"Bang bang bang! Bang bang bang!"
There was a knock on the door, and the next moment Safina noticed someone coming outside. And... Judging from the sound of the other party knocking on the door, I am afraid that he just heard something very concerning in the conversation between the two.
"Stop knocking, just come in if you want! The doors in this church are not locked."
Safina, who was a little closer to the door, obviously didn't want to get out of bed. When she saw the other party knocking outside, she immediately raised her voice and shouted.
And then, the door was pushed open.
"Granger?" Although Safina felt someone outside just now, she obviously didn't have the ability to know who the other person was through the door. "You... why did you come to our room? Do you plan to be like that one?" Like weird Lovegood, occupying Ursula's bed and staying here all day and night?"
"Safina, don't be so rude." Seeing this, Ursula on the other bed couldn't help but said, "Besides, I took the initiative to give up my bed to--"
"Ursula, don't talk, just leave it to me." Safina shook her head, blocking out her sister's next words.
But at this moment, Hermione, who opened the door and came in, finally spoke.
"I just want to ask you a question right now," she looked at Safina and said, "You just said that Maka will not come back? What does that mean?"
"Did you really hear that?" Safina suddenly said dissatisfiedly after hearing this, "Miss, it's not a good habit to eavesdrop on other people's conversations!"
However, Hermione just pursed her lips and said:
"I'm sorry, I can apologize for that - but before that, I'd like you to answer my question because it's important to me."
Seeing Hermione's slightly anxious look, Safina couldn't help but frown, but she finally leaned on the pillow, waved her hand casually and said:
"Oh, why did you come to Winchester! It turns out that you came here specifically to see McClane... Well... Unfortunately, as you heard before, McClane will probably not come back here. —At least I’m afraid I won’t be able to come back in a short time.”
"Because I heard him mention it before he left with the Blois father and daughter, saying that they might have a lot of things to do during their trip. If there were any changes here, he might not be able to catch up in time. Come back. So in order to ensure our safety, he suggested that Sarah and I regularly patrol the living corpses in the surrounding and slightly distant areas. If there is any trouble that is difficult to deal with, we can evacuate at any time."
Having said this, she paused for a moment, then spread her hands and said:
"Look! He said so. If it were you... shouldn't you think that he probably won't come back now?"
Since Maka has indeed left Winchester for a long time, and now with these words, it is no wonder that Safina has such speculation.
It's a pity that Safina came back late, and she was not very willing to talk to Hermione more. If Hermione could have gotten the news earlier, maybe there would be no need to waste so much time here.
But... As a result, the possibility of her finding Maka seems to be much lower.
"It would be great if you were just lying to me and trying to make me more anxious and disappointed." Hermione looked at Safina and sighed slightly.
"Oh, if I had known earlier that you were here specifically to find McClane, maybe I would have."
Safina said this, but looking at Hermione's increasingly disappointed look, she still got out of bed helplessly, walked up to Hermione, patted her arm and said:
"Okay, don't look so depressed. This is nothing like the you I usually hate... Although this obviously has nothing to do with me, but... let it be my fault, okay? If it happens again in the future, If you can meet that McClain, I will find a way to take you to see him."
Otherwise, these two sisters from the Geofein family are not bad people! Although Safina today seems to have undergone some subtle changes in her personality under the influence of the power Maka gave her, she is still a kind girl after all.
At this moment, even Ursula who was not far away couldn't help but smile, as if she saw something that made her feel very satisfied.
However, Safina's rare show of kindness obviously couldn't make Hermione feel better again. She nodded slightly and said softly:
"Miss Geofine, thank you...then I won't disturb you anymore."
Watching Hermione turn around and leave, and the door gently close again in sight, Ursula finally said:
"Safina, do you really not know where Mr. MacLean has gone?"
"Well, I really don't know," Safina nodded slightly and sat down on the edge of the bed again, "I didn't ask, and he didn't tell me, so it's naturally impossible for him to know... What's more, at that time, I felt that he actually also I don’t want to say it, I guess he wouldn’t tell me even if I asked him.”
"Then there's really nothing we can do." Ursula couldn't help but sigh softly, "Safina, I don't know if you can see it... I think that Miss Granger likes Mr. MacLean." Otherwise, she wouldn’t have become so disappointed after knowing that she couldn’t see the other person.”
When Safina heard this, she couldn't help but let out a soft "hmm", but soon she turned her head and looked at her sister and said:
"Ursula, what about you?"
"Me?" Ursula looked at her doubtfully.
"Yes! You—" Safina shrugged, "Don't you also like McClain? Otherwise, I wouldn't have come here to look for him in the fog."
"Safina!" Ursula frowned and said helplessly, "I told you, I'm not... well, at least I won't have such unrealistic thoughts now, right?"
"Oh, that's right." Safina curled her lips and said, "For a man like McClain, there are probably only two types of girls who have enough courage to like him - one of them is probably someone who loves everything but him. The one who doesn’t care, and the other kind, is just stupid enough when it comes to emotions.”
"Miss Granger should be the latter, right?" Ursula smiled, "What about the former?"
However, as soon as she finished speaking, the two of them heard several light knocks on the door again. And then, a familiar and erratic voice sounded outside the door.
"Hey? Safina? Ursula? I'm Luna—it's time to go out to lunch!"
In response, Safina immediately spread her hands weakly towards the door and said:
"If I want to see it, it's her."
