  Chapter 1220 Want to break up

   "I hate apparating."

  Harry sat on the armchair with a depressed face, reached out his hand to take out the pressed "Daily Prophet" from under his buttocks, and sighed softly, "I didn't expect it to be more difficult to grasp than expected."

Even though the three of them had been taught by Lupine and Sirius during the holidays, their progress in learning Apparation was still not much faster than other students, which made Harry a little worried whether he could completely master Apparation before the end of the semester Appear.

   "At least your progress is much faster than mine, I just split up!"

  Ron still had lingering fears about the experience of splitting his body just now. Among the three of them, Hermione learned the fastest. They can already apparate, but they can't use it skillfully.

"You should concentrate on learning Apparation, so that the progress will be much faster." Hermione felt that Harry and Ron's learning progress was slow. The progress is much slower than Hermione's. "

   "Not everyone is like you. Apparition is really difficult." Harry noticed that something was wrong with Hermione, raised his eyebrows and asked, "What's wrong?"

   "Hey guys, watch this."

  Hermione handed Harry the "Defense Letters" magazine in her hand, and the latter looked surprised after seeing the contents.

   Ron also hurried over, also a little surprised.

"Defense Letters" actually clearly pointed out that the mysterious man and the Death Eaters completely hated Albert, and seemed to plan to attack those friends who had attended Albert's wedding in an attempt to find Albert who was hiding, and kill it.

   However, this conspiracy seems to have been unsuccessful. The Weasley brothers hid, Digory and Truman also escaped smoothly, and cooperated with the Ministry of Magic to successfully arrest a group of dark wizards, causing heavy losses to Voldemort's minions.

  At the end of the article, Sirius did not forget to remind friends who have a good relationship with Albert to be vigilant and avoid being affected by innocent people.

   "It's clearly true."

Hermione tapped the article in the magazine with her finger, and analyzed it to Harry and Ron: "Sirius published this matter just to make other people vigilant, and to deter the Death Eaters by the way, lest they continue to stare on the others."

   "Albert is very good at motivating hatred." Harry muttered.

   "Luo Luo, your letter!"

   Lavender appeared out of nowhere, and suddenly squeezed between Ron and Harry, and stretched out his arms around Ron's neck, and already brought his lips together.

   "Hey, Harry, everyone wants to know when you will hold the DA party again." Parvati pretended not to see what her friend did just now, and greeted Harry with a smile.

   "Wait for Lavender, I have to read the contents of the letter first." Ron was quite helpless, but Lavender had already kissed him, completely blocking his mouth.

  Hermione bent down to pick up the envelope that fell on the floor, turned her head to Harry who was standing and said, "There's an empty table over there, shall we go and sit there?"

   "Oh, good." Harry nodded.

"The Apparation just now was awesome, I think you will be able to fully grasp it in a short time." Parvati was about to say hello to Hermione, but was shocked to find that the other party had opened Weasley's letter directly and told Harry Read the contents of the letter together.

   "We have been exposed to Apparation before, so it is normal to learn it a little faster than everyone else!" Hermione handed the letter to Harry, explaining to Parvati the reason why she could quickly master Apparation.

   "Quicker?" Parvati muttered, "It's not just faster."

   "Ahem, I suggest you also concentrate on studying, try to master it within this semester, it may come in handy." Hermione quickly exchanged glances with Harry, and put the letter paper back.

   "What was written in the letter?" Ron, who broke away from Lavender, couldn't help asking.

   "Fred and George are going to hide for the time being, and I plan to ask you for a little help." Hermione handed the envelope to Ron and said, "They said they have prepared a generous reward for you."

   "You peeked at Rollo's letter." Lavender looked at the opened envelope, and was very surprised by Harry and Hermione's actions.

   "This thing is not considered a personal letter. It is marked on it, and most of the time it is actually addressed to Harry." Ron glanced at the special symbols on the envelope and explained to the stalking Lavender.

   To be honest, Ron is a little annoyed by this clingy woman in front of him now, who is wrapped around him like an octopus, making him feel suffocated.

   "What is not a personal letter?" Lavender asked with a frown.

   "There are some things you'd better not know." Ron couldn't help but frowned. "Knowing too much is not good for you, and it may cause you to be targeted by Death Eaters and lose your life."

