Penello pointed in the direction where Harry and the others had left. She smirked sarcastically. "It seems that Harry and the others thought that there was something wrong with Lucius and Pency. The Gryffindor planned to use their 'excellent stealth skills' to follow them..."
Allen, who had just communicated with Lucius telepathically, knew that nothing would really happen to the little lions, so he did not ask any more questions. He handed the boxes of goods in his arms to the fat man who came up to greet him. When he saw Penello, he remembered the conversation he had with her before entering the shop. Thinking of her unusual and vague words, he asked with concern, "Is there a conflict between you and the doctor? Why haven't I seen the two of you together recently? "
The fat man, who was holding a pile of goods, heard the question and laughed like a sissy. The Wolf Mother glared at him, forcing him to hide his fat head behind the boxes.
Then, Mother Wolf put her hand on her forehead awkwardly and rubbed her aching forehead a few times.
"What are you guys doing?" Looking at the fat man and the Wolf Mother's reaction, Allen was even more puzzled. Then he noticed that Victor had quietly stood a little further away. Although he was now acting like a serious guard and vigilantly observing the situation, Allen found that he deliberately did not look at the situation here at all.
"She still has some research to do under the umbrella... Well, I think... Hmm... It's just that we don't have the same time..." Penello stammered. Her eyes were drifting, and she did not dare to look at Allen.
Hermione also noticed that the atmosphere was not right. She crossed her arms in front of her chest and thought to herself, "Is it because Penello thinks that the doctor is beautiful and is worried that Allen will like her? She deliberately transferred the doctor away from Allen... No, the doctor just doesn't have the same mission as Penello... Wait! Doesn't the doctor also like a girl... "
Thinking of this, Hermione, who looked at the strange expressions of the Umbrella members around her, suddenly realized something. She widened her eyes and stared at Penello's unnatural expression that had never appeared before and the unnatural blush on his cheeks. She thought of a possibility.
In the face of Allen's concern, Penelope, who felt the strange atmosphere around her, could not speak of her suffering. On such an occasion, especially when Hermione was still present, she really could not say what had happened between her and the doctor. Penello's fingers were intertwined. She could not wait to get on her flying motorcycle immediately.
Hermione looked at Penello's expression and was even more certain of her guess. It was already annoying to be harassed by a wizard she did not like, and being harassed by a beautiful and powerful witch would be even more annoying. Moreover, the doctor was a member of the Umbrella Team. Penello could not use the vicious methods he used on others on her...
Hermione had seen the Wolf Mother's distressed face when she was harassed by the doctor. Miss Know-It-All resisted the urge to cover her mouth and turned her head away. She did not want Penello to see her trying to hold back her laughter. She was different from the fat guy. If the female Aura saw her and misunderstood that she was laughing at her, Penello's reaction would be even worse...
"Allen, I still have a few things I like to buy. I have to wait for Jenny to come back so I can walk around Diagon Alley with her. See you in a few days." Hermione said and walked back to Weasley's Magic Joke Shop, giving Penello a chance to explain everything to Allen in private.
Penello watched Hermione walk into the shop with a smile on her face. She was annoyed that Miss Know-It-All had guessed part of the truth. She then saw Allen's probing eyes and the expressions of the Wolf Mother Team. She felt a little embarrassed and impatient. She blurted out, "It's all Umrich's fault."
This made Allen even more confused. "Isn't Umrich locked up in the mansion? What does what happened between you and the doctor have to do with her?"
"Well … this …" Penello stammered, not daring to look directly into Ellen's eyes. He licked his gorgeous red lips uneasily and twisted his hair that was scattered on both sides of his cheeks behind his ears.
Allen was even more concerned about Penello's abnormal behavior. He looked at the other members of the Umbrella Team and found that they also looked confused. He realized that something was wrong. "What did you and the doctor do to Umrich?"
"Allen, let's go back to the mansion first... I'll take you there." Penello looked at Allen's slightly furrowed brows and serious expression and knew that there was no way to hide it anymore. She then ordered the other members of the Umbrella Team, "You guys stay here and protect Allen."
Then, Allen and Penello quickly moved in front of a gothic building. After going through the complex security measures of the mansion, which were even more complicated than Gringotte's, they went through the gate and passed through the garden.
In front of the gate of the mansion where two giant guards were standing guard, the petite four-eyed girl with short hair and glasses was already waiting to greet her boss. She was notified when Allen and the others arrived and passed through the magical defenses. In order to greet Allen as soon as possible, the four-eyed girl didn't even have time to take off her experimental equipment. She was wearing a white robe and an apron, which were still dripping with blood. Some of the blood had even turned dark brown. The dragon-skin gloves on her hands were still dripping with blood, and there was a piece of nerve from an unknown animal stuck to her wrist.
