52. When humanoid stars shine (Happy New Year~~)
In the corridor on the eighth floor, O'Loughlin looked at Trelawney, with a feeling of hating iron for being unable to make steel. This eldest sister actually really loves Hogwarts and regards Hogwarts as her home. She is obviously very average in strength. , but dared to participate in the Battle of Hogwarts, which is not said to be unbrave.
O'Loughlin also persuaded Trelawney to stop being a prophet and that her ambition might be better, but that conversation almost caused the two to break up.
Only afterward did Oluolin realize that he had made a big mistake. He should not have subconsciously placed himself in a superior position and tried to persuade Trelawney with a pity attitude.
Because no matter how good her acting is on the surface, the sensitive Trelawney can still figure out the meaning, and she doesn't need comfort at all. The path she chose is her own, and she is willing to die in despair.
Moreover, she can't change her character of pretending to be mysterious.
Just like now, when she was clearly drunk but could avoid looking at Oralin, there was a high probability that Trelawney was pretending to be stupid.
This is probably the most prophet-like thing about her. Olorin has read various descriptions of prophets from books, and they all say that prophets with the ability to predict are often crazy.
But Orolin has visited many wise old wizards who have seen prophets before. They all say that the madness of the prophets is actually pretending to be confused. After all, they often predict a bad future but are unable to do anything about it. This kind of psychological pressure is really not The average person can afford it.
Moreover, because she has to face the risk of being exposed in person at any time, Trelawney's psychological pressure is actually greater than that of a real prophet. If she is a person without shame or a person with no moral bottom line, then this kind of pressure will be put on her. Maybe she couldn't feel it, but unfortunately she wasn't.
So, Trelawney is really a very strong person.
In the corridor, Olorin shook his head and said softly: "Do you want to come back to your senses and talk to me again? Or, like before, let me wake you up a little bit?"
"No!" After hearing Orolin's words, Trelawney suddenly sobered up a little, "No, I'll do it myself!"
After saying that, she rubbed her face vigorously.
"Tell me, why are you here? You won't tell me that you use this place as a garbage dump to hide wine bottles, right? How many times have I told you, don't drink too much."
"I didn't! I came here to find something." Trelawney hurriedly denied. She didn't want to be caught by Oralin again and asked to give up drinking.
"What are you looking for? A crown?"
"No...no." Trelawney felt guilty.
"That's it. Didn't I tell you that you can't touch that thing?"
"It..." Trelawney said, suddenly her eyes turned wildly, the corners of her mouth turned down, and she began to twitch. Then she changed her tone and shouted in a low voice, "I saw it, I saw it, a humanoid star. When it shines, black and white..."
Before Trelawney could finish her words, she rolled her eyes and fainted. Fortunately, Oralin supported her in time.
……
At the top of the stairs, Fred saw the little black dot on the map begin to move, and immediately called to George and Harry who were on alert: "Professor Trelawney has begun to move!"
"She ran so fast."
"Hide quickly, she is coming towards us!"
The three of them immediately scrambled to find a hiding place, but before they could find it, they saw Trelawney floating sideways in the air and then flying out of the window.
"..." x3
The stunned three people ignored the danger of being discovered. They all leaned on the window edge and looked in the direction where Professor Trelawney flew away. That was the first floor. She seemed to be going back to the staff lounge.
"Professor Trelawney can fly?" Harry asked.
"Uh--"
The twins didn't know how to answer this question, because they didn't know Professor Trelawney could do this before. If they had known earlier, they would have taken a divination class.
"Maybe...maybe...probably..."
Harry knew as soon as he heard it that he didn't need to listen anymore. After all, the last time these three words came out together, his hair was not like it is now, with a bunch of green and a bunch of black.
……
The Department of Mysteries is a very unique place for the Ministry of Magic. How unique is it?The Minister of Magic has no part in what's going on here.
This department is almost completely independent of the entire magical world, and ordinary wizards may not even know that there is such a department in the Ministry of Magic.
But it is important because many things were born from here - time turners, trace threads, prophecy crystal balls and so on.
Even the decoration here is completely different from other floors in the Ministry of Magic. There are no windows or doors here. Wizards who enter here by mistake can only see extremely smooth walls covered with black tiles and a deep corridor.
In the Department of Mysteries, there is a tall room called the Prophecy Hall, which is a place dedicated to the study and interpretation of prophecies. There are rows of towering shelves filled with prophecy crystal balls.
Just now, the 114th row, 5th cell, 14th crystal ball numbered 114514 shone slightly, and then a silent man quickly arrived and picked up the crystal ball.
"When humanoid stars shine, black and white..."
"What does this mean?" The silent man was puzzled, but he was only the person on duty tonight, and the people responsible for interpretation were all off work, so he just recorded the prophecy and filed it in the queue of prophecies to be interpreted.
……
In the Forbidden Forest of Hogwarts, centaurs are gathering together.
An old centaur with white hair stood at the highest point and looked down at the other centaurs below. He looked very majestic and asked, "What happened tonight?"
"There is no news that any magical creature group has been killed in the forest, but..." a centaur with long red hair and a beard, and a brownish-red lower body answered.
"Just what?"
"It's just that Firenze said that it observed unknown changes in the starry sky."
As soon as the red-haired centaur finished speaking, all the centaurs present looked at the sky.
The stars are so bright in the night sky that ordinary people can't see anything at all, but horses can, because one of the things they have to learn since childhood is how to obtain information through changes in the stars.
"I didn't notice any significant changes."
After a young centaur finished speaking, he quickly aroused a chorus of agreement.
"I do not have either."
"Me too."
There was some commotion among the young centaurs. They were all ashamed that their astrological abilities were not as good as Firenze's. After all, Firenze was a centaur who was close to humans.
The old centaur stopped this scene in time and asked: "Where is Firenze? Ronan, where did you overhear what Firenze said?"
The reason why the old horseman used "eavesdropping" is because everyone knows that the relationship between Ronan and Firenze, who hates humans the most, is very tense. Firenze cannot take the initiative to tell Ronan the stars he has observed.
Ronan didn't dare to neglect the old centaur's question. He stood up and said, "Near the hybrid giant, Firenze has been following him recently."
O'Loughlin also persuaded Trelawney to stop being a prophet and that her ambition might be better, but that conversation almost caused the two to break up.
