In the Ravenclaw common room, Scott and his two roommates are still standing in front of the window.

"Do you think Dupin will really be captured in Azkaban?" Milton asked Scott and Eddie.

"No, Milton." Scott smiled, "Didn't Brown say that since no substantial damage was done, Miss Dupin would be able to get out of the Azkaban journey as long as she had enough gold gallons." ”

Eddie continued, "Obviously, Dupin's family won't let her actually be taken to Azkaban, and they should have that ability too. ”

"The surname Du Ping is not a pure-blood family, right?" Milton asked.

Scott looked at Eddie as well.

Eddie, who never disappoints in this regard, really knows the answer, and he replied smoothly: "Of course not, their family is a new wizard family, but they are trying to get closer to those pure-blood families." ”

"A new wizard family moving closer to a pure-blood family?" Scott's tone of voice was a little playful when he said this.

He thought it was ridiculous, "The so-called emerging wizarding families were probably Muggle or half-blood wizards in previous generations. I don't think the stubborn pure-blood families will take them lightly. ”

"You're right, Scott." Eddie laughed too, "But as far as I understand, some of these so-called emerging wizard families do just that. They all dreamed of marrying a wizard from a pure-blood family. ”

"They think it's ......," he said, using both hands to make double quotation marks, "the way to 'improve the bloodline.'" ”

When he talked about this topic, he couldn't help but have a look of disdain on his face.

Scott only thought it was funny, "I don't think any pure-blood family would want to marry them. ”

He really didn't expect that there would be such a group of wizards in the wizarding world with opposing bloods.

Looks like he doesn't know enough about the wizarding world, Scott thought. But Eddie is also a talent, and he can find out more than just gossip.

At this time, Milton, who had been silent just now, suddenly spoke: "All this time, these new families have been marrying with the same families. ”

His tone was a little stiff.

"They now look down on a generation of Muggles or half-blood wizards, just as pure-blood families look down on them."

The expression on Milton's face changed, revealing [Milton's disdain].

"After all, they believe that after several generations of wizards and wizards have been united, their family members can be called 'true purebloods' as well. But at the end of the day, they're just a bunch of poor creatures who don't get accepted. ”

Scott and Eddie didn't expect to hear such blunt sarcasm from Milton.

Although [Milton's contempt] was so sharp that Roger called it a form of magic, the sarcasm between Milton's words was indeed rare.

They could see that something was wrong with Milton.

This may have something to do with the family he came from, so both Scott and Eddie tacitly didn't ask.

But Milton, an emotionally sensitive boy, smiled at Scott and Eddie and took the initiative to say, "My dad was born into a family like this, and because he was married to my mom, a Muggle woman, my grandfather didn't like our family very much. ”

Hearing this, Scott was worried that Milton would be in tears again.

But Milton seemed to have gotten used to it and was surprisingly strong.

He even joked, "But fortunately, such a family can't even write a palm-long parchment, so we don't have to worry about being evicted." ”

However, such a topic is still embarrassing after all, and Scott and Eddie don't know what to say to comfort him for a moment.

Fortunately, the arrival of a silver bird relieved Scott from his embarrassment.

"It's Professor Flitwick's Patronus Charm!" Milton snapped.

It was a silver hummingbird, the length of Scott's finger, and Professor Flitwick's voice came out of its mouth.

"I'm sorry, Scott. It looks like you're coming to my office as well, and it seems that you're being involved. ”

With that, the hummingbird summoned by the Patronus Charm immediately dissipated.

As expected.

Scott smiled slightly.

"What's going on?"

"Why did the professor let you go?"

At this time, Milton and Eddie both looked at him with some curiosity.

"I don't know." Scott shook his head, "But I think we'll get an answer soon, I'll see you later." ”

He turned and left the common room.

Professor Flitwick's office is located on the eighth floor of the main castle building, not far from the Ravenclaw Tower. But if you go the regular route, Scott needs to climb down the tower first and then climb eight floors up the stairs of the main building.

Fortunately, there is a secret passage in the tower that only Ravenclaw students know.

Standing in front of a portrait of a knight on the wall opposite the common room, Scott took out his wand and dotted it on the painting, "Superior wisdom is the greatest treasure of mankind." ”

"Hey! Don't put your wand on me! The knight glared at him, turning away from his wand.

At this moment, Professor Flitwick's voice came from the portrait, "Is that Scott?" Come here. ”

A wooden door appears on the stone wall behind the portrait, and Scott raises his hand to push it open and enters the secret passage.

Yes, this passage requires Professor Flitwick's approval to open, so Ravenclaw students still have to climb stairs to get to and from the tower.

"Hey! Brat! Where are your hands touching! ”

The knight in the portrait began to complain again, but Scott ignored him and closed the door casually, blocking out his complaints.

He walked through the secret passage and pushed open an equally wooden door on the other side, revealing the interior of Professor Flitwick's office.

"Professor."

Scott stepped out of the secret passage and into Professor Flitwick's desk.

"Scott, you're here." Professor Flitwick gestured to the side, "Come, sit down here." ”

Scott thanked him and sat down on the single couch.

"Professor, you mean that this incident is related to me?" He asked, curiously.

At this point, the three people who had come to the office with Professor Flitwick were there. Roger sat next to him, while Lisa Dupin and Jacob Kent sat on the sofa opposite.

"Oh, Scott, that's from Mr. Kent." Professor Flitwick turned to look at Jacob.

"Yes...... Yes. Jacob glanced at Scott timidly, and said in a trembling voice, "Miss Travers originally wanted to take revenge on both Mr. Trollope and Mr. Davis, but Miss Rohr, who was in charge of taking revenge on Mr. Trollope, had an accident. ”

Scott looked at Jacob with a smile on his face, and raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this.

This is...... Already "confessed"?

"Revenge?" "I don't remember when we offended that Miss Traverse," he asked, pretending to be confused. ”
