The weather is very good today. There are no clouds above and around the floating city. It is a good day for traveling and overlooking.
Of course, it’s also good weather for watching the game.
However, Hermione did not walk to the huge arena outside the city early in the morning like others today. Instead, she walked briskly on a street in the city, along the street paved with red maple leaves. Walk towards the food street not far away.
Hermione got the news. It was said that the Stormstout Restaurant in the food court of Silvermoon City on the Floating Island, which was originally destroyed by fire, was finally renovated and opened today.
Of course, Hermione wasn't there to cheer, she was there to find someone.
Or……
Maybe it would be more accurate to use the word 'fishing for people'?
"Harry?"
"Are you in there?"
In short, after several rounds of questioning, Hermione finally saw Harry, a working man who was using magic to wash dishes in the back kitchen of Stormstout Restaurant.
Of course, due to the heavy debt, Harry now had to take care of all the cleaning work in the entire hotel by himself, and was running around for the debt that he might not be able to repay in thirty years, and he was ahead of schedule. A wonderful life of 997.
And, maybe because Harry was so good at rolling, the boss here fired all the dishwashers except him?
Anyway, Hermione didn't see any more helpers here, just the lone figure waving the wand.
"Harry!"
"Great, I finally found you."
"good news!"
"I've got great news!"
Hermione said happily after finding the person.
Because she went to rescue Irena last night, she now made a lot of money, and planned to use part of it to help Harry pay off the debt, and then completely liberate the other party from this busy work that was not so busy. .
After all, Harry is still an honors student at Hogwarts. He got full marks in Defense Against the Dark Arts and has good practical experience. But now, a top student at Hogwarts and a wizard who is about to become an adult... Being reduced to washing dishes in a restaurant like this, something that she couldn't bear to look at, Hermione would definitely have to take care of.
"good news?"
"ah!"
"Hermione, your face, and your hands..."
"what happened?"
At this time, Harry turned around and saw Hermione who still had bruises on her face and hands. He was a little shocked and asked directly with concern.
"ah!"
"It doesn't matter, it will be fine in a few days."
"real!"
"It's just a fight between Irena and I. You know, just like us and Ron, no matter how good of friends we are, there will always be fights, right?"
"But that's not important. That's not why I came here today."
Hermione subconsciously reached out to cover the scars on her face, and then signaled Harry not to ask any more questions. After all, she had other things to do here today, and she was not here to seek comfort.
"Really?"
"All right!"
"Then let's go to the front and find an empty table to talk slowly?"
Harry, who felt that the kitchen was not a place to talk, first looked at the dishes that were being washed automatically under his spell, then felt that it would be okay to leave for a while, so he nodded and prepared to lead Hermione there. Go to the front lobby.
"Say it!"
"whats the matter?"
After finding a place to sit down and picking up the teapot and pouring Hermione a cup of tea, Harry finally had time to rest and asked with relief.
Although he had learned household magic and spells from Mrs. Molly Weasley before, and now he no longer has to do it himself, the work of washing dishes is still a bit laborious for him as a novice, and the consumption of magic power is also a little bit. Some are big and have very strict requirements for fine control, which is not as easy as it seems on the surface.
"Um……"
Hermione didn't speak in a hurry. She first picked up the blue and white porcelain teacup and took a sip, then smacked her lips and put it back gently.
She obviously didn't like that kind of green tea, because although it tasted very fragrant, it was still too bitter. Moreover, she didn't even see that there was sugar or milk to add, so she didn't drink more, but she was just slightly excited. She opened her mouth and talked about the important things that brought her here:
"It's easy!"
"Harry!"
"I got the money. You don't have to go back to Gringotts to move the inheritance your parents left you. We can pay off your debts now, all of them!"
"Then, you can leave here later?"
Yes, this is the reason why Hermione didn't go to the game today, or went for an outing or to look far away, but instead came to her door immediately.
"ah?"
"Debt..."
