Chapter 124

The next morning, when Gail and Severus arrived at St. Mungo's Hospital again, they saw not only James and Remus in the ward, who had recovered their spirits, but also Lily, who had just arrived with a chill...... and Penny with a cold face.

"Good morning, Penny!" For some reason, Gail was a little weak-hearted.

"Good morning." Penny nodded reservedly and turned to the three boys who had been washed up but had not completely detached themselves from their sleepiness because they had been too late last night, "Good morning everyone, I'm Lily's sister Penny, and it's nice to meet you." ”

Before James could speak, his stomach made a sound of hunger, and then Ciris and Remus's stomachs were not to be outdone—St. Mungo's sick meal was not suitable for these growing boys.

"That...... If you don't mind, Penny made something to eat, would you like to taste it? Penny's cooking is very delicious! Probably because her concealment last night was exposed by Penny, which made Lily carefully sneak a glance at Penny's expression as she spoke. It wasn't until he was sure that Penny didn't have any displeasure that he finished the rest of the sentence fluently, and praised the latter's craftsmanship in the hope that she wouldn't be angry with herself.

The three boys had no illusions about the amazing cooking skills of a little girl like Penny, but out of politeness, they readily agreed. It's just that...... Looking at Penny, who was only holding a small handbag, the three of them wondered - where is the food?

They can't be blamed for forgetting things like space magic. You must know that whether there is a little wizard in the family or not, most ordinary families will not gradually integrate magic into their lives like the Evans family. So for a while, the inherent mindset made them have the same impression of Penny as an ordinary person, and the family of other ordinary little wizards, until Penny opened her handbag.

The small pouch is just right for a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl, bright and playful, and looks like it is made of cotton and linen, and it is worn cross-body over Penny's shoulder. It was no different from a normal handbag, but Penny smiled and put both hands into the bag up to her elbows.

She fumbled for about a second or two, and then pulled out a large pot of classic English stew from the handbag that was no more than two palms.

The rich aroma suddenly diffused, which made the three boys, who were already hungry, immediately swallow their sudden strong saliva.

There is a saying about love that goes like this - "To grasp a man's heart, you must first grasp his stomach". It turns out that this statement is indeed true, and it is not only useful for love.

The trio of "Road Raiders" have a very high impression of Penny because of her pot of stew, and they don't have the sense of disobedience of ordinary people using magic objects at the beginning. And Penny naturally gained the sensory recognition of this small group "Penny is her own person".

When James makes a loud burp, Penny retrieves a shallow clay pot that barely needs to be cleaned. She was a little speechless about Cialis's behavior of cleaning up the soup at the bottom of the pot with bread just now, and tried hard not to twitch the corners of her mouth.

After putting away the pot, Penny opened her mouth to a few boys who were sleepy after they had eaten enough: "I feel very angry about what happened to Lily yesterday. ”

Such a sentence suddenly made everyone present a little uneasy. Penny's current appearance is simply the same as a parent's appearance after her child is in danger!

James was a little anxious to wonder, would Penny not let Lily play with them in the future?

"I thought the wizarding world would be unsafe, but I never thought it would be so dangerous." Penny continued, "When I heard the whole story from Lily's mouth, I almost wanted to get Lily out of school. ”

"Penny?" Gail's eyes widened, he didn't expect Penny to think like that. You know, for so many years, Gail has quietly guided Penny on some small things, hoping that she will not be estranged from Lily. Regardless of whether Penny had accepted Lily as a wizard or not, if he did drop Lily out of school, he bet that Lily would hate Penny!

Petunia glanced at Gail, pursed her lips, and continued, somewhat reluctantly, "But I know very well that the mob is so bold that it makes no difference whether Lily is in the wizarding world or in the ordinary world. I know very well that running away won't help. ”

This was not something that an ordinary fifteen-year-old girl could say, but it was clear that Penny had the idea of getting Lily out of school and leaving the wizarding world to keep her sister safe. But in the end, she said this, I wonder what Penny has gone through after Lily confessed to Penny last night?

"'There are eggs under the nest', that's right?" Penny turned to look at Gail, and said a sentence in Chinese in a blunt way that could not be changed in pronunciation.

