Because he slept too late and was still a little tired, when Al woke up, it was already sunset outside. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Hermione wasn't in bed, and Al listened intently, and in the direction of the kitchen, there was a slight noise and the sizzle of a frying pan sitting on the fire to fry food.
Al left the bedroom, just in time to see Hermione walking out of the kitchen with two plates.
"Are you awake?" Hermione smiled slightly, "Well, when I was at home, I used to see my mother fry things, and although it didn't look good, it should be edible." ”
Al looked over the plate, where there were a few fried eggs and a few fried sausages, both of which were a little dark, but still smelly.
"That's all I can do, let's try it. Hermione placed them on the table and said with a smile.
Al looked at Hermione, really moved, he was also away from home, and he still needed to be taken care of by her. obviously promised Hermione's father that he would take good care of her, but he didn't expect it to be the other way around in the end.
"I'm sorry to bother you with this. Al smiled a little sheepishly.
"What does it matter, we don't have to be so outside. Hermione said with a smile.
I don't know if it's Al's delusion, but he thinks that there is something not quite right with Hermione's tone and behavior today.
Al remembered the incident of last night, he only remembered holding Hermione's hand, and then fell asleep in a trance, and he had no memory of when he finally let go.
From Hermione's expression, Al didn't see anything out of the ordinary.
But Al was sure that Hermione must not have fallen asleep at the time, but why was she so calm?
Wait, there's no poison in this food, right?
Al tasted it cautiously with apprehension, hmm...... The taste is not bad.
After eating, they cleaned up briefly and were about to leave the cave when they suddenly heard a knock on the door.
Al and Hermione were stunned at the same time, then hurriedly drew their wands and hid behind the cave door.
Who would be knocking on the door? Is it a friend of Tumnas? or a minion of the White Witch?
There were four men standing outside the door, two men and two women, not very old, and among them, Al saw Lucy standing at the front at a glance.
"Are you home, Mr. Tumnas?" Lucy called out as she knocked on the door again.
Al put his wand away, then opened the wooden door and walked out.
"Oh, it's Al, why are you here?" asked Lucy, curious.
"Hmm...... It's hard to put into words. Al stepped aside and welcomed them in, "Why are you back?
As he spoke, Al was also looking at the three people behind Lucy, who were wearing large women's heavy mink coats, none of them were adults, and their eyebrows were somewhat similar to Lucy.
"I'm Peter Pevincy, Lucy's brother, and it's a pleasure to meet you. The oldest boy held out his hand and shook Al's hand, "Lucy told me about you. ”
"I'm Susan. The girl, who was about Peter's age, looked at Al and smiled softly.
"Edmund. ”
The other boy, who looked to be about the same age as Al, said hello nonchalantly, then turned his head to look around, and when he saw Hermione, he couldn't help but look a few more times.
"Hello, I'm Al Aaron, you can call me Al. Al smiled kindly and shook hands with each of them.
"I'm Hermione. Hermione nodded as well.
"They are all my older brothers and sisters. Lucy smiled and introduced Al, then asked, "We got into trouble and broke glass, so we want to take refuge here, but what about Mr. Tumnas? Where has he been? Isn't he home?"
Al and Hermione looked at each other, both hesitating to tell them about Tumnath's capture.
But there was nothing to hide from it, so Al handed them the notice from last night.
Puzzled, Peter took the notice and unfolded it, and several other people gathered around him curiously.
When Peter and the others finished reading, several people looked at each other and frowned.
"Was Mr. Tumnas captured by the White Witch because of us?" asked Lucy.
Al nodded, "The humans referred to above are obviously referring to us. ”
"We hurt him. Lucy looked very sad, she sobbed and said, "It's all my fault, we have to save him." ”
Peter and Susan looked at each other, the two of them didn't know Tumnas, and they didn't know anything about it when they first came to the world of Narnia.
"Who is this White Witch?" do you know about her?" asked Peter.
"We know that she rules Narnia, and that she is a powerful and brutal wizard. Al said, "Even the cold winter in Narnia was caused by her spells. ”
Peter and Susan couldn't help but smack their tongues, the word wizard, they had only heard in fairy tales.
"If it's really a wizard, how can we save it? There's nothing we can do. Susan shook her head, then whispered to Peter, "Let's go back, it's too dangerous here." ”
"That's right. Edmund interjected, saying, "We don't have to save that man, he's a criminal." ”
Al looked at the boy named Edmund with some surprise, he had a good impression of the other three of the four Pevensey siblings, but this boy was the only one who gave him the feeling of being a person who didn't know right from wrong.
But everyone has their own ambitions, so it's okay, saving people is not a joke, and it is not that the more people there are, the greater the chance of success.
And most importantly, although the four Pevensey siblings came to the world of Narnia through a magical wardrobe, Al feels that they must not be related to the magical world.
The world of wizards, the struggle between magic and magic, it is better not to involve these ordinary people.
However, compared to Al's guess, Hermione was more direct.
"I want to ask, are you Muggles?" Hermione asked with a smile.
"Muggles, what's that?" asked Susan, puzzled.
"Oh, sorry, I just asked casually, and I didn't mean anything else. Hermione smiled lightly, brushing the topic over, then glanced back at Al and shook his head slightly.
Al understood what Hermione meant, since he was not a person of the system, then there were some words and things that should not be revealed to them, and it was better to avoid a little.
