Chapter 318 Blake’S Dark Lord Behavior
Luna excitedly walked into Ravenclaw's common room from outside.
She had just returned from the school owlhouse.
Sent Blake's letter to visit his father, Mr. Lovegood.
She thought that she would soon see the harassing horsefly.
There may even be a Scirehorn soon to be seen.
My heart was filled with joy.
And just when little Luna was jumping back to the dormitory.
There were two girls sitting in the armchairs nearby who spotted Luna at a glance.
Their eyes couldn't help but find her shoes.
Wait until Luna returns to the dormitory.
One of the girls couldn't help but ask: "Didn't you hang her shoes on the ceiling of the corridor?"
"Yes! I did hang up her shoes!"
"Then how did she get the shoes back?"
"Uh... maybe the shoe fell off?"
"Then next time we hang her shoes on the Whomping Willow!"
"How to hang up?"
"Just throw it over."
"Squeak, squeak, squeak!"
Niffler Dabao was pinching his waist with one paw, pointing at Blake with the other and making fierce accusations.
Just because Blake hasn't been back to the dormitory for a long time.
Dabao moved directly to Blake's bed.
At that time, it was hiding comfortably in the warm quilt.
While eating the cheesecake on the plate, I was scratching my itch comfortably.
Then Blake didn't see what was going on under the covers.
Just like that, he sat down on it.
The cake is flat.
If only Blake hadn't reacted quickly.
Xiu Xiu was almost flat.
"Ahem...Sorry, sorry, I'll treat you to cake next time."
"I didn't see you hiding under the quilt... Could you please stop being so stingy?"
"Wait, you're eating cheesecake in there?!"
"Hiss... You won't be eating, drinking and eating in here during this time, will you?!"
Dabao's screams paused for a moment, and then began to become violent again.
"Zhizhizhi! (Am I the kind of Xiu Xiu who doesn't care about cleanliness? Good guy, you haven't come back for so long, and you come back once in a while, and you still dislike me? Tell me! Do you have other Xiu Xiu outside? )"
Faced with the chattering Sniff.
Blake didn't panic at all.
Use very slow movements to move five large coins (gold galleons) out on the bed.
Then Dabao's chattering stopped immediately.
He quickly put all five gold galleons into his pocket.
That speed... the claws were swung out of the afterimage.
"Zhizhizhi? (Why did you come back?)"
"I have to go out, but I have to make it look like I'm resting in the dormitory.
"So, I'm back."
Blake spread his hands.
Several days have passed since the day I talked with Luna in the Forbidden Forest.
Today, Mr. Lovegood finally replied.
Said Blake was always welcome to be a guest.
Therefore, Blake is going to return to the dormitory, and then use the dimensional door to leave Hogwarts in the dormitory.
no way.
I've been going out a lot lately.
Dumbledore already had an opinion.
Because every time he wants to find himself, he can't find him.
So, now I have to tell him first every time I go out.
However, Blake did not want to tell Dumbledore about her meeting with Mr. Lovegood.
Just like the base where Agatha and the others live.
Blake really wanted to tell Dumbledore the specific address.
Then I had to pretend to go back to the dormitory to rest.
"Zhizhizhi...(Then go ahead, it's so cold, isn't it comfortable to hide under the quilt...Wait a minute, help me clean the quilt first..."
After Blake helped Xiu Xiu clean the quilt with a cleaning spell.
He directly opened the dimensional door and disappeared into the dormitory.
Dabao looked at the place where Blake disappeared, yawned, and got into bed again.
Ravenclaw girls dormitory.
Luna put on a pair of slippers and walked towards the bathroom.
She was going to take a bath.
And it didn't take long for her to leave.
Two girls slipped in.
Their eyes were fixed on the shoes placed in front of Luna's bed.
They looked at each other, then walked up with a smile.
However, just when they were about to steal the shoes.
"Snapped!"
Those shoes suddenly jumped up!
One of them hit one of the girls on the head.
"Hey!"
The sudden turn of events frightened the two girls.
Moreover, these shoes are very painful when "kicked"!
The two girls opened the door and ran out as fast as they could.
Behind them, a pair of shoes was automatically kicking their heads.
Until they ran out of the common room.
This pair of shoes just started to bounce back to the dormitory.
At this moment, Luna, who had forgotten to take her things, happened to come back and happened to see this scene.
And the shoes caught Luna looking at them.
Stopped right away...
