Harry Potter’s Book of Sin
Chapter 565: Stupid or Smart?
The genius remembers the address of this site in a second: (Apex Chinese), the fastest update! No advertisements! In terms of relationship, Mrs. Maxim is definitely among all the wizards present, except for the old housekeeper Edward and the late Nicole The one with whom M. Flamel was most intimately associated. Based on this alone, it seems inevitable that everyone will secretly suspect that Mrs. Maxim is just and impartial on the surface, but she covets the inheritance behind her back.
But in this magical world, probably no one knows about Mrs. Maxim's character. Since she became the headmistress of Beauxbatons, no matter what she does, she puts the school and students first. In addition, she is dignified and fair, and there are many wizards who admire this female headmistress from the bottom of their hearts.
What's more, this time, in order to avoid suspicion, Mrs. Maxim has long stated her position on this heritage disclosure incident. Because of this, she even vacated the right to the venue of the alchemy competition for everyone.
To be honest, if she hadn't taken the initiative to retreat, based on the fact that this is Mr. Nicole Flamel's alma mater, the venue for the competition would be Beauxbaton.
Such a world-class event, many small and medium-sized powers can't even think about it.
However, I'm afraid that the appearance that Mrs. Maxim has always shown is an illusion. When this huge benefit is in front of her eyes, it may be the time for her to show her true face. If you think about it, you will understand that in this world, are there few such long-planned accidents?
In the corridor, as the rumors about Mrs. Maxim gradually spread, the eyes of some people began to look different.
It can be seen from here that many strengths are clearly divided into two factions.
More than half of the wizards chose to calmly be a bystander, because none of their forces planned to wade into this muddy water that was deliberately disturbed by people; while the remaining small number of wizards chose to take advantage of the trend In order to try to muddy the water, so that their forces can find considerable benefits in the chaos.
Maca scanned the crowd in a timely manner, and immediately came to a conclusion.
Among the wizards present, those who chose to watch were either insufficient in strength or more inclined to hold the alchemy competition; and those who chose to continue to increase the chaos were the groups who wanted to make trouble in the future.
There were only a very small number of guys who hadn't figured out the situation. They were all looking around suspiciously, and they even glanced at Madame Maxime from time to time, with different expressions for a while.
With a little analysis, he can know in advance which forces need his attention. Why not do such a good thing?
When Maca quickly looked away and looked at Mrs. Maxim beside her, the other party just happened to glance at him. It means that Maca is more or less understandable.
It didn't matter that she was suspected, because she didn't intend to get too involved in this matter. After deciding on the ownership of the competition venue, she can wipe out all these forces in Beauxbaton.
The key point is that some people don't want this alchemy competition to be held in a stable manner right now. If it is possible, the other party will probably use all means to delay it, or even destroy it altogether.
After all, there are too many surprises in a game. Which side will benefit in the end, no one dares to say that they will have the last laugh before the results of the competition come out.
Maybe some people don't want the inheritance to be made public, Madame Maxime said suddenly, and she said calmly, But I still think that since Mr. Flamel intends to entrust the inheritance to the world, the magic circles of all countries Everyone should be eligible to participate. It’s okay for people to doubt me, I just want everyone to understand that this precious legacy belongs to everyone.”
What she meant was clear enough for any wizard shrewd enough to understand.
Yes, if it is used by some caring people, perhaps most of the forces can get the result of the distribution ratio.
will cease to exist.
These words of hers were obviously addressed to those forces that were not strong enough to compete with others. If more than half of the small and medium-sized forces can unite and twist into one rope, even a few big forces will have to weigh it carefully.
In short, what she wants to convey is just one sentence: If you don't want to lose any benefits in the end, then support the holding of the Alchemy Competition!
Hearing Mrs. Maxim's quick response, Maca couldn't help nodding secretly—the headmistress didn't spend so many years in vain.
Not long after, while everyone was watching and waiting, the French Ministry of Magic finally sent someone over.
Unlike the British wizarding world, Beauxbaton School of Wizardry and the French Ministry of Magic have a very good relationship, and they often support each other when dealing with various matters. Regarding this murder case, although the current situation is still a little sensitive, but because there is nothing unspeakable secret between the two, the handling is extremely smooth.
