Chapter 204
As soon as Luke said this, both Newt and Rove were stunned.
Newt looked at Luke in surprise, with a hint of bewilderment in his expression.Rove frowned at Luke, then glanced at Heidi again, with a thoughtful expression.
Heidi, on the other hand, looked at the boy with particularly good-looking eyes, frowned and asked, "Do you know me?"
"Your breath is quite familiar."
Luke said frankly: "We just finished dealing with Meade, and he looks very worried about you."
After Luke said the name of 'Mead', Heidi's face changed obviously.Some nostalgia and distress, but correspondingly, there is also a little doubt and misgiving.
Looking at Heidi's complex expression, Luke smiled and said, "Of course, I can understand your concerns. It's normal for you not to believe any of them..."
As he said that, Luke glanced at Newt not far away, and then said with a playful smile: "But I didn't expect you to trust humans."
"After all, this time, humans were also involved in your kidnapping."
"I'm not one of those bigots who thinks there's no one good person in a race."
Heidi glanced at the active young man who had occupied everything in the room since he entered the door.The first impression of him is supposed to be bad.But when his tone matched that face, it was hard to bring up the feeling of disgust.
This boy is really handsome, and has a lazy noble air.Such people are fairly common in the palaces of the Deep Sea Empire.Members of the royal family who have little ambition often develop such a temperament.
This is not an inborn nobility, but a kind of aura gradually developed from long-term pampering and dominating others at will.
Heidi can also assume such a gesture if necessary.only……
"I don't like your slouchy attitude. Be more formal."
As she spoke, she took off a colorful fish scale from her hair.The halo flashed, and she turned into a mermaid.And the moment she turned into a mermaid, that unspeakable charm appeared on her again.
At this moment, Heidi was like a ray of sunshine piercing into the deep sea from the sky.Everyone can see her brilliance, she is so desirable.
Beautiful to the point of awe.
Newt felt absent-minded for a while, and Rove was also a little sluggish, but fortunately, the two experienced it once, so they quickly recovered.
Rove looked at Luke the first time he woke up, and he was looking forward to Luke's performance in front of such a charm.After all, my performance at that time seemed so shameful and unbearable...
but……
"The scale in your hand is interesting..."
Luke looked at the thing with interest in his eyes.He is even more interested in that scale than Heidi over there.
In such a situation, not only Rove was a little surprised, but even Newt, Dumbledore, and even Heidi herself were a little surprised.
"Can you show me that scale?"
Luke still asked with great interest.
Heidi looked at Luke who looked normal, and asked with some doubts, "Don't you feel it?"
So everyone's eyes were on Luke.They also wanted to know Luke's answer.Among them, Rove's gaze was particularly intense.He always has a weird competitive spirit towards this guy who is younger than him, but barely considered his peers.It was a feeling of unwillingness to be left behind.
Luke looked at Heidi's eyes like the ocean reflecting the starry sky, and said with a smile, "Your eyes are beautiful."
Before Heidi could say thank you for the compliment, he went on to say, "But I've seen better-looking eyes."
"Your hair is beautiful, but I have seen hair that is messy but shows a person's hard work."
"Your temperament is also very unique, like a lonely whale in the deep sea."
A faint smile appeared on Luke's face: "But I've seen a girl who looks like a fairy dancing in the forest."
"If I appear to be gaffe, then I'm sorry for the girls I've met, and I'm sorry for the upbringing I've been taught."
"Show yourself calm and calm in front of beautiful ladies, don't lose your composure, this is a lesson that impresses me deeply."
Luke said frankly to everyone.Of course, the former is naturally not the point.If you really want to talk about looks and charm, then Heidi is really prettier than Taylor, Hermione, and Luna.
After all, although the three girls are outstanding, they are not as beautiful as a work of art like Heidi.
However, during Luke's training, maintaining his demeanor in front of women is the most important lesson.You can show interest in a woman, but you can't express yourself with a gaffe.
Reserved, this is a matter of scale.
"All in all." Luke leaned back in his chair. "To me, ma'am, you're charming enough to move me, but not enough to make me forget my education. I don't even mind if the vibe is right." Dance with you. It's a pity..."
He knocked on the table and said, "This occasion is not suitable for social activities."
"So, show me that scale, and let's talk about who you are, your situation, and... how I can help."
Luke smiled like April sunshine.
"After all, helping a lady in distress is also a virtue that nobles should have."
Newt's expression was a little complicated.He knew what Luke meant by 'education'.There are not many people who can thoroughly learn that whole set of things.
There are not many that can be practiced after learning.
Rove was a little puzzled, and had the same feeling in his heart.
Some gaps seem to have been opened a long time ago.
Only Dumbledore felt nothing.He was just a little emotional.
Luke can always surprise people in unexpected places.
"Of course, it must be a beautiful lady in trouble, right?"
Heidi was not affected at all.It was indeed the first time she had seen nobles among humans, but she had seen a lot of nobles from the Deep Sea Empire.She is also very clear about how the rules among these nobles have been distorted by unspoken rules.
For example, what beautiful story happened between the beautiful lady in distress and the noble who helped her seems to be a normal thing, and it can even add luster to this story and make people yearn for it.
"No, don't get me wrong, I didn't mean that."
Seeing Heidi's obviously misunderstood expression, he shook his head and said, "I'm serious."
Heidi didn't bother to listen anymore.
