Chapter 176 Gluttony
After working at Hogwarts for many years, Filch obviously has a deeper understanding of magic than most squibs. For example, he may not be able to identify the type of magic potion at a glance, but he can It is possible to tell the specific effects of taking that type of potion as soon as the name of the potion is known.
It is regrettable
Filch is a squib after all.
The anonymous letter he opened at this time was entirely written in ancient magic script.
be honest.
This letter was thrown to the senior students of Hogwarts. They had not studied the ancient magic script in depth. They knew the meaning of each rune letter, so they might not be able to understand the content of this anonymous letter. Moreover, they were familiar with the runes. What about Filch who knows nothing?
Therefore, when trying to read the anonymous letter, Filch was completely confused.
He had a vague feeling.
He knew every rune written on the anonymous letter, but he just couldn't understand the true meaning of the letter.
Smelling the scent of a close friend mixed with the faint smell of blood, Filch, whose IQ was completely superior to his appearance, quietly made a decision, that is, to turn to his omnipotent master to decipher the specific content of this anonymous letter.
later.
Drive the dewclaw hard into the distillery mark on your wrist.
"buzz"
When the whole office was filled with a stronger smell of blood, Filch watched the wound on his wrist heal quickly, put the anonymous letter in his pocket, picked up the oil lamp, and left with Mrs. Norris. office.
at the same time.
Louis naturally received Filch's call.
just
He couldn't leave for now.
Louis and a group of friends came to visit Hagrid. Louis's secondary purpose was to continue to strengthen Lu Wei's soul strength, and his main purpose was to supplement the hatching knowledge of fire dragon eggs from Hagrid.
Hagrid's preference for large magical animals is indeed beyond the imagination of Louis and others.
Two hours
A full two hours of eloquent speech!
If it hadn't been for looking at the time too late and the twins and Galen looked drowsy, Hagrid, who was still not satisfied, might have dragged them into a chat all night long and imparted to them all kinds of unpopular knowledge about fire dragons.
such as
What postures do fire dragons like to use in daily communication?
However, although the twins and Galen were not very interested in the fire dragon, and they all yawned when they said goodbye to Hagrid, Louis did obtain a lot of information that was beneficial to the egg hatching plan.
For example, the hatching methods of each type of fire dragon eggs seem to be similar, but in fact some details of the hatching process are completely different.
It is precisely these details in the incubation process that directly affect whether the hatching of the fire dragon eggs can proceed smoothly.
These ones.
This is a key point that has not been recorded in many magic books.
Therefore, Louis, who had gained a lot from this trip, decided to thank Hagrid and take advantage of his spare time to consolidate Knockturn Alley to get a dragon egg as a gift for him.
However, on the way back to the castle, George and Fred, who were in high spirits again, could not suppress their complaints. They said to each other:
"Louis, Galen, what happened to Hagrid today?"
"Why does Hagrid seem to become a human being when we talk about fire dragons?"
"Yes, I almost suspected that what we saw was not Hagrid, but Lee Jordan wearing a layer of Hagrid's skin!"
He had never had a good impression of the black brothers. Galen frowned when he heard this and said slightly dissatisfied: "George, Fred, and Hagrid just like fire dragons, so they were a little verbose today. You should know Right?"
"All right"
Knowing that Hagrid took great care of Galen on weekdays and could be called his father at Hogwarts, George and Fred looked at each other and hurriedly changed the subject to Louis:
"Hey, Louis, we have an appointment with Angelina and Aria to go to Hogsmeade this weekend. Do you want to come together?"
Counting the days, this weekend happened to be the time to go and integrate Knockturn Alley. Louis, who thought for a moment, originally wanted to refuse directly.
but.
After hearing George and Fred talk about Hogsmeade, Louis suddenly had an ominous premonition.
Knowing that Dumbledore, Grindelwald and others always said that he had the gift of prophecy, it must not be unreasonable. After hesitating for a few seconds, Louis said:
"Do I have to choose to go this weekend? To be honest, I feel like this is a wrong decision."
"Why?" George and Fred asked in unison.
Louis faced the two of them and said seriously: "I heard from Filch that it's not very peaceful outside recently. How about we change the time?"
"uh-huh"
George nodded, and Fred suggested with a smile:
"Then let's go ask Angelina and Aaliya what they mean. Louis, by the way, would you like to ask Anne if she has time next week?"
"can."
Although George and Fred agreed happily at the moment, based on Louis' understanding of them, the chance of them showing up in Hogsmeade Village on weekends was at least [-]%.
no way.
Who told Louis that the more dangerous places there were, the more Fred wanted to see George, who was pursuing excitement and adventure?
of course.
The two of them still had a little idea.
After being reminded by Louis, George and Fred, who communicated with each other through their eyes, decided to go to Hogsmeade privately for a visit. However, they were not prepared to take Angelina and Aaliya on the adventure. mean.
"perhaps"
"Can you drag Galen along?"
The idea of bringing an extra layer of security came to mind. George and Fred continued to communicate with each other with their eyes, and soon gave up the idea of taking Galen on an adventure.
After all, if he asked Galen to go with him, he would definitely ask what Louis meant.
Wait until Louis goes with them
Thinking about how boring night outings with Louis are, can they still be called Hogsmeade adventures?
It will be another day trip to Hogsmeade Village!
Soon, when George and Fred decided to go on a weekend adventure to Hogsmeade, and they were the only two to go secretly, Louis, who had already seen through their minds, did not say anything, and just prepared to protect the two of them secretly. After making preparations, he separated from everyone after returning to the castle and came to Filch who had started patrolling the night.
The moment he received the anonymous letter from Filch, Louis narrowed his eyes slightly when he looked at the runes written on the letter.
Then, the next second when Louis controlled a little of the second-turn Obscurus magic and tried to analyze these rune letters
suddenly!
Every rune on the letter seemed to have come alive. Intruded by the magic power of the Obscurus, it separated from the letter one by one, first floating above the heads of Louis and Filch, and then weaving into a A very real fantasy.
Located in a fantasy world.
When a swamp-like humanoid monster slowly came into view of the two of them, Filch stared closely at the monster's slightly familiar face and couldn't help but scream:
"Is it Cruise?"
It was Louis instead.
When he really saw the Cruise that Filch mentioned, he suddenly transformed into a mire and wrapped around a wizard's body, greedily absorbing every ounce of magic power in the wizard's body. He suddenly recalled the homeless man's attack on Mal. The sight of happiness, the first thought that flashed through his heart was
"These mutated Muggles and squibs who took the wolf blood potion, the mutated monsters cannot be those who crave wizard magic."
"Glutton, huh?"