"this……"
Surprisingly, Hermione originally thought that when Harry heard the news from her, he would jump up with excitement, take off his apron immediately, hug her and cheer and thank her.
For this reason, she was even mentally prepared to push him away.
After all, Hermione doesn't want to have a boyfriend or girlfriend with anyone now, nor does she want to be too close. She just wants to find like-minded friends who are also geniuses to study magic together, so as to strive for success on the road of magic. Going even further, I even hope to pry into the eternal secret.
Just like...
Like some asshole named Irena?
"I……"
"Debts and stuff..."
But now, what surprised Hermione was that after hearing the good news she brought, Harry actually acted coyly and didn't have any joy on his face?
"What's wrong?"
"Harry!"
"Aren't you happy?"
"Or are you saying you don't want to use my money?"
"Do not worry!"
"That's the treasure I found in a desert ruins last night. There are a lot of them. Even if I help you pay off your debt, I'll still have a lot left!"
Hermione said proudly, but she did not tell Harry: At that time, in order to get more, she even fell out with Irena, and that was the main reason for the scars on her face and body. source.
"It's better than this!"
"If you mind..."
"Just think of it as something I lent to you. When you go back and start working after graduation, you can slowly pay it back?"
Although Hermione felt that if Harry didn't use his parents' inheritance, he might not be able to repay such a large amount of money in his lifetime, but it didn't matter, she would definitely not push for this money, let alone go. It doesn't matter what kind of paper or contract is established, or even if the other party doesn't return it to her.
And the reason why she said that was just because she didn't want to put any psychological burden on the other party.
"no!"
"only……"
Harry was still a little hesitant.
Then, after a while, he subconsciously raised his head and looked at the panda girl not far away who was using a notebook to order food and keep accounts for guests in the lobby.
"Um?"
Seeing Harry's expression and movements, Hermione couldn't help but feel curious.
Then, she subconsciously followed the other person's line of sight, looking towards the lobby not far away, and saw the plump and round panda girl at a glance.
"which one……"
"!!"
"No way?"
Finally, Hermione seemed to realize something. Her eyes widened instantly and her pupils shrank. She immediately turned around and looked at Harry in disbelief.
Then she saw that Harry was a little shy and shy, and she had seen that expression on the faces of many crazy men and women at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
So, once again she turned to look at the panda girl not far away, and when she looked back and saw Harry's eyes moving along with her body, her heart skipped a beat, and she was finally sure. Issues.
"..."
Hiss~!
Then, of course, Hermione took a deep breath and realized the seriousness of the matter.
"Ha-Harry!"
"you……"
"Isn't that right?!"
Finally, Hermione's eyes widened, she exclaimed in a trembling, unbelievable and uneasy tone, and started to test carefully.
"Um!"
After a moment's hesitation, Harry gritted his teeth and nodded, knowing what Hermione wanted to ask. His face suddenly turned red.
"!!"
"But!"
"Harry, you have a girlfriend, Fleur, don't you?"
"You have experienced disasters together, you..."
Hermione was about to continue, but was stopped and interrupted by Harry raising his hand.
"What does it have to do with Furong?"
"Hermione, Fleur and I broke up a long time ago. It happened last semester. Ron hasn't told you yet?"
Harry felt a little baffled, but at the same time he looked innocent.
"!!"
"But why?"
Hermione was a little shocked, she really didn't know this.
She has been immersed in the ocean of magic and determined to become an arcane mage like Professor Anne. Therefore, she spent most of her time on magic research and had no time to care about her friends or friends. things.
But no matter what, she only thinks that Furong is very good, so beautiful, so generous, very strong, and her friendship with them is also quite good.
"Then why?"
"Anyway!"
"There are many reasons..."
Harry hesitated for a while, then turned his head. After seeing that the panda girl Cui Cui had gone to work elsewhere, he hurriedly continued:
"After all, Fleur graduated from Beauxbatons School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in France. Before she graduated, she planned to work at the Ministry of Magic in Europe. Then, we fell out."
