harry potter book of crimes

Hermione didn't want Delphi to go to London...or to be more precise, she didn't want Delphi to leave the Burrow. Because she always had a feeling that if the other person left this time, he might never come back again.

What's more, with Delphi's current strength, even just sitting here staring out the window in a daze like just now can still bring huge security to this newly established stronghold.

"...You are taking too many risks!" Hermione looked at her and added earnestly, "And, Delphi, we need you."

However, as soon as he finished speaking, Delphi was just silent for a moment, then quickly looked away and shook his head.

"I'm sorry, but in fact, I have already decided to go to London." She lowered her eyes and said softly, "Yes, long before 'Angry'... I mean, before that giant demon came here to attack, I

I already had this idea.”

From the way she subconsciously avoided Hermione's gaze, it might be possible to tell that she actually didn't have the heart to refuse Hermione's offer to stay like this. After all, Hermione's difficulties were not clear to her.

However, even in her "Muggle" state, which had not yet regained its strength, she insisted on joining the team and came to England not to help Hermione and others resist this disaster step by step. And even she at that time was not

In this way, now that she has unexpectedly regained her strength, it is natural not to mention it.

She has her own purposes and ideas, and that's been the case from the beginning!

"So...sorry."

Hearing Delphi apologize again, Hermione's eyes dimmed and she couldn't help but pursed her lips.

By now, she had gained some understanding of Delphi's character of keeping his word, and knowing that since the other party had said so, it was almost impossible for him to change his decision.

After struggling for a while, she seemed to have finally given up, exhaling lightly and saying:

"Then...ok! I understand...but can you at least tell me the truth about the real reason why you want to go to London?"

When Hermione asked this question, her eyes, which were slightly dim just now, suddenly became much deeper. It was as if she had actually vaguely guessed the person hidden in the other person's heart.

Answer.

And in fact, it seems that this is indeed the case.

The next moment, before Delphi could hesitate to answer, everyone present heard Hermione suddenly add another sentence.

"Do you think Maka might be in London now?"

As soon as he finished speaking, almost everyone in the living room had expressions of shock to varying degrees on their faces, and even Delphi couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly.

After a short pause, everyone saw Delphi staring at Hermione and said slowly:

"You think so too?"

As a result, everyone's eyes immediately fell on Hermione again, wanting to hear what she had noticed.

However, Hermione only shook her head slightly.

"It's just one possibility - when those demons left, they all went east one after another, which proves that something must have happened in the east. And when it comes to the east, this topic cannot be avoided in London.

...As for whether it is Haierpo or Maka, or whether the two of them got together again and started fighting, we can only know it by going to see it."

Speaking of this, she changed the subject again:

"But if you ask me if I think it's Maka, then I can only tell you 'I don't think'. Compared with him, it is obviously more likely that Haierbo did something over there in London.

, isn't it? I still remember you said that the giant demon suddenly gave up and left."

"Although it was indeed seriously injured at the time, the reason that made him leave voluntarily was 'something seemed to be calling it from the east' - wasn't it you who told us this detail afterwards?

"

As for anyone who can "summon" demons... apart from Herbo, Hermione can't think of anyone else.

Maca? No, how is that possible!

However, after hearing what Hermione said, Delphi did not continue the topic of this "possibility". She only looked at Hermione quietly for a few seconds, and then spoke again:

"Anyway, I'm going to London."

No more explanations or arguments, just insistence. In this simple sentence, the determination seems to be overflowing, making it difficult for everyone to say anything.

Hermione sighed immediately.

"Even if there is only a small possibility?"

"...Yes." Delphi nodded.

"Okay, I understand. Since this is your decision, I... although I can't say 'support', I will give 'respect', 'admiration', and -"

At this point, Hermione took another deep breath, with a hint of inexplicable emotion in her eyes.

"To be honest, I'm still a little envious."

Of course, what she "respects" is Delphi's right to make decisions, and what she "admires" is undoubtedly Delphi's bravery in facing danger. But when it comes to the last "envy", the hidden meaning behind it is worth mentioning.

People thought deeply.

There is no doubt that Hermione is an amazing girl. For the sake of the overall situation, for the public, and for the safety of many relatives and friends around her, she stood up decisively in this huge disaster. Whether Maka is around or not, she also

It's almost always the smart, brave, kind and selfless Hermione Granger.

When she saw so many people suffering, she couldn't put her personal emotions first, even though she had never let go of her longing for Maka.

So at this moment, she really envied Delphi. Because for some people, it is really difficult to make up their mind to live for selfishness.

In this aspect alone, today's Hermione is somewhat similar to the older Dumbledore.

"'Envy'...?" Delphi heard her say that, but after a slight silence, a smile gradually appeared on his face, "Indeed, I am very lucky. This is a very fortunate thing."

Having the opportunity to come to this era, to be able to see the father that he almost thought he would never see again, and even to be able to work hard for his father's future. For Delphi, is there anything happier than this?

Therefore, even if it costs her own life... or even her "existence", she is willing to do so - she has already realized this.

"I will set off in the evening. But don't worry, I will try my best to help you clean up some living corpses along the way. And... thank you for all the care and help you gave me before."

Delphi finally said calmly.
