v2 Chapter 1468: action (2/2)
Before, Ivan had already said everything that was said. They came here today mainly to increase their knowledge.
Even for the wizard, summoning the devil is not a magic that can be seen at will.
A group of people walked through the kitchen to the cold store behind, and the golden light of the stars emerged from the end of their wands, dispelling the darkness.
There is a variety of food on the shelves around, and the deepest part of the shelf is the blue brick wall.
Through the brick wall, the walls of the back room are covered with the heads of the house elves, there are thousands. They are all crumpled, and they look like they are dead at low temperatures. They are astonishing and horrifying at the same time. The huge and empty eyes look at the front indifferently, giving people a strong sensory stimulation.
Ai Wen heard the Ron next to him sucking a cold air, and then quickly quietly.
It is an old custom to hang the head of the house elf after death on the wall. The elves do not think that this is bad, but they are proud of it. They think this is the biggest affirmation and reward for the house elf.
A wall is separated by Hogwarts' kitchen and cold storage for food. Every day, the students eat the food from here; the other side is like a hell-like head display hall, the wall is full of house elves. Dry corpse head.
Fortunately, Hogwarts students don't know about it, or no one can eat it.
This is the ”holy land” in the minds of traditional domestic elves, but since the demon altar was discovered, the house elves are no longer sure to be close to the area.
They walked through the shackles of the house elves. Although the environment was not very suitable, Harry couldn't help but tell the conversation he had heard last night.
He has endured for a long time, and it is not easy to say it without seeing Dumbledore.
”Professor, I have something to tell you about Snape and Malfoy,” he said.
”It's Professor Snape, Harry.” Dumbledore corrected that he had been introducing them to the history of Hogwarts' house elves.
Since the school was founded, there have been family elves working here. Under Hufflepuff’s proposition and influence, Hogwarts was once the last shelter of the homeless elves who lost their hometown. The place where the elves are the most.
”Yes, Professor Snape,” said Harry. ”We last night, I, Avon, Hermione heard their conversation at Professor Slughorn's party.”
“Actually we tracked them,” added Ai Wen.
”Oh, what did they say?” Dumbledore asked softly, not too surprised.
Harry repeated it again, and Dumbledore listened indifferently. When he finished speaking, he was silent for a while, then said, ”Thank you for telling me about this, Harry, but I suggest you still don't take it to heart. The most important thing at the moment is to summon the devil, um, I think what you said is not very important.”
“Not very important?” Harry did not believe, “Professor, you really understand”
”Yes, Harry, thank God for giving me extraordinary intelligence. I understand everything you said to me.” Dumbledore said sharply. ”I think you can even believe that I understand better than you. I am very glad that you guys.” Can tell me about it, but let me assure you that you have not said anything that makes me uneasy.”