With slumped shoulders, Harry felt a little regretful, but he had no regrets.
After all, long-distance relationships are too painful.
Moreover, they are not only in a long-distance relationship, they are also in a sister-brother relationship. Also, the other person is getting taller and more beautiful, even a head taller than him. When they stand together, they look different. It was a perfect match, but many people were still saying bad things about him in private. Harry had always been troubled by this, and then the two naturally broke up on bad terms as their conflicts piled up.
"What happened with Furong is already in the past."
"Hermione..."
"You don't know, right? Later, I got close to Ginny."
With his shoulders slumped, Harry saw that Hermione's news was so late, so Harry had to reveal some important things about him.
After all, he doesn't have many friends. Apart from Ron, he only has Hermione. And now, Ron is making trouble with them, so it seems that the only person he can talk to is Hermione. A single seedling.
"!!"
"Ginny?!"
"my God!"
Hermione exclaimed again, and then she was a little overwhelmed and quickly picked up a glass of water, trying to calm down the shock.
"Yes, it's Ginny. She's very nice and gentle..."
"But it's a pity that when Fleur and Bill confirmed their relationship, we started falling out again."
"I think it should be considered a separation, right?"
Unexpectedly, before Hermione could drink the tea in her mouth, Harry made another big revelation of his own as he spoke.
"!!"
puff! !
So, of course, the tea in Hermione's mouth spurted out.
Fortunately, Harry had quick eyesight and quick hands. He flicked his wand, and the tea sprayed out by Hermione hovered in front of his face. Then, he waved it again, and the tea returned to Hermione's hand. in the cup.
"Feel sorry!"
"I just lost my temper..."
After first taking out a handkerchief and wiping the tea on her face, Hermione took a deep breath and began to collect her thoughts.
"That is to say..."
"Harry!"
"First you fell in love with Fleur, then Fleur established a relationship with Bill, then you started talking about being friends with Bill's sister Ginny, and then..."
"Now, you've fallen in love with that Pandaren again?!"
After using clumsy and pale language to connect those complicated relationships and clarify the context, Hermione almost screamed.
She never expected that her good friend Harry, a guy who was usually a bit shy, would have such rich and wonderful relationship experiences?
"Shh!"
"Keep your voice down!"
"Don't let me hear you."
Seeing Hermione lose her temper again, Harry had no choice but to shake his wand again and set a silencing spell directly around the two of them to prevent others from listening to the conversation.
"my God!"
"this……."
Hermione was a little incoherent.
"Merlin..."
"This is crazy!"
Then, Hermione took another tea cup and filled herself with another cup of tea. After drinking the bitter and warm green tea in one gulp, her mood finally calmed down a little.
"Harry!"
"Does Ron know about those things?"
Then, Hermione calmed down and asked carefully.
She felt that if Ron knew that Harry first played with his sister-in-law, and then played with his sister, and finally gave up and fell in love with a panda, he would definitely be angry. Are you going to shoot 'Avada Kedavra' towards Harry?
Of course, maybe not just one, but probably several?
Anyway, Hermione knows that Ron has become very proficient in the killing curse, and even used it to reach the top sixteen. The opponent can now hit the curse quickly, accurately and hard, very fiercely, and the key is Ordinary magic can't be prevented easily. Let alone Harry, even if Hermione herself comes across it, she will probably have to stay away first?
"Part of it?"
"He already knows about Fleur, but he probably doesn't know about Ginny yet."
Harry pondered for a while before speaking firmly.
"I guess……"
"Ginny wouldn't tell him about that kind of thing, right?"
After a pause, Harry, who knew that the matter was indeed serious, began to feel a little uneasy and spoke uncertainly. However, it was not difficult to judge from his tone that he was not sure about what just happened.
"too crazy!"
"Harry..."
"You better pray he never knows!"
"Ron's condition is not good now, he is in danger!"
Although it might not be good for her to speak ill of Ron behind his back, for the safety of Harry's life, Hermione still had to grit her teeth and warn him.
