Volume 1 The Scourge of Witchcraft and the Enemies of a Thousand Years Ago Chapter 128 Favoritism

"You guys?" Professor Stubone was stunned and looked behind Cynthia, only to realize that she was followed by Alan. But he didn't enter the house, just tilted his head sideways and looked through the door.

"yes, it's just the two of us. Cynthia tilted her head and said lightly.

Professor Stubone opened his mouth a little regretfully, but before he could say anything, Cynthia had already walked out of the room and closed the door. Don't forget to leave a message for Professor Stubourne: "I'll give you back the key tomorrow morning, don't worry." ”

"Why do you want to do this?" Alan was a little puzzled by Cynthia's behavior just now, "What is the revolving book house, is it important?"

"It's not just important. Cynthia glanced back at him, "That's a place where no one can go in except my titular grandfather and a handful of professors...... Ordinary students don't even have the right to know where it is. ”

Alan was secretly startled and looked back as he followed her downstairs. The door to the room didn't open, and it looked like Professor Stubone wasn't trying to chase him out.

"What's in there?" asked Allen.

Cynthia looked at him with a smug expression: "There's everything you want to know." ”

Alan didn't understand at all, but when she wanted to ask again, Cynthia had already spoken again: "It contains the original manuscripts of all the books on this continent from ancient times to the present...... All the books, got it?"

"All the books?the manuscripts?" Alan was stunned for a moment, but in the next second, he understood Cynthia's intentions - she seemed to be heading for the magical forbidden book!

"Are you going to go there to find that book...... The original manuscript?!"

"Shhhhhhhh ”

"Uh...... Sorry......" Alan whispered apologies. But as soon as he remembered the warnings of old Adrian and Heplus, he panicked a little.

I thought that this was the end of the matter, but now Cynthia wanted to take the initiative to approach it.

"I don't know who stole it last night, but if I can get inside......" Cynthia said, patting the pen and stack of parchment in her arms, looking ready.

"What are you doing with so much paper?"

"You can find all the books you want, but you can't bring them out. Cynthia explained, "The book was very thick, and I don't think we could have it all in a short period of time with our memory. ”

That is to say...... You're going to have to copy it down!"

"That's right, what's wrong?" Cynthia gave him a faint look, "I've lost something so important, of course I have to get it back." ”

Cynthia seemed so natural when she said this, as if she had decided in her mind that the book belonged to her.

"Uh......" But Alan didn't know how to contradict her, because that was indeed the one she found first. He didn't know how to persuade her to stay away from it, for though old Adrian and Hepples didn't have any affection for it, it had done them little harm, at least so far.

"But is it okay for you to do that?" asked Alan after a long time, "take me into such an important place......

"It's okay, as long as we can get the key, he can't control what we do next. Cynthia looked confident, "And even if you run into someone from the Discipline Inspection Committee over there, it doesn't matter, you've already shown your face in front of him, and no one has a reason to deduct your points." ”

"Hmm......" Alan still hesitated.

"I know exactly how he got to where he is today...... In order to pat my grandfather's ass, he came and went to my house a lot, and every important holiday he would bring boxes and boxes of gifts to my house, so I could understand his weaknesses well. Perhaps everything was going according to her plan, Cynthia looked quite excited, and smiled again, "He will not dare to disobey my grandfather's instructions in the slightest." While I'm not a big fan of bluffing, there's no denying that it works against some people at some point...... And it's the quickest and most time-saving thing to do, and I don't want to waste time on things that don't matter. ”

By this time they had returned to the first floor.

Alan looked around and saw that Alyssa was in a corner not far away, still keeping her head down and silent as before.

"Let's go with you first. Alan said to Cynthia, and walked over to Alyssa.

"Listen to Riel, you didn't go to town with them either?" asked Alan as he walked up to Alyssa.

But the strange thing is that Alyssa was not as excited as usual when she heard Alan's voice this time, and she didn't even raise her head, but replied softly: "Hmm." ”

"Why?"

"I've been busy lately, and I have a lot of things to revise. Alyssa said simply.

Alan noticed that there seemed to be something wrong with her emotions, so he asked, "What's wrong with you today, are you not feeling well?"

"Nope. Alyssa's answer remained brief, and then fell silent.

Alan didn't know what to say for a moment, and the atmosphere seemed rather awkward and a little weird.

