The sinister wizard was right, and if he could get a favor from the old butler of the Lemay family, the benefits would be obvious.

In fact, many forces have long wanted to do something, but old Edward must have known what they were thinking in their hearts, so he hid in Beauxbatons all the time.

It is precisely because of this that this favor will become more and more precious.

When the frivolous wizard pointed this out accurately, the representatives of the other forces also cast sharp glances at the two wizards, one tall and one short, as if they wanted to pierce their hypocritical surface in one fell swoop.

In fact, there may not be no guys in this crowd who have the same suspicions as the frivolous wizard, but since he made this guess clear first, he just gave everyone a signal to attack in groups.

Suddenly, a large amount of eyes converged on the two wizards, which couldn't help but make the tall man who was still very relaxed feel great pressure in an instant.

However, the short wizard who controlled Young Master Tefal was still quite calm at the moment, and was not at all moved by those gazes.

"Let's go! It's almost time......" Maca suddenly glanced left and right, and after noticing that no one was looking at him, she immediately whispered to Fanny.

"Uh...... Good. ”

Fanny was obviously puzzled by the sudden words, and she couldn't understand why Maca would say she was leaving at this time. Judging from the situation in the field, maybe the answer will come out in a short time!

But as an excellent housekeeper, she has long been accustomed to "obeying orders from above without knowing why", so she nodded and answered without much hesitation.

I have to say that it is indeed very convenient to have a companion like Fanny, although she has not been very useful until now, but at least it has not hindered Maca from doing things, has it?

For Maca, that's enough.

When Fanny followed Maca silently out of the auditorium outside the crowd, she realized a small detail that she hadn't noticed before—was it intentional that Maca had stood so far away with her when she came back from the school infirmary?

In other words, he was planning to leave at the middle of the game from the beginning?

It wasn't long before Maca quietly retreated from the side porch with Fanny, and turned a corner down the hallway, and walked directly out of Beauxbatons Castle through the entrance door of the foyer.

Although the number of wizards gathered in the auditorium was obviously increasing, it did not mean that no one outside was insisting on searching. As soon as they exited the gate, they saw that there were still a lot of scattered witches and wizards looking around, and looking at the posture, it seemed that they wanted to touch the entire outer courtyard of Beauxbatons Castle.

Outside the castle, Maca was no longer in a hurry.

"Go this way."

He stood on the stone steps at the main entrance of the castle and looked up for a moment, then beckoned to Fanny again.

Following, probably feeling that it was no longer necessary for others to continue to be cautious about whether others would notice their actions, he swaggered to the left front.

Seeing this, Fanny no longer wondered about anything, anyway, she knew that it seemed that she only needed to follow Maca next.

Soon, she noticed that Maca seemed to have spotted some wizard who was searching the edge of the garden, and had almost followed the nearest route.

"How's it going on your end?"

Sure enough, as soon as Maca went up, she started talking to the people very naturally.

It was a middle-aged wizard who looked to be in his thirties or forties. He wore a navy blue cloak, a pipe in his hand, and a monocle stuck in his right eye, and he looked quite delicate.

"Nothing," said the wizard, pushing the lenses in his eye sockets, a thin silver chain tied to the foot of the frame shimmering a faint metallic hue in the moonlight, "and nothing was found." ”

Maca nodded in understanding, and after looking around for a moment, she beckoned slightly.

"Come on, it's time for us to get started in a different place!"

"That's great," the other party shook his head with a wry smile, and the next second, he quickly raised his hand against the lens in front of his right eye, as if he almost shook it off because of shaking his head, "Well, you see...... It's just wonderful. ”

"I think that must be uncomfortable," Maka shrugged before taking the lead and turning back, "I don't know why anyone still likes these lenses that are stuck in their eye sockets, aren't ordinary glasses bad?" ”

"It will make a man look very personable," said the man, following him, casually, "and in my youth this kind of gadget was popular for a long time, and it can be said that it is a gentleman's must-have when he goes out." ”

"Oh? Don't you wear it at home? Maca laughed.