If this matter was known to Ron now, in Hermione's opinion, the friendship between Harry and the other party would definitely be overturned, and it might not be saved!
"But, that Pandaren, have you confirmed your relationship with her?"
"When did you get together?"
After the shock and fear, naturally, Hermione started to gossip a little bit and planned to explore Harry's relationship history and wonder how he could live such a colorful life.
"No, not that fast!"
"only……"
Harry began to speak haltingly.
It turned out that after the fire, he was detained because he needed to repay a debt. Therefore, during this period, the panda girl kept staring at him. After going back and forth, the two gradually became familiar with each other. .
Then, Harry also discovered that although the panda girl Cui Cui was unforgiving, she had a good heart, was very simple, kind, and cute, and she was always thinking of various ways for him.
Slowly, Harry was naturally attracted to him.
"So, you have unrequited love?!"
"But……"
"She's a panda, what's so good about that?"
"How can we fall in love if we are of different races?"
After learning the reason, Hermione was a little confused.
In her opinion, the kind of body that is covered with hair and has a pair of dark circles under its eyes. The key is that its body is as thick as its top and bottom. It is not much different from a panda that walks upright. So it seems that it is not like them. Is it within the aesthetic range acceptable to normal people?
She really didn't understand, when did Harry change his aesthetics?
"What happened to the Pandaren?"
“That’s true love if you’re of different races!”
"I'm telling you, Hermione, these days, I've seen couples here including tauren and high elves, as well as goblins and humans!"
Harry acted matter-of-factly and told what he had seen and heard here these days, while also asking Hermione to give him a look of disdain.
He has read a "Tear-Jerking Romance" from the world of Azeroth. For that protagonist, for that great Paladin Marcus, race is not an issue at all, not even gender, or even life, death, and the other party. It doesn’t matter if you are a human or not!
Harry felt that this was very reasonable, and believed that emotion was the most important thing between people, and that sincere feelings should not be denied based on appearance or race.
"Stop it!"
What about tauren and elves, what about goblins and humans, that kind of picture was too poignant, and Hermione didn't dare to imagine it anyway, so she had to quickly reach out to signal Harry to shut up.
"Anyway!"
"I don't want to take care of those things of yours, and I can't take care of them!"
"money!"
"Do you still want it?"
Finally, feeling that she had had enough today, Hermione hurriedly said, and took out a small wallet that had been casted with a traceless expansion spell and slapped it on the table.
There are gold coins that Hermione prepared for Harry, which should be enough for him to repay the damage caused by the hotel being burned down before.
"of course yes!"
Harry smiled coquettishly and grabbed the wallet in one hand.
"but……"
"Hermione."
"I plan to wait until the time is right to repay that debt. Is that okay?"
Then, Harry asked with a shy face and a sneer at Hermione.
"I don't care about you!"
"Anyway!"
"Harry, take care of yourself!"
Of course, Hermione knew what the other party was thinking. She just wanted to take the opportunity to get closer to the panda girl. Once her goal was achieved, she would probably get away as soon as possible.
But Hermione didn't want to care about that kind of thing, and had no reason to care about it, so after seeing that the matter had been basically solved perfectly, she stood up directly and hurriedly turned around and left with an ugly expression.
She was feeling a little depressed now. She didn't want to see Harry, and she didn't want to have a serious discussion with him about tauren, elves, goblins and humans, or pandaren and humans.
You know, Hermione has never even had a boyfriend, so how can she possibly understand those concepts of love that are far beyond the limits of her imagination and also beyond her racial understanding?
"Hermione!"
"Thank you, I will pay you back when I go back!"
Seeing Hermione leaving, Harry hurriedly shouted to her.
"..."
Unfortunately, at this moment, Hermione didn't want to say anything to him at all, she just waved her hand at him impatiently without looking back.
Then, before Harry could say anything else, she quickly walked out of the door as if she were running away, leaving the Stormstout Restaurant that had been reborn from the ashes.
