Chapter 492 Rove: Shirley, sell yourself to me
The Sisters of Tomes have been in a mess for two days.
The nuns urgently stopped their work and searched for the missing Shirley and Miss Scamander in the monastery of Nuo Da.
Shirley is alright. In the past two summers, she would leave a note and leave the monastery quietly. Everyone has long been accustomed to it, but that Miss Scamander...
They came here from Glasgow, a big city, and donated 3,000 pounds as soon as they made a move. Such a devout believer must not disappear!
Therefore, the nuns launched a carpet-like search, at least to see people alive and dead bodies.
Standing in the dean's living room, Sister Talia reported the results of today's search, and finally said:
"Dean, there is no trace of the church, kitchen, or cemetery. I suggest sending someone to search the bottom of the Clyde River."
Seeing that Dean Agatha was silent, Talia turned her head and stared at Theresia who was aside, and said sternly:
"You and Shirley are inseparable all day, did she say anything to you before she left?!"
"No, Sister Thalia." Teresia showed an innocent expression, shook her head and said:
"Shirley didn't say anything, she sleeps in a separate room, and you guys lock the door at night... Could it be that she turned into a butterfly and flew away?"
"..."
Thalia reprimanded: "Why don't you say she was taken away by God?"
"That's not sure." Teresia muttered, "Or she just dug a tunnel. She borrowed a small hammer from me before."
"Okay." Dean Agatha interrupted the quarrel between the two, and calmly said:
"Shirley should be the same as the previous two times, returning to her school."
"But what about Miss Scamander, why did she disappear?" Thalia said, "They lived in the same room that night, could it be that Miss Scamander saw something she shouldn't have seen and was given by Shirley?" Captured?"
"No, Thalia." Dean Agatha shook her head and said:
"The two of them may know each other. They both come from that school. Otherwise, why would Miss Scamander live with Shirley when there are so many rooms?"
Aunt Talia froze.
No, she didn't believe that...the beautiful and pious Miss Scamander, like Shirley, came from the school of weirdos!
Talia was about to refute, when there were footsteps at the door, Rabeti hurried in, she shouted out of breath:
"Dean Agatha, Shirley is back, she is at the door now...she..."
Hearing that Shirley came back, several people in the room were greatly surprised. Tricia even scolded her friend as a big fool. Since they all ran away, why did they come back? !
Dean Agatha was not too excited. She noticed Rabeti's expression was abnormal, and asked calmly, "What's wrong with Shirley?"
"Shirley didn't come back alone, Dean." Rabeti said with strange eyes.
"It's fine if it's not alone." Thalia shouted excitedly, "Did she bring Miss Scamander back?"
"No...not." Rabeti brewed her emotions for a while, and when everyone's appetite was aroused, she announced loudly:
"Shirley is back with a man!"
"..."
The whole room was suddenly silent, and everyone was shocked.
Especially Aunt Thalia, her expression was indescribable, as bad as hearing that the Pope liked little boys.
And Teresia's astonishment turned into surprise, and finally she laughed...it must be Shirley's Rove!
Rabeti was very satisfied with everyone's expressions. She paused for a few seconds, then added in a low voice:
"A very handsome man!"
"Thank you for your reminder, Rabeti." Dean Agatha asked, "Where are they now?"
"It's still at the gate." Sister Rabeti whispered, "I didn't open the door, so I hurried over to inform you."
Agatha nodded, got up and walked towards the door, followed by Aunt Talia.
...
...
With a creak, the iron door was opened, Rove walked into the reception room, and a Bowtruckle jumped on his shoulder, making an intimate cooing sound.
Rove touched Groot's head. Instead of walking towards the courtyard, he sat in the dark reception room, quietly waiting for Dean Agatha.
Shirley also walked in, and she whispered: "Are you sure you don't need to use compound soup to become like your sister Margaery?"
"No need." Luo Fu shook his head and said, "I'm here to pick you up today, and I won't sleep here at night, why use a false identity."
"I'm afraid you will be beaten out by the nuns in a while." Shirley said.
"As long as you don't tell them that I was Miss Scamander who lived in the convent that day, I won't be beaten." Rove laughed.
While the two were talking, there was the sound of chaotic footsteps, and three elderly nuns came quickly.
When they saw a young man sitting on a chair, while Shirley was obediently standing aside, they were all stunned.
