Hearing Wizet's question, Griselda Marchbanks raised an eyebrow, a hint of approving smile appearing at the corners of her mouth.
Although she had only met Wizet a few times, she had already learned much more about him through various reports and from Dumbledore.
She was not at all surprised that Wizet would ask such a question at this moment.

"I think my classmates may have noticed this 'unusual' aspect as well.
