Chapter 4 A Year with the Tibetan Snowman
Casto woke up before lunch. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
He honestly ran to the table and sat down, without trying to give Mrs. Weasley a hand.
He was the only one at the table. The Weasley boys, plus Harry, had cleaned up the garden in the morning, and they weren't done yet.
Except for Percy - he locked himself in the house.
Ginny avoided punishment outdoors by being Mrs. Weasley's lieutenant - you know, Castor taught them dishes that couldn't be made with magic alone.
They had been glancing warily at Casto, which made it difficult for him to talk to him—because of his ability to cook darkly, Casto felt that as soon as he approached them, they would keep themselves out of the kitchen like hens guarding their chicks.
If it's just Ginny, Casto can tease her. But if Mrs. Weasley was present, he drew the drawings quietly to avoid such embarrassment.
It wasn't until Ginny was tired and sat down next to him to rest that Casto had a chance to ask her.
"You're looking for Luna?" Ginny was a little surprised.
"Luna? No, it's the Lovegood family," Casto was a little strange, "I think I've heard you say that?" ”
"yes, Luna. Lovegood. Right at this table, the day you make honey egg tea for the first time. I said you should be a guest at Luna's house," Ginny thought for a moment, but was a little disappointed, "she has very few friends. ”
"What's going on?" Casto was a little curious, "You're one, right?" ”
"Of course." Ginny glared at him, but a little discouraged, "Except for me....... I really don't know who there is."
"You think I can be her friend?"
"That's right. She's just as interested in novelties as you are, and she's comfortable tasting some of the odd things - she's very good-hearted, but it's quite strange to ordinary people. ”
"Sounds good." Casto came back to his senses, "But you're not going to do it or not." ”
That's when Ginny remembered to get down to business.
"No, they're not there. Luna wants to take advantage of her last good summer vacation to find some magical beasts - like scimitars? Ginny was a little unsure, "The family wants to search in England first, and then look for an opportunity to go to Sweden." ”
Casto's head slammed into the drawings.
Because he found it difficult to modify the interior of a car, even if he had his teacher's manuscript in his possession - even if there was no research on flying cars, it at least recorded a lot of magic scripts that might have been used.
However, why are manuscripts called manuscripts?
The answer is that it is like the prescription prescribed by the old Chinese medicine practitioners, only they can understand it.
That's not to say Nicol. Lemay's handwriting was sloppy only because in many places he simply wrote two words, or did not annotate them at all—which led to Casto himself needing to learn about the ancient scriptures in order to study them himself.
There are even annotations mixed with Hebrew, French, Old English, and so on, which makes Casto difficult to read.
So, this kind of work is not something that can be done simply - and this has led to the constraints of Castor's plans at every turn.
Therefore, he was eager to actually observe what modern alchemy technology was like, rather than purely relying on his own exploration.
"Okay." Casto sighed, but he seemed to remember something when he saw a crowd of people pouring into the room.
"Then I'll go up and put something away." Casto patted Ginny on the shoulder, but raised an eyebrow at the twins as he walked out the door.
Fred and George were stunned.
"yes, yes, we need to go back to our room—" Fred said at once.
"Do your homework, it's August now, and time is a little tight." George is serious.
"So, Ron, you have something to do, too." Fred added.
Harry and Ron were stunned.
"Yes, but I-" He was taken away by the twins.
Harry turned his head, stunned to the closed kitchen door, and then turned back to find Ginny, who was also unresponsive.
He remembered that he hadn't thanked the girl in person—she didn't say a word in the car or when she was punished.
Harry didn't think about how strangely the people around him had left, and approached Ginny.
He seemed to hear a muffled laugh behind the crack in the door.
.
The time in the Burrow is actually quite short.
Casto and Harry arrived on the same day, the morning of the third day of Harry's birthday, July 2.
And on a fine morning on July 11, Casto was sitting at the dining table. Mr. Weasley brought a few yellow parchment envelopes—letters that made them realize that the summer vacation was more than halfway over.
However, when Casto took the letter from Mr. Weasley, he was still weak.
Mr. Weasley gave him a apologetic look.
Over the course of a few days, he converted a large pile of scrap metal and reinforced, reinforcing Mr. Weasley's speed. In addition, for calibration and maintenance, he took Mr. Weasley out of the Burrow to the British Library to find some similar drawings.
But the trip didn't go well, and Casto returned emaciated.
As they made their way through the bustling city, Castor had to correct his impression of Muggles by detailing all sorts of "novelties" to Mr. Weasley.
"These elevators are completely different from the Ministry of Magic!"
"These trains don't look like Hogwarts Express! It can run underground! ”
"Why did it swallow this ticket? Is it hungry? ”
......
Mr. Weasley even wanted Casto to tell him how it worked, but Casto couldn't organize the language.
It's like a child asking you, why don't birds get electrocuted when they stop on a power line? Even if you've learned about step voltage, you can't explain it clearly.
As a result, he never wanted to leave the Burrow again, and even though he was at home, Mr. Weasley couldn't contain his curiosity - albeit much less often.
Casto opened the letter and read it with some emotion. Messenger told him to board the Hogwarts Express from King's Cross Station on September 1. The letter also lists the new books he will be using this year.
Second-graders read:
Standard Spells, Level 2, Miranda. by Goshak
"Breaking with a Female Ghost", Gildero. By Lockhart
"Travelling with Ghouls", Gildero. By Lockhart
"Vacation with the Dominatrix", Gildero. By Lockhart

Traveling on a Boat with a Vampire, by Gildero. By Lockhart
"Wandering with Werewolves", Gildero. By Lockhart
A Year with the Tibetan Yeti, by Gildero. By Lockhart
"Gildero. Lockhart? ”
Casto didn't participate in the other people's discussions, and he suddenly felt a bit of a headache.
He scanned the list back and forth, and finally at the name of a book.
"A year with a Tibetan snowman?" Casto felt that he remembered the events of that year quite clearly, but he still asked Fiona on his left shoulder, "I have been raising you since that year, right?" ”
Fiona pecked his ear lightly.
Castor still felt that something was not right, because his memories were a little blurry when he recalled the events before that year.
My memory is actually pretty good, but it's normal that I can't remember things a little earlier, right?
Castor turned his attention back.
"Maybe it's the same person? If so, he did, I thought he was joking," Casto missed, "I'd love to meet him." ”
