Chapter 150 Douglas' Reward - Snake Slough
·
Liu Yue Zhi Yuan Fei
After Douglas settled in Dobby, he returned to the ladies' room again.
As soon as he came in, he saw that Fudge had come, and Hagrid and Professor Kettleburn had gone back.
All the people who had entered the cave had come out, and there were still a few disheveled people in the middle. Almost everyone except Newt had some injuries.
Douglas said in surprise:
"So fast?"
Snape, who was applying medicine to the wound on his arm, heard Douglas' inquiry and said disdainfully:
"A snake king without wisdom..."
Newt on the side corrected:
"It cannot be said that it has no intelligence at all, the IQ of this basilisk is equivalent to that of a four-year-old child.
It's a pity that this basilisk is already very old, none of us can speak Parseltongue, otherwise we can control it to go dormant, and maybe it can live for another few decades. "
When Douglas heard this, his eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked Snape:
"professor......"
Snape grinned strangely, then grabbed a bag on his body and threw it at Douglas.
Douglas caught it and opened it, only to find that there was only a large piece of molted snake skin inside.
He looked at Snape suspiciously:
"That's it?"
Seeing this scene, Newt asked curiously:
"Douglas, can snake sloughs be made into delicious food? The cookbook you sent me doesn't seem to mention how to make snake sloughs..."
The corner of Douglas's mouth twitched. A snake that big only gave me one molt, and I don't know how many years ago it was molted.
"Professor Snape, this is wrong..."
Professor McGonagall whispered to Professor Sprout:
"Well, I thought Douglas would be in a hurry."
Professor Sprout shrugged and said helplessly:
"The meat in my mouth flew away. I'm also worried. I haven't eaten snake meat that is nearly a thousand years old..."
Snape raised his eyebrows and said with a sneer:
"Aren't you able to make delicious food with anything? How can a mere snake slough embarrass you? I still have two basilisk fangs here. Do you want to try it?"
Before Douglas could speak, Fudge on the side smiled and smoothed things over and said:
"Professor Holmes, you may have misunderstood the basilisk. The basilisk is not dead, because Professor Scamander needs a live basilisk to do some research, so he just destroyed the basilisk's fangs and eyes...
Otherwise, with the abilities of our Professor Snape and the elite Aurors, how could we be injured against a mere basilisk. "
Newt also nodded and said:
"Professor Dumbledore helped me settle the basilisk, because the cultivation of the basilisk is special and rare, so I ask everyone to capture it alive, and I want to study it in depth..."
Douglas touched his nose embarrassedly, then smiled and said to Newt:
"Professor, I don't have anything to do during the summer vacation. I don't think you will refuse my visit."
Newt said without hesitation:
"I refuse! My little things can't stand your toss..."
At this time, there was a phoenix cry, and Dumbledore grabbed Fox's feet and appeared at the entrance of the cave with a suitcase in his hand.
"Newt, this contains a basilisk..."
Fudge saw that Dumbledore had also come up, and then he greeted the Aurors and the Dangerous Animals Disposal Committee to leave together. After all, Newt had spoken, and Dumbledore had also made a promise, and these people did not insist on getting rid of the Basilisk. .
Seems to have forgotten Lucius Malfoy who came with them...
When he heard the news that the basilisk had been taken away by Newt, Tonks was somewhat disappointed.
But in the end Douglas sent her an updated cookbook, and she left happily, not remembering asking Douglas to dinner.
When Scrimgeour left at the end, he suddenly asked Douglas:
"Do you want to be an Auror?"
Douglas smiled and declined.
After the people from the Ministry of Magic left, everyone discovered a new problem, the door of the secret room could not be closed...
Snape played all the Parseltongue recordings, and didn't even close the door of the secret room.
Everyone looked at Dumbledore again, and Dumbledore patted Newt on the shoulder:
"It's almost time for the Portkey. I have to send you back quickly. If it's later, Tina (Tina Goldstein) should be worried."
(A Portkey is an enchanted item that teleports whoever touches it to a designated location. Making a Portkey may also require authorization from the Office of Portkeys under the Department of Magical Transport)
Newt's attention was all on the box at the moment, and when he suddenly heard Dumbledore mention his wife, he panicked, as if he hadn't told her that he was going to bring a giant snake back...
Before Dumbledore left, he said to everyone and Douglas:
"Oh, by the way, this matter will be handed over to Douglas.
Douglas, come to my office later, I need to tell you something. ".biqugé
Then everyone looked at Douglas again, and Snape said with a smile:
"Douglas, now you can get that Parseltongue out..."
Bloody Barrow stood behind Snape, rattling his chain, as if Douglas could do something to him if he didn't cooperate.
The other professors stood back in a tacit understanding, and then watched the play.
As for the fact that these two people are going to fight each other when they meet, everyone is no longer surprised. As long as they don't fight, they can talk about anything.
Douglas asked curiously:
"The people from the Ministry of Magic were here just now. I didn't ask too much. Professor, did you find any treasure left by Salazar Slytherin down there?"
Snape snorted coldly:
"Hmph, what does this have to do with you?"
Douglas narrowed his eyes and said tentatively:
"Since the basilisk is no longer inside, I don't think we need to deliberately cover up the entrance to this secret room.
If there is no treasure inside, I think it can be converted into a practice base in the future.
Professors of various subjects can arrange their own levels in it, so that students can learn in practice..."
Professor McGonagall frowned and said:
"The basilisk has been cleared, but we don't know if there are any other organs inside.
As for the treasure, Albus went down alone just now, since he didn't say anything, it should be that he didn't find anything.
But Douglas, your idea is really good. I think if we have time, we professors can go down alone to clear up the mechanism and the like. What do you think, Severus? "
Professor McGonagall finally looked at Professor Snape.
Snape said blankly:
"Slytherin's Chamber of Secrets is also the property of Hogwarts. If he has no objection, I certainly have no objection, but this door can't be kept open like this. What do you think, Professor Holmes?"
Douglas understood that the reason why Dumbledore went down alone to catch the basilisk in the end was that Snape and the others must have found nothing other than the basilisk, so he took a chance to let Dumbledore go down there, and said with a smile:
"That's very simple, just replace the magic here.
I don't think everyone will think that they are weaker than Salazar Slytherin, not to mention that this place should not be his magic, it is just set by his descendants..."
Bloody Baro said angrily:
"Slytherin is the greatest wizard, and no one behind him can compare to him!"
Everyone, including Snape, ignored him.
After all, the people here are all top masters in various industries, and no one will feel that they are weaker than their predecessors.
