harry potter book of crimes

Chapter XX: Willie Blois

The weather has gradually changed recently, and there are gradually more clouds in the sky, making it look a little gloomy. The temperature has dropped again and again, so students at Hogwarts have put on warm sweaters and padded vests under their outer robes.

.

In such weather, the library also becomes a bit cold.

Many students gather in the common room with a fireplace to do their homework, and they can loudly discuss recent interesting stories with their peers. Here, everyone does not have to worry about the librarian, Mrs. Pince, popping up from somewhere.

, shouting angrily "no noise" or something like that.

As a result, there were fewer students in the library.

Maka was happy to be quiet. Studying in a place with few people was obviously more conducive to improving efficiency. As for things like cold weather, he easily thought of a convenient and simple countermeasure to keep out the cold.

After slightly blending the blood of the salamander, he made a continuous liquid medicine that can keep the body warm. This thing is very simple. It only needs to let the fire energy in the blood of the salamander flow at an extremely slow speed.

It just needs to be dispersed in the body, it can't even be called a medicine.

But because of this, it has a disadvantage - you need to drink more water, otherwise the moisture in your body will gradually decrease and your skin will become dry. Of course, you will understand it yourself without telling me, because after drinking

You will often feel thirsty with this medicine until the effect of the medicine wears off.

At this moment, Hermione was sitting next to Maka, listening to him explain some advanced principles of the levitation spell.

From time to time, the two of them would pick up the cups on the table and take a sip. There was even a big teapot on the table in front of Maka. Obviously, Hermione also tried Maka's little invention, and it felt pretty good.

, feeling warm and comfortable all over.

Just as Maka was talking about the practical application of the floating spell, both of them heard a clear sound of footsteps coming from behind.

"McLean, I've heard rumors about you. Maybe we can be friends." The visitor paused, then continued, "My name is Malfoy, Draco Malfoy."

Maka turned her head, looked at Malfoy, who had blond hair and a pale face, and smiled slightly, "Oh, of course. I don't seem to have any reason to refuse this proposal, Malfoy."

Hermione looked at Maka, but didn't speak - even though she didn't have any good impression of Malfoy.

"Yes! I think, unlike that stupid Potter, you have a smart mind." Malfoy seemed to be very happy and spoke casually to slander Harry.

"No! I think people who casually insult others are the real stupid ones! Harry is a smart man, he knows how to protect his friends!" Hermione couldn't help it, she retorted loudly.

"No noise!" From a distance, Mrs. Pingsi looked over here.

Maka nodded apologetically, but before she could speak, Malfoy spoke.

"No one talks to you, you stinking Mudblood!"

Although Hermione did not understand the meaning of the word, it did not prevent her from knowing that it was an insulting word. She stared at Malfoy fiercely, like an angry hen.

"Malfoy, I must remind you that insulting others at will is not the behavior of a noble!" Maka frowned, "Besides, I am also what you call a 'stinking mudblood'."

"You are not a pure-blood -" "Everyone is petrified!"

Malfoy's surprised expression froze on his face, causing a few students not far away to stand up in horror.

"Oh - Maka, you shouldn't -"

Hermione became uneasy when she saw this, but she took it back mid-sentence. After experiencing the troll incident, her thoughts on violating school rules fundamentally changed.

But the uneasiness still existed, and she was worried about the punishment Maka would receive next.

"I didn't do anything wrong. Moreover, the whole-body binding spell is no more harmful than the crushing spell. It doesn't do much damage to the target." Maka raised the wand and waved it quickly, "Petrification is lifted!"

Malfoy immediately collapsed to the ground, gasping for air and unable to even utter a word. It was obvious that he was frightened.

"This is just a punishment for being rude to you," Maka still looked gentle, he smiled and said, "You can tell the teacher, but I don't think this is a good idea."

Maka put the wand back into her sleeve, then sat back on the chair calmly.

As a result, Malfoy didn't say anything, but the news quickly reached Professor Sprout's ears - it was Mrs. Pince who reported it.

In the evening of that day, Maka was called to the office of the Herbal Medicine Professor next to the greenhouse, and he found Professor McGonagall waiting for him there.

"Mr. Maclean, I have to tell you why you are always causing trouble!" Professor McGonagall said angrily.

"Hmm - I think there must be some reason why you used the curse on Malfoy, right? Can you tell us and let us listen?" Professor Sprout was obviously still trying to protect his shortcomings.

