The Chinese girl from Hufflepuff is both timid and brave

The sun in early September is not as hot as in midsummer, and the stadium is warm in the sun after nine o'clock.

Sun Zhu couldn't help but yawn. Cedric, who was walking in front of her, turned his head slightly and said, "You really didn't get enough rest, okay?"

Sun Zhu simply raised his head halfway towards the sun, squinted his eyes and said, "Since you've figured it out, I'll admit it..."

He stopped, glanced at the sun that had already appeared above the clouds, and smiled, "Although you don't look very energetic, you seem to be in a good mood."

Sun Zhu lazily opened one eye and looked at him: "Yes, if you hadn't been so helpful to the students who were lagging behind just now, I would be in a better mood now."

Cedric pointed to a place not far away: "There's a rest area next to the stands over there, do you want to go over there and rest for a while?"

Sun Zhu looked in the direction he pointed, and then he noticed that they had unknowingly walked to the edge of the training ground.

"Madam Hooch will see it." She was tempted, but she still had her reasoning.

"She won't always keep an eye on one student." Cedric shrugged. "Actually, Senior Cecilia told me about this location. She said that when Captain Field was watching them train like crazy, she and Senior Anna would hide here for a while. Of course, there are more people hiding here than just Hufflepuffs. This is a secret base that everyone knows about."

"What? You guys were slacking off during training!" Sun Zhu pointed at Cedric while looking over there, "I'm going to tell Captain Field!"

Cedric raised his hands upon hearing this: "Can I beg for mercy on behalf of Senior Sister Cecilia?"

Sun Zhu slowly moved over there with the broom in his hand. He glanced at Cedric who was pretending to repent and said seriously, "Why don't you beg for mercy for yourself? It was you who leaked the news."

"Well, I think in your heart, Senior Cecilia may have a higher status than me." He looked hurt, "For her sake, you will be more soft-hearted."

Sun Zhu stopped and looked at him for a moment. Seeing that he had his eyes downcast and looked depressed, he simply threw the broom into his arms and pulled him to the lounge.

"Student Cedric, I think we must have a frank talk." She looked around the lounge and confirmed with the system that there were no other outsiders here before she spoke to the confused Cedric.

Cedric put the broom away silently, lowered his head slightly to look into her eyes, and said very seriously, "Please speak."

Sun Zhu tilted his neck and looked at him for a few seconds, but was the first to give in: "Why don't you just sit down first."

He is so tall!

Hearing this, he sat down obediently, then looked up at Sun Zhu who had a tangled face, and said softly: "You don't have to feel any burden when talking to me. I will accept whatever you say."

Sun Zhu looked away and asked helplessly, "Do you know that I have many secrets from you? Why do you trust me so much?"

"Intuition." He said frankly, "Everyone has secrets. You have no obligation to tell me your secrets."

"Hey... How can you make friends based on intuition?" Sun Zhu turned to look at him, "There are many dangers in this world, and you need to be careful of many people and things."

"At least, I don't have to be wary of you. I think I still have this judgment ability."

"But Cedric, do you know me well?" She shook her head. "Perhaps, once you know me well enough, you won't think I'm worthy of your...trust."

"How do you think I know you well?" He seemed to have thought about this question long ago. "I know your family situation, some of your friends, some of your hobbies... What else do you think I need to know but don't know?"

"I... I can't tell you now. There are some things I haven't thought through yet, so I'm not sure if you have thought through them either." She looked away and sighed, "At least I won't be able to confirm some answers until the freshmen enter next semester."

He seemed a little surprised when he heard this, and asked her again to confirm: "After the next semester starts?"

"Yes, at least until then. And now I have a lot of very important things to do. If I don't solve these things, talking about other things will be wishful thinking." She said simply: "You understand what I'm saying, right?"

Cedric shook his head: "I just didn't expect it... I thought we had to wait until graduation at least."

Sun Zhu was stuck for a moment before he reacted: "Hey, this is just the earliest time. It is possible that I won't be able to figure out the answer until graduation. You..."

"Well, I understand." He nodded quickly. "You can take your time to think about it. But can you tell me what you need to do now? Is there anything I can help with?"

Sun Zhu was a little stunned. She really couldn't tell anyone what she was busy with.

Tell them she was trying to fight the Dark Lord and save the world?

Even my dad wouldn't believe it.

Even if they believed her, they would probably just want to stop her. After all, this is definitely not something a first-year student should do.

"If you don't want to talk about it, you don't have to answer me." He added, "I'm just worried that you don't look like you've had enough rest. Maybe it's because you're too busy. If there's anything I can share, don't forget to tell me."

"Okay...I will." She nodded subconsciously, but couldn't help asking again: "I don't tell you anything, but you still want to help me, don't you think you are stupid?"

"Maybe." He seemed a little distressed, "I can't be smart in front of you."

"...I take back what I just said. Whoever treats you as a fool is the real fool."

"Host." The system's voice suddenly appeared, "I don't mean to disturb you, but I still want to tell you that Dumbledore has just finished reading your letter."

Sun Zhu subconsciously held his breath and was about to ask something, but he glanced at Cedric beside him and pulled his sleeve and walked out.

"If we don't go out now, Madam Hooch will think we've skipped class..."

"Well, it's almost time to end the get out of class." He glanced at his mechanical watch and said, "Did training go well today?"

"Oh." Sun Zhu nodded seriously, "Of course, thanks to you."

As she walked, she listened to the system's real-time broadcast of what was happening in the principal's office.

"Principal Dumbledore has read your letter."

"He ate a lemon Sherbet."

"He looked at the crown you sent him."

"Oh, he ate another lemon sherbet."

"Did he do anything else besides eating candy?" Sun Zhu couldn't help but ask.

"He also poured himself a cup of black tea." The system said, "According to my calculations, Headmaster Dumbledore ate a total of 7 lemon snowballs."

Sun Zhu looked up at the sky, speechless.
