Chapter 53: The Choice of the Little Snake

In the evening, Brie had just come down from the corner tower when he saw the seventh-year prefect outside the lounge, the one who had come to find Brie after making a big fuss in the lounge.

"To make it official, I'm a seventh-year prefect, Baker Bernard, and I think we can talk."

Bernard was still just as haughty, or rather he had lowered his head, but Brie didn't feel it at all.

"I guess I'm not mistaken, we've met before, just a week after school started."

Brie's words reminded Bernard of the embarrassment of being rejected when he vowed to woo Brie in front of his junior class.

This made him lose his prestige at that time, and let the sixth-year bitch succeed, that is, his fiancΓ©e helped a guy in the seventh year who didn't deal with him to become the new Slytherin seventh-year master, weakening his potential and making him unable to hold his head up in the family!

His uncle's family is keeping an eye on his inheritance!

The Bernard family's interests are paramount, allowing a certain degree of infighting in the family, which annoys him.

"Hmph, I think Mr. Oude is a smart man, and what I will give to Mr. Oude will be something you have never seen before, and this will be a help to you."

"Hogwarts doesn't teach young wizards about powerful dark magic and how to make enough money from those half-blood, Muggle wizards, which the Bernard family is good at, and I think you'll be interested."

Black magic?

I'm sorry, Brie is not sensitive now, he can access a lot of black magic, as for making money, maybe Brie will consider it later, but before that, he needs strong strength as support, otherwise why protect his wealth.

Brie is not a greedy money fan, he doesn't need much money now, Bernard's remarks can't move him, not to mention that this guy looks like Brie has taken a big advantage is really disgusting, or Brie should agree first, and then cheat him, it's a good idea.

"What are you doing?"

"Selwyn?"

Bernard frowned, his good work was interrupted, this Selwyn had found Brie so quickly.

Brie looked at a rough-looking teenager and walked over, saying that he was a teenager but he was burly, and he looked like a bully young man that Brie met when he was in a welfare home, but it was generally easy to deal with this kind of person, but I don't know if this person was just as stupid.

Maybe it's the same arrogance as this Bernard.

"Bernard, I don't think you're qualified to be involved in this." Selwyn snorted, the corners of his eyes tightened slightly, and there was a Sichuan character on his eyebrows, he stared at Bernard, sneered, and said viciously:

"What qualifications does an incompetent Bernard have to participate in this great cause, you should go and fight with your brother for the family property, this is the tradition of Bernard."

"Get out!" Although Selwyn is shorter than Bernard, it will not make him appear weak in the slightest, and Bernard does not dare to say anything more, because Selwyn's family are crazy, even if they are so crazy that only Selwyn is left, no one dares to underestimate him.

Bernard glared at Brie angrily as he left, he gave up his original plan, but he would not be unable to increase his capital in this matter, knowing that it is not the acquisition of money that increases his wealth, and the reduction of other people's assets is also a kind of profit, which can also make him more favored by his family.

Bernard said fiercely in his heart: Brie Ode, your red eyes are not welcome to everyone!

Brie watched the fight between the two indifferently, although their spearhead was himself, but this could not be said that Brie was at his mercy and pulled into the quagmire by them.

Brie, who was about to turn away, was stopped by a pair of large hands.

Maybe Selwyn had the character of being polite, at least he was doing to Brie now.

"I'm sorry to disturb you, but I don't think I mean anything but to remind you that the Slytherin fight for you has begun, and that those red eyes and your magical talent can't be ignored, and that the end of Christmas is a signal for Slytherin to start moving, some people have the support of their families, and some people are ready to go it alone......"

"What do you mean?"

Brie stared into Selwyn's blue eyes, there was a madness in them, but he had been suppressing, perhaps shrewd, but still proud.

Pride and arrogance are the beginning of losing their minds, and Brie doesn't like to deal with this kind of person very much, who knows if they will turn into a blood-colored python that chooses people to devour at any time.

Selwyn retracted his politeness and said expressionlessly: "Show your talents, let the Slytherin approve it, only in this way can you prove your relationship with that adult, and the descendants of Slytherin cannot be oppressed and do nothing." ”

"Hehe, maybe you can show the Parseltongue, which will allow me to follow in your footsteps immediately!"

Selwyn took a deep breath and calmed himself.

"We've covered up the secrets for you, and I don't think any Slytherin snake will say more...... I'm looking forward to everything after that. ”

Selwyn looked comical after saying the gentlemanly salute, he didn't do it very often, but he did it anyway.

He said to himself: I hope you are really a descendant of that adult...

