The Silent Witch of Hogwarts

Chapter 670 Awakening

When Loila woke up again, she saw a familiar room roof.

Ah—is this my own home?

Loila blinked slightly, looking around with a hint of surprise.

There was no one else in the room.

That's quite amazing—after all, she originally thought she would be sent to a place like St. Mungo's Hospital, or perhaps the Order of the Phoenix or the Ministry of Magic.

It turns out it was in my own home?

I think I saw Mr. Parkinson's before I lost consciousness —

The thought of this gave Loila a headache.

Why did I faint again? — I thought I had overcome this problem after so long, but now it seems I haven't.

It must be because I'm not feeling well—I'm not in a good state—that must be it—

Loila calmed herself down slightly, then, as if remembering something, she quickly touched her chest.

The Space Extension Book is still there—I wonder if Bella is still inside?

Could it have secretly run away? Or was it thrown out when I threw the dragon?

I don't think so.

Anyway, Loila didn't remember it—after all, if Bella were thrown out, she would definitely scream, right?

Hmm—not necessarily, after all, she was frozen in place by herself.

Thinking of this, Loila quickly turned to that page in the book, and looking at Bella in the picture, she breathed a slight sigh of relief.

It seems there probably isn't any.

"You're awake?" At that moment, the door to the room was slowly pushed open, and Miss Nagini walked in carrying a plate with a bowl of porridge on it.

"Miss Nagini—are you alright?" In Loila's memory, they had crashed into the shattered glass together.

And Miss Nagini is still ahead of us.

"It's nothing," Nagini said with a light smile. "Just some glass, only a few scratches."

"It was your sudden fainting that startled us all."

Us?

"Is there anything else that's bothering you?"

"No—no." Loila's calf had even fully healed, and strictly speaking, her fainting was due to being too nervous.

"Right—right, what happened after that?" Loila pursed her lips and asked quickly, "I remember meeting Mr. Parkinson's—"

"Mr. Parkinson has us leaving." Nagini paused, giving Loila a slightly strange look. "He said there was something—a secret operation."

"It's still Dumbledore's secret operation."

"Is that true?"

Mr. Parkinson! You clearly said you wouldn't talk about this! Why are you telling everyone you meet? Although Miss Nagini and I are quite familiar with each other—this is making me distrust you a bit!

"Ah—that—" Loila pursed her lips a little awkwardly, "That was something I casually—casually said to Mr. Parkinson's before."

"He—he must have taken this seriously—"

"Tsk tsk." Nagini curled her lip. "You're really good at deceiving your friends."

"Mr. Parkinson is not my friend."

Nagini paused for a moment after hearing this, then said, "He would be very sad if he knew?"

It's probably only when you rashly treat someone as a friend that you hurt them, right?

Becoming friends is a very serious matter; it's not something you can just call someone a friend.

Loila did not correct Miss Nagini, but instead asked, "Then—what about Mr. Lupin and the others?"

"They're fine too," Nagini nodded. "They even got out much earlier than us."

"And they also took the Horcrux."

That's wonderful! — Loila breathed a slight sigh of relief. Although the process was fraught with difficulties, the result was good. Not only did they obtain the Horcrux, but they also captured Voldemort's henchman, and nothing unexpected happened.

Loila thought this was probably the best outcome.

"Then—" Nagini pursed her lips as if she had thought of something: "There's something that's not so—happy—that I also need to tell you."

"It's not that... happy?" Loila blinked.

"Gringotts sent us a bill," Nagini said, placing the bill on the bed.

"Although they did not pursue our trespassing, they are demanding compensation for our damage to the vault."

"Huh?" Loila slapped the bed angrily upon hearing this. "We didn't vandalize the vault!"

"It was clearly Voldemort who did it—it was clearly Voldemort!"

"We just—we just slightly cracked the vault door, and then—then fought a dragon—and finally smashed some glass or something—"

"They actually have to ask us—" Loila said, feeling a little embarrassed, and soon she was speechless.

"That's it anyway." Nagini shrugged helplessly. "Here's the amount of compensation."

"Hmm————" Loila lowered her head slightly, and her lips twitched slightly after seeing the number.

They actually want to pay 2,000 Galleons in compensation?

Two thousand—two thousand Galleons!

If it's just deducted from my previous salary, I probably won't be able to pay it back in my entire life!

"Don't worry about that," Nagini reassured her. "I've already asked Miss Siri."

She said the Hamilton family would cover the cost.

"Hmm!"

"How embarrassing!" Loila pursed her lips and said, "Well, thank you so much."

"There's no need to thank her," Nagini said, her expression suddenly turning a little strange. She tilted her head slightly and added, "We gave her something too."

"thing?"

"Hmm—" Nagini said, her eyes slightly unfocused, "Your socks—"

"My socks?"

"Miss Shirley seems very interested—so I—"

"You?"

"Give her the socks you were wearing at the time."

"She was even willing to give an extra thousand Galleons."

"What is this?!" Loila stared at Nagini in shock, her pointed ears standing up high.

"My socks—well—they must smell awful!" Loila said embarrassedly, "How could they—"

"She—you—"

"She didn't find it smell bad or anything—" Nagini said as if recalling something, "She even said it smelled like lavender."

"I didn't smell it."

"Um?"

Loila's lips twitched slightly as she looked at Nagini with a shocked expression.

"Miss Nagini, you—you did it too?"

"I didn't," Nagini quickly waved her hands. "When I take off my socks—I can't possibly stop breathing, can I—"

Loila blushed deeply upon hearing this, and she grabbed the pillow behind her and threw it at Nagini.

"Miss Nagini and Miss Shirley are both perverts!" she shouted, pulling the blanket up and hiding herself behind it.

What on earth is all this?!
