Hufflepuff never works overtime

If she gave up this time, then Faise would really die, and she couldn't have the extra strength and luck to rescue her for the second time.

The desire to survive caused Hermione to paddle her gradually numb legs again and again, and the only dominance and rationality disappeared from her mind.

She opened her eyes and looked at Faith, whose eyes were closed tightly, and then raised her head to look at the shining water.

That distance seemed so close yet so far away, like the distance between them and death.

But due to exhaustion and lack of oxygen, she could only watch that piece of hope gradually go away, and her vision was swallowed by darkness.

I don't want to die... I don't want Faise to die either...

Please, if God really exists in this world... help us!

"boom!"

The two thin bodies slammed heavily onto the land on the shore, the sweet air had never been so precious for a moment, the joy of survival was like a sledgehammer, smashing Hermione into a little unconsciousness.

Now she is like a dilapidated doll, she can only lie on her side on the ground, letting the liquid remaining in her lungs continue to overflow with the piercing coughing sound.

After a while, she raised her head with difficulty, and fixedly stared at Faise, who was drenched and lying beside her, with bloodshot brown eyes.

Hermione didn't feel relieved until she confirmed that the other person's body was still slightly heaving, her eyes went dark, and she completely lost consciousness.

The author's words:

This chapter really took a long time, but the result is still very satisfying to me. Hope to see a lot of compliments when I wake up, okay? (hint hint)

No one would have thought of this development, but Faise was actually saved by Hermione~

I thought of this plot when I watched Harry remove the glass. I originally wanted Faith to save Hermione, but after discussing it with my friends, I think this development is more reasonable and more dramatic.

After all, our Miss Granger is a born wizard, how can she do nothing if she was a child~

Chapter 59

fayce!

Hermione opened her eyes and sat up abruptly, cold sweat slowly slipped down her temples, her chest heaved continuously, and she seemed to be still immersed in the dream just now and couldn't extricate herself.

This dazed state lasted for a long time, and the memories she had just retrieved kept circulating in her mind, especially the scene where she finally found Faise at the bottom of the cold water, but she couldn't get up anyway.

It wasn't until she heard Faise's half-dream raving that Hermione realized that she had escaped from that memory, and they were all safe now, no one was injured or died.

"Hmm... what's wrong with you, Hermione?"

Faise rubbed her sleepy eyes, suddenly lost the oppression of the heavy object on her legs, and for a moment, the tingling feeling made her feel a little uncomfortable.

Shortly after Hermione fell asleep, she too fell asleep against the wall, not knowing where the train was going now.

"Hermione?"

After the other party suddenly sat up, she didn't know what happened, and she didn't answer herself, and kept panting heavily. This abnormal behavior made Faise feel a little worried.

She leaned forward slightly, but saw that the other party's face covered with cold sweat was completely devoid of color, and his eyes, which were always smiling and bright, seemed a little hollow, which frightened her.

"Hermione, what's wrong with you? I'll go to the conductor, wait for me here."

Faith stood up anxiously, and was about to rush out of the carriage when a cold hand grabbed her desperately, and she looked back at the other party with some puzzlement.

"I'm fine..." Her voice was still a little hoarse after waking up, which strengthened Faise's heart that the other party was sick.

"Don't go." Hermione shook her head silently. What she needs most now is not a doctor, but to relieve herself from the overly real sense of despair and anxiety.

"You can't see yourself now, how can you call it okay?"

Faith's expression looked extremely worried. She tried to convince the other party that she only went out for a while and would come back to her as soon as she found the conductor or doctor, but Hermione resolutely refused.

"Don't be willful, Hermione, your situation is obviously abnormal..."

Unable to break free from the opponent's hand, Faise had no choice but to squat down in front of her, and stretched out her hands to cover the opponent's cheeks.

As expected, unlike the usual warm touch, the coolness even made her shiver uncontrollably.

"I'll be back soon, I promise." Taking the opportunity to check the temperature of the other person's forehead, fortunately he didn't have a fever yet, even so, Faise still didn't feel relieved, she still thought it would be safer to ask the doctor to take a look .

"I remembered... what happened that day..."

Realizing that if she couldn't come up with a reasonable reason, Faise would not give up the idea of ​​leaving her, even though Hermione hadn't sorted out her emotions yet, she begged, "Sit down and listen to me first, okay?" ?”

"I remembered?"

