harry potter book of crimes

There is an old saying in the UK, "Donotash?your?dirty?linen?in?public" (Donotash?your?dirty?linen?in?public) in front of outsiders. This means that family scandals should not be made public.

To be honest, when it comes to family scandals, whose family doesn’t have one or two bad things?

Unfortunately, what Mrs. Flint was exposed to by her own son this time was not something as common as "dirty sheets".

However, although Maka was deeply disdainful of Marcus's behavior of stabbing his mother in the face, she had no intention of stopping him. Because even if Marcus' desire to sell his mother for glory was obvious, his mother's

It is even more contrary to normal ethics and full of evil deeds.

Glancing slightly towards Ogden at the Ministry of Magic, Maka knew just by looking at his disgusted expression that Marcus, who intended to profit from it, would probably not be able to escape the follow-up investigation. If something was found out by then,

Come, then it's time for him to go to Azkaban with his mother.

But at the moment, Marcus doesn't seem to realize how upright and selfless this Wizengamot interrogator named Ogden is, and he actually keeps showing off his merits in front of him!

"Iluli, be careful and just walk slowly..."

Maka was looking at the chaotic and noisy scene with her lips curled up, watching the somewhat unexpected ending with cold eyes, when she heard Pansy's concerned voice coming from beside her.

He immediately stopped caring about the subsequent development of the matter. He turned around and saw the Slytherin girl and the young master Moser helping Iluli to sit down.

After seeing enough of the filth in the world, he could turn around and witness a warm scene that made him sigh slightly.

A girl who only knew how to insult her classmates, and a boy who came from a dirty family - who could have imagined that such a pair would bring a touch of warmth to Maka's heart at such an opportunity.

What do you mean?

"...I haven't given you a chance in vain."

"What?"

Pansy didn't hear Maka's muttering clearly, but she saw the inexplicable smile on the other person's face.

"nothing."

Maka shook her head, then took out a potion bottle from her waist and threw it casually.

"Tonic, give her a drink! She's fine, she just hasn't had any water or food for a long time... Remember to take one bottle in six doses, with a few minutes between each time, so as not to overpower her and overwhelm her.

"

"Oh, thank you, thank you!"

Pansy, who had caught the potion bottle, was thanking her when she suddenly felt Iluli, who was leaning in her arms, struggling to get up, causing her to quickly hold her shoulders.

"Don't move, take the medicine first - Professor MacLean gave me a bottle of vitality tonic, you will feel better soon!"

"No, Pansy...let me get up first..."

Pansy didn't expect that Iluli, who seemed to have collapsed long ago, still had a lot of strength left. With a strong support, she gently moved her hand away and sat up slowly, then slowly turned to Maka's side.

direction.

"Mr. McClain... those two big spiders were sent by you, right? Iluli... thank you for your help! Without you... I would have died in the underground detention room just now."

After saying this, she seemed like she could no longer support her body, and her arms softened and she was about to fall towards Maka. Seeing this, Maka quickly waved her hand to hold her upper body up in the air.

"No need to thank you. If you look at it, you may not have a death wish. Otherwise, when that boy Moser escaped, why didn't you find a way to go with him?"

In Maka's view, if Iluli wanted to escape, she would have the chance and the ability to escape from the Flint family. Even the servant contract could only be regarded as an obstacle that would require some effort.

Iluli, who was supported by Maka in the air, leaned back into Pansy's arms with Pansy's help, and after that, she weakly shook her head.

"I want to stay in the Flint family, but that doesn't mean I want to die in this family. What's more, I just made the first real friend in my life."

As she spoke, she suddenly pursed her lips and said:

"But...well, maybe you are right, Mr. MacLean! Because when I heard that Madam wanted to kill me, although I was shocked, I really didn't seem to feel much fear..."

"Iluli!"

Pansy hugged her petite body from behind, seeming a little afraid of losing this friend. After all, it was obvious that Pansy was not only the first "friend" for Iluli, but also vice versa.

"Anyway, let's take the medicine first!" Maka waved her hand and said, "In this indifferent world, as long as there is one person who cares about you, then you are lucky - look at it! Even your own son

The people who have all betrayed themselves are right in front of us!"

