Peter rolled his eyes at him. He always revealed a strange and elegant temperament, which made others not pay too much attention to his appearance. Therefore, although those who knew Peter knew that he was handsome, they would not feel amazed.
Peter was exhausted tonight. After taking a comfortable bath in the bathroom, he took off his armed shell and caused a sensation in the common room.
Allen White pulled Peter up the stairs and walked straight to the fireplace, where girls kept greeting him.
"Hello, Peter."
"I'm Alice Sharp. Peter, you look great!”
"Hello,"
……
Peter York walked through the crowd and sat down in confusion. He sighed and said,""I never thought that so many people would greet me. It's unbelievable!”
"Hmph, who asked you to have such a popular face? If you weren't too young now, there would definitely be many beautiful seniors who would want to be your girlfriend!”Allen White said jealously.
Peter ignored his mature roommate. Shouldn't eleven-year-olds focus on playing?
How could a middle-aged man who had lived for more than twenty years in his previous life and was now in his thirties, who had never been in a relationship, live if he knew so much?
Peter didn't sit for long. His stomach was still empty, and the school dinner was over, so he had to find something to eat.
Outside the Slytherin lounge, Peter moved along the corridor toward the Hufflepuffs, remembering the way to the kitchen thanks to his earlier explorations with the twins and Cedric.
The Hogwarts kitchen was near the Hufflepuffs, on the second floor, so there was no need to take the ever-changing stairs.
After a while, he turned left along the marble staircase and came to the end of a wide stone corridor. He found a painting of a silver bowl filled with fruit.
He scratched the pear in the painting, and the pear let out a chuckle. Then, it turned into a big green handle. Peter grabbed the door handle and pulled it, then walked into the door.
"Hey, Peter, why are you here?”
A figure was sitting at the long table in the kitchen, looking at Peter who suddenly appeared in surprise.
Peter was surprised to see Cedric in the kitchen with a pile of cake and snacks on the table.
"Hey, Thad, haven't you had dinner yet?”
Cedric Diggory faltered at this, his eyes evading Peter's.
"No…no, our academy is holding a celebratory dinner in the common lounge, so…so I came to get some food.”
"Oh, is there something to be happy about? Tell me."
York Peter looked at Cedric's secretive expression and was instantly curious. Instead, he wanted to tease Cedric more. He deliberately said,"Aren't we friends? If you have any good news, share it with me. I was grounded at Professor Snape's all night and missed dinner.”。
The innocent Prince Hufflepuff couldn't help but tease him. He blushed and said awkwardly,"" Didn't Slytherin and Gryffindor lose more than five hundred points today? So only Ravenclaw can compete with us for the House Cup, and our House is currently ranked first, so the seniors want to celebrate..."
Peter looked embarrassed. He didn't expect that this group of little badgers would actually have a black-bellied side. They actually publicly celebrated within their own ranks that other academies had their points deducted. What happened to the friendship between the academies?
After the two of them looked at each other speechlessly for a while, the appearance of a house-elf broke the awkward atmosphere.
The elf controlled a puff of waffle floating in the air and put it into the box Cedric had prepared in front of him. The aroma of the waffle reminded Peter of his purpose in coming here.
The house-elves at Hogwarts were not as miserable as Dobby of the Malfoys.
They were all wrapped in clean Hogwarts bandana.
Other than their bat-like ears, slender noses, and dead wood-like limbs that were unsightly, they had been serving Hogwarts for generations. The wizards 'three meals a day, laundry, and cleaning were all done by these hardworking elves.
According to the records of magic history, these house-elves were a race that had been conquered by wizards in ancient times. They had been brainwashed by generations of enslavement ideas that served wizards and obeyed their orders. They had become slaves of ancient and rich wizard families. They had to bear all household chores, be bound by their masters, and be whipped and tortured by their masters at any time. Their status was low.
In Hogwarts 'school history, it was recorded that when these house-elves were persecuted by the wizards, they were accepted by the kind Helga Hufflepuff, the first headmaster of Hogwarts. Under his protection, he opened up the kitchen as the exclusive place for the elves and gave them a home.
Therefore, the house-elves in the kitchen had lived here for generations, exchanging their labor for the protection of Hogwarts, and being loyal to Hogwarts, the school of magic. It also allowed the castle to still stand on the shore of the Black Lake after a thousand years.
"Mr. Diggory, we've finished the supper you wanted us to make, is there anything else we can do?”the house-elf asked in a high-pitched voice, his face full of anticipation. He hoped that the little wizard would need more service.
"No, there's no need. This is enough.”Cedric replied, somewhat at a loss. He was still ashamed of the fact that his house was celebrating the points deducted by others, especially in front of Peter, who regarded him as a friend. He was worried that Peter would stay away from him because of this.
The house-elf was instantly disappointed when he heard this. His skinny body, which was smaller than a goblin, turned to Peter and looked at him expectantly."Mr. Wizard, what can I do for you?”
