Hogwarts starts with stealing power

Ron felt insulted by Hermione's remarks against him. He stared at Hermione angrily and stormed out of the Great Hall.

Harry looked at Hermione, then at Ron, and finally chased Ron and ran out.

Hermione fearlessly met the eyes of her friends, mainly Lin Xia, and explained:

"I have no opinion on Ron, and I think I am telling the truth. Many things are not something that everyone can do."

Lin Xia also said patiently and gently: "Hermione, I think your idea is right, but when talking to friends, you also need to pay attention to their personalities. Not every friend can stand straightforward admonition.

In addition, if you observe patiently, you will find that Ron and his brothers do not have a harmonious relationship."

Hermione asked puzzledly: "Should I pay attention to my friend's emotions and belittle another friend?"

Lin Xia was silent for a moment, and whispered: "Of course, there is no need to belittle, but we can change to another more gentle way of speaking."

Draco said at this time: "How about this, I will teach you when you can speak and when you can't speak."

Hermione:?

Draco smiled: "It's really frustrating not being able to tell the truth, and it doesn't seem to be in my nature to speak in a roundabout way. Sometimes I choose not to speak, not to think about these things, and I can feel more relaxed."

Hermione turned to look at Lin Xia and asked: "Lin Xia, do you think I need to learn this course?"

Lin Xia: "If you mean "The Art of Speaking", I think you should."

Hermione said to Draco very straightforwardly: "Okay, then I'll study with you."

Lin Xia noticed that Draco's smile became brighter.

She couldn't help but look at this scene with amusement.

Draco and Hermione? Hermione and Ron?

Emm, eat melons.

…

"Ron, stop, don't run so fast, we're in the wrong place!"

Ron ran forward with his head down, and suddenly noticed a bathroom, so he walked in.

After entering and finding the scene around him, he couldn't help but curse, "What kind of damn luck is this!"

He went into nothing else, but Myrtle's bathroom, which was the bathroom through the secret room.

This bathroom was sealed at the end of last semester. Unexpectedly, it is now open again, but it is still abandoned. The school has not thought about renovating it.

Harry ran over and said breathlessly: "Ron, are you still angry?"

Ron: "Yes, I am still angry."

Harry: "But Hermione..."

Ron shook his head: "No, Harry, I am not angry with Hermione, but with myself. I want to refute Hermione, but damn, I found that Hermione is too right!"

Harry racked his brains to comfort his friend.

"Then you...then you..."

Ron: "I decided to work hard to make money. I can't sell intelligence like my brother. This is not what I am good at, but I can help Lin Xia with research, work in her laboratory, and make money every day."

Harry agreed: "Lin Xia's conditions are very good."

Ron pulled Harry out: "Let's go to class. After class, talk to Lin Xia and ask her to assign more tasks to us so that we can make more money!"

Harry was silent.

In fact, he was not very interested in doing research, but was more interested in alchemical runes. No man doesn't like machinery!

But seeing Ron's enthusiasm, he didn't want to spoil his fun, so he acquiesced.

They ran for a while, but couldn't find the magic elevator. They happened to see the vacant magic staircase.

Ron suggested: "Our first class is divination class. I remember the classroom is on the fourth floor. We can get there by going up two flights of stairs. Why don't we take the stairs?"

Harry had no objection.

But the sad thing was that they encountered the mischief of the magic staircase. When they were halfway there, the stairs suddenly turned, forcing them to go down!

Going down was not the worst. Other stairs took over and went up. Ron continued to walk, but the stairs changed again, sometimes left and sometimes right.

They walked for a long time, but still couldn't see a classroom. They even got lost and didn't know which floor they were on.

Harry was sweating profusely, worried about being late for the first class.

"Ron, let's not take the stairs. Let's find an elevator!"

"Okay!" Ron also regretted taking the stairs.

While the two were looking for a way out, Lin Xia, Draco and Hermione were also heading to the Divination classroom.

