Chapter 118 - Chapter 117: Injury on the Leg?

"What did Headmaster Dumbledore want with you just now?" Maranhao, who was walking slightly ahead, turned her head and whispered as she saw Marietta return.

"He said that once Lynn wakes up, she should go to the Headmaster's Office, and we can all go with her."

"Me, you, Hermione, and Senior Penelopa."

"Alright." Maranhao nodded, indicating she understood.

Carrying Lynn while following the group of Eagles, Hermione looked down at the girl sleeping soundly in her arms.

Her face was still expressionless, but it gave off a sense of tranquility and peace.

Moreover, in Hermione's arms, Lynn's arms hung down naturally, her defenseless posture making it clear that she felt safe.

Not a single Little Eagle whispered along the way, and everyone even lowered their voices when answering the bronze knocker's question upon returning to the Ravenclaw Common Room.

All to avoid waking Lynn. After entering the Ravenclaw Common Room, Hermione, still carrying Lynn, was led into their Dormitory by Maranhao and Marietta.

Hermione, who had been here before, accurately placed Lynn onto her bed and reached out to carefully tidy her hair.

"Should we change her clothes?" Maranhao stepped forward and whispered to Hermione.

"Sleeping in a wizard robe like this, she might catch a cold, right?"

Hermione looked at Lynn lying on the bed and pursed her lips. "Yes, indeed. Let's change her into something else."

Having decided, they got to work; since everyone present was a girl, there was nothing to worry about.

Carefully propping Lynn up, the three of them worked together to slowly remove her wizard robe.

Fortunately, it was already Halloween and the weather had turned cold, so Lynn was wearing a shirt and long johns under her wizard robe and Hogwarts uniform.

After helping Lynn out of her wizard robe and Hogwarts uniform, the three girls breathed a sigh of relief seeing her fully covered in her shirt and long johns.

Although they were all girls, they would have felt a bit shy if Lynn hadn't been wearing anything underneath.

Thus, none of the three mentioned changing Lynn into pajamas; sleeping in a shirt and long johns for one day... should be fine.

After folding the clothes and setting them aside, Maranhao pulled back the covers, and Marietta and Hermione lifted Lynn into the bed.

After tucking Lynn in, Maranhao gave a relieved smile; they had finally managed to get her settled into bed without waking her up.

Marietta turned to Hermione and whispered, "Hermione, why don't you rest here today?"

"It's getting late, and Madam Norris was just petrified. According to Lynn, there's likely a Basilisk in the school, so it's not safe."

Hermione looked at Lynn on the bed with some hesitation; if she stayed, she hadn't brought anything and couldn't sleep on the floor.

She couldn't very well squeeze into a bed with either of the two seniors.

So, the only option was... to squeeze in with Lynn?

Strangely enough, the thought of sharing a bed with either Maranhao or Marietta felt inappropriate to Hermione.

But thinking about sharing a bed with Lynn, besides shyness, she actually felt a bit of anticipation.

Following Hermione's gaze to the soundly sleeping Lynn, Maranhao and Marietta understood perfectly.

Marietta smilingly pushed Hermione to sit at the edge of Lynn's bed, while Maranhao reached out to grab the bed curtains on both sides.

"Sleep here with peace of mind. Given the situation, if Lynn were awake, she definitely wouldn't feel right letting you go back to Gryffindor now. She won't mind you sleeping here."

"Goodnight, Hermione."

Having said that, Marietta didn't give Hermione time to react and immediately stepped back out of the bed curtains' range.

Maranhao cheerfully pulled the curtains shut, adding, "Goodnight, Hermione, sweet dreams."

Watching the curtains close in front of her, Hermione opened her mouth and then closed it again.

Looking back at Lynn lying on her side, the corners of Hermione's mouth couldn't help but curl up.

If she slept here... it seemed she really could have sweet dreams.
