[026] Disgust from Hermione
For others, Harry may be the savior and the boy who survived the disaster, but for Hermione, after the initial surprise, in her eyes, Harry was just a sloppy Gryffindor.
After all... Harry can't give Gryffindor points in his daily life, and even has side effects in potion classes, so Hermione doesn't mean to "tend him differently" to Harry.
Useless guy, he is still urging Carl to monitor Snape with you - do you dislike Gryffindor too much?
Seeing Hermione start to get angry, Harry and Ron looked at each other off guard. The two of them were completely unaware of what kind of storm they would face after annoying Hermione. For more than ten minutes, Hermione's mouth, which seemed like a machine gun, simply stopped!
The explanation Harry prepared early on was meaningless in the face of Hermione's high-intensity output, and it was not worth mentioning. With the invocation of large and large school rules, our poor Mr. Savior has begun to doubt life - am I an absolute bastard?
"…So." After saying a lot, Hermione finally ended the output, "Why are you going to monitor Snape?"
Seeing that he finally had the opportunity to speak, Harry completely forgot the secret he had thought about before and told everything upright.
"That is, you find that there is a magic stone hidden in the corridor that is not allowed to enter?" Hermione was quite surprised. She thought it was just Harry and Ron who were making trouble, but she didn't expect that it seemed that they were really involved in a big event. "And Snape is likely to have an attempt at it?"
"That's right!" Harry nodded, "I saw it with my own eyes that Snape wanted to enter the corridor while the professors were going to put out the fire, and then was stopped by Professor Quirrell."
Hermione seemed to be moved—but after a moment, she shook her head.
"In my opinion," Hermione quickly made suggestions on Harry's idea of taking part in person. "If this is the case, maybe we should inform Professor McGonagall better - ask Carl to talk to Professor McGonagall, at least we should believe that Professor McGonagall is reliable, right?"
Although "saying the teacher" is not a glorious thing from the perspective of students, Professor McGonagall is Carl's adoptive mother after all, so it would be a good decision to tell Professor McGonagall everything if possible.
After hearing what Hermione said, Harry was obviously a little moved - in fact, Harry is not ready to "fight" Snape directly, and Harry is still afraid of the greasy big bat.
Seeing that Harry wanted to give up, Ron was so anxious.
In Ron's opinion, Harry is the best pathfinder. As long as everything is under the name of Harry, even if something goes wrong, he can easily throw it to Harry - not to mention that the title of Savior is sometimes quite useful, and Ron is very envious of Harry's invisible cloak.
Now if Harry is convinced and promises to tell Professor McGonagall... Then how could he use Harry's name and the invisible cloak to explore the Philosopher's Stone?
Harry must not be allowed to retreat!
"We can't tell the professor about this." Thinking of this, Ron spoke decisively, "Even if we are willing to say it, will the professor really be willing to believe it?"
After finding the entry point, Ron's tone also rose.
"Think about it, let's talk to Professor McGonagall, your colleague, the dean of Slytherin, was going to steal the Philosopher's Stone. Harry was wearing an invisible cloak and saw his conflict with Professor Quirrell - would you guess she stared at Snape, or would we be deducted points for night tours and confiscated?"
Ron's words fooled Harry and to a certain extent Hermione - Professor McGonagall has always faced students with a strict attitude. Many people even graduated for many years and would have weak legs when they see Professor McGonagall. If they tell her everything, Gryffindor would probably lose a lot of points, and Harry's invisible cloak might be confiscated!
According to Harry, the Invisible Cloak is the legacy of the Potter family. In this case, Hermione could not say "must tell the professor" no matter what.
Seeing that the situation was a little frozen, Carl, who had not spoken, finally spoke up.
"Maybe we don't have to be so nervous." Looking at Harry, who was hesitant, Carl smiled. "We can stare at it for the time being and collect some useful evidence. As long as we get the key evidence, our mother will definitely stand on our side - we can ignore the invisible cloak, just pretend it was heard when I was looking for Harry in the group, so there is no problem."
The compromise was naturally good. The four little wizards quickly reached an agreement and decided to monitor Snape while collecting evidence. After gaining something, Carl came forward and notified Professor McGonagall!
In this process, under Carl's conscious guidance, Hermione finally joined this small group.
At present, everyone's division of labor is like this.
Harry monitored Snape, Ron inquire about the news, Carl summarized and communicated with Professor McGonagall, and Hermione was responsible for everyone's homework.
The meeting ended, and after class, Harry and Ron left the classroom excitedly, and Hermione finally felt something was wrong.
Why... my task became to help those two bastards do homework?!
Aren't we talking about "protecting the Philosopher's Stone from being stolen by Snape", why do I have to defend the Philosopher's Stone in the form of doing two extra assignments?!
Moreover, in the end, it seemed that Carl didn't seem to have any actual tasks - to investigate the news, the surveillance professor's work was done voluntarily by the two idiots, and he leaned against him and started dozing off!
Extremely bastard!
Just as Hermione was about to go wild, Carl, who realized this, finally got up.
This time, Carl showed a rare serious expression.
"Hermione." Carl looked at Hermione, "Are you interested in learning some special curse from me?"
Miss Wanshitong’s complaints and criticisms were stuck in her throat - Merlin was on, she really wanted to criticize Carl’s behavior, but the temptation of the curse was too great!