Brie stared at Selwyn in the distance.

"Crazy, why should I listen to you?"

Brie thought that what else could be gained from these two people, but in the end it was just a threatening look and a headless promise, why did Brie need Selwyn's follow, he didn't have the habit of ganging up, some dispensable people only needed to admire him, and they didn't have to be so close.

Slytherin started to shoot because of his eyes?

Brie chuckled, he wasn't blinded by the bait, but looked at their methods sensibly, and he didn't have to pay much for what he needed, maybe these people just wanted a promise.

But Brie won't promise others, maybe a lie can be erased for others, but his promise is valuable, at least Brie sticks to his bottom line.

Don't make promises easily, don't break promises easily.

But who was that guy just now?

Brie was very sentient, and when Bernard appeared, Brie sensed that someone was looking at them, and she didn't look away until Selwyn moved away from hers.

……

What Brie didn't know when he returned to the dormitory was that Bernard didn't go back to Slytherin immediately after leaving, but found a guy Brie knew - Arnold Flint, the former second-year male prefect and the leader who started the incident and kicked Brie out of Slytherin in the first place.

"Mr. Arnold, please wait."

"Ah, Prefect Bernard?"

Arnold trembled and didn't dare to move, it was Bernard who had stripped him of his prefect in the first place, and made the Slytherin people dare not approach him again, which made him have a bad time in the house, and even some half-bloods rode on his head to make a fortune.

But he had no choice, his cousin Mascu Flint had given up on him, and he didn't dare to have any means of revenge.

"I'm sorry, I'm just a little surprised." Arnold's head wasn't full of grass, he understood that the Slytherin people had been currying favor with Brie lately, and he had heard what little Malfoy had said about Brie at the Malfoy family's Christmas feast, which was a bellwether that many families inquired about the boy and understood his talent.

So some families let their children ease their relationship with Brie, but strangely, some big families are also approaching Brie, which is very intriguing.

It is clear that the answer is already in front of him.

"I don't know what I can do for you, Prefect Bernard?"

Arnold is fed up with ostracism, fed up with having no rights, fed up with the family's new attitude towards him during the Christmas holidays, and he's going to change it all!

Bernard chuckled under his breath.

"You're very knowledgeable, not like that Brie Ode!"

Looking at Arnold's obedient and bowed head, Bernard understood that such a little snake was poisonous, could kill, and was a good weapon.

"Spread the word, and I'll let you reinstate the prefect position when it's done."

Arnold's eyes flickered, and he immediately said, "Please say it, I will definitely be able to complete it." ”

"Brie Ode's eyes, you know, red eyes......" Looking at Arnold's unknown appearance, Bernard remembered that it was just a side line of the Flint family, and did not know the secrets.

"This is the sign of the descendants of Slytherin, there is no second family in the wizarding world in Europe!"

Slytherin!

Arnold's legs trembled, and he jerked up at Bernard, who seemed to be unable to get out.

Holding his wand against Arnold's throat, Bernard said, "Now Slytherin has two voices, one is to woo Ode, the other is to suppress Ode, you know, we have a grudge against him." ”

The wand pushed forward a bit, and Bernard snapped: "Do you know how you will live after he has power in Slytherin, maybe he won't make a move on you, but everyone understands the rules of Slytherin, and there are a lot of little ones who tend to be inflammatory." ”

Arnold swallowed, the strange sensation at the tip of his wand tingling his throat.

Bernard lowered his wand, leaned into Arnold's ear, and whispered, "The only choice you can have is me, go and tell Dumbledore about this secretly, and tell everyone in the house..."

Bernard paused.

"But not now, those people haven't entered the market yet, now is not the time."

Tapped Arnold on the shoulder, waking him up.

"And what about your choice?"

Does Arnold still have a choice?

"I, Arnold Flint, will never say anything about talking to Baker Bernard today, and I'll get the job done."

This is indeed an opportunity, and in order to return to glory, Arnold is willing to take such a risk, just to pass on a message, which is very simple, and there is no danger if no one else finds out.

Bernard smiled with satisfaction, no small things can be done by yourself, this is the rule taught by the big family, because the slightest clue can lead to a situation from which no one can recover.

"Then please remember not to say what we are talking about, it will not do you any good, you should know what Bernard stands for."

"Of course, I understand that only Mr. Bernard can keep his promises."

As long as Arnold can become a prefect, he can't tell the secret, or those who lose their bets will dismantle him.

……

After the two left, a figure walked out, it was Alyssa Shafiq, the sixth-grade prefect.