At this time, Cynthia also walked over: "Yo, I thought you were in such a hurry, but I saw her." ”

Although this sentence was said to Alan, her tone obviously made Alyssa feel very uncomfortable, so that Alyssa instantly raised her head and opened her eyes with anger.

However, compared to before, Alyssa seemed to have a little more disgust in her eyes this time. If she had only been watching in disgust before, now she was undoubtedly staring.

Cynthia also didn't give an inch, and looked at Alyssa. It seems that the mere touch between the two of them will produce sparks.

Alan stood between them, looking a little embarrassed. He didn't know who to persuade, let alone how.

At this moment, a cold voice rang out behind them: "You will come to my office after class." ”

All three of them were startled, and suddenly looked at the place where the voice came from, and realized that the person who spoke in such a unique way was none other than Menisha Frost, the professor of the Department of Water Elements who was going to give them a lecture later.

In the last class, Alan felt very strange, this middle-aged woman who looked to be in her early forties spoke in such an old grammar that it was completely different from what they usually said, so that Alan couldn't help but ask her which ancient man she was imitating.

Looking at her face again, it was not only pale but also a little haggard, and she didn't look very good in her mental state, a bit like she looked like she had been reading all night until dawn.

"Maybe it's quite an admirer, otherwise how could she be so obsessed with it......" Alan thought.

However, when he came back to his senses, he realized that Professor Frost had left, and that she had just said something to Alyssa.

"Oh, I see, it looks like you've managed to get the professor's attention. Cynthia was obviously still angry about Professor Frost's approach in the last class, which was too biased in favor of Alyssa, "But I'm sure the professors are fair, and you're probably not so lucky in this class." ”

Alyssa wanted to be angry, but seeing that Professor Frost had already gone up the stairs, she didn't want to entangle Cynthia any longer, so she followed without looking back.

"Hey!wait!" Alan exclaimed, "how long are you going to be in her office?"

"I don't know. Alyssa paused and replied with her head bowed.

"Uh...... "Then ......," Alan thought for a moment, and said, "Then Riel and I will wait for you in the dining room for half an hour, the old time, in the old place." ”

Alyssa opened her mouth, looking a little hesitant, but finally nodded and agreed.

Looking at Alyssa's back as she walked away, Alan always felt that something seemed wrong with her today, and it seemed to be because of him. But he thought about it for a long time and didn't figure out where he had provoked her, because he had been in his room for most of the past few days, and he hadn't seen her at all, and he didn't even know that she was also at school.

"Let's go, why are you still stunned?" Cynthia also hurriedly followed, looking eager to hurry to class, as if she was looking forward to what would happen in this class next.

Alan guessed it too.

Although Cynthia pretended not to care very much, he knew that with her character, she would definitely have to fight with Alyssa again.

But he had no other way to stop it, so he sighed softly and followed.

However, what happened in this lesson was not only a big disappointment for Cynthia, but also completely unexpected for Allen.

Once again, Professor Frost left all the chances of getting a score to Alyssa!

"How could she be like this!" Looking at the back of Alyssa, who left with Professor Frost, Cynthia was really angry this time, "This is really unfair! Obviously, more than half of the chances today are my hands that raised first!"

"yes......" Alan nodded. He was also a little puzzled, although Cynthia and Alyssa were far away today, he could clearly tell that in most cases, Cynthia was the quicker to raise her hand.

But Professor Frost seemed to have only Alyssa in his eyes, completely ignoring the others.

"Although Alyssa has shown extraordinary talent in this class, it is not biased in favor of this, is it?" Alan thought, "and Cynthia's talent is not bad......"

"I bet she's going to lose her job!" Cynthia looked a little unsettled, "I'm going to tell my grandfather everything, she's humiliating the Winslow family!"

Professor Frost hadn't gone far before she seemed to hear it, but she only glanced back at Cynthia faintly, and there was no expression on her face.

But after a few moments, Cynthia's anger had subsided, and she dismissed the idea, because she didn't really want to have too much contact with her titular grandfather.

Allen, for his part, never said anything. Because he knew that she might just be impulsive, and with what he knew about Cynthia, she wasn't such a person. And she wasn't angry because she didn't get the score, probably just because she lost to Alyssa again.

Seeing Cynthia's emotions slowly calm down, Alan wanted to comfort her a few words, but the words she just said reminded him: "Humiliate the Winslow family?"

Suddenly, a bold guess came to his mind: "Do you mean it...... What kind of blood feud does Professor Frost have with the Winslow family?"