   "Then why can she know." Lavender pointed at Hermione and asked sharply, which surprised everyone around her.

"Oh, that's because it's too late for some things. Ron and Hermione have already been involved because of my relationship, and they will definitely participate in this wizard war next." Harry interjected awkwardly: "So, Ron is actually doing it for your own good, lest you be targeted by the Death Eaters one day, and they will search your memory or torture you with Veritaserum."

  Hearing Harry's words, Lavender and Parvati were stunned for a moment. Although the Second Wizarding War had already begun, it was still very far away for the students living in Hogwarts.

  Some of the students around who had their ears up to eavesdrop also opened their eyes wide, surprised to hear Harry say such a thing.

"You know, Voldemort wants to kill me, and I can't hide in Hogwarts forever. Think about Albert, Voldemort just wanted to kill him, and it affected his friends." After Harry finished speaking, he greeted Herr Min and Ron left, leaving behind a group of people who were stunned to hear the name "Voldemort".

   "Harry, you shouldn't have used that name casually." Hermione looked at Harry reproachfully, as if the other party had made a fatal mistake.

   "But even if I use the honorific title, it can't change the fact that Voldemort wants to kill me." Harry shrugged and said helplessly.

"You know that's not what I'm talking about. You-Know-Who's name is taboo. There's a reason. That guy put a curse on his name. Once you use it, the Death Eaters will follow the magic. ’” Hermione warned sternly, she found that Harry had a bad habit of directly addressing You-Know-Who by name.

   "You have to admit that their trick is amazing." Ron couldn't help complaining, "Even a ruthless person like Anderson never directly used that name to call him."

   "Okay, I'll try to change it as much as possible." Harry changed the topic and looked at Ron, "What are you going to do?"

   "Accept it, what else can I do, I'm a fool if I don't make money with Galleons."

  Ron is quite satisfied with Fred and George's proposal. This is the first time he has experienced what it feels like to make money easily, which is simply great.

   "Be careful of being caught by Filch." Hermione reminded with a frown, "Don't forget that you are a prefect, if you are found out, you will definitely be locked up severely."

   "As long as you don't get caught by Filch." Ron didn't put Filch in the slightest. "Don't forget, that guy is a squib. You can easily hide it from him by using the Disillusionment Charm."

   "As long as you're happy." Hermione didn't bother to care about it, she turned to Harry and said, "Professor Slughorn has a party recently, do you plan to attend?"

"when?"

  Harry used to be completely indifferent to slug parties, but now he has to spend some time paying attention to these nasty things.

   "This Friday." Hermione said without thinking.

"Hermione, can you help me think of other topics, I feel like I can't continue talking." Harry asked Hermione for help, and after getting along with him for a while, he found that Professor Slughorn was a bit difficult to deal with , "Perhaps, I should seriously consider using Albert's method."

   "But does that really work?" Hermione was skeptical.

   "We can't do it any better, can we?"

  Although the method provided by Albert is a bit ruthless, it is better than staring blankly.

"Maybe, you can try to talk to Professor Slughorn about the Wizarding War first, so that he can have a mental preparation first, and doesn't Albert want to invite him to be a potion consultant? You can try to learn from this matter." Get it." Hermione used her brains to think of a way for Harry.

"That's a way, but I can't expect everyone to be Dumbledore." Harry really didn't expect Professor Slughorn to focus on the overall situation, otherwise the other party would have given that memory to Dumbledore, Instead of becoming the homework assigned to him by Dumbledore.

   "You can always think of a way, not to mention you have Felicia." Ron didn't think Harry would fail.

"Felix is ​​not a panacea, but Ron is right, everyone has their own weaknesses, and Professor Slughorn is no exception, he can always find a way." Hermione also has confidence in Harry, " Don't forget, when Dumbledore entrusted you with this task, he must think that you can complete it."

   "You guys are always more confident than me." Harry laughed at himself.

  Since learning about Voldemort's secrets with Dumbledore, Harry has thought about a lot of things and realized the burden on his shoulders that needs to be acknowledged.

  If the Horcruxes are not completely eliminated, Voldemort cannot be completely eliminated.

  He actually understood why Albert only troubled the Death Eaters, but never confronted Voldemort head-on.

