Chapter 1002: Am I Not Worth This Money?
The male Muggle had been scolding, and Xenophilius observed and judged that the other party didn't seem to be accompanied by anyone else, so he stepped forward: "I beg your pardon, this gentleman... But the roller coaster looks like it's about to start... Belch... I... I think we should hurry up and get on the bus. β
Saying this, Xenophilius pointed to the impatient guests, the middle-aged male Muggle looked at the guy who suddenly appeared in front of him and looked a little crazy, looked at the other party's somewhat exaggerated dress, and asked with some confusion: "Sorry, sir, what are you ......?"
"Do you want to sit with me?" Xenophilius's words made the middle-aged Muggle stunned, Xenophilius swallowed, quickly glanced at the roller coaster, and explained, "My side... My companion had already finished the previous trip, and I was unlucky enough to be left alone..."
Instead of continuing to pay attention to the strange man in front of him, the male Muggle simply straightened up, stood on tiptoe, raised his head to look into the distance, and muttered, "Boy, count yourself fast." β
With that, he took a few steps towards the exit at the rapid whistle of the staff, but after hesitating for a moment, he turned back in a huff - and then, as the last man, he could only sit next to Xenophilius, and then he snapped and fastened his seat belt.
Xenophilius had already taken off the hat on his head and held it in his arms, revealing his white hair like marshmallows, and when he saw the male Muggle sitting down, he asked with some curiosity: "Sir, why did you come to ride the roller coaster alone?
The anger on the Muggle man's face had not yet dissipated, and when he heard this, he leaned back on the back of the chair and blurted out in a somewhat impulsive tone, "I'll just play alone, can't I?"
"Absolutely... Belch... But sir, you are surrounded by very, very much harassment. Xenophilius slapped his hat around the middle-aged male Muggle, as if to chase away a multitude of large, invisible moths, "They are invisible, they will float into your ears and mess with your brain." Mr... There are many around you that are only buzzing around here, which is dangerous. β
The middle-aged male Muggle looked at Xenophilius's movements in astonishment, tilted his head suddenly, dodged the hat that the other party almost hit him on the nose, and then moved away from him a few points, he looked at Xenophilius's robes with strong colors, and guessed the tone and sentences of Xenophilius's words just now, and made a judgment in his heart - the person in front of him was dressed so strangely, and what he said was brainless, and the wording of his speech was incomprehensible, it seemed that this person was either a little delirious, or some delirious artist...
Noticing the male Muggle's expression, and the female Muggle's reaction just now, Xenophilius grabbed his hat firmly, and began to say to himself in a somewhat sad tone: "Pandora... It's all that kid's fault, my daughter and granddaughter are not close to me anymore... Neither the raw cheek juice nor the Gordigan tea could win back their attention... That kid has so much to do, he doesn't even let go of the birds... My daughter won't let me say..."
Listen to Xenophilius's chatter and self-talk, although there are a few words in the other party's words that he doesn't understand what they mean, and he doesn't let go of what a bird is... But this middle-aged male Muggle understood that the other party was the same as himself, and his daughter had also encountered a scumbag, and suddenly, he felt that this strangely dressed guy looked much more pleasing to the eye.
But unsuspectingly, the roller coaster started abruptly, and both of their necks flashed back, and in the creak of chains, the roller coaster began to enter the small dark house in front of them.
The middle-aged Muggle, who had been a little sideways to listen to Xenophilius, could not maintain his original posture and leaned back in his chair.
"Oh!"
"Whew!"
The startled male Muggle turned his head sideways to Xenophilius, who also screamed, and met the other's gaze, the two looked at each other, Xenophilius said a little in the eye: "Oh, this scared me, your things don't run smoothly." β
"yes, hell, it's not usually so strong...", the middle-aged male Muggle scolded.
"Looks like we didn't have much luck today. Xenophilius frowned strangely, and although he had just started to drive indoors, the darkness made the two of them suddenly relax.
"When I'm in a bad mood, I like to go to the playground by myself for a while. The middle-aged Muggle's tone was much more familiar and friendly, "My daughter is older, and she doesn't have a close relationship with me, and my wife doesn't like to come. β
During the climb, Xenophilius's feet in his boots shook in dissatisfaction: "I used to live in the mountains with my daughter, but she doesn't accompany me anymore, and my granddaughter doesn't like to stay with me, so I can only write some manuscripts at home alone after work..."
The middle-aged man was surprised that the other party needed to commute to work, but when he heard his granddaughter, he was a little unsure of his age, so he couldn't help but ask, "Granddaughter?! Ahh
In a scream, the roller coaster that had climbed to the fixed point began to dive down like a detached cannonball, the speed was particularly fast, moving rapidly, turning a corner frantically, Xenophilius's whole body leaned on the middle-aged male Muggle beside him, the middle-aged male Muggle wanted to dodge to the other side, but the space was limited after all, and he couldn't completely get rid of Xenophilius's dependence. He stared straight at the side of Xenophilius' face, clutching the armrest stiffly, a little overwhelmed for a moment.
But soon their embarrassment was relieved, as the roller coaster swirled and flipped, their bodies also swayed with the roller coaster because of inertia, and turned into a male Muggle leaning on the shoulder of Xenophilius, this is still only the beginning, but although the track of this roller coaster does not look too big, it is actually very long because of too much rolling, and the difference between the highest point and the lowest point is very large, so that the speed of the car is very fast, and in the lap after lap, the emotions of Xenophilius and the middle-aged male Muggle are also stimulated gradually high.
