Chapter 298: Filial piety

In the bedroom, in front of Mike stood two Shukebetta brothers and four house elves Shining Dobby.
Shining is staring at Shu Ke and Beta with envious eyes at this moment.
No way, compared with Shining and Dobby, Shuke and Beta look much better.
They all wore neatly reduced butler uniforms, standing there with their backs upright, looking very energetic.
Although house elves are slaves of wizards, wizards are also more sensitive in giving house elves costumes, but the appearance of house elves often used to entertain guests can also highlight the host’s financial and moral level.
In Winning's view, Mike must be a very kind new owner with rich financial resources.
And Dobby didn't think so much. At this moment, he was already excited and couldn't help himself. He just signed a magic contract with Mike with the assistance of Hermione. He is now an honorable Los Santos Group employee!
Weekly salary of 2 gallons! Only need to work 8 hours a day, weekend weekends!
Dobby feels like he can wake up from a dream.
But the Shukebetta brothers and Shining didn't think so. They despised Dobby, the house-elf scum who needed a salary for his work. This can be seen from the standing.
The three of them all stood as far away as possible from Dobby.
"Then, Beta, Dobby will hand it over to you first, and you can take him to the Los Santos Group headquarters later, and he will be responsible for cleaning there in the future."
Shu Ke bowed and said yes, and then walked away with Dobby in a constipated look.
At this moment, Mike finally set his sights on Shining again.
"Oh! Shining, I'm very happy that you can join my family." Mike exclaimed, "I'm glad you are different from Dobby. Really, the salary is on the other hand, mainly vacations. Maybe you don't know. There is so much work that needs to be done on my side. If you also require an 8-hour work schedule and weekly breaks like Dobby, it would be too difficult for me to do it!"
"Shanling is a good elf! Shining will work hard and will never disappoint her master!"
Shining shouted in excitement, and an unexplained smile appeared on Mike's face.
"It looks like you can't wait to get into work, but we still have one thing to figure out before that." Mike paused and continued, "I remember you used to be a house elf from the Crouch family, right? ? Then do you know where Barty Crouch Jr. went?"
Wen Yan Xing's body froze suddenly, trembling all over, with a look of fear on her face.
"Little...Little Master, he...he is missing! Shining doesn't know where he has gone!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Shining began to slam her head against the wall, which was the usual way the house elf used to punish herself.
Mike nodded slightly. He still believed what Yan said, that the traditional house elves would never deceive the owner.
"Tell me more about Shining, how did Barty Crouch Jr. disappear?"
"No! Shining can't say it!" Shining continued to hit the wall with her head, "Tingy is a bad elf! Shining has revealed the secret of her former master!"
Upon seeing this, Mike did not choose to continue persuading, but took out a translucent bottle of potion and handed it to Shuke, and at the same time instructed him:
"I want to know everything about the Crouch's house. Bring Xiaoyan back and persuade her to use this thing if it doesn't work. By the way, do you know how to use this thing?"
With a sharp finger tracing the word Veritaserum written on the bottle, Shu Ke nodded firmly, and then pulled the painful sparkle and left Mike's bedroom.
Nodding his head, Mike also took out the Freemasonry gold coin and went to the curse training ground in the secret realm.
He will practice silent and wandless spellcasting here.
It is well known that children with wizarding talent will have at least one magic burst before the age of eleven, and the formation of the magic burst is because at this time the magic in the little wizard is still in an active but uncontrollable stage, so it is often emotional. The influence in turn caused all kinds of abnormal supernatural phenomena around them.
Strictly speaking, this is also a silent and wandless cast.
But after the age of eleven, as the body and character gradually mature, this natural silent and wandless spellcasting ability will disappear from the little wizard.
If you want to master these two abilities again, you need a strong talent and hard work.
The techniques of Silent Charm and Wandless Charm are not really secrets, but there are very few wizards who really master them.
Because if you want to master these two spellcasting techniques, you must fully understand the principle of the formation of spells, but this means that you must learn one by one, because each spell operates in a completely different way.
At the same time, you also need to have a strong control over the magic power, because your act of waving the magic wand and chanting the mantra is actually guiding the magic power to follow the set trajectory to become a complete mantra. This kind of foolish spellcasting, and now you have lost the guidance of the two, the magic power completely requires you to control the operation. During this period, if your magic power is not enough to control the power, then the magic power’s trajectory will have a small error, plus Without the magic wand's super powerful boost to the power of the spell, the power of the spell released will be greatly reduced.
But to achieve a perfect engraving of the spell, the control required is extremely exaggerated, and the current Mike is still far away.
Therefore, Mike's study of silent and rodless curses is actually a thankless act.
Because the power of the silent curse and the wandless curse he released now is much weaker than the one he released with a wand.
But there is no way. Mike’s current strength has reached a steady and slow rise. He has not been able to find any way to make his strength soar again, so he can only practice Silent and Wandless Spell to strengthen himself in the future. How to deal with the situation.
At the same time, through the use of silent and wandless spells to exercise their magic control ability, and the power of magic control after reaching the extreme, it can only be described as terrifying!
According to Mike’s speculation, if he can really reach the height that exists only in theory, then he does not need to understand its mechanism and principle at all when releasing the spell. The magic in his body will be automatically generated according to his thoughts. Supernatural phenomena are equivalent to possessing a certain degree of ability to make things happen!
For example, in front of you is a big river without bridges, and you cannot cross it.
Your heart moves and you want to fly over.
Then the next moment you will find you floating up.
Or, what you were thinking at the time was if there was a bridge.
