A Professor of Magic at Hogwarts: Fanwai Lovegood
Luna Lovegood opened her eyes and stared at the constantly changing clouds in the sky in a daze. The pure sunlight shone on her face through the pores of the Brazilian rainforest, and the air was fresh and pleasant. Her husband Rolf Scamander photographed a plant two kilometers away. A tiny bug crawled all over her.
They stayed in this rainforest for three months, looking for what the locals referred to as a "little bird with a glowing body and flying with a rainbow". An eight-year-old boy said he saw it by the river Unfortunately, it disappeared in the blink of an eye. The source is absolutely reliable, but it's impossible to tell whether it's true or not. It may just be that the boy was blinded and mistakenly associated the rainbow after the rain with some beautiful bird (such as a toucan) that he couldn't name, but they came anyway Yes, as a honeymoon trip for two people.
They searched the nearby waters and ponds, but only found some beautiful feathers and a few sapphires. Today those feathers and gemstones are kept in lockets, alongside blimp plum earrings, cork necklaces, and pebbles. In Rove's words, "You have to accommodate the aesthetics of ordinary people and have one or two pieces of normal jewelry."
Luna sniffed the strong scent of green grass and earth, feeling drowsy. After an unknown amount of time, she was awakened by the whistling sound of the warning spell. It was Rove Scamander, who came back with a camera and a thick notebook.
"Another endangered wild plant was discovered," Rove said, "I left a detector nearby and reported it to the local environmental protection department." He looked at his wife who jumped up from the ground, and couldn't help but Frowning, "You're lying on the ground again..."
Luna quickly took out the magic wand hidden in the thick hair behind her head, pointed at herself, the white mist evaporated from the dew-soaked clothes, she turned around in a circle with great interest, and even jumped twice.
"How about this time?"
"Okay." Rove muttered in a low voice.
The two began to tidy up the tent. Today was the last day in the rainforest, and they were reluctant to leave before leaving. Halfway through packing, they sat among the big and small bags and flipped through the thick photo album.
"This is the local village and residents..."
"I like them, they love to tell jokes," Luna interjected.
"That's right, three sentences can't be separated from a joke. This is a photo of me playing football with them. Look, they are so happy! It's a triumphant smile. I think if it was Quidditch, I would Probably won't lose that badly...you were learning weaving by the side...so who the **** is taking pictures...though I feel the need to remind you that the locals use this technique to make fishing gear, not to wear vines On the body..."
"In the Magic Tavern, we newly met two wizard friends from Castrobusher, and one of them insisted on cursing my little finger, beautiful stun spell, my dear..."
"A toucan swaggered into the tent, but was scared away by the magic lamp."
"Then there are several unique magical animals in Brazil, all of which you discovered first. It's so strange. It reminds me of the scene when we first met."
Surprised, he turned the album forward, skimmed nearly a third of the wedding photos, and stopped at the first few pages.
Two heads come together. In the photo, Luna, who is a few years younger than she is now, is squatting on the ground, reaching out to pet a creature that looks a lot like a ferret. The little guy is eating a steaming hot dog, his eyes squinting happily. The background is a field of ice and snow.
"To be honest, I have been searching for two years in the North Pole," Rove said sourly, "I found nothing. I seriously suspect that my grandfather missed some key information... But it is not empty-handed."
Luna hummed happily from the sidelines, and the tune sounded like the work of the Weird Sisters twelve years ago-'A Great Victory'.
Rove hummed a few words.
Near noon, they walked out of the Brazilian rainforest carrying two suitcases, one large and one small. After Rove handed over a thick stack of photos to local bioconservation organisations, the pair made their way to the border, registered and returned to the UK via Portkey.
"Wizards are born explorers," said a border policeman.
"We've always been like this," Rove replied.
"Hey, I'm talking about the one who went to Mars." The policeman teased.
……
On the hills near the village of Ottery St. Catchpole, the grass was blown in large circles by the wind, and a small house that looked like a knocked-off boot was in the distance.
"My dear daughter! You are back."
