But those
ELVES were FOLLOWING her. Some might even view it as
CHASING. So basically, Lainey RAN from them with a battle cry on her lips,
"BAAARRRRRRRBEEEEQUUUUEEEEEEEEEE!" She might have gotten away from them, too, but she only managed one lap around the Slytherin table before she decided she was too old for this. That trunk she was carrying was heavy.
So time to ditch the trunk.
Then re-start the merry chase with those Soon-To-Be-BBQ'd-Elves.
"I need to see WEST ODESSA, anyone that has information about a missing beater's bat named MORTIMER, and some House Elf Repellant. STAT."
Well and the easiest thing to do was to simply put his hand up and wave his little piece of paper at Lainey like a flag of surrender.
Except he didn't surrender a single indication that he knew what she was on about with this bat or repellent.
