harry potter book of crimes

Hermione and Luna saw the carriage, but perhaps because of the fog, they were unable to spot the other figures flying on broomsticks behind the carriage.

In fact, Harry and Neville were among those hidden by the gray mist.

"Tell me, why did Kingsley suggest that the carriage fly directly in the air? It's too conspicuous..." Neville gripped the broom handle tightly and complained to Harry beside him, "And... I really don't

Very good at this."

"Hey! Relax, Neville!" Harry stretched out a hand and patted Neville's arm, "You have to know that the tighter you grip the broomstick, the more sensitive it will be, so when you don't need to turn, just turn.

Relax...yes, that's it, just let it fly in a straight line!"

Ever since his first flying lesson at Hogwarts, Neville had always been confused about these flying broomsticks, and he never made much progress after that.

Yes, in order to become stronger and to satisfy his grandma, Neville made great efforts in various subjects, but flying was the only ability that he could not get corresponding rewards no matter how hard he practiced.

So until today, his flying level only allows him to barely control the general direction in the air.

After slightly loosening his grip on the broom handle, Neville glanced down at him with some palpitations. Fortunately, this time it was thanks to the fog in London that at least his legs were not too tight when he looked down.

Soft.

"Neville, otherwise... why don't you go squeeze in with Her Majesty the Queen in the carriage?"

"No, no need!"

When Neville heard this, he immediately shook his head.

"Being in a carriage is not conducive to escorting. Since I agreed to this mission, I must do it well! And... I actually had a few words with the Queen before you came. She is a very good person,

She even felt that I was too young to risk my life to protect her."

"Oh, really?" Harry nodded and said in understanding, "Okay! So... uh, be careful yourself?"

"Of course, I will."

As Neville spoke, he subconsciously grabbed the broom handle and flew forward cautiously. But because he was too nervous, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and one drop was blown by the oncoming wind and slid towards his face.

In the eye socket.

Feeling an itch on the bridge of his nose, Neville raised a hand out of habit to wipe away the sweat. But as soon as he let go of his right hand, the broom immediately flew up diagonally uncontrollably.

"oh"

"Neville!"

As an excellent seeker, Harry's reaction was quite fast. At that moment, he suddenly reached the end of Neville's broom, and was then dragged high into the air.

"Don't worry...relax! Neville, relax!"

…

"Hermione, look...is there anyone flying behind the carriage?"

On a certain street on the ground, Luna was still staring at the sky covered by fog. The visibility during the day was better than at night, especially since there were probably no clouds today, and the sky looked particularly bright.

"Really?" Seeing that Luna was still studying the carriage, Hermione couldn't help but look up a few more times, "Is there anyone there? Why didn't I look?"

As she was speaking, she suddenly noticed that two black spots vaguely appeared behind the carriage with the Ministry of Magic emblem, and they suddenly jumped out of the thorns.

Although the flight path was winding and winding, it was generally closer to them.

"Ah, I think I saw it too...two wizards riding broomsticks?"

Because the distance was still too far, the two people were too small compared to the size of the carriage, and were not as clearly distinguishable as the latter. Hermione followed the team forward, while squinting for a while, and her left hand naturally

I touched my body.

"Oh! I forgot that I had lent Harry my bag. It has the telescope in it."

"Telescopes? The kind you use to watch Quidditch games?"

Luna raised her neck, watching the two figures in the sky rise and fall, and then suddenly turned around and flew downwards. When she saw this, she immediately said:

"Look, no need for telescopes!"

While they were talking, they saw Neville and Harry flying closer and closer to here, and soon they were over the evacuation team here.

"It's Neville...and Harry!"

Luna didn't need to say anything this time, because Hermione also saw the appearance of the two figures clearly at the same time. Immediately afterwards, she and Luna heard Harry's shout in the air:

"Neville...calm down! Relax...oh! Hermione? Help...help..."

Listening to Harry's voice first moving from far to near, and then from near to far, Neville dragged Harry and flew over the heads of Hermione and Hermione.

Perhaps it was because it was so fast, and Harry was being carried flying from the very beginning, so that even if he wanted to help Neville stop, he couldn't.

Harry knew very well that if he was not careful at this time, both of them would fall.

"what to do?"

Hermione was also in a bit of a dilemma. She had already pulled out her wand, but she didn't know which spell to use. First, block them with a barrier spell, and then add a levitating spell to them?

No, Harry and Neville were flying too low now, and she was afraid she wouldn't be able to cast the two spells in time.

But at this moment, Luna, who was standing next to her, also took out her wand, looking quite eager to try it.

"Luna, wait! Do you know how to make them stop?"

"Well?"

Luna held her wand and shook her head at Hermione.

"I don't know? I just think... it seems funny to play like that?"

After hearing this, Hermione couldn't help but hold her forehead and said:

"Oh, Luna...Harry and the others are not playing, okay?"

"Is that so?" Luna blinked, and then said as if she understood, "Okay! But...well, do you want them to come down? This is actually quite simple!"

Having said that, under Hermione's puzzled eyes, Luna suddenly raised her wand and pointed it in the air.

"Thump thump to the ground!"

"What?"

When Hermione heard this inexplicable and strange spell, she couldn't help but look up. Immediately, she saw that Neville's remaining broomstick seemed to have suddenly lost power, and it suddenly fell to the ground together with Neville and Harry.

Among the teams in front.

"Luna! You...what did you do? They will fall to death!"

"Huh?" Luna said briskly immediately, "Didn't I demonstrate it to you at breakfast time before? My magic spell won't really hit anyone!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Hermione heard the voices of Harry and Neville coming from the crowd in the commotion ahead of them almost at the same time.

"What just happened? Why...I wasn't hurt?"
