Chapter Forty-Nine: The World Is Wonderful
"Whew, is it really just chocolate?"
After Ron's explanation, Hermione's face finally gradually returned to normal, and she looked at the small pentagonal box in her hand suspiciously, [Chocolate Frog], and hesitated for a while but still couldn't muster up the courage to open it.
"My name is Hermione Granger, and it's a pleasure to meet you, and I think I'd better go ahead and find Neville's toad for now. ”
After a little startle, Hermione's tone was noticeably weaker, her eyes quickly glanced at Elena, who was shoving the last chocolate frog leg into her mouth, and nodded as she was about to leave.
Do you want to run? That's not going to work.
Elena narrowed her eyes, sucked on the chocolate stained on her fingertips, smiled at Hermione, and whispered.
"Wait, this classmate, please stay. ”
The silver-haired little Lori used a strange grammar, as if it were the extremely stiff usage of a foreigner who didn't know English, and as she spoke, Elena stood up and walked briskly towards the door.
??
Hermione stopped in confusion and looked at the silver-haired girl who was slowly approaching, not knowing what she meant.
"You're too slow and you're not very efficient. Don't be so anxious when you encounter a problem, come and come, come and sit for a while, we can discuss and help you together. ”
Wow.
The corners of Elena's mouth curled, and as she reached out to close the compartment door again, she took Hermione's hand and pressed Granger to the seat next to her before she could react.
The little Hermione, who is usually a good girl, has a little strength, which can compare to the strange strength of Elena, who has been trained with the priest and father since she was a child, and she resisted weakly, and was firmly pressed on the seat.
Looking up at the silver-haired girl's delicate face close at hand, and the remaining chocolate marks on the corner of her mouth, Hermione panicked, and finally struggled weakly.
"No, wait, I still have to ......"
"Be quiet, eat candy obediently, and listen to me first. ”
Elena shook her head, snatched the remaining half of the box of Ferrero chocolates from Ron's hand, and without saying a word, peeled off a chocolate ball and stuffed it into Hermione's mouth, directly blocking her follow-up words.
"First of all, do you know the physical characteristics of this toad? Second, have you estimated the distribution of the toad's position based on its moving speed? Finally, as a first-year, can you guarantee that so many older students will be willing to help you?"
With Elena's barrage of questions, little Hermione's body, which was originally full of resistance, gradually softened and shook her head blankly. In fact, at first, she just relied on enthusiasm, simply wanted to help the pitiful-looking round-faced boy, and didn't think too carefully.
"Then what do you say should be done?" Hermione quickly chewed Ferrero into her mouth and swallowed it, raised her head, and asked with a little disbelief, "It's not like you won't give up because of the difficulty." ”
"Of course not. ”
Elena raised an eyebrow, chuckled smugly, turned to look at Harry, and said, "Harry, can you lend me a few silver for a while? I'll pay you back when I get to school." ”
"Hmm, oh, okay. ”
Harry, who was listening to the conversation between the two of them, nodded quickly, counted a handful of silver coins from his pocket and placed them in Elena's palm, looking at Elena curiously, not knowing what she wanted to do.
"Wait a minute......
Elena put away the coins, opened the door to the compartment, looked left and right, and ran out as fast as she could.
After about two or three minutes, the girl returned to the door of the cubicle breathlessly, clapped her hands happily, and said with a smile, "Okay, that's it." Granger, you can sit here in peace. I think it won't be long before Neville's toad arrives here. ”
"Huh, why?" asked Hermione, confused.
"Simple, have you heard of bounties?"
Elena squinted triumphantly and shook her index finger.
"I just asked the conductor's aunt to tell them every time they passed by a box that if they picked up a lost toad and brought it over, they would not only get two pieces of silver from the trolley for free, but they would also know a secret passage that most of the students at Hogwarts had never visited. ”
"Secret passages, I remember mentioning them in A History of Hogwarts, but there's never a record of where they were. Do you know where there is a secret passage?"
