If possible, Harry would rather never discover the correct way to read the notebook in his schoolbag, so that he would not have to face the headaches facing him.
"Riddle may have the wrong person,"
Many times, Hermione's expressions are surprisingly similar to Professor McGonagall's, or it can be said that the two of them are the same type of Gryffindors. For example, right now, Hermione's pursed lips look very much like Professor McGonagall's Transfiguration. In class, we saw the expressions on Seamus's face after he exploded again, or Neville hurt himself again.
"Maybe it's another monster that's causing harm..."
"How many monsters do you think this place can contain, Hermione?" Ron asked listlessly.
Harry could completely understand Hermione's feelings of trying to defend Hagrid, but I'm afraid even she herself couldn't believe the flimsy excuses she came up with.
"I should have thought that this would have something to do with Hagrid..." Harry stared at the crackling fireplace with a melancholy expression.
"Remember, Ron, during the Christmas vacation, when Hagrid knew that Professor Blaine had returned to school as the investigator of the Chamber of Secrets incident, I felt something was wrong..., but I thought that Hagrid just knew Some secrets about the Chamber of Secrets.”
All three of them fell silent. After a long silence, Hermione still raised the most difficult question.
"Do you think we can ask Hagrid about these things?"
"That will surely be a pleasant visit," Ron said with a pout.
"What should we ask, Hermione? Should we say to Hagrid - Hello, Hagrid, tell us, did you release some wild, furry monster from the castle last term?"
There was another oppressive silence, but this time it was Harry who broke it.
"At noon today, Professor Brain said that he went to visit Hagrid..., but as far as I know, there is no good relationship between them."
"But the truth is, Professor Brain didn't arrest Hagrid, did he?"
Hermione frowned and analyzed
"Perhaps this can prove that Hagrid is innocent...And, Harry, don't forget that it was Principal Dumbledore who kept Hagrid in Hogwarts. If Hagrid really--"
"Dumbledore was a great and kind man, Hermione, we all know that!"
In the face of the ironclad truth, Hermione's feeble persistence made Ron feel distressed, and he said with an increased tone.
"No one thinks that Hagrid deliberately murdered that unfortunate girl fifty years ago, but the problem is, sometimes he just can't understand the danger of those big furry monsters!"
The discussion on this issue did not reach a clear conclusion.
Hermione thought that since Professor Blaine might already know that Hagrid was related to the Chamber of Secrets case fifty years ago, she might as well give the notebook to Professor Blaine. In this case, maybe he could communicate with the contents of the notebook. Riddle confronted him.
But this proposal was undoubtedly strongly opposed by Harry, and the reasons he stated made Hermione unable to refute it.
"I would never give my notebook to Professor Blaine, Hermione,"
Harry said with an annoying expression, "Think about it, if Professor Blaine doesn't know about this at all, it would be equivalent to us personally sending Hagrid to the wizard prison that Malfoy said... You want me to use Are you going to spend the rest of your life repenting of this, Hermione?"
.........
Because last week's letter had not been completely resolved, at around one o'clock on Sunday afternoon, when Amosta opened Professor Lockhart's office in advance, which had been dusty for a week, the white wave gushing out from inside almost broke his body. After being buried, there was no place in the entire office where anyone could stand.
"We can only change places, everyone!"
Amosta climbed out of the wave of messages and looked helplessly at Hermione, who suddenly became as reserved as when they first met, and behind her, Harry and Ron, whose eyes were clearly filled with thoughts.
In the end, Amosta had no choice but to donate his office.
Hermione and Harry had both been to Professor Blaine's office, but this was the first time Ron walked into Mr. Investigator's office. He looked at everything here curiously. Of course, the focus of his attention was on the side that was blocked by the curtain. Live surveillance walls.
"This is the one..."
Ron glanced at the surveillance wall with a little awe and asked Harry in a low voice. Before Harry could answer, he was stopped by Hermione with a stern look.
Seeing this scene, Amosta smiled. He waved his magic wand, opened the curtains, openly showed this magical wall to the three of them, and joked,
"You may still need to be secretive to others, but you three have obviously figured me out, right?"
The three of Harry laughed sheepishly, and then, with Professor Brain's permission, the three of them took a good look at the 'Hogwarts on the Wall'. Of course, Harry and Ron just looked at it. It was so exciting that only Hermione had some clues.
"I probably won't be able to cast such a profound transformation spell in my lifetime..."
At the end of the visit, Hermione said with a disappointed look on her face.
"Don't underestimate yourself, Miss Granger. You are very talented in magic. If you keep a humble attitude towards learning, one day this will not be a problem for you!"
In order to avoid interfering with the subsequent work, Amosta closed the surveillance wall again, and when he turned around, he found that even the tips of Miss Granger's ears were red after being praised.
Even if the number of people doubled, it was still a boring and painful task to help Lockhart write replies to fans. Amosta was still working hard. In the end, he was not even willing to write two words with a quill, and He waved his magic wand to control the pieces of letter paper to float over, letting the quill write and draw on them, while he himself studied the manuscript with relish.
Seeing this scene, Harry and Ron hated it, but they didn't have the guts to follow suit.
Time gradually passes, and the sun sets in the west.
When it was time for dinner, Amosta sneaked out for a while on the pretext of helping them go downstairs to get dinner. When he came back, there was a lot of letters left when he left, but there was actually a section missing. In the office, Hermione was angry. Staring at Harry and Ron, Amosta smiled, probably understanding what happened.
"Let's take a rest first, gentlemen and ladies, there is no need to rush."
Professor Blaine has almost no airs when chatting with others. You may even forget that he is a professor and investigator, but more like a senior at Hogwarts. This allows Harry to find the courage to express his inner feelings. Doubts come to the mouth.
"Professor Brain, you visited Hagrid yesterday morning?"
Harry acted nonchalantly, trying to make his question more like an inadvertent mention in casual conversation. However, his clenched fists and Hermione and Ron who suddenly remained strangely silent told Amosta, This is undoubtedly a question that has been carefully prepared for a long time.
