Someone over there is secretly plotting to start a riot.

Here, Jim, the organizer of the banquet, is hiding in a utility room full of old items, looking down at a crystal ball.

The crystal ball was placed on a stone pillar, and in silence, dynamic images emerged one after another.

That's the scene in the banquet hall at this time-

Jim and his friend Kevin noticed that their father was at the party, so they didn't dare to join in the fun.

But they are also not willing to completely abandon this plan to suppress illegitimate children.

So I had to use this magic item called the Eye of Prying to indirectly control the overall situation.

It's not enough to say that you are in control of the overall situation, because this thing seems to be magical, but the actual function is not strong.

This crystal ball was invented by wizards, and it was actually intended to peek into the private lives of ordinary people - some wizards are very interested in this aspect of things, just as ordinary people like to observe the survival and reproduction of wild animals.

Later, it was redesigned by other wizards, and there were certain enhancements, which were observable even by the apprentices who had first stepped into the wizard's threshold.

Unfortunately, it is limited to an area that has been "set" in advance.

However, although the function is very limited, it is still no problem to use it to find people.

"It's just...... Where the hell are the bastards? ”

Jim, who was staring at the hall with the crystal ball, was secretly puzzled.

In his mind, the bastard was unfamiliar with everyone here, and as a half-blood, he must have been very restrained in this pure-blooded banquet hall.

So he constantly monitored the hall and even the remote corners of the manor, hoping to find an isolated figure.

As a result, nothing was found at all!

Instead, I saw a familiar figure with a relatively strong figure appear in the field of vision before.

But it wasn't long before the man left the hall with another lady who looked very beautiful from her back.

Jim thought it might be Arthur, but intellectually he thought it wasn't possible—

was so badly suppressed by him, how could that guy still have the courage to come to Ernest Manor?

"I didn't see my dad either, it's weird...... Could it be that his camouflage skills are so superb that people can't see any traces at all? ”

Jim had a bit of a headache.

The whole manor is too big, and the vision of the crystal ball is still very narrow, and it belongs to the bird's eye, which makes this kind of search very difficult.

Staying alone in this utility room boringly observing the situation, he will inevitably be impetuous.

Especially when the first two targets, the illegitimate son and the father, are all missing.

So Jim couldn't help but start to resent his friend Kevin.

Kevin asked him for help in this matter, but since last night, I don't know what's going on, and that guy has never had a good look at him.

Even grabbed his arm in the corridor and asked him what the hell he was doing...... What's Kevin embarrassed about?

And at the moment, this matter originally required two people to take turns to monitor, and even Kevin was the main one.

But as soon as the guy heard that his fiancée from the Chelsea family was coming, he couldn't wait to leave the utility room.

said that he was going to greet him, but it had been half an hour, and he hadn't come back for him.

"What is this?"

"Did he think I was one of his dogs?"

Smart people always pay more attention to details, but because of this, they can also find a certain attitude in some details.

The Ernest family is not a top family, and Jim and Kevin can become friends because of the friendship between the elders and the same single parent experience.

But in reality, there is still a clear gap between families.

When the relationship is close, two young teenagers may ignore this.

But now, when there is a rift in the relationship between the two sides, a sense of class that has been intentionally or unintentionally ignored immediately emerges.

This made Jim squint, and the more he thought about it, the more he thought about it, and a certain emotion kept accumulating in his heart.

But the mood didn't stay brewing.

After a while, an attendant came to report it, claiming that the location of the bastard had been discovered.

"Finally found it!"

Jim perked up, and hurried down the hall.

He had to find his friend Kevin before he could start planning.

……

"The piano is not a good instrument to play with a third hand, and I was told that only by touching its keys with real hands can you play the most moving music."

On the second floor of the banquet hall, Kevin, who was sitting on the east side of a round table near the fence, seemed to be very professional, and said to the two girls wearing ghost masks opposite:

"For example, Lady Jennifer of Coleshire, despite being a high-level wizard, always plays with her own hands, and it is because of this that she can be called the number one musician in the kingdom of Blackthorn."

"Jennifer? It is said that on the first day of school in Fort Grant, that lady will go to the friendship star? ”

The long-faced ghost mask looks exactly the same, and the two girls are dressed similarly, so they can only tell who is who from their voices.

At this time, the voice of the speaker seemed a little crisp, it sounded very pleasant, and even people could feel the lively atmosphere in it instantly.

However, when Kevin heard this voice, a flash of disappointment flashed in his eyes.

"Maybe."

He smiled gracefully on the surface.

"St. Grant's opening ceremony is a surprise for the students, and I don't think it would be a surprise if Jennifer went to perform."

"But she is said to have been attacked by a Scarlet Cross wizard last month and was seriously injured."

"How can there be such a thing?"

Kevin was obviously a fan of the lady she was talking about, and immediately frowned when he heard this, "Where did you hear that?" ”

"The Wizard's Daily Morning News mentioned above."

"Then the credibility of this news should not be very high,"

Kevin breathed a sigh of relief, "That newspaper always likes to spread rumors, and it doesn't ...... at all."

Their chat sounded very pleasant, and it didn't happen coldly.

However, as long as you observe a little, you will find that the one sitting next to the lively girl never spoke, but listened so quietly, occasionally looking sideways into the hall a few times, looking a little bored.

But in fact, she wasn't really bored.

