harry potter book of crimes

To be honest, our Gryffindor trio has been a little uncomfortable lately.

Ever since Maka solved the problem of Voldemort, R.A.'s training gatherings have become a bit loose. It turns out that they have quite a few members, and except for Slytherin, there are people from the other three houses participating.

But now, when the immediate crisis disappears, everyone seems to have lost motivation and goals, and gradually becomes lazy.

But in fact, we can't blame those members who are gradually coming less and less. After all, the final exam is about to come, and there are so many things going on that even Harry feels a little unable to keep up. And everyone knows that R.A.'s activities have started from the beginning.

It is not mandatory from the beginning. This is something that was born out of everyone's needs. It is not a bad idea to say that it is timely.

It was okay when Maka was in school. Having an excellent wizard of a similar age to give her tutoring lessons would always make some motivated little wizards happy.

However, after Maka took a temporary leave of absence these days, the number of people attending was obviously less than last time.

Yes! Harry and the others also know that Valentine's Day is coming soon. Many boys and girls are preparing for that day, revising more quickly when it's time to review, sorting out their outfits when it's time to do so, and even getting together to discuss it.

I confess my plans. Besides, there are more and more homework every night, and everyone’s life is very tight.

"Tell me, when will Maka come back?"

Lunch had just been had at this time, and Harry, Hermione and Ron were all gathered in the common room, packing textbooks to prepare for the afternoon classes.

As usual, Hermione organized quickly. She usually put the whole day's textbooks in her big book bag, and there were even other books mixed in. She had actually started to think about getting them some time ago.

Don't try the Seamless Stretching Spell.

Therefore, she just casually glanced at the class schedule that she had already memorized in her mind, compared it with the one in her memory, and then started to do the after-school homework that most students only started to do in the evening.

Harry and Ron were just like ordinary little wizards. After lunch, they chatted to relieve their appetite and took a break from the busy afternoon.

"Who knows when he will come back?" Ron shrugged, "If you ask me, those guys who took the magic text class are probably praying that he will come back later - whoever asks him to take a leave of absence

Where’s the homework?”

After Harry heard this, he waved his hand quite indifferently.

"Hermione, does Maka have a lot of homework? How many days is it for?" He turned his head and asked Hermione who was lying on the table doing homework.

Unfortunately, Hermione was probably calculating some formula, mumbling something, and ignored Harry's inquiry.

"You'd better not ask Hermione this kind of question," Ron said in a low voice. "Even if she answers you, you can't use it as a reference, right? It's not like you don't know that she will do whatever homework she gets.

I can hand it in to the professor the next day and use it as a reference answer!"

"Except for Defense Against the Dark Arts..." Harry rolled his eyes and added weakly.

It used to be a Potions class, but now it is a Defense Against the Dark Arts class. Any class taught by Snape would make the Gryffindors complain endlessly.

But to be honest, although Snape's Defense Against the Dark Arts class is full of dangers, so much so that everyone has to be on tenterhooks every time they go to class. But it has to be said that he is really teaching attentively.

At least compared to the past potions class, the big black bat is obviously more engaged now. During this time, Harry and the others can feel that their understanding of various dark magic and dark creatures is deepening day by day.

And the methods to deal with them are being forcibly engraved into their heads one after another.

Even if these improvements are obtained in exchange for fright, if you think about it carefully, it doesn't seem worth it.

Of course, hate is hate after all, and Snape's teaching method is basically difficult for people to like. Not to mention the little lions who have been targeted by him, even the little snakes next door are all disliked by him.

I had a miserable face all day long.

After mentioning the Defense Against the Dark Arts class, both of them fell silent. It has always been like this this spring. It seems that no matter what topic, as long as the Defense class is brought up, it will become boring, and there is no interest in continuing the discussion.

will completely disappear.

After a few minutes, Ron changed the topic again.

"Harry, who are you going to spend time with on the 14th? Have you decided?" He thought for a while, then wrinkled his face and said, "When that day comes, I will probably have to stay with Lavender...

...To be honest, I have a headache when I see her now, and I don’t know why I agreed to her back then?”

"'With whom'? With my broomstick!" Harry sighed, "I plan to go to the stadium and fly around all day, and then finish my homework and go to bed early!"

