Hogwarts Homecoming

Eight in the morning.

In the past, at this time, it was the peak time for young wizards and teaching staff in the school to go down to the auditorium to eat, but yesterday's fierce and wonderful Quidditch match made most of the young wizards in the four colleges lose sleep, especially Ge Ryffindor, they spent almost all night celebrating their house's qualification for the championship.

The faculty and staff were also tormented by what happened in the middle of the night last night. On this rainy morning, even a few professors who had always been hardworking were catching up on sleep in their dormitories.

Madam Pomfrey, who had been busy for most of the night, was also resting in her room. Harry, who had no mood to sleep, slipped into Ron's ward early in the morning. After seeing a face that looked pretty good, the two A little guy knocked on Hermione's room again.

And Hermione's spirit didn't look so good, she was leaning on the pillow, her fluffy hair was a bit messier than usual, and her eyes were bloodshot, as if she hadn't closed her eyes all night.

"You are simply unreasonable!"

When he saw the tome spread out on Hermione's lap, Ron's cheeks puffed up in surprise, with gauze wrapped around his head.

"After so many things happened, you still have the mind to read?"

In the middle of the night last night, everyone who participated in the duel with the werewolf was notified. Peter has been arrested and brought to justice, and Sirius has been taken into custody by the Ministry of Magic. Before the Wizengamot trial is over, everyone will This matter must be kept secret.

However, Ron, who did not participate in time travel, did not know the details of Peter's arrest. When Harry explained the matter clearly at a fast speed, Ron's bulging cheeks shrank, but his mouth opened well. big.

"I was wrong about such a funny thing, oh shit, you guys should have woken me up, time travel. God, how many wizards can go through this in their lifetime?"

"interesting?"

Harry smiled reluctantly,

"If you'd met Hagrid's spider friends in the Forbidden Forest, Ron, I bet you wouldn't say that. I'd never let a spider come near me in my life."

Now, they all knew why after experiencing so many things last night, Hermione didn't just lie down on the bed and rest, but made a special trip to the library with Harry's invisibility cloak.

"I can't imagine!"

Hermione finally reacted now, she held her face in her hands,

"If my parents knew that I would face prosecution by the Ministry of Magic, or even be imprisoned in a wizarding prison, how would they feel!"

There was a strong cry in the voice of collapse,

"I have checked many laws. The Time Converter is a magic item strictly controlled by the Ministry of Magic. If I can't give a reasonable reason for its damage, the Ministry of Magic will definitely not let me go!"

"But--"

Hearing that Hermione might be thrown into prison for playing tricks on the magical little hourglass, Ron no longer regretted that he didn't experience the second half of the wonderful adventure. He said dumbfounded,

"You were doing this on Dumbledore's orders, weren't you, he—I mean, he certainly wouldn't be watching!"

"But the problem is—"

Harry has obviously thought about this question, he said with a sigh,

"Although he reminded us. But we can't talk about it can't we. I mean, we're in serious breach of the law, but how do you talk to the Ministry of Magic, all the uses of Time-Turners Among them, the arrest of criminals must not be included, right?"

Ron frowned, thinking hard,

"Maybe. I can write to Dad. You know, he has a lot of acquaintances in the Ministry. Maybe he can give us a good suggestion. Of course, the premise is that this thing called a converter is not particularly expensive."

Just when the three little guys were frowning because of the damage of the time converter, the sudden conversation in the hall of the school hospital outside made the three of them shut up.

"...Just a few minutes, I came to see how everyone is doing, Ms. Pomfrey—"

"They're doing very well, Professor Blaine,"

Immediately, Madam Pomfrey's annoyed voice sounded,

"The only thing they need now is not to be disturbed and to take a good rest, just like me!"

"It's Professor Blaine!"

Harry turned from the edge of Hermione's bed with a swish, and said excitedly,

"Like I said last night, Hermione, Professor Blaine is good at fixing things, if he can help you!"

Professor Bryan was able to support Ron's broken wand for a while longer, and he also restored Harry's Nimbus 2000, which had been beaten into pieces, and although it couldn't fly anymore, it gave It is no problem for Quidditch beginners to experience the feeling of flying.

"That's a good idea." Ron nodded emphatically, "There doesn't seem to be anything he can't do."

Hermione didn't care about anxiety anymore, she threw off the quilt and quickly jumped off the bed, rushed to the door and opened the door in a few steps.

In the hall, Professor Brian, who was arguing with Madam Pomfrey, foresaw the movement before the door opened, turned his head, and showed a warm smile to the panting Hermione,

"You don't look very good, are you having a nightmare?"

To be honest, Harry was a little resentful towards Professor Brian, because he knew the truth about his parents' murder before Christmas, but he didn't reveal a word to him, but he forgot about it immediately Dumbledore told him what happened in the Forbidden Forest like crackling beans.

Amosta has been quietly listening to those thrilling experiences, until he finished speaking, he smiled affirmatively at Harry,

"Well done, you three. Especially you, Harry, your parents must be proud of you. You and Hermione caught Peter, the traitor. There is no doubt that this is tantamount to doing your own Mom and Dad took revenge."

Harry grinned, but then his face burned again,

"Professor, Professor Lupine ended up getting lost in the Forbidden Forest. Professor Dumbledore told us that he will be fine, but he has no whereabouts of him!"

"Oh, about this--"

Seeing that the three little guys were still in a stable state of mind, he straightened his robe and stood up from the stool.

"Don't worry, Professor Lupine is currently receiving treatment at St. Mungo's, and his condition is fairly stable. The only problem is that he may not be able to teach your Defense Against the Dark Arts class anymore.

However, this is also a good thing for him. If I really let him finish the second half of the year, I can't guarantee that it will save the cough. I mean, if something more serious accident happens to him. "

Seeing that Professor Brian intended to leave, Harry didn't say anything, and gave Hermione his precious time.

"That's right, Professor—"

Hermione listened carefully to the movement at the door, and after confirming that no one broke in suddenly, she turned her head and rubbed the tarnished Time-Turner under the pillow, and bit her lip and handed it to Professor Bryan,

"Professor, this Time-Turner. I don't know why, but it broke apart after last night. Lost function-"

Hermione said with a twitch of her shoulders,

"I'm afraid I'm in big trouble. The Ministry of Magic has very tight control over the Time-Turner. They're sure to get to the bottom of it. Find out what I'm doing with it."

"Can you fix it, Professor Blaine!"

Seeing Professor Brian taking the converter from Hermione and playing with it in front of his eyes, Harry couldn't help but interrupt.

"I'll figure out a way to fix this—"

Professor Brian gave a very strange answer. He didn't tell them whether he had the ability to repair the time converter, but only said that he could solve this problem, and he took the broken time converter away.

However, with Professor Blaine's guarantee, all three of them breathed a sigh of relief, as if they were not worried at all that Blaine would not be able to keep his promise.

"Speaking of which, Professor Lupine is actually a werewolf—"

Ron gasped and shivered,

"This is terrible, Dumbledore always likes to do such unexpected things."

"He's safe, Ron—"

Harry retorted,

"Since all the professors know the identity of Professor Lupine, it is enough to prove that he is harmless. He is a friend of my parents like Sirius. He never wanted to harm us-"

"I know--"

Ron muttered,

"But you've all seen what a werewolf looks like when it goes crazy. Seriously, I think Professor Blaine is right, it's a good thing for everyone to leave"
