Chapter 348 Blake: Hey Hey! Let's Play Poker Tonight!
silence.
Yes, after hearing what Mr. Lovegood said. People on both sides of the dimensional gate fell into silence. Only the sound of the printing press working hard was left.
How can a father be so relieved that his daughter is playing at a male classmate's house? Strictly speaking, the age of eleven or twelve is the age of a junior high school student in China.
As for junior high school students, they don’t actually know anything about feelings. Who didn’t have a secret crush when they were young?
This will still be the case in a relatively conservative country. What's more, people abroad are more precocious because of different education.
Therefore, it is somewhat outrageous for Mr. Lovegood to encourage his daughter to stay overnight at a boy's house.
Like Mr. Worley, it is normal to treat Blake as a thief with the same mentality as guarding against thieves!
But... of course Blake won't object!
Is there such a good thing? Thank you for the gift of nature!
After a while of silence. Blake barely managed to keep her facial expressions in check. Suppressing the corners of the mouth that wanted to raise...
"Okay." He said calmly. "However, we are going to visit Mr. Scamander tomorrow. Since Luna originally wanted to go with us, why not... bring the luggage and everything over now!"
Blake's little calculations were so clear that even Dumbledore could hear them clearly at Hogwarts. Even Dobby knew Blake's little thoughts.
Nagini couldn't help but tug on Blake's sleeve. I hope this guy will restrain himself and not reveal his true nature too much.
"Of course! I'm going to get Luna's suitcase." Mr. Lovegood said happily. Dobby ran out, "Sir, let Dobby move it!"
Two minutes later. Luna held hot tea and watched in astonishment as the dimensional door in front of her slowly closed. And her suitcase is being pulled towards the guest room by the elf Baker...
What's going on? What happened? Where am I? Didn't I just come over for a visit? Why is the door closed and even the suitcase is pushed over?
On the other side, watching the dimensional door being closed. A smug smile appeared on Mr. Lovegood's face.
Luna put down the cup, "So...Blake, I'm going to trouble you again."
Blake shook his head, "It's no trouble, Baker has prepared your room. We will set off to visit Mr. Scamander tomorrow."
Luna asked curiously: "I remember you said last time that you wanted to build a zoo with Mr. Scamander. Is it completed so soon?"
Blake nodded, "They have been preparing for several months. As long as the funds are in place, the people who do the work are very powerful wizards. It is very simple to get the infrastructure during this time."
Wizards' infrastructure is much simpler than Muggles'.
"Then what can we do to help if we go there tomorrow?"
Blake said: "The infrastructure has been completed. All that's left is to make those unruly guys docile and stay in the area where they should be. This is my main task.
"No way, these magical animals were all rescued from the hands of poachers. Most of them cannot be released. For example, the poisonous leopard that can poison a whole village with just one breath... "These amazing animals are very troublesome. Otherwise, we wouldn't have thought of building a zoo."
Luna nodded, for Blake, who has the magical ability to communicate with magical animals. This task really belongs to him.
I thought that tomorrow I would see many magical animals that I had only seen in books before. Luna's mood became excited again.
"Okay..." Blake said happily: "Since there are three of us now, why not... let's play a game!"
"what game?"
Blake turned over his hand, and a brand new deck of playing cards appeared in his hand. "Let's play poker!"
In the early morning, when Luna got up from the comfortable and dry bed. The sun had already shone through the window and was shining on the foot of the bed.
No way, the card game called "Landlord" that Blake suggested last night was very interesting!
Although in the end, she lost so much that her face was covered with notes. However, it still made her feel a little lingering.
Perhaps, it wasn't just this game that kept her coming back. It's the feeling of having someone to laugh with her.
When Luna walked out of the living room. I happened to see Blake sitting at the dining table reading the newspaper. Nagini and Baker were busy in the kitchen.
"Good morning, Luna, how did you sleep last night?" Blake greeted cheerfully.
"I had a good sleep last night, thank you... Well, I want to say, your game is so fun, will there be another chance to play together in the future〃〃?"
"Of course! Although this game is simpler than Wizard Chess, it is one of Ma's favorite games.
Blake touched his chin, "I have a more fun game, but... it requires four people."
"What game?" Luna's eyes lit up and she asked curiously.
