Chapter 189: I know the smell of cockroaches

Seeing this, Mike hurriedly closed the bag, so that the cockroaches in the bag did not crawl out.
The cockroach pile, hence the name, means a pile of cockroaches, but it is not a real cockroach, but a kind of candy shaped like a cockroach.
Feeling the wonderful touch of the cockroaches squirming in the bag, Mike frowned disgustingly, pinched the mouth of the bag with his index finger and thumb, and returned it to Dumbledore.
Dumbledore was not surprised by Mike's reaction. In fact, he has given Amway this "gourmet" to many people, and it has long been no surprise.
He took the bag and took out a pile of cockroaches that was still crawling and threw it into his mouth to eat. Not only that, Dumbledore showed a very intoxicated expression as he ate, as if he was eating. What a peerless taste.
After eating one, Dumbledore once again took out a pile of cockroaches and handed it to Mike who looked shocked on the opposite side.
"Is there an old saying in the far East that people can't look good? It means that we can't judge a person based on appearance alone," Dumbledore said. "Come and have a taste. I promise you will never be disappointed."
Looking at the cockroach-like candy that was still dancing in front of him, Mike was a little at a loss.
To be honest, Mike believes that he has a relatively strong ability to accept this kind of heavy-tasting food, like the kind of heavy-tasting food that has a disgusting color and named preserved eggs in the ancient Oriental country, he has eaten it, although Only one time.
He had tried insects before, but they were fried, and the kind of bee pupae that he ate was relatively clean. To be honest, the taste was not bad.
But looking at the pile of roaches in front of him, though he knew it was just a candy, Mike still didn't dare to start.
This is as difficult as putting a chocolate-flavored shi and a shi-flavored chocolate in front of you to make you choose one to eat.
After hesitating for a while, under Dumbledore's encouraging eyes, Mike finally reached out to the cockroach-like candy.
To be honest, he is still very interested in this famous heavy-tasting candy.
Of course, he didn't take the whole cockroach directly, but just broke off one leg.
Putting this slender leg in front of his eyes, Mike found that this candy named Cockroach Pile was still different from a real cockroach.
Although a real cockroach leg can remain active for a period of time after being broken off, the degree of flexibility will also be greatly reduced. However, after the cockroach pile was broken off, the legs were the same as when it was on the body, swinging violently.
After gritting his teeth, Mike threw the cockroach leg into his mouth, then closed his eyes and started chewing.
As soon as he bit down, Mike opened his eyes and a surprised look appeared on his face.
The smell of cockroaches' feet is actually pretty good!
Unlike the real cockroach legs, the legs of the cockroach pile are hard, and Mike's mouth is full of the smell of coffee.
If you insist on using an ordinary candy to describe it, the legs of the cockroach pile will taste like coffee hard candy, or the top one.
Seeing Mike's shocked expression after eating, Dumbledore quickly handed over the broken cockroach pile, eyes full of expectation and encouragement.
After trying the cockroach stacking legs, Mike changed his mind to this kind of candy, which was completely indistinguishable from a live cockroach. He hesitated after receiving the candy in Dumbledore's hand, and finally closed his eyes to make this kind of still struggling. The pile of cockroaches was thrown into his mouth.
As soon as the pile of cockroaches entered his mouth, Mike desperately chewed. He didn't want to feel the sensation of live cockroaches crawling in his mouth, so he wanted to quickly kill the pile of cockroaches in this way.
However, the pile of cockroaches is just candy, it has no life at all, and there is no such thing as death. So no matter how Mike chewed, the cockroach pile in his mouth was still crawling.
Mike resisted the goose bumps in his mouth and chewed quickly, and as he chewed, an increasingly strong coffee scent permeated and passed through his throat. Punch the nasal cavity.
Mike was surprised to find that, aside from the horrible feeling of live cockroaches crawling in your mouth, the smell of the cockroach pile was really good!
The wings, limbs and shell of the cockroach pile are made of hard coffee candies, while the abdomen is made of soft candies. When you bite down, the milk chocolate syrup inside will spew out, releasing a rich sweetness. A small amount of bitterness in the hard coffee can be neutralized, leaving only the strong coffee aroma in the end.
Mike didn't even swallow at all, and the cockroach melted after being piled under his chewing.
"Do you want another one?"
Seeing that Mike had finished eating, Dumbledore took out another pile of cockroaches and handed it over, his eyes full of expectations.
"No, the principal, I think this kind of delicacy is enough a day." Mike quickly refused. Although the cockroaches tasted good, it tasted too creepy. Mike didn't want to try it again.
"You're right, the more delicious the food, the more we need to be restrained. This is the same as being a human being. We must be sensible in the face of temptation." Dumbledore stopped persuading when he saw it, and piled up the cockroaches. He got up and said, "Thank you for being able to accompany me to dinner, Mr. Tangli. To be honest, I haven't had such a happy meal in a long time."
Dumbledore's words were so sincere that Mike couldn't tell the truth from the false at all, so he could only return a regular polite sentence.
Dumbledore did not lie, and he did have a great time for this dinner today.
The older the older people tend to like the children, Dumbledore is no exception. What he likes most is the smiles of the children, so he always invites those students who come to his office to eat desserts and sweets. He thinks Sweet things can make people happy.
However, I don’t know why, maybe it’s because I’m too nervous in front of my principal or for other reasons. Only a few students are willing to try the candies given by Dumbledore, and there is no student in Cockroach Pile. Dare to try, which makes Dumbledore very disappointed.
But today Mike not only ate his cake, but also tried his collection of cockroach piles, which made Dumbledore, a candy lover and kind grandpa, overjoyed.
Of course, Dumbledore had also wondered if Mike had eaten those things deliberately to please himself.