Alyssa is just using this attitude to express her dissatisfaction with her friends next to her.

That's right, dissatisfaction.

Because her mother initially reached a marriage intention with Kevin's Felix family without considering her opinion, Alyssa hated Kevin very much.

However, knowing her attitude, the friends around her continued to respond to the other party's words, and from time to time, they turned their heads to ask her about something so-and-so.

Obviously playing Kevin in a round.

However, she is a good friend of herself, why should she help an outsider who is not very familiar?

"I shouldn't be here."

Alyssa secretly regretted it.

It's not long before I'm going to go to school, but I have obvious flaws in my personality.

Alyssa actually knows this, so when she received the invitation from her friend, she thought that maybe it would be good to get used to the crowded environment in advance, so as not to make any jokes after the official admission-

It is said that in that wizarding school, any student needs to share a room with three other roommates.

However, when she got here, she didn't feel any kind of adaptation.

The friends next to her blindly catered to Kevin, and even made her feel a little strange.

As if the only pillar had been removed, Alyssa became more and more uncomfortable with the noisy surroundings.

However, to her relief, the conversation did not last long.

As a waiter hurried over and whispered something in Kevin's ear, the "fiancé", who was quite annoying to Alyssa, changed his face and finally got up and left.

So the familiar friend next to him came back.

"Why didn't you just speak, Alyssa?"

She asked on a twitter, "It's your fiancé, why is he so cold?" ”

"I'm not going to marry him."

Alyssa said dissatisfied.

She'd said it more than ten times to different people.

It's a pity that no one seems to care about her thoughts.

"Since your mother has already decided that it is Kevin, it will be difficult for you to resist."

My friend said disapprehantly: "Call me, Kevin is not bad, although he looks a little ugly, but he has a good personality." ”

"Otherwise, if you look at the guys from the same background as him, which one is not arrogant?"

Well, I've been talking to people for so long before, but now I say people are ugly......

Alyssa was a little speechless at her friend.

Although she doesn't like Kevin, she thinks that guy's appearance is actually within the range of normal people, so it's not ugly, right?

"Winnie's dad didn't approve of Winnie associating with the magician either."

It's one thing in my heart, and it's another thing on the surface, so I heard Alyssa say: "Didn't you compromise in the end? ”

"Winnie, that's different."

The friend sneered: "She is ten times uglier than Kevin, and she can't marry a wizard normally, so she can only make an ordinary person casually." ”

"It's really impulsive enough, she doesn't want to think about it, if she really wants to have a mixed-race child in the future, won't she be bullied to death? Her whole family would be disgraced by this. ”

Alyssa frowned.

I haven't seen this friend in front of me for about three months, which is not a short time, but it is not a long time......

Why didn't she notice that this friend in front of her would be like this?

Thinking that when she was a child, the other party could cry sadly when she saw a kitten injured on the side of the road, but now she has no scruples about saying bad things about another friend, she is inexplicably a little dazed.

"What's wrong with you?"

Seeing that she hadn't spoken for a long time, the girl in the ghost mask asked in wonder, "What's uncomfortable?" ”

"Nothing."

Alyssa shook her head, "I just—"

Before she could finish her sentence, she was interrupted by a sudden cacophony in the hall below.

The voice sounded something wrong, and the two looked sideways, and it turned out that there seemed to be two people clash below.

On one side is a black-haired figure with an outstanding temperament, but because he is wearing a cat face mask, he can't see his specific image.

The person who clashed with him was a tall brown-haired boy who didn't know what was going on, and was pointing at the other party at the moment and roaring some words.

Not far from the two of them, there was a girl in a sky blue dress, who was eagerly wiping some of the wine spilled on her skirt with a handkerchief, looking panicked and looking like she was about to cry.

There were a few people next to him whispering something comforting.

"It was the man who walked carelessly and hit Evelyn."

After a closer look, they understood what was going on, and their friend scoffed.

"But I dare say that the slut must have leaned on that unlucky ghost on purpose."

"Why?"

Alyssa was very strange when she heard this, "Do they have a grudge?" ”

"Of course not, Evelyn is just taking the opportunity to show how popular she is."

The friend said sarcastically: "Look, aren't there several men standing up for her now?" When others look at it, oh, Evelyn is so sought after, she must be a good girl with excellent character and learning, right? ”

"A bunch of idiots, what a fucking laughing person......"

"That's too much, isn't it?"

Alyssa was surprised when she heard this, "Just to show that you are popular, can you just ask others for trouble?" ”

"What is this?"

My friend said disdainfully: "In the wizarding world, there are more things than this, if even this- oh, my god ......"

She let out a sudden cry of surprise, and then, as if she had seen something unscathed, she leaned sideways on the fence and looked down carefully.

Seeing this, Alyssa turned her head to look, and found that it was the two men below who were entangled, and they had already begun to fist and kick each other.

Or it can't be regarded as fists and kicks, the tall and strong brown-haired boy just grabbed the collar of the black hair's chest with his hand, and was suddenly knocked to the ground by the other party's punch, covering his cheeks and wailing in pain, and didn't get up for a long time.

However, perhaps because of too much force, the mask that the dark-haired boy wore on his face accidentally fell off.

"That's right, it's really too much!"

The friend who was disdainful before suddenly became indignant at this moment.

"I've never seen them bully people like this! Never! ”
