Hogwarts starts with stealing power.

Chapter 256 Lin Xia's clever comfort, cat-eared girl Sai Gao, temptation to the diary

Ron said distressedly, "But for the rescue potion, we only have the formula but no corresponding steps.

Can Draco really make the potion just by inheriting it?"

Harry also found it very difficult.

But he trusted Draco more than Ron, because Draco never did anything without certainty.

Lin Xia comforted him, “Now we can only try to trust him and give it a try.

If all else fails, there is still Madam Pomfrey. She said she has contacted her friends in Saint-Gormont and can get technical support from them.

If it doesn't work, we can transfer Hermione to St. Gorman's, and we will definitely find a solution soon!"

After dinner in the auditorium.

Lin Xia accompanied Harry and others to the infirmary to visit Hermione.

Hermione was lying on the hospital bed, looking a little listless, with her cat ears drooping.

Lin Xia took great effort to suppress her urge to touch it.

Cat-eared girl!
living!
For a cat lover, cat-eared girls are a magical existence.

Hermione's eyes lit up when she saw Lin Xia. Girls always have more topics to talk about.

She drove Harry and other boys out, leaving only her and Lin Xia in the ward.

Hermione began to sob and complain to Lin Xia, saying how miserable her life was after becoming a cat-eared girl, and she couldn't stand being covered in fur!
Lin Xia thought for a while, then did the opposite to comfort her: "Hermione, do you feel anything different about your body?"

Hermione looked at her suspiciously, her cat ears twitching slightly.

"Differences? There are so many!"

Lin Xia shook her head: "No, I mean thoughts and thinking.

Do you feel anything particularly sensitive compared to humans?"

She pondered and said, "According to the effect of the polyjuice potion, it only brings changes to people's appearance. The magic power and talents in people's bodies are not changed.

I wonder if you haven't changed in these aspects since you became a cat-eared girl?"

Hermione thought about it carefully: "I think it's still a little different."

Lin Xia asked curiously: "For example?"

Hermione: "I feel my hearing has become more sensitive, and my sense of smell has also changed a lot. If the food is a little salty, I can tell it's too salty, but it tastes really good.

But compared to salty food, my body tells me that I am more suitable to eat food without any salt."

Lin Xia pondered: "It seems that you already have some characteristics of a cat, but what else?
Have your own thoughts and ideas changed in any way?"

Hermione shook her head and said hesitantly, "Nothing has changed. I can still find answers quickly when I think about problems. Even..."

Under Lin Xia's gaze, her tail drooped uneasily.

Hermione muttered quietly, "I feel like when I'm in cat form, I can often come up with some fantastic ideas that I've never thought of before, and they give me a lot of new inspiration."

She was also controlled by her collapsed emotions for a long time.

Hearing Lin Xia mention this, Hermione suddenly realized that this cat-eared girl form didn't seem to bring her any particular harm.

Besides it is really inconvenient physically.

On the contrary, it can give her a lot of inspiration, which is unimaginable in human form.

Lin Xia smiled and said, "That's right, since this form is beneficial to you, I think you should accept it instead of rejecting it.

You should know that you will soon be able to get rid of the cat-eared girl form, and when you become a human again, you may not have so many strange ideas.

Hermione, if it were me, I would try every possible way to use this form to study some interesting things. After all, such a good opportunity is rare."

As Lin Xia spoke, she reached out and patted Hermione's shoulder.

"Well, I think your body is not that fragile. There is no need for you to stay in the infirmary. You can live in the laboratory.

No other wizards will enter the laboratory, and the equipment inside is complete. You can do research and meet your personal needs.

As for meals...the house elves can bring them in, or we can bring them in for you. The same goes for medicine, we can bring them to you every day."

Hermione was a little confused by Lin Xia.

After a while, she finally understood what Lin Xia meant.

"So you think that I should use this form to do some interesting experiments instead of wallowing in sadness?"

Lin Xia raised her eyebrows, "Of course!"

She asked back, "Next time you use Polyjuice Potion, will you put cat hair in it?"

