Chapter 107 The destroyed herbal greenhouse(2/3)
Xifa was shocked and ended the conversation without changing his expression.
Holding Luna's hand, she looked for the sound and saw several young wizards in gray robes calling anxiously from the shore.
It seemed that they were lower-grade outer house students, that is, Hogwarts students who were not qualified for the sorting ceremony.
Tsk, let me just say, how could Riddle fall into the water? It’s almost as if he made people fall into the water.
It seems that he is a student from an external college named Tom.
Elise once told herself at the lakeside that there was a big squid in the black lake. When a little wizard was playing around and drowning at the lake, it would send the little wizard back to the shore.
Obviously, the young wizards in the outer courtyard did not know this information.
Now that he had been bumped into, Xifa exerted force on his hand.
The soil rolled, and he and Luna quickly rushed to their side.
"What's going on?"
Of course Xifa asked what they were doing.
With a wave of the magic wand in his hand, the water plants by the lake began to grow longer, and then intertwined to form a vine.
Pulled the struggling little boy out of the water.
"It's all my fault, Tom was trying to protect me..."
The girl in gray robe knelt beside Tom, who was lying on his back on the ground. Several other little wizards also let go of a boy who looked somewhat similar to Tom.
It looked like he wanted to jump down and save others.
Xifa didn't ask why they didn't use magic...that would be like rubbing salt into their bruised magical talents.
Apparently, a group of them were playing by the lake. The little witch in front of them slipped and was about to fall into the water. In order to save her, the boy fell into the lake himself.
"Recover quickly"
"Whirlwind Sweep"
...
A series of magic removes the water stains from the boy's body and then stimulates him to wake up.
Without exchanging more greetings with them, Xifa waved his hand and said goodbye to them.
If it weren't for the Quidditch game, these little wizards from the outer courtyard would have no chance to play here.
By the way, Tom...this is really a popular name.

After having lunch, walking out of the Great Hall and passing through the gate of Hogwarts Castle, Xifa saw a group of Aurors from the Ministry of Magic rushing towards them.
What happened?
Afterwards, Xifa shook his head and gave up his intention of following them to their destination to watch the excitement. He had done nothing recently and it was definitely not looking for him.
Could it be that the little wizard named Tom died? I suspect he did it himself?
Seeing the group of Aurors walking towards the back of the castle, Xifa guessed.
I would never encounter such a bloody thing!
The next day, Senior Sister Miranda found the three of them in the auditorium.
She has some magical questions to ask.
So, the three of them took Senior Sister Miranda back to the Ravenclaw common room.
Luna and Xifa went back to Xifa's dormitory first, while Elise gave explanations to senior Miranda in the common room.
Xifa, Luna and Thunderbird Thor were playing around for a while.
Elise walked in with a solemn expression.
"What's wrong? Is there a difficult problem to solve?" Xifa was a little confused.
Could it be that Senior Miranda asked some excessive questions?
"No..." Elise shook her head.
"Yesterday, during the Quidditch match, the herb shed was vandalized!"
Hearing this, Luna, who was teasing Sol on the side, suddenly jumped up.
"What!" she screamed, frightening Thor to circle in the air before slowly waving his wings vigorously in front of the three people to express his dissatisfaction.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! However, Luna disappointed it. She didn't even look at it and pulled it aside.
He put his hands on Elise's shoulders, looking excited.
Elise looked solemn and nodded again, indicating that it was true.
"Yesterday, the Auror we met came to deal with this matter. By the way, we reported to the Ministry of Magic that Hogwarts needs to purchase some strategic supplies."
Oh my god...Luna looked like she was beyond hope.
Xifa looked a little confused. The herb greenhouse was damaged. What does it have to do with Luna?
Luna, who was in a state of despair, naturally would not answer Xifa's question.
Seeing the confusion on Xifa's face, Elise hugged Luna to comfort her and explained to Xifa softly.
"Luna has always purchased some materials from outside. For many herbs, Luna would go to the herb greenhouse to collect wool."
"Professor Bernice Leslie doesn't care?" Xifa was shocked. The herb greenhouse was run by Bernice Leslie, the professor of Herbology and the headmaster of Hufflepuff.
"Of course not, Luna also wants to arrange some oxytocin for Professor Bernice Leslie as a trade."
Hearing this, Xifa breathed a sigh of relief. If Professor Bernice Leslie helped Luna for free, then the favor would be huge.
After hesitating for a moment, Xifa said, "Since this happened in the herb greenhouse, shouldn't we go visit Professor Bernice Leslie?"
In addition to comforting her, you can also see what herbs have survived.
When it came to herbs, Luna's thoughts were spinning very fast.
She understood Xifa's secret purpose when he finished his words.
Luna immediately broke away from Elise's arms and wiped away the non-existent tears.
He grabbed Elise and rushed out of the door.
Xifa also wanted to catch up and trotted to the door, only to notice Sol who was feeling resentful.
He took out a bucket of Sol's favorite ration from his pocket.
Throwing it on the ground and telling it not to go out, he hurriedly chased after the two girls who disappeared at the end of the aisle.

The herb greenhouse is at the back of the main castle, which is why the Aurors came to the back of the main castle.
When I entered the shed and took a look, I found that instead of the entire army being wiped out as imagined, only one shed was completely destroyed.
Here, they met Professor Bernice Leslie who was working hard to replant herbs.
"It's you! Come and help! I'll reward you afterwards."
As for the three people from Xifa, their craftsmanship is pretty good. They helped me sort out the mess, which made me feel relieved.
Although the area of the herb greenhouse was completely destroyed, Professor Bernice Leslie did not greet the three of them angrily.
Seeing Professor Bernice Leslie smiling gently at them, the three of them could not say any comforting words.
I came here, and I also found out that the professor was the big boss who supplied Luna with the potion.
The three people from Xifa worked hard without any complaints.
As he continued to do it, Xifa felt something was not quite right.
These herbs seem to be detoxifying herbs.
Mandrake, grimace chrysanthemum, jumping mung bean...
With a thought, Xifa asked, "Professor, are all the detoxifying herbs grown in this greenhouse?"
"Yes!" After hesitating for a moment, Bernice Leslie seemed to have heard about the deeds of the three people.
She continued, "Don't publicize it to the outside world. The mature mandrake here is an important ingredient to lift the curse."
"The prisoner is very cautious. He destroyed this place. He wanted to destroy the shed next door, but I discovered it. The most annoying thing is that he escaped. He didn't leave any traces. The Auror checked carefully."
"If only I knew who it was!" Professor Bernice Leslie became more and more angry as she spoke. Finally, Professor Bernice Leslie said through gritted teeth.
The professor's talent lies in herbal medicine, and he is not good at magic such as combat, so it is normal to invite an Auror.
To be able to make the good old Professor Bernice Leslie behave like this seems to have really offended her.
Xifa quickly motioned for Luna to go up and comfort the professor.
With Luna's comfort, Professor Bernice regained her peace of mind.
With the help of three people, the herb greenhouse is revitalized.
