Chapter 173 Hermione’s Plan

After returning from the hospital, Ron seemed to be in better condition. He no longer made any noise when sleeping at night, and his energy during the day also became better.

However, he occasionally falls into a daze and wakes up suddenly when someone calls him, as if he has fallen asleep.

"Ron? Ron?!" Harry shouted next to Ron.

"Ah? Ah! What's wrong?" Ron suddenly became alert and almost stuffed the sausage on his fork into his nose.

"What were you thinking about just now?" Harry asked, his eyes worried.

"No, it's nothing, it's okay." Ron said vaguely as he spread the sausage on ketchup and stuffed it into his mouth.

Then, he looked at the plate in front of him. The knife and fork were stained with ketchup, and he seemed to have drawn a strange pattern in his unintentional smearing.

"Nothing." Ron repeated, inserting a sausage again, messing up the pattern, and then ate the sausage.

"As long as it's okay, do you want to come and watch the training later?" Harry said.

He will go to the stadium for training later. There are only a few days left before Gryffindor's next game. Recently, Wood has been squeezing their time like crazy.

Ron often comes to see them train, and Hermione sometimes comes over when she feels she is tired from studying and needs to relax.

She was obviously full of energy today and went to the library early in the morning.

As for Guan Qiong, he has no interest in Quidditch, so naturally he will not come to see Harry train.

"Of course I'm going. Don't you have new tactical arrangements today?" Ron said.

"But Wood has a new tactic every week." Harry said weakly.

He felt like he was going crazy with Wood's new tactics. Even Snape's potion ratios and brewing methods were not so difficult to remember.

At least they have rules.

"Isn't this time different? Wood said there will be new breakthroughs this time." Ron was full of expectations.

"Wood's new tactics every time are new breakthroughs." Harry sighed, but seeing Ron like this, he felt relieved again.

It's probably just that the recent study tasks have been too heavy, so Ron is too tired. Let him watch a Quidditch game, maybe he will become more energetic.

Harry thought to himself.

On the other side, Hermione was not in the library. She dragged Guan Qiong all the way to Myrtle's bathroom.

"We will definitely succeed this time." Hermione said to Guan Qiong with confidence, showing him her preparations.

In the private room of the bathroom, in addition to the sensitizer that Hermione had boiled before and placed in a bottle, there was also a potion.

The potion was blue in color, with white stuff inside, rolling around like noodles, and like clouds in the sky, lengthening and shortening from time to time, dispersing and converging.

"What is this?" Guan Qiong asked Hermione.

"Quick air freshener."

"?"

Guan Qiong looked at Hermione. The light spots in his hands condensed into a big question mark, floating in front of the two of them.

"This is the inspiration I found from the book I read a few days ago." Hermione explained, her face lit up with excitement.

"Lockhart has too many early warning things on his body. His rings, his necklaces, and his arm studs all have the effect of warning different things, which makes many methods ineffective against him.

"

"But, in the book "How to Cast Magic Unknown", I saw a method."

"That is, volatilizing some potions into the air." Hermione said, pointing to the quick air freshener in the cauldron.

"Medicines in the air in a large area will cause some early warning magic to malfunction, and even if the early warning magic issues a warning, it will not have any impact. As long as he walks into that area and breathes the air, he will definitely be attacked."

Guan Qiong was a little surprised. He didn't expect Hermione to find such a way.

At this time, the excited Hermione took out a small slice of packaged lemon from her pocket.

She removed the liquid from the crucible and squeezed a drop of juice from a lemon into the instant air freshener.

The quick air freshener swallowed the lemonade, then began to boil, and from the bursting bubbles, a fresh smell continued to rise. After a while, the entire bathroom was filled with the smell of lemon.

"This household potion is originally used to quickly freshen the air. It will spread the smell of the things you put into the entire space at an alarming speed." Hermione said with a smile.

"I have tried it before. After adding some special herbs to the sensitizer, you only need to smell it to produce the same effect. Although it will be weaker, it is enough."

Guan Qiong smelled the smell of lemon in the air, and from the perspective of magic, a hazy layer of magic appeared in the surrounding air, just like the elf magic he had seen Dobby cast before.

"A very bold and genius idea." Guan Qiong gave Hermione a thumbs up, and the light flashed next to it to form a compliment.

It is indeed a very interesting combination idea, and it also has good effects.

As far as Guan Qiong knows, the way some early warning magic works is actually by observing the contrast between the properties of the object itself and the surrounding environment.

Just like Guan Qiong's magic perspective, he saw a strange magic circuit in a certain place, which meant there was a problem in that place.

But Hermione's method was able to bypass this detection.

Because there are problems in the entire environment, and this is the most easily ignored area.

For example, Guan Qiong was looking around now. If he hadn't noticed and noted the hazy magic state of the fresheners scattered in the air, he wouldn't have discovered any problems.

In a desert, you will notice the existence of green space at a glance, but in a forest, you will ignore it.

Moreover, as Hermione said before, even if Lockhart's early warning magic item worked, by the time he discovered it, he would have already entered the environment and inhaled the sensitizer.

"I'm going to take action in a few days. It's during the Quidditch match. At that time, all the students have gone to watch the match. There are no people in Hogwarts Castle, and there is no need to worry about being influenced by others. And Lockhart

I also chose the place I passed by, it's in the corridor on the third floor."

Hermione confidently told Guan Qiong that she had obviously made all the plans.

The third floor of Hogwarts Castle is where the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor's office is located. As soon as Lockhart steps out, he will be immediately attacked.

It can be said that as long as there are no accidents, there is no possibility of failure of this plan.
