116. The confrontation of two ladies
Scott turned his head.
Their Ravenclaw ghost didn't know when it stood at the entrance to the hall.
"It's Ms. Gray!" Eddie let out a small exclamation.
Ms. Gray moved, and she walked straight past the boys, floating in front of the black-haired witch.
"Medea." She said in an emotional tone, "I didn't expect you to hide here all this time." ”
Medea?
Scott's eyebrows were raised.
The name is unusual.
"I didn't expect to see each other again at Hogwarts after a thousand years."
The black-haired witch known as Medea chuckled and said to Lady Gray.
"My best friend."
But Ms. Gray, as she called her "best friend", did not respond to her friendship, but looked at her coldly.
"You should be dead." Ms. Gray said indifferently.
"yes, I should be dead." The smile on Medea's face was put away, "Just like you." ”
Ms. Gray floated around her, and at the same time said in a light tone, "It seems that you still can't let go of your attachments, and you actually survived in this way." ”
"Are you laughing at me, Helena?" Medea burst into a crisp laugh, "A ghost who stays here because of obsession laughs at my persistence? ”
Ms. Gray didn't answer, but the expression on her face grew colder.
She floated in front of the boys and looked at Medea indifferently.
"Oh? It seems that you want to protect them, protect the Ravenclaw students? ”
Medea also said coldly.
"Don't forget, you're just a ghost who can't interfere with the real world, Helena!"
In a commanding tone, Ms. Gray said to Milton, "Grevis, don't promise her any more deals. ”
Medea sneered and walked around the hall at will.
"It's a pity, Helena, that kid seems to be more interested in music than magic."
Her every move is very dignified and elegant, which is pleasing to the eye.
"Maybe he'd rather be a Muggle musician?"
She looked meaningfully at Scott again.
"It's a pity that you Ravenclaw children are as stingy as you are for your friends, otherwise this child would have gotten better results."
"No, that's for the best!"
Milton's voice rang out.
Scott, they all turned to look at him.
Milton looked up, seemed to muster courage, and looked directly at Medea.
"My friends are already upsetting me when they are here for me to venture out, and I can't afford them to pay more for me."
He said very seriously.
"Too much favor is too much of a burden for the person who is helped. So, that's it. ”
Scott couldn't help but curl the corners of his lips when he heard Milton's words.
The reason why he said "no" was because he knew that Milton would not be at fault with him because of this.
In other words, this kind of speech, which seems to trigger the collapse of friendship, is understandable and acceptable to most Ravenclaws.
Because Ravenclaws are generally more concerned with the sense of distance between people.
Medea, who listened to Milton's words, sneered, "Perhaps, I really don't understand your Ravenclaw reserve and selfishness. ”
"You're angry, Medea." Ms. Gray said calmly, "It's not wise. ”
Medea seems to be angry.
"What you did in life wasn't wise, Helena!" She spoke very quickly, "Do you want me to tell these Ravenclaw children what you did!" ”
"If you want." Ms. Gray's tone remained calm.
Medea turned to something else.
"I used to think we were like-minded, Helena." She sighed faintly and said, "But when you refused to help me, you turned around and did that again. ”
"It's between us."
Ms. Gray said.
"And, I didn't expect it...... She will make such a vow with you. ”
Medea suddenly laughed again.
She laughed for a moment, then walked up to Ms. Gray and said, "They owe me, they owe my father!" ”
"But you can't hurt any student." "Neither will your father. ”
"Yes, I can't!"
Medea turned abruptly and sat down in front of the orchestra stand.
"Let's go."
She said with some interest.
"I've been kind enough to give that kid another chance, and he'll come to me himself if he wants to be exchanged."
With that, she put her hands on the keyboard, her fingers danced, and the grand and solemn music resounded throughout the hall again.
"Let's go!"
Ms. Gray beckoned the boys to leave with her.
Scott and the others looked at each other for a moment, then left the music room after her.
As they walked through the hallway, the lights behind them went out one by one.
When they stepped out of the exit, the stone door closed on its own, disappearing into the stone wall.
"Ms. Gray?"
Scott looked at Ms. Gray, who was floating in front of him.
"I know what you're asking."
Ms. Gray turned to look at them.
"All I can tell you is that her name is Medea Slytherin, and she is the daughter of Slytherin."
"This ......"
Scott: They were completely shocked.
Eddie couldn't help but ask, "Aren't Slytherin's daughters married?" Married to Gaunt. ”
"Yes."
Ms. Gray said coldly.
"But there are a lot of things I don't want to tell you."
Finally, she stared at Milton.
"Take my advice, Grevis." She said seriously, "Don't trade with her again, it will lead to unpredictable results!" ”
With that, she floated up again and quickly disappeared in front of them.
Scott and the others looked at each other a few times, and they both felt that what they had experienced today was too incredible.
They stood on the platform made of large stones, looking at the black lake below in a daze, and no one spoke for a while.
In the end, it was Milton who broke the silence.
"Let's go back quickly." "It's a little cold here," he said. ”
Scott asked him, "What do you think, Milton, to follow Ms. Gray's advice?" ”
Milton stroked his long messy hair and whispered, "That's it, Ms. Gray said it would have unpredictable consequences, and I don't want to hurt anyone else because of my business." ”
He smiled at the cold wind, his smile seemed to be a little more free than before, "Maybe it's fate's choice." ”
"You're right, Milton!"
Eddie laughed along.
"Even though I was born into a Muggle family, I can't imagine what it would be like to be a Muggle now."
"That's right."
Roger patted Milton on the shoulder.
"Without music, you still have magic. Scott says that now that your magic is stronger than mine, maybe you can try to become a powerful wizard. ”
Milton nodded.
Scott looked at him with a smile, "If you want me to say, studying magic is also addictive, isn't it?" ”
