Chapter 255 What is Loila Hamilton thinking?
So, what exactly is Loyla Hamilton thinking?
Actually, what she was thinking was very simple—from the very beginning, she didn't want Miss Shiloh to become an investigator or a suspect—but Peterson seemed genuinely eager to seek justice for himself.
Moreover, his debate with Miss Shiloh was so intense—Roy really felt like he couldn't get a word in edgewise, just like that night—but with Dumbledore around, he couldn't just use a spell to stop them both.
So Loila could only stand beside Peterson and watch their heated discussion—it has to be said, Miss Shiloh is really something, Loila almost felt like she wasn't the one who wanted to kill her.
Although it should be her—to be honest, even Roy felt that it was definitely Shiloh who wanted to harm him—after all, he was a traitor in her eyes.
But what she said seemed to make a lot of sense—until Dumbledore mentioned using the Memory Ring.
Loila never imagined she would be betrayed by her own magic circle artifact again! Memory Ring, have you become Dumbledore's lackey too?
If the memory headband is really used, without a doubt—not only will the fact that Miss Shiloh wanted to kill her be exposed, but Lord Grindelwald's secret will also likely be exposed!
And what if they still have parts of their memories about themselves—Loila pursed her lips, not daring to imagine what such a thing would mean.
So—Loila quickly stepped forward and hastily offered that somewhat weak explanation.
I'm so sorry, Miss Shiloh, for presumptuously calling you my friend. Roy pursed his lips as he looked at Shiloh's somewhat complicated expression, then lowered his head with a hint of worry.
Fortunately, Dumbledore seemed to believe her explanation, which relieved Royla—Dumbledore, you can be quite humane sometimes, can't you?
"In that case, I'll contact the Aurors at the Ministry of Magic," Dumbledore said slowly. "After all, regardless of the circumstances, François Rosier and two others attempted to murder a Hogwarts professor—"
"Sending them to Azkaban is a must." He paused, glancing at Loila.
Those calm eyes silenced Loila, rendering her unable to plead for the three men—after all, they were members of the Wushi Party—and the whole thing between her and them was just a misunderstanding.
"I support Headmaster Dumbledore's decision," Shiloh said slowly, her voice icy. "The Rozier family doesn't want such parasites either."
"Ugh!" Loila's body trembled slightly. She must be a parasite in the eyes of the Rozier family, right?
No, no, no, I saved Miss Shiro this time!
How should I put it—it should be better than termites, right?
As she was thinking this, she raised her head slightly, but after being looked at by Shiloh's cold, purple eyes, she immediately lowered her head again.
It's still...it's still so scary...
Seeing that the three seemed to have no objections, Dumbledore nodded slightly and said, "It seems the matter is settled—so, if there's nothing else, please return, everyone—"
Dumbledore's words relieved Roy, and she turned to leave almost immediately, but Dumbledore's voice came from behind her.
"Not you, Miss Hamilton."
"Hmm."
Not only Loila, but the other two also stopped in their tracks.
"Don't worry, professors, Miss Hamilton and I were just having a casual chat," Dumbledore said with a shrug and a smile. "We're old friends."
Who says you're a friend, let alone an old friend? Don't try to make yourself look good!
Despite thinking this, Royla obediently sat opposite Dumbledore.
As the headmaster's office door closed, Dumbledore raised an eyebrow and waved his wand, bringing Royla a cup of tea.
"Th-thank you—" After saying so much, Loila's throat was indeed a little sore. She took a sip of tea and thanked her softly.
"You're welcome, Miss Hamilton," Dumbledore said with a smile. "Regarding today's events—"
—What do you think?
How do you see it?
Loila, with tea in her mouth, didn't know what Dumbledore meant—"Of course I'm just sitting here watching!"
"What I mean is—do you think Miss Rozier would be a member of the Basilisk Party?"
"puff!"
The tea in Loila's mouth sprayed out the next second, but Dumbledore, as if he had anticipated it, raised his wand in advance to shield himself, preventing the tea from splashing onto him.
"Are you so surprised, Miss Hamilton?"
"Um—I—I—" Loila felt extremely embarrassed about her rudeness just now, while frantically thinking of how to smooth things over.
"I don't think so, Miss Luo---Miss Shiloh is---a witch---" she stammered, making several typos in a row.
"Why?" Dumbledore raised an eyebrow. "Because she's your friend?"
"Mmm—Mmm!" Loila nodded, blushing. She'd already—had already shamelessly said it once, so she might as well say it again.
"I see—" Dumbledore nodded gently. "Sometimes friends are indeed far more trustworthy than family."
He seemed to have thought of something and gave a faint smile: "Since you trust Professor Rozier so much—let's end this matter today."
He winked as he spoke, "After all, I trust you just as much, my friend."
"Who said I'm your friend? I didn't expect you to be even more shameless than me!" Loila muttered to herself, but she didn't show it on her face.
However—it's really good that this matter is truly over, since no one was hurt as a result—
Ah—Loila thought of those three members of the Malay Party again.
"Dumbledore—that one—"
"Shall we play a game of chess?" Dumbledore suddenly interrupted Loira. He waved his wand to summon a wizard's chess set, and then, while setting up the pieces, said, "I've been practicing quite a bit lately."
"So that I can always beat you."
"————"
His words immediately made Loila's expression serious. Dumbledore, you actually want to keep beating me?
That seems a bit naive!
I haven't been idle lately either; I've been practicing diligently! Although it's with Luna—I must say, Luna's talent in Wizard Chess is somewhat similar to Royla's.
But no matter what, I'm sure I can beat Dumbledore after this special training!
It seems that whether François Rozier and his two companions enter Azkaban is not much more important to Loila than the outcome of the Wizard's Chess game.
