Ivan can probably guess what Elaine wants to say to himself, and it's what she wants to be with them.
But he didn't expect that Hermione and Gabriel were also in the room.
Hermione was sitting in the corner, dividing the books in front of her into two piles and sorting them out.
Gabriel was lying on her bed, stretching out her fingers to tease Crookshanks, a fluffy ginger cat.
"How did you guys slip out?" Ivan asked, sitting next to Hermione.
"Mrs. Weasley probably forgot that she asked Ginny and me to change the sheets yesterday!" said Hermione, throwing a copy of Divination and Graphics on the pile of books, and The Rise and Fall of the Dark Arts on the On another pile, "So there's nothing Gabriel and I need to do."
"Don't worry, the layout is perfect now, there's no need to pack anything, my parents will love the Burrow." Gabriel picked up Crookshanks, hugged her tightly, and then Seemingly puzzled, he murmured softly, "It's strange, why is it different from when I hugged it a few nights ago?"
Crookshanks purred dissatisfiedly and tried to escape, but he couldn't escape Gabriel's warm embrace.
Seeing its pitiful appearance, Ivan couldn't help but flinched back.
It would be terrible for Gabriel to know that it was not Crookshanks who hugged him the night before!
But the other two people in this room knew about it, and the most troublesome one was Elaine.
Sure enough, when Ivan turned his head, he saw Elaine's "bad intentions" gaze.
"It feels different. Maybe the cat you slept with was not Crookshanks that night, but a stray cat that broke in from outside! Hmph, it's definitely not a good cat to sneak into a girl's bedroom at night." She said slowly, Showing two canine teeth, he stared at Aiwen threateningly, "Don't let me meet that cat, or I'll die"
"Stop, Elaine, don't bite the cat, it's unhygienic and cruel. Whether it's a wild cat or not, we should treat it better. It's wrong to abuse a cat." Aiwen felt that what he said was too inexplicable, and hurriedly shifted The topic said, "Where's Mrs. Weasley? Didn't she ask you and Ginny to help in the kitchen?"
"She forgot to buy potatoes, so she went out with Fleur to buy them, as if anyone loves that stuff." Elaine said, staring at Ivan, "Ginny went to find Harry, and I wanted to go too Looking for you in the warehouse, but Hermione told me you'd be up in a minute, so I'll just wait here, and I have something to say to you."
"If it's about going with us, the answer is no, your uncle doesn't agree, I can't"
"I'm already an adult, and I don't need to go through his decision on everything. If he disagrees, I will run away from home."
As Elaine spoke, she approached Ivan, her bright wine-red eyes becoming deeper and deeper.
She opened her mouth wide, as if as long as Ai Wen dared to say no, she would immediately bite him.
Ai Wen leaned back and gently poked Hermione, motioning for her to help persuade Elaine, but he immediately withdrew his hand: Hermione dropped "The Monster Book of Monsters" on the ground, and the book broke free from the binding Its belt slammed forward fiercely, and Elaine yelled and hid aside.
But she was still a step too slow, "Monster Book of Monsters" was biting fiercely at the hem of Elaine's robe, and burrowed inside.
"Sorry, sorry!" cried Hermione, rushing to help, trying to grab the book.
Gabriel also came to help, and Crookshanks took the opportunity to escape from her. He jumped onto the balcony, looked back at the messy people contemptuously, and yelled, as if to say stupid human beings, and then He rushed out gently.
By the time Ivan re-bundled the "Monster Book of Monsters", the room was already in chaos.
"Sorry, I just want to decide which books we're going to take with us when we go out," said Hermione, carefully placing "The Monster Book of Monsters" on the table, "I don't need this one, but I'm not sure, we Will you encounter many ancient runes, maybe Aiwen's runes are good, but just to be on the safe side, you should bring this one with you."
As she spoke, she threw a copy of "Magic Phonics" on the larger pile of books, and picked up "Hogwarts, a School History".
"Well, this book is also very practical, there are many details about Hogwarts in it, well, I think I'll take Hogwarts, a school history, although we don't go back to school anymore, But if I don't bring it, I'm afraid I will feel inappropriate, what were you talking about just now?"
"I want to go with you!" Elaine said immediately, "I won't go back to my uncle alone."
"Okay!" Aiwen sighed, "Karesis doesn't agree with you to set off with us, but listen to me, Elaine, his order is actually not important, because I didn't fully get my parents Agree, the key is yourself, do you already fully understand what will happen if you follow us?"
"It's clear that I'm not afraid of death, and I'm ready to fail," Elaine said. "Don't forget our family's responsibilities. If Voldemort plans to use the magic he stole from our family, I have the right to stop him. And, besides, I am friends with you, you have helped me, Aiwen, I want to help too"
"Then count yourself in."
"I want to go too, and I also want to fight Voldemort." Gabriel said suddenly, "I won't go back until my sister's wedding is over!"
"No, you have to go back to France." Ivan said with a headache, "I repeat, we are not going on an outing, but fighting Voldemort. This is not a child's play. I know you all lack courage and awareness, but You can't die needlessly, your strength is too weak, Gabriel, the most important thing for you now is to go back to school and finish your studies. In fact, I think the fewer people we set out to find Horcruxes and keys, the better, so that It's easier to hide, not to be found by Voldemort and Death Eaters, we can't confront them head-on, that's why I didn't agree with Sirius and Lupine to join, I hope you can understand."
Gabriel pouted unhappily, but immediately became happy because Ivan agreed to let her participate in their battle plan discussion.
A few people went upstairs to find Ron, and they heard Ron yelling as soon as they opened the door.
"I'm cleaning, I'm cleaning! Oh, it's you," said Ron, relieved to see them enter the room.
He lay back on the bed, which he seemed to have just gotten out of, and the room was as messy as it had been all week.
