The Silent Witch of Hogwarts

Chapter 663 The Lively Gringotts

"Good morning—oh?"

When Loira walked in, the pull ring visibly paused for a moment.

"Miss Hamilton—what brings you here again today—"

"A little...a little thing..." Even Loila felt a little embarrassed. She pursed her lips, looked away, and blinked. "I suddenly remembered...I forgot to take something."

"So—so let's do it again."

"Is that so?" The pull tab paused for a moment, then said, "Please, then."

Seeing that he didn't ask any further questions, Luo Yili subconsciously pursed her lips.

Following the pull ring, Loila easily arrived at the door of her vault once again.

Seeing him intently opening the vault, Loila could only silently apologize in her heart.

(Please remember 1219.m.k.com for the fastest chapter updates.)

She coughed and then gently took out her wand.

When the pull ring wasn't paying attention, he tapped the back of the head with the tip of the cane.

"Clatter".

The pull ring swayed and fell to the ground.

Loila didn't use any dangerous spells, of course. She just used the Imperishable Charm to make Raring sleep a little longer, since the effects of the Stunning Charm were still a bit too weak.

Thank you, Mr. Pull-tab! I'll definitely buy the financial product you mentioned next time!

Loila twitched her ears, then focused her attention on Miss Nagini. According to the necklace, she should already be—

"Loila." Miss Nagini's voice came as she emerged from the shadows.

"You arrived a little earlier than I expected."

"I—I don't want Miss Nagini to be alone for too long." Loira's answer made Nagini smile gently. She slowly asked, "Then how should we get there?"

"You mustn't turn into a snake."

First of all, the minecart is unlikely, as Roy had absolutely no idea how to operate it—even after watching the ring-operation demonstration twice in two days, he still couldn't figure it out.

Therefore, we should adopt a more traditional approach.

That's a broom.

Looking at the newest fire crossbow before her, Loila felt a pang of apprehension. After all, for her, both operating and riding a fire crossbow was extremely dangerous.

"You mean riding a broomstick?" Nagini looked at Loila, puzzled, a suspicious expression on her face. "You can ride a broomstick?"

"No—I can't." Loila shook her head and looked at Miss Nagini. "But Miss Nagini, you—you can, can't you?"

"I do know it—that's for sure." Nagini couldn't help but feel a little guilty. She had learned it not long ago when she was bored at Hogwarts—but in terms of skill...

She hasn't tried bringing anyone with her yet.

"It's okay—I—I believe you." Loila looked at Miss Nagini seriously and nodded. After all, besides trust, there didn't seem to be any other good options right now.

"I don't even really trust myself—" Nagini met Loila's expression, nodded helplessly, and then said, "Then you'd better be prepared to use your wand to save us."

"Hmm—I'll be ready." Loila gripped her wand tightly as she sat behind Nagini, then wrapped both arms tightly around Nagini's waist.

How terrifying!

As she felt the broom trembling and flying, Loila's fear intensified.

"So high—so high!"

"It just took off!" Nagini hadn't finished speaking when the broom started shaking, startling Loila into letting out a piercing scream.

The screams echoed through the underground vault cavern of Gringotts, and soon reached the ears of the others who were also sitting on the minecart.

"Gringotts—are there still female ghosts?" Lupin's Death Eater subconsciously pursed his lips.

"It must have been my imagination, right?" the fairy said sheepishly, looking startled by the inexplicable scream.

Bella, Tonks's companion, remained silent, maintaining her "cold" and "crazy" persona.

Out of necessity, she even lay down on the mine cart.

"How much longer?" After waiting a while, she asked impatiently, "Do you know what the consequences are for delaying that person's mission?"

"We'll be there soon, Ms. Lestrange," the fairy said hastily.

"Hmph." Tonks snorted, only to see Lupin's expression as he tried his best to suppress a laugh.

She couldn't help but purse her lips, but she also felt a little helpless.

They set off early this morning and arrived at Gringotts, their purpose, of course, being to take the golden cup from the vault.

So far, everything has gone smoothly. Tonks' disguise as Magus has not been discovered, and just as Bill's intelligence indicated, Bella's vault does not require a key to open.

This actually makes things easier for us thieves.

But just when Tonks and Lupin felt everything was going smoothly, a rather unexpected incident occurred in Gringotts.

"You—" The fairy was clearly taken aback when she saw the two people walk in.

The reason was simple: Bella Lestrange and a strange man walked into Gringotts.

The man didn't seem to care, but Bella—didn't she just arrive?

"What's wrong?" Bella asked with a defiant expression. "Are you going to notify the Ministry of Magic?"

"6

"She was met with a deathly silence; the fairies looked at each other, unsure of what to say."

"Um—" Finally, the leading goblin slowly said, "Ms. Lestrange—we Gringotts have always upheld the principle of serving the public."

"No matter who you are, we will serve you as always."

"Then take us to the vault," Bella said, pursing her lips. "If you delay us, I'll burn Gringotts to the ground."

"I know—I know." The fairy pursed her lips and said, "But before that—I have a question for you."

"What's the problem?" Bella frowned.

"Do you have any twin sisters or anything like that?"

"No," Bella said, glancing around at the approaching security guards. "What are you trying to do?" she asked.

"Ready to attack me?" She smiled and slowly drew her wand.

"You wouldn't want to do this."

Her cold, slightly manic demeanor caused the Gringotts staff to stop in their tracks.

Finally, the fairy in charge spoke again: "Ms. Lestrange—I have something very strange to tell you."

"We just—we just saw you."

"6

Bella was taken aback.

"What I mean is—you were just here, and—you just went down—"

"You idiot, that's not me at all!" Bella snapped, realizing what was happening immediately. "It's an imposter!"

"But—she looks exactly like you," the fairy said. "We don't know either—"

"Who among you is the real one and who is the fake one?"
