Chapter 1094 The Sneaking Muggle
"... Please remember, the matter of the Browns... Well, it's mainly about the death of Kristen Brown, so don't let it slip in front of the children!"
After reminding Luna again, Slughorn said goodbye to her and Madam Pomfrey, then turned and left along the corridor.
And Madam Pomfrey naturally still has things to do—except for the potions used by the school hospital on weekdays, except for some provided by the Potions professor, other relatively simple healing supplies are prepared by herself.
For so many years, the reason why the school hospital's drug reserves are rarely in short supply is due to Madam Pomfrey's continuous replenishment on weekdays.
However, when Luna watched the two go away, she looked at the closed door of the ward with some hesitation.
"Of course I know that shouldn't be said, but...they seem to have overheard it themselves?"
Just as Luna muttered softly at this moment, although Slughorn had repeatedly told Madam Pomfrey and Luna just now, he said that Candice and Kevin should not know the actual situation. However, most of what he said had already been heard by the two children hiding behind the door.
Madam Pomfrey and Slughorn definitely didn't notice this, but Luna, who is now able to sense magic power, easily noticed the two people lying behind the door.
"The Browns...Kristen Brown..."
At this moment, Candice was still in astonishment, and some unspoken words jumped out of her mouth one after another.
"Kevin, 'Brown' is my cousin's family name, and 'Kristen Brown' is my brother's wife. But how... how could she die? Why?"
Candice obviously doesn't have a very practical concept of the meaning of death, but after experiencing the many crises in the sewer before, she at least understands the horror of death.
So how did Cousin Charles' wife die?
Is what the male voice outside said just now true or false? If it's fake, then it's nothing, but if what that person said is true...
"Could it be that Sister Christine was actually the one who came to rescue us with Brother Charles?"
Candice dragged Kevin to the back of the door just now, and she just wanted to know if Luna hadn't left yet—to be honest, she was still thinking about the various snacks in Luna's pocket!
but never thought,
This greedy behavior caused her and Kevin to hear a big event far beyond expectations.
Just as Candice was surprised by the news of Christine's death, Kevin on the side couldn't help being taken aback for a moment, and then asked in a low voice:
"Didn't you hear a lot about the magic world from your cousin? Do you know... what exactly is the 'Forgetting Curse' that that person said just now?"
After Kevin's words, Candice finally recovered temporarily. But for the other party's question, she could only shake her head slightly after thinking about it.
"Actually, Brother Charles didn't talk to me much. After all, since he became a wizard, we have seen less and less often."
In fact, although the "International Statute of Secrecy" does not restrict Muggle-born wizards from revealing their identities to their relatives, in principle, information about the wizarding world should be disclosed as little as possible.
Because every wizard knows that if their Muggle relatives inadvertently spread the news about the wizard, the wizard will only be punished!
But at this moment, with a soft "click", the door of the ward was suddenly pushed open from the outside. Candice and Kevin took two steps back subconsciously, and then hurriedly ran to their respective beds.
"Relax, it's me—"
Luna slipped in through the crack of the door carefully, and closed the door behind her.
"I know, you have heard what the professor said just now..." She waved at Candice who had already climbed onto the bed, with a reassuring smile on her face, "No matter what others think, But I think you all have at least the right to know the facts."
Candice breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that she was the beautiful blonde big sister from before. It's just that Luna didn't know how to answer for a while.
Anyway, she is only in her early ten years this year, and even though she already has her own opinions on many things, she still has no way to express them well.
Not to mention, although Luna didn't speak much, they always contained some deep meaning inexplicably.
On the other hand, Kevin, who was on the next bed, nodded slightly as if he had realized something after hearing it.
"Excuse me, Miss Lovegood... the 'Forgetting Curse' mentioned by the gentleman just now, does it represent the literal meaning?"
"Oh, yes—it's the magic spell to erase memories." Luna blinked, "Because according to the laws of the wizarding world, many things are not allowed to be known to Muggles...well, 'Muggles' refers to Ordinary people who don't know magic, people like you."
