The Ghost Mask Girl's name is Fanny Aldan, and she is a very quiet-looking brown-haired girl, and her image does not match her performance last night.
If she hadn't taken the initiative to introduce her, Melen would definitely not have recognized her.
Relatively speaking, the fiancé who came with her gave Melendor a few looks.
Because this guy wears a pair of glasses with a pinched nose, slightly messy hair, and a thin body, he has a Harry Potter sense of déjà vu.
They claimed to be an intern reporter for the Wizarding Education Newspaper, and the reason for interviewing Melen was not the "Kevin incident" that everyone was talking about at the moment, but the duel at the banquet.
"So, as one of the parties involved, how do you feel about that duel?"
The short wizard Mike was surprised by Mellen's suggestion that he would not leave the Half-Blood Association, and was immediately blocked by these two reporters.
So he followed Melen to the living room of the Mixed Blood Association in a daze, and they were interviewed together.
"I think Iger might be a little out of shape in the duel."
He said honestly: "At that time, he should have been distracted to pay attention to the group of enemies at the banquet, so if he did it again, it would be difficult to say who would win and who would lose." ”
This was very sincere, and the brown-haired girl Fanny nodded seriously when she heard this, looking very strict.
It's just that when she saw the truthful transcript of her fiancé next to her, she snatched the interview book, and then crossed out the words on it and rewrote a paragraph.
"Michael, a disciple of the Dueling Club's chief master Javinson, admits that he won very narrowly, and if he did it again, he didn't think he could win against Iger Wilson of the Half-Blood Association."
The short wizard was sitting on the couch opposite, unable to see the contents of the interview that Fanny had placed on his lap, so that he was so choreographed without knowing it.
Mellen's eyes were sharp, but he saw it clearly, which surprised him a little.
At last night's banquet, this person spoke for himself, and it may be that he spoke up righteously, out of a sense of justice.
At this moment, why is she still so oriented towards herself?
It's a pity that this person is currently serious, and Melen can't see what she is thinking.
And the "fiancé" sitting next to her, seeing Melun's strange expression, showed a wry smile at Melen-
Mellen also didn't know what he was laughing at.
"So, before the banquet, did you know that this duel is not simple?"
Fanny, the brown-haired girl, was still asking the short wizard questions.
"I guess I have some understanding, Jim of the Ernest family made a bet with me that if Tails loses at the hands of Iger, I will stand up and continue to challenge him."
[Chief dueling master Javinson's disciple Mike indirectly participated in Kevin's plan, but he regretted not facing Egg Wilson in his heyday, which made him feel like he was not victorious.] 】
"You mentioned earlier that you and Iger were away from the battlefield at the beginning of the riot, why did you run into Egger?"
"Coincidentally, I was just thinking about escaping through the window, but I didn't expect Egg to be standing outside, just because I saw those snakes......"
[Mike admits that if he hadn't been lucky enough to meet Iger Wilson, he might have died in that catastrophic attack, and in the face of a dangerous escape situation, Iger Wilson did not forget to save him from his serious injuries and fell to the ground, which greatly touched Mike......]
……
One question and one answer, time flies.
After a few conversations, a full page of notepad was written, and the short wizard was invited out of the drawing room in a daze.
Fanny, a brown-haired girl, then looked at Mellen.
Mellen sat down and waited.
Although he has been interviewed before, it is the first time that he has been interviewed by a wizard, or that his remarks will appear in front of the public in the wizarding world in the future, so of course he needs to be cautious.
First impressions are important, so while she didn't think she would become a public figure in the future, Mellen didn't take it lightly.
After all, fame can at some point be converted into many other benefits, such as wealth, connections, status, and even privilege.
However, the first question Fanny asked next surprised Mellen.
"As an adolescent boy, you don't have a single pimple on your face? And it looks smoother and more white than most girls...... Iger Wilson, can you tell us how you take care of your skin? ”
The brown-haired girl looked serious when she asked, but there was a faint flash of inexplicable excitement in her eyes.
Does the coverage of the Wizard Education Newspaper also include skin care......
The smile on Mellen's face froze a little, and he looked at his fiancé next to Fanny.
The other party gave him another wry smile.
Apparently not counting on him.
Melen then restrained her strange mood and looked back at the brown-haired girl who was looking at her with a serious posture.
"I usually put some cucumber slices on my face to keep my skin hydrated, and then add some ......"
I didn't say it was innate, because saying it wouldn't make a useful impression other than to attract envy and jealousy.
On the other hand, introducing some skin care tips can make some female readers feel close to him.
It's not because of how good this little trick is, and anyone who uses it says it's good.
It's because Melen showed that she usually "takes care of her skin"-
When a person faces strangers or public figures in the newspaper, why is it that some people are very insensitive, and some people are unconsciously able to develop a friendly attitude?
One of the reasons is that the public figure has a certain quality, or label, that is the same as the reader.
People are always the most familiar with themselves, and to put it more extremely, people always like themselves the most.
Therefore, if a person meets someone who is the same or very similar to himself in some way, then subconsciously he will be close.
For example, they all like to have cats, they all like to sleep on rainy days, and they are all very introverted and upright......
In previous lives, some Western politicians liked to use this little trick to show themselves, which can be seen in their personal introductions or daily activities.
What a good father, a good neighbor, likes to follow dramas, has a son who is not angry, loves to watch the song of ice and fire or something.
