HP's Foreign Land

Heimdall stayed in Adam Cross's studio for a whole afternoon, until the house elf knocked on the door to inform them that it was time for dinner, and the two left the studio and went to the reception area.

At this time, the sky has entered dusk, and the sunset glow on the meadow is fascinating. At the junction of sky and earth, blue and green, different colors are rendered and sprouted here, pink purple, light blue, rose red, orange yellow, indigo When the gorgeous colors come into the picture, the tall window lattice is like a colorful symphony, moving slowly and changing with the setting sun, until the twilight is all together, the sky is full of stars, and the night covers the earth.

The candles were quickly lit, and these candlesticks quietly surrounded the round table, suspended in mid-air as if solidified, and remained motionless.

After the two sat down, Adam picked up the light-yellow napkin at hand, and a house-elf who looked a little old was staring blankly on the spot while serving the pre-dinner wine for his master. Seeing the table in front of Heimdall petrified and motionless, such a strange scene made Heimdall's heart tense.

Adam touched his hand and said very lightly: "Relax." Then he put a glass of special light pre-dinner wine in front of him as if nothing happened.

Heimdall glanced at him, picked up the clear glass crystal goblet and turned it around against the light, the brilliance refracted on it could almost blind people's eyes.What a luxury!After the evaluation, he took a sip of the wine with a faint fruity aroma.

At the same time, the suddenly silly house-elf suddenly shook off his stiffness, and ran to Heimdall at a speed that didn't match his age, and tore off the napkin he was holding in his hand. Turning upside down on its face, the elf completely ignored it, and flicked through the position of the tableware on the table. It replaced the brocade cushion under the plate with a tablecloth of another color, and repositioned the candlestick so that the light and shadow Highlight the iris border on the oval platter.Not satisfied after all this, he pulled out the drawer of the sideboard and put flowers in it, creating the effect of drooping flowers and branches in the garden.Immediately afterwards, a huge silver tray popped out of the center of the round table, which contained alpine rhododendrons, as white as snowball sugar, and a large tall and delicate lily of the valley, parrot tulips, and gorgeous heather. , White roses... more and more flowers, almost flooding the entire reception area.

Heimdall held the cup and looked at Adam, hoping that the latter could give some targeted hints.

As if feeling that it was almost done, Adam Fang put his chin on his hand and said calmly: "Xina, there are already enough flowers, so much that there is no place to put a wine glass."

The house elf, who was falling into some kind of madness, suddenly trembled all over, and all actions stopped abruptly. It looked down with drooping eyes...

What surprised Heimdall was that Adam was not angry at its inexplicable crazy behavior. Instead, there was a trace of sadness and sympathy in his eyes. He smiled gently at the elf, "See clearly, I am not grandpa, Strulusson Not grandma either."

Hina woke up abruptly, called "Master Adam" in a low voice, and then covered her face with her hands in shame.

Adam still had a good temper, and seemed to have no concern for the house-elf's outrageous behavior, and even had the mood to tease: "When I really propose to Mr. Strulusson, it won't be too late for you to make arrangements. That's all for today."

"And the gemstone ring from the Xianlu store." As if being stimulated by some kind of stimulus, the house elf suddenly raised his face and emphasized loudly: "It must be from the Xianlu store!"

Adam staggered the subject with a calm expression: "Let the kitchen make some brownies."

"Xina is going now..." As she said so, she turned around and squinted her old eyes to look at Heimdall. After a while, the abnormal eagerness replaced the laxity in her eyes again. She grinned and said cheerfully, "Ma'am, the irises are blooming beautifully today, and they are your favorite Bronze Queen. Hina will pick them for you." She disappeared excitedly.

Candlelight was reflected in the golden wine, and the fragrance of flowers lingered in the air.

Adam waved his hand, and the silver plate in the center of the table and the large clump of flowering branches were quickly removed.

"I'm sorry, but I hope it didn't bother you. Since it had been behaving normally before, I thought it was fine."

Heimdall let out a breath, and finally there was a place to put the cup down.

"Xina, that house elf just now, has worked in our family for many years and has a very deep affection for my grandparents. Even after more than three years, she is still unwilling to accept the fact that the two grandparents are no longer alive. , coupled with old age, sometimes my sanity is not very clear.” Adam’s eyes showed a hint of pleading: “If it does something outrageous in the future and offends you, I hope you don’t take it to heart, one thing I can guarantee , it will never hurt you, and I will send it back to my country if necessary."

"It's okay, but I was a little surprised at first." For some reason, Heimdall felt a slight sadness in his heart.

Adam did not remove all the flowers, except for the clump on the dining table that disappeared, and the flowers on the sideboard remained in place quietly blooming in full bloom.It was supposed to be a romantic dining place, but the whole meal was extremely dull, except for the sound of tableware being set aside and colliding, nothing else could be heard at all.

Adam and Heimdall chose to eat what was on the plate in silence without exchanging a word.

After the meal, Adam inquired about the whereabouts of a house elf, Hufflepuff, who came to serve snacks. The elf respectfully told him that Sharpie was writing and studying in his room.

After taking care of the house elf to pay more attention to Xiabby's three meals and sleeping, he directly pushed away the snack plate in front of him and suggested, "How about going for a walk?"

Heimdall touched his stomach and quickly agreed.

