Chapter 721 Mr. Skillful
The lighting in Harris Manor is warm, the restaurant is bright, sumptuous meals are already placed on the table, and all kinds of sour, sweet, bitter, spicy, and salty flavors are available. The glass sways under the light, and the red wine inside exudes an alluring luster. But everyone in the restaurant did not pay attention to the food. Everyone's eyes were focused on Helena next to Allen.
After Helena calmed down, she picked up the knife and fork attentively. Daisy let out a short cry of surprise and quickly covered her mouth, for fear of affecting Helena, Owen and Morgan Le Fay. They exchanged a look of joy with each other, looking forward to their granddaughter's next move even more.
Helena forked the dishes in front of her, including bread, fried fish, chips and even the hazelnut spread that Luna had bought at St. Mungo's Hospital... Tasting each dish, Helena shook her head with each dish, and then Then she spit out the broken food that she had to chew because she couldn't produce saliva and threw it into the trash can prepared for her.
There was a look of disappointment in the restaurant, but Allen was not discouraged. He suggested: "Helena, don't be impatient, come and try dishes with stronger flavors."
Helena steadily forked a piece of haggis, or haggis pudding, a rich traditional Scottish dish. Helena picked up a forkful of prepared muttons of sheep offal and put it into her mouth. Suddenly the fork fell through her palm and fell to the ground, and the pieces of sheep offal also fell out from her chin.
"How is it? Can you taste it?" Allen asked what everyone wanted to ask, and Helena nodded hurriedly. After so many years, she once again tasted the taste of real food, and her eyes turned to the other few Dishes she hasn't tasted yet.
Morgan le Fay made the fork fly off the ground and into the kitchen sink, where a new fork flew in front of Helena.
Helena nodded gratefully to her grandmother, calmed down for a long time, picked up the fork again, and tasted one dish after another. However, during the tasting process, she accidentally relaxed and the food fell out from her chin. .
When Daisy saw this, she directly found a square box and placed it under Helena. Anyway, she couldn't secrete saliva and only ate to taste the taste. Putting a box like this, even if she was unskilled or mentally distracted. , the food that falls out can also be caught. Finally, Helena put down her knife and fork.
"I can also taste the beef and kidney pudding." Helena pointed to a dish on the table that was steamed with chopped steak and lamb kidneys as fillings. "I haven't had other dishes with lighter flavors. Find a way to taste it.”
"For ghosts, it takes rotten food with a strong smell to let them feel a little taste. And now, even though Helena's sense of taste and touch have recovered to some extent, her sensitivity is lower than that of us living people. A lot, but finally being able to taste something is always something worth celebrating. Helena, you can continue to practice concentration. Once you become proficient in it, you will no longer have forks or food falling to the ground. "Ai Allen patted Helena's hand encouragingly. The hand was cold. Allen's strength was not strong, but Helena didn't seem to feel it at all.
In the next few days, Helena practiced in the company of her family, and the restaurant became her favorite place. The Hufflepuffs and Morgan Le Fay in the picture scroll made all kinds of things for Helena so that she could taste the taste. food, and for this reason he also learned a lot of heavier foreign dishes - this actually made Allen feel that he had benefited a lot from eating.
And in the long dark night, Helena no longer wanders around. She still can't really fall asleep, but now that she has goals and motivation, she continues to practice these abilities. Allen would specially apparate into the tower every night with Helena, who could materialize, so that Helena could practice imitating the terrifying howl of a female ghost in the practice room. Although the progress was slow, this kind of practice was not It will affect family members.
After a few days of such orderly days, it happened to be the weekend. After leaving the Burrow, Hermione also went to Harris Manor to find Allen. "Alan, the service golem has been successfully developed. Come with me to see the prototype." , if possible, we can name it and prepare it for production and sale.”
Allen nodded with satisfaction: "In this way, at least the golem industry has not wasted its investment and can get a return."
After explaining to the family, Alan and Hermione apparated to the Umbrella Company, while Owen Harris rarely enjoyed the family happiness with his granddaughter. During the weekend vacation, he took his granddaughter Helena to find various places. This kind of thing allows her to experience more feelings.