Xenophilius Lovegood ran out of the house to hug Luna, who patted her father on the back. Xenophilius was dressed dirty, his cotton candy-like hair was in a mess, like an abandoned bird's nest, his cross-eye problem seemed to be getting worse, so he used it as an excuse to pretend he didn't see it The man next to his daughter, until Rove took the initiative to say hello, he reluctantly gave him an extremely perfunctory hug.
"Sorry, I forgot your name, Rhodes, Roman——"
"It's Rove." Luna said cheerfully. Xenophilius made a "cut", one eye seemed to fly out of its socket, he squinted at his daughter's husband with the other eye, took the suitcase in Luna's hand silently, and used another One hand led her towards the black door. Rolf Scamander shook his head and followed.
This attitude is considered good.
According to a reporter who sneaked into the wedding and was kicked out, "That old widower in Lovegood seems to have planned to jinx his son-in-law during the wedding ceremony and turn him into a big mouth ball Fish. It’s a pity that it didn’t work out, otherwise it would be possible to compete for the most breaking news of the year——under the witness of relatives and friends such as the Hypes, the Potters, the Weasleys, the Longbottoms, and the Scamanders.”
But Rove knew that this was pure nonsense, at least not entirely true.
In contrast, he believed that Xenophilius originally planned to transform him into the horn of a poison horned beast, because when he was here for the first time as a guest, he accidentally pointed at the horn that Mr. Lovegood sent him. The surprise for his daughter—the gray spiral horn that he bought from a smuggler, it was not a horned snorkel but a horned horned beast. It was extremely dangerous to put at home... He paid the price for his honesty.
The room is a standard circle, like a round pepper shaker.
On the ground floor is the kitchen, with flowers, insects and birds painted on the stove, sink and cupboards. Going up the cast iron spiral staircase, the second floor is a more messy living room and studio. An old-fashioned printing press occupies the best lighting and position, and other places are scattered and full of sundries—see When he came out and his daughter was not at home, Mr. Lovegood was not in the mood to clean up the house at all. Several palm-sized magic lamps in the shape of animals flew around the ceiling. Two staircases lead up from this level, leading to Luna's and Mr. Lovegood's bedrooms respectively.
The three of them spent an afternoon sorting out the travel information. Mr. Lovegood still regarded Rove as air, but he asked Luna everything, cared about everything, and showed all kinds of interesting details that happened on the trip. amazing curiosity.
"Oh, is that so... This seems to verify a certain theory."
Luna's observation ability amazed the two men present, and Rove regretted that these wonderful opinions would only appear in the unreliable magazine "Quieker", together with the flame elves, trembling maggots, Anecdotes such as life on Mars are published together.
The last one doesn't count.
When Mr. Hemp and Ms. Granger returned from Mars, the answer to this question was not important. People fell into a feverish fantasy, obsessed with the topic of possible immigration to alien planets in their lifetime, and it took a long time before they realized The next time Mars will be closest to Earth will be in 2018.
In the following years, six space bases were successively established on the moon.
Luna suddenly raised her head and glanced at the ceiling.
"There are a thousand people above us," she said.
"I'm really worried that those people will fall," Xenophilius said, "but if they can sit on a broomstick..."
In the evening, Mr. Lovegood, who was in a good mood, was about to display his cooking skills. Luna proposed to give Rove a chance to try, "He has all the cooking recipes of the Lovegood family." "Then he can take it." Great bargain." Mr. Lovegood muttered, "No one else has had the opportunity to see it except the garden engineer."
He began to talk about the last time the Hypes came to the house as guests.
"Felix Hep... is a good man, knowledgeable and humorous. I interviewed him about his experience on Mars and his views on the horned snoring beast. He said he had raised two; But his wife has no sense of humor..."
Rove was busy in the downstairs kitchen for a while, poking his head out from under the cast iron stairs, Luna asked him with eyes. "A few seasonings are missing, but I think they can be found nearby." Rove said confidently.
After dinner, Mr. Lovegood's attitude towards Rove improved a lot. He said vaguely: "I tasted the food made by Pandora. After so many years, it may be an illusion..."
"Mother built the vegetable garden by herself." Luna said in a daze.
Early the next morning, Luna and Rove arrived at the headquarters of the Daily Prophet. Both of them had contributed articles to the Daily Prophet, but later Luna completely fell into the "family business", while Rove hoped that, like his grandfather, more people would pay attention to the survival of magical animals.
