The sickly, iron-fisted beauty in Harry Potter

Dolly got more and more excited as she talked, and Hermione's eyes, who had just been immersed in her apology, gradually became strange.

Finally, she angrily crossed her arms, wanting to see how many more ways Dolly could torment her.

However, Dolly's next words made Hermione burst out laughing again.

"Of course, that was just a joke. I wouldn't really want to mess with our Miss Granger."

"At most, I'll let you twist your nose."

Dolly reached out to pinch Hermione's nose. Normally, Hermione would have dodged immediately, as this would have been too childish for a first-year student.

But this time Hermione sighed softly, as if lamenting why her roommate was so childish.

Then she raised her chin and handed her nose to Dolly, letting Dolly wiggle Hermione's nose from side to side a couple of times.

Then the two of them started laughing again, without a care in the world.

The laughter made Crookshandu look indifferent, as if he were looking at two heartless brats.

Oh, they really are kids, then it's alright.

"Alright, it's getting late. Normally you should get up, wash up, and go to the lobby to study."

Dolly stretched and was about to sit up.

Hermione, however, pressed down on Dolly's shoulder and said in an unquestionable tone, "You're not allowed to go anywhere now. You'll stay with me until dinner."

"Let me take another good look at you, otherwise if you really disappear one day and I can't remember what you look like, wouldn't I be the most unqualified friend?"

Dolly then realized that Hermione was truly terrified this time.

It's not just emotional changes, but also some changes in personality deep down.

Although Dolly was also frightened, she was ultimately much stronger than Hermione in terms of willpower and experience.

She then flashed a perfect smile, and cupped Hermione's face in her hands, allowing Hermione to closely examine every inch of her features.

There was even a faint urge to add a little more charm... Of course, it was just an urge.

The two stared at each other so closely that they seemed to forget the time, until it became noisy outside the door, and they realized that a long time had passed.

Suddenly, Hermione felt that Dolly's face, so close to hers, was familiar yet strangely unfamiliar, with an odd sense of distance between them, even though they were standing so close.

I've definitely watched too much. What if I keep watching it every day and get tired of it?

She laughed, reached out and pushed Dolly's face, saying, "It's time to eat. Get out of my bed and let me have some peace and quiet."

"Hurry up, or I'll kick your thigh."

"Okay, don't kick me, I'll be right down."

Dolly obediently followed orders, knowing that Hermione, who was frightened, needed time to heal her wounds, and so did Dolly.

So for the next period of time, she needs to enjoy her daily life, strengthen her abilities, and also figure out how to deal with Quirrell's plan.

As lunchtime approached, the two finally finished washing up, which was simply unbelievable for Hermione, who always got up early to study.

At this moment, Harry, who had taken his seat early in the hall, looked at the empty seat next to Dolly with unease on his face.

He went to find Dolly after he got up, only to be told by Mrs. Pomfrey that Dolly had already been discharged from the hospital.

So he arrived at the lobby early, waiting for Dolly to appear, but seeing that many people had already started eating and Dolly still hadn't shown up, Harry's heart started to pound again.

Could it be that Dolly encountered some terrifying danger on her way to school, like a dragon this time?

Just then, Malfoy, who had been observing for a long time, came over.

Lucius forbade Malfoy from causing trouble, and Malfoy had indeed been patient for a long time, but this opportunity was rare.

Dolly was visibly disappearing from Hogwarts, and the famous Harry Potter was like a stray dog.

If he doesn't act now, when will he act?

Of course, Malfoy had already decided to rely on the art of words to break Harry's defenses, using the art of language to make Harry, a pure-blood nobleman, use words without resorting to violence.

So he said, “Harry Potter, how is our Miss Dursley? Is she recovering? We are really worried about her health.”

"If she dies, please remember to let me know. I will read a eulogy for her at her funeral."

"For example, Hogwarts lost one of its bravest and toughest Ravenclaws, which is a huge loss for Ravenclaw, Gryffindor and Hufflepuff."

"what do you think?"

Harry jumped up and clenched his fist, ready to punch Malfoy in the face.

Malfoy had anticipated this, and quickly stepped back behind Goyle and Crabbe, continuing, "Harry, I meant well, why did you hit him?"

"It wasn't me who hurt your sister, it was the troll. If you're angry, you should blame yourself for not being able to protect your sister, shouldn't you!"

Harry's eyes reddened, and Ron quickly stepped forward to hug him.

Ron had also wanted to provoke Malfoy, but without Dolly around, he couldn't even think of a few things to say that would hurt Malfoy.

Finally, he could only bite the bullet and say, "Malfoy, you can only say things like that when Dolly isn't around."

"If she comes, would you dare repeat these words in front of her?"

"Heh, what wouldn't I dare to do? I'm concerned about Dolly, I..."

