Chapter 1916: Evening Work
When Luna first proposed to sit down and drink tea and chat for a while, no one could have imagined that this casual chatter, which was similar to an after-dinner meal, would continue until most of the people fell asleep either lying on the table or leaning back in their chairs.
But, of course, Sarah is definitely unlikely to fall asleep - although she is now almost completely similar to a human as an alchemist android, the android is not human after all, and she does not need to sleep.
In addition to her, there is another person here who is still awake, and that is Luna, who is chatting and chatting more and more energetically.
looked at the other side and persevered until the end, but in the end, he still couldn't resist the sleepiness, and his good friend Hannah fell asleep on the table. Luna thought for a moment, and then gently pulled out her wand and tapped it back and forth, adding a blanket to everyone.
But at this moment, she heard Sarah's slightly lowered voice suddenly come from behind her.
"Let's go!"
Hearing this, Luna turned her head and couldn't help but say with some confusion:
"Where are you going?"
"Didn't you say you'd help me mix the culture medium?" Sarah said, "That's why I've stayed with you for so long...... Miss Lovegood, who has promised someone else's things, can't be fooled. ”
"Oh! Yes...... I didn't cheat, I just had so much fun talking just now that I forgot about it for a while. Luna hurriedly put away the wand in her hand, then ran over and grabbed Sarah's arm and said, "Let's go! Let's go! ”
"Hmm."
Being dragged forward by her hand so excitedly, Sarah didn't seem to care very much. It's just that she is very petite, even if Luna is not big, but the way she is holding her still has a feeling of "an adult taking his child for a walk".
When the two of them returned to the hallway, all the way to Sarah's room at the bottom of the corridor, she pulled her arm out of Luna's hand, stepped forward and opened the door.
It must be said that Sarah's room is still the same as the one that Luna and her sisters had seen when they first arrived a few days ago—half of the huge room was filled with a large number of neatly arranged stone jars, and half of it was a few daily necessities and furniture. And around the rocking chair where Sarah often sits, there are still a large number of parts such as the limbs of the dolls.
Yes, the sight did look quite pervasive, and it was no wonder that Hermione was so wary at the time. In fact, even after that, Hermione rarely came to Sarah's room.
Fortunately, Luna always treats these kinds of strange scenes as usual, and has no other feelings than curiosity.
"Oh, that leg looks so slender!" When she came in, she immediately stared at the mountain of doll parts, "Sarah, can I pick it up and take a look?" ”
"Yes, but not now."
Sarah closed the door and walked straight to the empty stone jar in the middle.
"When you're done with the work that needs to be done for me, you can watch it as you like - or you can sleep with me tonight, anyway, it's almost dawn when you're done."
"Oh," Luna nodded, standing up on her knees, "until dawn?" In other words, the process of preparing that liquid is complicated. ”
"No, it's not complicated," Sarah said casually as she rummaged through the materials next to the stone jar, "It's just that it's just a lot of mixture, and it's a lot of it—okay, help me fill this stone jar with water first." ”
"Okay."
Luna drew her wand again and tried to fill the tank with water, but Sarah stopped her with a backhand.
"Don't use spells," she reminded, "and the water created by magic will have active magical residues that need to sit for a long time before they can be used in alchemy...... Go to the backyard, there is a well over there, hand the bucket to the puppet standing by the well and it will fetch water by itself. ”
"Huh? Oh...... Okay! I'll go! ”
When Luna ran out of the room briskly, Sarah turned her head and glanced towards the door, then shook her head.
"If it had been Granger, I would have asked why I didn't just manipulate the puppet and get to work, right?" She chuckled, "But this Lovegood has obviously found out, but he won't get to the bottom of it...... The human personality is really a wonderful and complex thing. ”
While muttering to herself, Sarah's movements did not lag for a moment. I saw that she had finished sorting the alchemy materials and began to arrange them around this separate stone jar.
And after a while, Luna hurried back again, looked at Sarah, and said:
"Sarah, that puppet is disobedient! It fetched water but didn't bring it over, but kept pouring it into the sink outside the wall...... Oh! ”
Before she could finish speaking, she saw that there was an extra hose on top of the stone jar, which was connected to a hole in the wall. And right now, there is clear water flowing down the pipe into the stone tank, and it looks like it is almost full.
"See?" Sarah glanced at her and said, "Let's make another run if you see that!" Go tell it it's time to stop. ”
"Oh."
Seeing that Luna ran out again with a puff of smoke, Sarah put the last material in her hand away, then straightened up and clapped her hands, and rechecked the alchemy array again.
When she found that the materials were not placed accurately enough in some places, she continued to work on them herself, readjusting them one by one.
Obviously, this kind of alchemy of making dolls is praised by anyone who sees it, and at present, it is precisely because of Sarah's alchemy puppet that the ancient city area can be firmly guarded. However, the process of making dolls is quite tiring.
In order to eliminate all uncertainties, all the steps had to be completed by the alchemist himself, and at most he could only be accompanied by a few assistants who were not responsible for the core program. Otherwise, Sarah could have left all the work to them after making the first dolls.
But in reality, she didn't even allow the activated puppet to step into the room.
Such a large and boring workload would not have been possible if it weren't for a tireless and extremely human-like android like Sarah, who would not have been able to do it day and night.
To be honest, after gaining emotional emotion, even Sarah has begun to feel a little bored working alone day by day.
"Tick ...... Tick...... Tick ......"
Seeing that the water in the pipe gradually stopped flowing, she picked up a long stick that had been placed by the wall and waited quietly for Luna's free labor to return—it was clear that there was still a lot of work for her to help with!
