Harry Potter and the Rise of the Ordinary Person Chapter 46:
As the twins said, Lovegood’s Burrow is really not far away. They rode broomsticks and flew to the top of a hill behind the Burrow. Where is the strange one? The house points straight to the sky. Behind the house, a huge black cylinder with a terrible moon hangs under the afternoon sky, looking like a huge chess piece! "
"We are here." One of the twins said, "This is the house."
"Oh my God! This house is like a giant chess!" Ron exclaimed.
A few people landed at the door of the house, only to see three self-painted markers fixed on a collapsed door. The first one reads: Singing the opposite, editor, Xie Lovegood. The second one says: Pick your own sprites. The third said, don't try to drive plums. They slowly opened the creaking door, and a z-shaped path leading to the front door was covered with all kinds of weird plants, including a bush covered with carrot-like fruits. Two old hawthorn trees were swaying in the wind, and the bare branches were hung with heavy berry-like red fruits. Bead-shaped sprouts densely covered them, standing on both sides of the front door like sentinels. A flat-headed owl with an eagle-like head stood on a branch and looked at them.
" It’s weird here, I didn’t expect Luna to live in this kind of place." Ginny said, "No wonder she is always so strange."
"Luna is the daughter of Xenofilius." One of the twins introduced. "In the past, she would occasionally play with Ginny near the Burrow, but I heard that something happened in her house later, and then she was hardly seen near the Burrow."
" But there is one thing Ginny said right. That girl is really weird, to be precise, their family is weird!" said another of the twins.
Fred or George (Joe couldn't tell the twins) knocked three times on the heavy black door, which was covered with nails and decorated with an eagle-shaped knocker.
Just ten seconds later, the door opened suddenly, and there was a tall man standing in front of them. He had a pair of slender, cross-eyed eyes and white hair that was shoulder-to-shoulder like cotton candy.
"Fred, George, I knew it was you." He said with a smile.
"I'm Fred and I'm George." The twins started playing tricks.
"Don't use this set. I swear that even your mother can't tell you." He looked at George and said, "Are these your younger brothers and sisters?" Then he pointed to Joe and said, "This is you. Friends!"
"Yes." The twins replied, "This is our sister Ginny and brother Ron." Then they pointed to Joe and said, "I would like to introduce you to you! This is Joe, and Ron. Grade, I really want to see you." Then they turned to Joe and said, "This is Mr. Xenofilius Lovegood, you know the editor-in-chief of "The Devil"."
"Hello, Mr. Lovegood," Joe stretched out his hand, "I'm Joe, Joe Goul. I like your "Singing and Singing"
"Thank you!" Xenofilius shook hands with Joe politely and said, "Since Fred and George brought it, it is the guest. Welcome to Lovegood's house."
Everyone entered the house, and now they are standing in a strange kitchen. The room was a standard round shape, which made him feel like he had walked into a huge can of pepper. Everything is curved in order to match the walls-stove, sink, cupboard-and everything is painted with flowers, insects and birds in bright tones. "Strange aesthetics!" Joe exclaimed.
"Thank you for your compliment! Mr. Goul. People usually don’t understand, they think it’s very..."
"Just call me Joe! Everyone has his own aesthetics, there is no need to change the opinions of others, right?"
"Wise eyes, Joe. Few people would think that way!" Xenofilius seemed to be a little excited because he met someone he liked. "You must be a Ravenclaw!"
"It's a pity that he is a Gryffindor!" one of the twins interrupted.
"It's a shame!" Xenofilius seemed to be worried because he met like-minded people who were not in Ravenclaw. "You should belong to Ravenclaw."
"It doesn't matter, is it! Sir" Joe said, "There is no fixed password on the door knocker of the Ravenclaw common room. You can enter as long as you can answer the questions correctly, right?"
"Haha!" Xenofilius laughed, and he patted Joe on the shoulder friendly and said: "I kind of understand why you are a Gryffindor! But I like it!"
"Luna is fishing outside and will be back in a while." As soon as the voice fell, he added: "They should have introduced me, Luna, my daughter."
Joe nodded.
"So boys." He paused. "Of course there is this charming lady." Ginny smiled happily. "Are you interested in visiting my studio?"
Everyone naturally nodded in agreement.
He led a group of people to the second floor through a spiral wrought-iron staircase. The room was clamoring and clamoring, and the sound of heavy objects was heard from time to time. "This is my studio." He said with a smile: "Everyone needs to be careful about the harassment inside ~ IndoMTL.com~ and everyone walked in. This room seems to be both a living room and an office, although it is relatively small and standard. The layout looks a bit like a maze. There are piles of books neatly stacked here. There are also some rare models of magical creatures flapping their wings, their mouths making a crackling sound, and they hang from the ceiling.
There is a wooden machine with magic gears inside. It looks like a strange synthesis of a workbench and a shelf. Those sounds are from this machine. After watching it for a while, Joe recognized that this was an old printing press, because it was printing the opposite.
On a messy curved smooth wooden board next to it, there is a beautiful and serious stone statue of a witch, wearing the weirdest headscarf in the world, and things like golden earphones on both sides tilted outwards. A pair of gleaming blue wings was glued to a leather belt in front of his forehead, and a carrot was tied to the other leather belt. Given that she is dressed as strangely as Luna in the original, Joe suspects that this is Luna's dead mother.
"It’s a headset for focused thinking-it can eliminate all kinds of distractions for thinkers, and this," he pointed to the pair of little wings and introduced: "A thinking thruster promotes the sublimation of the mind, and finally, He pointed to the carrot, "Drivable plums can exercise mental endurance."
"It looks avant-garde!" Joe was always curious about these weird things.
"You are a person who knows how to appreciate!" Xenofilius said: "I must tell you about the horned snorer! That thing is great."