Malfoy was stunned and was about to take the opportunity to ridicule Dolly when he saw a familiar golden figure.

There was also a brown-haired girl next to her; it was definitely her.

Malfoy immediately swallowed her words, completely forgetting her arrogant demeanor, and pretended to be a ghost, hoping that the person couldn't see her.

The person who arrived was none other than Dolly, who had just arrived in the lobby.

Upon seeing Dolly's appearance, the auditorium erupted in chaos.

"Isn't Dolly dead?"

"What? She's dead? But I heard she dropped out of school and went home?"

"Why did I hear that she had been eaten by a troll?"

"Hey bro, I'm eating right now, can we not talk about such scary topics?"

Dolly instantly became the center of attention, with the young wizards buzzing with discussion, as if they could see through her and discover the secret to her survival against the trolls.

Hermione was at a loss; she didn't like being talked about by so many people and worried that Dolly wouldn't be able to handle it.

Just as Hermione was about to say something to silence everyone, Cho Chang stood up and showed his welcome to Dolly with his actions.

She opened her arms generously to Dolly and said, "Dolly, welcome back. We're all waiting for you to come back."

Dolly glanced at Cho Chang with some surprise, then at Hermione, who looked relieved.

Hermione let go of Dolly's hand and even nudged Dolly's waist, whispering, "What are you standing there for? Cho Chang must have a plan."

If it were just Hermione alone, she could do nothing but distract everyone with her anger.

But Cho Chang is different; she represents not only herself, but also the entire Ravenclaw Quidditch team.

Sure enough, after Cho Chang gave Dolly a warm hug, the Ravenclaw Quidditch team led the applause for Dolly, and the female players also came one by one to hug Dolly, as if they were already best friends.

The boys each placed a piece of the best food in front of Dolly on their plate, and finally, Captain Roger presented it to Dolly, loudly proclaiming, "This is a welcome party we've prepared for you!"

He then said in a low voice, "Okay, it's a bit sudden, this is all we can do. How about we give you the gift tonight?"

Dolly gave Roger a friendly smile and said, "I have received the best gift. Thank you."

"No, we should thank you. If you hadn't come back, Qiu Zhang would have been forced to leave the team."

After saying that, Roger gave Dolly a knowing look, and then led everyone in applauding Dolly.

The force of his applause was enough to show that he was sincere and genuine, without the slightest bit of pretense.

Although Roger wasn't a superstar at school, he still energized the entire Ravenclaw community.

On the other side, Harry took the lead and started clapping wildly, followed by Ron and Neville, and the red-haired twins even started singing, celebrating Dolly's return in the style of a birthday song.

The remaining Gryffindors, enjoying the spectacle, began to applaud Dolly.

The kind-hearted folks of Hufflepuff naturally wouldn't kick someone when they're down.

Now all that was left was Malfoy's miserable face; the words he had just spoken seemed to have been slapped across his face.

But what can he do now?

To put it sarcastically, he's already risked being beaten up by Lucius, so he really doesn't dare to cause trouble now.

He could only pretend nothing had happened and sneak away, but then Ron gained a courage buff.

So he said loudly, "Hey, Malfoy, aren't you the one who cares most about Dolly? So where's the healing gift you prepared for Dolly?"

"Could it be that we didn't prepare anything?"

Chapter 89, First Update Goal: Increase Quirrell's strength.

Ron initiated the raid, and the entire Gryffindor was once again in an uproar.

The red-haired twins even changed the lyrics on the spot, singing their lines asking Malfoy for a present in the tone of a Christmas carol.

Some people even started chanting slogans, and the whole audience began to shout Malfoy's name, with everyone staring intently at him.

Malfoy's face first turned red, then black, and finally pale amidst the cheers of the crowd.

He knew he couldn't just leave like that, otherwise he would surely get a beating from his father for making the great Malfoy family lose face.

Lucius can only support the Malfoy family now because of Galleons and his influence, since the Dark Lord has already fallen.

A helpless Malfoy patted his pockets. Although his face was as black as the bottom of a pot, he still walked up to Dolly amidst everyone's cheers and forced a smile that looked more like a grimace.

Then he took out something and placed it in front of Dolly.

Dolly was still considering whether to lighten the mood.

It wasn't that she wanted to excuse Malfoy, but rather that she didn't want to accept anything from him, as that would only complicate their purely hostile relationship.

But when Dolly saw what Malfoy pulled out, she couldn't help but laugh in exasperation.

She picked it up and examined it closely, reading the characters on it, saying, "Dr. Philippa's self-igniting, water-blooming magical fireworks."

Yes, the name of this firework is indeed that long.

Therefore, it also has a short name, which is "laboriously pulling out fireworks".
