A Magical Journey Starting at Hogwarts

Hermione told Harry and Ron that the thing Momo was guarding was the Sorcerer's Stone, and both of them were shocked after knowing the power of the Sorcerer's Stone.

"No wonder Snape wants to steal it." Old Ron said thoughtfully, "Having that stone is equivalent to having endless wealth."

"There's a long life ahead," Harry added.

Hermione rolled her eyes silently in her mind. These two guys were really trying to blame Professor Snape all the time!

"Ahem! Now we know that what Momo is guarding is the Philosopher's Stone, and..." Hermione paused slightly as she said this, "and someone wants to steal it."

"Correction, it's not someone, it's Snape." Ron said.

"We don't have 100% evidence to prove that Professor Snape wanted to steal it. Almost everyone wants the Sorcerer's Stone, right?"

"What more evidence do you need?" Ron sneered, "He just has his motives written on his face.

Besides, we saw him cast a curse on Harry on the Quidditch field with our own eyes. Doesn't this explain the problem? "

Harry also nodded. Snape was currently the only suspect, and he was making things difficult for him at every turn. Who else could he be?

"Okay!" Hermione looked at the determined expressions of the two people in front of her and could only shake her head, pretending to give in. "If Snape wants to steal it, the first level he has to pass is Fluffy.

It is very dangerous to pass a three-headed dog, so we have to pay attention to Hagrid. Once someone, no, once Snape asks Hagrid this question in a subtle way, then..."

"That means he's going to take action." Harry's eyes lit up, and he suddenly felt that Hermione was not just a nerd, but was also very sharp in analyzing problems.

"That's right!

Not only that, that thing was too precious. There must be more than just one guard named Maomao. Dumbledore must have set up other levels.

And Snape might have been involved, otherwise there would be no way to explain how he knew about the Philosopher's Stone. "

Ron was instantly shocked, "I always thought you could only draw inferences during exams. I didn't expect you to think about it so much. It would be a pity not to be an Auror after graduation."

When Hermione heard this, there was a hint of embarrassment on her face. This was all analyzed by Aaron, and she just explained it like a cat.

But now the "credit" seems to fall on her head, which makes her a little uncomfortable.

“Let’s not talk about this for now.

All in all, the situation is not as bad as we thought.

At least there won't be any surprises with the Magic Stone in the short term. "

"That's good!" Harry breathed a sigh of relief, "Let me tell you our current plan. Keep an eye on Snape first."

"Understood!" Ron agreed immediately, "This is easy. He is the one I see the most every day."

Hermione rolled her eyes, but nodded.

“Second, find a way to find out from Hagrid who else was involved in the protection of the Philosopher’s Stone.

If Snape wants to get it, he will definitely find a way to break other levels. If we figure this out, we can understand his progress. "

"Third, it's Hagrid. We have to always pay attention to whether he tells others about the method of passing through Mao Mao."

"Don't forget the fourth point," Hermione reminded, "We have to prepare for the exam."

"Test?"×2.

Harry and Ron looked at each other, and one of them was stunned.

None of them are good students. For them, exams are a necessary hurdle in life and also the most difficult one.

"No way! Hermione." Ron said nonchalantly, "The holidays are just over now, and the exam is still hundreds of years away!"

"Then we have to prepare a review plan." Hermione's tone was unequivocal, "We have already wasted too much time on Nico Flamel.

If I don't cram in the knowledge I learned in class, I might not even pass the final exam. "

"Are you going to fail?" Ron seemed to have heard a big joke. If it weren't for the fact that this was a library, he would have laughed out loud.

Harry also kept suppressing his laughter, "Hermione, besides Aaron, you are the least likely to fail at Hogwarts.

You know everything and don’t need to review at all. "

"I don't need to review?

It seems you have forgotten that Draco and I have a bet!

If I lose, then Aaron will have to pay a favor on behalf of the family.

Although my understanding of the magical world is not as good as yours, I also know how important this kind of bet made in the name of the family is.

