Chapter 648: Another Report From Rita

The last lesson of the afternoon - biopharmaceutical lipids - began.

Harry felt lighter than usual as he walked down the dungeon stairs.

Malfoy, Clara and Goyle, along with the Slytherin girls, gathered at the door of the classroom before the last class in the afternoon.

They were all looking at something Harry couldn't see. When Harry, Ron and Hermione came in, Pansy's white egg-like face was staring at Goyle's large, placid face.

"They're coming, they're coming!"

She giggled and the Slytherin group dispersed.

Harry saw Pansy holding a magazine in her hand - "Beauty Weekly".

The cover showed an attractive curly-haired girl holding a wand, grinning over a large cake.

"You may find something interesting in here, Granger!" Pansy called, throwing the magazine to Hermione.

Hermione caught the magazine and looked at her in surprise.

Just then, the dungeon door opened, inviting them inside. Hermione, Harry and Ron walked towards the table at the back of the dungeon as usual. While Snape turned around and wrote the recipe for the potion he was going to learn today on the blackboard, Hermione quickly glanced at the magazine under the table.

Finally, among the magazines, Hermione found the article they were looking for.

Harry and Ron came closer.

A colorful picture of Harry is labeled "Harry. Potter's Secret Headache." It read: An unusual boy, perhaps; but this boy had suffered all the troubles of youth--so wrote Rita Skeeter--since a misfortune took his After losing his parents, fourteen-year-old Harry was deprived of the right to be loved.

He thought he could take comfort from his close girlfriend, a farm girl from Hogwarts. However, he did not realize that he would suffer another emotional blow in his life - the loss of his love.

Miss Granger, an ordinary-looking but ambitious girl, seemed to be in love with those outstanding wizards, but Harry was not.

Ever since Viktor Krum - Bulgarian, the last hero of the Quidditch World Cup - came to Hogwarts, Miss Griinger began to play with the love affairs of several boys.

Krum, the boy whom the openly lost Miss Granger was dating, had invited her to spend the summer in Bulgaria, and claimed that he had never felt such passionate love with another girl.

It was probably not Miss Griinger's questionable natural beauty that attracted the two unfortunate boys.

There is even a rising star of hope in the magic world, Fanlin El!

It is reported that Miss Granger and Mr. Fanlin Eyre also had some indescribable experiences.

Miss Granger began to circulate between the three people...

"She's ugly," said Pansy Parkinson, a pretty and lively student of fourteen, "but she's good enough at making love potions, and she's got the brains, and I think she's doing it now."

Love potions are of course banned at Hogwarts, but Albus Dumbledore undoubtedly wants to research and patent them.

At this time, Harry Potter's well-wishers must hope that next time he will set his heart on a more deserving person.

"I told you!" Ron said angrily to Hermione, "I told you not to piss off Rita Skeeter! She'll turn you into a slut!"

Hermione was reading the article. She looked up at him, a little surprised, and then smiled contemptuously.

"Slut?" she repeated, looking back at Ron and trying not to giggle. "That's what my mum calls them," Ron muttered, his ears turning red again.

"If that's what Rita can do, she must have lost her mind," Hermione said, still laughing. "A pile of rubbish!"

She threw the beauty magazine on an empty table. She looked at the Slytherins, who were looking at her.

At this moment Harry quietly walked over to see if they were upset by the article.

Hermione waved her hand at him, smiled sarcastically, and then, together with Harry and Ron, took out the ingredients for their sobriety potion.

"That's a bit ridiculous," Hermione said ten minutes later, "but how did Rita Skeeter know...?"

The girl was a little worried. He hadn't told Fanlin about Krum yet, but they knew each other so well that they didn't look like lovers who had just been together.

However, the girl still felt a little uneasy. In front of other people, Hermione could naturally be calm and even scornful, but in front of Fan Lin.

"What do you know?" Ron said quickly, "You haven't prepared the love potion yet, have you?"

"Don't be stupid," Hermione frowned slightly, interrupted him, and started to smash the beetle, "No, just, how did she know that Viktor asked me to visit him in the summer?"

Hermione glanced at the empty seat next to her with some worry. Fan Lin did not come to Professor Snape's class because of the specially approved leave note. He said he wanted to prepare something.

'What? "With a clang, Ron's pestle fell to the ground.

"How did Rita know about Krum's invitation to me?" Hermione frowned. It was not a pleasant experience for such privacy to be posted in the Daily Prophet.

"Wow, that's really cool," said Ron. "How did you answer that?"

"Awesome?" Hermione raised her eyebrows, she was a little angry.

"Of course, that's Krum." Ron said, "Maybe you can agree to him, and then invite your friends there, such as me and Harry, so that we can get up close and personal with the world's top Quidditch player."

Ron looked a little excited. He could almost foresee the wonderful experience of the holiday, and they could even play Quidditch with the top Quidditch players.

"Have you told Fanlin?" Harry asked.

"Not yet," Hermione said, "What happened last night, Fan Lin went to the Room of Requirement to prepare things, and I didn't see him."

"I hope Fanlin won't think too much about it, but..." Harry also wanted to confirm whether this was true, but Hermione had no need to deceive him, and based on Fanlin and Hermione's daily life...

"Did you agree? And tell Fan Lin?"

"I didn't agree." Hermione said angrily.

"Of course I have to tell Fanlin." Harry said matter-of-factly, "Hermione is Fanlin's girlfriend, and Krum has evil intentions. He is Fanlin's enemy."

"Enemy?" Ron repeated. He was stunned. Only now did he fully understand what was wrong.

Hermione is Fan Lin's girlfriend. If they hadn't always had a good relationship, these words alone would have caused them to cut off their relationship. (To be continued)
