Chapter 1437 The Man-Eating Statue
"Miss Lovegood said she wanted to go to the square to see the statue!"
Looking at the back of Luna who ran to the window and looked out, Ron was talking to himself, his face full of helplessness.
Obviously, this incident made Ron feel very embarrassed. After all, before Hermione left, she told him to stay in the house and not to run around, and Hermione, can you not listen?
At the thought of being scolded by Hermione, he kind of wanted to hit the wall.
And besides, it's night now! If you can't help out with Hermione and the others, it's better to go to bed early, isn't it?
"Luna, why don't you...don't go?" Ron scratched his head, and tentatively said, "It's really not possible, why don't you go after dawn tomorrow?"
"Well?"
Luna, who was still looking out of the window, couldn't help but look back at him when she heard it, and then she blinked and said:
"Aren't you going? It's okay, then I'll go by myself!"
Before she finished speaking, she turned around in a more decisive action that Ron imagined, and ran towards the door of the room with a "thumb tom".
He didn't react until Luna ran out of the room, and after thinking about it, he realized that he must not let the other party run out in such a dark place by himself.
He didn't listen to Hermione's reminder that it's a trivial matter to go out, and at the worst, he will be reprimanded by Hermione and complain that he hasn't been reprimanded!
But if Hermione knew that he watched Luna go out alone, but neither stopped nor followed, that would be a big deal!
Thinking of this, Ron no longer had any worries, and quickly stood up and chased him out.
...
To be honest, since Luna first came to this town, she has already wanted to go around. Not to mention anything else, just the winding and criss-crossing roads in the town are enough to attract people.
Yes, this Spiral Town is indeed a veritable "spiral" array. None of the streets in the town are straight, they are all winding left and right.
What's even more amazing is that even the various buildings on the street are mostly irregular spirals overlapping horizontally, vertically and obliquely. It looks chaotic, but in fact there is something in the chaos. sequence.
Of course, if you really want to live here, it may be a big problem to understand the road signs at each street corner. Sometimes if you accidentally miss the job, you might follow the ramp and climb onto the roof of someone else’s house!
For Luna, such a wonderful town is like a playground that people will never get tired of playing. It is extremely interesting.
It's a pity that Luna is happy, but it's Ron who has been trying to catch up all the way. I saw him walking along the winding snake-like street, with the help of street lamps that seemed to have no rules at all, he struggled a lot to finally catch up with Luna, who was flying freely like a bird. .
"Wait...wait...wait for me!"
"what?"
Luna, who finally heard the shout from behind, stood still under a street lamp protruding horizontally from the wall, turned around and looked curiously at Ron who was jogging towards him.
"Are you here too?" She smiled and said, "You must have been unable to resist wanting to take a look at this interesting town as soon as possible, that's why you ran out? How about it, now that you see it, are you satisfied?"
"Oh! Miss Lovegood,
I"
Ron wanted to complain, but as soon as he saw Luna's happy face, he knew that it was absolutely useless to say anything. So, after all, he swallowed those helplessness quickly, and then sighed deeply.
"Yes, I'm 'very content'!"
"Oh, that would be great!"
As Luna said, she turned around suddenly, stared at the indicator poles not far away that were nailed with arrows of road signs, and sized it up for a while.
I don't know how she found the place she wanted to go from the super complicated street signs, but Ron saw that after looking at it for a while, she ran towards a fork road that didn't know where it was going.
"Hey!"
Right now, all Ron can do is to follow closely behind, to see when this helpless Lovegood "Miss" loses interest before going back.
Not long after, he suddenly discovered that he was led by Luna to the square in the center of Spiral Town.
Seeing that there were no more messy and dazzling buildings on both sides, Ron couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief. He felt that if he continued wandering on the messy road like before, he would definitely get lost.
"Wow!"
Suddenly, Luna let out a soft cry of surprise, causing Ron to look forward as well. In fact, he had already seen the silver statue standing in the center of the square as soon as he set foot on the square. Under the illumination of the street lamps, it really looks unusually eye-catching.
However, like most other people who saw the statue, Ron couldn't help staring at the hazy face again and again.
Beautiful, this mercury statue is indeed beautiful!
However, the face that should be the most beautiful can't see the appearance clearly. In the eyes of those who appreciate it, it has to be said that it is a pity.
However, Luna's focus is obviously different from that of ordinary people. Apart from her and Ron, there are several male and female wizards who are also looking at the statue here, but besides her, no one seems to be just staring at the statue. I looked at the skirt at the feet of the statue.
"Oh..." Luna stretched her neck and leaned close to the two-person-high statue, muttering thoughtfully while looking at it, "This dress is so beautiful... If I could wear it to a party , will definitely attract everyone's attention. Well, I don't know if Maca will like it..."
While talking to herself, she subconsciously stretched out her hand to caress the flowing mercury skirt, only to see that hand naturally penetrated through the middle.
"Ok?"
Luna then raised her eyebrows, and continued to poke inside as if she was a little surprised, and soon her entire arm was inserted into the slowly flowing mercury.
“Cold and comfortable”
"Hey, Luna!"
Ron, who had been thinking about the appearance of the mercury statue since just now, didn't see clearly what Luna was doing until now, and he suddenly felt that something was wrong subconsciously.
"Take out your hand! That... look, everyone else is looking at you!"
"what?"
When Luna heard this, she turned her head to look at Ron with one hand in the quicksilver. But at that moment, something that no one expected happened!
I only heard Luna whispering "Yeah". The next moment, everyone in the square, including Ron, saw that she was dragged into the quicksilver by an inexplicable force in the blink of an eye, and disappeared in full view.
"Luna!"
