Chapter 2055: Unexpected People
"Miss, if I'm not mistaken, that living corpse...... It must have been Miss Ida Brandt, whom we had just met in the side hall. β
Yes, although they had just met, Willy was stunned and couldn't recognize the other party. The old butler noticed this, and only then did he whisper a reminder behind her.
"Is that her?"
When Willy heard this, she couldn't help but take a few more steps forward, and looked at the bloody figure that fell to the ground a few more times.
"Oh, really...... But how did she become a living corpse? Wasn't it okay before? β
As she spoke, she looked left and right, and at last she naturally turned her gaze to Madame Maximeβto the other's wrist, which was already tightly shackled to it.
After staring at it with some curiosity for a while, she said:
"Ma'am, did you do it?"
"Uh...... Not me, of course not. β
Handcuffed and brought back for interrogation and investigation by the Federation as a suspect, Maxim was able to reluctantly accept his fate and cooperate when he had no excuse for the time being. But when people really ask this question, no matter who opens this mouth, it is death that cannot be admitted.
"Is that so?" When Willie heard this, she couldn't help but nod her head, "It's not a trivial matter for a living corpse to appear on Beauxbatons' side, so who will do it?" β
As mentioned before, the status of the Blois family is still very high, and the public behavior of anyone in the family usually attracts a lot of attention. And at the moment, Willy, the "little princess" of the Blois family, is naturally not to mention.
As she looked at the way she was interested in the event, and seemed to believe Maxim easily, the expression of "certain people" suddenly became a little strange.
Is this Miss Willy Blois going to take a full stand?
Although this did not surprise the head of the Blois family, after actually seeing it, he immediately felt a lot of pressure - their Brandt family has not really won the Blois family even once, even if the major wizarding families have been weakened more or less in modern times, but the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and their Brandt family does not want to have a hard time with the Blois family!
However, before he could figure out what to do, he found that Willy didn't seem to be too entangled in the question of "who is the murderer".
"Hmm...... Forget it," I saw that after thinking for a while, Willy suddenly put her doubts aside and turned to the old butler, "It's still the Danish side that matters are more important." Don't stay here, I'm fine, you can go and let the family send someone to straighten out the team first! β
I remember that when we talked in the side hall earlier, Willy said that she was going to transfer the wizard of Granger's camp to Denmark, so she and the old butler came out at this time, in fact, the main reason was to let the old butler go back to convey her meaning in person.
To be honest, Willy would have liked to take someone to Denmark herself.
It's a pity that one is that she no longer has a relatively qualified combat ability, and the other is of course because of Maca's previous entrustment - she will never leave Beauxbatons until Maca returns.
"But, miss...... Now I'm leaving, it's too dangerous. β
When the old butler heard this, he also glanced at the messy scene outside the school, and then said so.
"It's okay, it won't take long to go back and forth."
Willie didn't have the consciousness of delaying the time of the others here at all, so in front of everyone inside and outside the school gate, she said to the old butler by herself:
"What's more, I just saw an acquaintance, and I'm just going to have a few words with him - you go first! I'll be here waiting for you to come back. β
"Acquaintances?"
When the old butler heard this, he looked left and right again, and thought that Willy wanted to talk to Madame Maxim and the others here. But who knew that the next moment, he saw Wei Li suddenly turn around, and then directly raised his hand and pointed at the roadside flowers not far away.
"Whoa! Professor Lupin. β
Under Willy's clear finger, everyone couldn't help but follow her hand and look towards the flowers on the side of the avenue. At the same time, a figure stood up from the half-human-tall flowers, patted the petals on the top of his head, and shrugged his shoulders in a slightly embarrassed way.
"Miss Blois, and everybody...... You may not believe it, but I'm really just passing by. β
That's right, as Willy said, it was Lupin who appeared among the flowers at this moment! And he couldn't tell whether he was hiding too well or too badly, and when many wizards with good strength present didn't notice it, he was seen through by Willy at a glance.
And at this moment, Madame Dumitru, who had stopped a little because of the appearance of the two Blois family, finally spoke again.
"'Professor Lupin'? Is it Remus Lupin? β
With a hint of suspicion in her eyes, she looked Lupin up and down, following Willy's name.
"Oh, yes...... As you should know, I used to be at Hogwarts for a while. β
"yes, I know." Dumitru nodded, glanced at Willy again, and then frowned slightly and continued, "So, Mr. Lupin, can you explain a little why you were hiding in the flowers just now?" Based on your answers, I may consider whether I need to bring you back to the Federation's headquarters for review. β
"It's-"
Not to mention the reason why Lupin came to Beauxbatons today, at least the reason why he hid in the flowers just now was to avoid being involved in this accident.
However, he certainly couldn't say that, unless he wanted his explanation to become more and more pale.
After thinking about it for a while, Lupin stepped forward and said:
"Ms. Dumitru, this matter is actually a relatively large secret. I can tell you, though...... After hearing this, please keep it a secret from others. β
"I'll judge for myself." Dumitru didn't say yes directly, but he didn't say no either.
Seeing her such a soft and hard attitude, Lupin had to shake his head.
"It's okay to say to President Akinbad, but other than that, please keep it a secret."
He said this, and then leaned into Dumitru's ear, and muttered quietly under the vigilance of the other party. After a while, the two separated, but they saw Dumitru frowning and staring at Lupin a few more times, and then nodded slightly.
"Alright! I will only report this matter to Mr. President, don't worry! β
