199 Scam: Who is the deception? (3000)
"Help. ”
The helpless eyes were cast out by Allen, but none of the people who came together had a sense of help, but gloated with a little envy to watch Allen being dragged towards the door with half-folded arms after a dance.
In the presence of a bunch of guests, it is obviously an extremely rude act to forcibly struggle out, and Alan still doesn't know a few words of German, so he can't say the refusal euphemistically, so he can only be silently half-tied out, waiting to leave the banquet hall and then point fingers and add clumsy language to reject the little overly enthusiastic young lady in front of him.
Unfortunately, Allen's considerations didn't have much effect. The young lady who invited him seemed to be looking for a place that was remote enough to stop on the road at all, and although there were not many guests along the way, Alan couldn't find a chance to break free from the current predicament.
After a long time, the young lady who grabbed Alan finally found a relatively secluded corner and happily pulled Alan over.
Almost as soon as he confirmed that there was no one around, Alan quickly pulled out his arm, and at the same time pulled away a little, and began to explain in the little German he knew—"That, that, I mean, you don't yet-"
The word familiar was stuck, Alan began to gesture with his hand, with a bit of seriousness and helplessness in his expression, and reluctantly expressed that he and the other party were not very familiar with each other, and the current things were developing too fast, he felt that they could simply talk about the scenery or something like that - of course, after chatting, Alan could make the other party angry or make the other party embarrassed and had to give up.
Of course, the more likely thing is that Alan and others can't talk to each other at all, after all, in terms of German, Alan can be regarded as almost without any communication skills.
However, although Alan laid everything out, he didn't expect the next plot development at all.
"My dear brother - I have finally found you. ”
With a little irrepressible enthusiasm and choked up, the girl who had pulled him out looked at him with slightly red eyes, her hands and her hands, a gesture of pleading—in her mouth, it was a slightly accented but not difficult to understand English.
Brother?
Alan was stunned.
What kind of international joke are you making! He had just met the woman in front of him for the first time, why did he drop a sister out of thin air?
However, without waiting for him to make any reply, the voice with a little irrepressible excitement continued to sound, "I know it's abrupt, but I'm really your sister, we haven't given up looking for you all these years......"
——
At the same time as the chattering sound sounded, more than three hundred miles away, the awakened wine was poured into the goblet, and then the crisp sound of the glass clattering.
"Does it really work?" the impatient voice sounded, and even the step of wine tasting was skipped, completely losing the elegance of the aristocracy of the past.
However, everyone present was no better, even if they still didn't get a drop of wine, they could still clearly see the flushing on the faces of the people seated, which was the stimulation brought by the huge number of Galleons.
"It can't be better, he'll take the bait," the thick stack of parchment on the table was pushed away, and there was even a Muggle world of paper mixed in with it, and judging by the handwriting on it that was densely scratched with ink, it was clear that someone had put a lot of effort into it.
"I travel a lot, I had a little sister when I was in an orphanage, and then I picked up another one in the future, and I have an unusually greedy desire for money - you say, such an existence, with an abnormal desire for family affection, how can you miss your real relatives, travel all over the world, do you think it doesn't look like a little boy who is struggling to raise travel expenses and look for his family?" After a somewhat coquettish chuckle, the woman took a sip of red wine elegantly, and her face was full of smug smiles.
"How can we feel deceitful when we send a sister we can rely on, a broken family, a pair of parents who have been searching for him for years but died in an accident during a search?"
——
On the other side, Alan looked helplessly at his sister who fell from the sky - although this is a bit exaggerated, but it did seem to be falling from the sky, not the slightest expectation.
Although it was a little abrupt, he still reluctantly believed in the other party, after all, he couldn't figure out the relationship himself, although it was quite unexpected for such an abrupt arrival of a relative, but if it was true, he couldn't refuse anything, according to the other party's thoughts, after ending the other party's thoughts, he looked at the situation and dealt with it- Anyway, no one should think about interfering in life or anything, and besides, one is in Germany and the other is in England, and they don't see each other every day, so they should be multiple blood friends, anyway, he can't integrate into each other's life circles.
Therefore, Allen's attitude is still quite good, listening to the other party's chatter about all the past, the expression on his face is also surprisingly gentle, waiting for the other party to finish.
