Hufflepuff never works overtime

Hearing the other party's compromise, Hermione's head clicked like a chicken pecking rice, "I promise, I will come back to you after talking with her!"

Faise pushed the head that was deliberately close to her with twinkling eyes back with her fingers, "Okay..."

Chapter 130 Six

""Dreadful Denizens of the Deep"/Dreadful Denizens of the Deep/...It seems to be this book?" Faith tilted her head hesitantly, she had read quite a lot of books about magical animals before—— It’s because Irene has almost no time to accompany her, and the second is that these kinds of books basically have a lot of illustrations.

She had already searched for three books in this area, but none of them contained relevant content. Faith couldn't help but feel a little lost.

She stood on tiptoe and stretched out her hand, trying to reach the extra thick book on the top shelf.

"You better be what I want!"

The fingertips touched the side ridge of the book, and the blond girl's expression suddenly became happy, and her high tiptoes were about to cramp, and she managed to buckle the tightly packed book out.

In fact, using the magic wand in the robe, she could easily let the out-of-reach books fly down by itself, but Faith felt that it was unnecessary!

Raising her head, she could already see that the books inlaid in it had moved a lot outwards. Faith breathed a sigh of relief, stretched her limbs on the spot and hopped twice, so as not to cause leg cramps in her subsequent struggle.

I don't know if the joy in her heart was heard by the book that was about to be 'caught', or if the jumping action was too violent, the thick book tilted outward inch by inch, and finally, under the effect of inertia, it slammed into Feisi His head then fell to the floor with a loud 'boom'.

"hiss……"

Faith couldn't help crying out in pain, but she thought that if Mrs. Pince found out that she had smashed the book, instead of being forgiven, she would be dragged by the collar and thrown out of the library.

She could only squat on the ground in pain, and rubbed her hands vigorously where she was hit, as if as long as she rubbed fast enough, the pain would not catch up with her.

"Damn it... If it's useless, I'll burn you as firewood!"

It took a long time for Faise to recover, the corners of her eyes overflowed with a little sparkle, she just wanted to pick up the torn book that made people angry, when she found that between the tears in her eyes, on the yellowed pages was exactly an angry Stare at the giant snake.

"Basilisk/?"

Lady Luck seemed to have finally realized that she had forgotten this miserable little guy for too long. Faith was so shocked by the discovery of a blessing in disguise that she even wished to rush back immediately to share this miracle with Hermione.

Since the borrowing places of both of them had been exhausted, Faise had no choice but to write down the important content by hand copying.

Indeed, as Hermione reasoned, the basilisk is a man-made black magic creature with powerful mana. Its fangs are extremely poisonous, and any target it sees with its big eyes will be killed directly. The natural enemy is the crowing of the rooster, also driven by the Parseltongue.

"No wonder Sister Weasley has a picture of her killing a chicken in her memory..."

It has to be said that this kind of exploration is really addictive. Faise felt that her quill was moving very fast, and her efficiency was much faster than taking notes in class.

In less than half an hour, she extracted all the important information on the parchment.

Satisfied, she closed the heavy book cover. Faith, who had learned her lesson this time, flicked the magic wand in her hand, and a vacant space was automatically allocated on the loose bookshelf, and the books in her hand returned to where they should be. s position.

The full harvest made her walk a little lighter, and she returned to the infirmary full of energy.

"Hermione hasn't come back yet?"

Unexpectedly, except for the two boys who came to treat the wound and Madam Pomfrey, Faise didn't see that familiar figure, and she obediently sat on her own hospital bed.

It's been almost two hours, there must be some dispute with Weasley's sister...

Faith worriedly picked up the information book she found for the Potions paper, but she thought about it, the energetic little lion was finally let out, and it would be more reasonable to release the energy that was about to overflow.

Taking advantage of the time when Hermione didn't come back, Faith was going to start the homework with almost zero progress, but without knowing it, she would glance into the eyes of the clock, and her uncontrollable thoughts kept preventing her from concentrating force.

The longer time passed, the uneasiness in Faise's heart and the delusion churning in her mind grew more wantonly. When the bell rang at 13 o'clock, she felt an inexplicable feeling that only her own infirmary was left. chill.

"No, I have to find her."

Although she knew in her heart that it might just be her making a big fuss again, Faise still felt that if she didn't do something, she really wouldn't be able to calm down.

Perhaps she had persuaded Sister Weasley to go and confess to the professor together.

Feise comforted herself in this way in her heart, but her steps became bigger and bigger, her restless heart beat deafeningly at the words she had promised before, and the uneasy premonition dripped from her forehead along with the sweat.

It is very troublesome to find two people in Hogwarts, which is so big and terrible, especially as Hermione mentioned before, she wanted to talk to Ginny alone in a place where no one was around.

But Faise wasn't clueless about finding someone. After she left the infirmary, she ran straight to the Hufflepuff common room.

"bump!"

