Chapter 660: Hagrid’s Confusion: Is Dumbledore Up to Something Again?
When Kyle returned to the second floor of St. Mungo's, he was greeted by the sound of an angry growl from Sirius's room.
"If you lot don't shut up, I'll hang you upside down from the ceiling in the corridor!"
Moments later, the door burst open, and three disgruntled figures were unceremoniously shoved into the hallway by Mr. Weasley.
Ron stood in the corridor, muttering as he glared at the closed door. "Honestly, we only said a few things. We weren't bothering him..."
"But we did bother him," Hermione countered matter-of-factly. "Waking him up twice? Sirius was right to throw us out."
"It's not our fault," Ron protested with a shrug. "That room's so small, even whispering would be too loud."
"Never mind," Harry said, trying to diffuse the tension. "It's the holidays. We can come back whenever we want. Where's Mr. Weasley?"
"I don't know," Hermione replied. "He's probably outside looking for Bill. He said he wanted to go back with us."
As they continued talking, Kyle descended the stairs, avoiding drawing attention to himself. He had no interest in explaining—again—how he had managed to get to St. Mungo's from Hogwarts. Without a word, he walked past the trio and headed straight to the waiting room on the first floor. From there, he exited through the passage and stepped outside.
Outside, Mr. Weasley was chatting enthusiastically with Bill.
"How about I drive us back?" he asked, eyeing Sirius's car with barely concealed glee.
