040. It's just ridiculous

When Scott asked, Roger followed suit, "I'm confused, I don't remember any intersection with that Miss Traverse. ”

Jacob glanced up at the two of them, then lowered his head again, and remained silent.

Lisa Dupin, who was sitting next to him, stole a glance at Professor Flitwick as if she wanted to speak.

"Looks like you might know the answer, Miss Dupin." Scott's gaze turned to Dupin.

Professor Flitwick also said, "If you know something, then you better tell us, Miss Dupin." ”

His expression was very serious at the moment.

"And Mr. Kent. Only by knowing all the truths can I be sure of the punishment for you. ”

Lisa Dupincer shrank for a moment, and said uneasily, "She...... Miss Travers said you shouldn't have bothered with Jacob's business, and looked at her with that condescending look. ”

"So that's it." Scott nodded knowingly.

Facing Professor Flitwick's questioning gaze, he stood up and bowed slightly, "Wait, Professor, I'd like to ask Jacob some questions. ”

Professor Flitwick nodded and made a "please" gesture.

Scott smiled gratefully at Professor Flitwick and sat down again.

"Jacob, I hope you will answer me truthfully." He said to Jacob, "What was the truth about what happened that night at the opening dinner?" And, why did you get mixed up with Travers and Rohr later. ”

"This ...... It all started with a trip to Diagon Alley before school started......"

Jacob still kept his head down, but began to talk honestly about his experience.

Because of the sobs from time to time, his voice was a little choppy and staccato, but it was clear enough.

He met Jasmine Travers in Diagon Alley during the summer holidays.

At the time, Jacob bought a box of ice cream at Florin's cold drink shop and spilled it on Travers in the crowd.

"I immediately apologized to her, and she smiled and said it was okay." Jacob said, "Oh, and Professor McGonagall, who led us to Diagon Alley, was there, and she used her magic to help Travers clean up. ”

For Jacob at the time, it was just a small episode, and he didn't take it to heart afterwards.

It's just that he didn't expect that on the express train to Hogwarts at the beginning of the school year, he met Travers again.

And this time, Traverse completely lost the cordial friendliness that he faced during the summer vacation.

"I wanted to make friends with her, but she looked at me like she was looking at a bed bug." Jacob said.

Scott listened in silence as he spoke.

So far, he thinks, Jacob has been telling the truth.

This is the first time that a boy who yearns for the wizarding world feels the malice of a pure-blood wizard in the wizarding world towards a Muggle wizard.

After all, reality is not a fairy tale.

"Then Caitlin Rohr also entered the carriage, and Travers immediately began to cry." Jacob continued, "She told Rohr that I was bullying her, and Rohr didn't listen to my explanation at all and kicked me out of that carriage. ”

Hearing this, Scott said to him, "So what happened on the night of the opening dinner was that Rohr was deceived by Travers and got angry for her and fell down the spiral staircase of the tower himself to frame you?" ”

"That's it!" Jacob looked up and looked at him with burning eyes, "But no one believes me, no matter how much I explain!" They kicked me out of my dorm room! ”

Professor Flitwick sighed with some remorse, "Oh, several prefects have reported this to me, and Miss Kerry Watt says it could have been an accident. ”

"And then?" Scott asked, "Why did you hang out with them again?" ”

Roger also said, "We've seen you with them more than once, and Scott called your name several times, but you didn't take the opportunity to come over to us. ”

"I don't dare!" Jacob's voice was distinctly weeping," Travers said...... She said that if I didn't listen to her, she could easily find my family in the Muggle world! ”

"This is ridiculous!"

Professor Flitwick couldn't help but slap the table, apparently hearing such a statement for the first time, and he said angrily, "She's intimidating you!" You shouldn't trust her, you should tell the professor about it! ”

"No!"

Jacob shook his head quickly.

"Travers said that if I tell the Professor, her house-elves will be able to get to my house as quickly as possible!"

He said horrifiedly, "She even has a picture of me in the bedroom!" ”

Roger was surprised and asked, "How did she know your home address?" ”

"The day we went to Diagon Alley, her house-elf followed us to my house!" Jacob's body curled up in fear, "That's what she said herself!" ”

Professor Flitwick began to scream angrily, "That's ridiculous! This is ridiculous! There has never been, never been such a lawless student! I'm going to have Professor Snape fire that girl himself! ”

He reassured Jacob, "Don't worry, don't worry, Mr. Kent! Now that I know about it, I'm sure to keep your family safe! ”

"Purr!" He reached out and snapped his fingers.

With a pop, a house-elf appeared in the office, draped in a neat tea towel and staring at green eyes as big as a tennis ball, bending down to Professor Flitwick.

"Dear Wizard, Lulu is at your service!"

It spoke in a very high voice, as if it felt like it was a great honor to be called by a wizard.

"I need you to protect my family, Lulu." Professor Flitwick told it, "If any other house-elves show up near that house, you get rid of them." ”

Lulu immediately screamed and agreed: "Protect the family? No problem, Lulu will do it! Lulu will drive away all the bad pixies! ”

"Now, write your home address on this piece of paper, Mr. Kent." Professor Flitwick tapped the parchment on the table and said to Jacob.

Jacob immediately stood up, picked up the quill on the table, and began to write, crying and excitedly saying, "Thank you, thank you so much, Professor!" ”

Professor Flitwick handed the note to Lulu and said to Jacob, "Don't worry, only Lulu and I can see the note." ”

Jacob said in fear, "No, I'm not worried, you don't have to. ”

"Needless to say, it's decided." Professor Flitwick waved his hand and gestured for Purr to leave.

Lulu bent down and bowed again, and soon disappeared from the sight of several people.

After seeing Lulu leave, Jacob immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and seemed to have become much more relieved.

"So let's get down to business." Professor Flitwick opened his mouth to ask him, "What did Miss Traverse do at school, that girl?" And how are you going to get revenge on Trollope and Davis? ”