"Play majiang!"
Wizards revere tradition. Therefore, when Muggles already have televisions, computers and other things for entertainment. They were still in the radio stage.
Their entertainment was very scarce. Therefore, fighting landlords and playing mahjong is already a very rare form of entertainment.
We can predict what the witches who have been waiting for the latest version of "The Quibbler" would look like if they learned how to play mahjong...
Luna looked at Baker and said, "Then, let Baker play with us, and there will be four of us."
Blake sighed, "You asked him to play Landlord together last night. Do you think he dares to beat me?"
There is no way, Baker will never disobey his master, so he will never do such a thing as letting his master lose the game. There is someone who doesn’t want to win. “How about playing cards?”
What does it mean?
"Okay, you're right." Luna said with a little regret.
"It's not a big problem. We'll set off after breakfast. Pick up the fourth person first, and then go to Mr. Scamander's place."
When Luna's eyes lit up, four people made cones?"
An old Ford drives smoothly through the streets of London.
Ford windows are all black glass. It's hard to see clearly what the driver looks like inside.
In the back seat of the Ford, Luna and Nagini were talking to Blake who turned around in the driver's seat. While looking curiously at the steering wheel that can turn automatically without being controlled by anyone
They just saw that the car's gear lever can even automatically engage and shift gears! They clearly didn't see Blake making any operations!
"Can you still use magic to drive?" Nagini asked curiously.
"No, although I can indeed use magic to drive, at least not now. Now, it is driving itself."
Blake pointed at the dashboard. I saw two lights suddenly lighting up on the dashboard. The light flickered, as if in response to Blake's words.
Luna and Nagini felt that these two rays of light were like a pair of wise eyes.
"Are you driving yourself?" Luna and Nagini didn't quite understand what this meant.
"The fact is this car has a mind of its own. And a name of its own."
Blake introduced with interest.
"Then...what's its name?" Luna asked curiously.
Blake knocked on the steering wheel, "I installed the language module for you, so...you answer it yourself."
Blake finished speaking.
A deep, magnetic voice came to mind in the car.
"Hello Miss Lovegood, my name is Megatron and I am a Transformer."
"Megatron? What a weird name... What does Transformers mean?" Luna asked.
"Transformers, according to Blake, is the name of the series of alchemical Autobots like us that can transform."
"Autobot...you can also transform...that is to say, you can become a human?"
"It's just a human-like form." Megatron explained calmly.
For the rest of the journey, Blake couldn't get a word in.
Two girls in the car were having a lively conversation with each other.
Leave him as the car owner aside...
This feels quite... weird.
"I'm very sorry, I can't transform right now. Because I'm on a mission. Send you to your destination.
"Besides, Blake said that I cannot transform in front of others without his order."
Blake immediately felt two pairs of blazing eyes on him.
"Okay... I'll find a place where no one is around later and let him change into the form of an Autobot."
Blake spread his hands helplessly, and then chose to compromise.
However, he was also very excited.
Able to communicate with people normally.
This means that this "AI" technology, which was born out of soul magic, is already very proficient.
The car soon drove into a Muggle community.
Stopped in front of a house.
Blake quietly opened the car door and saw that no one was paying attention to him.
Then he jumped out of the driver's seat.
Luna and Nagini also got out of the car together.
Today, like Blake, they changed their wizard robes into Muggle-style clothes.
Blake raised his hand and rang the doorbell...
Hermione was lying on the carpeted floor in her room, reading a thick book boredly.
She could still hear the movement in the living room clearly from inside her room.
Her father and mother are happily discussing what clothes they should bring if they travel to Australia this season.
Hermione sighed and said softly: "It would be great to travel together...if only I could..."
"It's a pity that guy is just a piece of wood! It's so annoying, this dead piece of wood..."
"Ding dong!" The doorbell rang.
Hermione heard her father go to open the door.
She didn't take it to heart either.
Thought he was a friend of his parents or something.
She was still lying on the stall reading a book to relieve her boredom.
Father's voice came from the living room.
"Ah...Blake, you're here! Are you looking for Hermione?"
"Yes, she is at home, I will call her.
"Please come in quickly!"
In the room, Hermione straightened up suddenly, listening with her ears.
Because she thought she heard wrongly.
Why would that guy Blake come to find me?
