Chapter 138 136. Try
Hermione agreed to Jon's invitation without even thinking about it.
Among these rescued students, Jon's reputation is even higher than that of Dumbledore.
Because it was Jon who brought them out of the castle before knowing who Dumbledore was, and among these people Hermione was the most familiar with Jon.
After all, it was the two of them who made the whole escape plan, and Jon was the one who rescued Hermione. The two became friends naturally.
So Hermione never thought of refusing Jon's invitation.
The next day, after the morning class ended, Jon and Hermione walked out of the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom together.
He didn't take her to any empty classroom. It just so happened that Hagrid invited him to have afternoon tea before the car in the morning. The driver's seat of the carriage was a very good place, with only Hagrid beside him, it was safe and free from other people's disturbance.
"Did you learn the concept of gravity in your Muggle primary school?"
Jon has never attended primary school in the UK, and he is not sure whether the courses in the orphanage before are the same as those in the primary schools outside.
Hermione was a little confused about why Jon would ask such a question. She looked up and thought for a moment. The memory of being an ordinary Muggle student had become blurred in her mind after two years of experience.
But is she a fool or not, she hasn't forgotten all the things she learned in elementary school.
"Gravity? We learned it in the fifth grade." Hermione said firmly, "In the last chapter of the fifth grade science class, the teacher taught us the knowledge related to force, including gravity, friction and The principle of leverage."
Jon is not surprised by this. The UK has always attached great importance to science courses, and there are courses set up from the first grade. It takes a total of six school years. Relatively speaking, there must be a lot of knowledge learned.
"Then do you still have an impression of the concept of gravity?"
Hermione nodded hesitantly.
"I still haven't forgotten what the teacher said..." She turned to look at Jon, "but... what role does this knowledge have in the magic world? The existence of magic means that many of those scientific knowledge will be overturned .”
Jon didn't say it directly, nor did he deny Hermione's words, he just said it casually.
"I just have some ideas on this, and I want to ask you to try it out. Wait until Hagrid's. After that, I will tell you what we are going to do."
They went straight along the corridor of the carriage, and came to the opposite of Dumbledore's principal's office at the end. The door leading to the driver's seat was only ajar, as if Hagrid had left it for Jon on purpose.
He pushed open the door and walked out of the carriage with Hermione.
The breeze dampened by the protective spell blew past them, lifting the corner of the robe and the hair on the forehead.
The carriage was galloping along the lakeside of a large lake, and the wheels rolled over the green and fresh grass without leaving any ruts.
This seemingly ordinary and dilapidated carriage was actually equipped with a lot of magic, otherwise, even if Voldemort didn't want to cut off Dumbledore's last hope, they couldn't have been in exile for so long in this dangerous wizarding world.
"Jon!"
Under the light, the little girl who looked more illusory waved her hands to greet Jon crisply. After seeing them, Hagrid brought out the black tea and small desserts that he had prepared in advance.
"Good afternoon, Jon, I thought you would bring Neville and the others over?" Hagrid smiled and turned his gaze to Hermione, "I know this little girl, her name is Hermione Granger, right? Brave girl. She must be the perfect Gryffindor if that shabby hat can still be sorted."
When Hagrid invited him, Jon told him in advance that he would bring someone with him. Before, Neville Ron and the others had come to the driver's seat of the carriage with Jon to chat with Hagrid, so Hagrid was very concerned about this matter. I don't care.
He just didn't expect that the person Jon brought was Hermione.
Hermione could tell that Hagrid was complimenting her. During the summer vacation when she was working in the bookstore, she had peeked at the banned book "Hogwarts: A History of the School". Naturally, she was very clear that Hogwarts would have a sorting session for freshmen. and the qualities each college stands for.
Her face was a little red, and she reached out to stroke the long hair blown in front of her face by the wind.
"I'm not as brave as you say, just call me Hermione."
Jon looked at Gabriel in a group of doubts and asked.
"Why did you come to Hagrid?"
"You all went to class in the morning, Gabriel doesn't want to disturb you, but it's boring in the carriage."
She sounded happy, so instead of saying "I" she called out her own name.
"Then invite Gabriel to come here and chat with him when Hagrid gets into the car for breakfast."
"It's really great here!" She seemed to be chatting happily with Hagrid, completely without the timidity when she first got into the carriage, "Hagrid drove the carriage past a pasture in the morning! There are a lot of cows there, and those who are close Sometimes Gabriel could even touch a cow's horn!"
Seeing that Gabriel didn't feel any discomfort after coming to the carriage, Jon couldn't help but smile.
Who doesn't like a child who is innocent and innocent?
The driving seat of the carriage is very large, and it is more than enough for Hagrid to lie down here. Now even if there are more Jon and Hermione, and Gabriel, who is in a ghost state and does not take up space at all, it still looks very spacious.
Hagrid knew that Jon and Hermione came here for some experiments, so he didn't bother them, but Gabriel and Gabriel's other half in the driving seat used transfiguration to conjure a long-handled fishing net, trying to drive at high speed. In the event of an accident, a fish was taken from the big lake near them.
"I heard from Neville that you learned the Levitation Charm very quickly, and you have fully mastered it on the third day after you first arrived in the carriage?" Jon asked.
Hermione also drew her own wand, she nodded.
"Casting spells with a wand is not as difficult as casting spells with hand gestures. In addition, there are many similarities between the two different methods of casting spells, so it is easier for me to learn. Both Hanton and Ariel have also learned the Levitation Curse, Professor Flitwick Very pleased with the progress.”
Jon looked at Hermione, and he asked tentatively.
"Then when you were learning the Levitation Charm, did you ever think about what kind of force this spell created to act on objects and make them float?"
