Chapter 301 Brave New World
No matter what kind of toothbrush, and no matter what kind of brushing method, it can only remove the residue on the surface of the teeth, and cannot prevent the stubborn plaque from calcifying into calculus.
Therefore, cleaning teeth is a very necessary thing.
But asking Shirley to wash her teeth is a very impulsive and risky thing.
The tense movements of the girl with ponytails, the unfamiliar and still posture, the slightly trembling hands... It can only be said that her skills are as green as her own.
Well, Hermione is at a half-baked level, and Shirley followed her to learn, so it's no wonder that she can learn well.
"Ah Shirley!"
"What's wrong?" The girl stopped what she was doing, looked at the boy nervously, and asked softly, "Rove, did I hurt you?"
"No, it's just...you seem to have made me bleed."
"..."
Xue Li's pretty face flushed, and she said in a voice like a fly: "Otherwise, let's forget it, I may... not be very good at technology."
"It's nothing, it's just bleeding gums." Rove licked his lips and said, "Go ahead."
The girl with ponytail hummed, she was afraid of hurting Rove again, so she moved more gently.
It was obviously just cleaning her teeth, but by the time she finished her work, Xue Li's forehead was already covered with sweat, and her snow-white neck was stained with an intoxicating blush.
Shirley wiped her sweat, blushed a little, and asked worriedly, "Are your gums okay?"
After rinsing his mouth, Luo Fu comforted him: "It's okay, the bleeding has stopped... It's the first time for you, after a few more tries, the bleeding should stop."
When Hermione came back, Rove and Shirley had already cleaned the room.
After the girl entered the clinic, she stopped suddenly and stared at the boy sitting on the recliner.
"You're finally back, Granger!" Rove leaned his elbows on the chair, deliberately lowered his voice, and threatened:
"I'm Pettigrew Peter, I'm here to take revenge on you... Jie Jie!"
Hermione's eyes widened, her expression full of vigilance, but she quickly caught a glimpse of Fox lying on the box, and her tense heartstrings relaxed.
The girl rolled her eyes and said, "Rove, you can deceive people!"
"I lied to you to make you more vigilant." Rove raised his lips and said, "Long time no see, Hermione."
Hermione put her newly bought book on the table, she said curiously:
"Didn't you say you didn't come back until the end of August? Why are you coming back now? Because of Peter?"
The news of Peter Pettigrew's escape from prison has spread throughout the UK, and all the newspapers are reporting on it recently.
"Yes." Rove nodded lightly and said, "He escaped, and I was a little worried about you two, so I took the airship back from Ilvermorny School of Witchcraft and Wizardry."
"Ilvermorny's airship?" Hermione's eyes widened, obviously interested.
Rove thought for a while, then suddenly asked, "Hermione, you don't have any valuables in the common room, do you?"
"No, but Professor McGonagall bought a cat climbing frame not long ago and put it in the lounge." Hermione asked suspiciously, "What's wrong?"
"No big deal." Rove took a breath and said, "It was the airship that crashed into the Gryffindor Tower and knocked down your lounge."
"..."
Rove glanced at Hermione's new book, the one on top, called... "Brave New World".
Rove coughed, sat up straight, quickly took the book, quickly flipped through a few pages, and felt a little disappointed.
This "Brave New World" is the work of the famous British writer Huxley, together with Zamyatin's "Us" and George Orwell's "1984", it is also known as the "dystopian trilogy" in the 20th century literary world .
It is not the same as the Korean manga "Brave New World" that Rove watched in his previous life.
"Rolf, why are you covering your mouth?" Hermione asked curiously.
The teenager put down the book, leaned on the chair and explained softly: "The gums are bleeding."
Hermione became excited immediately, as if she saw Gallon.
"Bleeding gums may be inflammation caused by plaque. It is best to wash your teeth. Would you like me to help you?"
There was a strange smile on Rove's face, he glanced at Shirley, blinked, and said narrowly: "No need."
"I'm very skilled. Shirley can testify that I've been teaching her recently." Hermione said persistently:
"You asked me to practice my hands... No, it's for your treatment, and I won't charge you."
Rove rolled his eyes, you two use him as a hand training model, right?
"I've seen Shirley's skills before." Rove smiled and said, "So I don't have any expectations for you as a teacher."
"..."
Xue Li's cheeks were flushed, and she quickly changed the topic:
"Rove, have you seen Tonks? The Ministry of Magic sent her to protect us."
"I see, Tonks turned into an old lady and hid in front of the opposite supermarket." Rove said softly:
"I walked up to her, but she still refused to admit that she was Tonks... There is no old lady with big earrings on her ears, and big flower arm tattoo stickers on her arms."
"..."
No wonder Tonks has been an apprentice for two and a half years, but he hasn't been converted to a full-time Auror... It's not without reason.
The three of them chatted for a while, before closing the door and going home. This is just a clinic, Hermione's home is in another community.
But as the door was locked, the Minister for Magic, Cornelius Fudge, suddenly appeared, accompanied by two Aurors.
He had obviously been notified by Tonks, and when he learned that Rove was back, he rushed over in a hurry.
"Rove, you came back from America?"
"Yes, Mr. Minister." Rove looked at Fudge. He was wearing a pinstriped robe, his face was pale and tired.
The last time the two met, Fudge was still smiling brightly, looking like he had been having a rough time recently.
"Has Mr. Scamander returned with you?"
"No, it's just me." Rove said softly.
"Son, then you shouldn't come back alone at this time." Fudge said seriously: "You should already know, right?"
"I saw Rita Skeeter's report." Rove nodded.
"That woman Rita Skeeter..." Fudge said a little annoyed, "She has caused us too much trouble."
"Is what Skeeter reported fake news?" Rove raised his eyebrows.
"Uh... that's not true." Fudge loosened his neckline, and said with a grim expression:
"But she raised the alarm, let the word spread immediately, we would have had a chance to catch Peter, and she made everything go wrong."
Fudge blamed Rita, and he didn't know how that woman got the news, but he really wanted to kill that guy now.
"What's going on?" Rove asked curiously, "Did Peter escape from Azkaban?"
"No." Fudge glanced around, carefully choosing his words, and said slowly:
"Rove, you caught Peter, and I won't hide it from you...someone attacked Dawlish, and then used polyjuice potion to pretend to be him, and launched a sudden attack during the escort, and rescued Peter."
"Dawlish?" Rove narrowed his eyes and said, "Did the attacker get the news from him?"
"No." Fudge said with a long sigh: "That's the problem."
"Peter is a very important criminal, and only a few of us at the top know about his transfer.
The time and candidates for escorting Peter to Azkaban were also decided and notified by me and the head of the Auror office. "
"The assailant obviously knew that Dawlish was one of the escorted Aurors earlier than Dawlish, and then attacked him in advance to switch bags."
Rove frowned.
