HP: Hogwarts, but pro-generation

Chapter 154 Leaving the Manor

Xia has been in a trance since she finished reading the book about the Priest family. She doesn't know what's going on, but -

"It's amazing. I think I know why Nott wants my magic power." Xia muttered. The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. She even felt a little aggrieved. Well, she missed her parents a little now.

She sniffed and said in a muffled voice, "Grandma, I miss Mom, Dad, and Ander."

Fiona is not surprised by Sia's reaction. She and Oswin have reflected on their actions since that day and they realize that what they said was terrible. Oswin says that Sia must have guessed it, but she just doesn't know the specifics, and Fiona agrees with this.

"Dear." Fiona's voice was no longer as cheerful as before. After struggling for a long time, she finally asked, "I think you guessed it, right?"

Xia nodded. "Oh, you and grandfather clearly said you would tell me, but you still let me guess it myself." Her somewhat complaining tone did not make Fiona angry. The latter just touched her head and said nothing.

“Is it really so magical and so useful?”

Oswin did not miss the words of his wife and granddaughter. They are still children after all, he thought.

"We don't know. No one has tried it." He said, "But what is certain is that there must be someone crazy enough to want it." The elder looked at Xia and said in a tone that could not be ignored and was even commanding: "I hope you can protect yourself."

"I will, Grandfather." Xia knew what Oswin meant, and she also understood the interests involved. But sometimes, this is not something she can control, right? Xia did not say what she thought in her heart, because she knew that once she said it, the elders would worry about her. However, if someone really needed her, she would not refuse, unless that person was Voldemort.

Oh, maybe he's looking for her too. Xia thought pessimistically, well, let's solve some problems before he comes to her door. She already knew where the crown was, and maybe the "password" to open the door was "a suitable place to hide things" - she suddenly thought of it when she was looking through Anna's collection that day.

Carl helped to pack the luggage for the return trip. He was both sad and happy when he received this job.

"Of course I am willing to work for Miss Xia - Oh, my God, Miss Xia is leaving the manor, Carl will miss her - packing, yes, Carl packed quickly and well - I don't want Miss Xia to leave, but Carl can't let Miss Xia think that Carl is an elf who doesn't work seriously."

Karl kept talking while packing. When he handed the luggage to Xia Ya, he looked at Xia Ya with his big watery eyes, full of hope: "When will Miss Xia Ya come to the manor again? Karl will make a lot of delicious desserts!"

Xia smiled and promised that she would come again as soon as she had a holiday.

When Carl was reluctant to leave and wiped his nose with clothes, Oswin and Fiona took Xia away with the Apparition. When Carl put down the clothes he used to wipe his nose, his favorite Miss Xia had disappeared from his sight.

Well, Carl, cheer up, you still have to make delicious desserts, and you still have the master and mistress, even though they are always away from home and don't give Carl work, they just let Carl - rest! Carl even began to miss his Miss Anna and Master Ander, they both like Carl's desserts, oh, the master just doesn't give the elves work! That's it! Carl looked like he was going to cry again.

Xia, who left, didn’t know that Karl was still sad. As soon as she arrived home, she felt that something seemed to be wrong at home——

"There doesn't seem to be any trace of someone missing from the house." Xia said, staring at the place where the slippers were placed. "They're not James's. I know he wouldn't put them here properly."

"Well, the dishes that haven't been washed at noon seem to indicate that there is an uninvited guest in this house." Xia looked at the kitchen sink, "Is this person going to replace me? We have no way of knowing this, but -"

"What are you doing, Xia?" A lazy, doubtful voice, as if still sleepy, sounded behind Xia.

She screamed and almost dropped the box in her hand. The man quickly caught the box.

"I'm just catching a--" Xia turned her head, the word "uninvited guest" stuck in her throat, unable to come out or down.

"Sirius?!" Xia's eyes widened.

"It's genuine." Sirius was sleepy, even though the sound Xia just made was enough to wake anyone up, "What are you grabbing?" Sirius did not let go of the question.

"Nothing, I just said I'm home, yeah, that's it, I'm back." Xia said incoherently.

Sirius continued, "Welcome home. How's everything going? Would you like something to eat?"

"What? Yes, it went well. I've eaten." Xia said, thinking that their conversation was a little funny. "Oh, every time Dad comes back from outside, Mom asks this."

As soon as the voice fell, the young wizards blushed, and they didn't dare to look each other in the eye. Sirius was still holding Xia's box in his hand. He said unnaturally: "Haha, really? Oh, where should I put the box? The bedroom--"

Xia was surprised to find that her box was still in Sirius's hand. She took the box back and said, "I can do it myself." Then she disappeared into the kitchen.

Xia returned to the house with a hundred questions to ask about Sirius. And now she seemed unable to have a normal chat with Sirius anymore. She meant that she couldn't help but -

Well, was he wearing pajamas? Satin? Oh, and she saw his collarbone showing when he yawned, and it was damn tempting—

Wait, Sylvia! What are you thinking!

Xia slapped her face, trying to get Sirius out of her mind, but her mind was now filled with Sirius's lazy and handsome appearance in pajamas.