It's brutal, but it's effective.
At least right now, the brown-haired girl with a seemingly serious expression looked at Melen's gaze, and she unconsciously felt a little surprised and close - her previous attitude seemed to be teasing Mellen, not so serious.
So the second question seems to be relatively normal.
"When we first came in, we heard that you weren't going to leave the Half-Blood Association, why did you think that? Is it because you can't bear to be here? ”
"That's just one aspect."
Mellen said with a little "embarrassment": "On the other hand, I think staying in the Half-Blood Association can more directly confront those enemies who try to split the relationship between pure-blood and half-blood. That's at least more than I can contribute to a pure-blood family, even though I'm still a wizard apprentice and can't do much. ”
This is a bit false and empty, not grounded, but Mellen said these words not to be grounded.
In other words, he said this precisely to cater to those groups who are not grounded.
That is, some of the upper echelons of the wizarding world.
Melen doesn't know much about upper-class politics, but a glimpse shows that although the current half-blood wizards are discriminated against, their status in the wizarding world is slowly rising.
This can be seen from the fact that the old president got a place in a top school.
What does this mean?
It means that although the mainstream pure-bloods naturally despise half-bloods, the small group of people who now control the wizarding world are consciously alleviating this problem.
Mellen felt that although he had been caught in the tiger skin of the Felix family last night, there would not be too many waves in the future when he went to school.
But from his previous conversation with the elder, he saw another possibility.
That is, if you don't choose to join the purebloods, how enthusiastic the purebloods are now and how cold they will appear next.
Although it is nothing to be coldly treated, but now that there is this voice channel sent to the door, Mellen will certainly not let go of the opportunity to add a "buff" to himself.
Skip the petty fights between half-bloods and pure-bloods and go straight to the upper echelons of the wizarding world, or rather the moderate part that dominates.
Isn't that a form of political correctness?
Therefore, his reluctance to leave the Half-Blood Association now can be interpreted as sacrificing the ego and fulfilling the ego.
On the other hand, the higher-ups are certainly not stupid enough to see through Mellen's careful thinking.
But if Mellen's remarks are conducive to promoting their "political ambitions", then of course they will not be able to reject them, but will appreciate them.
Of course, this is only possible if the story is seen, not ignored.
This is not under control.
In short, Mellen's idea is very simple, do your best, obey the destiny of heaven, whether you can get the buff or not, it all depends on luck.
……
Fanny, the brown-haired girl, didn't realize what Mellen's words were for, but that didn't stop her from affirming it.
She didn't think there was any hypocrisy in Merlen's words of falsehood.
In fact, there is basically no one who is interviewed who does not say some false and empty words.
After all, if you don't say false and empty words, you can't say that you are a profit-seeker, right?
Kevin went even further in the newspaper on this point.
For the sake of the future of the wizarding world, our generation is willing to take risks, it is incumbent on us to fight against the enemy, and it can better reflect the glory of pure blood.
didn't mention that this matter involved his mother-in-law's territory, he was currying favor with his mother-in-law and dealing with personal matters.
So the next interview was conducted in a very harmonious atmosphere.
As the interview continued, an image of an honest child who was mature, had a big picture, valued feelings, but was occasionally shy, was quietly born.
This kind of character is the most popular among the "official masters", and considering Mellen's excellent appearance, he also has an advantage in the women's group.
"I have a hunch that if this story gets published, you'll be more popular than Kevin."
At the end of the interview, just as she was shaking hands with the brown-haired girl, Melen heard a sentence suddenly from the "fiancé" who was reviewing the interview script next to her.
This surprised him a little, but before Meren could respond, the brown-haired girl holding his hand nodded earnestly.
"Kevin is smart, but he's so ugly, and of course he can't be as popular as Egger."
Saying this, not only did she not let go of the hand holding Melun, but gently touched the back of Mellen's hand with her other hand, sighing with a face full of sighs.
"Look at this skin, how smooth and tender it is...... Egger, if it weren't for the fact that you had an Adam's apple, I would have thought you were a woman. ”
This fucking met a female hooligan......
The smile on Mellen's face froze, and his eyes couldn't help but look at the "fiancé" on the side.
However, what he didn't expect was that for his fiancée to be such a "tiger and wolf", this guy showed a wry smile at Melen instead.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Wilson, she's that kind of character, please don't mind."
……
The three of them are "chatting" here.
Over there, the old president, Jacques, had returned to the association residence from Chelsea Estate.
He seemed to have encountered some special circumstances, and even looked a little dazed, and he didn't even pay attention to the greet of Vice President Victor.
It wasn't until the old examiner came to him and claimed that preparations for the memory inheritance related rituals had begun that he woke up suddenly.
"Memory inheritance? You mean......"
"Yes."
The old examiner nodded, a smile of relief, "Egg has decided to stay." ”
"It's a great event."
President Jacques smiled, but his expression was still a little absent-minded.
"What bad things have happened to you?" Seeing him like this, the expression on the old examiner's face became very solemn.
"On the contrary, it's a good thing."
President Jacques shook his head and said, "It's so good that I think I'm dreaming." ”
"I'm even skeptical that there's any catch."
"What the hell is going on?" The old examiner was a little confused.
President Jacques whispered something to him.
So the old man was momentarily stunned.
