Poor Dobby, when Ivan rescued him from the pile of books, he was knocked out and passed out.
"Dobby, Dobby!" Ivan squatted down and patted Dobby gently, found a bottle of healing potion and poured it down for him.
"Is he okay?" Elaine asked worriedly, stretching her neck behind the desk and looking at Ivan to check for Dobby.
She had buried Dobby alive with the magic book on impulse just now, and felt very guilty after she calmed down.
Now it looks a little scared, and I don't even have the mood to eat lollipops.
"It's nothing, just passed out temporarily, let him rest here for a while, and he will recover soon." Ivan tapped the bottom of the bottle with his finger, poured the last drop of potion into Dobby's mouth, and then He stood up and put away the empty bottle and said, "But you must apologize to Dobby for what you did just now, Elaine."
"I know," Elaine whispered.
"You are abusing house elves!" Hermione said sternly, "What you did just now is very dangerous, if"
"I know!" said Elaine, "I'm sorry, I was wrong, and I will apologize to Dobby."
"If you sincerely apologize and are willing to keep quiet all the time, I think Dobby will forgive you." Aiwen shook his wand as he spoke, and the books piled on the ground moved back to the bookshelf. Worried, the house elf is in good shape. Dobby will be fine, I've seen him hurt much worse than this before, he did it when he punished himself, think about it, use your head hard Go hit the wall, put your finger directly under the iron, or"
"Evan!" Hermione shouted dissatisfied.
"What I want to say is that even so, he recovered in the end." Aiwen said, "The physical resilience of house elves is much stronger than that of humans, and Dobby is also healthy, so don't worry too much, but he He ran down in a hurry, as if he had something to tell us."
"Maybe you want to ask us what we will eat later?"
"I think trout is fine."
"Well, I want to eat dragon blood pudding, or blood cake, it's better to put more sugar in it"
"It's okay to have some fish and chips, Dobby knows this dish." Ivan said, and pulled out the thick magic history book closest to him.
After tossing around for so long, he can finally read a book quietly for a while. The book he took out is about the first war between wizards and giants, goblins, and house elves. Because the time is too long, it contains a lot of mythology The story seems very illusory, but Ivan thinks there may be some clues in it.
After this incident, Elaine has been very honest, flipping through the book "The Quibbler" that Ai Wensai gave her boredly.
The underground library finally returned to silence, save for the rustling of pages turning or the tip of Hermione's quill across the parchment. Ivan originally thought that this silence would last the entire afternoon, but before ten minutes had passed, Elaine suddenly jumped up from her seat, waving the "Quieter" vigorously in her hand.
"Elaine, what's the matter with you? You just promised to keep quiet."
"It's not me, it's this magazine, you two, come and see what I found in it!" Elaine said excitedly.
"What can we find from "The Quibbler", the Horned Beast or the Harassing Gadfly?!" Hermione raised her head from the pile of books again and asked disdainfully.
"It's the Horned Beast!"
"Oh, that's a real discovery."
Before that, Luna would come over almost every other month to tell Ivan and Hermione that she and his father had made various major discoveries on the horned beast, from the footprints of the horned beast to fossils, from horns From stuffed animals to pelts, from rumors of the existence of the horned beast to sightings of the horned beast alive.
Mr. Lovegood has never given up searching for this magical creature that exists in myths and legends, and spent most of his life proving the existence of the horned beast.
At the same time, there has been a column on the "Quieter" that has been publishing articles related to the horned beast all the year round.
In the eyes of most wizards, these things are groundless and ridiculous.
Of course, most of the other articles in this magazine are also in this style. It cannot be said that "The Quibbler" has no selling points at all. In addition to the reports on fictional creatures or relics, there are many articles in this magazine that question those in power. Although most of the content is still out of thin air, I have to say The content is quite wonderful, and it is very popular among some wizards who oppose the Ministry of Magic and those in power, especially today after the return of Voldemort and the fall of the Ministry of Magic. Talking media, this has to be admirable.
"What did they find again this time? A live horned beast?"
"No, but the house elf home was mentioned in the article," Elaine said. "This discovery can atone for me."
"What?!"
"House-elf home, mentioned in the magazine!"
"The Quibbler really mentions that word? You must have read it wrong, right?" Hermione said in surprise, "I mean, it's The Quibbler. We all know what this magazine is." Shit, how could there be a house elf home mentioned in it, it's really unbelievable!"
"It's unbelievable, but it does mention the home of the house elves." Elaine said, "I confirmed it with the context taught by Ai Wenjiao. The home of the house elves mentioned in this report is likely to be the home we have been The place I was looking for."
"Good job, Elaine, I just said that there may be clues hidden in any book." Ivan asked eagerly, "What's in it?"
"The author of this article said that the horned beast was once regarded as a guardian beast by the ancient house elves. Before the house elves completely became a subordinate race of wizards, they had worshiped and sacrificed the horned beast for a long time, and this point is in the Corresponding traces and proofs can be found in the ancient ruins left by the home of the house-elves"
"Hasty reasoning, no one knows what the horned beast looks like, maybe those ancient house elves drew some other kind of magical creature, but it was more abstract, no one can guarantee that house elves have paintings Talent, or realistic style." Hermione commented disapprovingly.
"We're not looking for horned beasts, Hermione, whatever those ancient house elves drew on stones, the focus is on house elves' homes." Ai Wen put his chin in his hand and asked while thinking, "Still Is there, Elaine? What else was in the magazine?"
"Gone!"
"It doesn't say where the house-elves are home?"
"No, that's the only place a house-elf home is mentioned."
"Let me see!" Ivan hurriedly took "The Quibbler" from Elaine's hand.
To tell the truth, it never occurred to him that he would find information about the home of the house-elves in this magazine.
