Chapter 172: House-elf

Celebrating is a tiring event.

After the celebration, people have to face the garbage all over the floor, the messy room, and drag the tired body to clean up, and the days will not recover.

Kano felt the same way.

Although the years of training have made him very physical, last night's activity still made him feel a little tired.

Maybe it's a delusion as you enter a new phase of your life?

“… Hurt. ”

Fleur twisted twice, half-opened her eyes and muttered.

"Huh? Where does it hurt? ”

Kano, who was thinking about life, was drawn back to attention by the slippery touch, and nervously picked up Fleur.

Fleur woke up completely and looked at Kano pitifully: "It's all painful." ”

"Aren't you hurting?"

Kano shook his head blankly: "Should I be in pain?" ”

"How can you not be in pain? It's so unfair! Fleur slapped Kano twice in dissatisfaction.

The two of them practiced in the spirit of science for nearly two hours on the question of whether it hurts or not, and finally stopped due to hunger.

Kleeche received Fleur's order that he would not return today, and Kano was ordered by Fleur to make breakfast.

As Kano closed the door, he heard Fleur laugh softly from the covers.

This woman is crazy.

Kano sighed in his heart, but he couldn't help but laugh.

Kano and Fleur skipped class for the first time in their lives, and Gabrielle woke up to find herself in the care of her sister and her best friend, rubbed like a big doll for a whole day.

When the two appeared in front of her, Gabrielle snorted and complained to her brother-in-law, Kano listened to Gabrielle's complaint with a weak heart, and Fleur next to her smiled, her little hands spinning on the soft flesh of his waist.

The two parted in front of the Beauxbatons carriage, and Cano saw Madame Maxim's stern gaze projected through a window.

"Kano, you're back!"

As soon as Kano returned to the common room, Hermione hurried up, followed by two boys who seemed to be relieved.

"What's wrong? What's the big deal? Kano was also taken aback.

"House-elves, there are so many house-elves at Hogwarts!" Hermione screamed, "This is forced labor!" ”

Kano sighed, and it seemed that the boy had finally discovered who was responsible for the cooking and cleaning of the castle.

Hermione thought it was evil and inhumane, so she founded the House-Elf Rights Advancement Association, determined to free all house-elves to work and get a day off.

"I'm the president, Harry is the secretary, and Ron is the treasurer." Hermione pointed at the two boys in turn, their faces with demented smiles of "what fun to play with".

"Would you like to join in?"

Kano touched his chin and felt that he should still pour some cold water on Hermione.

He snapped his fingers, and Dobby snapped in front of everyone.

He wore the same gloves as Kano on his hands and a colorful knitted outfit.

"Mr. Black, you call me?" His big eyes swept around, "Harry. You're here, Mr. Potter, and it's great to see you well! ”

"Dobby, Miss Granger wants to ask you some questions, can you answer her truthfully?" Kano motioned for him to turn to Hermione.

"Of course, Dobby is absolutely honest!"

Canor pulled the two boys to sit aside, whispered to them, and watched Hermione and Dobby talk from afar.

"Do you want to know how the house-elves came to be?"

With this sentence as the opening line, Kano began to tell the news he had received from Kreacher.

House-elves are not man-made magical creatures, but a kind of elves produced by the house itself, and their instinct is to keep the house itself tidy.

Although house-elves are also divided into men and women, they simply do not have the ability to reproduce on their own.

When the last house-elf is old and weak, the house will automatically give birth to the next house-elf.

Of course, this is also conditional, the house must be sufficiently spacious, luxurious, ancient, and most importantly inhabited by someone for a long time, unconsciously escaping magic.

"No wonder we don't have house-elves in our house." Ron touched his head, "Our house is so dilapidated. ”

"This is the house-elf kind... The source of character? Harry felt that they were indeed pitiful.

"Yes, it's not so much servility as their instinct. House-elves are naturally loyal to the people of the family who provided the magic when they gave birth to him, and they also have obsessive-compulsive disorders to tidy up the house. Kano said helplessly.

"Of course, there are some elves who can transcend their instincts to a certain extent."

The three boys look together at Dobby, who is being abused so badly by the Malfoys that he eventually develops a strong rebellious mentality.

In fact, the magical abilities of house-elves are also deeply related to their origins.

Cano had asked Kreacher why Regulus hadn't apparitioned him with him when he wanted to find the cave again, since he had been able to apparition back from the cave for the first time.

Kreacher couldn't tell, but told Kano that "going home" was different from leaving.

Combined with the original book's performance that Dobby can apparilate in the dungeon of Malfoy Manor, as if he is in a no-man's land, Carnot has a conjecture.

House-elves have a deep connection to the house, and they can "go home" no matter where they are or what magical limitations they have.

Similarly, in the house where he was conceived, he was able to appear in any corner of the house, ignoring all magical restrictions.

However, where it has nothing to do with "home", there is no difference between them and the wizard's illusion transformation ability.

Hermione was still talking to Dobby with great interest: "You can judge the Malfoys, they are no longer your masters. ”

Dobby's face was tangled: "I'm a free elf, Malfoy... A... It's very bad, it's bad..."

Dobby screamed and rushed to his chair, but Kano grabbed him and stopped him from hitting his head and bleeding.

"Calm down, Dobby."

Dobby was ashamed to argue, "I just... Not used to it yet, you need to get used to it. ”

"I understand, you're a free elf, go back and rest." Kano soothed him and put him on the ground to stand firm.

Dobby saluted the crowd and disappeared again.

After Hermione and Dobby finished talking, they couldn't help but be a little dazed when they heard Kano's news again.

"They, in fact, can't be considered independent creatures?"

"That's right, it's their instinct to cling to and serve." Kano nodded in acknowledgement, "That's why they love work and hate rest and wages, because they conflict with their instincts." ”

"Are you going to give up?"

Hermione pondered for a moment, then shook her head.

"Despite their nature, they still have their own emotions, and I can't really see them as tools like scissors and rulers."

"At least I'm going to make their lives a little bit better."

"If there are house-elves like Dobby, they can get my help as soon as possible."

"Even if it's just one."

Kano smiled and took out a small bag: "If that's what you think, then this is my initiation fee." ”

"Over to you, President."
