In This Hogwarts Without a Savior

"I worked in a bookstore during the summer vacation. It was a very old bookstore, and the owner was very kind to me." Hermione said, "There were a lot of banned books hidden in her store, and I saw one in them. I read a banned book called "Hogwarts: A School History" and peeked at part of the contents, knowing that the former Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry was not what it is now."

"The shop owner also subscribed to the Daily Prophet. I accidentally saw on it that there was actually another Hogwarts school in the wizarding world that was exiled under the leadership of Dumbledore. The news said that this They are the only remaining resistance and insurgents.”

"I know that Dumbledore was the only principal of Hogwarts seven years ago. The magic school he led was a real school. However, he failed later and the castle was occupied by another person. , we will be enslaved like this.”

"You disguised yourself as Randy and lurked into the castle. The only person who had the guts to do this was someone from another Hogwarts school in the entire wizarding world. No one else would dare to take such a risk. .”

Hermione's voice was very small, but so firm. She looked at Jon, her eyes were clear and bright.

"Besides, I can see your attitude towards people like us. If they were pure-blood wizards, they wouldn't get along with us like this at all. You must be from another Hogwarts, right?"

Jon looked into the girl's eyes and sighed in his heart.

All the speculations are reasonable, and the most important thing is that Hermione is really only 12 years old now, instead of looking like a 12-year-old child like him, but actually having the soul of an adult inside.

In such a situation, Jon calmed down. Faced with Hermione's question, he did not deny it, but nodded and admitted it.

"Yes, I do come from another Hogwarts."

Her suspicion was confirmed by Jon himself, and Hermione suddenly became excited.

After all, she is still only 12 years old. Even though her observation and logical reasoning are far superior to those of her age, she is still not as mature as Jon in her mind.

"Are you a professor at Hogwarts?" She couldn't wait to ask.

Jon only hesitated for a second and nodded without hesitation.

"Yes, I am a professor at that school."

It wasn't that he deliberately lied, but it was because Hermione knew his identity that he was very unsafe in the first place. Now even if he confessed his origins, he still had to hide his true identity.

Besides, in terms of actual mental age, it's okay for Jon to shamelessly claim to be a professor.

Hermione was so excited that she didn't notice Jon's hesitation for a second. Besides, Jon was a professor, so it was reasonable. If he was just a student, then she should be suspicious.

"I have another question. Why did you think of going to the principal's office to find me?"

"I went to the storage room on the first floor first, because I knew from Hanton before that you knew about the situation in that room. After I didn't find you there, I could only think that you could go to the principal. room."

This time it was not just an inference, Hermione was also betting. If she had come a dozen or twenty minutes earlier, if she had opened the door when Jon was preparing to kill the basilisk, she might have been killed by the basilisk. eyes fixed on.

Fortunately, Jon moved quickly enough, otherwise Hermione would probably have died in the accident.

After understanding all the causes and consequences, Jon looked at Hermione seriously.

"Now that you have discovered my identity, you should also know the consequences if my identity is exposed, so Miss Granger, will you keep it strictly confidential?"

Hermione's face was full of seriousness, and she solemnly swore.

"I swear I will never tell anyone your secrets!"

She just swore and it was of no use. In the wizarding world, if you want to get information from people's minds, you don't have to open your mouth to speak. This is why Dumbledore asked Jon to sneak into Hogwarts Castle.

He had learned Occlumency from Slughorn for a whole school year and was capable enough to keep secrets, but Hermione obviously did not have such ability.

Jon was very calm and looked at things rationally at the moment. Even with Hermione's promise, he was not completely reassured. He was planning to sneak out of the castle and find an opportunity to find Aberforth to discuss and judge how to solve the three problems. painting, and then decide whether to try to erase Hermione's memory of herself based on the length of time she is likely to stay in the castle.

The little girl obviously couldn't tell what was going on in Jon's mind at this time, so she blinked and continued to ask.

"So, Professor? What should I call you?"

"Just keep calling me Randy, I only have this identity now." Jon said without changing his expression.

"Randy, why did Mr. Dumbledore send you to the castle?" She opened her eyes wide. "Does he want you to steal that man's important things?"

Jon said vaguely.

"Yeah, almost."

"Then" was spoken with only one sound, and Hermione suddenly became nervous again. Her body wrapped under the quilt even began to tremble slightly, and her bright eyes were full of expectation and uneasiness, "Then , did he ask you to provide us with any help?"

Her voice was low, with an unconfident and trembling tone, and her eyes that were looking directly at Jon were somewhat averted, as if she was expecting Jon's answer, but also seemed to be afraid of his answer.

Jon didn't speak immediately.

In fact, it was okay for him to tell the truth. This girl was very smart. As long as he explained clearly Dumbledore's difficulties and the issue of signing the enrollment contract, she should be able to understand.

Even the cowardice shown in her words now is an understanding. She clearly knows that even the professors from another Hogwarts have no reason to save them, let alone that there is a lot of time in between. It may be life-threatening.

But just because he knew that she was very smart, she had thought of everything she could think of, and even her words for help were so tactful and unconfident, which made Jon fall into silence.

He thought about the conversation he had with Aberforth that night not long ago. If his mission was successfully completed, what would students like Hermione in the castle do?

To continue to be left in this castle? Continue to be oppressed and domesticated?

Just thinking about such things made Jon feel uncomfortable.

These students in the castle are very cute. Hanton envies those noble mixed-blood and pure-blood students who can fly into the sky on broomsticks. Ariel is willing to tell everyone about her wonderful memories of previous Christmases to relieve everyone's boredom. Hermione wants to let them Those freshmen who have just entered school should not forget that they are still equal human beings and continue to organize rallies at great risks.

So, are these cute children who yearn for freedom destined to be left here as slaves?

Anyway, I can’t sleep. There’s another chapter below. If you can’t stand it, just go to sleep. I’ll read it tomorrow morning.
