บท 14: Defending Her Catch
Crackling, nutritious ~
The flames burned the dead branches and made a crackling sound. The fat fish juice dripped onto the red stones, making them tingle.
The branch by the lake was actually not very suitable as a source of fire for barbecue because the smoke it raises will be more suffocating than the other sources of fire, and the thick smoke will inevitably affect the flavor of some grilled fish.
However, Elena crouched on the ground and turned the fish on the grill attentively, obviously not caring about these insignificant little flaws.
"Wow, this is really beautiful."
Elena licked her lips, her little nose twitched, and watched as the grilled fish in her hands devoured it.
The skin of the white and tender fish had been baked to a golden yellow color. Due to the fishing ban in Loch Lomond, the fish in the lake are significantly fatter than those sold in the market. Jin Cancan's fish oil slowly dripped from the fish's cracked belly, making people unable to resist the movement of their index finger.
"It smells so good that I almost drooled. However, one last step is missing."
She carefully looked at the golden fish that had been roasted, and Elena tried to suppress the idea of biting into it directly.
The girl happily picked up the salt and pepper shakers placed next to the pile of stones, quickly sprinkled them over the fragrant grilled Hungarian fish, and then took a small oil brush and spread it all over the fish to ensure the flavor was as even as possible.
"Hey, are you done yet? Let's eat!"
Elena rubbed her hands contentedly, took the grilled fish off the fire, closed her eyes, and breathed in the fragrant aroma of the roasted fish, swaying her head intoxicatingly from side to side. She opened her small mouth and couldn't wait to bite into it.
At that moment, Elena vaguely heard the slightly familiar voice of an adult woman next to her and felt her right hand, which was holding the barbecue skewer, suddenly empty.
"Grilled fish flying!"
Ooo... Oh, eh?!
She bit at the air, confused, her hand was empty, and even the iron skewer with a fish on it had disappeared without a trace. Not far away, right in front of her to the right, Professor McGonagall, dressed in a plaid cloak, held her wand in one hand and pinched a roasted fish that was still sizzling in the other.
.................
"My fish..." The little silver-haired girl looked bewildered, her eyes moved back and forth between Professor McGonagall and her hands, and finally pondered over what had just happened.
Her grilled fish had been snatched by Professor McGonagall using a flying charm.
There are people in this world who use magic to steal food! Would a noble wizard really use magic to snatch grilled fish from a Muggle girl?
"Thief! Give me back my fish! I caught it myself, and then I worked hard for over ten minutes before roasting it!"
The delicate face of Elena instantly blushed, she stood up angrily and flew towards Professor McGonagall to reclaim her work.
Pia 叽...
Before taking two steps, Elena felt a tingling in both her legs, and then she inadvertently stepped on her left foot without the awareness of a master and plunged onto the grass by the side of the lake.
"Ouch, it hurts... squatting for so long gave me cramps in my leg."
Elena sat down and carefully pinched her calf with her fingers. A sensation of pain like an electric shock made the little girl sob.
Helplessly maintaining her original posture and not daring to move again, Elena sat on the ground and raised her head, crying with a tearful face, looking angrily at Professor McGonagall, furiously shouting.
"Give it back! What the hell do you want!? I said, I will never go to Hogwarts!"
Old lady? Bah!... forget it... children's worries.
