"Well, sir, what shall we do now?" Dobby asked.
"Hide first," Tiera said. "There is still a little time before my plan is launched. I need to make some preparations. Before that... let me find you a place to live."
"Yes, sir," said Dobby.
"You know the Gryffindor common room, right?"
"Yes, sir, yes," said Dobby.
"Then let's go." Tiera grabbed Dobby's arm and said, "Take me back."
"Okay, sir." After saying this.
"Whoosh", Tiera and Dobby disappeared from the spot.
The basilisk roared, then got back into the black lake, and returned to the secret room through the passage at the bottom of the black lake.
Not long after the basilisk disappeared, ugly, iron-gray faces emerged from the lake.
"There is an extra house elf today. (Mermaid)" one of the mermaids asked, "Do you want to tell Dumbledore? (Mermaid)"
"No need. (Mermaid language)" said the stronger mermaid next to him, "Dumbledore told us that as long as he does not harm our tribe, let him be."
…
Meanwhile, Tiera and Dobby appeared in the Gryffindor common room.
Tiera led Dobby to the Gryffindor bathhouse and threw Dobby a towel——
That was Tiera's foot towel. Tiera always liked to plan everything in advance...but only in these little details did she make mistakes.
Tiera hopes that Dobby will live like a free man instead of a slave from tonight onwards, which will help "Dobby's Oath" to be completely integrated into his outlook.
"Sir..." Dobby looked at Tiera doubtfully.
"Take a bath, Dobby. You are a free man. Take a bath, and then have a good sleep. I will take you to Hagrid tomorrow. You are free now, Dobby, but you still need a job." Feed themselves."
"Work...work?" Dobby tilted his head in confusion, "Dobby works for Tiera for a reason! Dobby is the best at work!"
"No, Dobby, that wasn't called work before, it was called being exploited." Tiera said, and then she took out a gold galleon from her pocket and placed it in Dobby's palm.
"Sir...is this?" Dobby looked at the gold coins in his hand with some confusion.
"This is called work, Dobby." Tiera said with a smile, "I give you money and you work, this is called work."
"No, no, no, sir, Dobby can't take sir-"
"Hold Dobby, hold it, do you think this is just a gold coin? No, Dobby, this is your salary, this is a class leap, this is a new life!" Tiera said, "This means It takes you from a slave to a free man equal to me."
"Equal, equal." Tiera saw tears welling up in Dobby's eyes, which were bigger than the mouth of a bowl, and quickly pushed him into the bathroom and closed the curtain.
"Take a good bath, Dobby, just like washing away your painful past, and then facing the new future."
"Sir...sir, you are so great...woo..." Tiera had already heard Dobby crying in the bathroom, rolled her eyes, and then said:
"Come to me in my dormitory after washing," Tiera said. Then, regardless of what Dobby had to say, he turned around and left.
Tiera's fresh skin that was integrated into this summer vacation, the clothes made by Tiera's second shedding, and the oath that became the basis of Dobby's three views and cognition through the "loophole".
Logically speaking, with this triple insurance, Tiera can do whatever she wants with Dobby.
But Tiera was not prepared to treat Dobby as a temporary tool.
If he could successfully take that step and successfully complete his ritual of becoming a god, then Dobby would become a fulcrum in the wizarding world.
If you achieve it, you will benefit the world.
Tiera didn't mind planting red fire before leaving.
After Tiera returned to the dormitory, she first covered Harry with a quilt and tucked it in, then picked up a book, sat on her bed and started reading.
About thirty minutes later——
When Dobby turned a bottle of shower gel into foam in the bathroom, and finally had enough fun, he timidly walked in from outside Tiela's dormitory.
"Sir...I'm sorry...for keeping you waiting for so long. Dobby is having fun——"
"No need to apologize, Dobby." Tiera interrupted gently and closed her door. Although he was indeed a little impatient with waiting, Tiera still said with a smile on her face:
"No need to apologize, Dobby, you are a free man now. By lending you the bathroom, I tacitly agree that you can play in the bathroom as long as you want."
"Oh...sir..." Dobby said movedly.
Tiera patted her bed and stood up.
"You can sleep in my bed tonight," Tiera said. "Tomorrow we will go to Hagrid's place to find you a job."
"Sir, sir, let me sleep, where can I sleep?" Tiera saw tears welling up in Dobby's eyes again, "But, Dobby can't sleep, Dobby can't sleep on Sir's bed... No wizard has ever, ever allowed, allowed a house-elf to sleep in..."
"Yes, Dobby, I allow you to sleep in my bed." Tiera said, "You must remember that you are a free man, and you are also our revolutionary comrade. You must always remember that you and I are As equals, you have no place to sleep tonight, so I will temporarily lend you my bed. This is nothing. This is how friends get along. Before coming to Hogwarts - "
Tiera pointed at the sleeping Harry and said.
"Before coming to Hogwarts, Harry and I slept in the same bed. It's like this among friends."
"Oh... no sir, Dobby, Dobby can't..." Dobby cried again.
"Consider this the first order I give you." Tiera said, "Seriously, Dobby, although I know this is not your fault, you really need to start reshaping your understanding. , you need to always remember that you are a free person, there is not much difference between you and us."
"Oh... Sir... Sir is really, really... so great..." Dobby was just howling now. He might have just dried up his tears and runny nose.
"Now, go to bed and sleep like a wizard, Dobby!" Tiera said. "That's an order!"
"Okay...Okay sir." Dobby climbed onto Tiera's bed and sank into the soft quilt——
This was a feeling of warmth and comfort that it had never enjoyed before. Dobby had imagined what it would be like to sleep in such a big bed countless times after Malfoy fell asleep——
Now Dobby felt it.
Everything that happened after he was freed far exceeded any of Dobby's previous expectations.