Halfway through, Hermione suddenly said, "I left something in the dormitory. I'll go back to the dormitory first. You don't have to wait for me. Go to the classroom first!"

Draco looked at her back and muttered, "Did she leave the divination book "Seeing the World Through the Mist" behind? I saw her take the wrong book when we were having dinner in the Great Hall before."

Lin Xia asked, "What book did she take?"

Draco said uncertainly, "It seems to be a book about the history of the wizarding world. This elective course was also taught this morning. I thought Hermione didn't take the Divination class!"

But Hermione clearly said that she took it and had to go to the classroom with them.

Lin Xia's eyes flashed with a thoughtful look.

She always felt that it was not that simple.

They had just taken the magic elevator to the fourth floor and were about to go to the divination classroom. Lin Xia looked up and saw two little wizards chattering in front of a picture frame in a magic staircase on the sixth floor with her enhanced vision from the supersensory spell.

Lin Xia raised her eyebrows and magnified her hearing. After a while, she heard the conversation between Ron and Harry.

It turned out that they had been unable to find the way to the divination class and were looking for a picture frame to learn the route.

But the protagonist of the picture frame they were looking for was a brave knight who spoke a little crazy.

But fortunately, they still found a way out and ran down quickly.

Lin Xia was about to look away, but suddenly, her eyes stopped and she looked at a place.

It was also a huge picture frame, the picture was blank, but she had clearly seen a man in a black robe just now.

Those bloody narrow eyes, bald head, and only two small red noses, laughing there, with a crazy look.

This is clearly Voldemort!

Lin Xia stared at the picture frame for too long, and Draco felt something was wrong and asked: "Lin Xia, did you find anything?"

He followed her gaze and found nothing.

Lin Xia: "Draco, does Hogwarts have such a rule? What punishment will be imposed for taking the picture frame privately?"

Draco was stunned, and his brain started to work quickly.

"No." After a while, he replied affirmatively, "Hogwarts has no relevant rules for stealing picture frames."

Ordinary little wizards can't do such a thing as stealing picture frames.

What's so good about stealing picture frames?

If it's the kind of picture frame that is responsible for opening the door with a password, it's even more impossible to steal it. The portrait can go to Dumbledore in person to report it.

The portraits are connected, and they can go from one place to another.

A faint smile appeared on the corner of Lin Xia's mouth.

"You go to the divination classroom first. I have to go somewhere first and will be back soon."

Draco's expression changed: "Lin Xia, you are not going to steal the picture frame, are you?"

Lin Xia did not comment: "I just saw one that suits my taste."

Draco: ...

What kind of new bad taste is this?

Lin Xia raised her foot and left, saying without looking back: "In order to avoid getting you into trouble, you don't have to go with me, hurry to the classroom."

Draco stood there for a while and decided to go to the classroom.

At worst, he would wait for Lin Xia to steal it, and then he would go to Lin Xia to see what kind of picture frame it was that Lin Xia would steal?

Walking up the magic stairs, accidents often happen.

But I don't know if these stairs have played tricks on Ron and Harry, so when facing Lin Xia, they are a little uninterested and don't move much.

Lin Xia came to the blank picture frame smoothly.

She looked at it quietly for a few seconds, and was sure that she was not wrong just now.

Lin Xia looked around, and there were also several picture frames around, looking at Lin Xia secretly.

Seeing her looking over, they all hid shyly.

Some of them were shameless and chose to close one eye and open the other, looking at Lin Xia openly, wanting to see what she was going to do.

Lin Xia first walked to the portraits and knocked on their frames.

The portraits also ran away.

Lin Xia quickly came to the frame she liked, waved her wand gently, and the frame automatically left the wall. When she touched it, it was put into the traceless retractable ring.

She thought about it and cast an invisibility spell on herself.

-

In the empty stairwell, there was a slight and rapid "da, da, da...", Ron was startled, turned his head and looked, but found nothing.

Suddenly, it seemed that a gust of wind blew past him, and Ron immediately turned his head and looked, but found nothing.

