How wizards learn science and technology

Phoebe turned the damp, moldy haystack in the corner of the dungeon into two cushions.

Back to back, with thick blankets and charms, it's not that cold even up here on the windy coast.

But Merlin didn't feel sleepy.

He was indeed very tired, but after going through a torture and being in a dungeon again, Merlin boasted that he was not so relieved enough to close his eyes and fall asleep.He shifted his shoulders, the dried blood and sweat on his shirt sticking to his skin, which was uncomfortable.

"Merlin," Phoebe felt his movement, "are you all right?"

"I am fine."

It seems that Phoebe is also in good spirits.

She and Merlin lay on their backs, and he didn't need to look to know that Phoebe must be curled up, hugging the cushions, like the white cat.

By the way, Merlin remembered, the cat that squeezed in through the crack of the dungeon was as dark as this night.

"Phoebe," so Merlin asked, "your white cat...uh, why did your cat form change?"

Phoebe reluctantly replied: "They thought the white was too conspicuous, so Eggsy dyed it black for me."

Merlin: "..."

Phoebe Lovegood's hair and the white cat's hair are almost a forbidden area. Usually, they are so precious that they can't even touch them. Now in order to save themselves, they are willing to dye them black.

Merlin couldn't help being moved.

Phoebe: "Does the disposable hair dye wash off easily?"

Merlin laughed out loud: "It's easy, if it's inconvenient for you, I can uh... ask Luna to help you."

Thank goodness Merlin hadn't had the whim to bathe the white cat while he was staying at his apartment.

His words made Phoebe quietly relieved, leaning on the body on his back to relax without any trace: "That's good."

"Black looks great too."

"Never."

Phoebe mumbled, as if she had buried her mouth under the blanket.

The heavy blanket moved slightly, and the soft and comfortable woolen fabric felt hard to think that it was originally a handkerchief.Phoebe was so proficient at the Transfiguration Charm that Merlin would never forget that she had said she was proud of it.

However, he would not ignore the worry from Harry Hart: her spell had failed twice.

"You are obviously used to the appearance of the white cat," Merlin said, "Why does the Transformation Curse fail?"

"..."

A strange silence spread.

He obviously planned to explain last time, but was interrupted by Eggsy and Harry.Now Phoebe didn't seem to want to respond anymore, just when Merlin was about to give up the question, the girl behind her suddenly turned around.

Phoebe put her arms around Merlin.

Her palms fell on his chest, and her delicate face rested on his broad back.

The man's muscles tensed unconsciously in surprise, but Phoebe didn't give him a chance to break free.The young girl clung to Merlin tightly, and she could feel the fresh and scorching temperature from her body through the fabric.

"You smell nice, Merlin."

Phoebe let out a satisfied sigh.

"It always makes me feel like I'm at home, and I let my guard down in a daze."

day.

Merlin clenched his fingers.

For a young girl to say such things, to this point, he really felt that he was a sinner among sinners.

What's more, her voice was soft and soft, like countless feathers falling down, and the skin and heart began to itch.Merlin didn't dare to turn his head, he was very afraid of what he might regret if he turned around.

At least it was late at night, and the agents also needed to rest, and I hope no one on the other side of the tracker heard her words.

"Phoebe."

"Ok?"

"Maybe..." Merlin hesitated for a moment, "Forget it."

Perhaps finding a young talent is more worthy of you than entangled with middle-aged men.Merlin is not belittling himself, this is the fact before his eyes.

But he didn't say anything after all.

Phoebe Lovegood wasn't a girl who wouldn't turn back when she was hot-headed—it was, but she was quite sober.

"What are you trying to say?" Phoebe was a little confused.

"Nothing, rest."

Even if this kind of statement is true, saying it is a bit contemptuous of her.

So Merlin chose to give up: "There is still a problem to be solved tomorrow."

The conversation was over, but Merlin didn't really rest.

He was conscious, and Phoebe hugged him, snuggling against the edge of his back.The soft body and the faint fragrance made Merlin's thoughts confused, until it was almost dawn, he began to think about how to get information about Cypher.The deflection of attention finally made drowsiness strike.

Merlin probably slept for about three hours.

Then it was dawn.

Light came in from the window of the dungeon, Merlin lifted the blanket and got up, his eyes fell on Phoebe.

Phoebe curled up into a ball, still holding Merlin's skirt with one hand.Even in the wet, cold and dirty dungeon, staying next to Merlin, she slept extraordinarily soundly.

Then she seemed to feel Merlin's movements, her tightly closed eyes trembled and opened.

"Merlin...?"

There was still a little sleepiness in her voice, but her gray eyes were clear again.Phoebe got up from the blanket.

Merlin: "You gotta hide, Phoebe."

Phoebe's expression suddenly became extremely sad.

But she didn't hesitate.The well-trained Auror straightened her spine almost immediately, and she nodded: "I will hide on the beam, and the Aurors will follow my actions as a signal. Once I show up in front of Cypher, they will stop will arrive immediately."

"Be careful yourself."

"I will."

Speaking of which, Phoebe took out a pen case from the wizard robe and put it in Merlin's hand: "Eggsy asked me to give it to you, he said you know what it is."

Merlin opened the box, and it was a needle similar to adrenaline.

Of course he knows what it is, he is responsible for the research and development of all Kings|man's equipment.Every agent will carry this reagent when performing tasks with risk of exposure, which can reduce pain and make the torture process a little easier.

Eggsy didn't tell Phoebe what the reagent was for.

Merlin thanked him a little, it's better not to let her know about this kind of thing.After all, wizards live in a civilized world where even torture spells are outlawed.

"Thank you." Merlin took out the needle.

Phoebe didn't want a thank you.

Her expression suddenly became a little complicated, and some determination flashed across her delicate face.Just as Merlin figured out what it was, she moved.

Phoebe moved closer to Merlin and planted a kiss on his lips.

It was so fast that he didn't even have time to react.The kiss was very light, and they separated like an electric shock almost the moment their lips met, as if they were afraid that Merlin would avoid her.

Phoebe, who succeeded in stealing the kiss, blushed. She smiled, and then turned into the dyed cat, and slipped out along the crack of the dungeon without looking back.

Merlin: "..."

A parting kiss from a beautiful girl before the mission, this has always been the treatment of field agents, and he did not expect that he would enjoy this honor one day.

He clenched the needle in his hand, and touched his lips with the other hand.

The place where she kissed was faintly hot.