The door of the dormitory was opened forcefully, and Miriam, who was sitting on the bed leisurely enjoying the hot cocoa, shook her hands in fright. She stuck out her tongue and licked her burnt lower lip, and said with a frown, "Face... Don't be scary, why do you look so anxious?"

Faith didn't have time to say anything more, and she wasn't sure if it was appropriate to share this unreasonable conjecture, so she went straight to her bed, opened the box, propped up the bed with her hands, turned over and jumped in.

"What's wrong with her...I haven't seen her so anxious since she overslept and nearly missed Black Bolt's class last morning."

"I don't know, it's fine this morning." Milian also shook her head, but she suddenly remembered something, with a mysterious smile on the corner of her mouth, "Maybe it has something to do with Hermione?"

"Hermione?" Tarsila tilted her head incomprehensibly, "What's wrong with her, could it be that she hasn't read a book for several days, and she is addicted to reading?"

"I'm just making a random guess," Miriam shrugged, just in time to see the golden head protruding from the box, she raised her eyebrows and asked, "Face, why do you..."

"Ah, it's gone."

From Tarsila's position, she could just see the object held in the other's hand, and she scratched her head inexplicably, "What is she doing with Xixiu?"

The author's words:

This morning, the computer suddenly turned off with a black screen, and I couldn’t turn it on, so I sent a notice to delay the update

I originally wanted to replace the chapter directly, but it turned out that after the replacement, the readers who had seen the notification needed to manually update it to display the chapter content, so I deleted the notification and reposted the chapter...

It's a pity that the five judges' posts (＞﹏＜)

And I often adjust the previous chapters, hoping to bring a better reading experience, and now I am surprised that only new readers can see it... This is really helpless

Chapter 130 Conflict

"grumble……"

Xixiu was carried in Faise's pocket, and hurriedly smuggled out of the common room. It didn't reach the corner of the stairs when there was no one there, and then it angrily pushed away the hand that had been covering its head.

"Hermione is missing, I'm a little worried about her," Faith held Sonny in her hands, and used her back to block the view of passers-by who might pass by, and asked earnestly, "Can you help me find her?"

"Chi! Chi!" Xixiu rolled up from her palm, and waved her little pink hand in the air in dissatisfaction.

"I know you're not a dog...but I have no other choice," Faith sighed helplessly, "I won't let you do nothing for nothing, help me, okay?"

Xixiu was originally with his arms folded and furry all over his body, but he sneaked a glance at Faise, and found that she was really distressed and anxious, and finally jumped to the ground dawdly.

"That's great Sonny, you're the smartest Niffler in the world!"

Faith looked at the little guy on the ground sniffing the air at an extremely fast speed, with joy and anticipation showing on her face, she finally had time to wipe her fogged glasses.

After the high-intensity exercise just now, the bangs in front of her forehead drooped on the side of her face due to the constant sweat. Faith fanned her hands, hoping that this action would cool down her head that was about to overheat.

It is impossible for ordinary magical animals to find the whereabouts of a person in a school with extremely frequent personnel turnover, but for the famous treasure hunter, Sonny only took a few minutes. Grab that ray of fresh breath.

"grumble!"

Fortunately, Hermione hadn't been out of the infirmary in the past few days, and the other party didn't like to use cosmetics. After Sonny determined his goal, he immediately jumped up the intricate moving stairs.

Faise followed the other party closely, shuttled up and down the stairs continuously, and she began to feel that this section of the road seemed very familiar.

Isn't this... the way to the women's bathroom on the third floor?

Sure enough, Xixiu turned in without hesitation at the entrance of the corridor on the third floor, jumped over one window sill after another at an extremely fast speed, and finally stopped in front of the familiar door.

When Faith rushed to the door, she was almost starved of oxygen. At this time, she really wanted to complain, why did she run up and down 7 flights of stairs to the third floor?

Can't Hermione change her habit of going up the stairs as soon as she sees them? Even if she has to wait a while, the stairs will always move to the direction she wants to go!

Listening to the sound of water coming from the bathroom, she managed to understand the panting. Fearing that Hermione was still talking to Ginny, Faith waited at the door for a while.

However, there was no conversation in the bathroom, only the continuous sound of water, not even the cry of Myrtle.

"Hermione?"

Faith hesitated for a moment, but still walked slowly into the familiar bathroom. Sonny looked at the stagnant water all over the floor with disgust, and consciously jumped onto her shoulder.

Cold water overflowed from the pool to the ground, and the drain was working hard, but two faucets seemed to have been damaged by someone, and the rushing water shot out from them, forming a water curtain in the air.

Faith vaguely saw the blurred figure behind the water curtain, and the ominous premonition surged in her heart again, and she walked around from the other side of the sink with a very nervous heart.

"Hermione, why don't you answer my words, don't scare me..."

She could hear her own echo in the bathroom, but the other party not only didn't respond to her call, she didn't even move.

Faith rushed to Hermione's side in a quick step, and helped up the person who was leaning against the pool in a strange posture.