Faith's first reaction was that there was something wrong with her spell-breaking, some inexplicable sequelae caused the other party's situation, but she noticed that Hermione's mood was very unstable now, so she decided to go along with the other party first, so as not to irritate her. she.

"Is there something not so good?"

Trying to make her voice calmer, Faith sat next to her and wiped the cold sweat dripping from her forehead with her hand, "That's all in the past, we're on our way home now, it's just a nightmare .”

"Ah."

Hermione nodded silently, she focused her eyes on the seat opposite, and slowly told the other party about the content of her dream just now while recalling.

From the way the two sneaked to the river, to finding each other suddenly fell into the water, to trying all methods to save her, and finally using magic dramatically.

The content of the previous narration was very normal, almost no different from her own memory, but from the moment she fell into the water, Faise found that Hermione's narration suddenly became confused.

Especially when the other party mentioned that she couldn't find her figure in the water, her tone was full of helplessness and despair. Every moment after that, it seemed that the other party was forced into a desperate situation, struggling continuously but could only get beyond. sink deeper and deeper.

When Hermione told the whole story, both of them fell into silence. Faise hesitated to speak several times. The huge amount of information impacted her language system. She wanted to comfort the other party but didn't even know what to say. Say what.

After confiding to Faith, Hermione felt that she had actually recovered a lot, so when she noticed the guilt and distressed eyes in the other party's eyes, she pretended to smile easily.

However, those dim brown eyes coupled with her stiff smile only made Faise feel more distressed.

Hermione knew that it was useless to say anything now, she opened her hands, raised her head slightly, and looked at the other party expectantly, "Don't you want to give your savior a little belated thanks?"

Faise was stunned for a moment, before she had time to savor the sudden soreness in her heart, she subconsciously stood up, stepped in front of Hermione, and hugged her tightly.

Even through the thick coat, Hermione could still feel the other party's warm body temperature, which was transmitted from their tightly fitted bodies to her, and this kind of warmth was gradually dispelling the coldness of the bottom of the water.

Although the height difference between the two was not that big, the fact that she was always shorter than Hermione made Faise rarely have the chance to hug each other.

Today's events made the normally energetic little lion look extra thin. Her hands were tightly gripping the clothes behind her, her body was also tense, and she even trembled uncontrollably occasionally.

She's freaking out...

What happened that night may have been just a miracle to her, but this miracle was actually created by the person in front of her. In such a desperate and urgent situation, Feise could not imagine what kind of feelings the other party was holding. It took a lot of determination and courage to save the two of them ashore.

I don’t know whether I should be thankful that I finally knew the truth, how much place she occupies in that little girl’s heart, or whether I should feel sorry for such a painful experience, because of my own reasons, the other party suffered two injuries .

Faith rested her chin on the opponent's head, and patted Hermione's back lightly with both hands, "You did a great job, our clever Miss Granger saved me again."

"Look, I really can't do it without you..."

"So, don't cry anymore, you're great, we're all fine."

Chapter 60 Home

"My God, you're finally out, I thought you missed the train."

Mrs. Granger, who was looking forward to it, watched wave after wave of children run out of the carriage, and finally saw two familiar figures coming down from the train, and she hurried forward to meet them.

Faith looked at Mrs. Granger who had been waiting for a long time on the cold and windy train platform, and pursed her lips in embarrassment. Hermione behind her.

"I'm sorry Mrs. Granger, I kept you waiting for a long time, there were some accidents on the way..."

"Ah, what's the matter?"

Mrs. Granger immediately noticed the abnormality in her daughter, and she knelt down to see the other's expression.

But Hermione discovered the other party's intentions, and quickly hid behind Faise, tugged on her coat, and signaled her to do something quickly.

Faith found this kind of situation quite interesting—the roles of the two of them were completely reversed from the usual one, which greatly eased the unreasonable shyness and embarrassment she felt when facing Mrs. Granger.

In fact, after venting before getting out of the car, Hermione's mood has stabilized a lot, and her behavior and communication have returned to normal.

However, Miss Granger, who claims to be a brave Gryffindor, realized that something seemed wrong when she saw her red eye circles and nose in the mirror.

Even though she covered most of her face with a scarf, they still chose to wait until most people had left before getting out of the car leisurely, just to prevent familiar people from seeing themselves like this.

All in all, she was shy.

"She didn't sleep well last night, so her eyes were a little swollen..."