"I'll just see how you do it. I've seen too many people who speak nice words."
While speaking, she didn't stay idle, and put the colorful scale in her hand in front of Luke.
"If you're interested, take a good look."
Luke didn't care either. He finally saw another baby that interested him, so he naturally held it tightly in his hands.
"This scale..." Luke put the beautiful scale in his hand and looked at it repeatedly. "Is it related to the story of the Little Mermaid in the human legend?"
When Heidi heard this, she glanced at Luke, and said, "You're very smart. I've also heard the legend about humans."
"Although it is the mermaid version."
Luke looked forward to what to say later, but Heidi didn't seem to have the idea of telling this story, so he could only say a little disappointed: "It's just a reasonable speculation. The story inside, wait until you want to tell me, then you can tell me the story." tell me."
Heidi nodded, and said, "Then let's talk about the topic at the beginning."
"You said you could find an antidote?"
Luke was not in a hurry now, and returned the scales in his hand to Heidi, and said with a smile: "We can talk about this later. Now, I am a guest, and you are also a guest."
After speaking, he looked towards Newt, stood up and said, "Mr. Scamander, can we have dinner? Seriously, I have been looking forward to the meal you cooked by yourself for a long time. Professor Dumbledore is in Before you came, you told me a lot about the deliciousness of your cooking."
Newt looked at Heidi, who had a somewhat dissatisfied face, but still said to Luke, "He's just overrated. It's not that good. It's just that I had to learn to cook some food when I was in the wild all these years."
Rove behind him had already walked towards the kitchen, waved his wand, and plates of meals floated in the air and flew towards the table over there.
Luke looked at Heidi, smiled and said, "You're hungry too."
Heidi didn't deny Luke's words, but put the scale back in her hair, and stretched out her hand to Luke.
She stared into Luke's eyes and said seriously: "My name is Heidi, Heidi Atlantis. The princess of the Deep Sea Empire."
Luke froze for a moment, then held out his hand.
"Luke Gunter, the head of the Gunter family."
And when Luke was about to hold her hand, the upright hand suddenly turned back up and drooped naturally.
Luke paused and took Heidi's hand.Then he gently touched Heidi's hand with the tip of his nose.
After that, he let go of his hand and said with a smile, "I don't like it very much, and I'm not very used to kissing hands. I didn't expect the etiquette of the Deep Sea Empire to have so much in common with human beings."
"So this etiquette is no longer popular in human communication?"
Heidi's face remained unchanged: "Sorry, I have learned from my impression that this is the only etiquette for human beings to express intimacy."
"I don't think you will like the etiquette of the Deep Sea Empire."
Luke smiled: "Maybe."
After that, the two stopped talking, and everyone sat in their seats.
After a while, all the dishes were served.A table of all kinds of food, the ingredients are very unique, not necessarily precious, but definitely special.
"I also thought about whether to prepare a few dishes that you are used to." Newt said to Luke, "But I thought about it, since I am here as a guest, I should still show you our characteristics."
Newt focused his attention on those dishes, and said: "Those are the foods we have studied in the wild for so many years. You know, because we are often in the wild, it means that if we don't want to eat dry food, we have to eat it. Get something to eat according to local conditions."
"So over the years, we have also found a lot of special ingredients, so we have these dishes."
"Hope you like it."
…………
Three tours of wine, five flavors of food... This is an exaggeration.In fact, the food was really good, and Luke and Dumbledore enjoyed their meal.
Rove looked at Luke and Heidi, what aristocratic temperament these two people showed.When they were eating just now, the two of them looked quite reserved, but their eating speed was not slower than him at all.
You know, his eating speed was practiced in the wild.In that place, you don't have to hurry up to eat, or you may encounter some dangers, and you may miss some wonderful pictures.
"Tell me, you have a way to get the so-called antidote."
Heidi asked seriously.
Rove and Newt also looked at Luke.They don't wonder if Luke has such ability, they want to know what Luke can do.
"Actually, it shouldn't be difficult." Luke said frankly, "I believe that people from the Skye family should also be interested in me. If it is a normal way, I will choose to buy a copy directly."
Luke smiled: "As long as my bid is high enough, I shouldn't refuse."
The face is there, even under normal circumstances, Luke can buy it by himself.
In other words, it can be obtained from other families after all.
After all, everyone has been with each other for so many years, so there must be some precautions.
Heidi nodded, expressing her approval of Luke's statement.This kind of method is not a solution, but it is very useful.
Luke looked at Newt, who was on the side, and took out a photo from his arms. Under Newt's puzzled eyes, he handed the photo to Newt, and said, "Actually, follow Dumbledore this time." I also have some selfish intentions when I come with the professor."
Newt took the photo and saw a colorful little snake lying lazily on the table.
Snakes are beautiful and don't look like anything special.
And Luke being able to show him this thing shows that this snake is definitely not simple.
"Any questions?"
Newt asked curiously.
He knew the Gaunt family.This family has always been a leader in the study of magical animals.It can even be said to be strong.
Although their research results are not made public.The means of research are not completely conventional.But everyone is still very interested in their research results.
"This should be a basilisk."
Luke said seriously.
"Isn't that... true?"
Rove subconsciously wanted to refute.But looking at Luke's serious expression, he couldn't say those suspicious words after all.
Luke wanted to explain, but before he could, Newt spoke.
"It's possible, Luke, Rove..."
His expression was a little dignified.