"'A lot of things'?" Kevin asked again immediately, "Then... what are those things?"
Luna heard the words, pointed around, shrugged and said:
"Everything you see now is part of 'many things' - this is Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, one of the places that Muggles should not know about. Except for the wizard's closest family members, other Muggles Even if Gua comes here, the memory of coming here will eventually be erased."
Having said that, she couldn't help but tilt her head, and added in a low voice:
"However, I personally don't think it's a good idea to do so."
Just as Luna was expressing her opinion, Candice couldn't help agreeing:
"I don't want to forget everything about being here! Especially you, sister—you are already my friend, how can I forget my friend!"
"Oh, 'friend'!" Luna said happily, "I like that word!"
Before she finished speaking, she suddenly moved between the beds of the two of them, and said in a low voice:
"I have an idea! If you don't want to forget this 'important' memory, I will take you to meet someone... I think he will be able to help you!"
"Who is it?" Candice asked quickly, "Is it Brother Charles?"
But Luna shook her head immediately.
"No, it's Maca—Maca Maclean, a very powerful wizard!"
...
A moment later, Luna led the two Muggle children and slipped out of the ward lightly.
When leaving the corridor of the school hospital, she also specially used the Silencer Charm to silence the footsteps of the three people, so that Madam Pomfrey, who was preparing potion materials in the office, did not notice that they left quietly.
It's just that getting out of the ward is not so difficult. It seems that it is not so easy to go all the way to the vice castle where Maca is located without being discovered.
Fortunately, at this point, except for students like her who just didn't schedule classes, most of the students and professors are teaching in the classroom.
I saw Luna and the two children bending over, carefully passing under the window next to the classroom, and walking along the way was quite thrilling.
Fortunately, after a lot of hard work by the three of them, they finally arrived outside Maca's room without any danger.
However, just when Luna reached out to knock on the door, she heard the door's latch twitch slightly, and then the door opened by itself.
Needless to say, as early as when the three of them sneaked into this corridor, Maca in the room had already noticed their arrival.
"Maca?"
Luna popped her head through the crack of the opened door, looked left and right, and after confirming that Maca was the only one in the room, she beckoned the two children behind her to get in together.
"Are you planning to come here to steal something? Why are you sneaking around like a thief?"
Maca, who was analyzing the blood sample in the test tube at the desk, asked without looking back, which made Candice and Kevin, who were following Luna's buttocks, feel a little guilty.
Of course, apart from the reason for sneaking out of the ward, the two of them were more uneasy about the layout of Maca's room.
Obviously, any place that Maca regards as a private area will be filled with a lot of books and materials due to its usual use. Not to mention, he also set aside a special place in this guest room as a potion preparation table.
Right now, the set of flask racks in front of him used to analyze the blood samples of the basilisk is emitting a large amount of cyan mist, covering the ceiling of the entire room.
In the air, there was a slightly pungent smell of separating agent.
Hearing Luna calling him, Maca put the stirring glass rod into the cleaning box next to him, and then turned around slightly.
"What's the matter?" He asked a little puzzled, "Why did you bring the two of them to me?"
However, Luna did not answer Maca's question immediately. I saw her eyes rest on Maca's arm for a while, then raised her head and said:
"Oh, actually... I want you to do them both a favor!"
Just as she was talking, Luna paused for a while, and then said specifically:
"It won't take you too long, and, besides, Candice and Camon are already my friends-I believe you and them will become friends soon!"
The Muggle boy on the side heard it, and couldn't help reminding her in a low voice:
"It's 'Kevin'."
"Oh, really?" Luna said indifferently, "Yes, Maca—it's Kevin!"
But while she was talking, her eyes suddenly moved to Maca's arm, as if she was quite concerned about the things on it.
Seeing this, Maca also glanced down. The shrunken basilisk was still quietly wrapped around his arm, and its eyes were covered with a thick layer of magic mist, making it difficult to see its deadly vertical pupils.
"Never mind," he smiled, "it's just a snake."