Unfortunately, Draco worked extremely hard during this period, and even Professor McGonagall, who was not interested in Slytherin, praised him.

So, do you want to see Draco win? "

Harry and Ron immediately became serious. Malfoy was the person they disliked the most, not even Snape.

If Hermione really lost the battle due to a moment of negligence and allowed him to "get the best of the villain", then they would definitely be particularly depressed before the start of the second year of school.

And if they faced Malfoy in the future, they would be at an absolute disadvantage, because the 'strongest' Hermione on their side had lost.

Thinking of this, both of their eyes were filled with seriousness.

"Hermione, I think what you said makes sense." Harry said, "Studying is the most important thing for students, and we cannot waste it."

"I think so too," Ron said solemnly.

Hermione:......

She worked so hard to talk so much, but in the end, no Malfoy was useful.

In this regard, she could only blame herself for making careless friends.

As a top student, Hermione quickly formulated a review plan for the two of them, generously gave them her own notes, and supervised their studies very carefully.

The teacher also cooperated and gave various homeworks. "Study hard and make progress every day" became the norm in their free time, which made the two scumbags miserable.

But even in the stormy sea of ​​learning, they still devoted most of their energy to supervising Snape... and Hagrid.

...

A few weeks later, the gamekeeper's hut.

Harry, Ron, and Hermione came here to visit Hagrid as usual. This was the eighth time they came to see Hagrid in the recent period.

When they first came to him, they told him straight to the point that they knew that the thing Maomao was guarding was the magic stone. Every time after that, they would 'inadvertently' mention: Has anyone asked about the way to get through the three-headed dog?

But every time Hagrid's answer made them feel particularly reliable, "No one knows how to pass Fluffy except me and Dumbledore, and I will never tell anyone else."

And Snape didn't show anything unusual. He always had a face every day, and sometimes he would be particularly irritable. But the more he acted like this, the more relieved Harry and Ron were.

Because this means that the Philosopher's Stone is still safe and Snape has not succeeded yet.

This time they planned to ask other questions.

"Hagrid!" Harry hesitated for a moment and then asked, "We want to know what other switches besides Fluffy protect the Philosopher's Stone."

Hagrid's face turned serious instantly, "Why are you so concerned about this!

Harry, let me remind you seriously again, this has nothing to do with you. "

"Does that mean there are really other mechanisms?" Hermione asked, "Like spells, magic, etc.?"

"I can't say this, it's a very important secret." Hagrid frowned, "Of course, I don't know either."

"Um..." Hermione pondered for a while, "Then do you know who designed those mechanisms?"

"I do know this, it's..." Hagrid said with a proud smile, and then his face became serious again, "I almost got tricked by you again, Hermione.

It would be very troublesome if I let this slip. "

"But it's not that troublesome!" Harry pleaded, "Please, Hagrid, tell us!

We all know about the Philosopher's Stone, and this is no less important. "

"Stop being like this, Harry." Hagrid pressed Harry onto the chair with a smile, "Ever since I accidentally told Nico Flamel, you guys have become more and more lawless."

"But someone is already trying to steal the Philosopher's Stone." Ron interrupted, "We're sure it's Snape."

Hermione curled her lips and hesitated to speak.

She wanted to say 'not sure', but she didn't say anything.

"Snape?" Hagrid was startled, "I know that almost all Gryffindors dislike him, but this is not the reason for you to doubt him.

And Snape was one of the people who designed those mechanisms, so there was no way he would steal that thing. "

"This is even worse." Harry looked ugly, "This will make it much easier for him to steal.

Hagrid, he really doesn't know a way through Fluffy? "

"I've said it more than a dozen times. No one knows except me and Dumbledore." Hagrid said impatiently.

"Hagrid, you better tell us!" Hermione pointed at Ron and Harry, "You don't think they will give up so easily, do you?"

Hagrid looked at the two of them and saw that their eyes were full of determination. He sighed helplessly, "Okay! But I have a small condition.

Aaron's pet cat Abe, please lend it to me. "
