Volume 1 The Scourge of Witchcraft and the Enemies of a Thousand Years Ago Chapter 112 The Increasingly Strange Castle

Professor Watson returned to the podium and sat down, his reticent appearance again. In this way, until the bell rang for the end of class, he just nodded politely to the students and did not speak again.

While the other students were heading out of the classroom, Riel and Ian hurried to Alan's neighborhood.

"What did you all talk about?" asked Riel, "I think this old man is crying and laughing all the time?"

Alan was still thinking about it when he was interrupted by Riel.

"Uh...... Nothing, it's just something about Alyssa. Since Ian was also there, Alan didn't elaborate, just gave him a look: "I'll tell you later."

"Hmm. Riel nodded, understanding, and didn't ask any more questions.

When they walked out of the classroom door, Freya was already waiting for them at the door, and the four of them walked out of the mixing tower together and walked through the general hall.

"As soon as you guess, you'll know you're the last to come out. As soon as Alan stepped out of the door of the general hall, he heard Cynthia's voice coming from his right, "I've been waiting for you for a long time. ”

"I'm sorry. Alan smiled and said, "A little personal habit, don't mind." ”

"As long as Freya is safe and sound. Cynthia said and looked behind them, noticing Freya still following Riel. It seems that Freya has been fond of hiding behind Riel ever since Temnabo Jr. came to trouble them.

Cynthia was stunned for a moment, then looked at Riel a little and smiled, "No wonder...... The physique does resemble Frey. ”

"What?" Rare was confused.

"Freya is easily shy and not very good at dealing with strangers. Cynthia looked at Freya with a wicked smile and said, "And she likes to hide behind her brother the most, when she's in trouble, or when she meets someone she doesn't know how to get along with." ”

"Oh, Cynthia, you...... Don't tell anyone about this kind of thing!" Freya's face immediately turned red and she said in disgust.

"Okay, I just want to amuse you. Cynthia smiled, then asked Alan, "Is that kid from the Temnabo family causing you trouble again?"

"That's right...... But thanks to Professor Watson's involvement, he didn't make much of a fuss. Allen said.

"Yo, then I'm really underestimating him...... I didn't expect him to be quite fat, and he really dared to provoke Freya. Cynthia scoffed, "Looks like I was too merciful last time?"

"Last time?"

"This kid has been pestering her since the magic was done, not only hanging around our dormitory building, but also waiting for Freya near the entrance to the dining room and garden, so that she doesn't dare to go out alone. Cynthia pouted and said helplessly, "The night before yesterday was even more excessive, it was already eight o'clock when I accompanied Freya out of the library, and he was waiting for us at the entrance of the garden, so that Freya would agree to be his girlfriend!"

"Poof!" Alan and Riel laughed at the same time.

"That'...... Then he's really persistent. Alan laughed.

"But I used the Thunder Charm to make a few holes in his shoes, so I could shake him off. Cynthia shrugged and said, "Yesterday finally stopped for a day, but if I knew he was still so dead today, I should have just chopped him into a pig's head!"

"Oh, please don't talk about him, don't mention him again......" Freya had already hid behind Cynthia when she heard this, her hands on her shoulders, and her head buried in her back. Although I couldn't see the expression, just by listening to her tone, I knew that it must have gone from cheeks to ears by now.

"Okay, okay, don't talk about it, I won't talk about it...... I just get angry when I see this kind of person. It was really embarrassing to see Freya, and Cynthia had to pat her hand for comfort.

"It's really rare that I got along so well before I got married to his family. Riel said with a smile.

However, Cynthia didn't say anything when she heard this, she looked up and glared at him, turned her head and said to Allen, "Then we'll go first, see you tomorrow afternoon." With that, she took Freya's hand and walked away.

"Uh...... I...... Did she say something she didn't like to hear?" Seeing Cynthia's reaction, Riel glanced at Alan blankly.

"This ...... I don't know ......," Alan said, shaking his head as well.

"Then I'll go to dinner first. Ian seemed to be hungry, said goodbye to them, and headed straight for the restaurant.

As usual, they went to Will to borrow the key, and then went back to the fourth floor.

However, to their surprise, when they came to the door of their room, they found that the door was not locked.

"It's strange that Ivan is in the house at this time?" said Riel.

But as soon as he finished speaking, he heard the sound of hurried footsteps in the room, and the sound of something colliding.

Alan quickly opened the door to check on the situation, and found Ivan crouching near his bed with his knees crossed, while the small table next to the wardrobe where their brothers usually used to hold their teacups was gently shaking.