The hoodie she was wearing when she left the infirmary was folded aside, which may be related to her ears and tail that had disappeared, and her widened brown eyes were full of panic and worry.

Faith had seen that look before, on the face of the fourth victim, Justin Finchrey.

At that time, she didn't feel much fear or anxiety. At most, she felt some sympathy for Potter being further suspected. After all, the professors had said that he would be fine.

But when the petrified Hermione appeared in front of her, the shock in her heart made her speechless.

Faith stared fixedly at Hermione's dripping face, and pressed her trembling hands against it, trying to wake her up, but the warm body imprinted deep in her memory was so cold and stiff that she didn't seem alive at the moment.

"Hey?" Xixiu lightly jumped onto Hermione's body, and rubbed her furry body against her side face, but she didn't get a response. Faith lifted her up and leaned against her, touching Hermione's body At that time, she felt as if she had fallen into an ice cave, and she was completely cold from the inside out.

Looking around, she didn't find another person who should be here. Faith noticed the traces that the faucet of the washbasin was crushed by magic, and her brows were locked.

Knowing that she couldn't move Hermione to the infirmary alone with her own strength, but she didn't want to let Hermione stay here alone without self-protection, Faise hesitated and took out her wand, ready to give it to Hermione. Min casts a continuous Levitation spell.

Although with her ability, she can't make the opponent float in the air for a long time, but if she just reduces the weight for a period of time, she can still do it.

With no time to think about other things, Faise could only force herself to focus on how to send Hermione to the infirmary. As long as she saw Madam Pomfrey, she would be fine.

In order to facilitate the casting of the spell, Faith put Sonny back in her pocket. After waving her wand, she carefully put her hand through Hermione's arm and hugged him. Then, suddenly, a piece of paper that had been torn to pieces with only one corner left fell from her hand onto the stagnant water.

"This is……"

Faith didn't miss this scene, she hastily flicked her wand, causing the shreds of paper to float in front of her.

Judging from the color and texture, there is no doubt that this is the paper that Hermione usually uses to take notes, and only this corner will remain, which means that someone took the note from her after she was petrified information paper.

Fortunately, however, there was still a piece of paper left behind. Presumably the person who took the paper didn't think that someone could learn something from the empty pieces.

Faith's eyelashes trembled slightly, her expression was solemn, her pale fingertips moved past Hermione's fingers holding the paper, and activated her ability.

Just as she was concentrating on investigating what happened after she separated from the other party that caused Hermione to be in such danger, in the hallway outside the illusion, two menacing boys were rushing towards the bathroom.

As the ins and outs of the matter were uncovered bit by bit, Faise kept tapping her wand with the hand beside her, the heaving of her chest became more and more obvious, and the anger burned blazingly behind the expressionless expression.

"Hermione Granger! I warn you, if you do anything to Ginny, I will really fight you hard!"

Ron's angry voice came from the door, and Faith, who had just finished her backtracking, pulled a sarcastic smile. She leaned Hermione's body against the corner and held the wand in her hand.

At the moment the red-haired boy rushed in clamorously, he raised his right hand lightly.

"Fuchsia /Levicorpus/"

Chapter 130 Conflict

In the unattended bathroom, the two girls confronted each other in an awkward and tense atmosphere.

Knowing that if she didn't speak, the girl standing there with her head lowered and pretending to be a wooden figure would definitely not confess on her own initiative, so Hermione was not in a hurry, because she had been looking forward to the next conversation for a long time.

Perhaps it was the blessing of Goddess of Luck. Just when she stepped into the Gryffindor lounge, she caught a glimpse of the red-haired girl sneaking out of the boys' dormitory, and then she couldn't help but pull her here.

As an excellent hunter, since the prey she had been chasing for a long time was finally surrounded by her, it was absolutely impossible for her to let him hide.

Even if some words are harsh and will push the person in front of her into a desperate situation, she will not hesitate to tear off the last fig leaf that hides the truth.

She believed that Ginny had reasons beyond her control, and she also understood the other party's desire to escape, but the number of victims in this matter could not be increased, and those who were petrified were so innocent.

"That diary..." Hermione propped her hands on the sink behind her. She noticed that Ginny's arms holding the book were getting stronger and stronger, and her fingers that had nowhere to rest kept pulling at the cuffs. His body seemed to reflect the other party's current mood - shrouded in a layer of haze.

You stole it from Harry's bedroom.

I wanted to not give the other party room to argue, and hit the point first, but the girl in front of me was completely different from the one I saw during the summer vacation. Her eyes drifted and dodged, and her cheerful and shy smile was replaced by timidity and pleading.

Hermione paused for a moment of questioning, thinking of what Faise might say in this situation, she tried her best to sound gentle, "The diary in your hand is dangerous, give it to me first , okay?"

Ginny hesitated for a moment. She didn't have many chances to get along with Ron's friend, but she had heard about his 'reputation' from various people.

Indeed, I very much hope that someone can help share it. Is it a good choice to tell the person in front of me what has happened in the past half semester?
