harry potter book of crimes

"Miss Ghoul".

Ursula got a new title, a title that didn't seem very polite, but when Luna said it, it had a strange sense of intimacy.

Especially when Luna said that Ursula was her friend, the feeling of closeness became particularly strong.

"Miss Ghoul, I just heard you say that you want Hermione to help you save people?" Luna looked at Ursula who was covered by a big cloak and said, "Oh, if you want to go to England

If so, I think that might not be a good idea. Britain is too dangerous now!"

As she said this, she turned her head and reminded Hermione again:

"Never go back again!"

When Hermione heard this, she couldn't help but pause for a moment, but before she could say anything, she heard Ms. Larson, who was holding Ursula, frown slightly and say:

"Miss Lovegood, the eldest lady is requesting Miss Granger. If Miss Granger refuses, we naturally have nothing to say, but please do not influence Miss Granger's judgment."

Perhaps it was because Luna had greeted Ursula as "ghoul" as soon as she came over. Larson was quite angry about this, so this sentence was obviously said a lot more bluntly.

But soon, Ursula grabbed her arm and said:

"Larson, don't be like this... We are here to ask for help, don't be so rude. What's more, Miss Lovegood's worries are not unreasonable, are they?"

After saying this, she leaned into Larson's ear again and whispered:

"And...it doesn't matter, Miss Lovegood doesn't have any ill intentions towards me. You don't know, in fact, after I woke up from the dream about Safina this morning..."

Ursula whispered to Larson what happened in the morning, trying to make her understand Luna's very special innocence and kindness. At the end of the sentence, Larson's expression couldn't help but soften.

A lot, and the look he looked at Luna was no longer so unfriendly.

But on the other side, Luna obviously didn't care about Larson's change in attitude. Just when Ursula was explaining to Larson, she suddenly continued:

"By the way, I think if you want to save someone, we can send him an extra message when contacting Harry and the others, asking him to pay attention there! Hermione, what do you think?"

"Well," Hermione thought for a moment and nodded quickly, "Based on the existing clues, Safina is most likely being taken to Winchester, and if nothing else happens,

Harry and Mr. Blois' final destination will also be Winchester... Although it is not easy to contact them at the moment, I will find a way."

"Thank you, Miss Lovegood, Miss Granger... thank you."

When Ursula heard this, she quickly thanked her.

"Thank you! Nowadays, we all have to help each other. You know, 'the fate helps those who help each other.'"

Luna smiled happily, pulled Larson and Ursula in her arms, and turned towards the tent in the middle of the camp. Hermione looked behind them and couldn't help but also smiled.

“I don’t know where she got these reasonable-sounding proverbs from.”

After muttering something like this, she took steps to follow.

…

Luna's idea of ​​contacting Harry was indeed correct, but it was obviously very difficult to convey the information to Harry in a short period of time.

Throughout the day that day, Hermione had been in the camp discussing follow-up plans with Percy and others. At the same time, she also spent a lot of thought on how to contact Harry safely and effectively.

Unfortunately, neither matter actually made much progress.

"It's getting dark, you should go back first! You are not in good health right now, and the environment here in the camp is not suitable for you to rest. Go back to Beauxbatons as soon as possible..."

But just when Hermione called Luna and Ms. Larson over and told them to return, the guard who had been running here three times during the day appeared at the door of the tent again, interrupting her.

"Miss Granger, outside... uh, there is another little witch, saying she is your classmate." The guard said, while scratching his scalp in embarrassment, and said with a subtle expression, "

But...she is still just a child, I'm really not sure what she is."

"Okay, okay! I understand. Just wait outside for a moment. I'll come out soon."

Hermione waved her hand, and then continued to say to Luna:

"Remember to use Apparition, or simply use my door key. In short, don't stay on the road to avoid any accidents. Do you understand? Wait after you go back. I should be back soon, at least tomorrow noon, because

There will be a meeting of the Resistance Alliance in the afternoon, and I will definitely have to attend."

"But, can't I stay here with you?" Luna said unhappily, "I'm a little worried about you."

"Oh! Thank you," Hermione patted her shoulder and said, "But I'm more worried about you... Think about it, how many times have you been in the hospital bed since we met until now?"

When Hermione said this, Luna could only pout and said:

"Then...see you tomorrow."

"Well, when I see Ms. Larson tomorrow, please also tell your lady that I will definitely contact Harry and the others as soon as possible. Although... I'm afraid my guarantee won't make her stop worrying."

"No, the fact that you are willing to help so wholeheartedly makes me and the eldest lady very grateful." The maid Larson gave a slight bow and said, "Miss Granger, please be careful in everything."

Hermione nodded at her, then took out a door key from her bag and handed it to them.

"Then I'll go see who's coming outside first, and you should go back with Miss Geofine and Miss Delacour!" She said and walked towards the door of the tent.

As he passed by Larson, he did not forget to add in a low voice, "As for Luna, please remember to pay attention when you have time. Sorry for the trouble."

After saying that, she smiled at Luna again, then hurriedly walked out of the tent and followed the guarding wizard away.

"Miss Lovegood, let's leave quickly!"

Larson undoubtedly agreed with Hermione's point of view. Not only was this place not suitable for Ursula to rest, but also because it was relatively close to England, it always made people feel a little uneasy.

So soon, she urged Luna to go to the smaller tent next door, and hugged Ursula again, who was lying on a camp bed wearing a cloak.

"Miss Delacour, Miss Granger asked us to go back now, we"

However, before she could finish her words, she discovered that someone had appeared in the corner of the tent, standing silently in the shadows.

"who?"