"Hmm...... Like you said, it's not comfortable to wear," the other man smiled, and then immediately stretched out his finger and pushed the lenses, "There are no ladies who need gentlemen to behave in the world, do you?" ”

Under Fanny's thoughtful gaze all the way, the two of them walked with the same steady steps, and once again entered through the main entrance of the castle. And this time, Maca didn't seem to mean to go to the auditorium, but led the two directly to a window hole.

This is the end of the corridor to the right of the foyer, and when you lean against the window and look out, you can only see a dull shadow of a tree. Shaded by the increasingly dense foliage, the night without moonlight looked particularly dark.

At this time, most of the wizards were in the auditorium on the left hand side of the foyer, and the rest were wandering outside the castle, and there was not even a single figure here.

"Take the lenses off! It's just the three of us here......" Maka and the other two stood still, reaching for a potion bottle at his waist as he spoke, "Here, drink it, and your eye sockets will say goodbye to that thing forever." ”

"Well, I don't think I can wait."

The other party reached out and took it off, and poured it into his mouth at the same time as he took off the monocle. The next moment, all of his exposed skin squirmed with a visible amplitude, as if a swarm of small rats had burrowed into his body, and it looked very strange.

Needless to say, what he drank was obviously the antidote to the compound decoction.

Although it is true that you can wait for it to lose its effect automatically without relieving the potion, and the effect of the compound decoction does not last too long, it will take a while after all. Now that Maca is looking for him, he has naturally found the right time to act, and he may miss it if he waits for a while.

Soon, when he was back to normal again, Fanny suddenly showed a "sure enough" expression.

In front of her, the rather handsome middle-aged male wizard just now not only grew much older, but even his black hair turned pale. A pair of bright eyes are a little cloudy at the moment, but the deep color in them is even more intense.

I saw him untie his cloak and shake it lightly, then took out his wand and clicked on it, and the cloak immediately became a familiar butler's suit.

I'm afraid no one could have imagined that Maca, who seemed the most unlikely to get rid of the old butler Edward, was actually one of the weavers behind this incident. Fanny even remembered that at the moment when the old butler disappeared, he was waltzing with Madame Maxim in mid-air with ice and snow!

"Mr. Edward, is this a lot easier?" Maca laughed, "I know that feeling, it's always hard to get used to having to play as a stranger. ”

"Especially if someone else knows that stranger." Old Edward shook his head again and smiled helplessly, "Someone came over to talk to me before, and it was really hard...... The main thing is that I'm also distracted by this lens, you know, it falls off if you're not careful. ”

"Throw it away!" Maca waved her hand and said, "I don't think that person needs it anymore...... Let's go! Madame Maxim is waiting for us in the Great Hall! Hopefully she's not waiting...... You don't know, it must be a mess right now! ”

Maca and Edward joked casually, and both seemed very relaxed. Because they understand that they only need to pay more attention to the details and deal with some possible emergencies, and the rest can basically be said to be determined.

As for whether Mr. Nicol Lemay's legacy can be successfully revealed to the global wizarding community, it depends on the world-class alchemy competition that follows.

"Mr. McLean, when did you negotiate with Mr. Butler? What's next? Fanny wanted to ask, but she knew that this was not the time to say this, so she forcibly swallowed the question that had almost reached her throat.

Maca was about to return down the hallway, but as soon as he lifted his leg, he turned his head slightly, as if sensing Fanny's doubts.

"Miss Blois, you need to make a ......show in a moment," he said, "of course, what I want you to do will not damage the reputation of the Blois, but ...... Well, maybe it makes you feel a little unhappy? ”

"Not happy?" Fanny was slightly stunned, "Please...... Please speak. ”

"Let's talk as we go!" Maka beckoned to her and the old butler, and walked straight forward, "Otherwise, Madame Maxim's side will be annoyed by those guys—"

Under Maka's succinct and clear instructions, Fanny nodded again and again, and answered softly from time to time. And when the three of them were about to walk to the doorway in the side porch of the foyer, the surprise on her face that was becoming more and more obvious quickly subsided again.

"Thank you for your trust, Mr. McLean!" She finally whispered, "In this way, the task given to me by the head of the family should be completed perfectly." ”

With that, she bowed slightly to Maca and the old butler, who were standing by the door, and then stepped into the hall first.