Hermione screamed without thinking, "Impossible! This unfortunate experience happened once, it's enough, there won't be a next time!"

Lin Xia spread her hands, "That's right, since this is your only experience, why not make good use of the imagination brought by the cat-eared girl form?"

Hermione: "I, I..."

She was a little speechless.

Although she didn't want to admit it, the stirrings in her mind told her that she was a little moved.

Lin Xia patted Hermione's shoulder again and said in a relaxed tone:
“So cheer up, my good friend.

The lab needs you. If you can come up with something interesting, it might become a best-selling product for our lab."

Lin Xia changed the subject, "Also, although you are very opposed to this form, I want to say that you are really cute like this.

Do you know that in the Muggle world, there are actually many people who like this form?"

"Huh?" Hermione looked even more confused.

Some people still like this weird form.

Lin Xia suddenly became excited.

She decided to give Hermione a thorough scientific education.

Thanks to magic, at this moment she felt that magic was really convenient, as it could express all the wonderful ideas in her mind in the form of images.

She first showed Hermione many anime characters with cat ears, then showed her photos of real people cosplaying, and then showed her photos of many people wearing cat ears in their daily lives.

In addition, she successfully recommended Cat-eared Girl Warrior, Cat-eared Girl Assassin, Cat-eared Girl cartoons, Cat-eared Girl games, and Cat-eared Girl novels to Hermione!

after an hour.

Hermione seemed to have opened up a new world and was no longer so averse to her current form.

With the help of Lin Xia, she changed Hermione into a set of meow clothes that was more suitable for a cat-eared girl, with her tail exposed and swinging back and forth.

So arrogant!

Lin Xia felt that the cat-eared girl form was very suitable for Hermione, because Hermione's personality was a bit arrogant.

She is simply a cat-eared girl!

Besides, isn't the Gryffindor lion essentially just a big meow?
They are both cats and have the same ancestor!
Ron, Harry and Ron waited outside the infirmary for a long time, and their legs and feet became a little stiff from waiting.

Ron wanted to just lie on the floor.

He asked, "Could something have happened? Why did they talk for so long?"

Draco said in a gentlemanly manner: "I think this is quite normal."

Harry nodded in agreement. "Ron, as long as we come across a topic of interest, such as playing wizard chess, I can play with you for a whole day. What interesting things should they be discussing?"

Of course, he made that judgment.

Most importantly, there was no more Hermione screaming, making noise, or sobbing in the infirmary. Instead, there were bursts of laughter from time to time.

This is amazing!
Harry thought that in his eyes, Lin Xia had always been mysterious, noble, cheerful and generous.

Lin Xia and Draco are both aristocrats, and Draco has the arrogance of aristocrats engraved in his bones.

But Lin Xia had none of that.

She treats all little wizards equally.

Sometimes, Harry even felt that Lin Xia seemed to have a little pity for him.

Harry took off his glasses and wiped them, feeling that he must have perceived it wrongly.

Although his life was sometimes miserable, he was extremely happy as long as he could study at Hogwarts.

"Who did I see quietly, the legendary trio?"

Greg's sarcastic voice came from the corridor. Even when facing Draco, he did not change his arrogant nature.

In Grace's eyes, he didn't think he was worse than Draco at all.

They just differ in family.

If he had the same family as Draco, his current achievements would definitely be higher than his.

Grace asked: "Why are you three stinky men here? Where is Hermione, and where is Lin Xia?
Didn’t Lin Xia also fill out the application form to stay on campus? Why haven’t I seen her during this holiday? "

Ron choked back: "Grace, what do you care what we are doing here? Lin Xia is not your friend, isn't it normal that you don't know her whereabouts?"

Grace said sarcastically: "Then Lin Xia is your friend? Who are you to be worthy of being friends with Lin Xia?

In my opinion, Lin Xia should come to Slytherin. Her unparalleled wisdom makes her the best candidate for Slytherin's heir!"

As Grace spoke, he approached Ron and the others, getting closer and closer to the door of the ward.

Before anyone could react, Grace suddenly pushed the door open!
Ron, Harry and Draco all widened their eyes, "No!"

But it was too late to close the door now.