  Because it is meaningless to target Voldemort when Voldemort cannot be killed, and continue to weaken the power around Voldemort, more to prepare for the future against the mysterious person.

   At this moment, Lavender caught up from behind and entangled Ron directly, as if he had something to say to him.

  Harry and Hermione looked at each other, tacitly leaving a space for them to communicate alone.

   "By the way, Luo Luo's birthday is coming soon, what birthday gift do you plan to give him?" Harry asked casually.

   "Don't use that tone, it sounds disgusting." Hermione curled her lips and asked, "What do you think of "The Origin of Quidditch?"

   "Very good, then I'll also give you a Quidditch-related gift." Harry thought for a moment, and quickly chose the most suitable gift for Rollo: Quidditch goalkeeper gloves.

  The two finalized the birthday present for Ron in this way.

   "We might need someone to help, though," said Harry. "I think it's better not to be too public, lest someone mess with the mail package."

   "Go to Ginny, or Hagrid if you can't." Hermione suggested, "I'll find time to talk to Ginny tomorrow."

  The next day, Harry woke up early, left the dormitory early, and waited for someone in the common room. After seeing Ginny coming down from the girls' dormitory, he hurried forward to greet her.

   "Hi, Ginny."

   "Harry, what's the matter?"

  Ginny was surprised that Harry took the initiative to find her.

   "Did Hermione tell you about that?" Harry asked tentatively.

   "What matter?" Ginny was a little confused, obviously not understanding what Harry said.

   "Oh, then you don't mind if I waste a few minutes with you, I want to ask you something." Harry pointed to the corner of the common room, expressing the hope that he could chat alone.

   "Oh, no problem."

   Ginny followed Harry over there to chat alone, leaving behind a group of envious female companions.

   "It's like this." Harry said straight to the point, "Hermione and I plan to buy Ron a birthday present, but our current situation is really not suitable for showing up to reduce the possibility of being targeted by Death Eaters."

   "So, you want to ask me to help you with owl mail order." Ginny asked with a complicated expression. She thought Harry was looking for something for her, but that's it?

   "Yes, we hope you can help with purchasing." Harry looked at Ginny expectantly.

   "Okay." Ginny nodded in agreement.

   "That's a big thank you, here's the list of items that need to be mail-ordered, and here's the cost."

   As he spoke, Harry took out a note and handed it to Ginny, plus a small purse, which contained Gallon who had purchased "The Origin of Quidditch" and Quidditch goalkeeper gloves.

   "By the way, remember to keep this matter a secret from me, and don't let Ron know." Harry walked away gratefully.

"I will."

   Ginny glanced at the note Harry gave, and stuffed it into his pocket along with the money bag.

   "What did Harry want you for?" Dean popped out of nowhere.

   "Are you curious?" Ginny raised her eyebrows slightly.

   "I'll just ask casually."

   "Harry asked me to help him buy something." Ginny didn't hide anything, "They are being targeted by Death Eaters, and if they buy it themselves, they may cause trouble, so let me help him buy something."

   "Buying things, but Death Eaters really know..." Before Dean finished speaking, Hermione's voice was heard.

   "Ginny, I have something to ask you."

   "Oh, Harry called me just now." Ginny took out a note from her pocket and showed it to Hermione, "He said please buy me something."

   "Oh, then this matter will trouble you, remember to keep it a secret from Ron." Hermione returned the note to Ginny, said hello to Dean, and walked away.

   "Here, you should believe it now."

   Ginny handed the note Harry gave to Andy, and said impatiently.

"I did not mean that."

  Looking at the contents of the parchment, Dean was a little embarrassed, because just like Ginny said, Harry just wanted to ask her to buy something for Ron.

   "I'm just a little worried... Will you be in danger this way." Dean changed the subject awkwardly.

   "It's nothing at all, and..." Ginny said proudly, "My family has always been fighting against the mysterious man, always standing on Dumbledore's side, and always supporting Harry..."

   "But, you are still underage, those are too dangerous for you." Dean said with some anxiety.

   "Are you scared?" Ginny raised her eyebrows slightly.

   "No, I'm just... afraid you'll get hurt." Dean carefully chose his words.

"I'm not afraid."

   Ginny tossed her hair, turned and walked away.
