Chapter 179 178 The Young Wizards in the Great Hall continued their lunch
The Young Wizards in the Great Hall continued their lunch. The Little Snakes even intentionally sped up their eating, picking up their luggage to catch the hogwarts express as soon as they finished.
Merlin's beard, letting two Muggles into Hogwarts—what on earth was Dumbledore thinking?
They were definitely going to tell their families all about this news once they got home.
Lynn, who was lowering her head and eating lunch seriously, was completely unaware of the Slytherins' disdain and early departures.
Mrs. Granger had just said she hoped she would eat a bit more.
After she finished her third steak, Maranhao, who was sitting next to Lynn, finally couldn't help but press down on her right hand as she reached for another one.
"Aren't you full yet? Don't overeat."
Maranhao spoke with a frown while using her other hand to feel Lynn's stomach.
The originally flat little belly was now bulging, clearly a sign of being overstuffed.
"You're already stuffed, aren't you?"
Maranhao sighed helplessly and gave Marietta, on Lynn's other side, a look.
Marietta understood and immediately moved the plate and cutlery away from Lynn.
Watching Marietta take away her plate and cutlery, Lynn said in a flat voice,
"Mrs. Granger told me to eat more, saying I'm too thin."
"That's Mrs. Granger showing she cares about you," Maranhao explained patiently while slowly rubbing Lynn's stomach.
"What Mrs. Granger meant was that you're too thin and should eat a bit more within your capacity."
"But you can't eat until you're stuffed," Marietta chimed in from the side, also reaching out to place her hand on Lynn's stomach, working with Maranhao to gently massage it.
Maranhao looked up at Marietta, and Marietta blinked.
Both lowered their heads at the same time. Fine... they both just wanted to dote on their junior.
Lynn sat quietly in her chair, her mind repeatedly processing Mrs. Granger's words and the explanations Senior Maranhao and Senior Marietta had just given.
So... a single sentence could have so many meanings.
Lynn firmly committed this to memory; she needed to analyze what others said more specifically and in accordance with the context.
With Hermione petrified, Maranhao and Marietta had chosen to stay at school to accompany Lynn without hesitation.
Penelope had also wanted to stay, but she had to go home because of an emergency in her family.
In the afternoon, Hogwarts felt even more empty and vast because more than half of the students were gone.
After lunch, Mr. and Mrs. Granger went to the Hospital Wing to stay with Hermione, while Lynn went to the Library to read.
Even though it had been made clear that this was a completely different world from before, studying was already an instinct carved into her genes.
Seniors Maranhao and Marietta also sat in the Library to accompany Lynn while she read, but they had made an agreement with her for tomorrow, Christmas Day.
Lynn wouldn't be allowed to read or study for the entire day, and she couldn't even review knowledge points in her head.
It was Christmas Day, after all; it should be for relaxing. What would be the point if she was still thinking about studying?
Having read through the entire afternoon and evening, Lynn's state remained the same, concentrating on her studies very seriously.
But Maranhao and Marietta couldn't hold out. Even though they were Ravenclaws and indeed liked studying, they couldn't withstand several hours of continuous, focused study throughout the afternoon and evening.