Luna happily picked up the shoes and looked at them carefully.
She was surprised to find that these shoes snored in her hands like small animals!
Luna suddenly remembered what Blake told her that day in the Forbidden Forest.
"A pair of shoes that will never be lost again!"
Luna looked at the shoes in her hands.
Then he pointed his finger at the shoe of his left foot and said:
"Then you will be called brainless from now on."
She pointed to the shoe on her right foot and said:
"You will be unhappy from now on."
First night.
Devon.
The village of Ottery St. Catchpole.
On a hillside.
Blake's figure suddenly appeared.
He looked around and then saw the village of Saint Cachipol in the distance.
The village is surrounded by some enchanted vine walls.
Only the wizard can see what's going on in the village.
Blake watched for a while and even saw the Weasley's home.
However, his destination today is not in the village.
Luna's home is on another hillside.
That hillside was much shorter than the hillside Blake was on.
This made Blake immediately aware of its existence.
After Blake determined his goal, he set off.
However, he did not use the Dimension Gate this time.
Instead, he took out his broom and flew over very low-key.
After a while, Blake flew to the hillside.
There is a very strange building standing on the hillside.
It's like a cylindrical spire.
Or rather, it looks like a spire cut off from an ancient castle.
And behind the minaret, hung a slender crescent moon.
If Blake guessed correctly.
This weird building is Luna's home.
Blake jumped off the broom.
After putting away the broom, I looked at the crescent moon.
He suddenly felt that it was quite appropriate.
The name Luna, to a certain extent, also means something useful.
Blake straightened his clothes and then walked into the yard outside.
At the gate of the courtyard, three hand-painted signs are nailed.
The first block: "The Quibbler" Editor-in-Chief: X. Lovegood.
Piece 2: Please pick out a bunch of mistletoe yourself.
Block 3: Don’t touch the airship Li.
Blake gently pushed open the squeaky door to the yard and got in.
All kinds of strange plants grow beside the winding paths.
There was a bush full of the little orange radish-shaped fruits that Luna sometimes wore as earrings.
"Cuckoo!"
There was a strange owl standing on a tree in the yard.
The owl tilted its head and looked curiously at the uninvited guest in front of it.
Blake walked up to the heavy black door of the house.
The door had an iron round nail and an eagle-shaped knocker embedded in it.
The bronze knocker on the door to the Ravenclaw common room is very similar.
Blake knocked on the door.
After a while, the door was opened.
Xenophilius Lovegood stood barefoot in the door, wearing a stained nightgown.
Her white hair, as long as cotton candy, was dirty and messy.
"Are you...the Blake Green that Luna wrote back about?"
Blake smiled and nodded.
"Nice to meet you, Mr. Lovegood, you can just call me Blake.
Blake extended his hand eagerly and shook Mr. Lovegood's.
"Oh! Come in quickly, Blake!"
"Luna has already told me in a letter about you."
"Besides, you were also featured in the Daily Prophet, weren't you?"
Blake said modestly: "That's just my luck, nothing else.
Lovegood eased Blake into the warmth.
Blake looked around the inside of the house.
The house looks the same inside as it does outside.
Also round.
And, the furniture that sits against the walls in this house.
Things like fireplaces and cabinets all fit perfectly into the arc-shaped walls.
"Please take a seat."
Lovegood sat Blake down in an armchair.
Then he hurriedly grabbed all the manuscripts scattered on the table.
Throw it on the table aside.
At this time, there were bursts of strange sounds coming from the second floor.
It was like some machine was creaking.
Blake's true eye saw right through the ceiling.
Then I saw an old and weird machine working on the second floor.
Every time it creaks, a copy of "The Quibbler" will be spit out.
Only then did Blake realize that this thing was actually a printing press.
"I heard that you are coming to discuss "The Quibbler" with me?"
Lovegood had an excited smile on his face.
Luna's reply stated that Blake liked "The Quibbler" very much.
Therefore, I hope to visit him and talk to him about "The Quibbler".
It was hard to catch a fan.
Lovegood was certainly happy.
What's more, this fan is now a very famous boy in the wizarding world.
"Yeah, that's why I'm here." Blake said with a smile.
"That's great!" Lovegood said excitedly.
"You sit here for a while, and I'll make you some tea!"
“I’m going to give you a taste of my special Gordig root tea!”
Lovegood said, and ran towards the kitchen excitedly.
Blake picked up a new edition of "The Quibbler" and flipped through it.
