Genius in a Second to Remember If You Want To Go? The Internet provides you with wonderful novels to read.
In the bright front hall, Harry felt that everything had become unreal.
He remembered the feeling of flying in the clouds. The clouds were misty, dreamlike, as if he was dreaming.
"Past time?!" He murmured, looking at Elwyn in surprise. "What does this mean? I don't understand. What happened?"
"We went backwards in time!" Hermione whispered, taking the gold chain off Elwyn and Harry's necks. "We went backwards six hours!"
"Let's go back in time!" Harry touched his leg and pinched it hard.
It hurt. This seemed to indicate that he was not having a strange dream.
Harry wanted to say something, but Elwyn suddenly said, "Shh! Someone is coming. It should be Madam Pomfrey. We must hide first. "
The three hurried out of the ward, through the front hall, and into the dark and empty corridor. Then, at once, they stopped. They saw Professor Trelawney stagger down the stairs not far ahead.
She did not see the three of them. In fact, she looked very flustered, as if she was hiding from something.
Professor Trelawney reeked of alcohol. She staggered and almost tripped on the stone steps.
"Who is it?" Hermione asked in a low voice.
"It's Professor Trelawney!" Elwyn poked his head out to take a look, and said, as if he had realized something, "Looking at her, she must have just finished making that prophecy."
"What prophecy?" Harry and Hermione asked at the same time.
"A prophecy about the Lord Voldemort. He will choose someone to help him rise. With the help of that chosen person, he will gain unimaginable power and become more powerful and terrifying than ever before!"
Hearing the name of the Lord Voldemort, the atmosphere suddenly became tense.
"How is this possible? Why would the Lord Voldemort come back?" Hermione said worriedly.
"This is obviously ridiculous!" Harry said. "Don't take it to heart. Professor Trelawney must be talking nonsense. She's a liar! She always likes to play tricks and say bad things. Do you remember? She has been predicting my death for an entire semester! "
"No, I think this is a real prophecy!" Elwyn rethought the contents of the prophecy.
Since Peter the Dwarf was dead, it meant that the future had changed. The way the Lord Voldemort would return would also change.
What would he do with the help of the chosen person?
"Alright, let's not talk about this prophecy! Too many strange things have happened today, more than I've seen in the past six months. " Harry turned to look at Hermione and asked eagerly, "I still can't believe that we actually went back in time. Hermione, where did you get that timer? "
"It's called a time converter, Harry!" whispered Hermione. "I got it from Professor Meg the first day we came back. I use it all year long to catch up with all my classes. No one but Elwyn and I knew. Professor Meg made me swear not to tell anyone. She had to write all sorts of letters to the Ministry of Magic so I could have a time turner. She had to tell them that I was a model student, and that I would never use it for anything other than my studies, and that I had been turning it back hour by hour, and that was why I was able to take several classes at the same time. See? "
Hearing Hermione's explanation, Harry nodded, then quickly shook his head.
"What should we do now?"
"I don't know what Dumbledore wants us to do. Why did he tell us to go back six hours? How will this help Sirius? " Hermione turned and looked at Elwyn's gloomy face. She said distractedly, "Elwyn, do you know?"
"I do have an idea. Dumbledore means that something must have happened at this time and he wants us to change it." Elwyn said slowly. "Think about it. I was looking for the marauder map in Professor Lupin's office. Peter Pettigrew was there too. Where were you two?"
"Six hours ago?!" Hermione recalled. "We should be in the common room. Not long after you left, we were knocked out by Peter Pettigrew's Stun Spell. It was Sirius Black who saved us."
"Then, we saw Ron enter the common room with Snape." Harry added. "Snape had the marauder map in his hand. He wanted to capture Sirius and send him to the Dementors. But it didn't take long for you to rush in. Wait a minute, could that be … "
Harry's eyes widened as he stared blankly at Elwyn.
"That's right. That should be the me who came back from the future, not the me at this time!" Elwyn touched his forehead with his left hand and continued. "I saw you two in Professor Lupin's office. It's clear what we should do."
Harry and Hermione nodded. There was a hint of disbelief in their nervous expressions. Both of them still felt that this matter was a little unbelievable.
The three of them had actually been saved by each other from the future.
"Alright, I should go to the common room now and stop Snape from capturing Sirius. You two have to go to Professor Lupin's office to save me!"
Under the dim light, Elwyn looked at Harry and Hermione. Hermione looked terrified, while Harry looked eager.
"After you're done, you two stay in Professor Lupin's office and wait for me to find you!" Elwyn reminded them worriedly. "Remember, don't go to the hall. We can't be seen by our current selves."
"Wait a minute, Elwyn! Peter, we have to capture him. " Harry hurriedly reminded him. "If he dies or escapes, the future will be the same as before we came back. Nothing will change."
"Leave it to me. I know what happened in the Forbidden Forest. I'll think of a way to capture Peter."
"But …" Hermione looked at Elwyn worriedly. She did not want Elwyn to return to the Forbidden Forest at night. It was full of danger.
She tried hard to imagine the eight-eyed giant spiders that were the size of elephants and horses. She tried to imagine how terrifying they were. Also, the description and danger rating in the book "Where Do You Find Magical Creatures" also made Hermione very worried.
From her point of view, it was impossible for young Magi like them to deal with these savage and dangerous creatures of darkness.
Elwyn's actions must be full of danger!
Hermione did not dare to imagine what would happen if something unexpected happened.
"Don't worry, Hermione. I'll come back safely." Seeing Hermione's worried expression, Elwyn walked up and gave her a hug.