Then the soil and stones on the surrounding shore will automatically deform and reorganize in the next moment, and become a bridge.
Or even further, you want to make this river disappear.
Then the big river disappeared inexplicably in the next moment!
Of course, this is only an ideal state in theory, Mike estimates that he will not reach this level in his life.
But the magic control ability still has to continue to practice, after all, this ability has improved, and it also has a bonus to the power of his spell.
Now the decisive battle is imminent, he has to make good use of all the free time, and can increase his strength a little bit.
And when Mike returned to the dormitory after a day of training, he saw the house elves Shuke and Shining already waiting for him.
Shining looks no different from before, but besides respect, there is a little more fear in her eyes when she looks at Mike.
"Master! Shining has already explained everything she knows."
After all, Shuke respectfully returned the Veritaserum and a roll of parchment to Mike.
Looking at the completely unopened Veritaserum, Mike was a little surprised.
He really didn’t expect Shu Ke to make Shining speak without using Veritaserum. Is it because Shu Ke’s interrogation skills are too superb or Shine’s loyalty to the Crouch family is far less than it seems. ?
Although he thought so in his heart, Mike, who had been exhausted after a day of practice, did not ask, but directly unfolded the parchment.
Unsurprisingly Mike expected, what is recorded above is exactly the story of filial filial piety between Crouch and his father.
After the young Batty Crouch was in prison, Mrs. Crouch was heartbroken and forced the old Batty to take herself to Azkaban to visit her son.
However, they used the civet cat in exchange for the prince. Old Mrs. Crouch took the initiative to take the compound decoction and became Barty little, then committed suicide and died in Azkaban.
But Barty Jr. escaped Azkaban in the form of old Mrs. Crouch.
Although the old Barty knew this beforehand and agreed, he still inevitably hated his son after his wife's death.
In addition, the young Barty was brainwashed too deeply by Voldemort, and after being rescued, he was still unwilling to change his mind. The old Barty used the Imperius Curse to control him and lock him up.
This makes Barty's mental condition continue to deteriorate, and he is almost on the verge of collapse.
Shining, the house elf who has been taking care of Barty, couldn't stand it anymore, so she proposed to let Barty go to see his favorite Quidditch World Cup, and promised that this would improve his mental condition.
It turns out that the old Batty still loves his son. Although he repeatedly released the Imperius Curse against Batty before letting the little Batty go to the game, in the end, she let Shining accompany him to the game.
Unfortunately, due to being controlled by the Imperius for a long time, Little Batty has become resistant to the Imperius.
He took advantage of the riot in the Quidditch World Cup and escaped!
This is all that is recorded on the parchment.
And then Mike knew what happened.
Little Batty couldn't bear the joy of regaining freedom. He picked up a magic wand and released the reappearance of the bone to announce his return.
Then he hid in the dark and chose to continue to serve Voldemort.
‘This is really filial piety to the father and the son! ’
After reading the parchment, Mike sighed deeply, and said to the shivering shivering:
"In the future, you should also go to the headquarters of Los Santos Group to help the staff there, serve tea and water, I believe the people there will welcome you very much."
Shining bowed gratefully to Mike and then disappeared into the dormitory with Shuke.
...
As the time got closer and closer to Christmas, news of the Christmas ball gradually spread, and it was only then that everyone understood what the dresses they were asked to prepare on the admission notice this year were used for.
For this dance party, everyone showed unprecedented enthusiasm.
You must know that this dance party is different from the usual Christmas dinners. In this dance party, you need to dance with your partner!
This is a good opportunity for many couples to increase their relationship, and for those single dogs who long for love, it is a great opportunity to get out of the singles!
Everyone moved, and everyone in Hogwarts could be seen inviting others to be their dance partners, as if they were afraid that they would be snatched away if they slow down.
Warriors such as Mike are the key guests of others.
Harry, Fleur, and Krum were all single, so they were besieged immediately.
Among them, Furong and Krum received the most invitations. After all, their males are tall and handsome, and the females are beautiful.
On the other side, Mike, although everyone knows that he has been with Penello a long time ago, the girls who invited him have not decreased at all. Corner.
But they still underestimated the relationship between Mike and Penello.
No matter how hard they tried, the response Mike gave them was still declined~EbookFREE.me~ which disappointed them.
As for Harry, a brave warrior, the invitation he received was much less than the three above.
In this regard, Harry was very happy at the beginning.
After all, although Mike and the others are more popular, the fanatical female fans have seriously affected their lives. Krum even hid in Durmstrang’s ship to avoid those female fans. It can be seen that sometimes too popular is not a good thing.
When faced with those rare girls who invited him, Harry also declined.
He already has someone he wants to invite.
That is Qiu Zhang.
Harry still remembers that afternoon, when he had just finished training Quidditch, and the smell of sweat made him want to go back and take a shower.
At this time, Qiu Zhang appeared.
She smiled and greeted him.
Harry can't remember everything after that, he only remembers that Qiu Zhang's body smells good, Qiu Zhang's smile is so beautiful, as soon as he sees her, his heartbeat will suddenly accelerate!
Mike has known Qiu Zhang a long time ago. As a Gryffindor Seeker, it is necessary to know other teams' Seekers.
But he really did not expect that Qiu Zhang would be so beautiful after taking off his Quidditch equipment!
During that time, even Harry's dream would have Qiu Zhang's smile.
"Perhaps Ron isn't the only person in the spring season."
Harry muttered, and his thoughts returned to the afternoon when he met her. He felt that he was in love with Qiu Zhang.
