Chapter 234 A Happy Weekend (Part 2)
No friend would do that, right?!
Do friends kiss each other on the forehead?
It seems so — I've heard that's common in France!
The French are so indecent! But Luna—ah, Luna is such a well-behaved person—
Does that mean Miss Shiloh is really that indecent? Does she kiss other people's foreheads—like me—no, no, no—like Aunt Vida or something—
Loila's mind went into overload for a moment, a state that had only occurred when she was learning magic arrays, but was reactivated by Luna's friend's thank-you gift.
Looking at the confused Loila, Luna blinked, looking completely innocent.
"Huh, Luna?"
A passing student seemed to have spotted Luna and scratched his head in surprise: "What are you doing here?"
"Ah—good morning, Hermione." Luna nodded gently upon seeing the visitor. "I'm on my way to Hogsmeade with Lora."
"I know—but—" Hermione thought for a moment and said, "Aren't you—not allowed to leave Hogwarts?"
Only students in their third year or above are allowed to leave Hogwarts—and this absolutely does not include Miss Luna Lovegood.
"So, what grade is Luo in—it seems like a fourth-year student—" Hermione shook her head and said, "That's against school rules."
"I didn't break any school rules," Luna said, waving her hand gently.
"Do you have the professor's permission?" Hermione raised an eyebrow, then realized who it was: "Professor Hamilton?"
"Ah—what's wrong—"
Loila, jolted back to her senses by being suddenly called out, then saw Hermione standing with Luna.
"Good morning, Lola," Hermione greeted casually after seeing that she seemed to have come back to her senses.
"Ah—good morning—good morning, Hermione." Loila nodded nervously, then lowered her head slightly.
She hadn't expected to run into Miss Granger here. Although she had disguised herself, Miss Granger was a very perceptive person—if she were recognized by her, Loira might die of shame.
"Since Professor Hamilton agreed—are you going to buy materials for the magic array for him?"
"Ah—I—" Loila really wanted to say that she came out this time to show her adult demeanor, but Luna had already nodded.
"Yes, we're going to buy materials for Professor Hamilton's magic array."
Her explanation made Hermione nod: "Then why don't we do it together?"
"I also need to go to Hogsmeade to buy some materials for magic arrays."
No—no!
I'm here to take Luna to buy things that girls should buy, not things that Professor Hamilton should buy!
Wait a minute—Miss Granger is a girl too, right? So girls always buy magic circle materials?
The three walked side by side for a few steps, and the atmosphere became a little silent.
This made Hermione feel a little embarrassed—was it because of her?
After all, Lola seemed quite shy, and she wondered if she was making her a little nervous. — Watching the girl almost trip over a stone on the road, she couldn't help but worry about whether Lola could live on her own.
Just as Hermione was pondering this, Luna seemed to have finished humming a song, and then asked, "Why isn't Hermione with Ronald and Harry?"
"Ah—" Hermione pursed her lips awkwardly when asked this question: "I—Harry—Harry can't go to Hogsmeade."
His family did not agree.
"I see—" Luna nodded thoughtfully. "So it's because the timing was wrong?"
"Time—time!" Hermione froze on the spot as if she had been stepped on, and stammered, "It has nothing to do with time—of course."
"I haven't said anything about it being related to time yet," Luna said, tilting her head slightly, a little puzzled. "Does Hermione know I'm talking about Ronald?"
"Ah—it's—it's Ron." Hermione muttered as if she had breathed a sigh of relief, then immediately added as if she had realized something, "It's Ron—he's late."
"So I decided to go alone."
"Will Ronald be late?" Luna smiled, puzzled. "It seems things aren't quite what I expected."
I have to say, Loila and I felt a little strange—what were they talking about?—were they talking about something profound?
Why do they seem more like adults than me?
Seemingly feeling a bit awkward from Luna's question, Hermione changed the subject, saying, "Well—since you're going to buy materials for Professor Hamilton's magic array..."
"Have you ever drawn up a magic-blocking array?"
"Hmm."
Should I answer that I drew it or not? Loila looked at Luna for help.
"Of course," Luna nodded gently. "Lola and I have both tried it."
"However, I wasn't very successful."
"You weren't very successful—" Hermione paused, then looked at Loila: "But Lola succeeded, right?"
"Ah—I—" Caught off guard by the sudden question, Loila stammered, unsure how to answer. If she answered correctly, would she be questioned? If she was asked for advice, she'd definitely blurt out a whole bunch of things—and that would give her away!
But if we say it didn't work out, wouldn't that make Luna lie?
As Loira hesitated, Hermione seemed to suddenly see something. She coughed sharply and said, "Um—um, sorry—"
"I think I've remembered something." She waved her hand hastily, "I have to go first."
"You guys go buy the materials first, don't wait for me!" With that, she quickly left.
Seeing her leave in such a hurry, Luna and Loila exchanged a glance.
What does this mean? She appeared like the wind, and she left like the wind.
However, this is a good thing, at least Loira doesn't have to think about how to answer Hermione.
And we don't need to buy magic array materials anymore.
Watching Hermione leave, Luna shook her head: "So what are we going to do?"
"Loila said she'd treat me to something—but I don't really want to buy anything." She paused for a few seconds, then asked, "Is there anything Loila wants to buy?"
"I want to buy magic array materials"—Loila covered her mouth to stop herself from saying this.
Seemingly understanding Loira's meaning, Luna smiled gently: "Then—let's just buy whatever looks interesting."
"Hmm————" Loila nodded gently and followed Luna as they circled around Hogsmeade.
I must say, Hogsmeade was packed with people on the weekend!
Loila glanced around and spotted Ron and Hermione, who seemed to be walking and talking.
So Miss Granger saw Mr. Weasley and that's why she left in such a hurry—wait—Loyla seemed to realize something and smiled.
So that's what kind of relationship they had—I hadn't even realized it myself.
May Professor Hamilton bless your friendship! May you always be friends!
Besides seeing her two good friends, Loila also saw many familiar faces, such as Peterson who hurriedly walked into the Three Brooms, and Miss Shiloh who walked past the street corner with a cold face.
This is what mature adults are like—they all have their own things to do—unlike me—
No, no!
Loila patted her face.
Shopping in Hogsmeade with your friends is a perfectly adult activity!
In the end, Luna didn't buy anything.
