Chapter 432: Memory and Forgetting Are Painful

Although Grindelwald's duel at House Lemay did not appear in the press, many wizarding families, especially those with close ties to Europe, were aware of it. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info "Grindelwald's Failure", this is how the incident is described. But how exactly Grindelwald failed is only speculation, not a precise process.

If the results of the reincarnation technique had been better, and if the resurrected apprentices had remained human, then even the news would not have been released. Old man Flamel also had his own considerations, and in order to prevent future troubles, he had to "inform" the other families about this to some extent. However, the old man kept his promise, and did not say a word about who Grindelwald lost and how he was defeated, and strictly ordered no one to say anything. It is possible that people who can't control the leakage of their mouths directly erase the relevant memories with the Oblivion Charm, but it is also a hundred.

Where there are secrets, there will be attempts to decipher them. Some people analyze the movements of the Lemay family, and naturally they will notice Barbara, and they will also see Zhao Mai. This "eighth grader" seems so abrupt and unconventional, which has aroused the interest of many people. However, Zhao Mai really lived a "low-key" life, and did not go anywhere else except for attending classes at Hogwarts and running a potion shop.

Out of curiosity, many "spies" bought some "empty brand potion shop" products and went back to try them, and found that the results were surprisingly good! They began to think that the reason for Barbara of the Lemay family and Zhao Mai was nothing more than the germination of adolescence and his excellent potion ability.

Grindelwald didn't say it, Zhao Mai didn't say it, and Lemay didn't say it, so that duel was still a mystery, and the only good thing was that Zhao Mai inexplicably had a lot of orders, and soon his wallet was slowly gaining weight.

Every Friday night, Barbara leaves Hogwarts and arrives at Hogsmeade's potion shop. At this time, the shop belonged to her alone. She opens the window on Saturday morning for the first rays of the weekend, then hums a song and flicks her wand to clean up. Zhao Mai usually goes to Oxford once in the morning, and then stays until noon on Saturday before coming to the potion shop. Barbara's favorite thing to do is to open the door for him to experience the joy of "doves occupying the magpie's nest".

Zhao Mai came this time, and there was an extra animal on his shoulder. A gray night owl was napping with his eyes closed, his head shrugged, and his body swaying slightly. "Barbara, help me buy some fresh meat, Grey Wind is too tired. ”

Tolkien lost his memory of the past, and forgot that he had such a bird. The night owl is a hunting bird of prey, and Gray Wind has been trained by Zhao Mai and is the best among them. With its sharp black claws, it is easy to catch barking stray dogs to death and carry them back to the nest for dinner. Tolkien could not stand the smell in the attic, and despite all his reluctance, let the gray wind go.

Gray Wind did not leave, and kept wandering outside Tolkien's house, sleeping in the open until he was discovered by Zhao Mai. Although Tolkien did not write a store sign for Zhao Mai as promised, this potion shop still has his shares. Zhao Mai would go to see his partner every week, leaving dividends and manuscript fees - watching "The Lost Tales Collection" also requires money - so he saw the gray wind. "Come with me, you can't do anything if you're so weak. Zhao Mai could understand the animal's mind, so he said to Gray Wind: "I won't be your master, but you need a place to stay, and I hope to be your landlord." ”

In this way, Zhao Mai brought the bird back and cleaned up a perch for it in the attic. He carefully groomed Grey Wind's feathers, healed the wounds he had received with the Force of Nature, and then mixed some anti-inflammatory and antiseptic herbs to make meatballs and feed them to him.

"This is Tolkien's messenger. Barbara watched Zhao Mai take care of Gray Wind, looked at his soft gaze and gentle hands, and felt that he was extremely gentle at this time, not at all like the warrior fighting on the grass. "He's not coming to class again, is he?"

"Yes, he's forgotten about magic. ”

"If you forget, you won't be miserable, but if you remember, you will. Barbara said suddenly.

"Who said this? It's bullshit!" Zhao Mai waved his hand violently, "People who have never remembered it will never let others forget it because of pain! Those who cast the Forgetting Spell are all wizards who remember the spell! Even if there is pain, it is clear that the pain is far from enough!"

"Don't be angry, I'm just talking about it. Barbara was taken aback and hurriedly waved her hand to explain.

Zhao Mai glanced at her and let out a long sigh: "I'm sorry, I'm more sensitive to things related to the Forgetting Spell, and I was a little too excited just now." ”

"I know, I know how it's like for a good friend not to remember himself. Barbara said, "I've been running around, I've left the manor, I've been to the village next door. One family thought I was a lost little girl and took me in. I stayed there for a week and was caught. After that, the whole village didn't remember me. ”

So, I pretended to be lost again, and I was taken in by them. At that time, I couldn't control myself, I just kept crying...... Crying. They thought I was sad because I couldn't find a home, but I was crying because I had found something. ”

"I left without waiting for anyone from my family to come to me. I don't want them to have their memories erased, so it's better to have the image of a stupid kid running around. Barbara said, "I don't know why a wizard invents the Forgetting Charm, so I went to my grandfather and asked." ”

"What did he say?" Zhao Mai frowned.

"He said he invented it to forget magic. Many shamans are powerless to protect their children, fearing that they will be burned at the stake as heretics, so it is safer for them to forget about magic and spells. Barbara said, "Grandpa said that this kind of history affects the image of wizards too much, so it is not reflected in the history of magic. Wizards were killed by Muggles so badly. ”

"Why should wizards who know magic be afraid of Muggles who can't?

"This ...... I don't know, I didn't think about it. Barbara tapped her chin and fell into deep thought.

"Gaga...... Coo...... "Gray Wind scratched Zhao Mai with his claws, and then flicked his wings. It looked at the meatballs on the plate, tilted its head and cooed at Zhao Mai.

"It's like it can talk, it's so interesting! ”

"I would be very grateful if you would send me a letter. Zhao Mai nodded at Gray Wind: "Of course you can go to see Tolkien at any time, and there will always be a window open for you in the attic here." ”

Gray Wind nodded, and then began to eat the meatballs on his plate. "Can you talk to animals? Can you teach me?"

"I'll try to teach you. Zhao Mai said: "The more people who can understand animals and nature, the better." ”
