Chapter 586: Balancing People's Hearts

"Someone from the Blois?"

"Looks like Blois Castle is also going to intervene?"

"The benefits here are visible to all, and it's not surprising that the Blois family wants to get a hand. But I didn't expect that the Blois family looked like they were indisputable on the surface, but behind the scenes, they secretly made a trick, hehe. ”

"Say one thing and do another, but anyone can do it......"

In the auditorium, as soon as old Edward's words came out, the wizards who had been startled by his sudden appearance were in an uproar. It can be heard that the whispering voices are almost connected, and the audience is full of chaos when you say a word.

Maca stood on the side of the gate, first looking around, then at Fanny, who was standing in the middle of the crowd. The other party has now been pushed to the forefront by the "truth" revealed by the old housekeeper, and it is foreseeable that she will endure waves of questioning and condemnation from other forces in the future.

Whether it is those who act in a relatively upright style, or some who like to do things by unscrupulous means, they will point the finger at Fanny...... Or rather, the entire Blois family behind Fanny.

It is more appropriate to take the opportunity to eliminate a strong enemy than to share the enemy's hatred. Whatever the purpose, they will take advantage of the chaos and focus their firepower on Fanny.

"Miss Blois...... I really can't imagine that your family background is so deep that you would do such a despicable thing! ”

"Yes! Such selfish behavior is simply ridiculous! ”

"Get out of Beauxbatons now, we don't want to stay with you Blois! You don't deserve to be part of the public affair of Mr. Nicole Lemay's legacy! ”

There are many other wizards who say similar things, and they all seem to be righteous words, but in fact, most of them have unspeakable greed. Maca watched silently, waiting for Fanny, who was surrounded in the center, to speak.

Under the hypocritical glares of the wizards, Fanny was extraordinarily calm. She just had a resolute and feminine face as usual, and she did not waver in the face of a great deal of rebuke.

"I don't think it's too late for everyone to continue questioning after Mr. Butler and Mr. McLean have explained the specific situation!"

Fanny finally spoke, and as soon as she came up, she used a voice reinforcement charm, and her serious but soft voice immediately spread to the ears of everyone present.

But is it useful for her to say that? It's certainly useless.

Fanny, as the person concerned, was even more hated as the "number one enemy" by everyone, how could those representatives who deliberately put their forces in the "vulnerable group" pay attention to her?

Marka knew that Fanny was trying to argue that nothing would have completely quelled the noisy chaos. So as soon as he had finished speaking, he strode with the old butler in the middle of the crowd.

"Everyone, be quiet!"

This voice obviously has a more peculiar effect than Fanny's words. It wasn't just a sound amplification spell, he also attached the power of the soul rules to it, and just one sentence shocked all the witches and wizards in the auditorium.

"Miss Blois, I see you have anything else to say?" As he walked through the crowd, he said aloud, "This fact is in front of me, and I have seen the steward of your Blois family with my own eyes, and I really can't think of anything else you have to say...... But it just so happens that I have a few questions that I would like to ask you clearly, so that I don't have to go back to His Excellency the Castle Lord to ask questions. ”

He said, pausing slightly, then glancing around seemingly casually.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ What's more, tonight is full of wizards with some of the world's leading wizards, and we won't leave you speechless for a word of self-justification. Whatever you want to say, you can open your mouth now! ”

Maca's words were so powerful, but to be honest, most of the people in the auditorium were not interested in hearing Fanny's defense. From the point of view of their people, driving Fanny out of Beauxbatons was the best outcome for them.

But Marca's words were so above board that they, who wanted to stand on the moral high ground to criticize Fanny and the Blois family, could not even say a word of stopping.

These words seem to be aimed at Fanny, but in fact, they are simply to forcibly choke the throats and eyes of those who are sanctimonious.

"If you are excited and put yourself too high, it is easy to not get off the stage." Maca vomited in her heart for the first time in a long time, and then looked at Fanny in front of her and stopped talking.

"Hmmm......"

