Hogwarts Fantastic Beasts in the Stomach

In the early morning, the spring breeze has slowly blown away the thick winter clothes of Hogwarts, and at the same time brought everyone a sea of ​​blue flowers and green grass. Hogwarts is like a beautiful fruit cake, with... …

"It's weird, why are you getting hungrier?" Carlos poked his head out from behind the bookshelf in confusion, looking at something unknown.

"Woo?" Mane looked at him doubtfully, and even Luo Lizard stuck his head out.

That's right, after a winter, the salamander finally woke up. This salamander has grown a lot after hibernating. The hard scales on its body have grown out, and they are still wrapped around Carlos' arm. Hitting hands.

"Nothing, nothing." Carlos shook his head and said to his two friends: "We have two goals today. One is to find the hook that Luna mentioned, and the other is to find the book about Slytherin." Carlos Looking down at the Sniff and Salamander at his feet, he continued: "I am responsible for finding Owl Hook, and you are responsible for helping me find Slytherin's book."

"Woooo?"

"Hiss?"

"What does squeezing magical animals mean?" Carlos frowned: "This is to teach you to be self-reliant. What will you do if you leave me? First of all, in wizarding society, mastering knowledge means..."

Before Carlos could say a few words, Mane and Luo Lizard ran out. They would rather work than listen to Carlos's nagging anymore.

Watching them leave, Carlos shrugged, and then began to search in the book about magical plants.

It has to be said that the Hogwarts library is like a cafeteria, and Carlos found that there was too much knowledge that he didn't know.

Well, like that hallucinogenic mushroom.

Fortunately, Ron responded after a few days, and by the way, he still wanted to eat hot pot.

"Let's wait until the final exam is over." Carlos, who was busy looking for a hook, prevaricated. After all, making hot pot requires a lot of preparation.

Ahem, why do you think of food again?

Carlos scratched his head and opened a book called "Magical Plants You Don't Keep in Your Stomach" by Newt Scamander.

The title of the book is a bit interesting... Carlos nodded slightly and looked through it. The book was not too thick, and there were many pictures. Carlos looked at the vivid pictures and the labeled extinct animals, and his tears started to flow. It flowed out of his mouth unsatisfactorily.

"It tastes slightly sweet, like chocolate cake... It's extinct."

"The skin is crispy with a slight mint flavor, and the inside is soft and chewy... Extinct."

"It tastes unpleasant, bitter, chewy, will explode if heated too much, smells slightly closer to mammal excrement...endangered."

"..."

Carlos tilted his head, his face full of confusion. He could still understand the extinction of delicious things... Why could this disgusting-looking thing still be on the verge of extinction?

Carlos looked curiously at the small print below: "Used by many kinds of candies as an additive to increase the toughness of the candies."

Carlos swore he would never eat candy again.

Soon, Carlos had finished reading this book. The content was very detailed and interesting. Apart from not being too satisfying, there was no record of hooks in it.

Could it be that Grandpa Newt made a mistake again?Carlos remembers that the Snorlax was not recorded in Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them.

"What happened to Grandpa Newt...that there was such a big negligence!" Carlos muttered, shook his head, and then picked up another book.

"Collection of Strange Plants"

The author has a long name: Xenophilius.

"Looks familiar?" Carlos murmured as he finished reading the book. This book recorded many more magical plants than Newt's book, including the nymph hook.

And it’s exactly what Luna said!

Carlos was so surprised that he read the entire book. There was even a shadow of the Scireno-Horned Snorlax in it. Although the author only mentioned it accidentally, Carlos was very happy.

It seems that I can write a letter to Luna and talk about it properly!

"Woooo!" Carlos was happy when his ankle was pushed by Mane. The sniffing hand was holding a book "Secrets of Slytherin", and Luo Lizard was also following it. around.

"Yes! Thank you!" Carlos nodded happily and picked up the book. The book was not too thick, but the author's name was very clear.

"Your best friend: Gilderoy Lockhart"

Carlos was a little surprised when he saw the name Carlos. Carlos liked all the books written by Mr. Lockhart, but he really didn't know that Mr. Lockhart had written this book.

Carlos opened the book curiously, and the stories inside were indeed as eye-opening as the author's.

This novel-thick book tells the story of Slytherin in his youth. After this noble pure-blood wizard became the number one potion master and alchemist in England, he began to move towards increasing the upper limit of wizards.

Then he fell in love with an elf. Well, Lockhart specifically stated that it was not a house elf, but a magical animal elf with wings. In the end, they gave birth to a child...

Ahem, Carlos blushed slightly and turned the page. The content of this page made him feel a little embarrassed.

Then it records Slytherin's various experiments, including but not limited to extracting the blood of magical animals, training magical animals, etc.

It is worth noting that Slytherin also used magical animals to cook, but Lockhart said that based on the inspection, it should not be successful.

I don’t know how he inspected it?Carlos scratched his head and continued reading.

Then, Lockhart changed the story to love again. Slytherin finally had to separate from the elf because of his pure-blood theory, and the two were separated from each other ever since.

But even before his death, Slytherin, lying on the hospital bed, still whispered the elf's name. The story was written in such a delicate and vivid way that Carlos drooled from the corners of his eyes.

"It's really well written." Carlos commented: "What do you think?"

"Woo?" Mane scratched his head.

"Hiss." Luo Lizard seemed to have just opened his eyes.

"Well, it seems you can't understand high art." Carlos shook his head and stood up. The only shortcoming of Mr. Lockhart's book was that it was not useful to him.

And why Mr. Lockhart didn't explain clearly the story of the goblin and the descendants of Slytherin.

It also didn’t explain things like experiments on magical animals.

It seemed that even he couldn't find those clues... Carlos sighed, even Mr. Lockhart couldn't find it... It should be a bit difficult for him.
