Chapter 53 Prejudice and moved  

The ambiguous atmosphere lasted for a while, then slowly subsided. Reason controlled Jack's heart.

Only then did he realize that his current physical age is only eleven years old, and Hermione is also eleven years old. As a result, their two eleven-year-old children hid in the corner of the library to play and kiss, and almost hotkiss...

Although he was definitely an adult in his heart, the most important thing was that it was Hermione who spoke first.

Are all the little girls now so precocious?

It made him start to wonder if he was girlconed. Oh Girlta, the light of my life, my desire

The fire of thought. My sin, my spirit... Stop now, don't think about it any longer.

If it goes down, it will become a pervert, at least until the age of sixteen... Jack thought about it for a while, and finally came back to his senses.

At this time, Hermione was also in a state of confusion. She couldn't believe that she actually said something like that and did something like that, so she had to bury her head in Jack's arms and pretend to be an ostrich.

"Cough cough."

Jack cleared his throat and broke the silence first. "Well, Hermione, I have something to tell you."

In his arms, Hermione nodded incredulously.

Jack continued: "I think that since you have been investigating Nicolas Flamel, on the one hand you want to know what treasure Dumbledore has hidden, on the other hand you are still suspicious that Snape wanted to murder Harry and steal the treasure."

Hermione in her arms nodded again.

"Listen to me, Hermione, you can't suspect a professor based on a bad impression." Jack sighed and persuaded, "It is a serious accusation to jump to conclusions about this kind of thing without clear evidence. "I'm not blaming you morally, but I want to tell you that doing so will lead to a big detour in your investigation, and even cause irreversible consequences."

Hearing this, Hermione's reaction suddenly became fierce, she left Jack's embrace, looked up at him, and retorted seriously: "But Snape does often target Harry Potter, he always Embarrassing Harry in Potions class, he's the most suspicious of professors."

As expected of Hermione, when faced with a debate, she never cares about anything ambiguous or not. This is the demeanor of "Miss Knowles".

"I know this, Snape really hates Harry. He has always been a mean person. I heard Chang Cho say that Snape was also named the champion of the England Mean Championship." Speaking of which, even He Min laughed too.

However, Jack's voice changed: "But, this proves nothing, if you follow your logic, then whether it's smearing the corridor with mud, or dripping Frobe caterpillar juice into Gryffindor's lunch, or Summoning Filch on a student night out, that's what Snape did, because of all the professors he was the meanest to his students."

"No...no, these..." Hermione was speechless, she didn't know how to refute, because this was her original logic.

"In fact, Peeves did all these things." Jack said with a smile, "But Peeves will definitely not conspire to steal Professor Dumbledore's treasure. We all know that pranking is his only hobby. "

"So," he looked Hermione straight in the eyes, "do you still think Snape got Harry?"

"You're right." Hermione thought for a while, and finally admitted her mistake: "I was too arbitrary."

"Yes, you are indeed too arbitrary." Jack touched Hermione's cheek. "You are Hermione Granger, you are smarter than anyone, all the little wizards - pure blood or mixed blood - learn magic faster than you, you always rely on logic to judge problems, why this time Like everyone else, starting to follow impressions and intuitions?"

When Jack said this, Hermione's face turned red - because Jack knew her too well, he said everything, she was a more rational person who didn't easily doubt others - she bit her lip , whispered: "Yes, this time I am too biased against Professor Snape, I will not easily doubt him again."

Then, as loudly as a declaration, she said, "But I still think Snape is a nuisance."

Poor old bat, the students' bad impression of him can't be changed.

Jack shrugged and agreed: "I think so too, he is not only gloomy, withdrawn, mean, eccentric, but also never washes his hair, everyone hates him."

Hermione nodded in satisfaction. Jack sighed inexplicably.

Girls are really hard to coax. It is not easy to convince her without making her angry.

Fortunately, this is the more reasonable Hermione.

Suddenly, Hermione looked at Jack curiously and asked him, "So, the treasure hidden by Dumbledore is Nicolas Flamel's Philosopher's Stone, right?"

"Yes, I guess that's it." Jack nodded, but did not forget to remind her: "Never tell Harry Potter and Ron Way about Nicolas Flamel and the Philosopher's Stone. Sly, this is too dangerous, whoever has the guts to steal from Dumbledore's hands must be a powerful dark wizard, and their weak strength is not suitable for participating."

It's not that it's not inappropriate to participate, it's just that they didn't know it all.

Jack decided to reveal the news to Harry at the end of the semester, when he was fully prepared, so that he would have a chance to get the Philosopher's Stone.

But this point does not need to be told to the most righteous Hermione for the time being - at least it will take a few more semesters, and then tell her after she has truly become "her own".

After reaching a consensus, the two immediately went to the library together.

On the way back to the lounge, Hermione suddenly asked curiously: "You just said that Harry and Ron are too weak to participate, so what about me? Can I participate in this?"

That's right, this time Hermione didn't even want to meddle in this nosy business, and she knew to ask him in advance.

But with Hermione's character, she would definitely be unhappy if she wasn't allowed to participate.

So Jack raised his eyebrows and said proudly: "You are you, they are them, although your strength is not strong——"

Having said that, he glanced at Hermione, and the little girl's face was much ugly.

He continued, "But that's okay, because I'll protect you."

Hearing this sentence, Hermione, who originally felt underestimated, suddenly had no complaints in her heart, even if she was judged to be insignificant.

She thought back to the night of Halloween and her first Quidditch lesson.

Whenever she was in crisis, he would stand by her side and protect her from harm.

"He said he would protect me."

Hermione was completely moved, she suddenly gave Jack a big hug without saying a word.

As a result, Jack was at a loss.

What is this for? Why did she hug me? Did I say something special? Never mind, so be it.

Feeling Hermione's strong closeness and dependence on him, he held her back in his arms.

He left his original family and came to a different world alone. Here, he saw the legendary magic and had a great goal.

But beneath it all lies a deep loneliness.

However, now he knew that he was finally no longer alone, no longer alone. There are people who care about him and rely on him.

...

Christmas is coming.
