Chapter 690: Sensitive Professor Trelawney
🕑 Added 2020-02-09 19:22:29 +0000 UTCFleur didn’t sincerely help Evan change his clothes. He had to ask Hermione to come and help, and let Fleur help Gabrielle!
Although the underwear was loose and uncomfortable and kept falling down, until the end, Evan insisted on not taking them off, which made Gabrielle feel relieved.
In fact, she was a little scared that Evan would take off all his clothes...
While the three of them weren't paying attention, Evan looked down and lowered his collar. There was not really anything to look at.
With the help of Fleur and Hermione, Evan and Gabrielle didn't change all their clothes until about ten minutes later.
Fortunately, although Beauxbatons uniform robes were also divided into male and female styles, the difference was not too big.
Evan felt it a little awkward, but not unacceptable.
Because of his size and weight loss, his body had become lighter and less powerful.
However, only the shape and appearance had changed. The magic in the body was still the same.
Evan put the bottle containing the Polyjuice Potion into the cloth bag he carried with him, and followed the three of them out of the carriage.
Now it was time to go to class, and many people came to say hello.
They were all girls from Beauxbatons, familiar with Gabrielle, but Evan didn't know any of them, so he was tired of coping with it.
By his side, the real Gabrielle was evasive, too. That was the first time that the girl had become someone else. She had no experience and was afraid of being discovered.
"Are you two all right?" said Hermione worriedly. "I always feel a little incongruous."
"Relax, we're okay, you go to the Potions class!" said Evan, turning his head to look at Fleur, who had been smirking, "you too, hurry up and report to the Transfiguration class, don't worry about us!"
"Goodbye then, my dear sister!" said Fleur, walking over and kissing Gabrielle's cheek twice.
Evan froze, and so did Hermione! They saw that Gabrielle didn't dodge, accepted the kiss, and even wanted to kiss back…
Evan hurriedly grabbed her, but it was too late, and there was a scream of surprise around them. Many students who had just come out of the Great Hall after breakfast saw this scene.
What they saw, Fleur was actually kissing Evan! And if Gabrielle hadn’t stopped him, Evan would have kissed back. What on earth was going on?!!
Everyone couldn’t believe it. Was there any unspeakable relationship between Fleur and Evan?!!
Evan glared at Fleur with a smile and pulled Gabrielle, who was standing stupefied, to go to the Divination classroom.
Along the way, he repeatedly emphasized with Gabrielle that she was now Evan and asked her to imitate his usual appearance.
Gabrielle paid a lot of attention after that. Until they entered the Divination classroom and sat in their respective seats, there was no incident.
Facts had proved that as a qualified staff, Professor Trelawney was still very dedicated.
When she made those tragic predictions, she didn't always target a certain student simply because she didn't like that student.
Evan had found that she still had a theoretical system to support, and was not talking nonsense.
In previous Divination lessons, Evan, like Harry, had always been the focus of Professor Trelawney’s attention.
All kinds of death predictions and tragic future had emerged in an endless stream.
Most of the young wizards in the classroom were used to it, even numb!
But today, they were surprised to find that Professor Trelawney shifted her prophetic target to Gabrielle and ignored Evan.
During Divination class, they were learning to divine through crystal balls.
In that damn ball, Evan could see nothing except the lines of the desk twisted by the change of light.
The dim light in the professor's room, full of incense and heat, made his eyelids droop and drowsy.
"My dear!" Professor Trelawney suddenly rushed over and awakened Evan.
"Yes, Professor?!" Evan looked at her and said, “Can I help you?”
He was too familiar with Professor Trelawney's look. He thought he would be spared as he became Gabrielle...
But no, Trelawney stared at Evan with her big eyes, looming ominously towards him.
"There's something in your crystal ball, do you see it? Is it like an omen?" she said in an ethereal voice.
"No, I didn't see anything!" Evan replied, prolonging his voice, and sure enough it was the same old story.
But the others suddenly came to their senses and focused all their attention on Evan.
"Professor, what's in Gabrielle's crystal ball?" A girl asked curiously.
"It's a shadow. Although I can't see clearly what’s inside, it is definitely not a good sign," said Professor Trelawney. "My dear, believe me, you will have a tragic fate; maybe it will be….. deathhhhh!”
"Heck!" Hearing her words, the class retreated, with an uneasy expression on their faces.
It was the first time they had seen Professor Trelawney say these things to someone other than Evan. How could Gabrielle have a tragic fate?
If that was the case, it would be because she got in touch with Evan.
"Well, thank you for making my prediction, Professor," said Evan, standing up. "Excuse me … can I go to the bathroom?"
"My dear, you are obviously affected by the special energy vibrations in my classroom, which will make your destiny so clear," said Professor Trelawney. "If you walk away now, I'm afraid you won't have the opportunity to..."
"Sorry, but I'm really in a hurry!" Evan whispered, getting up and leaving the classroom. He ignored Professor Trelawney, who looked depressed, as though she had been deprived of a rich banquet.
Then, she habitually turned to Gabrielle, disguised as Evan, and stared at her crystal ball.
There was nothing that appeared to interest her as usual, and it seemed today's psionic energy was not here.
When she heard that Evan was going to the bathroom, Gabrielle thought of something and was a little worried...
"Professor, I want to go, too!" she said hastily and ran out of the classroom, leaving the other students looking at one another.
If Evan was going to the bathroom now, he would be at the boys’ or the girls’. That was a problem.
However, he did not intend to do so, but just did not want to stay in front of Professor Trelawney.
He suddenly realized that Professor Trelawney was very sensitive. Although she could not have known that Evan and Gabrielle had exchanged identities, it was not good to keep her staring at the crystal ball to predict. Who knew what terrible words she would say? It was not good to arouse suspicion!
Those predictions were highly unlikely to come true, but the sudden appearance of Gabrielle's prophecy was abnormal in itself.
He was going to return at the end of class, but a few seconds later, Gabrielle suddenly came after him.
For the next half an hour or so, the two of them stood at the top of the North Tower, looking at the foot of the lake outside the window and the wide Forbidden Forest, chatting about the past while at it. Time passed in a quiet and leisurely atmosphere. Neither of them was in a hurry to return, and Professor Trelawney did not send anyone out to look for them.
As for why it took so long to go to the toilet; that made the others guess blindly. They would know later anyway.