…

Even though there were no reporters at the scene, the scandal of the Flint family quickly spread throughout the British wizarding world.

This unusual spread speed is naturally "thanks" to those pure-blood families who are afraid of being late.

For people like them, the overthrow of the Flint family has become an inevitable thing, and stepping on the despicable Flint family seems to show the world that they will never join in the sleaze.

Attitude.

However, their seemingly childish behavior is actually not meaningless.

Although anyone with a clear eye can tell at a glance that these pure-blood families are almost all the same, and only a handful of them can honestly say that they have never done a single evil thing. But in this world, how many people can really see behind them?

What about sin?

After all, the vast majority of ordinary people just flip through the newspapers during breakfast time every day, and then rush to work while lamenting their dissatisfaction with life. In their eyes, there is no such clear black and white, only others do it for them.

The portion of ashes placed in front of you.

But it happens that these seemingly insignificant people are the ones who maintain the silent operation of the whole world. The childish statements of those families are actually made for these people to see.

Because those pure-blood families understand that as long as ordinary people believe it, even Maca and the International Federation of Wizards cannot easily touch them.

It's just that you can't do it easily. Not only Maka knows this, but the pure-blood families also know it.

Therefore, on the other hand, their eagerness to express their stance is actually conveying a sense of submission to a certain extent. Even if these families have not yet clearly taken sides, they are really a little scared this time.

The Flints are a big family, there's no doubt about it.

Even if there are many pure-blood families who don't agree with them, the fact is there - when many families are experiencing various degrees of decline, the Flint family is still living happily, which shows that this born-out family is still alive.

The wizarding family has an extraordinary heritage since ancient times.

Similarly, the Malfoy family is also the leading pure-blood family in the British wizarding world.

Even though Lucius, the current head of the family, almost had to wait for death in Azkaban, he was able to survive with only the support of his wife, which shows the strength of the family.

But now, one of these two big families is almost dependent on Maka, and the other is about to overthrow. How can the other families not be worried?

However, Maka really doesn't have much interest in those families who have good intentions, just like Haierbo basically doesn't want to pay much attention to these unattractive guys.

At this moment, in the Great Hall of Hogwarts.

"Boy, your mother is finished this time, and your brother's life will probably not be much better in the future. But like I said before - there is nothing sinful about your last name, and you don't need to give it up.

On the contrary, some things need to be done with this surname..."

Looking at Moser who was sitting at the dining table stuffing food into his mouth, Maka chuckled and said:

"So, treat the surname 'Flint' well. It's up to you whether you can make it a respectable name in the future."

In a situation where neither mother nor son is likely to get anything good, someone will always inherit the Flint family's fortune.

Although Mercer also has a very young sister, according to the Flint family's practice, his sister should inherit the position of head of the family, but Maca felt that it was more appropriate to let the little guy Mercer do it.

After all, this kid can be considered one of the main people who caused today's incident. I believe this can leave a deep enough impression on him and open up a new path for his future life.

"I won't do it!"

Facing Moser, who had his mouth full and expressed vague objections, Maka didn't say anything more - this boy still has a long life in the future, and with his black and white character, I'm afraid...

Sooner or later you will figure it out yourself.

Then, Maka turned around slightly and said:

"Pansy, just let Charlotte take care of you here. Your friend will also be well taken care of in the school hospital. I think you should rest assured. Let me see, you'd better go to class as soon as possible! At least he's still there

I can make it to the last two classes in the afternoon.”

After returning to Hogwarts, Draco immediately went back to his dormitory to get books and go to class. He didn't even follow everyone to send Iluli to the school hospital. Pansy, on the other hand, not only treated her friend

She couldn't let go, even the little guy Moser was very concerned about her.

Because she saw that Iluli seemed to have always cared about this young master, which made her also care about him.

After hearing Maka driving her away, Pansy nodded gently, then turned around and walked towards the side door. But only halfway there, she suddenly turned around and bowed deeply towards Maka.

Bowed.

"Oh, you are a pretty good professor! I remember Miss Parkinson's previous temper..." Charlotte on the side patted Maka on the shoulder vigorously and said, "Well, I will call you 'Big Education' from now on."

Home'!"

Maka was shaken by her patting, and the smile on her face was only helpless.

"...Can you be gentler?" (To be continued)
