Chapter 202 Raven Gathering
His voice was particularly loud in the lonely alley. Mike and the two middle-aged wizards who were walking in front were stunned when they heard the sound.
The difference is that the two middle-aged wizards were caught for doing bad things, while Mike was caught simply because of what the young wizard said.
Mike thought that the young wizard was also here to rob him, but unexpectedly he met a man who acted bravely.
When the two middle-aged wizards saw someone piercing their minds, they immediately pointed their wands at the young man. In their understanding, a young wizard like Mike could not have much fighting power, so they wanted to get rid of the young man who spoke first.
But Mike was faster than them.
Mike waved his wand first, and a shimmering translucent beam suddenly shot towards the two middle-aged wizards.
The beam suddenly split when it approached the two people, turning into two slightly thinner beams and hitting them, knocking them out directly.
Mike originally planned to kill them directly with the crushing curse, but considering that there were witnesses now, it would not be good to directly kill them, so he used the method of fainting instead.
At this time, only two seconds had passed since the young man shouted. The young man was a little overwhelmed by the sudden change in front of him. He did not expect that the weak-looking blond boy in front of him could be so strong. He killed two adult wizards instantly.
"He...they can't be..."
The young man pointed at the two people who fell on the ground with trembling fingers and said in a trembling voice.
"Don't worry, I used the method of fainting, these two guys just fainted."
After explaining lightly, Mike put away his wand, walked over to the two people, and started groping on them.
The young man still remained shocked and speechless, staring blankly at Mike searching for loot on the two of them.
After a moment Mike stood up with two wands and two wallets.
These two people were completely poor, and the total money they had on them was less than 10 Galleons.
Mike shook his head and put his trophies into the traceless stretching spell bag he carried with him, then turned to leave. Only then did the young man react and said hurriedly:
"Wait, you...it's not good for you to do this. Shouldn't we report it to the Ministry of Magic?"
"Since they want to rob me, there is nothing to say if they are robbed by me." Mike said in a cold tone without stopping, "As for the Ministry of Magic you mentioned, you can report it if you want, I am still in a hurry to go It’s time to eat.”
The young man still wanted to say something, but at this moment, Mike had already walked far away, so he could only stand there and look at the two middle-aged wizards who had been stripped clean, and he was at a loss.
Mike changed direction and returned to the Leaky Cauldron, and used the fireplace in the bar to teleport to Professor Flitwick's home in Godric's Hollow.
"Mike, you're finally here."
As soon as he arrived at Professor Flitwick's house, Mike heard Professor Flitwick's very rare complaint.
After using a cleaning tool on himself to remove the dust on his body when using the fireplace to teleport, Mike walked out of the fireplace and said with a smile:
"Sorry Professor, I encountered an accident on the way, so I was delayed."
"Okay, come and take a seat, Luoluo has already heated the food three times."
Mike quickly sat down on his seat and saw that the long table in front of him was already filled with all kinds of delicious dishes. Most of these dishes Mike had seen in Hogwarts. It seemed that Lolo would often meet with Hogwarts. The house elves in Gwartz's kitchen exchange cooking skills.
After working on the treasury for most of the day and not even eating lunch, Mike was already hungry. Now that I saw so many steaming delicacies, I couldn't bear it anymore. I picked up my knife and fork, picked up a roast chicken, and started to devour it.
The house elf Lolo on the side was opening his big eyes and looking at Mike expectantly.
As house elves, they don't actually need many things, and their master's praise is the best reward for their hard work. It's a pity that Professor Flitwick is often away from home and has long been tired of Lolo's cooking, so he doesn't praise Lolo too much.
Mike was different. Mike, who had been polished in the world of mortals in his previous life, was not low in emotional intelligence. After enjoying Lolo's services, he would always give a compliment, which made Lolo's affection for Mike soar.
As expected, Mike did not forget to praise Lolo while devouring his food. Since his mouth was already blocked by food, Mike could only give Lolo a thumbs up to express that it tasted good.
But just such a small gesture of thumbs up made Luo Luo so excited that her eyes were filled with tears.
Professor Flitwick on the side saw that Mike was eating happily and picked up a knife and fork to eat. Perhaps because he was infected by Mike's eating appearance, Professor Flitwick only felt that the food in front of him, which he usually tired of eating, was surprisingly delicious. It tasted so good that I couldn’t help but speed up my eating.
Half an hour later, the table of meals carefully prepared by Lolo had been devoured by Mike and Professor Flitwick, and now the two of them were resting on the soft sofa chairs, stroking their bellies.
"Mike, are you really not going to live with me this year?" Flitwick suddenly asked after a long rest, "Lolo and I both hope you can continue to live here, right Lolo."
Luoluo, who was clearing the table at the side, immediately turned around when he heard this, nodding like he was pounding garlic.
It really hopes that Mike can continue to live here so that he can hear compliments regularly.
"Forget it, Professor Flitwick, although everything is fine here, I still hope to have a house of my own." Mike paused and replied, "As you know, I am a wanderer, so I just want a house of my own, that’s my obsession.”
Professor Flitwick became a little depressed after hearing this, and just nodded without saying anything, while Lolo froze in place, tears welling up in his eyes, and he was about to cry.
Seeing that both of them were not in a good mood, Mike comforted him again: "It's okay, Professor, Luo Luo. I will come back to see you when I have time. The food made by Luo Luo is really delicious." , I really don’t know what to do without it.”
As soon as these words came out, Professor Flitwick and Lolo's moods improved significantly, and the atmosphere in the restaurant became more relaxed.
