Chapter 190 The Redemption of the Rooster
"Still not recruiting?"
"Then it's useless, burn it?"
…
The Weasley brothers were grilling fish happily.
The fuel was the book - I don't know how it was restored, but it was really nice to start a fire with.
"Brush oil, George!"
"Okay!"
George, who was controlling the flame, agreed while carefully brushing cooking oil on the grilled fish - if you want the grilled fish to be delicious, this thing is indispensable.
Of course, there is also the prepared sauce - these things drip down under the heat of the flame, fall on the diary that serves as the fire source, make a small popping sound, and then emit a rich aroma.
"It's been a week, and you're being very harsh with your words..."
Fred glanced at the fire, the flames burned, and the diary was reborn - under the influence of wind and fire, the diary flipped and turned, forming an artistic fire source.
It’s such a waste to use it to grill fish…
"How about we borrow some sweet potatoes from the Hufflepuffs?"
"It's a good idea. Anyway, the fire source is stable...it's really useful..."
George admired, "I'm watching the fire, you go to the greenhouse and have a look, order more, and give them some baked ones when you're done!"
【I said! 】
Such writing suddenly appeared on the diary.
Probably for George to see clearly, the font was very large, and several letters filled the page, but George ignored it - it didn't matter whether he said it or not. This old diary should know that its priority today is not to knit anything. Cheating trick, but bake this fish and those sweet potatoes.
Not long after, Fred came back with a large handful of sweet potatoes using magic.
"Let's grill the fish first, then we'll use the earth flame to control it, and then we'll heat up the earth, then we can roast the sweet potatoes."
As George spoke, he directed Fred to use the transformation technique to make an earth oven, and by the way, he added the last layer of seasoning to the fish.
"It's not done yet?"
"Hired."
"Let's see," Fred and George exchanged glances, "and see what it's going to do."
The flame was extinguished, and as soon as the diary was displayed, a few pages were roughly torn off and I wiped my hands.
"Say it."
[The treasure requires food sacrifices...well, give Slytherin enough food before you can try to open Slytherin's treasure. 】
"Slytherin and Hufflepuff? Hell, they're not even close."
But then the two discovered that without Nick, they could not communicate with the diary - the diary simply described how to get the treasure...
[After Slytherin and Hufflepuff quarreled, they couldn't eat Hufflepuff's magical food, especially the roasted rooster... Only with the sacrifice of enough fresh roasted chickens will the secret of the treasure be revealed. ! 】
"Roast chicken... Slytherin?"
Fred and George looked at each other - they didn't seem to be close to each other, but the so-called traps and lies were actually from the gastronomy department?
But the trap is undoubtedly...
"Forget it, go back and communicate with Nick...it will also come to sacrifice, so there should be no problem...but now..."
The two of them each took a piece of grilled fish, lit the diary again, and then stuffed it into the earthen oven - it was a lie anyway, so it was better to let it use its remaining heat.
——
"They were actually grilling fish by the lake..." Andrew spent a long time and finally got the clues about the twins, and rushed over with the draft he had already prepared.
Sure enough, next to the black lake, those two iconic red hairs are very bright.
When Andrew came over, the two of them had already built an earthen stove, and next to it was a pile of sweet potatoes that were probably brought from the greenhouse. As for the grilled fish, half of it was already in their stomachs.
"Good afternoon, brothers Weasley."
"Good afternoon, classmate Taylor, is it not against the rules to eat fish and roasted sweet potatoes?"
"Of course not, it would be better if I had a sweet potato." Andrew sat down with a smile, "Well, in return, I allow you to do me a favor."
Despite the dazed look in their eyes, Andrew bluntly stated the reason for his visit, "Your sister, Ginny Weasley, seriously violated school rules and lost an extremely dangerous notebook - it seems that you also Don’t you know?”
The sweet potatoes and the class location are not in the same greenhouse - if they have not moved away, it will be much easier to deceive, otherwise they will have to ask for help or even need Professor McGonagall to come forward, which will be much more difficult to do.
After all, Andrew had to convince Professor McGonagall that the diary was dangerous and she needed to put pressure on the students.
"Ginny? What are you going to do to her?"
The two of them directly touched the wand - this was much more intense than Ron's reaction.
"It's not me, it's her. I'm trying hard not to get her fired, so please calm down. We are seriously discussing the solution to a problem."
Andrew glanced at the burning earth stove - I have to say that this thing is well made.
"Okay, lost, but what can we do?"
"Actually, someone handed that dangerous thing to Mr. Filch's office, but an unscrupulous thief stole the notebook from someone else's lost property... and basically everyone I know recommends you, Said you can definitely handle this."
Andrew looked at the fire, used the wand to get a flower, and used the transfiguration spell to solidify it on his hand, "I promise, even that thief with low morals will not be fired, and Ginny herself will not be fired. If I can't do it, Come on, I’ll drop out.”
Squeezing the flame and extinguishing it, Andrew smiled happily, "I think you don't want to see Ginny expelled from school because of her mistakes - if it's just a solitary confinement, that's fine."
Who do you blame for being morally inferior?
The twins had the urge to hit someone.
But that's absolutely not allowed - no matter whether they win or lose, the three of them will be expelled together.
"We won't betray that person, but we can put him in detention instead of him. But as for Ginny, you have to let her just stay in detention. Can you do that?"
George pretended to be thoughtful - if the fun is gone, they can find it again. If Ginny is expelled, it will be over, not to mention that they are still burdened with possible expulsion.
Merlin's beard, why does Hogwarts seem to have changed, and he is expelled at every turn!
"Okay, I make the decision. When will you hand over that notebook to me?"
"What does it look like?"
"Tattered, blank inside, signed outside, Tom Riddle."
"Okay, there will be your sweet potatoes in the evening."
The twins agreed wholeheartedly.
——
"Is it really at night? So soon?"
Andrew was stunned looking at the diary in his hand and the three sweet potatoes wrapped in it.
Damn it, three sweet potatoes. Are these the most terrifying sweet potatoes in the entire wizarding world?
He briefly checked the diary. His transformation technique could not affect it at all - there was no doubt that it was genuine.
"I will try to adjust and make the confinement as easy as possible."
Andrew agreed wholeheartedly, 'These two are so efficient...it's just that their consciences hurt a little bit by using Ginny's matter to blackmail them...'
'This Taylor really means what he says. He lied to him with false news. My conscience feels a little painful...'
The three of them shook hands and made peace. Andrew tangledly carried the diary and sweet potatoes and walked towards Professor McGonagall's office - this thing is too dangerous, it is better to hand it in quickly. He did not tease the person who took the opportunity to learn black magic. courage.