Gail nodded, "Indeed." As long as Lily was once a student at Hogwarts, she could be in danger as the Death Eaters became more and more rampant, whether she continued to be at school or returned to the world of ordinary people. ”

"And her friend is in danger." Penny added, her gaze sweeping over the faces of everyone present before looking intently at Lily, "I haven't said a word to you since you confessed last night, except for asking to come with you to visit your friends, do you know why?" ”

"Yes." Lily immediately replied reflexively, "Think, and avoid impulsiveness." ”

Penny studied at a prestigious women's college in the UK and began serving as president of the girls' union last year. In her past studies and life, she has begun to learn to think and deal with everything in a way that is different from that of a normal student of her age, and hopes to bring this positive influence to her sister, even though they are not studying together.

And it was because of this that Lily would immediately understand the reason why Penny treated her coldly all night. But because of her anxiety all night, Lily was still a little aggrieved.

"Have you ever wondered what Mom and Dad would do if anything else happened?" Penny said sternly, seemingly blind to Lily's grievances.

Gail watched as Penny reprimanded Lily in front of everyone, the corners of his mouth twitching slightly. He should say that Penny has completely departed from the jealous and vicious image in the original book and has completely begun to develop into an unknown territory.

Looking at her current behavior, it looks like she is pointing at Lily, but she is actually accusing the few boys who were present at the time. Even though one of the boys' parents is still unconscious, Petunia sees nothing as important as her sister's safety, including Lily's insignificant self-esteem and grievances. Penny is so clear and indifferent to the people she cares about, and she distinguishes the distance between relatives and the near very clearly.

"We're just ordinary people!" Penny continued, pointing out a very important point, "Once something happens to you, we don't know anything about what you're going through, and we can't do anything about it! Do you know what is the most torturous thing? We don't even know which hospital to go to find you! ”

Lily's eyes were red at what Penny said.

Penny saw Lily's eyes full of moisture, glanced at a few boys who clenched their fists, and accepted it when she saw it: "You need to thank your friends." If it weren't for their protection, my parents and I would be among the people who are in pain now. ”

Then she turned to James and thanked them very sincerely and gratefully, and then apologized: "I'm sorry I lost control just now. But I beg your pardon, I can't imagine my little sister trying to hide this after just brushing shoulders with death! Concealment is what makes me most angry. Sorry, once again. Thank you very much, once again. ”

"Severus," Gail said, taking Lessifles' hand and standing on tiptoe next to Severus' ear, "is this Liwei?" ”

"More than that." Severus tried to ignore the warm, slightly moist sensation that Gale was breathing into his ear, and replied solemnly, "Or to set up another intelligence network, lest we be there again, and she won't be able to get the news of Lily's safety." ”

Well, such Penny doesn't want a fifteen-year-old girl at all. Oh no, she's almost sixteen! But even a sixteen-year-old girl generally doesn't have such a powerful wrist, right? Not at all!

In the conversation that followed, Penny didn't say anything heavy, but led Lily and the boys to have a pleasant chat. It's just inevitable, and the question about James' parents is still touched.

"I'll take Mr. and Mrs. Potter home and take care of them, James." Penny said with a smile.

Penny, who has successfully conquered several boys with the image of a gentle, intelligent, virtuous, and very loving sister, has been accepted by James. Of course, the boys didn't have a problem with Petunia calling her by her first name.

"Although I have heard that St. Mungo's Hospital is an international hospital, it is very easy to silently harm a person who cannot move. If you have the conditions to take care of your parents in your home, why should you put them in a crowded place? ”

"Yes, I'm here today to persuade you to take Charles and Doria home to take care of them." Gail said to James, "After all, you have house-elves at home who can be trained to take care of the sick. Wouldn't it be safer to take the Soul Stabilizer regularly, and to use a spell to check when you need to check it? ”

"Dude, I think Penny and Gail have a point! And back to the manor, you can hide the manor and no one can find out but you! Siris said as he poked James with his elbow.

Persuaded by his friend and future sister-in-law, James did not continue to leave Charles and Doria in the hospital. This allowed the Potters to avoid a second visit from the Grim Reaper, a devil's net juvenile disguised as a potted plant.

Mr. and Mrs. Potter are a well-known couple in the wizarding world, with many friends. So after I was hospitalized, I received a lot of gifts. Some of these gifts were packed up and placed in the corners of the wards, and some were □□ into vases. And this potted plant, which looks lush, is also placed on the bedside table in the middle of the two-person bed.
