Chapter 1393: Barrow and Helena
"What chance? I don't see anything strange about this. β
"Lady Ravenclaw personally appointed Barrow to find Helena, and we all know that he has been pursuing her like crazy......"
"yes, the last time he talked to us, he said he was hooked on that woman. Perhaps, Barrow thought that marrying her would have the support of the Ravenclaw family and Professor Gryffindor, he was very ambitious, so he would not care if the woman was really a pure-blood, as long as he had the surname Ravenclaw, as long as Professor Gryffindor admitted that she was his daughter, it was enough, and I heard that Professor Slytherin was also very supportive of this, and with this relationship, Barrow would become the hottest new star. Clive agreed, "Tsk, but Helena rejected her, and it's funny to think that the woman would have eloped with a mudblood." I'm sure Barrow is furious right now, this guy doesn't have a good temper, I can't imagine what would have happened if he had found her. β
"Here's the problem!" Malfoy said quickly, "we all know that Helena had rejected Barrow, and if she had really eloped a year ago, it would have not been a wise decision to send Barrow to her, and it was appointed by Lady Ravenclaw, she could not have made such a mistake." β
"Is there a problem? I have heard that Lady Ravenclaw is sick because of her daughter's departure. Rumor has it that Miss Ravenclaw was very ill because she missed her daughter, and she wanted to see Helena before she died, so she sent Barrow, and we all know that with Barrow's love for Helena and his character, he will not give up until he brings her back. β
"Don't be naΓ―ve, Clive, this is the school's public statement, how have you ever seen that this official statement is true and accurate? "Let me tell you," said Malfoy, "that there is a secret we don't know, and that secret is the key to the disrepute of Lady Ravenclaw." β
"Don't sell it, tell me everything you know, it's just the two of us here!"
"Of course I'll tell you, we're allies!" Malfoy said in a slick tone, "but the stakes are high, and you'd better not tell anyone else, even if it's to the family, and don't use owls, it's easy to leak." β
"I'm not a fool, Malfoy, know what to do!"
"Of course, of course!" said Malfoy, in a low voice, "because we found Madam Ravenclaw's decision suspicious, our family sent for him after Barrow's departure, before he was ready to leave France......
"You've sent someone after Barrow? He's not easy to deal with. β
"Compared to the four founders of Hogwarts, it's nothing at all. "About three months ago, our man and Barrow had a friendly conversation in the Orleans area, and he told everything he knew, including that he was going to set out in the direction of Greece to find Helena, that she was seen going there, and ......."
"Hmph, it's worthy of the Malfoy family, aren't you afraid that the professors will know about it if you do this?"
"Don't worry, he won't say it, besides, since we have made a move, Barrow and Helena will definitely not come back, I think it is perfect for the two of them to end with the martyrdom of both of them, since they can't get it, then destroy it, which is very in line with Barrow's character. β
Clive didn't reply, just let out an uncomfortable-sounding sneer.
Evan was concentrating, and the conversation between the two men was really getting more and more interesting.
As the Ghost in residence at Slytherin House and Ravenclaw House, Barrow the Bloody and Lady Grey (Helena Ravenclaw) are very popular at Hogwarts, and the students know both of them.
Of course, very few people have communicated with them.
Ms. Gray often stayed on the Ravenclaw Tower, rarely coming down except for the opening party, and was reluctant to speak to the students.
She is a haughty and shy ghost who is only accessible to the students of Ravenclaw House.
Not to mention Barrot the Bloody, who often sits at the Slytherin table, but he seems to have deliberately come out to be intimidating.
Always shackled and bloodstained, Barrow stared at a place with vacant eyes and never spoke.
Both the students and the ghosts are afraid of him, including Peeves, who is not afraid of the sky and the earth.
Think about it, with such a guy sitting next to you, can you still eat?
This was one of the things that Harry and Ron made fun of Draco Malfoy, and they were happy to see Malfoy unlucky.
Whether it's looks or rumors, Barrow the Bloody Man is a ghost with a bad name.
But in reality, as a ghost, Barrow the Bloody Man spends most of his time in a state of unconsciousness.
Don't say it's scary, he can't even communicate normally, it looks very abnormal.
Evan thought that he had become like this, mainly because of the stimulation after killing Helena with his own hands, and the deep sense of guilt, two strong emotions superimposed on him, which made him still so abnormal after becoming a ghost.
Now I know that there are other reasons for not being prepared.
Listen to the Malfoy ancestor outside the door, a friendly conversation between the wizard sent by their family and Barrow, who tells all the secrets he knows to the sinister and cunning Malfoy, and then the ambitious and gifted wizard chooses to die with the woman he loves out of anger and jealousy......
Anyway, it's really a wonderful script.
Since the ancestor of the Malfoy family outside the door said so, then they must have used some method to control Barrow.
Is it a Imperius curse?!
Or is it some other soul magic, or maybe it's a potion?!
Considering that Rowena Ravenclaw is proficient in soul magic, and Salazar Slytherin is very good at potions, the Malfoy family should not do it so obviously, if this kind of thing is found out later, it is not a joke, they should have used perfect magic, or verbal inducement, which is the safest.
It's a pity that this is a three-month thing, and it's probably too late to stop it now!
"I'm starting to get interested in your intel now, Malfoy, tell me what you know from Barrow?"
"It's not a lot, but it's critical enough. "This is news that even the other three professors don't know, that Helena stole Lady Ravenclaw's crown before she left!
After he said this, there was a long silence outside the door, and there was no sound at all......
