Chapter 1329 Oh~ So it was a token of love~
"Outstanding Youth Role Model... Certificate?" Ron, standing at the very front of the bulletin board, looked like he'd swallowed a slug. "Do they think we're three-year-olds? They think they can make people betray their friends with just a piece of paper?"
Harry, who was next to him, also looked disgusted.
The so-called certificate is just a piece of paper. Although there is a chance that the story will be published... to put it bluntly, it may or may not be published, depending entirely on the Ministry of Magic's mood.
"What a 'generous' reward!" Fred finally squeezed in, turned around and exchanged a glance with George behind him, then the two of them grinned mischievously, as if they had found a new source of amusement.
Hermione watched all of this quietly from outside the crowd.
This "warning and advocacy letter" is more insidious than Umbridge's entry into Hogwarts as a special education commissioner. It does not actively change the school rules, but attempts to change the school's atmosphere.
It uses empty rewards and vague threats to lure or intimidate students into self-censorship or even mutual surveillance. It wants to make the name Vincent Wayne taboo in schools and turn trust between friends into a risky choice.
However, judging from the undisguised mocking expressions of the surrounding students, this sinister intention is at least currently quite unpopular.
Hermione watched as the twins squeezed through the crowd and ran upstairs, instinctively tightening her grip on Goohoo.
Without a doubt, they must have found some new fun.
She turned her head and found that Cedric and Cho were nowhere to be seen.
She gently rubbed her round, chubby belly. "She must have gone on a date again..."
If those things hadn't happened, she and Vincent might have ended up the same way.
Sharing hot cocoa in a quiet corner of the castle, whispering secrets in class away from the professor's gaze, strolling hand in hand through Hogsmeade on weekends, like any ordinary student couple, instead of what we're doing now.
Hermione gently shook her head, suppressing these emotions.
She turned to look at the other side, where Daphne and Astoria were still there, but one of the sisters had a strange look in her eyes, while the other was still as well-behaved and lovely as ever.
Daphne leaned close to her ear, "Missing your husband?"
Hermione was silent for a moment. "I ate a bit too much just now. Shall we change our clothes and go exercise by the Black Lake?"
"Hmm..." Daphne looked down at her sister Astoria, "Alright, we'll keep you company."
Back in the Gryffindor common room, the atmosphere was still lively, with several younger students gathered around a projection screen.
A student was typing rapidly on the projection screen, while the students around him chattered, offering suggestions:
"The report states that the constellation observed at the Astronomical Tower today closely resembles the silhouette of Vincent Wayne, the Dark Lord. It is recommended that the Astronomical Tower be immediately sealed off for investigation!"
"Great! Let's add that Professor Trelawney sneezed three times in a row today, claiming she 'felt the gaze of darkness,' possibly due to remote spellcasting interference from the Dark Lord!"
"And another thing! Pippi the Ghost stole a dozen quill pens and spelled out 'VINCEN-T' in the air, clearly calling himself the Dark Lord's lackey!"
Amidst the laughter, Hermione's lips curled into a slight smile.
Fred and George have really stirred up some trouble this time, managing to mobilize the lion cubs so quickly.
One can imagine that the Ministry of Magic's department, which is specifically responsible for receiving clues, will be inundated with these outrageous "reports" every day in the future, and the relevant staff will probably have a splitting headache.
Hermione walked through the lounge, into the girls' dormitory, and back to her familiar room.
As you push open the door, a warm atmosphere mixed with a faint scent of oranges wafts out.
"You're back?" Lavender's voice came from the direction of her bed.
She and Parvati snuggled in bed, flipping through the latest issue of Witch Weekly, which seemed to be selecting the "Most Charming Smiling Wizard of the Year."
Hermione's eye twitched almost imperceptibly, but she quickly regained her composure.
She put the sleeping Gugu on her bed and covered it with a blanket.
She went to her desk, opened the delicate storage box on the table, took out a white hair tie, and tied her fluffy brown hair into a simple high ponytail.
Instead of changing her clothes, she sat at her desk, looking at the neatly arranged memories of her and Vincent.
Her amber eyes fell on the spotless Order of Merlin Second Class Medal, an honor she received in her first year for helping Quirrell stop him from stealing the Philosopher's Stone.
To her now, the medal is nothing but trash; if it weren't for its connection to Vincent, she would have thrown it in the trash long ago.
Her fingertips lightly traced the surface of the table, resting on a black notebook.
The cover features only a white magic rune, and a question mark belonging to Vincent.
Hermione opened the notebook, which contained neither profound magical theories nor alchemical manuscripts, but rather simple drawings of little figures.
The first page reads "A Crow Takes an Airplane," with a little figure in the middle performing a flying kick, and detailed breakdowns of the action next to it.
She turned to the second page, this time featuring a kicking motion titled "Tornado Destroys Parking Lot".
Then comes "Spider Eats Fly," a strange and unpredictable grappling technique.
Then came the antelope leaping, the elephant kicking, the angry octopus, the sloth kicking, the mischievous monkey unleashing its power, the cunning rabbit striking, the whale swishing its tail...
The further you flip through the pages, the more outrageous it becomes, even featuring jaw-dropping moves such as "one tiger killing two sheep," "sweeping the ground with a sickle," "cracking walnuts with a head," and "screw-rolling fist."

Hermione couldn't help but chuckle. Every time she flipped through this notebook, she couldn't help but laugh, because it reminded her of those carefree times filled with whimsy and laughter.
"What are you looking at?" Lavender and Parvati finally looked away from their copies of the Witch Weekly. "Why are you laughing so happily?"
“It’s nothing.” Hermione closed the notebook and carefully put it back in its place. “Vincent’s old… um… research notes.”
"Oh~" Parvati drawled, blinking her big eyes, "So it's a token of love~"
Hermione blushed and got up to go to the wardrobe. She looked at the wardrobe, which was not big, but it was enchanted with a Seamless Stretch Charm, and its capacity was amazing.
She glanced at the various styles of dresses and picked out a pure white long tracksuit.
Wearing a thick, soft hooded sweatshirt and slim-fitting trousers, she looked exceptionally refreshed and full of energy, with her good figure, cultivated through long-term regular exercise and a careful diet, subtly revealed.
"Are you going to exercise?" Lavender looked her up and down. "This outfit looks good on you; white suits you very well."
"Hmm." Hermione stretched her arms and legs a little. "I ate a bit too much. Let's go for a walk or a run by the Black Lake."
She looked at her two roommates, who were lazily curled up on the bed, and asked, "What about you? Want to come along?"
Ravendra glanced down at her slightly protruding belly under the covers, then immediately threw off the covers and jumped out of bed. "Go! I'm going to lose that belly fat! Parvati, are you coming?"
“Let’s go.” Parvati also got out of the warm bed. “I haven’t been exercising much lately, so this is a good opportunity to make up for it all at once.”
She jogged to her wardrobe and took out a light blue long tracksuit. "I haven't worn this new outfit yet! By the way, Hermione, are you really keeping up your figure not just for your husband to see? I've heard that men may not say it, but they're always watching."
Hermione gave a soft snort, her delicate face burning even hotter. "I'm doing this for my health, and... exercise has many benefits, such as keeping your mind clear and helping you think better."
"Oh~" Parvati and Lavender exchanged a smile. "I see~"
