The wait was bound to be long, especially since they were still being followed.

Even Van Lin became a little apprehensive, and he couldn't be sure if Luna's father was still ......

Barely ten seconds later, the door slammed open, and in front of them stood Senon Ferrius Lovegood, barefoot in a man's pajamas that looked like faded colors. His long, marshmallow-like white hair was dirty and messy.

Compared to now, Shenon Felius was clearly well-dressed at Bill and Fleur's wedding.

"What, what, who are you, what do you want?" he yelled angrily, looking first at Hermione, then at Van Lin, and finally his gaze resting on Harry, and suddenly his mouth opened to form a standard, comical o.

"Uh...... Hello, Mr. Lovegood," Van Lin held out his hand, "I am Van Lin, Van Lin El......"

Shenon Felius didn't shake Van Lin's hand, which made Van Lin feel a little embarrassed...... His gaze lingered on Harry's body for a long time, and it was clear that Harry was even more impressive.

His gaze was fixed on Harry's forehead, as if to confirm it.

"Smack!"

Verlin snapped his fingers, and it was like being drenched in ice water on a summer day, and Mr. Lovegood couldn't help but snort.

"Shall we go in?" asked Van Lin, "we have something to ask you." ”

"I ...... I'm not sure if that's wise," Shenon Felius whispered, swallowing his saliva and glancing quickly toward the garden. "It's amazing...... I mean...... I...... I'm afraid I shouldn't be ......."

"We won't be long," Harry said, looking a little disappointed at the not warm welcome.

"I ...... Oh well. Come in, quick, quick!"

Their arrival seemed to disrupt Lovegood's usual rhythm of life, which made him very flustered...... It should be said that it is panicked.

No sooner had they stepped through the threshold than the door slammed shut.

Now they are standing in one of the most peculiar kitchens they have ever seen. The room was a standard round shape, which made him feel like he had stepped into a giant can of pepper. Everything was curvilinear to match the walls...... Stoves, sinks, cupboards...... And everything is painted with flowers, insects and birds in bright tones.

Well...... Now, Van Lin finally understands how Luna's style came to be. In such an enclosed space, it is impossible not to be affected by it.

That being said, parents are the best teachers for their children, and Lovegood is clearly not a very good educator, open enough, eclectic, and then ...... It's crooked......

In the middle of the floor, a spiral-shaped wrought iron staircase led to the second floor, where there was a clattering and the sound of heavy objects hitting from time to time, and Harry couldn't help but wonder what Luna was up to.

"You'd better come up," said Shenon Felius, still looking a little uneasy, before turning to lead the way.

The room seems to be both a living room and an office, and as such, it is more cluttered than the kitchen, and although it is smaller and a standard round shape, this room looks a bit like the huge labyrinth of hundreds of objects from previous centuries that the Room of Requirement had become in that unforgettable experience. There are piles of books here, and there are papers everywhere.

Some creature model they'd never seen before flapped their wings and their mouths crackled and hung from the ceiling.

Luna wasn't there, though, and the sound was made by a wooden machine with magic gears, which looked like a bizarre synthesis of a workbench and a shelf, but it didn't take long for Van Lin to deduce that it was an old-fashioned printing press, and that Luna had said that the Contradiction was printed from her home......

The weird working model, the headquarters of the contrarian is her own home, it is hard to imagine, even so, the contrarian still has a certain popularity.

"I'm sorry," said Shenon Ferrius, as he strode over to the machine, pulling a tablecloth from under a large pile of books and paper, which fell to the floor with a thud, and then threw the tablecloth onto the press, somewhat muffling out the thuds.

"Uh......" The three of them stood at the door, some of them didn't know what to do, they probably didn't come at the right time?

"So...... Why are you here?" Lovegood put everything in order, and of course, only to cover it up......

Before Harry could say anything, Hermione exclaimed, a little frightened. "Mr. Lovegood...... What's that?"

Hermione pointed to a large, gray swirling horn...... It doesn't seem to be a unicorn's...... It was framed against the wall and protruded several feet out of the wall.

"That's the horn of a scimitar-horned snorer," said Chenon Felius, unconcerned.

"No, that's not!" Hermione said.

"Hermione," Harry whispered, looking a little embarrassed, "now is not the time to ......"

"But Harry, it's a poison horn! it's a Class B commodity, and it's dangerous to keep at home!"

"How do you know it's a poison horn?" asked Harry, slightly stunned, as he moved away from the thing as fast as he could, adding to the confusion in the room.

"In the book 'Amazing Creatures and How to Find Them', it says! Mr. Lovegood, you must remove it, don't you know that even the slightest touch can make it explode?"

"It's a scimitar-horned snorer," said Chenon Ferrius clearly, with a stubborn expression on his face, "it's a shy but magical creature, and its horns are ......."

"Mr. Lovegood, I recognize the groove at the bottom, it's the horn of the poisonhorn, and it's undoubtedly dangerous...... I don't know where you got it......"

"I bought it," said Shenon Felius flatly. "Two weeks ago, I bought it from a pleasing young wizard who knew I was interested in elegant and delicate beasts. It was a Christmas surprise for my favorite Luna. So," he turned to Harry, "why the hell are you here, Mr. Potter?"

"We need some help," Harry said, before Hermione could speak again.

"Ah," said Shenon Ferrius, "help, yes." His eyes were fixed on Harry's scar again, and he seemed to be frightened and hypnotized at the same time. "Yes. The question is...... Help Harry Potter ...... Very dangerous......"

"Aren't you telling people all the time that it's their primary duty to help Harry?" asked Van Lin, a little curiously, "Aren't you the ones who ran the magazine?"

