I was expelled from Hogwarts?

Chapter 229 Greyscale and the Fountain of Good Luck

Come Easter, the whole school is suddenly empty... so empty that you run around naked in the common room during the day and no one knows.

Because the summer vacation was too close, most of the students would stay in Hogwarts to do their homework and review their homework during the previous Easter holidays. This was the first time that such a large-scale departure from school had happened.

However, compared with the imminent final exam, everyone obviously thinks that personal safety is more important, at least stay at home and will not be attacked.

Rove still stayed at the school, continuing to be busy.

Although it was a holiday, he was still very busy... During Christmas, he could still divert Hermione's attention by making potions, but when it came to Easter, the little girl could no longer restrain herself from reviewing to the second.

In addition to a lot of homework and homework review, Rove also had to go to the Black Lake to help the mermaid follow up for a follow-up visit.

Dumbledore was not at school, and Rove didn't want to go to the bottom of the Black Lake alone at all, so he changed the location of the follow-up visit to the lake.

On this day, Rove was walking towards the Black Lake alone with his black leather suitcase. When he reached the shore, he didn't see the big squid, so he had to look for the boat for the first-year students to cross the river.

After Rove found the boat, he boarded it in one step, and it drove forward automatically without wooden oars, and soon came to the center of the Black Lake.

Before Myrcella arrived, Rove sat cross-legged on the boat and started fishing with peace of mind... A top fisherman can do it anytime and anywhere.

After a while, a vague young girl's face gradually emerged on the water.

Myrcella protruded from the lake, her upper body exposed to the water, her blonde hair cascading down like a waterfall, spreading around her body like a golden lotus flower.

The mermaid girl didn't have much expression on her face, but her tone was very sincere: Sorry, I'm late.

It's okay, I haven't been here for long. Luo Fu put away his fishing rod and pondered: Are you going to see a doctor in the water, or... come to the boat.

Myrcella hesitated for a moment, glanced at the young man, and said softly, Let's get on the boat.

The girl flicked her tail, and the lake suddenly rose continuously, holding her body up to be level with the hull of the boat. She swam forward and landed on the boat gracefully.

Although Myrcella was young, her body was extremely slender. She sat upright on the bow of the boat, but the fish body alone was enough to span from the bow to the stern.

Rove reached out and grabbed her fish tail, and gently stroked the golden scales. Although she had been treated more than once, Myrcella was still very sensitive. Just a slight touch made her body tremble uncontrollably.

Rove checked very quickly this time, he nodded in satisfaction and said, Healed very well, it's almost healed.

Thank you, Scamander. Myrcella stretched out her hand, with a white pearl in her palm, and she handed it over, This is the reward for healing.

Merkus has already paid. Rove waved his hand.

Merkus is Mercus, I will pay her back, this is mine... different. Myrcella insisted: If you don't accept it, I will be very troubled.

Okay, but this pearl is too big, and it's already priced at a premium.

It's okay, we have this kind of clam beads all over the place. Myrcella said calmly, For mermaids, this is not such a precious item, so feel free to accept it.

...

Such an understatement of Versailles made Rove twitch his lips, but he was not hypocritical, so he did not continue to decline, and accepted the pearl the size of a pigeon egg.

As a return gift, this is for you.

Rove thought for a while, opened his small suitcase, and took out the quill made of phoenix tail feathers from the box.

Like the mermaid's clam beads, Rove doesn't have much, but this is the only thing he has. After all, he plucked Fox's tail feathers too much.

Of course, for other people, the phoenix tail feather is still a very precious item, especially for mermaids.

Myrcella has been living underwater, and it was the first time she saw the phoenix tail feather. After she took it, she was a little surprised: Is there still temperature?

That's right, even if the phoenix's tail feathers fall off, it's still hot. Rove smiled.

When Myrcella was observing the phoenix's tail feathers, the young man also held the pearl with both fingers, and lifted it above his head. The sun reflected on it, emitting strands of light.

He raised his head, narrowed his eyes, and carefully observed the big pearl.

The boy looked at the clam pearl.

The mermaid girl looked up at him.

Myrcella quickly shifted her gaze slightly, looking at Hogwarts Castle in the distance.

Knowing that the girl was looking at the castle, Rove smiled and said, If you have time someday, I can take you in. Hogwarts is on vacation now, and there are no students anymore.

No. Myrcella shook her head and said, I'm going home.

Go home? Rove raised his eyebrows and said, Aegean Sea?

Yes, I've been out for too long. The mermaid girl said sadly, It's time to go back.

Rove still hasn't completed the system tasks. He thought about it, and said tentatively, Myrcella, I have something to ask you.

What's up?

You seem to have...a curse on you?

Myrcella was stunned, she froze in place, and said with a face full of astonishment: How do you know?

I'm a beast...cough cough, doctor. Rove looked serious.

Myrcella had never had much expression on her face, and she also lost her composure for the first time. There was a look of excitement on her face: Can you...can it be cured?

I don't have that ability yet. Rove said, But you can talk about it. Even if I can't, my grandfather is a magizoologist. He may be able to treat you.

Have you ever heard of... greyscale?

Rove shook his head.

A special curse that is only inherited from the maternal line in our family. Myrcella said seriously:

Its symptoms are gray scales that develop on the mermaid's skin, hard as stone to the touch.

Myrcella took a deep breath, she turned around suddenly, and gently took off her upper body clothes in front of the young man, revealing a curvaceous, flawless and perfect body.

The only fly in the ointment is that on the snow-white back, there is a gray scale the size of a mung bean... very eye-catching.

When the female mermaid in our family was fifteen years old, gray scales appeared on one part of the body, and then began to spread around.

Myrcella said in a low voice: The infected skin will harden and become cold, like a stone, and finally cover the whole body... and then death.

Rove stretched out his finger and touched the gray scale lightly. He frowned and said, Does it hurt?

It doesn't hurt, it can be regarded as a little mercy of this curse. Myrcella shook her head and said: Although greyscale is fatal, it is not painful.

You came to England to seek treatment, right? Rove asked suddenly.

Myrcella pulled up her robe again to cover the terrifying scales on her back. She leaned against the boat, and after a long silence, she asked:

Scamander, have you ever heard of the Fountain of Luck?

I heard. Rove stared at the curled up mermaid girl, and said in a daze:

It is recorded in The Tales of Beedle the Poet.
