Chapter 1648: Ignorance
The smell of dryness wafted from the streets.
The sun overhead envelops everything, the flags on the rooftops sway in the breeze, and there are even grilled sausages bubbling in the electric oven of the snack bar not far away.
Truth be told, apart from the horror of the silence here because of the sudden absence of people, there doesn't seem to be any other abnormal element that would disturb you.
A sunny afternoon like this should be the most calming everyday scene.
However, it turns out that when one is in the midst of a ubiquitous scene, the more creepy the contrast becomes if one or two things are removed from it that are supposed to exist.
And on top of that, if you add one or two things that should never have appeared at "this time" or "this place", then this strangeness will naturally become more and more impactful.
"I heard...... You want to find me? β
In the dead silence, these words suddenly crept into the ears of Malfoy and the other four, and all four of them tensed.
"Who...... Helbo? Why? β
Malfoy's initial stunnedness passed, and he couldn't help but shout at his surroundings.
"Why are you here now? No, it's not my plan at all, you're supposed to wait until I've got it ready for you! No, it shouldn't be like this......"
From his sudden hysterical appearance, it was obvious that he was completely unacceptable to what was happening.
Of course, without discussing his plan that no one would approve of at all, at least in his assumption, Helmo should have been lured by him to appear.
But now, Helbo's early appearance has completely exceeded his expectations - just imagine, what is more desperate than "his carefully planned plan has not even begun, and it has been directly destroyed by others"?
For Malfoy, who already seemed a little out of his mind, it seemed that even the threat to his life posed by Helpo himself was no longer so important.
But what made Malfoy even more desperate seemed to have just begun.
As Malfoy shouted alone, a tall figure finally stepped out of an alley in front of the four to the left.
It can be seen that the figure was wearing a wide hooded cloak when it appeared.
The hem of the cloak dragged down to the pavement, and even the sunlight that rippled on the street enveloped him, and the depths of the hood where his face should have been were still as dark as a bottomless hollow.
It was only when the hem of the cloak swayed gently as the other party walked towards this side that he could occasionally catch a glimpse of the pair of big feet that were also as black as ink.
"No...... Stay back. β
This time, Pansy was a little panicked - to be honest, she actually wanted to ask "why" as loudly as Malfoy did, why did Helpo appear in front of the four of them at this time?
Is there anything remarkable about the four of them? Is it worth Helpo to come out and meet them?
Seriously, Pansy even thinks that an ordinary young wizard like herself may not even be worth slapping the other party to death.
However, Pansy knew that the cloaked man in front of her, who was strolling towards them, was definitely the despicable Helbo of the ancient dark wizard - the oppression that was almost suffocating at the moment could not be wrong!
It's just that correspondingly, Ens and Alexander, who were standing next to her at this time, were another performance.
Helbo...... Are you Helbo? I warn you that it's better to leave sooner rather than laterβwe've already informed Professor McLean, and he'll show up at any moment! β
The one who could say such a thing at such a time was, of course, Alexander. Assigned to Gryffindor, he does have a distinct lion cub temperament, brave, determined, and a little brainless when it comes to critical moments.
That's right, because of this, Ens beside him couldn't help but stomp on his instep when he heard him say such something similar to a provocation at the other party.
"Shut up!"
Ens tugged Alexander back, and with his other hand he had snuck into the Slytherin staff he had been carrying.
But the next moment he saw the other party walking to Malfoy's side, he was suddenly stunned for a moment, and a stunned expression appeared on his face.
He wasn't surprised by what Helmo had done to Malfoy, on the contrary, he was surprised that Helmo had done nothing.
You know, the Malfoy guy probably couldn't help but curse Helmo at this point because he couldn't let go. However, Helmau not only did not act out of anger, but also ignored Malfoy, who was speaking disrespectfully there.
"Why! It's me standing in front of you, and I'm the one who plotted to lure you out from the beginning, and I'm even pointing at your nose and scolding you - why, why do you ignore my existence! β
Speaking of which, the anger in Malfoy's heart finally could no longer extinguish the sense of oppression in Helpo's body. In the next moment, with a tearing sound of "snort", Helpo's cloak was torn from behind by Malfoy.
"Ahh
It was only then that Helbo finally stopped moving forward. He let Malfoy behind him tug at his cloak, shaking his head as if helplessly:
"Didn't you hear what the kid said? He said that McLean would come over at any time...... And me! Ahem...... Think he's right...... So, don't waste any more of my time, I'm not here for you. β
Before he could finish his words, and without seeing Helmo make any moves, Malfoy, who was still clutching his cloak, felt a powerful force that he could not resist coming towards him.
In the next second, with another piercing crack, Malfoy was suddenly catapulted out by an invisible force, and then smashed into the nearby shop window with a "thud".
However, until this moment, because Malfoy completely tore off the opponent's cloak while being shaken away, Helbo's appearance was finally completely exposed in front of Pansy and the others.
The skin that was so dark that it seemed that even the sun could not reflect it, and the muscles that were tall and muscular, and which you could tell at a glance contained terrifying strength......
And, of course, the hideous mutilations that have not yet been repaired.
But then again, it's probably a pretty weird thing to be hurt like this and still live well!
The remaining three people suddenly became more and more nervous.
