193. Vacation is all about studying.
Over there, Harry was locked in a small dark room by Adair, reading a magic book in a secret room.
Ron here is not going anywhere.
After all, he is also a friend of Hermione and Daphne.
A friend was beaten. Even if he can't help and doesn't know what to do, he can't just walk away.
Are you so cold-blooded?
Harry used his body as bait to lure Adair away, but Ron didn't want to and didn't dare to act with Adair.
Therefore, he remained in the school hospital.
If there is no magic, maybe there are still things he can do. The problem is that in the magical world, there is a levitating charm to lift people, a flying charm to bring medicine, even if he has to find another professor to diagnose internal injuries, or summon a house elf to apparate. It's faster than a person running on two legs, so Ron only has that mouth left to use.
"Well, then we will know that Elaine also has difficulties." Ron tried to comfort Hermione. "Great. When she comes back to apologize, you can have a good talk and reconcile as soon as possible. After all, she didn't do that voluntarily. Everything is the fault of that madman Adair."
Hermione's eyes were unfocused, her eyes were red, and her hair was disheveled. She looked so depressed and frustrated, and it didn't look like her at all. Ron really couldn't stand it.
Miss Granger should be a strong, independent, diligent and brave know-it-all, proudly occupying the first place in the school year. No problem can stump her. Even if she encounters troubles she has never seen before, she will do it. Face it and overcome it actively, instead of being as depressed and depressed as you are now.
"Although Adair said that, who cares? It's none of his business that we want to be friends with Elaine." It was the hardest to start, but after getting started, Ron started talking non-stop. "No wonder Elaine gets irritated every time he mentions Adair. She won't listen to him. Didn't I just say that Elaine fell asleep? This shouldn't be any of Elaine's business. He must have made his own decision."
"When Elaine wakes up, she will most likely rush over to apologize in a panic. Then you can have a good chat and reconcile as soon as possible. If the music box is broken, you can ask her to fix it. At worst, you will have to make a new one. Those things will It’s not difficult to do, and it was Adair who broke it. If Elaine wants to be angry, she’s going to be angry at him, right?”
"No, we broke it ourselves." Daphne's voice suddenly interrupted, startling Ron. "Mr. Adair just made sure that things were done so that we would have no regrets."
"Uh"
As a result of being attacked by Adair, Daphne suffered serious internal injuries. Professor McGonagall was unable to deal with it, so he sent a house elf to call Professor Sglughorn to come over and use potions to relieve the pain; and the news Adair just revealed was a bit shocking. In addition to Elaine's problem, after asking Daphne to take the medicine, the two professors walked into Madam Pomfrey's office and closed the door to discuss it.
Although Slughorn can't control the affairs of the Shafik family, his words are still useful. After all, Slughorn is Adair's professor and his wife's uncle. His dual status as elder and mentor makes it difficult for Adair to It shouldn't be difficult for Dell to give in a little.

"You're right about one thing. Who Elaine wants to be friends with has nothing to do with him." Daphne lay on the bed, looking at the ceiling, muttering to herself, "She won't care about Mr. Adair's orders, but , even if we didn’t know it, we still trampled on her feelings and she won’t come to apologize.”
"That's just a misunderstanding." Ron said cheerfully, "Don't be so pessimistic. Elaine will definitely come over and apologize later. You can just apologize too. We are friends. As long as you calm down after a while, Let’s talk and things will definitely get better.”
"No, Elaine won't come." Hermione slowly raised her head and said. "Even if she wants to come, Mr. Adair will definitely stop her. She can't resist that guy. There is a huge difference in strength between the two sides."
"Why do you even say that?" Ron rolled his eyes, "In that case, let's find Dumbledore──"
"Besides, it was Elaine who took the initiative to apologize before, but now it's our turn."
Before he could finish speaking, Hermione spoke first.
"ga"
"Mr. Adair will stop him, and he may even use the Unforgivable Curse. He will never show mercy." Daphne continued, "Even if we cannot defeat him, we must have the ability to protect ourselves, otherwise we will not be able to contact Elaine at all. .”
"It's holiday now, and Professor McGonagall is here too." Hermione said decisively, her tone revealing firm determination. "Ask her to guide us. There's nothing to do in bed anyway."
"that"
"What a good idea. You can also ask Professor Slughorn for help." Daphne agreed, "As long as you seize the opportunity, potions can also come in handy."
"You guys cheered up so quickly." Ron rolled his eyes and curled his lips. "Okay, I know, it's because I've been cheering you up, right? You're welcome, we are friends."
"Then please help more and write a letter." Daphne said without any politeness at all, "Mr. Adair is targeting us, not you and Harry. You can help pass the message to Elaine."
"I need to take back what I just said, and you have to say thank you."
"Thanks, Ron, thank you very much," Hermione said, which would have been a sincere thank you if she hadn't frowned. "But you forgot to take my ink tank. Please make another trip. I also need more parchment paper to write notes. Can you help me order some from the Owl House?"
"I want it too. My stationery and textbooks are all left in the dormitory. No one can help me get them now." Daphne said immediately, "By the way, bring your textbooks with you so that I don't have to read separately from Hermione." .”
"Yes Yes Yes."
Even though he was dissatisfied with being ordered around, Ron still breathed a sigh of relief and cheered up. He was about to leave the campus hospital to collect things - then the door of the office opened and two professors came out.
"No need to go, Weasley." Professor McGonagall held her head high and said to Ron with a kind smile. "Anyway, you are very free. You just happen to stay and study with them. It doesn't make any difference to me to teach two or three students."
"It's just pen and paper. The elf will send it to you soon. I will also prepare some useful potions. You guys take good care of yourself and study hard." Slughorn said, "I've heard all about it. This matter is indeed Adair’s problem, and we will help you as much as possible.”
"But Professor," Ron's scalp was numb and he struggled to say, "it's the Christmas vacation, today is Christmas."
"Well, it's great that I have a lot of time to help you."
