Nami's Discovery
Leaving the Room of Requirement, Levi bid farewell to Headmaster Dumbledore.
"Goodbye, Mr. Keynes!"
Headmaster Dumbledore was always so childlike; before leaving, he even joked with Levi, saying:
"This old man wants to be the headmaster for a few more years, so please don't be in such a hurry to get Hogwarts Castle, okay?"
"Principal~"
Levi was genuinely shy this time!
He suspected that the Room of Requirement might have been sprayed with a mist containing Veritaserum. What had he said?
Haha~
Dumbledore laughed heartily and gave Levi another point:
"Mr. Keynes, for your honesty in the Room of Requirement, Ravenclaw gets ten points!"
"Also, you need to hurry back to the Great Hall. Your good friend Miss Hermione Granger is looking for you everywhere!"
When Levi heard that he had received bonus points from the principal again, a smile spread across his face. He had contributed to the House Cup once more!
But when he heard the headmaster say that Hermione was looking for him, Levi was taken aback again.
Even if looking in the mirror with Headmaster Dumbledore took a little time, and he didn't go to the library with Hermione, it shouldn't have made Hermione so anxious, right?
"Goodbye, Principal," Levi said hurriedly, a little worried, before rushing downstairs and running towards the Great Hall.
Dumbledore watched Levi hurry downstairs, his smile fading, and he said with a look of nostalgia:
"Youth, friendship, the yearning for a better future..."
"Sometimes, unnecessary suspicion is a shameful emotion!"
Levi rushed into the Great Hall and saw Hermione holding Nami the Purrloin, asking his two roommates about his whereabouts.
"Miss Granger, you don't need to worry. I even saw Levi at breakfast this morning!"
Anthony Goldstein calmed Hermione down.
He casually turned his head and saw, along with Michael Corner, Levi running into the Great Hall.
The two men chuckled inwardly, and Michael, without batting an eye, asked:
"Speaking of which, Miss Granger, what exactly is your relationship with Levi? Why are you so concerned about him?"
Hermione panicked immediately upon hearing this!
The situation here is extremely urgent, and you're still wondering what my relationship with Levi is?
"We're good friends, we often go to the library together, didn't you know? And you two are Levi's roommates!"
Hermione stammered, because with her back to the main entrance of the Great Hall, she couldn't see Levi had already run into the Great Hall.
"Oh, so you're a 'good' friend!"
Although they didn't get the answer they wanted, the two guys deliberately drew out the word "good," instantly making the whole sentence more meaningful.
Hermione was furious. What kind of people were Levi's roommates?! How could they be so unreliable?!
"Miss Granger, don't rush, please turn around now, a surprise awaits you!"
Anthony laughed and gestured for Hermione to turn around and look.
What kind of time is this to be pulling these kinds of tricks!
Hermione glared fiercely at Anthony, hesitated for a moment, then turned around with Nami in her arms to look at him:
Levi ran over anxiously and asked her with concern:
"What's wrong? Hermione, why are you in such a hurry to see me?"
Before she could answer, Levi began to explain on his own:
"I was late because I was talking to Headmaster Dumbledore on the way, which delayed me. I didn't mean to be late!"
"Why are you in such a hurry to find me? Did something happen?"
Hermione felt a surge of warmth upon seeing Levi's concerned and anxious expression, and she quickly explained:
"It's not that I'm in a hurry to find you, it's that Nami is. I've never seen her like this before. Please check if something has happened to Nami."
With that, Hermione carried the Purrloin Nami in her arms and handed her to Levi.
After a month of getting along, Hermione, a seasoned cat lover, has become quite familiar with her little master Nami, and kissing, hugging, and lifting her up high are no longer a problem.
Levi didn't reach out to take it, but instead carefully looked Nami over and asked with concern, "What's wrong, Nami?"
"Swish~ Swish~"
Nami the Purrloin meowed twice, sighing inwardly: It's so inconvenient not being able to speak human language, but thankfully Levi can understand her!
"You mean you discovered something unusual and came to report it to me?"
Levi's Magical Creature Affinity allows him to understand Nami's words.
But what special circumstances could necessitate reporting to him?
Levi pondered to himself, "Although Nami the Purrloin likes to play pranks, she's not a mischievous little kitten."
The sight of a person and a cat communicating drew gasps of amazement from those around them.
However, this is ultimately Wizarding World, and as long as Levi doesn't talk to the snake, it can still be considered a somewhat normal thing.
"Levi, are you alright?"
Anthony asked Levi with concern, and Michael also looked over.
They may joke around and have fun, but they never joke about serious matters; they are both very reliable!
"It's nothing," Levi shook his head, choosing not to escalate the situation or make a big fuss.
He took Nami out of Hermione's arms, put the Purrloin on the ground, and said, "Nami, lead the way!"
He glanced at Hermione, who looked concerned, and knowing that the girl would sneak over if he didn't take her, he said to Hermione, "Hermione, come along too!"
"I'm just worried that you'll get into some trouble again!"
A hint of concern flashed in Hermione's eyes, but she remained stubbornly defiant.
Swish
As soon as Nami landed, she heard Levi's words and called out to Levi, signaling Levi to follow her. She then ran ahead and began to lead the way.
Levi and Hermione exchanged a glance and followed.
"Should we two come along and take a look?"
Anthony said with concern that he was worried about a repeat of what happened before, when Levi reprimanded Malfoy.
"You wouldn't understand, Anthony. If the two of us really follow along, you can forget about using Levi's homework as a reference next week!"
Michael gave Anthony a mischievous grin and nudged Anthony lightly with his elbow, a playful smile on his small, dark face.
Anthony looked completely bewildered; at such a young age, he had no idea what Michael meant.
Levi and Hermione followed behind Nami, jogging all the way out of Hogwarts Castle, across the green meadows, and through the path between the Greenhouse and vegetable gardens, until they could see the tall, lush green Whomping Willow in the distance.
"Levi, should we get any closer? The Whomping Willow ' is right ahead!"
Hermione followed behind Levi and asked worriedly.
Although the Whomping Willow hasn't yet shown its power in Harry Potter and Ron's stories, every student who has taken Herbology has received a warning from Professor Sprout:
If you don't want to get punched into a Quaffle Whomping Willow, stay away from there!
Upon hearing this, Levi immediately looked at Nami, who Nami gave Levi a sharp "snap!"
"It's alright. Nami said there's no need to get close to the Whomping Willow. Her new friend is just using the Whomping Willow and Hogwarts as a cover to avoid enemies and escape danger!"
Nodding to Nami, Levi explained to Hermione.
"Really?"
Hermione looked on with a skeptical expression; she really found it hard to believe that Nami had conveyed so much information with just one meow.
"Of course it's true!"
Levi said confidently, with an expression that said, "I'm well-read and I wouldn't lie to you."
In reality, he doesn't understand the language of Pokémon, but his Magical Creature Affinity allows him to communicate with small animals heart to heart.
He could easily discern the emotions and information contained in their Growl.
"Okay, Levi, I believe you! And I believe in Nami even more!"
Hermione had no doubt; Gryffindor were never short of adventurous courage. But to prevent being tricked, the little lioness Hermione sternly warned:
"But if I find out that you and Nami conspired to trick me, and that you dared to take such a risky step, you're dead! Levi!"
What could Levi do after hearing this?
He was also desperate, and he could only believe that Nami the Purrloin wasn't playing any more pranks!