Probably it hurt a little bit, Ivan's expression was a little painful, Alan wanted to go over and help him up, but was stopped by Riel: "Have you forgotten his attitude last night? ”

Alan was a little hesitant when he heard this, so he dispelled the thought just now. By the time he looked there again, Ivan had risen from the ground and sat down on the edge of his bed.

But Ivan's expression didn't seem to be natural, he didn't look up at them, and his right hand kept clenching tightly, as if he was holding something.

Alan was a little puzzled, but he couldn't ask him anything, so he and Riel each poured a glass of water and sat down to rest.

However, Ivan did not stay in the house much longer, and it was not long before he pushed the door open again.

"Hey, you should tell me what Professor Watson and you both talked about, right?" Rare asked when he saw Ivan gone.

"Well, it's not a big deal...... Mainly related to Alyssa. Alan said after a little thought.

"What's the matter?" As soon as he heard that it was related to Alyssa, Riel immediately became interested.

Professor Watson was also involved in the investigation of those two cases, and unlike Professor Fran, he did not do so privately, but as a coroner. As soon as he talked about these two cases, Alan involuntarily began to frown slightly, "So I think the credibility of the information he provided is much higher than what Professor Fran said." ”

"What's new?"

"First of all, it's about Arn BΓ©resto. Alan stared at him and said, "He knows more about Arne BΓ©restu's personal information, and he even directly refutes one of my previous assumptions......"

"What speculation?"

Arne Burestu...... He's an orphan and has no family......" Alan said with some hesitation.

"Orphan?huh, I guess I guessed right this time?" Rare was a little complacent when he heard the news, "Sure enough, his black robe wasn't the point...... It must have been that he didn't know where he stole it, but the person who lost it didn't bother to report it because he didn't see that the loss was too big. ”

"Hmm...... Probably......" Alan said thoughtfully, frowning, "and secondly, some of the specific measures taken by the Magical Management Society to cover up the truth of these two cases, as well as some of the mistakes he himself made in those two cases fourteen years ago...... For example, he was given gag orders and amnesticized by the staff conducting the investigation, and for example, he failed to uphold the Isgar oath and was forced to compromise with the Magical Management Society to submit a fake autopsy report in order to protect his family. ”

"Amnestics, if it's the kind that Professor Rochel did to me, I can understand that...... But what is the autopsy report?" Rare was confused, "Is it important?"

"Quite important...... Because the cause of death recorded in this report is the final result of the final announcement by the Magical Management Society, it needs to be signed by the coroner himself before it can take effect...... In other words, once this report is submitted, all the responsibility for the cause of death of these victims will fall on the coroner. ”

"Wow...... That is, if there is any further entanglement in this matter later, these ministers can shirk the blame!" said Riel indignantly, "It's a shame to shirk responsibility!"

"It's not just the ministers. Alan nodded, "These decisions are made by all the top leaders of the entire Magic Management Association, including the president and vice presidents...... In other words, as long as the interests of their family are not involved, they do not care about the lives of other people...... This magical management association was founded in the name of them to serve the people of this continent, but in fact it was a tool for them to enrich themselves and use their power for personal gain. ”

"Sooner or later, these people will be damned!" said Riel, waving his fist, "Sooner or later they will be exposed for doing so many shady things!"

"I don't think so......," Alan shook his head in surprise when he heard this, "they've done a good job on the surface, at least not many people have doubted it so far. Since the Krivari Magical Society is the most authoritative administrative body on the continent, the news released here is of course very reliable...... Although it is not known what kind of accident they made up, almost everyone believed it and presumably did not spend less money to appease the families of the victims...... But as long as no one tells the truth about this matter, the money they spent is only a drop in the bucket compared to what they will accumulate later. ”

"Then their acting government will end sooner or later!"

"Hmm...... I hope so. Alan sighed and said, "But the last point, and the one I care about the most...... That is, the school doesn't seem to be as calm as it seems......"

"What do you mean by that?"

"Think about it...... What's going on in this school?" Alan asked, staring at Riel earnestly.

"Uh...... Isn't that what happened fourteen years ago?"

"And what, a little earlier?"

"Uh, you mean...... The destruction of the Stone family?"

"Well, but that's not all...... What else?"

"What else?" Rare scratched his cheeks a little, "I can't remember." ”

"The treasures of the Stone family have also disappeared here. ”

"Ah...... That's right!"

"So, don't you think this castle ...... Isn't it ominous?" Alan stared at Riel tightly, "At least, it makes me feel a little weird......"
