Chapter 311 The Enemy's Enemy is His Friend
Remus Lupin —
Although Nagini had only met him a few times—she knew very well that he had once saved her—if he hadn't found her, she might still be in the Albanian jungle.
In addition, Nagini also knew what Lupin meant to Roy—he was one of Roy's few friends.
But now he is in danger—what should he do?
Nagini was about to tell Dumbledore about it almost immediately—but Dumbledore wasn't at Hogwarts today.
Why is he never at Hogwarts when something happens? He seems to have gone to the Ministry of Magic today, and he brought several professors with him—I don't know why.
Looking at the constantly shimmering necklace, Nagini hoped that Loila would wake up at this moment—but the girl only frowned slightly, her eyes still tightly closed.
No—I can't waste any more time; every second wasted is a second wasted!
With that thought, Nagini immediately transformed into a snake and burrowed into the pipes of the school hospital.
She needed to find someone to help her, and luckily there was someone at Hogwarts who could do just that.
Shiloh Rozier was pacing back and forth in her office, her violet eyes darting around as she considered her next move.
Without a doubt—she was certain that Peterson had done those things; he wanted to kill Miss Hamilton and frame her, but he hadn't expected that Miss Hamilton hadn't died, and that a student had witnessed her protecting Miss Hamilton.
What a flawed plan—didn't he even consider whether he was being suspected by others?
But now is not the time to think about that—Hilal knows that Dumbledore isn't at Hogwarts today, not only him, but Professor McGonagall isn't there either—so it's simple.
Why don't I just arrest Peterson and force him to confess to his crimes? Hilo has some experience with interrogation within the UMNO party.
She still had some confidence in her abilities—thinking of this, she slightly curled the corners of her mouth, then gripped her wand.
Since they've chosen to target us, the members of the UMNO party, then they should be prepared to face the consequences.
"Clatter".
Suddenly, she heard a noise, and she instinctively turned her head and pointed her wand at the source of the sound.
What came into view was a snake—a black snake that did not reflect any light.
Is it Miss Nagini?
Shouldn't she be with Miss Hamilton? Why is she here?
Under Hilo's astonished gaze, Nagini slowly transformed into human form and then recounted what had happened.
"Tsk—" Upon hearing her words, Shiloh immediately frowned.
She really wanted to ask the person in front of her, "Are you sure you're not out of your mind? Are you really asking someone you've only known for less than a week to save someone she's never even heard of?"
I am a saint of the Basilisks, a killer of the Basilisks—if only this Lupin were a Basilisk—
He was even a member of Dumbledore's Order of the Phoenix.
In other words, he was not only not a friend to Shiloh—he was even an enemy.
You want me to save my enemy?
That's quite interesting—but out of courtesy, Hilo couldn't refuse, so she just raised an eyebrow and quietly watched Nagini finish speaking.
Seeing that she had stopped, Shiloh slowly said, "Perhaps you should inform the Order of the Phoenix."
“Not me,” she said slowly. “I don’t even know this Mr. Lupin.”
Her words carried a hint of rejection, and her tone was exceptionally cold.
"I'm sorry, Miss Nagini, while I'm not exactly a bad person, I'm certainly not a good one either—and I have some grudges to settle with one of our professors today." She shrugged, "So I don't have time to meddle in other people's business right now."
"Wait a minute!" Nagini interrupted her, pursing her lips as she looked at the cold, aloof professor. After a few seconds of thought, she said, "Mind your own business?"
"If you really didn't want to meddle, then why did you save Royla in the first place?"
".——"
Her words left Shiloh speechless for a moment.
Why did I save Loila? It's simple—because she's a member of the Vigilante Party and is working for Lord Grindelwald's mission—but can I really say that?
"She's different." After a few seconds of silence, Shiloh could only say this.
"Different?" Nagini pursed her lips and said, "Is it because she's your friend?"
'
Is this the reason?
Hilo instinctively wanted to deny it, but Nagini continued, "And I'm curious why anyone would be willing to act like that in front of outsiders—even though you're not a bad person."
"You—" Shiloh frowned slightly. How did she know about her affair with Miss Hamilton—about her acting—?
Ah—she's a snake—an Animagus?
But when he was talking to Miss Hamilton, he never felt anything secretly watching him.
m.
Shiloh suddenly felt a sense of unease—she looked at the earnest woman before her and remained silent for a long time before slowly saying, "Miss Hamilton and I—we are indeed—we are friends."
Actually, no — definitely not — after all, no friends are like that, right?
I helped her only so she could properly complete Lord Grindelwald's mission. Now she wants to kill Peterson because he wants to kill a member of the Sorcerer Party, and definitely not for any other reason—any other reason whatsoever.
But for some reason, after saying that they were friends, the image of that silver-haired figure suddenly flashed before Shiloh's eyes—
Tsk—damn Veela enchantment—she gritted her teeth and didn't speak, instead turning her face slightly away from Nagini.
Seeing her expression, Nagini pursed her lips and said in a pleading tone, "Since you are Loila's friend—then—then may I ask for your help?"
"Remus Lupin was also her friend; he rescued Loira and brought her back to Hogwarts—and he took care of Loira until she could adapt to the present day—"
"He is really—really important to her—"
"...
'
Hilo watched Nagini, who was talking and even had tears in her eyes, and remained silent for a long time—finally, she pursed her lips.
"Miss Nagini—I helped you not because—not because I am friends with—Miss Hamilton."
"Just because I decided to help you—just because of that."
That's right. Since Lupin is so important to Loira—if he were to die, she would definitely break down—
Lord Grindelwald's mission and such will definitely be...
That's why I helped her—it was all for Lord Grindelwald's mission.
Hilo took a deep breath to calm himself, then looked at Nagini, who was smiling, and said, "So, how do we find out where Lupin is?"
