Chapter 147: Today's Meal for the Worley Family
Louis recognized that it should be Tifa under the cloak.
Judging from the direction she came out, it should have come out from the direction of the underground bathroom.
He hurriedly flicked a disillusionment charm and followed, intending to see what Tifa had done.
As a result, when he reached the corner, Tifa disappeared without a trace as if he had melted into the darkness.
Louis did not give up, and looked left and right for a long time, but still did not find any clues.
In desperation, he had no choice but to return to the office, intending to analyze the current situation with Catherine.
"You mean...... Did you see TA Tifa come out of the basement bathroom? In the office, Catherine's gaze was a little solemn.
"Yes." Louis knocked on the table: "What is she going to do over there on a big night?" If it's for the toilet, I'm afraid there is no need to go to the basement, there is a private bathroom in the office of the Defence Against the Dark Arts, and just now, Justin was attacked, it is hard not to be suspicious......"
"You mean?" Catherine came interested.
"Quite possibly." After a pause, Louiston continued: "She seemed to sense that someone was following her, so she seemed to have escaped from my gaze by some kind of trick. ”
"Some kind of trick?" Catherine repeated it emphatically.
"I don't know a little trick, isn't it some kind of trick?" Louis stalled his hands.
What you say makes so much sense, I'm speechless.
"But...... In my opinion, she is indeed very suspicious. Catherine, who was sitting on the sofa, changed her comfortable position and raised her legs high.
Louis turned his gaze to her and asked curiously, "How so?" ”
"Do you remember that Luna's Daily Prophet once belittled Lockhart?"
Seeing Louis nodding, Catherine continued: "At the time, you thought it might have been done by Lockhart, but we have always ignored one point, that is, as Lockhart's sister, in fact, Tifa also has a motive to do it......"
"No, doesn't Tifa hate Lockhart?" Louis asked, frowning.
Catherine covered her mouth and smiled: "Just listen to a woman's words, if you really believe it, you are a fool......"
Louis clenched his fists and slapped his palms when he heard this, and suddenly said: "So when you once said no, in fact, what did you really mean 'yes'?" ”
"What is not going to work...... Catherine asked with a frown, and then immediately reacted, her cheeks flushed slightly and tilted her head and muttered, "Actually, if you asked for it again at that time, I would have really agreed......"
"Then ......" Louis took the opportunity to make a request, but was glared back by Catherine.
He shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly, "Well, if it's really her, then what should we do?" There is no conclusive evidence that it is the basilisk she has summoned. ”
"I have an idea." Catherine let go of her long, crossed legs and sat up straight.
"Tell me about it." Louis was looking forward to it, after all, Catherine rarely gave him advice on this.
Catherine followed Louis's example, slamming her fist with one hand on the palm of the other, and her tone was excited: "Otherwise, let's control Tifa and Lockhart first, and then slowly collect evidence...... Oh! What are you doing? ”
Louis struck Catherine on the top of her head, interrupting her magical speech.
"You've really got your muscles up to the end, little moon." Louis complained helplessly, is this woman's brain full of muscles?
"You don't want to think about it, it's easy to control them, but what about afterthought? What if they spread the word? ”
Catherine looked at Louis with a look like a fool: "Have you forgotten that there is a spell called Forgetfulness and Nothingness?" ”
“?” A question mark slowly crossed Louis's head.
But after careful consideration, I found that although this matter sounded very unreliable, I always vaguely felt that it was feasible.
It seems that there is some truth to it......
"If the master thinks that forgetting is not safe, then Remonia can devour them, rest assured, no one will find out...... Heheheha. Remonia chimed in, her tone resembling a classic villain from a TV series, and even the laughter didn't sound like a good thing.
"Alright, alright...... Let's stop this matter for now, why don't you ask Sister Solan Lian if she has any ideas when you go home. Louis hurriedly stopped the two of them from continuing to express their opinions, joking, and maybe some strange things popped up if they continued to develop.
Looking at what Catherine meant, she was serious.
Looking at Remonia's meaning, it is even more serious......
Hey, at such a young age, I was burdened with so much.