"Hey, buddy, don't be like this!" Ron tried to persuade him first, then hesitantly said, "I'm telling you, Ginny seems to have officially broken up with that instant noodle guy recently - she won't let others talk about it.

It was Lavender who told me when he had nothing to do."

"Uh, Ginny?" Harry looked a little hesitant.

"What's the matter?" Ron said dissatisfiedly, "My sister is the most outstanding girl in the world. There is no girl as beautiful and smart as her in the whole UK! If I didn't know what kind of person you are,

I don’t know how to speak like this!”

"Oh, no -" Harry quickly shook his hand and said, "I know that the best little witch in the world must be right...but, she treats me..."

"I won't mention the past. Let me ask you, do you have to start looking for girls who are interested in you?" Ron curled his lips and said, "The kind of girl who keeps clinging to you is not the kind of girl who is interested in you."

It's not a good choice. Look at me, I almost regret it!"

As the saying goes, "Girls must know how to cherish themselves," Ron has now experienced it personally.

"It's not like you said," Harry said tangledly, "I just... um... how should I put it?"

"You're just shy!"

A voice suddenly sounded from the side, startling the two young boys who were worried about love together. They quickly turned their heads and realized that it was Hermione who had spoken.

"Did you finish your homework?" Harry asked subconsciously.

"It's not that fast!" Hermione said angrily, "This time Maka left a lot of homework, and it's not easy. It can be seen that he has also started to sort out the questions for O.W.Ls..."

Halfway through her words, she paused again and then threw the topic of the course aside.

"... Instead of talking about this, let's talk about what happened just now." Hermione moved her chair this way again, and then frowned and said, "Harry, you want me to see it because you are embarrassed! Don't

Are you eager to deny it? Don’t you just think that this kind of thing depends on fate? But fate also has to be taken initiative to seize. Will it come if you just wait? "

"Eh?" Harry suddenly said, "Oh, yes, it's fate——"

"Come on!" Hermione interrupted him mercilessly and glared at him, "Seriously, if you want to chase girls like you, the girls will have to wait until their hair turns white!"

Harry was a little dumbfounded by Hermione's lecture. He opened his mouth, but found that he didn't know what to say. When he thought about it carefully, he realized that Hermione was indeed right.

In matters like love, if a boy doesn't know how to take the initiative, then it's basically a failure.

"Well, you're right." Harry was silent for a moment, but his expression was still troubled, "But..."

Hermione tilted her head and looked at him, and suddenly asked directly: "Harry, to be honest, what do you think of Ginny?"

Hearing Hermione mention his sister, Ron immediately cheered up and focused his gaze on the face of his good friend.

Although he felt that Harry was definitely worthy of his sister, he always felt a little uncomfortable asking him to bring this couple together. After all, how could he send his precious sister away?

But if these words came from Hermione's mouth, it would seem much more appropriate.

"Of course, she is a very nice girl." Harry said sincerely, "Just like Ron said, she is beautiful and smart, and she also likes Quidditch very much! And... well... she is also very...

pretty……"

"You said 'beautiful' twice!"

Ron couldn't help but interject, but received a glare from Hermione.

"In that case, what reason do you have for not chasing her? Huh?" Hermione spread her hands and then stretched out her finger in front of him, "It's only a few days until Valentine's Day. Before the 14th,

We must find a way to make an appointment with her, do you understand?"

"Do you understand?" Ron repeated from the side.

To be honest, since Ginny was not in school, he already knew that his precious sister had a strong crush on Harry. It was obvious to him that he was caught in the middle of the twists and turns between the two.

My heart was anxious.

Now that Hermione took the initiative to make this clear, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"must?"

Under Hermione's tough tone, Harry felt as if he was tied to a speeding train, unable to even struggle. Of course, maybe he also had a glimmer of expectation in his heart, but it was just that

The expectation was buried so deeply that he was still unaware of it.

"Definitely!" Hermione nodded clearly, acting as if it was a matter of course.

Before Harry could think about it for a while, there was suddenly a burst of busy footsteps in the Gryffindor common room. He looked around blankly, only to find that lunch break had ended unknowingly.
