223. Two Hermiones in the lounge
"This, this is too much"
Seeing the situation in front of her, Elaine yelled angrily and desperately.
Today was a rare weekend, and she was standing with Professor McGonagall at the entrance to the Gryffindor common room, which was as crowded as usual.
Excluding the students who were outside breathing fresh air, there were still forty people inside. Some of them were studying, some were playing wizard chess or Gobstone, some were chatting together, and some were reading by themselves.
The problem is, there are only two faces among the forty students: Hermione's, and Daphne's.
Elaine was about to collapse. She had better find out the real Hermione and Daphne among so many people within an hour and a half.
Damn the wizarding world, damn transfiguration, damn Gryffindor, these wizards are crazy.
"Why is there so much transformation water? Professor, is there something wrong?"
"It's the students' trial work." Professor McGonagall said lazily. "Professor Slughorn's course happens to be advanced to this course. Thanks to the generosity of the Shafiq family, the senior students have the medicinal materials to practice. .”
"When Coco drinks the transformation water, doesn't it cause severe pain? She also has to change the model of clothes and make all kinds of messy preparations." Elaine asked unwillingly, "These students are crazy and no one would be so bored."
"Indeed." Professor McGonagall nodded in agreement, "The premise is that Professor Shafiq does not pay five galleons. There are too many students who signed up, and I wasted a lot of time in screening."
"I'm going to kill him"
It's Adair's shit stick again.
"He is your father, at least on the surface." Professor McGonagall took out his pocket watch and looked at it expressionlessly, "You still have one hour and fifteen minutes, I advise you to act quickly, otherwise We’re going to lose.”
"Professor, Professor, you don't like this, right?" Elaine looked at Professor McGonagall hopefully, "This must be against school rules and such a crazy activity, don't you want to stop it?"
"Of course it is against the school rules for students to misuse the transformation water to do evil in private." Professor McGonagall replied nonchalantly, "However, this is an activity approved by the principal, so there is no problem. It is also a part of teaching. Our Defense Against the Dark Arts professor believes that "In the future, there will be frequent water disguise incidents, and it is necessary for students to experience it. The principal also agrees, and I have no reason to object."
"#&~#"
The anchor collapsed again. Alas, why should I say it again?
This scene feels so weird, my scalp is numb, too much Hermione
Wait, Gryffindors don’t have that many girls, most of these lolita are
Damn it, Watson, you've broken through your blind spot, so what does this mean, all Gryffindor women's clothing?
It’s okay, the upper body is about the same, just a skirt, which the Scots would already wear.
After taking several deep breaths, Elaine calmed herself down and began to think about a solution.
Generally speaking, when encountering such a situation where the transformation water is used to confuse the audience, the easiest way to identify is to ask some secrets that only both parties know.
But that also requires the other party to answer seriously.
Even if I think about it on my knees now, Hermione and Daphne will definitely give the wrong answer on purpose.
Moreover, it is really difficult to ask forty people in seventy-five minutes. Each person only has less than two minutes.
Not to mention that these people look and dress exactly the same. Even if they try to use marks to identify them, it is very likely that if Elaine is not careful, the other party will ignore the marks and blend into the crowd. They can also fake marks and pretend to have been interrogated. Rules It didn't say they couldn't use magic.
Although they do not necessarily carry wands that can identify their identities, senior students can use silent spells. This method is inappropriate and wastes too much time.
However, Elaine is not clueless.
But the way she thought about it, Hermione and Daphne would have similar reactions.
If they make a mistake, both of them will lose, so they have to solve this problem first.
Speaking of which, what will be the punishment if you lose this game?
Daphne didn't seem to say
It can't be pregnancy, right?
Elaine's face instantly turned pale when she thought of this, but if she thought about it seriously, this was really possible.
Adair will definitely support it, Dumbledore and Slughorn will probably not object, and Daphne herself
No, she must win
Under Shen Zhong's pressure, Elaine had a flash of inspiration, and she thought of a way to identify Hermione immediately.
The transformation water can completely simulate a person's physical characteristics, plus each of them wears the same Hogwarts uniform.
Theoretically, it is impossible to identify them based on their appearance and grooming.
However, there is something that Hermione holds that is unique and cannot be imitated by anyone, not even Daphne.
Elaine slightly pressed her left wrist guard, feeling fully confident.
"Professor, I want to confirm the rules again." She took out her wand and said, "I can use magic."
"Okay." Professor McGonagall looked at Elaine curiously, "The prerequisite is that it won't hurt anyone."
"Well, no one will be hurt─it's a strong wind."
Elaine's right hand holding the wand swept across, and a strong wind was generated in the room, blowing in all directions and rolling up many things in the lounge.
The pages of the book were turning rapidly, the curtains were flying, the picture frames and decorations on the wall were shaking slightly, and the most important thing was──
Everyone present, except for Professor McGonagall who was wearing a robe and Elaine herself who was casting a spell, everyone's skirts flew up.
The scenery below is unobstructed
Not to mention the tea-squirting audience, no one had time to react. Even Professor McGonagall was stunned, and her skirt flew up for a moment, making it very lively.
"found it"
Ignoring the mess of boxer briefs and men's shorts, Elaine quickly found Hermione among the few real female compatriots.
Humph, even if you wear a uniform outside, how can you possibly wear the same underwear?
As for why Elaine knew what underwear Hermione was wearing today?
Ok
Having been roommates for two years, you know that’s normal, right?
Hermione had seen all the clothes she brought to Hogwarts
After living in Shafiq's house for so long, most of the clothes were bought by the three of them during the summer vacation. How could Elaine not know what clothes Hermione could wear?
She even remembered part of Daphne's clothes.
Moreover, underwear cannot be left in the room like wands and wristbands. With Hermione's personality, it is even more impossible not to wear it.
If Hermione and Daphne switched clothes, Elaine would admit it, but they couldn't think so carefully.
"This leaves only Da, ah, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh..."
"You big pervert"
Before she could be proud for a few seconds, Hermione rushed forward, grabbed Elaine's neck with both hands and shook her violently, causing her to let out a strange moan.
The rest of the students who had regained consciousness also began to whisper, and Professor McGonagall pulled out her wand with an unkind look on her face, conjuring several sticks out of thin air.
These sticks floated in the air, surrounding Elaine for a good beating.