***

It was only after Heimdall got out of the tent that he realized how big the difference was between the inside and the outside. After nightfall, the entire competition field seemed to come alive, and players who hadn’t been seen during the day appeared one by one like magic tricks.The prairie is brightly lit like daytime, and the star-like glass lamps hang under the night sky. They are the "street lights" set up by the organizing committee for this competition in advance.The naive and lively little mice jumped up and down among the street lamps, each with a different trajectory, and released dazzling fireworks at will, trampling on the dark curtain playfully in colorful and colorful vertical and horizontal patterns. .

The Adam's stride was long, and Heimdall was quickly left behind.In addition, everything around him was so novel and interesting that he couldn't help but stop and watch. By the time Heimdall found out, he had completely lost Adam's trace.

Heimdall simply lifted his robe and sat on the floor, passively waiting for someone to come to his door.Although this method is a bit stupid and slow to take effect, it is safe and requires no effort.His actions attracted the attention of many passers-by, and Heimdall realized that he was obstructing traffic.After thinking for a while, he took out his wand and threw a magic spell into the sky. With a bang, a green flare exploded in the air, a bright green light flashed, and Durmstrang College appeared in the air. The coat of arms pattern.The school badge stayed in the sky for about ten seconds, and then it turned into smoke and faded away.

What is strange is that the entire playing field exploded at that moment.Booming noises came and went, and the crowd seemed to be boiling.Many eyes surrounded Heimdall, almost drowning him in the sea of ​​eyes.

Almost at the same moment, Adam Klaus squeezed through the wall and came in front of him. He patted Heimdall on the shoulder, gave a thumbs up and said with a smile, "You really are a blockbuster if you don't make a show."

Heimdall felt that the man's actions and tone were a bit inexplicable, and after stuffing the wand back into his robe, he said helplessly, "You're walking so fast, I can't keep up."

Adam stared at him for a while, then hesitated, "The magic you cast just now was for me to see?"

"Of course!" Heimdall said with raised eyebrows, "Are you deliberately bullying me for being small?"

Adam suddenly curled the corners of his mouth inexplicably: "Why the one with the school badge?"

Heimdall replied naturally: "I was the only one who came here in Durmstrang, and I knew it was my act at a glance. I was afraid that the ordinary flares would be mixed with those fireworks and I couldn't see clearly."

At this time, several strange teenagers wearing indigo wizard robes crowded in front of them and greeted Adam one after another. It seemed that they knew each other.Fortunately for Heimdall, these teenagers were talking to Adam in a language they could understand.

After several pleasantries, one of the teenagers suddenly looked at Heimdall by mistake and asked, "Is he a member of your team?"

"Yes." Adam was also unambiguous.

The boy asked again, "Is the declaration just now his masterpiece?"

Adam said calmly, "Didn't you see the school uniform on his body?"

Several teenagers looked at each other, eyes full of expressions that Heimdall could not understand.

"Good luck." After leaving this blessing, the teenagers left in a hurry.

Heimdall was very strange: "Why do they want to bless me?"

Adam raised his eyebrows, and deliberately said in a flat tone, "Because you just announced your championship declaration to all the contestants."

Heimdall was in a daze, looked up at the sky for a long time before regaining his voice: "Just now...that was..."

Adam looked back at him with the usual expression: "Actually, it's nothing, just give yourself an encouragement. Anyway, the ultimate goal of participating is to win the first place. You are the declaration No.1 of this competition."

No wonder the eyes around him were so scorching hot, I dare to feel that he was ashamed to throw it in the international competition.Just when Heimdall blamed himself for his "ignorance", a red and blue ball of light dragged its long tail straight to the sky, with a "plop", the light ball exploded in the sky, densely packed with red and blue lights The spots formed a pattern of stars holding a crown, and the stars danced around in the air, and finally gathered and merged into the huge gemstone in the center of the crown. After that, the entire crown gradually became transparent and disappeared into the black night.

Heimdall glared at him, and the latter retracted his wand without changing his expression, grabbed Heimdall's arm in the increasingly restless atmosphere around him, and walked back to his tent with his head held high.

After returning to the tent, Adam dragged Heimdall straight to the second floor, and pulled Shabby out of the room, who was studying hard.

Because of this, Hufflepuff complained again and again, clung to the book and refused to give in. Finally, he was pushed out of the tent with a lot of force. As soon as he staggered to his feet, he was frightened by the out-of-control commotion outside. jumped.

The sounds of "咻" and "咻" sounded one after another, and all kinds of badges appeared in the night sky.Much more exciting than the fireworks show by the mice.

When Adam saw this scene, he pointed out unceremoniously: "It's all because of your dawdling, and the limelight has been taken away by others. No matter how you look at it, Hufflepuff is better than these guys!"

Shabby was so wronged, can you blame me?You didn't know sooner...

At this time, another flare was fired into the sky, and half of the night was suddenly shrouded in a layer of silvery blue.

"Sana Samuel?" Adam couldn't believe his eyes: "That shabby school still wants to win the championship?!" After he finished picking his nose and eyes, Ye Kong slowly returned to normal, suddenly The uproar that had started gradually subsided.

Heimdall, who had been silent all this time, had a bitter face, and said in a strange way: "Can I go back to my room to rest?"

Only then did Adam react, he quickly said sorry and let go of his arm.

After moving his almost unconscious arm, Heimdall said "good night" weakly, and walked slowly back to the room.He felt very tired today.

Adam didn't stop there any longer, patted Shabby on the shoulder, and turned back to the tent.

Xiabi stood at the entrance of the tent, looked up at the sky for a while, and finally turned around and entered the tent without doing anything.