But when he saw Mike's food, he dismissed the idea and came to the conclusion that the child is really hungry.
Mike certainly didn't know what Dumbledore thought. As Dumbledore had concluded, he would only eat what Dumbledore gave him simply because he was hungry.
Mike had also wondered if Dumbledore would put some potions like Veritaserum in his food, but he rejected this conjecture in an instant.
Are you kidding me? A great wizard like Dumbledore still needs medicine to deal with himself?
After that, the two chatted for a while on the topic of Hogwarts campus before Dumbledore finally got into the subject.
"Mike, can you tell me what happened last night?"
As soon as Mike's expression suffocated, the atmosphere in the office suddenly became low.
"Okay, Principal Dumbledore." Mike heard the words, sat upright and said slowly, "I was suddenly awakened in my sleep that night and found a piece of parchment beside my pillow with the words'Penello in my Here, I will come to the forbidden forest alone now, and I’m not allowed to tell anyone.’ So I went to the forbidden forest.
I believe you already know the rest. The person who sent me the letter was Percy, or Voldemort to be precise. He conquered the eight-eyed giant spider and centaur in the forbidden forest and attacked me, and I was forced to fight back. "
Dumbledore looked directly into Mike's eyes while Mike was speaking, as if he could tell from Mike's eyes whether Mike was lying.
Mike knew that a wizard of Dumbledore's level didn't need to chant spells and wands at all when releasing the mind of the panther, so he also ran the Occlumency at his full strength, hoping to fool Dumbledore.
"Then what about that parchment? Mr. Townley." Dumbledore was silent for a long time, looking away and asking.
"It burned spontaneously after I watched it."
After speaking, the office fell into silence.
I don’t know how long it took before Dumbledore spoke again: "Well, Mr. Townley, thank you very much for bringing the injury over today. I am very sorry for what happened to you. I did not protect you as the principal. Dereliction of duty."
"You have said that the principal is serious, so I should apologize to you. If I had told you the matter in the first place, maybe it would not have caused such a big trouble."
"Well, we two should stop being so humbly with each other. I think it's time for you to go back. If you don't go back, your friends should be anxious." Dumbledore said with a kind smile. " I hope you can resume your study as soon as possible, and I hope you can get good results in the next exams."
Hearing Dumbledore mention his friend, Mike was surprised, knowing that there was no one around him when he first woke up.
But Mike didn't think too much, just now Dumbledore's gaze gave him a lot of pressure, and now he didn't want to stay in this place for a second, so he got up and left.
But when Mike was about to leave the office, Dumbledore stopped him again.
"One more thing, the diary has been tested and proved to be Voldemort’s Horcrux, and as a reward for you who destroyed the Horcrux and saved your classmates, I decided to add 100 points to Ravenclaw and award Your Hogwarts Special Contribution Award." Dumbledore smiled, "Finally, I hope you can forgive Hagrid's rudeness. He is actually a very good person, but he doesn't know enough about some things. complete."
"Thank you very much, Principal Dumbledore, this is what I should do." Mike turned around and looked at Dumbledore with a slightly surprised look and said sincerely, "As for Hagrid, I didn't take it to heart from the beginning. Hagrid and I are also friends, and it was completely angry to say that we should be held accountable."
...
On the way back to the ward, Mike had a bright smile on his face.
What Dumbledore had just expressed was very clear. He awarded Mike a special contribution award and at the same time gave Ravenclaw one hundred points, in exchange for Mike not holding Hagrid's responsibility.
The price given by Dumbledore is not too small, and 100 points are not a big deal, and this special contribution award is very powerful.
As far as Mike knows, the review of the Hogwarts Special Contribution Award is extremely strict. Once the winner’s name and trophy will be placed in the Hogwarts prize showroom forever, accepting generations of little wizards worship.
At the same time, this award can also add points to the wizard rating test in the future, and it can also play a considerable role in the future job search.
This transaction can be said to be profitable and harmless to Mike, so Mike agreed with almost no hesitation.
Mike humming a little song all the way back to his ward, and as soon as he opened the door, he found that his ward was already full of people.
Penello was lying on Mike's bed in pain, and there was a dinner on the bedside table beside her~EbookFREE.me~ and Mrs. Weasley was squatting beside her and patted her gently. He said something comforting her back.
But Harry, Franklin, others, and the rest of the Weasley family were anxious, guessing at each other where Mike might be.
When Mike saw this scene, he understood. It turned out that when he woke up, the reason why there was no one by his side was just because Penello and the others went to dinner. Now they should have brought food to Mike but found that Mike was missing, so they were worried .
"Wow, I didn't expect it to be so lively in my room?"
Mike deliberately said this in a very exaggerated tone, and suddenly he heard Mike's voice, and everyone in the room was attracted to him.
Penello raised the delicate face of Yudai Lihua, and looked towards the door with a pair of red and swollen eyes.
Penello's eyes lit up as soon as he saw Mike, and he quickly got up to say something.
However, some people are faster than her.
"Mike, I really appreciate you!" Mrs. Weasley took three steps and took two steps forward, holding Mike's hand and choked, "Thank you for saving Percy. Really, if this child is out What's the matter, his father and I really don't know what to do!"
"Yes, Mike, this time I really thank you." The Weasley brothers also gathered around and said gratefully, "Principal Dumbledore told me everything happened. Percy is really dead this time!"
Mike looked at Mrs. Weasley, who was holding his hand in front of him and crying, and the three Weasley brothers and their father, Mr. Weasley, who were grateful. They didn’t know what to say. it is good.
At this moment, Madame Pomfleur's voice suddenly came from the corridor:
"The Weasleys, come here! Percy is awake!"