It's so tiring.
However, before going home, he chose to go to the principal's office.
Louis always felt that Dumbledore knew who was behind the scenes, and that this old man was probably trying to polish himself.
It was also the blind spot that suddenly remembered when he stood in front of the headmaster's office - since Dumbledore could protect people from the basilisk right now, there was no reason why she didn't know who the real culprit was.
Luis also asked Dumbledore directly, but he coughed and diverted the topic.
"It's quite foggy outside today, Luis, the old man is old and prone to coughing when the weather changes, I hope you don't mind......"
Louis thought to himself, you're going to have your windpipe coming out if you cough again......
"Oh, that's nothing, Professor." Louis nodded politely: "I can understand, after all, it's been sunny outside for three or four days......"
Dumbledore looked at him with a smitty look in his eyes, which obviously meant that if you didn't break me, we would still be good friends.
Louis shrugged and asked, "Then the question is, Professor, is it time for Fudge to come over and urge you to abdicate and make way for Xian?" ”
"Not in the near future, at least I have to spend a Christmas in peace, and then I will join forces with his directors to collectively remove me, the principal." Dumbledore seemed to be saying something unrelated, and he raised the sugar tea in his hand and made a toast gesture at Louis.
"Then I'll be out into the wilderness, I'm going home with Catherine for Christmas."
Before Louis left the principal's office, he took a handful of candy from the table.
The black and yellow packaging looks quite interesting, but I don't know what it tastes like.
As he walked along the road, Louis pulled out a piece of red candy and stuffed it into his mouth.
Then he spit it out again, grinning, revealing a bitter gourd face.
Damn, fooled, what kind of candy is this, this is clearly Bibi Duowei beans......
Such a spicy Bibi flavored bean is eighty percent devil pepper flavored.
No wonder Lao Deng had an unfathomable smile on his face when he saw himself holding the candy just now, it turned out that he was waiting for him here.
After a long time to relieve the spicy taste in his mouth, Louis returned to the office.
I have to admit that Floo is indeed a great invention, at least Louis thinks so, otherwise if you go home, you will have to rely on the Hogwarts Express, and your life will be wasted on the train.
The train said it was an express express, but it was actually ...... There is not much difference from the speed of the green K-shaped train in my previous life.
As soon as he came out of the fireplace, Louis was stunned by the festive atmosphere in the house - the whole living room was full of Christmas decorations, even the shelves used to hang clothes were turned into reindeer antlers, on which were thoughtfully placed several Santa hats and various Christmas-specific tassel decorations, and Louis even found several small reindeer dolls on the piano in the corner.
"I have to admit it, little moon." Louis looked at the living room and sighed: "My grandfather once said that women in this world are like birds, but I want to say that there are woodpeckers and magpies in this world, but your mother may be a wild forest grouse......"
Then he was stepped on by Catherine.
"Your mother is a grouse!" She said in a huff.
Louis was giggling with his throat, but he was caught in the cold by someone pinching his cheek from behind.
"Huh? What's going on, I seem to hear someone say bad things about me? Solan Lian's voice sounded behind him.
Louis's little face kept rubbing and changing in her hands, and he begged for mercy indistinctly, "Sister Leanne...... I was wrong......"
"I don't think you're at all aware of your mistakes." Solan Lian is also an old fritter, how can she be fooled by a little scumbag? She doesn't have a good eye, and her hands don't stop moving, of course, it's more likely that Louis's smooth and pink little face feels too good.
"I was really wrong, good sister." Louis turned his head back, endured the somewhat hideous and rugged little face that had been rubbed, and looked at Solanlian with a very sincere and pitiful gaze.
Solanlian snorted softly and let go of Louis and held him in her arms again.
"Oh, I miss you guys."
Louis struggled weakly, and shouted in a sullen voice, "Let go of me...... Let me go...... I'm going to suffocate ......"
"Mom!" Catherine said in disgust, and walked over to pull Louis away, and was held by her mother again.
Really, it's like a face-hugging worm, you have to get in when you find a chance.
