harry potter book of crimes

"In fact, life, death and sleep are just terms specially chosen to make it easier for the general public to understand. Everyone who has come here, I believe you have done considerable research on magic. I wonder if any of you know anything about it.

A very special statement..."

Witch Kern said this, looking back and forth between Harry and Hermione not far away, and Luna looked back and forth, and then said in a slightly heavier tone:

"When a wizard was studying the mysteries of our own human bodies, he accidentally discovered a very interesting fact, that is...our body and spirit are actually changing all the time! Even if it is just microscopic.

In an instant, some part of our body dies and is replaced by another new part."

"And similarly," she pointed to her head gently, "our spirit is undoubtedly constantly changing with our daily experiences, environmental changes, and interactions. What we see every day,

What we hear, what we touch, what we think about... will all become elements that affect our will and cognition."

"Because of this, we can grow, mature, and become existences that we ourselves could not have imagined."

Having said this, Kern smiled slightly. That clean and beautiful smile was really amazing. But in this environment, it was difficult for people to appreciate it.

She stood up slightly, raised her chin slightly and looked at the unique magic ceiling of the Hogwarts auditorium above her head. She paused and then suddenly turned around and said:

"Of course, whether it is physical or mental, the changes in a short period of time are usually not big. It is almost impossible to notice if we don't observe and compare carefully... But you think, when our own

Normal changes accumulate as time goes by. When the difference between us in the old days and us now is getting bigger and bigger, can the 'us' of the last moment still be said to be us now? What about the one of the previous day? Above

One year..."

"do not talk!"

Suddenly, Harry interrupted her words with a loud roar.

"Stop using such alarmist words to confuse people here!" Harry suddenly turned around, stared at her and said loudly, "What's the 'new part replacing the old part'? What's the 'we were the last moment'"

Not who we are at this moment'? Do you think that just by living a few more years, you can make us believe it by fabricating this so-called 'research result' that no one has heard of? Don't think..."

"Harry, wait-"

Suddenly, Hermione shouted at the door, temporarily stopping him from breaking out again.

"Harry," Hermione lowered her head slightly and thought again, as if to confirm again, and then said again, "If it is just about the changes in the body, what she said may be true..."

"Hermione!"

Harry turned his head abruptly and looked at Hermione who said this, his expression seemed a little unbelievable.

"Yes, I read it in a book... Because it is a book that needs to be borrowed from the restricted book area, you need to go to Professor McGonagall to apply for a signed note, which is very troublesome, so I shouldn't remember it wrong." Hermione

As he spoke, he paused, then looked at Harry and said, "You seem to have read that book too - it's called "The Book of Jazz". I wonder if you still remember it?"

"Zez...ah!" Harry was stunned for a moment, "You mean, Merlin's magic research notebook?"

"That's it." Hermione nodded and said, "That was what Merlin wrote down when he was studying the blood fusion and physical changes of humans and magical animals...that is, the topic of 'how wizards actively carry out Animagus transformation'

A series of magical notes on experiments and research. I remember that in one of the passages about the adaptive transformation of the human body, a few similar discoveries were briefly mentioned - Merlin made this transformation of the old and new bodies into

The process is called 'replacement of old and new'."

"That's really amazing! I didn't expect that after our time, someone would also observe this." Witch Kern nodded happily and praised, "This level of microscopic detection is not easily achieved... This person

Miss, can you let me read the notebook you mentioned? I am also very interested in research on man-made Dru Yin, which dares to break out of the stereotype."

Artificially created Dru Yin?

Although the word "Druids" was on the cover, as a thoroughly modern witch, Hermione only subconsciously associated the research content in that book with Animagus.

However, after Kern mentioned it, and thinking about some recent changes, she inevitably thought of the awakening of Willy's bloodline.

Shaking her head slightly, Hermione put the matter aside for the time being.

"Ms. Kern," she sorted out her thoughts, and then suddenly looked at the witch Kern again, "I know what you just said, what is the ultimate purpose - you want us to understand that human beings and living corpses

…”

"It's the 'New Human Race'." Kern corrected softly.

"Okay! 'New Humanity'." Hermione said nothing more about this, just nodded and skipped this section and continued, "So what you actually just want to say is that 'that' change is actually the same as ours.

There is not much difference in essence between the 'replacement' and the change of thoughts that we are constantly experiencing every day, right?"

"If I have to say it, the 'difference' is actually quite big." Witch Kern smiled softly again and said, "I just want you to realize that such changes are actually completely acceptable to us.

Don’t you think so?”

After he finished speaking, the auditorium became a little quiet, because at this time, Hermione suddenly stopped talking.

She seemed to be thinking about something, and lowered her head slightly. The ends of her bangs gently covered her eyes, making it difficult to easily tell what she was thinking at this time.

Harry looked a little restless when he saw this.

He undoubtedly trusted Hermione as his partner, and he also believed that she had always been the smartest one among the Gryffindor trio.

But this time, Harry suddenly felt that it would be better if Hermione wasn't so smart, because... the woman named "Kern" in front of him was too evil! His intuition told him that if he wanted to defeat this woman with wisdom, it would be almost impossible.

impossible.

"Hermione—"

"No!"

Just when Harry was about to say something, Hermione, who was concentrating on thinking, suddenly raised her head, and her tone of voice became significantly firmer.

It seems that she wants to understand something.

"Ms. Kern," Hermione said loudly, "As expected, I still cannot fully agree with your views - humans and living corpses are different!"