"Young master." The four-eyed girl bowed to Allen and straightened up, waiting for her boss's orders.
"Take us to Umrich's place and show me around the lab." Allen glanced at the silent Penello and made a request to the four-eyed girl. Then, the group strode forward on the burgundy carpet.
The four-eyed girl led Allen through the arched colonnade and led them straight to the basement. The wooden floor was polished with wax and shined with a spell to prevent insects and moisture. There was a magic crystal lamp on each pillar.
"The rooms on the left are all decorated as living rooms. Mr. Lupin, his werewolf friends, and the wizards who came to experiment with the new medicine occasionally need to stay here. Young master, you know that many experiments can't be completed in a day. " The four-eyed girl casually pushed open an unoccupied door. There was a small sofa, a wizard TV, a tea table, a bed, and some green plants, which gave the basement room a feeling of vitality.
"The room on the right is the first floor's potion lab. Today is the full moon, and the experiments are all related to werewolves. Many of these werewolves also chose to spend this difficult day here. However, Mr. Lupin seems to have a lot of things to do, so he didn't come here. He only received this month's potion a while ago." The four-eyed girl pointed. Through the large transparent glass window, one could see the laboratory staff gently patting the shoulder of a werewolf. This werewolf, who obviously didn't have any desire to attack and had no tendency to lose control, drank a bottle of potion under the staff's pacification.
"Wolfsbane Potion. This potion has no way to stop a werewolf from transforming once a month, but it can limit the transformation process and turn him into a sleepy, ordinary wolf. The deepest fear of the kind werewolves is that they will lose control and go on a killing spree. However, the preparation of the Wolfsbane Potion is very complicated, and the ingredients are also very expensive. In the past, if these werewolves didn't register with the werewolf registration office to receive subsidies, or if they didn't know a kind potion master and frankly admit their true identity as a werewolf, this werewolf would never have the opportunity to try this potion. Therefore, they could only continue to live a lonely wandering life. In fact, except for a few lucky ones, the poverty caused by their werewolf identity and the price of the Wolfsbane Potion made most werewolves not have the opportunity to use this potion before. " The four-eyed girl said as she pulled out a bottle of potion from her waist pouch. The color of the potion was slightly different from the one the werewolf had just consumed.
Allen recognized that it was the old-fashioned Wolfsbane Potion. When he was in the third grade, he had made this potion for Lupin many times. Allen looked at the situation in the laboratory again and praised with some satisfaction, "Your research progress is still not bad. I noticed that the werewolf has completely transformed into a werewolf and not an ordinary wolf. He also maintained enough rationality and didn't seem to lose control of his desire to attack. However, from the point of him taking the potion just now, this potion's effectiveness is not as good as the original Wolfsbane Potion. Does it have to be taken many times to maintain its effectiveness? "
Allen's insight and understanding of potions clearly made this research fanatic very happy. The four-eyed girl was different from her usual emotionless self. Somewhat impatiently, she added on to this research topic, "Young master, you are right. The main goal of this project is to research and improve the original Wolfsbane Potion formula. We have arranged the less dangerous experiments on this floor, using methods that have already been confirmed to be safe through preliminary experiments. There are already a few more mature variations of the formula. Compared to the original Wolfsbane Potion formula, our newly developed Wolfsbane Potion has more flexibility in the time of consumption. Whether it is taken earlier or later, it will still work normally. This is actually the most practical version for ordinary werewolves. You must know that if the original Wolfsbane Potion is taken too early, it will lose its effectiveness by the full moon, or if it is taken too late, the potion will not be fully effective by the full moon.
Although the version used by the werewolf inside is not as good as the original formula in hindering the transformation, they will still transform into a complete werewolf during the full moon. However, this formula allows the werewolf to maintain enough rationality and humanity, and not be devoured by the bloodthirsty and chaotic desire to attack. This even allows them to retain a little of their language ability, although due to the changes in the structure of their mouth, only a few people can say words with short syllables in this state. "
"Your research so far seems to be fruitful." Allen was quite satisfied after hearing the arrangement. "The version with more flexibility in the time of consumption, if it is confirmed that there are no major problems, let Hermione and my aunt, the director of the Magical Creature Management and Control Department, Josephine Harris Harris. We will cooperate with the werewolf registration office that she manages. We don't need to think about making any money from this kind of thing, just treat it as a public service and provide it for those werewolves who want to return to their normal lives and register for free.