Since they had to attend a party at Raven's Nest the next morning, Mike and Professor Flitwick chatted for a while before going back to their rooms to sleep.
Early the next morning, when Mike came to the living room yawning, he found that Professor Flitwick had gotten up early and was eating breakfast.
"Mike, come and have breakfast. We're going to leave after eating."
Hearing this, Mike was not polite and sat down directly to eat breakfast.
Professor Flitwick on the side had almost eaten at the moment. When he saw Mike sitting down, he put down his knife and fork, wiped his mouth and said:
"Mike, although the main purpose of this gathering is to let the members of Raven's Nest see the legendary Ravenclaw Crown, the most important thing for you is to receive what Raven's Nest has given you. award.
In addition to the house elves you want, I will try my best to help you get other rewards, but don't have too much hope. After all, Raven's Nest is a loose organization, so it doesn't have many fixed assets. The material reward given to you this time is only a small part, the most important thing is the favor. With this thing as a foundation, your future road will be smooth sailing, and the members of Raven's Nest will try their best to help you. "
"Don't worry, I'm actually very satisfied with getting a house elf."
Mike was telling the truth. He didn't have high hopes for the reward from Raven's Nest. It would be best to have something. Without him, he wouldn't have any ideas. After all, Ravenclaw's crown was almost picked up for free. .
Professor Flitwick was relieved when he saw that what Mike said did not seem to be hypocritical. The greater his hope, the greater his disappointment. What he was most afraid of was that Mike's expectations were too high. If the reward could not satisfy Mike, It's bound to leave a little pimple in Mike's heart.
Mike quickly destroyed the breakfast in front of him, and at this time Professor Flitwick also took out the door key.
As the space in the living room was distorted, the two used the door key to teleport to the exclusive gathering house in Raven's Nest.
Mike, who had many experiences in space teleportation, did not make a fool of himself when using the door key this time and stood firmly on the ground. What appeared in front of him at this moment was a very familiar dilapidated cabin. The cabin was surrounded by lush lawns, and the small animals in the forest were playing on the lawn.
This lawn seems to have a magical power. Among the animals on it, carnivorous animals and herbivorous animals can coexist peacefully. Mike saw with his own eyes a leopard and a little doe licking each other. hair.
Mike was not too surprised by this. He had been in the wizarding world for two years and was already accustomed to such unscientific things, so he just watched for a while and then followed Professor Flitwick into the small room. Inside.
Inside the cabin is a classical and luxurious hall. The hall is very lively at the moment. Some elderly wizards are sitting on the sofa in the corner, drinking black tea and chatting with each other.
And more wizards gathered in the center of the living room. The long table that was placed in the center of the living room when Mike came last time has long since changed its position. What is staying there now is a gorgeous display stand, Ravenclaw's crown. It is lying quietly on the stage for everyone to visit.
The interior space of this hut is much larger than it appears from the outside. This is obviously blessed by the Traceless Stretching Spell. It is not known how much this hut cost.
Mike followed Flivy towards the display stand in the center of the hall, and at this time the sharp-eyed Uncle Mario had already spotted them.
"Hey! Filius! Mike! You two are finally here!"
Uncle Mario was still so enthusiastic. He came up and gave Flitwick and Mike a hug each without saying a word.
As Uncle Mario's son, Abt naturally inherited his father's fine traditions, and immediately came up to hug the two of them.
But when he hugged Mike, he whispered in Mike's ear and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "I have already taken care of the patent matter. You can find time to go to the Ancient Ministry of Magic with me later." .”
Hearing this, the smile on Mike's face became even brighter, and he also said in Abt's ear in an inaudible voice: "Then we will go there when the party is over."
After saying that, the two separated and looked at each other, saying nothing.
"Eh! How disgusting! Why did you two hug each other for so long and look at each other affectionately? Could it be some kind of passion?"
Carol's words with a strange tone came from the side, making both Mike and Abt feel embarrassed and at a loss.
Britain is also known as a corrupt country, and this unhealthy trend has also affected the wizarding world. Therefore, the vast majority of wizards do not dare to have too much physical contact with the same sex, for fear that others will misunderstand their sexual orientation.
So people like Uncle Mario and Abt who hug each other when they come up are really rare.
After quarreling with Mike and Abbot, Carol put on her good-natured look and said hello to Professor Flitwick, which made Professor Flitwick laugh out loud.
After chatting for a while, the group went to the display cabinet in the center of the hall to visit the restored crown.
Although he had already seen it before, Professor Flitwick was temporarily absent-minded when he saw the crown again. This shows that the crown is indeed very important to Professor Flitwick, a Ravenclaw admirer. important.
Mike's performance was much calmer. Regardless of the special meaning it contained, Ravenclaw's crown actually looked like a relatively gorgeous crown. For Mike, who was used to seeing all kinds of luxury accessories in his previous life. To be honest, it's really unattractive.
The arrival of Flitwick and Mike quickly attracted the attention of everyone around the booth. The news of the return of the Crown had already spread throughout the Raven's Nest, so everyone knew that Mike was the biggest contributor, so they all gathered around Come over and say hello to Flitwick and Mike, who were the great contributors to regaining the crown.
After Mike greeted everyone one by one, an old man with a white beard who looked older than Dumbledore came out.
"You must be Mike, you are such a good boy." The old man stroked Mike's hair like a kitten and said with a smile, "You and Filius come with me, I have something to reward you."
After that, he walked towards a wooden door on the left side of the hall.
Professor Flitwick hurriedly followed after hearing the sound, and Mike calmed down his inner excitement, and after saying hello to Abbot and Carol, he quickly followed.