"Well," the woman's eyes were slightly red, and her expression was a little happy, "You've grown so tall, I'll take you to your parents' graves to let them see if you're okay—"
"Oh-no," she stopped crying again, but still trying to give Alan a smile, "I forgot to prepare the bouquet, it was too sudden, too sudden, you wait a minute, I'll figure it out, there will be, there will be, I remember there was a decorative bouquet coming, I went to find Owen, he must have prepared more, wait for me, I'll be right away, right away-"
Alan bent down, brushed the ground with his palm, a handful of seeds were sprinkled, and under the effect of magic, they grew and sprouted wildly, and then produced buds, blooming, Alan wiped his fingers, and a large cluster of flowers fell into his hand, which was decorated by him with the wrapping paper he took out of his pocket, and then handed it over to the other party with a look of surprise.
Then, he was embraced, and a few drops of warm liquid landed on the back of his neck.
"It's good, it's good," a hoarse voice rang in Alan's ear, "You've grown up, you've grown up, you've grown up..."
Alan mobilized his arm with difficulty and gently patted the shoulder of the person in front of him, "Okay, okay, I'm here, I'm here." ”
After a long time, the other party finally stopped crying, and avoided Alan to clean the tears on his face with his wand, and then turned around with red and swollen eyes, looking a little excited, "Well, hold on to my arm, I'll take you, they must be very happy." ”
"Well, good. Alan put his hand on it.
——
The familiar vertigo came, and it could be seen that the other party's phantom transformation was not very proficient, and if it weren't for Allen's help, the difficulty of this move would have to be doubled.
Alan casually took the other party by the hand and began to look around.
Well, here - what's going on here?
It's the magic of sealing off space!!
Just when Alan realized that something was wrong, the girl who brought him here was also confused.
"No, no, where is this? Did I make a mistake with my apparition?" she said in a somewhat panicked tone, as if sensing something, she felt a dull gemstone necklace from her neck—the magic on it had apparently just run out, and the entire necklace had been destroyed.
"Wrong? How could it be wrong?"
A somewhat soft voice sounded - from the necklace, but also from afar.
"Of course there is no mistake, thank you, little girl, if it weren't for your excellent performance, I really don't know how to get this shrewd little fellow here. ”
At the same time as the voice sounded, eight figures also surrounded from the surroundings, with a somewhat playful expression, but Alan didn't even have the intention of remembering the other party's face - although the price of the compound decoction is not low, but no one who dares to calculate him can't afford it...
Besides, why find out the identity, he is not a person who holds grudges, he generally likes the kind of revenge on the spot, since the other party has the courage to lock himself here, it means that he is optimistic about the feng shui of this place in advance, so he can only unceremoniously cover the soil.
"Hide behind me, pull out your wand, I'll give you a chance, you get out!" whispered in his ear, and then was pulled behind him with no small amount of force.
"Get out?" said the voice on the necklace with a hint of mockery.
"Little girl, although I thank you for your help, but you have thought too much about him-we are going to make him seriously injured or something, and we have no intention of letting him die at all, but you need to be careful, I still think that the dead are more reliable than the Oblivion Curse. Of course, I'll make sure I won't even have a ghost to be on the safe side, but it will be soon, so don't worry. ”
"Oh, by the way - I forgot to tell you a little story, in order to make the performance more realistic, we didn't use the Dementor Charm, we just linked your brother's memories to him, and by the way, changed the location you thought it was, my magic props are still pretty useful, right?"
With a little giggle, the voice in the necklace came, as if to say something very mundane.
Allen's fingers smeared the necklace, the metal chain was easily cut by magic, and then the entire necklace fell into his hands.
"Really, I've always felt that such a rare condition should not be met, and the effect is too ruthless, it really doesn't apply very much, and you have to satisfy it all for me. Alan shook his head helplessly and said towards the necklace, however, the woman who was still walking towards this side at the moment suddenly felt as if she was being stared at by a pair of eyes.
Then she heard a whispered chant coming from the other end of the necklace.
"Listen, mortals, I'm going to read my cookbook.
How do you pronounce the mantra, oh...... That's right
I'm putting your names in my Black Secret Book,
So,
Feel the first embrace of death,
I envy you,
No more hunger, no more fatigue, no more fear.
Death is a song that everyone will hear,
Life is nothing but a scam,
The truth is what I offer,
At the end of the day, only death remains.
From the moment you first breathe, you have already begun to slowly die,
You will forget to breathe, you will forget love,
Follow my voice, and get out of your body,"
The chanting grew louder and closer, as if ringing in her ears.
A cyan light gradually lit up over her head, and the people around her began to exclaim, but she didn't notice anything at all, only a seductive whisper in her ear.
"Yield, rest in peace, sleep - child. ”
The cyan light shone brightly, and then everything lost its light...