Ron leaned against Harry tremblingly, and said in fear: "Harry, did you feel that something just passed by us?"

Harry looked confused: "No, I can't feel anything."

Ron took a deep breath, "Okay, I hope I'm overthinking."

On the other side, Lin Xia had entered the Divination course and got out of invisibility.

She just ran into Ron and Harry.

But because Ron looked quite timid, she didn't suddenly appear to greet them.

Draco saw her and whispered: "Did you get it?"

Lin Xia nodded.

She observed the surrounding environment. This classroom didn't look like a classroom at all. It was more like a mixture of a loft and an old-fashioned teahouse, with at least two hundred small round tables squeezed in.

There were printed armchairs and small Zen-like cushions around the tables.

It was really strange.

She actually saw small cushions here. She thought the wizarding world would never use them.

Everything in the room was illuminated by a hazy red light, mainly because the lights here were covered with large crimson scarves, and the curtains were drawn tightly, as if they were extremely afraid of the sun.

There were little wizards whispering around.

"I heard that there was no direct door to this classroom before. If you want to go up, you can only come to a small platform first. There is a round trap door on the ceiling. That is Sybill Trelawney's divination class."

"The little wizards all went up one by one through a silver ladder."

"Because there were too many people signing up for the divination class, the little wizards caused serious traffic jams in the passage, resulting in serious lateness for class."

"Some little wizards are also dizzy and fell down halfway up the ladder."

"That's horrible!"

"Fortunately, this year we can go directly to the classroom."

Lin Xia sat down, and her first reaction was heat.

It was so hot that it was suffocating.

There were many fireplaces here, with blazing flames burning inside, and a large copper teapot on a platform, emitting a strong, disgusting aroma.

There were also many shelves on the round wall, which were filled with dirty feather pens, candle ends, many broken playing cards, countless crystal balls and a pile of tea cups.

With good eyesight, Lin Xia saw the spider webs on it at a glance.

She was eager to move her fingers, but she suppressed her desire to "clean up".

"Thank God, I finally found the classroom!"

Ron and Harry's voices came, their faces flushed, and they ran here on the last train.

The next second, the bell rang.

Draco looked around, but didn't see Hermione.

"Where is the teacher?" Ron pulled Harry and sat next to Lin Xia.

Suddenly a voice sounded in the shadows, a soft, indistinct voice.

"Welcome," the voice said, "It's great to finally meet you in the material world!"

When Professor Trelawney walked into the firelight, everyone noticed that she was very thin, and a pair of large glasses magnified her eyes several times.

She was wearing a thin, transparent shawl with many shining metal pieces, and countless beads and chains hung on her thin and long neck, and many bracelets and rings on her arms and hands.

For a moment, Lin Xia thought of Luna.

This professor's style was a bit like Luna, always liking to decorate herself with something.

It was just because Trelawney was a professor, so no student dared to tell her what to do.

"Sit down, my children, sit down."

Everyone either sat in armchairs or on cushions, and was automatically arranged into groups according to the distribution of tables, and the groups all used the same table.

Ron whispered, "This professor looks weird and weird."

Hermione agreed, "Yeah, I think so too."

Her voice startled the others, and Draco was even more surprised, "Hermione, why are you here?"

Hermione said calmly, "I've been here all along!"

In the center, Professor Trelawney continued to speak, "I'm your Divination professor, you probably haven't seen me before.

I found that often going out to the noisy and chaotic campus life will make my third eye blurry."

She slowly adjusted her shawl, "Since you have chosen Divination, this is the most profound knowledge in all magical arts.

I must say in advance that if you don't have insight, I can't do anything. In this field, books can only teach you a little knowledge."

Lin Xia listened with interest, while other little wizards were surprised, especially Hermione.

Books are actually of no help to this subject?

"Many wizards, despite their talents in the fields of banging, various smells, and sudden disappearance, cannot see through the veil of the future... Believe me, this is a talent that only a few people can obtain." (End of this chapter)