Hermione was the first to react, her eyes full of curiosity, and she looked at Elena.
"Of course, this is a secret that Dumbledore himself told me. On the eighth floor of the castle, behind two ugly stone beasts, there is a mysterious place where you need to say a command to enter, and the password changes randomly, but most of them are eaten. ”
Elena smiled mysteriously and glanced at the three children whose eyes were glowing, and she was looking forward to what it would be like if they followed the instructions all the way through the level and finally found out that they had run to the principal's office.
"Well, anyway, thank you. If it's okay, I'll go back first?"
Hermione nodded, and after jockeying down Elena's words, she stood up and straightened the folds in her robe, ready to leave.
Now that you've been here, you still want to leave? This little Hermione Lori is not good......
Elena rolled her eyes, suddenly sank her face, licked her lips, and added in a dark whisper.
"Of course you can leave. However, I don't guarantee that I won't accidentally eat that poor toad as a chocolate frog later. So, I suggest you stay here and wait with us. ”
QAQ!!!X3
This time, not only Hermione, but also Ron and Harry changed their faces, and they looked at the silver-haired little girl standing at the door of the cubicle with a horrified expression, as if they had seen some kind of particularly terrifying beast.
Puff~
Glancing at the three children who were on the verge of a great enemy, Elena burst out laughing, the deliberately terrifying expression on her face quickly melted away like the first snow meeting the sun, bent her fingers, and knocked on the door of the three people's heads one by one.
"Just kidding, how could I do something like that. ”
"Whew...... I'll just say, Elena, that look on your face really scared me. Harry, you say yes, right?"
Hermione breathed a sigh of relief, couldn't help but roll her eyes, and patted Elena's hand angrily.
Harry and Ron on the side also nodded in agreement, mainly combined with Elena's previous skillful operations - slapping, grabbing, biting the head - which gave them a little psychological shadow.
"It's just, I almost thought it was true. ”
"Yes, it's scary. ”
Elena blinked, it seemed that in the time she was away, the trio had introduced themselves to each other and completed the initial small group construction.
Without the damage caused by the contrast between the two magics, it seems that at least the first impression is not as bad as in the original book.
But...... Hermione's little Lori actually dared to shoot her, this is not good, the future family (crossed out) has to distinguish clearly from the beginning, Elena thought about it and said softly.
"Not to mention that toads have a certain toxicity, even non-poisonous frogs contain a large number of parasites in their bodies, so try not to eat them raw. ”
The silver-haired little Lori said as she stretched out her pink little tongue and licked her upper lip, and in the eyes of the three little wizards who gradually became sluggish and frightened, she said seriously with excitement.
"However, frogs are not only highly nutritious, but their meat is also usually exceptionally delicious and healthy. Therefore, the correct way to cook is to pinch, dehead, peel, and remove the internal organs, and then either boil or roast, in short, cook and eat again......"
Tuk-tuk.
Crash.
Before Elena could finish speaking, there was a rhythmic knock on the door outside the cubicle, and then the door was pushed open.
Three boys entered through the doorway, starting with a pale-faced boy with oily blond hair. Behind him were two little fat mounds, one on the left and one on the right, just like his bodyguards, and the little fat man on the left was holding a yellow-green toad in his hand.
"I've heard that if you send this here, you can know a ......"
Draco Malfoy asked expectantly as he pulled open the door.
As the box door opened, the boy happened to hear Elena's last words, and then looked closely at the silver-haired figure with his back to him, his expression instantly became frightened, and he subconsciously wanted to close the door again.
"I'm sorry, we're on the wrong track. ”
Syllable.
The door to the cubicle was firmly grasped and not re-closed.
Elena turned around, her lake-blue eyes glanced lightly at the toad in the hand of the little chubby dun behind her, and moved her gaze back to the blonde little wizard in front of her, but she didn't expect that it was actually little Malfoy and his party who found Neville's toad......
"Yo, Draco, see you again, don't rush to leave. The world is wonderful, you say?"
