I, The Scavenger Of The Universe, Found A Chat Group

Although she believed what Shi Huang said, Hermione still wanted to give it a try.

The result was obvious. After Hermione said that, every house elf avoided her.

Xing Zhi said bluntly:”Thank you for your concern, lady. But we are all very satisfied with our current life and do not need the so-called freedom.”

“Maybe you can put this concern on those house-elves who are abused by their masters.”

Hermione returned to Shi Huang with a disappointed look on her face.

Shi Huang comforted her,”Okay, don’t think too much. How long have you been in the wizarding world?”

“These complex and profound questions should be considered after you have a better understanding of the wizarding world.”

Hermione nodded, not quite understanding.

Because of Shi Huang’s words, Hermione gave up the idea of giving the house-elves freedom.

One of the advantages of hot pot is that you don’t have to wait too long. Soon Xingzhi brought the hot pot soup base and ingredients.

“This is, hot pot?” Looking at the ingredients in front of her, Hermione asked uncertainly.

Perhaps some people don’t know that there is hot pot in England.

It’s just that the origin of British hot pot is not as deep as that in the East.

The earliest British hot pot can be traced back to the last century. In order to adapt to the harsh working and living environment, the workers and farmers at that time invented smoked meat hot pot.

It uses smoked beef and sweet corn and other ingredients.

Compared with the rich ingredients of Oriental hot pot, British hot pot focuses more on the taste of meat. Sometimes the cooked meat is roasted again.

Moreover, the cooking method of British hot pot is different from that of Oriental hot pot.

British hot pot is usually roasted and boiled at the same time, and all the ingredients are thrown in and cooked in one go.

It is precisely because of these differences that Hermione’s tone is a little uncertain.

“That’s right.” Shi Huang added,”This is oriental hot pot, come and try it.”

“Just blanch the food and dip it in your favorite sauce.”

Shi Huang said as he demonstrated the operation himself.

Hermione followed Shi Huang’s introduction and clumsily picked up a piece of beef roll with chopsticks and put it into the bottom of the clear soup pot.

Considering that Hermione might not be able to eat spicy food, Xingzhi prepared a double-flavored hot pot this time.

Soon the beef was cooked through, and Hermione took several tries to pick it up.

Dip it in her favorite sauce that she had prepared herself, blew on it a few times, and then put it in her mouth.

The next moment, the tender texture of the beef and the rich flavor of the sauce exploded in Hermione’s mouth.

The little witch widened her eyes again, amazed by the deliciousness of the hot pot.

Shi Huang smiled and asked,”How is it, is it delicious?”

Hermione chewed the food and nodded repeatedly

“Try other foods, you won’t be disappointed.”

Hermione didn’t care about being reserved. Even though she was not very familiar with the use of chopsticks, she couldn’t stop her enthusiasm for tasting food.

Beef, mutton, duck blood, seafood, vegetables, as well as tripe, beef tripe, duck intestines, etc.

When she learned from Shi Huang about the sources of the last few ingredients, Hermione was surprised again.

She had never thought that animal offal could be so delicious!

And the hot and spicy feeling of the spicy hot pot base, which seemed too stimulating at first, became more and more addictive. After eating half full in one breath, Hermione stopped eating seriously.

Realizing that she had once again exposed her indecent side in front of Shi Huang, the little witch’s face, which was already stimulated by the chili pepper, became even redder.

In order to dispel her inner shyness, Hermione found a topic

“By the way, Senior Shi, you said earlier that you wanted to ask Myrtle something, what is it? If it’s inconvenient to tell me, forget it.”

“Actually, it’s not something that can’t be said.”

Shi Huang kept washing the hot pot with his hands, and started to improve his previous excuse.

“I just want to ask Myrtle, how did she die?”

“So Senior Shi is also interested in how the Hogwarts ghosts died?”

Hermione thought of herself. When she first entered school, she asked Nick, who is almost headless, why he was called this name.

Then she almost lost her appetite.

When she thought of the ghost’s broken neck, Hermione hurriedly ate two more bites of delicious food and shook off the picture in her mind.

“In fact, I’m just curious about how Myrtle died.”Shi Huang shook his head and denied Hermione’s guess.

“Why? Is there something special about her?”Hermione asked puzzled

“Of course. She is the only ghost born in Hogwarts in the past fifty years, and she died at such a young age.”

Shi Huang asked back:”If it were you, wouldn’t you be curious about what happened back then?”

After being asked by Shi Huang, Hermione’s curiosity was also aroused.

She subconsciously lowered her voice and asked:”Then senior, have you found anything?”

Shi Huang spread his hands and said:”I haven’t even found Myrtle, how could I find anything?”

This is a lie.

As a time traveler who has read the original novel, Shi Huang knows all about Myrtle.

To put it simply, when Myrtle was still a student, she couldn’t stand the sarcasm of a certain student and hid in the women’s bathroom to cry.

This is quite similar to Hermione.

As a result, Myrtle ran into Tom Riddle, who discovered the Slytherin Chamber of Secrets, that is, Voldemort.

At that time, Voldemort was chatting with the basilisk in Parseltongue.

Myrtle heard that the voice outside was a boy, so she opened the door to remind the other party that this was the women’s bathroom.

Then she saw the eyes of the basilisk as soon as she opened the door.

The person disappeared in an instant.

In order to prevent Hermione from being too curious and accidentally triggering Harry’s plot in the next semester.

Shi Huang does not plan to tell her the above content for the time being.

“Let’s not talk about this.”

Shi Huang changed the subject and said,”Tell me about you. Why did you hide in that place and cry alone before?”

Speaking of this, Hermione was a little embarrassed and stammered to tell the reason again. It was the same as Shi Huang remembered.

Because she pointed out Ron’s pronunciation error of the levitation spell in class, Ron, who had a strong sense of self-esteem, complained about her behind her back, saying that she was annoying and had no friends.

Then Hermione happened to pass by and happened to hear what Ron said.

Children of Hermione’s age are often very sensitive and care a lot about what others think of them.

Especially Hermione is a little wizard from a Muggle family.

She came to Hogwarts alone away from her parents.

After a few months of campus life, she thought she had made good friends, but she found that the other party was saying bad things about her behind her back.

And it seemed that they didn’t regard her as a friend at all.