Shenon Felius glanced at the hidden machine behind him, which was still crackling under the tablecloth.

"Uh...... Yes, I just expressed my opinion, but ......"

"Interesting statement, Mr. Lovegood, is that not ...... Let someone else do it, but that doesn't include ......"

Shenon Felius didn't answer, he kept himself restrained, his eyes darting between the three of them. Harry felt like he was struggling with inner pain.

"All right, Mr. Lovegood...... Let's leave that out for now. Van Lin shook his head, "Can you tell us where Luna is?" I think we need to ask Luna for her opinion, just to welcome our former partner......

Shenon Felius swallowed. He looked like he was cheering himself up. Finally he said in a trembling voice that was inaudible to the noise of the printing press, "Luna is by the stream, fishing for freshwater largemouths." She...... She'll be glad to see you. I'm going to call her and ...... It's good. I'll try to help you. ”

Then he disappeared under the spiral staircase, hearing the front door open and close. They looked at each other a few times.

"It really makes me ...... Surprise ......" Hermione said hesitantly, her eyes unable to hide her disappointment.

"Maybe he's just worried that if the Death Eaters find out I'm here, it's going to be against them. Harry said.

"After all, every one of us has a lot of money in our heads these days, isn't it? "Speaking of which, I'm still very upset that you're twice as much as me......"

"Oh, of course, that's the gap. Harry raised an eyebrow and said, "Maybe we can split it evenly, but I've got a lot less in my coffers." ”

"Oh, you two, are you going to die?" Hermione said with some irritation, it was her suggestion to come to Lovegood's house, naturally, Hermione couldn't accept the result...... "Bad old hypocrite, he told everyone to help you, and then tried to escape on his own. For God's sake, stay away from that horn. ”

"Relax...... "Vanlin," said reassuringly, "after all, it is Mr. Lovegood's right, and it is a blessing that we were not kicked out, so I took it as if I had come to visit Luna." ”

"That's all there is to it!" Harry shrugged his shoulders and walked towards the window on the other side of the room. He saw a narrow, satin-like stream winding at the foot of the mountain in the distance. They were now standing high, and he looked in the direction of the Burrow, and a bird flapped its wings and flew through the window, and then disappeared into the mountains.

Ginny was there.

They hadn't been so close since Bill and Fleur's wedding, but she wouldn't have known that he was staring in her direction at this time, missing her.

Harry told himself that he should be happy about it, that anyone who had anything to do with him would be in trouble, and Shanon Ferrius's attitude proved it. He turned from the window, his gaze drawn to a strange thing on a messy and curved smooth plank, a beautiful and serious stone statue of a witch, with one of the strangest turbans in the world on her head, and golden headphones on either side turned outward. A pair of small sparkling blue wings were glued to one belt in front of his forehead, and a carrot was tethered to the other.

"Look at this," Harry said.

"It's fascinating," Hermione said. "It's amazing how he didn't mention it at his wedding. ”

"Treasures, perhaps. "Maybe the Lovegood coat of arms should be changed to a carrot, or at least Luna will like it......"

While the three were talking, they heard the front door shut, and a moment later, Shenon Ferrius climbed into the room from the spiral staircase, his thin legs now tucked into a pair of rubber boots. He carried a tray on which were teacups and steaming teapots that were grossly disproportionate.

"Ah, you've found my lovely invention," he said, shoving the tray into Hermione's hand and standing with them on the side of the statue.

"This model, very well done, is the one I am most satisfied with, and on the head of the beautiful Rowena Ravenclaw, 'Infinite wisdom is a man's greatest treasure!'" he said, pointing to what looked like a headphone. "That's the Focus Thinking Headset...... It is possible to eliminate all sorts of distractions for the thinker, and this," he pointed to the pair of little wings, "a mental propulsion, which promotes the sublimation of the mind, and finally," he pointed to the carrot, "the driveable plum, can exercise mental endurance." ”

"Doom...... Wonderful invention...... I didn't expect you to be interested in alchemy. Van Lin said, looking at the focus thinking headset that Lovegood said, of course, the specific effect is not considered, maybe it is a closed earbud listening spell released to himself, as for the sublimation of the mind or something, Van Lin pretended not to hear it.

This is probably the habit of all alchemists, who are always confident in their products.

"To pass the time. Lovegood said, "I almost forgot that you were also an alchemist, and you learned ......."

"Nicola May ......"

"Oh, of course, that's a big deal. "I may I ask, Master Nicolame...... You know, since Master Nicolamet decided to destroy the Philosopher's Stone, countless people have lamented it......"

"For the teacher, it was just the beginning of another adventure......"

"Ha, of course, Master's idea ......" Shanon Felius smiled, looking a little stiff, and then he returned to the tray, where Hermione was on the other end of the scruffy table, trying to keep it balanced.

"Drink a little Gedi bulb juice?" said Shenon Felius. "We did it ourselves. ”

Then he began to pour out the deep purple drink, which looked like beetroot juice, and he said, "Luna is in Wahashi." She's excited when she hears you're coming. But I told her it wasn't too long, she caught enough mouthfish to make soup for all of us. Sit down and add some sugar to yourself. ”

"Now," he said, removing a crumbling pile of papers from his armchair, and sat down, his legs crossed in his rubber boots, "how can I help you, Mr. Potter?"

To his surprise, Harry was stunned for a moment, then looked at the others, and it looked like Luna had convinced Shenon Felius......

"That's right," Harry said, glancing at Hermione, who nodded in encouragement, "It's about that emblem you wore around your neck at Bill and Fleur's wedding, Mr. Lovegood." We want to know what it represents. ”

Shenon Ferrius raised an eyebrow. "Do you mean the sign of the Death Hallow?"