Coming out of the editor's office, the two ran into a person in the hallway—Rita Skeeter, a journalist who loved to write libelous articles.
Rita Skeeter looked at the two over her jewel-encrusted square glasses, "Let me see... Luna Lovegood, Rolf Scamander, newcomers to Magizoology, There was an excellent cooperation before the marriage...the last wedding was too hasty, and I haven't had time to congratulate the two of you."
"That's because you came here uninvited and were expelled." Rove said seriously.
"Materials are hard to come by." Skeeter waved his hand, "There are so many big names, of course I have to find a way to get in. The last time I had this opportunity was two years ago, but I didn't dare to make small moves that time... I heard Is it?"
"What?" Rove asked in amazement.
"The big scene I've been looking forward to has been so boring in recent years." Skeeter's face flushed slightly, and his long nails pierced the crocodile leather bag in his hand.
"The Quidditch World Cup," Luna said suddenly.
Skeeter glanced at her, "That's right, in July 2010, that is, the 426th Quidditch World Cup was held on the floating island. But I dug up even bigger news, it will definitely be shocking Everyone's eyeballs are more exciting than Felix Haip marrying his own student." She deliberately lowered her voice in the last sentence, and looked around the corridor furtively after speaking, as if afraid of being heard, she warned: "I'm only saying this here."
"Is there anything you can't say?" Luna asked curiously.
Rove tugged on his wife's sleeve, Rita Skeeter snorted twice, turned her sharp eyes around her, landed on the food box in Luna's hand, and provocatively said: " To me, Luna Lovegood's husband must first have an iron stomach. According to reliable information I have obtained, she was nicknamed "Mad Girl" when she was in school, and she was happy to feed horsemen and eight eyes Giant spider."
"This is false news," Rolf Scamander stood up, embraced his wife like a man, and said seriously: "Luna didn't show any special interest in acromantula, and , I cook most of the time. Do you want to know the trick?"
Rita Skeeter stared at him without speaking.
"There are only a few special spices that need to be prepared. I discovered it when we first met, because I also like it."
Rita Skeeter creaked away on her high heels, looking very angry. A smile appeared on Rove Scamander's face, he looked down at his wife, and found that she was also looking at him, her eyes were straight without blinking.
"So mom puts spices in it when she cooks?" Luna asked, "Dad tried many times, but it didn't work."
"I guessed it. I saw it in the garden when I visited. Your family is also very tolerant of weeds." Rolf Scamander said. He stared at the pair of slightly protruding light silver-white pupils, and asked softly, "Luna? Has anyone ever told you that your eyes are beautiful?"
"Yes!" Luna said affirmatively, "Dad, Mom, Ginny, Firenze, Vanite, Sandora, Teresa..."
"Wait, who is the last name?"
"They are all horsemen."
Rove choked, and suddenly felt Rita Skeeter's feeling.
"You can praise my hair." Luna said understandingly, Rove glanced at his wife's disheveled, dirty golden hair, and couldn't help persuading: "Honey, I think you'd better take care of it My own hair, just like at the wedding, looks beautiful, like flowing gold... Of course, don't want that dress!"
"Which one?"
"The one with the rainbow, sequins, and silver unicorn horn headpiece."
"But I like it very much~IndoMTL.com~ Luna said with some distress.
"Hey, you can wear it at home, but if it's a particularly grand occasion..." Rove said after deliberation. Seeing his wife's eyes wandering, he felt nervous for a while, the Quidditch World Cup! Tens of millions of people! Merlin! Hap! He hastened to speak:
"Honey, I thought of a good idea. We should customize a suit for the opening ceremony of the World Cup."
"Us?"
"...Yes." Rove's expression was very tragic.
Luna immediately smiled, and she said solemnly: "Oh, you can dress more formally—according to the eyes of ordinary people, yes, that's it."
"No need, I've made up my mind!"
The two walked out of the headquarters building of the "Daily Prophet" holding hands.
"Let's go back to school sometime." Rove's voice said.
"Okay, I miss that."
"Wear the sorting hat again, I think I have the potential of Gryffindor..."