But footsteps sounded and stopped directly at the door of her room.
Hermione heard her mother's voice.
"Hermione, come out quickly, your classmate Blake is here to find you!"
Hermione jumped to her feet and rushed to the door.
Then she ran back because she lost her slippers.
The door to the room was opened.
Hermione immediately saw her mother's meaningful smile.
"Blake is here?"
"Of course, dear."
Hermione heard a smile on her lips.
I just want to go directly to the living room.
But Mrs. Granger held her back.
"Honey, are you sure you don't need to change clothes first?"
Hermione looked at her pajamas.
He muttered "No need."
But my body has already started to run towards the closet...
In the living room, Mr. Granger is talking to Blake and the others.
"You just said that the old man you want to visit is called Newt Scamander? What does he mainly study?"
Like Mr. Weasley, Mr. Granger is very interested in the wizarding world.
Because it was a new world that he had never seen before.
"He is a very famous magical zoologist. Even the textbook for the Care of Magical Creatures class in our school was written by him.
"Oh..." Mr. Granger nodded suddenly, "Then he...must be amazing!"
"Of course in the wizarding world...he has a very great influence on the study of magical animals."
"If I have to give an example..." Blake touched his chin, "That is, Mr. Scamander is to magical zoology what Einstein is to physics.
"Ah! I see!" Mr. Granger suddenly understood.
"What are you talking about?" Hermione walked in from outside the living room.
Blake felt his eyes light up.
Hermione was wearing a white dress, with a sweet smile on her lips.
Blake noticed that she was not wearing shoes, and her white little feet were very conspicuous on the brown floor.
Blake rubbed his eyes involuntarily.
"We are talking about Mr. Scamander. Blake just said that Mr. Scamander's influence on magical zoology is about the same as Einstein's influence on physics!"
Hermione tilted her head and thought for a while, "Although this comparison is a bit inappropriate, but...it is true...he is the person who has the most in-depth research on magical zoology that I have ever seen."
Mr. Granger smiled and said: "Blake just said that he plans to invite you and then visit Mr. Scamander together. I think this is a good thing."
"If Einstein were still alive, then if someone asked me to meet Einstein, I would definitely be happy, even though I know nothing about physics.
Hermione looked at Blake in surprise: "You...you plan to invite me to go with you?"
"Of course! Are you coming?" Blake asked with a smile.
"OK!"
Hermione said happily.
When I was on the train before. She knew then that Blake was going to visit Mr. Scamander during the holidays.
Because of this, he had no plans to travel during the holidays. She thought she would be able to stay at home during this holiday (when Noah was raping her), but Blake suddenly came to the door and invited her out in person! Hermione's resentment towards Blake on the train also disappeared at this moment.
Mr. Granger also said: "I don't object, because this holiday, her mother and I are going to travel, leaving her alone at home, I was a little worried."
"But now that Hermione is with you, I feel relieved."
Blake has always had a good impression of Mr. Granger. Therefore, he still trusts Blake.
What's more, he is not blind, and he has noticed the changes in his daughter.
You see, when I went out to meet a classmate, she put on her favorite skirt. Could this be an ordinary classmate?
So, one thing is certain, that is, if he agrees, his precious daughter will blame him.
Moreover, Blake didn't just take Hermione to visit Mr. Scamander.
In Mr. Granger's opinion, this is more like a study group organized by classmates during the holidays. There's really no need to stop it.
Hermione was really anxious. I don’t even want to finish lunch at home. She followed Blake and the others out with a small package. Look at the package...it seems to have been packed a long time ago...
In fact, she had prepared this in advance because she thought she would travel with Blake.
I thought I wouldn't use it. Unexpectedly, I just used it!
"How are you going to visit that old gentleman? Do you need me to drive you?" Mr. Granger asked curiously.
"Oh, no, thank you, we have a car to pick you up." Blake waved towards not far away.
I saw a Ford car running over.
"Oh! Do you wizards all travel by car?"
"Actually, we take the train to school." Blake said with a wink.
"Ha! I forgot." Mr. Granger looked at the driver's seat of the car. But the car's glass was very dark and he couldn't see clearly the people inside.
"Hello, my name is Megatron... My name is William, and I am the driver of the Green family." A voice came from the car. .
