Hogwarts on the Tip of the Tongue

On the shore of Loch Lomond, the town of Russ (LUSS).

Elena Kaslana's departure did not bring any changes to this calm town.

The 1990s coincided with a period of great economic recession in Britain.

Even the Scottish highlands on the fringes were inevitably hit by the Great Depression.

This period of economic downturn will continue until two years after the collapse of the Soviet Union, and European and American countries will join hands to divide up the bears' flesh and blood, and then there will gradually be a reversal-provided that everything is as usual.

At this time when all people's lives have become somewhat difficult, the adoption in a remote orphanage in a remote area is really an unusually small thing.

If it were not for the reason that life in Russ Town was so boring, even the qualifications for joining the chat content of the townspeople were not.

In fact, in addition to anxiously discussing national events, the residents of the town occasionally lamented at the very best the priest Benitez ’s “hard mouth” — every time he asked where the silver-haired girl went, Benitez They all seriously emphasized that she was not adopted, but just went to a top private boarding school.

However, when people continue to ask for the name of the school, the priest is always unable to say the name of the school, but just repeats the previous words. At this time, the air is full of cheerful breath.

This is also a small number of interesting episodes in the town these days.

However, only the children in the orphanage knew that Father Benitez did not lie, and Elena ’s head did not “throw down” the little family. She had been silently guarding everyone in an invisible place because ...

"It tastes ... this must have been made by Sister Elena!"

"How is it possible? This is the fish pie I have!"

"Father, where is Sister Elena's school? Can we visit her this weekend?"

"... Don't talk during dinner!"

Compared with the complex logic of adults, children believe in something intuitive and simple.

After Sister Elena left the orphanage, the generous “Professor Dumbledore” promised the three meals sponsorship has never been uninterrupted, but since the first few weeks, a small trace of a sudden appeared in the three meals a day The change.

Perhaps for most people, it may at most feel better.

But for this group of orphans who grew up with food cooked by Elena, the change that appears inside belongs to the familiar taste unique to Elena ’s head-this is a very wonderful I feel that it is difficult to measure with a certain dish index, but it is particularly clear.

It was from then on that all children in the orphanage fully believed in Father Benitez's statement.

Elena ’s head was not “sold” to a wealthy man ’s house, but went to a mysterious private boarding school nearby. As for the high tuition and fees, she was in the school kitchen through Elena ’s school. Work-study is waived.

After dinner, in the humble kitchen piled with bluestones by the lake.

"In this way, the Hogwarts students now grow their own vegetables and cook themselves?"

Benitez raised his eyebrows, his face surprised.

In his impression, the wizards are noble and mysterious, and even if they are just a group of wizard apprentices, it is difficult to imagine how their weak bodies (non-magical circles generally know) cultivated in the soil.

Not to mention, if it were not for the house elf science called “Berley” in front of him, he could not even believe that Elena, who had just entered the magic school, actually became the chef of the school ’s kitchen-but recalled a little Over the years, Elena ’s performance, Father Benitez quickly accepted this new setting.

In the most difficult years of the orphanage, whether it is wild grass, fish, lake shrimp, flying birds ... everything that is alive, the child can always find some strange cooking methods and turn them into a delicious meal. Dishes.

"Not exactly, Hogwarts kitchen will still take part in the cooking work."

A strain of tension appeared on the house elf Burleigh's face, and the hands holding the plate shook and explained quickly.

"And this is only a temporary change. According to the chef, what Hogwarts needs to face in the future may be the entire magic world and even the world ’s food supply. The current manpower alone is not enough-so , From students to every house-elf need to develop a certain cooking foundation in order to cope with the future world. "

Although the house-elf Burleigh answered very fluently, Benitez could see that this magical elf did not understand the meaning of this large passage, but simply repeated it.

Of course, as a clergyman who was a monk halfway through, Benitez didn't even know what Elena's child was thinking, but for him, the other layer of meaning revealed in the information was enough. Elena was not bullied in that strange magical world because of her orphan status. On the contrary, she seemed to be doing well ...

"Then I'm relieved. By the way, there is one more thing that may need to trouble Mr. Burleigh ..."

Benitez nodded with a smile, while speaking, carefully took out a small box from his arms, handed it to the house elf in front of him, opened the box, inside was a fine silver cross bracelet.

"Today is Elena's birthday. Before that child always wanted a cross bracelet like an official nun. Although she could not help her apply for a nun quota in the church, it was still possible to polish a small object by hand.

"Relax, Mr. Benitez, I will help you get it."

The house elf solemnly took the humble gift box, and at the same time took a list from his arms and placed it on the table.

"As usual, this is a list of materials that Hogwarts needs to purchase in the non-magic world next week, which includes some plant seeds from abroad, plastic wrap produced by the non-magic world, snacks, various drinks ... the corresponding The cost will still be paid from the box of Muggle currency previously placed in your bedroom. "

"Are you going to buy something new?"

Benitez frowned ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ picked up the list on the desktop and glanced roughly.

Fortunately, with the exception of a few strange plants that he has n’t even heard of by name, most of the things can be bought in cities that are not far away-it ’s just that there are indeed a lot of them. The old foreigners who borrowed borrowed cars.

Speaking of which, is the economic environment in Europe so severe today?

You know, during this time, many elderly people from Germany and Austria settled in this remote town on the edge of the Scottish highlands, which can't help but give Benitez a bad illusion as if war is about to erupt.

…………

On the other side, the Hogwarts Auditorium.

A war between wizards and ingredients has just erupted ...

Along with the smell of fish, roasted durian, and all kinds of unspeakable darkness lingering in the air, many little wizards realized for the first time that the big green fish in the school's Black Lake is not weak.