"It's just... It's like... Billy Wigg worm... The bite has arrived..."Xenophilius's marshmallow-like gray hair was blown into a mess, "I like... This... Feel... The feeling of being light and fluttering..."
"Oh my God... I didn't find it so fun to sit on this before. The middle-aged man shouted happily, squinting a few wrinkles out of the corners of his eyes, "Wait, man, your hat is gone." β
"Oh? really. Xenophilius was watching the scenery as he climbed, but when he looked down, he realized that the hat in his hand was gone.
The middle-aged man reminded: "You can tell those employees later, you know, people often drop things when they sit here." β
"It's okay~" Xenophilius said with a serious but nonchalant tone, "My wife and daughter often say that what is lost will always come back to us in the end. β
"Your wife is a man full of wisdom. The middle-aged Muggle replied with a serious face before the roller coaster crossed the apex of the slope and started again.
After another successive roll, Xenophilius, who was free, followed the example of the Muggle passengers around him in a shrill scream, raised his arms and waved them for a long time, and then after seeing the celebration of a pair of brothers in the front row, he learned to clench his hands into fists and swung them at the middle-aged male Muggle.
The middle-aged Muggle was silent for only a few seconds, then obediently raised his fist to meet Xenophilius, and with a grunt, some dull fist slamming sounded, and halfway through the journey, the two middle-aged men laughed uncontrollably and happily as they rushed through a large ring and began to slow down.
After the flip, the roller coaster brakes suddenly, and with a creak, the heads of Xenophilius and the middle-aged male Muggle both flashed forward.
"Here we go again..."The middle-aged male Muggle rubbed his neck, he felt that the cervical spondylosis that had been working at the desk all the year round seemed to be cured under such a sudden traction.
"That's right, it's like being forgotten...... I forgot about it. Xenophilius shook his head and complained, "It seems that I have cervical spondylosis." β
After braking, the roller coaster slowly moves forward to enter the platform. The roller coaster seemed to be a little slower than Allen was lying on the platform.
Xenophilius sat there with the middle-aged Muggle, Xenophilius sighed as he looked at the platform he was about to arrive, and an indescribable feeling hit him, and he muttered, "That's what it feels like to be hooked by a bug hook...".
Xenophilus turned his head and looked at his colleague as he had not yet entered the dark area of the room, and saw that the male Muggle had twisted his head a little unnaturally to the side without looking at him, and he thought that the other person felt similar to him, as the whole person seemed to be in a trance more than his daughter.
Finally, the roller coaster entered the platform, and after coming to a stop, the passengers who had just ridden the roller coaster had not recovered from the excitement just now, but they still left their seats with a smile and rushed to the exit.
Xenophilius and the middle-aged male Muggle also got out of the car, but they didn't speak all the way, until they reached the exit, Xenophilius sorted out his fancy clothes and stretched out his hand to the male Muggle: "This gentleman, it's a pleasure to meet you." β
"Yes, so do I, sir. The middle-aged male Muggle reached out and shook Xenophilius, but his eyes were deliberately sideways, never on Xenophilius, the two shook hands for a while, and then the male Muggle noticed the eyes of the people around him and quickly took his hand back.
"Then sir, I'll have to go shopping again to see if I can meet that scumbag again. The Muggle said goodbye to Xenophilius, then turned away without looking back.
"I have to go find my daughter and granddaughter. Xenoflius choked on a sour nose as if he had drunk a large cup of Goldigan tea, coughed dryly, waved at the male Muggle's back, and walked in that direction, ready to rush to the Ferris wheel.
"Mr. Goodlov, your hat. At this moment, a man's voice stopped Xenophilius, and he turned his head to find that it was an armed man from the Red Division of the Umbrella, who handed him the hat he had just thrown out.
Xenophilius shrugged as he put his hat back over his head as he looked at the Aurors, "Thank you, I must say you're amazing, I didn't notice you were following me. β
"Thank you for the compliment, Mr. Goodlov, but it's someone else who is following you today, and I just happened to see your hat missing... I beg your pardon, I have to keep up with my goals. The Umbrella Wizard bowed to Xenophilius and walked away quickly.
Pandora was always right, though they came back in a somewhat unexpected way. Xenophilius straightened his hat and slowly moved on, and as he was about to leave the gate of the roller coaster area, he caught a glimpse of the roller coaster's ticket office and paused, where there was a large screen showing video footage of the tourists on the roller coaster.
The female Muggle she had met before walked towards Xenophilius with her nephew and niece holding a picture - until the other party spotted Xenophilius, then pulled the children around and walked in the other direction.
Xenophilius watched for a moment, and found that the images were not clear, and the Muggles in their hands did not moveβbut after seeing the video on the screen showing him fisting with a male Muggle, Xenophilius shook his head and stepped forward.
Xenophilius touched the gold galleons in his pocket, "Oh, yes, you have to use Muggle money. Then he glanced up at the price list, "... Hmm?Muggles are so expensive to print a picture that doesn't move?!"
Xenophilius, who realized that he hadn't exchanged enough pounds at Gringotts, shouted in surprise, and then turned around and walked out a little stupidly, he planned to go to the Ferris wheel to ask his companions for Muggle money, but then he suddenly felt a burning gaze and looked up to find that behind the green space in the distance, the male Muggle was holding a picture in his hand and looking at him with a hurt face.
Xenophilius didn't need to be a deceptive to know what was in the other person's eyesβ'Am I not worth this money?'