Lin Xia stood at the edge of the door and asked in confusion: "What's going on with you?"

Grace wanted to look back, but Lin Xia closed the door completely.

She met Grace's gaze and said with a half-smile, "I think I heard my name outside. What do you want to talk to me about?"

Gress said awkwardly, "No, no, I, I have something to do so I left first."

He quickly left the corridor.

Harry and the others all breathed a sigh of relief. Hermione was almost seen by Grace just now.

If Grace knew Hermione's current state, he would definitely spread it widely.

They could guess with their toes that Gries had such sinister intentions!
Lin Xia stepped back a few steps, and the door was pushed open again. Hermione, wearing a wizard robe, appeared in front of everyone.

They couldn't help but stare and said in disbelief: "Hermione, are you healed now?"

They circled around Hermione, looking around.

The cat ears are gone, and the cat tail is gone!

Hermione shook her head: "No, I used a disguise spell to disguise myself as a human.

This spell was taught to me by Lin Xia. It is not as complicated to use as the Invisibility Spell, and the professor is not very good at using the counterspell of the Disguise Spell to identify me. "

The more complicated you think, the more anxious you will be and the easier it will be to be discovered.

On the contrary, a simple trick may help her return to the public eye.

But Hermione thought.

Even if she was found out, she probably wouldn't be as sad as before.

She is actually quite pretty in her cat-eared girl form.

As long as you accept it in your heart, it’s no big deal.

On the contrary, Hermione was a little annoyed. If she had known earlier, the cat-eared girl form could burst out some wonderful ideas from time to time.

She should have gone to the lab earlier and not wasted such a good opportunity.

Because next time...

No no, there won't be a next time!

After solving Hermione's depression, the group went to the library and Hermione borrowed a lot of books.

She would experiment while trying to find a solution to her body.

At the same time, Lin Xia also came to the laboratory, in her own exclusive laboratory.

She slowly opened the diary.

When she left, she put two seals on the diary and drew many forbidden magic runes in the laboratory.

She was just worried that the diary would find ways to escape when she was not around.

This diary is Voldemort's Horcrux. When it is used, vague evil whispers will be heard, confusing people's minds.

Even adult wizards cannot resist this kind of method, let alone other young wizards.

Once it is released, the consequences will be disastrous.

A ball of thick ink quickly appeared in the diary, and then transformed into various words. It looked the same as before, with nothing unusual.

As soon as the diary was opened, Tom was already complaining madly in his heart.

It was locked up for 20 whole days!
During these 20 days, it tried to escape all the time, but was bounced back by the solid sealing magic runes.

Tom could feel that the power of the sealing magic rune on him had become stronger.

What kind of perverted monster is this!

Tom was both annoyed and envious. At least when he was young, he didn't control so many magic runes.

It was only after graduating from Hogwarts that I came into contact with the magic runes.

Although his talent in magic runes is good, it is far inferior to his talent in black magic.

When he was young, he was more interested in studying black magic. Even in this memory, he still has a special liking for black magic.

Experiments are only used to confuse people.

[Lin Xia, you haven't appeared for a long time. Is Hogwarts on holiday?]
Suddenly, it wrote much faster.

[I feel like you've become different, you've become stronger, and your aura is very different!]
Lin Xia did not speak, but slowly wrote a line of words:

[Tom, do you want to escape from the cage of the diary? I have found some methods related to alchemy, which may allow you to leave the diary and exist as an independent individual]
Tom was silent for a long time.

This is not just pretending, this is real thinking.

After being locked in a dark diary and failing to escape, the thing it did most of the time was thinking about getting out of the diary.

It felt impossible.

With its knowledge, it is impossible to transfer the spirit of the diary to another spirit.

But Lin Xia gave a lot of conditions, including a strange object that could transform into a ghost and a method provided by a banned book.

And now, she has acquired the alchemy of spirit-body transformation.

Tom replied very cautiously: [How can you make me trust you?]
Lin Xia: [No, you don’t need to believe me. Instead, you need to think hard about how to gain my trust and let me pay the price of changing your spirit body for you.]