At the same time, he also felt a little emotional in his heart.
"The Quibbler" was actually not popular.
Lovegood actually used such an unpopular magazine.
Raise your daughter up.
It's actually not easy.
Lovegood soon returned.
He was very happy to see Blake reading "The Quibbler."
He thinks Blake really likes him
Compiled magazine!
No, it actually looks like it!
"What do you think of the new version of The Quibbler?"
"This is the latest version! Even Luna hasn't seen it yet!"
Blake saw the expectant look in Lovegood's eyes.
I couldn't bear to hit him either.
So he nodded.
"The content of this issue is also very novel!"
As soon as the words came out.
Lovegood's face immediately turned into a smile...
Blake sighed inwardly.
It is much easier to make Mr. Lovegood happy than to make Mr. Worley and Mr. Delacour happy!
After all, if Mr. Lovegood is to be happy, a simple word of praise is enough.
And those two gentlemen...
He gave each of them a chicken that could lay golden eggs.
But they still yelled at us to beat us and kill us.
It’s so tiring...
Really, what's there to be angry about?
Your daughters are all my wings!
Blake finished criticizing the two gentlemen in his mind,
Then continued to communicate with Mr. Lovegood.
々Come on! Try my special Gordig root tea first!”
Mr. Lovegood took a cup and placed it in front of Blake.
Then he took the teapot and poured out a dark purple liquid...
Blake looked at the cup of "tea" and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.
Is this tea?
Are you sure this isn't melting Bibi's multi-flavor beans and soaking them in water?
This smell doesn't smell right...
However, the way Mr. Lovegood looked at him longingly......
Blake picked up the cup and took a sip.
Then, he tasted a very complex flavor...
Sweet, sour, bitter and spicy washed over his taste buds.
But don't say it yet, even though it's weird.
However, it feels surprisingly good!
Compared to the bad appearance and smell, it's much better.
Then Blake couldn't help but raise the glass and took another sip.
Lovegood saw this scene and smiled brightly again.
Being able to take a second sip is the highest recognition of his tea!
Blake put down the cup, the strange taste in his mouth still assaulting his taste buds.
For a moment, he felt that his mind was clearer.
"Mr. Lovegood, this tea can also refresh your mind?"
"Of course!" Lovegood said: "I originally got this tea to refresh myself. You know, sometimes I stay up late writing and I feel really sleepy..."
Blake touched his nose, and an idea came to his mind.
In addition to magic potions, can I also make some drinks with strange flavors to sell?
The market for drinks is much larger than that for potions!
When the time comes, if the net is cast wide, there will definitely be no shortage of treasure chests.
However, now is not the time to think about this.
Blake began chatting with Mr. Lovegood about "The Quibbler."
Faced with Buley (Zhao Liao Zhao)'s overwhelming praise.
Mr. Lovegood felt like he was floating...
However, Blake's last words brought this feeling to an abrupt end.
"But, your magazine is so excellent, why isn't it popular?!"
Lovegood scratched his disheveled hair, frowned and said:
"That's right! Why doesn't anyone like it? Why doesn't anyone buy it?"
Blake took another sip of Gordig root tea.
Then he smiled and said: "Mr. Lovegood, do you believe me? If you believe me, I have a way to make your "The Quibbler" popular."
"Really?! That's great!"
According to the large wave of targeted flattery just now.
Mr. Lovegood has long regarded Blake as his confidant.
In addition, Blake is not a simple boy, he is a recipient of the Order of Merlin Level 2!
Since he said there is a way, of course there is a way!
Therefore, he said on the spot that he trusted Blake!
"That's good..." Blake said with a smile.
After Blake saw Lockhart being screwed to death by the Daily Prophet.
I also deeply understand the power of the media and public opinion.
So...he also wants such power.
He wants a media that is completely his own...
The Daily Prophet is good.
But this is Grindelwald's power, not his.
Blake will not put all his hopes on this media.
Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of what happens...
Although Grindelwald is now a loving father and a filial son.
But what if they fall out in the future?
Therefore, he planned to use Lockhart's calculations on this matter.
By the way, a media company of its own was established.
This move is a piece of cake, and there is no loss if it is not used.
But if it is really used, it is a trump card...
Of course Lovegood, who was full of joy, would not know that Blake, whom he thought was a big fan, was actually a fake fan through and through...
Blake also didn't notice how similar what he was doing now to Tom back then.