Rabeti took a deep breath and stammered, "Dean, I didn't open the door. I don't know how they got in."
"It's okay." Agatha said without changing her face.
As the dean, she has to deal with the outside world, and she has met many men, but the man in front of her is only a fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy, so there is nothing to be afraid of.
On the other hand, Aunt Talia saw Rove for the first time, and her expression changed immediately. She instinctively wanted to leave the room, but when she saw Shirley again, she immediately walked towards her, grabbed her arm tightly, and asked :
"Where's Miss Scamander? Where did you get her..."
Rove snapped his fingers lightly, and Talia screamed in pain as if she had been scalded, and quickly withdrew her arm.
"Good day everyone, my name is Rolf Scamander... I'm Shirley's classmate and her boss. So don't touch my assistant, or I will be very angry."
"I'm going to take her out of here today. Before I leave, I think I have to tell you...Dean Agatha."
Looking at the wrinkled old nun, Rove took out another bag from the box and put it on the table. He smiled and said:
"I know that your Sisters have some financial problems. Here is seven thousand pounds. It is my donation. I hope you can tide over the difficulties, and thank you for taking care of Shirley these years."
Everyone looked at each other in disbelief, looking at the pounds on the table in disbelief.
Rove paused and continued:
"By the way, the girl who came the day before yesterday was me... sister, she left beforehand, and she asked me to convey my apology for leaving without saying goodbye."
For a moment, there was complete silence in the room, and everyone was overwhelmed by the boy's aura and words.
After a while, Dean Agatha asked softly, "Shirley, are you going to leave with him?"
The ponytailed girl nodded without hesitation and said, "Yes, mother dean."
"Well, I understand." Dean Agatha looked at Rove again, and begged, "Mr. Scamander, I hope you can take good care of Shirley. Let's go."
"I will... Dean Agatha, you are not only wise, but also tolerant." Rove smiled: "Then we will leave first."
He took Shirley's hand and walked towards the door.
Walking on the road, Shirley asked in a low voice, "Where are we going next?"
"Go to Dorset first, and go back to the old house of Scamander." Rove said, "The Quidditch World Cup is about to start, and my grandparents should have returned from the United States."
Shirley suddenly felt uneasy. He had seen Newt, but never Tina.
Luo Fu understood the girl's mood, smiled at her and said, "Don't be afraid, my grandma is very nice, but..."
He hesitated for a while, and said in a low voice: "My sister Margaret may also come. She is a bit weird and her brain is not working well. Stay away from her, and don't be led astray by her."
Shirley had heard of Margaery and wanted to meet her for a long time. She cheered herself up and said, "I will take care of Margaery."
Rove sighed, "I hope so."
The two walked forward a few more steps, and Xue Li stopped suddenly, turned around, and looked at the monastery from a distance, feeling a little dazed.
Rove stood quietly aside, staring blankly at the ponytailed girl.
"Why are you reluctant to leave?"
"Some." Shirley looked into the distance and said honestly, "I used to always want to leave here, and I didn't want to come back during the holidays, but now I feel a little bit reluctant."
"After all, this is where you grew up." Rove held Shirley's hand tightly, and said with a smile, "If you want to come back to visit later, I will accompany you back."
Shirley nodded vigorously, and then said softly: "You donated ten thousand pounds back and forth... It counts to five thousand Galleons, and I will pay you back!"
Rove is not short of money now, especially since he has a large amount of goblin silverware from a thousand years ago. He can sell any antique for tens of thousands of galleons at the bottom line, and a mere five thousand galleons is just a small amount of money.
But he still nodded and said:
"Of course you have to pay me back. I've done the math. With your current salary, as long as you give me 20 years as an assistant for free, you can almost pay it back."
Shirley didn't speak.
"Why...is it too long?"
The ponytail girl shook her head, she looked up at Rove, with tears on her face, but she smiled happily:
"I think it's too short, it's only twenty years... Did you underestimate the interest or something like that?
I think I have to be your assistant for at least thirty or forty years before I can pay off what I owe you. "
Rove turned sideways, stretched out his hand to help her gently wipe away the tears, but he couldn't wipe them clean, so he kept wiping them down, jokingly said:
"Then you might as well sell yourself to me."
The girl with the ponytail threw herself into the boy's arms, hugged him tightly, pressed against his chest, and murmured:
"Rove, I'm already yours."