When Fanny saw this scene, she couldn't help but sigh secretly in her heart.

She knew a lot more than the wizards in the room, so she learned about some of Maca's plans. It can be said that the entire chaotic scene of Beauxbatons at the moment has almost been completely controlled by him under the precise guidance of McKellen step by step.

Despite this arrangement, the biggest key point still falls on the old butler Edward, but without McLean's full control over people's hearts, I am afraid it would be difficult to do it so easily.

Because in addition to the disappearance of old Edward, there are other unexpected situations that have arisen in Beauxbatons due to coincidence. It's very difficult to combine things that don't seem to fit together to promote development for your own purposes.

This includes part of the Taforler family's conspiracy, two unidentified wizards, and even ......

"Mr. McLean, let me ask you first, did you bring Mr. Butler back?" Fanny's mind was full of thoughts, but she didn't hesitate too much, and quickly asked her first question.

Hearing this, Maca nodded slightly but clearly.

"Yes, I found Mr. Edward Lemay in the woods outside Beauxbatons," he said in clear terms, "and there was another man who was trying to escape from the school's prohibition of apparition, and I stopped him before he could successfully leave. ”

"Yes...... Fanny also nodded slightly, "So, what kind of evidence makes you and Mr. Butler think that that person must be the wizard of our Blois family?" And...... Where is that man now? ”

"Oh, that's right," Maca said bluntly, not scrupling anything, "I've had some superficial research in the art of retribution, and for me...... It's not that difficult to figure out who the other person is. ”

As soon as he said this, the wizards who were a little close to him all took a step back.

Obviously, these people knew what a good dementor represented. It can be said that even if a skilled dementor does not use magic, he can break the minds of others to a certain extent, which is quite terrifying for people with distracting thoughts.

But Maca didn't pay much attention to their little movements, he just shrugged his shoulders and continued:

"As for the steward...... Seeing that the situation was not good, he took Mr. Lemay as a hostage as a cover, and withdrew from the range of the Anti-Apparition Charm while it was inconvenient for me to make a move. And what happened after that, I think you and everyone can imagine. ”

"Do you know his name?" Fanny pretended to think about it, and paused for a moment before continuing.

"Martin." Maca replied immediately.

After Demaca said the name, Fanny immediately asked about the other party's appearance and clothing, and then was silent for a while. Looking at her frowning appearance, it was obvious that there was a deep embarrassment about something.

After a while, she pursed her lips and said, "I see, it is indeed a steward with a foreign surname in our Blois Castle." Since both of them had seen each other, and Mr. McLean had read each other's memories, ...... That shouldn't be wrong......"

At this point, she took a deep breath, then raised her head and said seriously: "But I would like to state once again that we at Fort Blois really have no intention of interfering in this matterβ€”this is what the castle lord himself said to me. The steward Martin must have done so out of his own whims, not the will of my Blois. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ With regard to this steward who has made such a great mistake, on behalf of the Blois family, I hereby declare that we will certainly take a stern line of accountability. ”

"Who believes?"

"Yes! As long as tonight is over, what 'Martin' steward is not you, Blois Castle, can say whatever you want? ”

Before Fanny's voice could be settled, some discordant voices immediately appeared in the crowd, and there was a hint of sarcasm in her tone.

However, Maca raised her hand and waved it, naturally interrupting the rumors. It was probably because the momentum he had just created was so strong that the wizards present subconsciously stopped their mouths.

Of course, those guys reacted quickly, but the right time had been missed, and it was obviously inconvenient to continue speaking.

"Look!" Marca stopped the gossip on the periphery, but he himself said, "Miss Blois, I think it is hard to convince the public now. ”

When he said this, many people nodded their heads.

"But it doesn't matter," continued Maca, "and I saw something interesting when I was searching for the memories of the Martin steward...... A few gentlemen from the Millofarian family over there, I don't know if you have anything to say about the Martin steward? ”

He turned his head around these words, but very abruptly turned to a place that no one expected.
