Chapter 1982: "Good Things"
Delphi is familiar with "Mr. Blois".
That's right, even the "Mr. Blois" in memory is always more or less different from the one in reality. But at the end of the day, Mr. Blois is still Mr. Blois, and there doesn't seem to be any difference in essence.
In the midst of the vague memories that seemed real and taught Delphi that he could no longer tell, Mr. Blois cherished his daughter Willy just as much. But other than that, in the face of other people and other things, he didn't have the same enthusiasm as he did for Willy.
So, when Sarah said that half of the sentence to Willy, and then hesitated to take it back, the clever Delphi was already vaguely aware of what might have happened in Percy's death.
After all, the Weymouth camp was under heavy attack, and most of them could not resist it, so no matter how you think about it, you must have to call for help from the rear; After all, Percy had limited support options under urgency.
However, Delphi and Sarah didn't continue on the topic - they both just looked at each other thoughtfully, and then both pressed the matter for a moment.
Because, Willie was soon already coming over with a teapot and a teacup.
After that, none of the three of them continued to talk about Percy's death, and it was Sarah who took the initiative to revolve the small talk to Willy's favorite plant.
In alchemy, theoretically speaking, everything in the world can be regarded as the material and product of alchemy, and as a living life that is quite compatible with the four elements of alchemy, plants have always been widely studied and used in ancient and modern alchemy.
The second thing Sarah did when she came to Beauxbatons was to find some alchemy materials, which was not just a random reason for her to fool Hermione.
At the same time, Delphi, who had never interjected before, finally took the initiative to participate in this "girls" tea party this time. Even though she didn't know much about herbology or anything like that, it didn't stop the three of them from talking harmoniously together.
Finally, after Willy promised to find Sarah some seeds of flowers and plants, a knock on the door brought the night-down chatter to an end.
“…… Miss, it's time for dinner. ”
Naturally, the old butler was still the old butler who came to call them to dine - although this was only a small matter, it had always been done by the old butler himself, and there were few exceptions.
"Okay, here we go...... Oh, by the way, Miss Hohenheim is with me, you should know, right? ”
"Oh yes, you've heard about it - Madame Maxim told the kitchen to prepare more food!"
Outside the door, the old butler's voice sounded again, and Willy stood up and stretched her hand at Sha.
"As I said, Madame Maxim is a very good person."
"Well, yes!"
Sarah smiled and followed Willy to the door with Delphi.
……
"Mr. Blois, you're here."
Beauxbatons' dining hall isn't as big as Hogwarts' auditorium, but it's still quite spacious because it has a lot of students to accommodate.
And now, because the students have gone home for the holidays, only a few have stayed. When many of the tables were removed, the already large restaurant became even bigger.
Even...... It's somewhat empty.
"Hmm."
Blois nodded to Madame Maxim, who had been waiting here as usual, and then took his seat in the seat where he had been sitting for the past few days.
Seeing that after he sat down, he seemed to have no intention of speaking, and then Maxim said:
"Today I got the kitchen to add some extra dishes."
"Well, that sounds good."
Blois nodded again, and said so, but soon the scene was cold again. Seeing this, Maxim had no choice but to sigh and say after a little pause:
"I heard that Miss Hohenheim came in the evening, and Miss Blois took her to her room for tea and chat...... There's going to be one more guest for dinner here, so I'm going to ask the kitchen to prepare more. ”
And when she said this about Sarah, Mr. Blois frowned slightly, then shook his head, and said:
"Yes, I've heard that too—the girl from the Hohenheim family, an alchemist family, had previously attended Hogwarts for a while, and she had a good relationship with Miss Granger."
"Yes!" Mrs. Maxim said, took a sip of water from her glass, and then added, "It seems that I have a good relationship with Mr. McLean." ”
"McLean......" Blois frowned again at Maxim's mention of Maca, "Indeed, I met this Miss Hohenheim a few times ago at Winchester Cathedral. But she didn't expect that this time she would come back with Miss Granger and the others. ”
Obviously, Maxim wanted to take advantage of Sarah's arrival to bring Percy to Blois again—she hadn't had a chance to talk to him about it since the news of Percy's death had been reported back to Beauxbatons!
However, there is a big gap between Maxime and Blois's understanding of Sarah - the latter is roughly aware of Sarah's strength in alchemy, but Maxim is not so clear. So at this moment, in just a few words, what the two of them are thinking is actually no longer on the same channel.
"All in all, it's a good thing that Miss Hohenheim is back—for you and me."
"Huh?"
This was said by Blois, and as soon as the words came out, Madame Maxim was a little confused.
She had thought that Blois would at least have some headaches for Sarah's arrival, because Blois's approach to Percy's request for help was really not very authentic. But he didn't think about it, but he actually said that it was a "good thing".
"Well, it seems...... That is true. ”
Madame Maxim was puzzled, and vaguely agreed, putting an end to the simple conversation that had been waiting before the meal.
After a while, when she took another sip of water, a slightly messy footsteps finally sounded outside the restaurant.
Not only the three of them, but also more than a dozen Beauxbatons students who remained at the school had already come. And this finally made the somewhat deserted restaurant a little lively.
Of course, with the presence of principals and professors, especially when there are few people now, students will always be a little restrained. On the contrary, the three of them, who were more natural than the students of the school, said this casually to themselves, and sat down at the table of Maxim and Blois very casually.
"Madame Maxim, I should have visited you first, but now Sarah must apologize to you—rude, ma'am."
As soon as she sat down with Willy and Delphi, Sarah immediately stood up again and leaned slightly towards Maxim.
