Chapter 599: School Kitchen

Hufflepuff's move changed the wizarding world and greatly enhanced the status of Hogwarts. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

The pure-blood wizarding families eventually had to compromise when they reached an agreement with Helga Hufflepuff to agree to the Hogwarts education model, allowing Muggle-born wizards to enroll and forming a board of directors to control Hogwarts.

As for Hogwarts breaking away from the control of the Board of Trustees and conducting school teaching activities independently, it was a matter for the Headmaster later.

But it has to be said that the success of the Hufflepuff and Hogwarts model was definitely a major event that changed the course of the entire wizarding world in the era of a thousand years ago, and wizarding schools like Hogwarts sprung up all over the world.

More and more Muggle wizards were recruited into schools, and the traditional single family, master-apprentice, and secret magical inheritance methods were completely changed, and universal magical education became the main education model in the wizarding world.

Helga Hufflepuff herself was the Headmaster of Hogwarts until her death, and she never left the place, even after her death, buried at Hogwarts, passing on her favorite Gold Cup as the only relic to her descendants.

As with the Slytherin Vaults, the location of Hufflepuff's grave has always been a mystery.

Because she was buried by a house-elf, no one knew exactly where Hufflepuff's grave was.

For thousands of years, countless latecomers have tried to find her burial place inside the school, but no one has succeeded.

Evan carefully analyzed all the historical information he could find, and he believed that the key breakthrough point was in the hands of the house-elves.

As well as being the greatest wizard and educator in the history of magic, Hufflepuff was also the greatest cook, and the house-elves were her assistants.

Evan didn't think that the Hufflepuff Secret Treasure Key would be brought to the coffin by her, but Hufflepuff's closest friend in the rest of her life was undoubtedly the house-elves.

Everything is kept by them, and even the house-elves are responsible for their final burial.

At the time, Helga Hufflepuff provided shelter to all the elves who had lost their place of existence due to the war.

Let them be a part of Hogwarts, and the so-called ordinary friends in the hints she left behind should be elves.

Since Hufflepuff times, Hogwarts has been home to the largest number of house-elves in the wizarding world.

For thousands of years, they have lived in the kitchens beneath the castle, where they have built their own huge underground kingdoms.

Not surprisingly, both the treasure key and the secrets of the Hufflepuff tomb are kept in the hands of the house-elf.

Last semester, Evan asked Dobby and the other house-elves about it, but they all said they didn't know.

He speculates that these secrets, kept by the house-elf ancestors, may have been lost and no one has passed them down.

It's no surprise that house-elves have been enslaved for too long.

They have lost their civilization heritage and have become completely appendages of wizards.

If they really had such an important clue in their possession, they would have told the headmaster a long time ago, instead of hiding it themselves.

Although no one knows, there will definitely be some clues in the kitchen.

Not long ago, Evan found a blueprint for the early construction of the castle in the library's forbidden area.

It was interspersed in a very unpopular magic book, and had not been borrowed for hundreds of years.

The basement on the map was much larger than it is now, and the large piece that disappeared later was near the kitchen.

This drawing confirmed what Evan had been guessing all along, and combined with the information he had received earlier, he felt that it was necessary to check it out.

Evan led Hermione into the basement, the gateway to the Slytherin and Hufflepuff common rooms.

The two of them descended a stone staircase down a narrow passage on the left.

It wasn't a dimly underground, like the one leading to Snape's underground classroom.

Instead, they found themselves in a wide stone corridor, illuminated by torches all around, and decorated here and there delightful pictures, on which the main thing was to eat.

They walked over to the picture of the large fruit bowl, and Aven stretched out his index finger and gently scratched the big green pear.

The pear squirmed, eating and laughing, and suddenly turned into a large green doorknob.

"This is the entrance to the school kitchen!" said Aven.

He pulled the door open, revealing a low, dark, deep foyer.

"Let's go in and get ready!" said Aven.

He remembered the last time he came, surrounded by countless elves, and showed a wry smile.

"What preparation?!" Hermione asked, staring nervously at the foyer.

"You'll know right away!" Evan took Hermione's small hand and walked inside.

The next second, they walked into the picture, which was a large room with a high ceiling, as large as the auditorium above, surrounded by glittering copper pots and basins, and a large brick fireplace at the other end of the room.

They seemed to sense something, and before they could see more clearly, a lot of green things were running towards them from the center of the room.

Hermione couldn't help but take a step back, and then she realized that it was house-elves running towards her.

There are hundreds of them, which is incredible.

"Sir, miss, do you want anything?" the elves asked aloud, huddled over.

Each of them had a smile on their faces, and waited for Evan and Hermione to give their orders.

Before the two of them could speak, another screaming elf rushed over.

He slammed into Aven's upper abdomen, hugging him tightly, tightly.

This guy is Dobby!

Even though they had only met more than a month ago, he was thrilled that Evan had come to visit him in the kitchen.

He hugged Evan with a lot of force, and Evan hurriedly asked him to get off his body.

Hermione looked at the house-elves around her in surprise and the two of them, adjusting for a long time.

In fact, she hadn't seen Dobby in a long time.

Dobby's big green eyes like ping-pong balls were filled with tears of joy, and they looked exactly as they remembered.

The nose as slender as a pencil, the bat-like ears, and the long fingers and feet......

None of this has changed, except that the clothes are very different from the original.

When Dobby worked for the Malfoy family, he wore that old dirty pillowcase all year round.

Now, he's dressed in all sorts of weird combinations, worse than the wizards at the World Cup.

He wore a teapot jacket with a large number of colorful badges pinned to his head, a horseshoe-patterned tie on his bare chest, a pair of children's soccer shorts underneath, and two mismatched socks on his feet.

One of them was the black sock that Harry had taken off his foot and tricked Mr. Malfoy into throwing it to Dobby, thus freeing Dobby, and the other had pink and orange stripes printed all over it.

It's a style that Evan hasn't seen before, and all the money he pays Dobby is used to buy socks, which are replaced almost every week.

In a sense, Dobby is probably the hippest house-elf!(To be continued.) )