"Ah, yes." Maka nodded, "Malfoy verbally insulted Hermione and called her a 'Mudblood'. This is something I can't stand; you know, I've said it before, she is my friend.

.”

"Oh! Mudblood! What a terrible word!" Professor Sprout said in surprise, "This is discrimination and it should not appear in Hogwarts."

Hufflepuff House has been supporting Muggle-born children to become wizards since its founder Helga Hufflepuff. Until now, outstanding Muggle wizards and mixed-blood wizards have emerged in an endless stream, and it has almost become a general trend.

This further proves how correct Helga's initial persistence was.

"As for your feelings for your friends, I understand very well. Malfoy will definitely be punished for his outrageous words and deeds," Professor McGonagall said seriously, "but your behavior of casting spells on your classmates violated school rules. You understand

Yet?"

After saying that, she looked at Professor Sprout, obviously reminding him that he should be punished accordingly.

"Well."

Professor Sprout looked at Professor McGonagall in embarrassment, not knowing what to do for a moment - she actually didn't want to punish Maka at all.

"Professor Sprout, Professor McGonagall is right, I should accept the punishment." At this time, Maka agreed with Professor McGonagall, "Only by punishing students who violate school rules can other students be punished.

Establish a correct concept of doing things, so that they can avoid detours in the future and develop excellent personality qualities..."

Maka said something serious that even he himself didn't take seriously, but Professor McGonagall in front of him showed a satisfied smile.

"In that case, you can stay in the third greenhouse tonight until you go to bed, taking care of the plants!" Professor Sprout also nodded happily.

After that, the two professors sent Maka to the door of the third greenhouse and then went to find Malfoy. Maka looked at their leaving figures and after a while, she got into the greenhouse.

Well! The effect of the big talk was quite obvious. Professor McGonagall actually left without deducting any points. This was an unexpected gain. Originally, Maka just wanted Professor McGonagall to feel better about him. Actively seeking punishment.

"Um?"

As soon as Maka entered the third greenhouse, she immediately discovered that there was someone inside. To be precise, it was the mysterious Slytherin girl!

I saw her holding a small shovel in her hand, skillfully replacing the plants with new soil! From her fast and smooth movements, it was impossible to tell that she was the one who spent a long time in the library flipping through books. The clumsy girl who takes the essentials.

Although she still looked expressionless and indifferent.

"Uh, hello."

Maka was stunned for a moment and thought it would be okay to ask first! Although he estimated that the other party would not pay attention to him.

But Maka obviously guessed wrong again.

"Hello." The girl immediately nodded in this direction and said in an emotionless tone.

"Well," Maka walked next to her and started to help her change the soil, "If you don't mind, can you tell me your name?"

"Willy Blois." She kept her hands on her hands and just lowered her head to deal with the things in her hands, but she answered quickly.

Maka has always been unable to see through this girl, but this girl named Willy is different from Snape and Dumbledore. She gives Maka the feeling that this girl does not have any complex thoughts, and even emotions. No.

"It's just like a doll." Maka thought for no reason.

"Do you like plants very much?" In order to learn more about this mysterious girl, he continued the conversation.

"Yes." The answer was still simple, and still so plain.

"What plant do you like?"

"all."

"There's always one or two things you find annoying, right? For example, balboa tubers or something?"

"No."

"Do you come to the greenhouse often to take care of them?"

"Yes."

"Would that happen on my own..."

During this slightly pale question and answer session, everything at hand was completed, but Willie once again exceeded Maka's expectations. When he thought about it, this time Willie would definitely turn around and leave without saying a word. , but she didn't move.

After putting the gloves back on the utility rack aside, Willy folded her hands in front of her and continued to have an empty conversation with Maka, with no intention of leaving.

"Uh, I mean, aren't you leaving?" Maka asked curiously, "Just like the last two times."

"Let's go after that." Willie said calmly.

"Then...if I can't finish talking, will you just stand here with me and keep talking?" Maka felt that his IQ was a bit insufficient, and he had difficulty understanding Willy's logical circuit.

"Yes." - actually confirmed.

"Then do you think it's interesting to talk to me?" Maka tried her best to ask the conclusion she could think of as a question.

"I don't think so."——You really don't think it's interesting!

"Then why do you continue to talk?" Maka couldn't help but tell the truth in her heart.

After hearing this, Willy paused, looked at Maka and thought for a while before replying: "Mom said, you can't leave until others finish talking."

"It's polite."

Willy used these last four words to completely sink Maka, who looked dull.