After blurting out the impromptu excuse, the people behind were a little dissatisfied with Feise's flawed excuse, and poked her in the waist complainingly.

"Hiss..." Faith moved away that troubled hand, she turned her head to look at the little lion who was winking at her, pretending not to understand what the other party was trying to express, showing an innocent expression, and turned her head away again go back.

Unexpectedly, when she turned around, she just met Mrs. Granger's searching eyes, which seemed to be a smile but not a smile - she knew that these two children must have some little secrets from her. Faith was so shocked that she subconsciously He took a step back and almost bumped into Hermione behind him.

"For the specifics, you can ask Hermione when you go home!"

Under the unbelievable eyes of the people behind her, Faise took a step to the side in a panic. Her whole body was like a big cat whose hair was blown up after its master found out that it had done something bad, and was ready to retreat at any time.

'How could you do that! '

'I can't lie to her, this is your mother. '

'You are too unreliable! '

'Then what can I do...'

The eyes of the two people stared at each other, raised their eyebrows and stared at each other, knowing what the other wanted to say even without opening their mouths, but such a tacit understanding didn't seem to help them reach a consensus on this matter.

Mrs. Granger watched the two little guys' flirtatious eyes with interest for a while, but considering that her husband was still waiting outside, she interrupted the two children's secret communication with a loud voice.

"Hermione? Don't you have anything to say to me?"

The gentle tone made the little lion tremble instantly. She slowly raised her head and looked at her mother, whom she had not seen for many days, with her obviously red and swollen eyes. The distressed look in her eyes made her eye sockets a little hot again.

"I miss you mom..."

"I thought you were staying at school, and you almost forgot your parents." The taller child threw herself into her arms, and Mrs. Granger complained when she heard the other party's hoarse voice. Under the tone of his voice, he couldn't hide his distress.

"How is this possible!"

Not caring that someone she knew next to her might notice her, Hermione rubbed her head in her mother's arms—if she saw such a perfect lady, many people might be shocked, she used a little coquettish Said in a tone, "Mom, let's get out of here first. Where is Dad? Didn't he say that he would pick us up together today?"

"Well... my little Hermione has grown up, and has reached the age where she would feel ashamed to act like a baby with her mother."

Mrs. Granger, who pretended to be sad but was actually teasing, managed to get a big hug from her daughter. She said contentedly, "Your father is waiting outside in the car. Although he would like to come in and take a look at this magic train, who can't?" Letting him go out is too slow, when we arrive, all the places that can be parked on the road around here are full..."

It is every mother's prerogative to complain to her daughter about her father's unreliability, after Mrs. Granger finished speaking, she turned her head to Faith.

"Will little Fays go back with us?"

"No," Faith shook her head hastily, "I asked the rabbi to wait for me at the place where I was brought here before, so I don't need to trouble you."

"You can let that Miss Rabbi get in the car together. There is just room for five people in our car. I heard Hermione said that she is an elf, right? I haven't seen an elf yet!"

Faith looked at the expectant eyes of the two with some embarrassment, and unconsciously played with the corner of the coat, "Thank you for the invitation, but I think I will introduce the rabbi to you formally next time, it, It might not be ready."

For using the rabbi as an excuse to reject other people's well-intentioned behavior, Faise felt a little twisted in her heart, and she didn't even dare to raise her head to meet the other person's eyes.

"Then you'll spend Christmas with me, Faith, and it's your birthday..."

Already expecting that the next question would be this, Faith opened her mouth hesitantly, and finally she stared at the shoes of the mother and daughter and shook her head, "No Hermione, I don't really want to go out this Christmas, you still Live with your parents."

"But……"

Hermione looked at the other party in disappointment. Although she still wanted to persuade her a few more words, judging from Faise's uncontrollable small movements, the other party's heart must also be very entangled.

Maybe she still cares about Aunt Irene...

Hermione silently swallowed the rest of the words, she stepped forward to give the other party a hug, and then took her luggage, "If you change your mind, you can tell me at any time, our family welcomes more Deputy knife and fork."

"Yes, this year I specially bought a super-large turkey. If I can't eat it, Hermione's dad will have that for lunch in the next few days."

"Thank you for your invitation." Faith glanced at the mother and daughter gratefully, and she waved her hands to them, "I wish you all a Merry Christmas in advance, please also send your best wishes to Mr. Granger, then I will leave first gone."
