Chapter 114: Wonderful kitchen

Mike and Franklin no longer hesitated, and went straight to the direction of Hogwarts kitchen. Along the way, Franklin seemed to see that Mike was in a bad mood, and he didn't talk to Mike any more.
The Hogwarts kitchen is located next door to the Hufflepuff Lounge, not far from the greenhouse, and the two quickly walked closer to the kitchen.
"Why did you come to Hufflepuff?" Suddenly a voice came.
Mike and Franklin looked back and saw that Cedric and the two lower-grade Hufflepuff students were looking at them with doubts.
"We are going to the kitchen." Mike replied with a smile.
"I haven't thanked you for what happened last time. I went out on patrol with the management team that day. I didn't arrive in time. Fortunately, you did it." Cedric said sincerely, "Is there anything going on in the kitchen? I am very familiar, maybe I can still help."
Mike said indifferently, "Uh, no. I just think that Hufflepuff Butter Chicken at noon is delicious, and I want to ask the house elves how they do it."
"Ha! That's Mrs. Hufflepuff's masterpiece!" Cedric snapped his fingers and said excitedly, "Well, let me go with you, just to introduce you to Hogwarts Kitchen."
Mike and Franklin looked at each other, and both found the helplessness in each other's eyes.
"No, really." Mike paused, "We won't bother you for this little thing."
Cedric is not a person with a hugely low EQ. After thinking about it, he understands that he has made a mistake. He quickly said: "Well, then I won't go with you. When I have the opportunity, I will take you to Hufflepuff. Go around in the odd lounge."
Mike resolutely agreed, and this dismissed the enthusiastic Cedric.
Watching Cedric disappear at the entrance of Hufflepuff College, Mike led Franklin into the Hogwarts kitchen.
The Hogwarts kitchen is very large, but the equipment is very simple. Let alone an electric oven and dishwasher, even the most basic stove is wood-burning. It is hard to imagine that the house elves made so many dishes in such an "ancient" kitchen.
When Mike and Franklin came to the kitchen, the house elves were preparing dinner. Today’s dinner should be grilled chicken and sausages. Many house elves wearing pillowcases with Hogwarts logo are working together. Some fingers are like music. The conductor waved like that, and the whole live chicken was quickly killed, bleeded, and dehaired. Some specialize in controlling the heat, and some use their fingers to direct the processed broilers into a stone kiln similar to the original oven for baking, and the whole kitchen is full of aroma.
A house elf seemed to have spotted Mike and Franklin, screamed and then disappeared with a scream.
Then it seemed to have triggered a chain reaction. The house elves in the entire Hogwarts kitchen looked at Mike and Franklin in horror, and then all disappeared.
Mike was speechless, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and shouted at the deserted kitchen: "We have no malice, but I just want to ask you to help."
"Honorable wizard, what do you need?"
A voice suddenly rang from Mike's side. Mike was taken aback, and finally calmed down the fierce heartbeat and turned his head to look. I saw a well-proportioned house-elf with big pointed ears, about 40 cm high, looking at the two Mikes nervously. There was a smile on that small face, but because of the fact. I was too nervous, so it was deformed.
"Uh, I think..."
Before Mike could finish, the house elf looked fierce, his face was filled with disbelief, and screamed: "Wow! You are Lord Mike! That person participated in the Snake Elimination Operation and was praised by the principal. Lord Mike!"
As soon as these words came out, the house elves who had disappeared came out from all corners of the kitchen and looked at Mike curiously.
"Thank you so much, Lord Mike. If you hadn't gotten rid of the basilisk, we would still not be able to work well." The house elf choked up, "I didn't dare to work during those days. It is too painful to remember!"
The other elves in the kitchen echoed, and soon the cries in the kitchen became full.
Mike reacted immediately and quickly comforted the house elves. It was obviously the first time Franklin saw the house elf with his own eyes. He hadn't adjusted it yet. He really didn't understand why he couldn't feel like this if he couldn't work hard.
After learning about Mike's identity, the treatment of Mike and Franklin immediately got better. The house elves enthusiastically invited the two to sit at a huge table, and one after another exquisite dishes were brought up.
Looking at the house elves before and after the busy work, Mike said to the house elves who had been following them from the beginning, "The hanger" said: "You are so enthusiastic, it made me a little embarrassed."
When the clothes rack heard the words, tears came out of those big eyes immediately, and hurriedly said: "We are really useless, and I am embarrassed by Master Mike~EbookFREE.me~ Damn it!" You have to slap yourself.
Mike hurriedly stopped him and said, "No, no, no! I mean your hospitality is really good, and the food is very delicious!"
The clothes rack turned from sadness to joy.
Seeing the 360-degree change of the clothes hanger's attitude, Mike wiped the cold sweat on his forehead again and said: "The hanger, I think the house elves are the best magical creatures in the world, so I have always wanted one that belongs to me. House elves, don’t know if I can take one from you?"
The hanger was so excited when he heard Mike complimenting them, but when he heard the second half of Mike's words, he showed a look of embarrassment.
"Master Mike, I'm afraid it won't work," said the hanger. "We all signed a contract with Master Hufflepuff to serve Hogwarts for generations."
Mike looked disappointed when he heard the words, but he was happy. He knew everything the hanger said, and he didn't even want to take away the house elves here.
"Since this is the case, then forget it." Mike said, "Can I ask you a favor? Professor Lockhart will come here to discuss something with me in a while, you may not know, Professor Lockhart has a word I don’t agree with the habit of doing it. If he does something unusual, can you help me stop him?"
The hanger saw the disappointed look on Mike's face and his heart was almost broken. As a house elf, it was the most serious crime to not satisfy the owner.
At this time, when Mike made another request, there was no reason why he could not agree, and he happily agreed.
A smile appeared on Mike's face when the hanger agreed without hesitation. It's stable now. If Lockhart is really the heir, then he can definitely surprise him today!
