Hogwarts: The Greatest Wizard

Chapter 210 208 Kitchen Observations

Everyone in the wizarding world knows that it was Hufflepuff who accepted house elves, which made this creature a servant of the wizarding family.

And all the house elves in Hogwarts are here, so naturally it will be related to Hufflepuff.

It is said that the reason why Hufflepuff's common room is next to the kitchen is also said to be there. Of course, there is also a theory that it is because Hufflepuff students like food, and it is more convenient for them to build the common room next to the kitchen. Come to the kitchen.

Many house elves discovered the three Finnies as soon as they came to the kitchen.

When the house elves saw Feeney and the others arriving, they neatly stopped what they were doing and looked at the three of them. After a moment, there was a scream from nowhere, and then the house elves started to act randomly. The group, thinking about Feeney, the three of them crowded over,

During the pushing and shouting, a young house elf who was very familiar to Finny and the three of them came to Finny's side and asked,

"Dear Master Black, Master Weasley, may I need anything?"

Feeney heard this and nodded. This is not the first time they have come here. Every time they come here, these house elves are like this, as if they have been frightened and panicked. However, in fact, , it’s just that these house elves want to serve a few people.

Before Feeney could speak, the familiar house elf used magic to create a set of tables and chairs in the corner of the kitchen, and took Feeney and the three of them to sit there.

The other house elves around them didn't need any instructions from the three of them, and immediately got busy, constantly bringing fried eggs, bacon, milk, steak, bread, fried chicken legs, fruits and other food to the three of them.

There was no need for the three Finnies to open their mouths, and the food in front of them was already piled up.

"Dear young masters, do you need anything else?"

The house elf asked again, as if the previous trouble was just a greeting gift for them,

In fact, this is the case. Every time Feeny and the others come over, they have to go through this. After that, they will say that they want to bring some food and leave, or want to eat something. The house elves will immediately rush to meet their requests. ,

Feeney pointed to his target this time, which was the door in the kitchen, and asked the house elf,

"Duoduo, what is that room in the kitchen used for?"

Duoduo, the house elf they were particularly familiar with, answered with great respect,

"Sir, there is the kitchen warehouse, and our cemetery."

Duoduo told Fini the truth without hiding anything.

It's a pity that this answer disappointed Finny. House elves can't lie, which means that there is really no place to hide Hufflepuff's treasure.

Although disappointed, Feeney was still a little interested in this so-called house elf cemetery.

"Has it always been your cemetery?"

He asked,

Because he suddenly thought of something, if it had always been their cemetery, that is to say, it was the cemetery when Hufflepuff was here, and Hufflepuff would put the clues of inheritance in the cemetery of the house elves. Not impossible.

Duoduo nodded and said to Feini,

"Yes, Master Black, that has always been our cemetery. Ever since Ms. Hufflepuff brought us into Hogwarts, that has been our cemetery, and we are honored to be able to enter there."

Sure enough, just like Feeney's guess, it still needs to be seen there.

"Well, Duoduo, can you take me in to have a look?"

Feeney asked,

Duoduo hurriedly bowed and nodded and said,

"Of course, Duoduo will take Master Black in, and ask Master to follow Duoduo."

After hearing what Feeney said, Duoduo's attitude became obviously more respectful. This is also related to the customs of house elves, or the contract in their blood.

Because house elves have the right of ownership, even after they die, they still belong to their master and their master's family.

And as their master, if you can go to the place where they rest after they die, even if you just pass by, it will be the greatest honor for them, and this kind of honor is far more than entering the cemetery passed down from generation to generation. important.

This is also the reason why the house elves of the Black family dream that their masters can put their heads in the corridors for decoration after death, because in that way, the masters can often pass by.

Feeney gestured to the twins, indicating that they should stay here, and he followed Duoduo there.

Although George and Fred were confused, they still nodded and did not get up when Feeney made the gesture.

Feini followed Duoduo through the short wooden door at the back of the kitchen and came to an empty room.

In one corner here are piles of cabbage, potatoes and other vegetables, in another corner is an enchanted freezer with meat and eggs, and above the room are some bacon.

It can be seen that this is indeed the warehouse of the kitchen.

This is not the final destination for Fini and Duoduo yet.

Duoduo took him to the very back of the warehouse, between vegetables and meat.

It found an iron chain here and pulled it up under the influence of magic. As the chain moved, a downward hole appeared in the ground.

Climbing down the stairs at the entrance of the cave, Feeney and Duoduo came to a stone tunnel.

On the stone walls on both sides not far apart is a candle.

Feeney was not sure what material these candles were made of, but the flames on them did not sway due to the wind driven by him as he walked by, and even after burning for a long time, the candles did not fade away.

"These candles are made from oil refined from the corpses of house elves, so they are very resistant to burning."

Duoduo seemed to notice Fini's doubts and explained,

And his explanation also shocked Finny. He had always known that Hufflepuff saved the house elves. However, for some unknown reasons, the house elves did not think that Hufflepuff saved the house elves. What she did back then was not good for them, but she was particularly admired.

However, now that he saw the thousands of candles on both sides of the tunnel, he realized that his guess about what Hufflepuff did back then was far from enough.

Hufflepuff not only transformed house elves, a distant cousin of goblins and elves, into today's wizard slaves, allowing them to serve the wizards while they were alive, but also developed many methods of using the corpses of house elves , and these means are now lost, but these candles still represent something.
