Hogwarts: A little lion in the skin of the Eagle School

Hermione and John have always had some differences in their ideas.

John kept saying that Ryan was a pureblood, and his family was worried that if Ryan befriended him, he would become one of those targeted by the Death Eaters.

Therefore, John and his team have always been very considerate of Ryan's situation.

But they all seem to have forgotten that John is the one truly at the center of the storm.

Why do you always only think about others and never about yourself?

"How idle must the Death Eaters be to kidnap an unknown person to establish their authority?"

"It's true that Ryan and the others might be targeted if they befriend you, but at least we'll have to be completely defeated and Voldemort will have no time to dredge up these old grievances."

"And you, a Muggle-born genius, uncovered the truth behind Voldemort's plot to resurrect himself, and then went on to conduct a high-profile interview."

"Are you afraid Voldemort won't notice you?"

John was momentarily stunned by Hermione's reproachful yet deeply concerned tone.

After all, in his view, he possessed strength surpassing all of them.

It's only natural that they stand at the front.

Therefore, they are more concerned about whether their companions can safely retreat behind the safety line than about their own safety.

But Hermione's words left him speechless.

Seeing the serious and worried look on Hermione's face, John did not shy away.

He looked at her intently and said softly.

"Don't worry, Hermione, I know what I'm doing."

Hermione pursed her lips and remained silent. She knew she couldn't stop John, so she could only hold his hand and remain silent for a long time.

the other side.

The interviews inside the house were also coming to an end.

"Oh, I see. So John's strength is all thanks to you guys."

Mr. Lovegood muttered to himself as he took notes of Titus's words.

"That's right. John is just a Muggle. Without the protection of us purebloods, how could he have achieved what he has today?"

Titus patted his chest and said with great pride.

Since it was an interview with John, they naturally talked about John's issues.

However, they keep trying to embellish their own image.

For example, John's achievements were inseparable from their help.

Luna, who was standing to the side, listened with a smile that made her eyes crinkle.

"By the way, we don't need to be anonymous."

Ryan added, Titus and Ethan glanced at Ryan but did not object.

"Okay, no problem."

The interviews with the three of them have now concluded.

Titus and his two companions then emerged, laughing and joking.

"John, we're done with our interviews, it's your turn."

"Okay, see you in the auditorium later."

John nodded, then walked into the house, pulling Hermione inside as he did so.

Luna was also sitting at the table, propping her chin up as she looked at John and said something inexplicable.

"John, you've made a very good friend."

"what?"

John was taken aback by these words, but Luna didn't explain anything.

Just as he was about to ask further, Luna also got up and followed Titus and the others back to the castle.

Mr. Lovegood, sitting opposite, spoke first.

"Mr. Merrick, is this your little sweetheart?"

"...Ahem! Mr. Lovegood, please be serious, we are a legitimate couple."

Hermione was taken aback by the sudden remark, coughed lightly, and emphasized earnestly.

"Oh, okay, okay, my apologies."

"Let's start with Miss Girlfriend. What kind of person do you think your boyfriend is?"

Mr. Lovegood, looking knowing, asked Hermione again.

"Ah...uh...he..."

Hermione's cheeks flushed slightly at the question. She glanced at John; this was hardly the kind of thing to say to his face...

Besides, she didn't want to be interviewed!

And just like that, I was asked the question without even realizing it...

"he..."

As soon as Hermione opened her mouth, John stared wide-eyed, looking like he was really looking forward to hearing some praise from Hermione.

Hermione immediately changed her tune.

"He's an idiot!"

John: "..."

Hermione blushed and said in a rather haughty manner.

Mr. Lovegood, on the other hand, had a knowing look on his face as his pen moved swiftly across the parchment.

"My girlfriend blushed, like a ripe apple sun-dried through. Her eyes were full of love as she looked at her boyfriend, but she was too shy to let him be there. She said, against her true feelings, that her boyfriend was an idiot..."

As he took notes, he deliberately muttered the contents to himself.

Even John blushed when he heard these words, let alone Hermione.

Hermione was so ashamed and angry that she slammed her hand on the table and stood up.

"Mr. Lovegood, please don't write this! This is not true at all!"

"But it's closer to the truth than the facts, my dear lady," Mr. Lovegood said without looking up.

Hermione pointed at him angrily, but couldn't lash out, so she blushed, looking both ashamed and angry.

Then he glared at John and ran off on his own.

No, it wasn't me who wrote the nonsense, so why are you glaring at me?

John watched Hermione's departing figure, speechless for a moment.

Mr. Lovegood smiled slightly as he watched this scene and said to John.

"Let's continue, Mr. Merrick."

"it is good."

John nodded and continued the interview.

The interview content was nothing special.

It's about John's growth and his daily life at Hogwarts, digging deep into his daily routine to show how John gradually grew into the prodigy people talk about.

There were also some gossip questions, like how he and Hermione got together, their romantic history, etc...

There were no tricky problems.

There was no specific mention of their attitude or stance towards Voldemort.

Mentioning such a thing is tantamount to asking for trouble, and Mr. Lovegood clearly knows how to be tactful.

The interview ended quickly.

The two left Hagrid's cabin together, and John decided to see Mr. Lovegood, who had come from afar, off.

"Thank you for making this special trip to help our operation."

"Oh, it's my honor to interview you and Potter."

Mr. Lovegood was always so easygoing, without a trace of the airs of an elder.

The two arrived at the bridge at the main gate of Hogwarts Castle.

A gust of wind nearly blew Mr. Lovegood’s crooked hat off, and he reached out to hold the brim.

A distinctive necklace around her neck swayed slightly in the wind.

It was a triangular pendant with a vertical line and a circle inside the triangle.

It's a symbol I've never seen before.

But he didn't ask any more questions, guessing it was just a family keepsake or some kind of mark.

"Alright, that's enough for now. Goodbye, Mr. Merrick."

Mr. Lovegood nodded slightly and smiled at John.

John nodded in acknowledgment, then watched Mr. Lovegood's tall, thin figure gradually disappear into the distance, finally vanishing from sight with a snap after leaving the Hogwarts area completely.