Finally pulling out Catherine, who was flushed, Louis looked at Solan Lian a little embarrassed.
"How's it going? Sister Leanne? ”
"It's not good, a little conscienceless person seems to have forgotten the existence of a sister like me." Solan Lian looked at Louis with an unhappy face, and a pair of phoenix eyes squinted slightly, as if to see which piece of meat Louis was good to start with.
"Uh, it's not like you're busy with school, isn't it?" Louis hurriedly asked for help from the sidelines.
Catherine knew that her elbow couldn't be turned out at this time, and she nodded again and again: "I testify, the fawn is indeed very busy talking......"
"Busy? Hum! Solan Lian's voice was slightly cold: "Really? I see you're happy every day......" Then he tilted his head and looked Catherine up and down.
"Little Moon is very fast...... Mr. Fawn was eaten and wiped clean by you. ”
Solanlian's voice was full of teasing, which made Catherine choke with shame.
"Mom...... How can you say that! Catherine was reluctant, pulled Louis and walked to the fireplace: "Little deer, let's go, don't spend Christmas with this bad woman......"
"Let's go, let's go." Louis obediently followed Catherine's movements towards the fireplace.
Solan Lian hurriedly took out her wand and closed the fireplace, and soothed with good words: "Okay, okay, look at your little moon, mom is just joking." ”
"Hmph, you're not kidding!" Catherine has a bad eye.
"Okay, okay, it's okay if my mother is wrong, can you really bear to let me spend Christmas alone at home?" Speaking of this, Solan Lian's eyes were red, and her fingers gently put on the corners of her eyes and pretended to wipe them, looking really a little heartbroken.
"Hmph." Catherine snorted with her arms in her arms, looking very generous: "Okay, I'll forgive you this time." ”
Louis also immediately diverted the topic to the two of them: "Uh, that, what's for dinner at night?" ”
Solan Lian gave him a slight glance and picked up the bag in her left hand: "Lemon roasted spring chicken, garlic mayonnaise sour yeast toast, garlic cream shrimp, bacon roll asparagus, and some roasted vegetables...... I think it should be served with some chicken thighs, and when the weather is so cold, I also need to prepare a creamy mushroom soup. ”
"The main course, of course, is the traditional grilled lamb chops with small potatoes and caramelized carrots, and I also prepared a grilled steak to take care of Mr. Fawn...... Oh, and I have a question for you, what do you want more soufflé skin, blueberry or chocolate? ”
"Chocolate!" The two replied in unison.
"Rest quiet, my darlings." Solanlian blinked and hummed into the kitchen.
After a while, she leaned out half of her body from the kitchen.
"If you're hungry, you can have a crème brûlée, but don't eat too much, just one serving!"
Louis suddenly came to his senses, he didn't like to eat sweets in his previous life, he actually liked sweets more and more after he was reincarnated in Obiying, he looked at Catherine happily and asked, "I want a copy, what about you?" ”
"I'll go get you one, you can wait here." Catherine took off her coat and hung it on the antlers beside her: "I'll go take a shower in a moment, and then help mom cook." ”
"Okay, I'll have to wash it when you're done......" It's okay not to say, but as soon as he said it, Louis felt very awkward on his body, and he always felt that there was ash on his body that had not been cleaned.
I have to admit that Solan Liane's cooking skills are so good that there are no words to say, and Louis scoops up the crème brûlée with a spoon and eats it all before he knows it.
He walked to the kitchen, pushed open the door and probed his head and asked, "Sister Leanne, is there still a pudding?" I didn't eat enough. ”
"Don't eat any more, I'll have to eat later." Solan Lian held the rice spoon in one hand and crossed her waist with the other: "If you are full now, there will be no room for the next delicious food in your stomach for a while." ”
"Huh?" Louis was a little disappointed, the box of pudding had whetted his appetite.
"Otherwise, I'll make you a Margaret." Solanlian suggested, "How about you lie down on the couch and take a nap after drinking?" ”
"I'm not an adult, Sister Leanne......" Louis's face darkened.
"Oh, sorry, forgot." Solanlian then remembered that Louis was not old enough to drink.
