Chapter Forty-Eight: Miranda's Difficulties

Miranda saw Xiwen's speechless expression and laughed out loud.

"I'm not kidding you, it's just the vanishing spell I practiced. The content of this year's wizard level exam syllabus. She said.

At the mention of the Vanishing Spell, Xiwen suddenly thought of a question, so he asked, "If your Vanishing Curse hits me, will it make my whole person disappear?" ”

Miranda looked at him like a fool and said, "If the vanishing spell had this effect, it would have been practiced by the dark wizard a long time ago. But have you ever seen a wizard fight with a vanishing charm? ”

"You have to keep in mind the basic law of Gamp's transformation, magic cannot disappear or be created out of thin air, so the vanishing charm cannot work on wizards or magical beasts!" Miranda said.

"That's right." Xiwen nodded, then asked suddenly. "That works for Muggles, right?"

"How do you have that thought?" Miranda looked at him in surprise and asked. "There are so many ways to deal with non-magical creatures, so why use the more expensive Transfiguration technique? What a weakened version of the Stun Charm could fix is so complicated by you. ”

Xiwen smiled wryly and said, "I'm just trying to figure out how it works......"

Miranda pursed her lips and asked angrily, "So what's the matter with coming to me?" Isn't it just to interrupt my spell practice? ”

"Of course not." Xiwen shook his head, and said with a straight face. "You asked me about our family's Enamel branch before, and now there's news."

Miranda also became serious and asked, "How is it, is there any movement?" ”

Xiwen said: "Now I only know that the flow of funds on the side of the Enamel branch has been somewhat abnormal recently, and there is no other news. ”

Miranda nodded and said, "That's enough, this proves that the Dark Lord Grindelwald will definitely make a move in the near future." ”

The corners of Xiwen's mouth twitched, and he said embarrassedly: "Is it really good to use such an affirmative tone, it's also our family......"

"Don't you think the flow of money has something to do with Grindelwald?" Randa raised an eyebrow and looked at Xiwen and said.

"Well, I think." Xiwen touched his nose and said not too confidently. "Maybe it's an investment or something?"

"Don't be stupid, if you engage in such a thing as investment, you will hide it from the branch of your family?" Miranda said angrily.

"Okay." Xiwen nodded resignedly.

Seeing that he had finally admitted the incident, Miranda's expression relaxed a little, and then asked, "Did you tell the professor about this?" ”

"Not yet." Shiwen shook his head and replied. "It's always hard to tell outsiders about this kind of family matter, and there is a feeling of leaking family secrets."

"So you leaked your family secrets to me?" Miranda said with a smirk as she looked at him.

"It's different." Xiwen shrugged his shoulders and said casually. "After all, you've helped me a lot, and our relationship is okay. It's not a big deal to discuss the situation at home with friends, right? ”

"On the other hand, I don't really want to tell the old headmaster about my family, who knows if he will doubt me again after he wrongs my soul body?" Xiwen silently added in his heart.

"Thank you for your trust, Xiwen." Miranda laughed, and then said, "But I'm sorry, as a prefect, I had to tell the school about it." ”

"It's okay." Xiwen nodded indifferently.

No matter how you say it, it is also a major matter related to the Dark Lord, and it is not appropriate to hide it privately after all, otherwise it will be ugly if you miss the overall situation.

And handing over Miranda to report to the school not only prevents her from being embarrassed when facing the principal, but also allows her to repay some of the favors she lent her notes, which is a good result.

Miranda hesitated for a moment, then spoke: "Since you have taken this as a small talk between friends about the family situation, then I should tell you about my family situation. ”

"I just said it casually, don't take it seriously." Xiwen looked at Miranda in astonishment and said.

Miranda shook her head and said to Xiwen, "It's different, you don't know how important this information is to me. ”

"Principal Diper has given all of us prefects the task of finding clues to the destruction of the magic node, and the prefects who find the clues will make an important contribution to the school."

"With this important information, as long as I can continue to be at the top of my grade, I will basically be able to overtake Sedreira Black and become the president of the student council in seventh grade."

"Does a student council president matter?" Xiwen asked, feeling a little puzzled.

"That's true for me." Miranda nodded and said. "Actually, I was born into a poor family with many children. I was the youngest of nine sisters. ”

"When I was born, my family was already a little poor, and now I don't have any savings left. Growing up, I had to wear the same robes that my sisters used. ”

Xiwen thought about it for a while, it seemed that Miranda's clothes and books were indeed quite old, and he always thought it was because she was more frugal.

"But at the prom, your dress was pretty good." Xiwen said.

"Well, at that time, Professor Slughorn invited me to join the club, and I became the 'focus' at the ball because I didn't have a dress." She said lightly. "Then he gave me that dress for Christmas, and I'm kind of thankful to him."

Shewin himself has never experienced the embarrassment of being looked at in a strange light because of what he wears. But if you think about it, it should be extremely uncomfortable.

Xiwen wanted to open his mouth to comfort people, but found that he did not have the skills to comfort people, and opened his mouth to say nothing.

"So, as a pure pure-blood nobleman, would you still be willing to make friends with me, a witch from a poor family?" Miranda didn't notice Xiwen's movements, just squeezed out a slightly stiff smile and asked.

"I'm not like those purebred Slytherins, I almost got sorted into Ravenclaw!" Xiwen said with a hippie smile.

Miranda laughed, and her mood became cheerful, and she said, "Ravenclaw won't take a lazy little wizard like you. ”

Then she regained her serious expression and said to Xiwen: "The prefect and the president of the student council have subsidies, which will make my life much better." So you now know how important your information is to me! ”

Xiwen nodded with emotion, and finally thought of a way to comfort him that worked well.

"So, let's publish a book!" He said enthusiastically. "I can be your investor and publish your 'Book of Spells'!"

"I'm sure this book will be selected as the Hogwarts textbook for next year!"
