Chapter 314 314. Encounter in the kitchen

Scott, who had been feeling the cold wind for a while, walked quickly back to the castle.

By this time dinner time was over.

Hungry, Scott went straight to the corridor where the Hufflepuff lounge was located on the basement level of the castle.

Under the understanding gazes of several Hufflepuff students, he reached out and scratched a pear in a fruit still life.

The pear in the painting twists like a tickled person, transforming into a metal door handle.

Scott turned the door handle, pushed the door open and walked in.

At this time, the kitchen was still brightly lit, and the house elves at Hogwarts were busy.

Some of them are using magic to direct the dirty dishes to jump into the pool one by one, some are directing brooms and rags to clean at the same time, and some are already preparing ingredients for tomorrow.

Scott pushed open the door and immediately attracted all their attention.

All the house elves stopped what they were doing, and many pairs of big round eyes stared at him for a moment. The next second, sharp sounds came one after another.

"Ah, it's the little wizard!"

"Good evening, dear sir, how can I help you?"

"Glad to help you, sir!"

Scott's eyes moved around among them, and soon he saw a familiar house elf.

It was Lulu who was once sent by Professor Flitwick to protect Jacob's family.

"Lulu." Scott called its name directly.

When he spoke, all the house elves immediately fell silent.

"Yes, Lulu is here."

Lulu quickly pushed aside other house elves and ran to Scott.

He looked up at Scott, wiped his hands on the tea towel on his body, and then asked respectfully, "Do you need anything, dear sir?"

"Give me some food." Scott walked to the long table and sat down. "I didn't have time to eat dinner."

"Okay, of course, no problem. Sir, what do you want to eat?" Lulu asked again.

"Potato patties, steak, sweet baked apple crumble, hot cocoa."

Maybe it was because it was too cold just now, so Scott ordered some high-calorie food.

After Lulu accepted Scott's menu, several house elves helped and Scott quickly had the food he wanted to eat.

Just as he was enjoying his meal, the kitchen door was pushed open again.

Scott turned around and saw Luna and Savanna walking in together.

As he was chewing food in his mouth, Scott just nodded to the two girls.

Luna ran to the house elf and said a few words, then took Savannah's hand and walked to sit next to Scott.

"Good evening, Scott."

"Didn't you have dinner?" she asked.

Scott nodded again.

"Good evening." Savannah greeted softly at this time.

Scott swallowed the food in his mouth and asked the two girls, "Who are you here for?"

"Oh, we've eaten." Luna said with a smile, "Let's get some meat."

Scott understood, "Go and feed that little Thestral?"

Luna nodded.

"Didn't Hagrid keep it full?" Scott asked.

"All I brought was snacks," Luna said. "It's so lonely and needs a lot of company."

"Well."

Scott nodded in understanding and resumed his meal.

"Oh, you..." Luna suddenly turned her head and stared at Scott carefully with her big, slightly bulging eyes.

Scott gave her a questioning look.

"I can't say..." Luna said in an erratic tone, "Maybe there is an unknown magical animal that visited your brain. Of course, it was not a molesting fly."

Scott raised his eyebrows, "Have you ever visited them? So they have left. How did you tell?"

"There are some traces." Luna still observed him carefully, "I don't know..."

She suddenly took out a pair of strange glasses from her woolen satchel and put them on her face.

"oh……"

She sighed again and took off her glasses in frustration.

"It seems that I still don't understand a lot of things." She turned to look at Savannah, "Do you know, Savannah?"

"I?"

Savannah, who had been lowering her head just now, raised her head and glanced at her in surprise, then looked at Scott.

"I...I don't know either." She said a little confused.

"But it's worth remembering!"

Luna became happy again, took out a palm-sized notebook and a colorful quill pen from her bag and started recording.

"There are indeed many magical animals in this world that have not been discovered by people. This proves that the mole fly and the curved-horned snorkel are real." She said with interest, "I discovered another one today, but it's a pity that I didn't see them. "

She wrote a few lines quickly, then looked up at Scott and asked, "Do you feel anything, Scott? I mean, what have they brought to you?"

Scott turned to look at her again and swallowed the food in his mouth helplessly.

Taking a sip of hot cocoa, he said to Luna: "This afternoon, my brain was invaded by some harassing flies, and I was a little confused at the time."

"Oh, unfortunately!" Luna lowered her head and wrote a few words, "Then what?"

"Then?" Scott smiled, "Then, a new magical animal appeared. They may be the natural enemies of the harassing flies. In short, their arrival drove away the harassing flies and made my thinking much clearer. , and finally I figured out some issues.”

While saying this, Scott noticed that Savannah looked at him with surprise several times.

"Oh! Amazing!"

Luna didn't pay much attention. Her eyes were shining and she wrote quickly.

After writing, she closed the notebook and said to Scott excitedly: "Congratulations, Scott!"

Scott gave her a questioning look.

Luna continued: "This may be a major discovery. Of course, as the first person to discover them, maybe you can give them a suitable name."

"Name?" Scott thought about it and shook his head again. "I'm not good at naming. I'd better ask you to do it for me."

Luna laughed several times immediately. "Oh, really? In this way, I have to think about it carefully."

After that, she fell into deep thought.

Scott took the opportunity to speed up his food.

However, when he finished eating, Luna still maintained a thoughtful expression.

Scott waited for a while, and she was still thinking.

Savana also sat with her, without any impatience.

After a while, Scott didn't want to wait any longer, so he said a random name to Luna, "Why not call it Brainfly?"

Luna looked up at him, then lowered her head and opened her notebook, and wrote [Brainfly] on that page.

"Very good, I like this name." She said.

Now, it was Scott who felt embarrassed and his scalp was numb after saying this name.

"Let's go." Scott stood up, "Aren't you going to the Forbidden Forest?"

"Oh, right!"

Luna quickly put away her notebook and quill.

At this time, the house elf who had prepared the raw meat long ago saw that they were about to leave, and quickly delivered the piece of raw beef.

"Do you want to go and see it?" Luna invited Scott.

"Okay." Scott was worried about the two girls going to the Forbidden Forest at night, so he decided to accompany them.
