"Tom tom."

There was a sudden knock at the door, and Ens, who was immersed in all kinds of thoughts, came back to his senses.

To be honest, he was a little surprised now, because he actually knew very well why Maca would let him rest here.

Of course, in a situation like him, probably anyone would have doubts. Therefore, Ens did not feel any dissatisfaction with Maca, who had put him under "disguised house arrest" here.

It's just that it stands to reason that in this case, no one should be able to come to him, after all, Maca should have been guarding down there all the time, right?

Could it be that Mr. McLean thought of something so quickly?

The thought flashed through Ens's mind, and then he shook his head—it was unlikely, not long after the two had finished talking.

"Tom-tom-"

The man outside was still knocking, and Earns, who was already a little anxious when he heard it, became even more irritable. And to be honest, he doesn't want to see anyone now, he just wants to lie in bed and be quiet for a while and sort out his thoughts.

"Who!"

Faced with the annoying knock on the door, Ens finally couldn't help but ask.

“…… It's me! Alexander. ”

"Is that you?"

Hearing this, Anns, who was lying on the bed, couldn't help but hesitate and smacked his mouth twice, and then reluctantly turned over and got out of bed, walked over and opened the door.

"Why are you here? Mr. McLean didn't stop you? ”

"Professor? Why did he stop me? Alexander stood outside the door, looked at Ens suspiciously, and then looked at him again, "How are you?" Did that guy Helbo do anything terrible to you? ”

"He didn't do anything."

Ens was still stuck in the doorway, and said impatiently:

"Okay, I don't want to talk to you about that right now...... You see, I'm fine, everything is fine - so my 'friend', can you go? ”

"Hey, Ens! You said it all, we are 'friends'...... Worried about your friend's fault? ”

As he said this, Alexander suddenly and naturally put his hand on Enns's shoulder, and tried to squeeze into the room first.

However, the moment he tried to take a step forward, a rod was already pressed against his forehead.

"Of course it's right to worry about your friends," he said in an unkind tone, "but you have to at least find out if it's your 'friend' standing in front of you, right?" ”

"Uh, Enns, what are you doing here?"

Alexander glanced up with his eyelids, and soon realized that it was Enns's silver snake staff that was pressing against his head at the moment.

"Don't you understand?" Ens pursed his lips and said, "Why do you think I was able to get out of Helbo's hideout unscathed?" And came back so quickly? Why do you think McClain wants me to put me under house arrest in disguise? ”

"Oh...... Is it possible, you ......"

Hearing Ens say it so clearly, and with the tip of the cold snake staff on his head, Alexander seemed to finally understand the current situation.

Seeing him look at Ens with a rather complicated look, he hesitated:

"You've already joined Helbo's side? What did he say to you, how did he convince you so easily? ”

"Can you handle it?" Hearing this, Ens couldn't help but reach out and push him back, pushing him back into the corridor outside, "Not leaving?" Want to die? ”

He actually felt that he had spoken these words very badly, but who knew that after Alexander regained his footing, he immediately waved his hand and said:

"Hey! I said Enns, don't-"

He said as he walked towards the door again. And this time, even if Ens put the snake staff against his chest again, he just tossed it aside.

"I don't think there's anything between you and me that has to fight for your life to resolve...... For the sake of our friends, can you at least tell me what Helbo said? ”

With that, Alexander squeezed into the room this time through the little gap beside Earns. The latter was squeezed by him, so annoyed that he almost wanted to throw a spell at the back of his head.

"Stop! Who let you in—"

"Oh, I just want to have a good chat with you, what are you angry about!" Alexander sat down directly at the small round table with an embroidered tablecloth by the window, "What's more, Professor McLean is sitting in the living room below, and he must know exactly what we're doing upstairs." If you're going to be Helbo's guy, I don't think you're going to say it right under the professor's nose! ”

"You ...... guy"

Ens guttered a little bit through gritted teeth, but finally reluctantly backhanded and slammed the door shut.

"Okay, okay...... Damn, I'm also convinced of you, I can't take a break if I want to. ”

After closing the door, he didn't look at Alexander who had broken in cheekily, but went straight back to the bed and lay down straight down as before.

"Say it! What do you want to know? Let's start with that, I'm still confused on my side, but I don't have much to tell you-"

After muttering like this, Ens began to talk to Alexander with some weakness. And after Ens gave him a rough overview of the conversations with Helmpo that had been reduced again, Alexander said thoughtfully:

"So...... If the professor had agreed to Helbo's armistice, would the catastrophe have finally ended? ”

"The end?"

When Ens heard this, he immediately sneered and said:

"Although I don't know exactly what kind of compromise Helpo proposed as a 'mirror' or something, I still don't think Helpo really wants to give up the fight. And even if you take 10,000 steps back, it will only be a 'suspension' at most...... That's 'Despicable Helbo'! ”

"Even if ...... Salazar Slytherin was originally a proud student of Helbo? Alexander thought for a moment.

"Yes, even if the two of them are teachers and students, the relationship is the same!" "Anyway, at least I didn't get the slightest warmth in Helbo's tone...... Not to mention, who knows if it's just a fake story he casually made up to deceive me? ”

"Yes," Alexander said, shrugging his shoulders, "that guy has done all this so far that is already unforgivable. When you think about it, it doesn't seem to matter at all...... But, Anns, what are you going to do next? After all, the 'you're a Slytherin offspring' thing, you shouldn't have run away, right? ”