Because this incident is of great importance, the minister of the French Ministry of Magic came in person.
Maca saw that it was a thin and tall middle-aged male wizard. He dresses rather plainly, delicately but not luxuriously, and seems to be a down-to-earth figure.
Along with him, there is also a French Auror team. Seeing that their behavior is strictly in accordance with the rules, it is quite in tune with that Mr. Minister's style.
A group of people from the Ministry of Magic arrived in unison, and after exchanging pleasantries with Mrs. Maxime, they immediately started to work. The on-site investigation of the on-site investigation, the inquiry and evidence collection of the inquiry and evidence collection are well-organized and extremely efficient.
Compared with them, the British Ministry of Magic, which has been producing some moths in recent years, pales in comparison.
Only about ten minutes later, except for the wizard who found the corpse at the scene, everyone else was persuaded to disperse by the minister. Of course, Maca was also among the leaving crowd, and it just so happened that it was time for breakfast, so he took Fanny all the way to Beauxbaton's auditorium.
Along the way, many people were whispering, talking about the rumors that suddenly appeared just now.
Although Mrs. Maxim handled it well just now, the situation got worse without being on the spot. But Maca knew that the guy who disturbed the water had achieved his desired goal, and some kind of bad influence would inevitably spread gradually in the next few days.
Whether the holding of the Alchemy Contest was a long-term success or a failure, it is really hard to say at this moment.
...
Leaving aside the fact that the haze on Maca's side was gradually deepening, Harry at this moment was worrying about his date with Ginny.
He didn't expect that the old man Slughorn seemed to be easy to talk to, but when he asked obliquely whether he could reduce the homework burden on Valentine's Day, the other party decisively expressed regret.
Slughorn was a professor, and he'd been there a long time in the past before quitting the job. He is often a bit out of touch with what a professor must uphold, but he still holds true principles.
This bald old man likes promising young wizards, and takes collecting outstanding students as his hobby, and has been walking on a road of no return to collecting. But to be honest, as a professor, he is still very reliable.
Harry's bad idea failed, and he gradually calmed down as he walked in the corridor.
In fact, since he hadn't noticed the relationship between Ginny's mind in the past, now when he was touched by Ginny's understanding, he really wanted to give her a compensation. And dating in Hogsmeade Village was the most suitable compensation method he could think of right now.
It's a pity that a fifth grader's studies are still quite heavy, and the exam is just around the corner, so he probably can't leave a lot of homework behind and go on a date. Maybe he didn't care, but it was very likely that Ginny would disagree with him. In that case, his purpose of making compensation to the other party would be greatly compromised.
At this point, he has only one choice - hurry up with homework the night before Valentine's Day!
Harry made up his mind with a bitter face, and walked quickly into the auditorium. Under the curious eyes of Ron and Hermione, he sat down at the Gryffindor table with a sad face.
Harry, what the hell have you been doing?
As soon as he sat down, Ron next to him asked in a low voice. Harry's hasty back and forth in the common room earlier had generated tons of curiosity in him.
...I went to see Professor Slughorn. Harry didn't want to say it at first, but when he saw Ginny secretly looking at him from the corner of his eye, he couldn't help but say it mouth.
Slughorn? Ron asked puzzled, Don't you hate that bald man? Why did you take the initiative to deliver it to your door this time?
Hermione, who was sitting opposite, was obviously also very strange. When Ron asked a question, she pricked up her ears and listened. Although she was doing her daily morning reading with a copy of the Daily Prophet in her hand, she could see that her mood was not in the articles above.
I'm going to... Harry looked a little annoyed, I'm going to see if he can give me less homework. You know, the homework in Potions class has always been big!
what?
Before Ron could express his surprise, Hermione across the table had put the newspaper down abruptly and looked at Harry as if she were looking at a Flobberworm.
Harry, have you lost your mind? She asked incredulously, What were you thinking?
No, I didn't lose it— Harry quickly waved his hands, I mean, it's just homework for Valentine's Day. I'm going to Hogsmeade with Ginny... so much homework can't be done The sky is with her, isn't it?
Oh, Hermione was startled for a moment, and then said in astonishment, When did you become smart? Mobile phone users please browse and read, for a better reading experience.
