not reply directly to what Loren said about returning to the city. He said that he would go to some old places back then and let Loren not worry too much.

Throughout the letter, Bates didn't care about any magic school, or what magical skills Loren learned.It only said at the end of the letter that the two sheep in the family had calved, and when Loren came back, it would be suitable for roast lamb.

After reading the letter, Loren folded it neatly and put it in his pocket, feeling warm in his heart.

Hmph, what is suitable for roasting a lamb? It's not because I miss him. The old man is like this, just stubborn.

Tomorrow is the night of the full moon, and I don't know how the old man is doing, whether he still has to go to the mountains.

Loren didn't reply immediately, he planned to wait until he got the Wolfsbane potion and let Hanhan take it back with him.

The werewolf matter was over, and even Hanhan, who was pecking at the food next to him, seemed cuter. Loren reached out to stroke the spectacled owl's feathers.

Hermione was looking at the owl too, she had been there when it was bought, "It looks a little bigger."

Loren nodded, and stuffed a piece of pudding into his mouth, "You can definitely say that it has gained a lot of fat."

"Cuckoo!" The little spectacled owl focused on the cheese looked up, you are very rude!

"So what did you name it?" Hermione asked curiously.

Loren's hand that stuffed something into his mouth froze, taking a name?I don't seem to have thought about it, I kept calling stupidly, stupidly.

He tentatively said: "Hanhan?" These two characters are pronounced in Chinese.

The little spectacled owl responded immediately: "Google!"

Hermione repeated it twice. She didn't understand what it meant, and thought it was a simple duplication, like meow, Pippi or something like that.

"I want to borrow Hanhan and write a letter to my parents."

Hermione hasn't written home since school started.It was the first time I went to school away from my parents, even if the mystery of magic was enough to relieve the loneliness when I was alone, I missed my parents more and more.

It is difficult for her to describe to her parents what magical principles she has learned. The tone of the spell will affect the result, just like the grammar of middle school students who cannot speak words when they call home, Newton's first law.

The little girl's life after school is also monotonous, and her relationship with her roommates is not too close.For a long time, Loren was the only friend. After the night tour, he got acquainted with the three of Harry.

Seeing Loren's correspondence with her family, Hermione made up her mind to write a letter to her parents, telling her about the headmaster as an old man with a white beard, and about her favorite Professor McGonagall.

Loren agreed: "Of course..."

"Merlin's beard!"

Not far away, Seamus leaned next to Ron and Harry, looked at the Daily Prophet in their hands, and exclaimed.

The Daily Prophet reported on Peter Pettigrew's trial, releasing some news from the scene of the trial.

Pettigrew Peter defected to the Dark Lord in 1981 and betrayed the Potters, resulting in the murder of the two, and the death of the Dark Lord.

Peter created an explosion on the way to be hunted down by Sirius, blowing up a street, killing 12 Muggles, and leaving his finger to fake death.After blaming Sirius, he used illegal Animagus to hide in Weasley's house for 10 years.Suspected to be exposed by Dumbledore, he was captured and handed over to the Ministry of Magic.

The Daily Prophet has obscured the details of the arrest process, and they don't know the inside story, so they can only make some guesses.

At the trial seat, Pettigrew Peter had nothing to say, but his mother claimed that Pettigrew Peter's actions led to the end of the Dark Lord, and that he was a hero and should not be judged.

The court refuted the unreasonable old woman and sentenced Pettigrew to spend the rest of his life in Azkaban.

After the report explained the incident information, it praised the wise leadership of the Minister of Magic, Fudge, and rehabilitated the wrong case left by the previous term.Only one small paragraph mentions Hogwarts and Dumbledore's credit.

After learning about the whole thing, Seamus was so excited that he couldn't contain it, and repeatedly sighed "Merlin's beard!"

One of my roommates was the savior who killed the Dark Lord and saved the wizarding world.

Another roommate's family kept Death Eaters as pets for 10 years.

There is also a roommate who exposed the Death Eater who had been hiding for 10 years within a few days of school, and vindicated the unjust case.

Even the most humble Neville is a descendant of a hero, a family of Aurors.

Simo sighed, suddenly realized that he was the only one who seemed to be nothing, frowned, and fell into a strange inferiority complex.

Harry was very happy. The accomplice who killed his parents was punished, and there was an additional godfather.

Harry still has a lot of doubts about what happened back then, scars, and the inexplicable title of the savior, Harry's mind is always full of doubts.

Ron looked at the report and thought of Scabbers again, more disgusted than scared.

That day, his pet turned into a chunky, disgusting middle-aged man in front of him, which was the biggest shock Ron had ever suffered in his life.

Eating and sleeping with cute pets, memories of being in love with each other frantically flashed in his mind, Ron scratched his head, "No, no, no."

The more he evaded the memory, the clearer the picture was. Ron couldn't eat anymore, gave up resistance, and sat on the stool with blank eyes.

The senior students gathered around Percy and the twins asking if the three of them had been cursed, and if they had found someone stealing food in the house in the middle of the night.

Percy's complexion was also very bad, and he didn't say anything. Banban had been his pet for a while, and there were many dirty pictures in his memory.

George and Fred pick some questions to answer:
"Yes, when we were six years old we had a serious illness from Peter Pettigrew."

"In bed all week."

When they were six years old, they hid Banban in the vegetable soup made by Molly, and were beaten until they couldn't get out of bed for a week.

"We also found out that something was wrong with Pettigrew and wanted to investigate him."

"Stopped by Percy."

The two wanted to use Banban as a test object and do some magical experiments with props.
