Harry Potter and the Secret Treasures - Vol 2 Chapter 1824
The stone wall next to the fireplace was piled with many gleaming copper pots and basins, and in the normal Hogwarts kitchen, it was full of house-elves wearing tea towels with Hogwarts crests, ready to go Stuffing pastries and food into the hands of students sneaking into the kitchen.
But here, there is only one house-elf. Sitting on a large comfortable chair, he looked at Hermione with a big smile, and when he noticed that she had finally found him, he pushed the cake on the table in front of him.
“Would you like a piece, this is my most satisfying dish, Helga liked it very much back then!” said the elf, “but you know, she has a soft spot for all desserts.”
“How much are you?!” Hermione looked at the house-elf in front of her in surprise.
He’s different from all the house-elves he’s seen before, not in appearance, but in dress… He’s wearing clothes, not like Dobby’s scrambled hodgepodge of clothes, neatly dressed, a miniature set of Wizard robes, with a wizard hat on his head.
Although his eyes were terrifyingly large, and his long ears drooped to both sides, his expression was not of the grovelling and submissive that are common among house elves. Instead, he was calm and full of self-confidence.
“Oh, you already know my name!” Duoduo looked at Hermione with a smile. “If I had to guess, it must have been Ivan Mason who told you that he also likes my cooking very much.”
“Yes, I’m Ai Wen’s classmate!” Hermione nodded.
“I saw it just now, in your dream, your relationship with Ai Wen is very unusual, and he is still confessing to you.” Duoduo gave a bad smile, picked up a piece of cake and leaned back on the chair. On the back, “I am very familiar with Ai Wen, and we have met many times. Wait a minute, I remembered, at some point in a long time, we also met.”
“What did you say? We’ve never met before!” said Hermione in surprise.
“I’m talking about you in the future and me in the past, you don’t know it’s normal now.” Noticing Hermione’s expression, Dobby explained, “Time travelers are always like this, Evan goes back to the past repeatedly, Seeking the help of the four founders, who has a lot of contact with Helga, will naturally see me at different points in time. Once, he took you and your children.”
Hermione looked at the elf in astonishment, thinking that this guy was absolutely insane.
child? Or her and Ai Wen’s, does he know what he’s talking about? !
“Don’t be surprised, we are all used to it, Aiwen is not bad, you should really look at Ravenclaw’s timeline, it’s messy, Helga is always worried that she will get lost in time.”
The elf said a lot, paused for a moment, and pointed to his head.
“People who are not good here can’t handle this. You have to remember where you are at this time, be careful not to bump into it, and disguise yourself in front of other people, so that there may be several of you at this time to avoid being discovered. , if it’s only once or twice, it’s fine, but if you go through hundreds or thousands of times like Ravenclaw, it’s painful to remember. Time is a very dangerous magic, and the brain is not good. The messenger must not dabble, because it is easy to cause irreversible consequences. You should really remember this, and remind your son in the future, don’t go back to the past so frequently, changing the time is a very dangerous behavior… Of course, wait until You won’t remember this when you wake up, it’s the aftermath of entering the eternal dream.”
Hermione didn’t know how to answer. This little elf was crazy and always said some strange things, which was very abnormal. She didn’t know if he knew it, or if he was just talking nonsense.
“Since you know Ai Wen, then you should know the purpose of my coming here.” Hermione took a deep breath and said, “I’m here to find the key to Hufflepuff’s secret treasure.”
“I don’t have any treasure keys here!” The elf shook his head.
A lot of words made Hermione’s heart sank, and she said in disbelief, “But the devil we found at Hogwarts, he said that you brought Hufflepuff’s treasure back to the home of the elves. ,right here……”
“That guy was right, I did take away Hufflepuff’s treasure, and the recipes she treasured are with me.” Duoduo’s slender fingers tapped on the table, and a black parchment roll appeared out of thin air. , “You have tasted the dishes above.”
tasted?
Hermione reacted immediately!
At the school banquet just now, those strange dishes, such as braised round-faced fat chicken, she was thinking what was this?
Those were all dishes from Hufflepuff’s collection of cookbooks, and all the food Hermione ate in her dreams was made by the elf.
No wonder, it tastes so much better than in reality.
In this way, Duo Duo is proficient in cooking.
It’s no surprise that house-elves are known to love to cook, and Hufflepuffs have a long tradition of cooking. For those who love to cook, Hufflepuff’s collection of recipes is indeed an invaluable treasure.
But it wasn’t what they needed, Hermione didn’t like to cook, and the recipe couldn’t beat Voldemort. Should they have a cooking competition with the evil **** Voldemort?
Or use delicious food to influence him?
This is too much nonsense, even more absurd than the dream just now. What they need is the key to Hufflepuff’s secret treasure, which will give them the power to defeat the evil gods and Voldemort.
“If you need this recipe, I can give it to you, it’s no problem.” Duoduo said, picking up another piece of cake and stuffing it in his mouth, “But let me see, you don’t need to look for any treasure keys at all. , because you have acquired the treasure of the four founders.”
“I don’t understand what you’re saying…” Hermione frowned at him.
“Let me think about how to tell you, you should already know what this place we are in is.” Duoduo explained, “The home of this elf, before it, was used by an ancient warlock in order to seek immortality. An eternal dream created by alchemy and black magic.”
“I know this, I saw the relevant records in the book outside.” Hermione wondered, “The ancient warlock was called the **** of nightmares, and Hufflepuff later defeated it.”
“You haven’t really understood the horror of this place.” Duo Duo said seriously, his eyes widened like Dobby, “This is a very scary place, where the power of darkness rages. That Ancient warlocks dreamed of becoming gods. They connected with the dreams of mortals through magic here, creating dreams to influence them, so as to strengthen themselves, and even make them sleep forever, and countless people died because of this… The dream you just saw is this You must have felt the power.”