When Emily, who was at home on vacation, saw this, she also struggled to follow her. She felt that as an aunt, she should also help Helena adapt to those senses of touch. For example, in her own garden, she could smell and touch the flowers first. Describe the tactile sensations of different plants to Helena, perhaps so that Helena will have a clearer understanding of these feelings.
In the Umbrella Company, Allen and Hermione, led by Ross Geller, the head of the Golem Department, stood in front of a strange-looking golem. This golem was suspended on the ground with a silver light all over its body. It had three The bulging eye-like detector can move left and right. Three arms that can be bent and telescopic are connected to the three eyes, and can be extended 360 degrees to patrol and observe the surrounding environment. Its spherical torso has three long tentacle arms. Each arm has a different shape and is also engraved with different ancient magic texts. It seems that each arm has a different function.
"It can complete a series of tasks that a personal butler can complete. From pruning branches to cooking, making coffee, and coaxing children. No matter in every aspect, this Golem is a very reliable product." Ross Geller Although his expression seemed a little excited because he saw his Quidditch idol, his unique voice when he spoke seemed to be very slow, which was in great contrast with his excited expression, "Each of these three arms corresponds to Housekeeping is different, it can be used to clean, whirlwind and restore as new.”
“We can even provide more refined customization services. According to the different needs of customers, the arm accessories of the golem can be replaced and customized. We will continue to develop and innovate on this, so that all customers can be satisfied. And those accessories, in addition to the three basic functions, can be sold separately. I believe that just selling customized accessories can bring more profits to the umbrella company." Hermione expressed her business philosophy.
Allen nodded approvingly. Hermione's concept is like selling the main game and then continuing to launch various DLCs...
"Ah, good morning, sir, miss, this is your tea, 203 degrees Fahrenheit, the best." The golem steadily delivered two cups of brewed black tea to Allen and Hermione, its British style The pronunciation is a bit mechanical, but the etiquette is still quite good.
Seeing his boss and idol drinking black tea, Ross cautiously added: "Although the voice is still a bit stiff, a lot of content has been introduced into it to make him more humane. Not only can he respond politely, but sometimes they can also They will curse in a low voice, and even imitate their optimistic personalities and tell you jokes.”
Hermione took a sip of tea and said nothing. She obviously didn't trust the sense of humor of her subordinate who always seemed to do everything slowly.
"That's good. I think Filch will like it. He needs people in his life who can talk to him, instead of talking to himself to a cat all day long." Allen agreed to Hogwart Argus Filch, the administrator of the castle, wants to give him a surprise gift. This golem can just help Filch free himself from the tedious work of cleaning the castle with his bare hands.
"Alan, you always care about these people who are discriminated against by the public. I think he will like this gift you gave." Hearing this, Hermione heard that although she also hated the school administrator, she couldn't bear it at this time. The resident walked up and hugged Allen gently, and then she reminded, "You can choose the painting color of these golems. Although the name itself can be customized by the owner, you still have to give the golem series a name. Basic name.”
"Mr. Geller, UU Reading www.uukｎshu.net I am very satisfied with this golem. You did a great job. I think this series will be called Mr. Skillful." Allen praised Rose, and then looked at the three lines of the golem. The flexible tentacle gave it a name, and then asked, "The one I gave to Filch should be painted the same color as Mrs. Norris's dark gray fur. I will paint the other one to represent Ravenclaw. It’s blue, I’ll keep this one for myself, let’s call it... C-3PO.”
"We will prepare it for you immediately, Mr. Harris." Ross Geller, who was praised by his idol, became even more excited. He added at a much faster than usual but still slower than normal speaking speed, "As soon as subsequent accessories are developed, we will send them to you."
"Remember to send a copy to the administrator of Hogwarts as well." Allen nodded to Ross again, then he held Hermione's hand with his hand and whispered in her ear apologetically, "Hermione , I'm really sorry, this golem can't be as good at hiding as house elves, so Muggles can't see them, so you can't experience it in your own home."
Hermione was a little numb by the breath that blew into her ears when Allen whispered. She waved the hand that was not held by Allen: "It's enough for me. This golem was originally designed to have no ability." The substitutes made by the wizarding family who obtained the house elves, the golem's function is still not as good as that of the house elves. After all, the golem is not a real living creature and does not have real intelligence."
