Chapter Twenty-Six: Bait

The words reached Brace's ears, and Brace's face instantly turned red. It's like being ripped off in front of a lot of people.

He looked angrily at the person who spoke, and before the rebuke and angry scolding could be released, most of the anger in his heart dissipated as if he had been broken in front of him.

For no other reason, because everyone knows the person who spoke.

Malfoy looked at Blais's fly-like face, and the corners of his mouth curled in a sarcastic arc.

At the same time, I also breathed a sigh of relief in my heart. From the moment he set foot on the Hogwarts Express, the results of each of his actions were mostly the opposite of his goals and expectations.

wanted to be friends with Harry, but not only did he not become friends, but he also succeeded in becoming enemies. wanted to reason with Luke, but Luke smashed off a few big hats and made him dizzy, so he could only go home. I also want to be the center of attention at the sorting ceremony. As a result, one Luke, one Harry, stole the limelight from him without a trace.

Finally, when he opened his mouth to taunt today, he finally met a person who was similar to usual, who was scolded but didn't dare to talk back.

Thinking so, Malfoy suddenly felt that the guy named Brace in front of him was actually a little pleasing to the eye.

Professor McGonagall, who had been following Luke's condition, frowned.

"Severus, it seems that there is a problem at your table again, can't you stop it?"

Snape was staring at Harry on the Gryffindor table for a moment, drawn to his eyes.

As Professor McGonagall's brow furrowed, Snape spoke, "If that little guy from the Gaunts can't handle it, I'll handle it." ”

Snape turned his head, gave Professor McGonagall a meaningful look, and said, "I'm going to try to keep the students as little as possible. Let them take care of the little things themselves. ”

He accentuated the words 'trivial'.

Professor McGonagall pondered for a moment, then looked at Dumbledore, who was feasting on a little image.

Dumbledore noticed Professor McGonagall's gaze and smiled at her, "Minerva, your proposal is perfectly correct, we really should add more Chinese food to our menu. ”

He pointed to the food on his plate: "It's called 'dumplings', right, it's really delicious." Do you want to send a few more elves to the Oriental system to learn the cooking methods and dishes there? ”

Before Professor McGonagall could speak, Hagrid, who was holding a rooster in his arms, gave Dumbledore a thumbs up with his oily hand and said, "I think it's necessary to professor!" ”

Professor McGonagall shook her head helplessly. Then she looked in Luke's direction again, and at the same time, she noticed that Professor Quirrell, who was wearing a turban, seemed to be looking at Luke as well.

This made her frown subconsciously, but she really couldn't think of any ill will towards Luke, so she could only stop thinking about it so much, and looked at Luke intently, ready to see what he was going to do with this little thing.

"You! You're insulting our Sabini! ”

After holding it back for a while, Brayce finally held back the words in his heart.

"Oh ~ I insult? What did I do?! ”

Malfoy's face was both contrived and unbelievable. Then the ridicule at the corner of his mouth was even worse.

"Am I insulting you just by telling the truth? Then it is a shame for your family to live in this world. ”

Luke watched Malfoy's performance with interest.

Seriously, he knew very well that Malfoy wasn't giving Humphrey a head start this time. It's just that he feels that the Brace in front of him has insulted the title by claiming to be a nobleman.

Although there were slight deviations in various senses, Luke was satisfied that he had a heart for upholding the honor of the nobility.

Brace's face flushed, his lips pursed, and his hands clenched into fists, one moment raised, the other lowered. It can be seen that he wants to have a seizure, but for various reasons, he can't have a seizure after all.

Humphrey watched Blaise's embarrassment, and couldn't help but smile happily.

He couldn't help but recall that his mother had warned him before he got on the train not to have deep friendships with those aristocratic students, because they often looked down on him.

But now it doesn't seem like this, the heir of the Gaunt family is willing to talk to him, and the Malfoy family is also standing up for himself.

It seems that there are still a lot of good people in this world.

"Thank you......"

As soon as he spoke, Luke, who had been paying attention to his movements, immediately spoke.

He put his right hand on the table and said in a serious and serious manner, "You can not be ashamed of your origins and bloodline, Brace. ”

As soon as Luke said this, the eyes of everyone present returned to him again.

Malfoy's face on the other side was gloomy, and he said Luke like a fierce mouth on the spot, after all, Luke was simply slapping himself in the face when he said this.

But he could faintly see a little bit of the tip of his wand peeking out of the cuff of Luke's right hand. Although you can't see it if you don't look closely, the direction of the wand's tip is obviously itself. Malfoy had suffered a loss at Luke's hand, so he paid special attention to his wand. So he wisely chose to temporarily restrain his bad temper.

He closed his eyes and breathed a sigh of relief, his originally straight back relaxed, and he looked like "start your performance".

The students who reacted more to Luke's words also chose to shut up for the time being after seeing that Malfoy did not speak.

Keeping your mouth shut and judging the situation is something to learn for any little snake. Compared to Humphrey, who was of mixed race. The foul-mouthed, impulsive Brace was the one they were more interested in.

Sorting Hat Fever? Such a reckless man does not go to Gryffindor?

Seeing that everyone was waiting for him to speak, Luke smiled and said, "You actually saw it, and the bloodline you are proud of is just that, in the eyes of Draco or me. ”

Brace, who had thought that Luke would speak for himself, turned red again. But before he could get angry, Luke's voice came again.

"So, I don't care about your bloodline either. After all, no matter how noble your bloodline is, unless you are Merlin's direct blood relative, it doesn't mean much to me. ”

"It's not your blood that really makes me look down on you, it's your behavior."

"Who do you think you're mocking today? You are mocking your classmates, your partners, your future helpers, and the people who can pull you in times of crisis. ”

Luke's words made many of the Snake Academy students frown.

If it was funny for them to watch Malfoy taunt Brace, then Luke's speech wasn't so funny.

Because a lot of them, they've done the same thing as Brace.

They hadn't opened their mouths yet, because they didn't know what Luke was going to say next.
