"It seems that this multiple-choice question is really difficult for her!"

Suddenly, a voice sounded from the depths of the dim hall, which had been completely silent.

According to the living zombies, the owner of the voice should have gone out at this time. But in fact, after chatting with Harry for a few words, he never left London at all and just sat quietly the whole time.

On the throne at the deepest part of the main hall, Hermione and the others were silently observed.

This should have been a lie that could be easily exposed, because although the main hall is not allowed to enter, there are actually no obstacles set up, and anyone can enter and exit at will. In addition, he has never deliberately hidden his thoughts, as long as He

If Min and the others come over, they will definitely be able to see his presence.

However, until now, let alone coming to the main hall, Hermione and her group were disturbed by various problems and had not even left the side hall.

"Although their hesitation was caused by me, now it seems that they are still a little intolerable!" After a moment of silence, the voice on the throne sounded again, with a hint of sigh in his tone.

Only this time, as soon as he finished speaking, another voice suddenly floated out from the corner of the hall.

"Of course you can't bear it! When faced with the teacher's questioning that day, your struggle was much more painful than that of these children. Now it's up to you to play the role of the teacher... Huh, of course you can 'empathize' with it.

Isn't it?"

Obviously, that was Haierbo's voice - there was a strong sense of sarcasm in his words, and even if it were an unrelated person, he would definitely be able to hear it.

However, this little ridicule obviously cannot stimulate the former.

"Yes! I really feel the same way." The Lord of the Living Corpses said calmly, not even changing his posture of leaning on the armrest of the throne. "I know you despised my initial wavering, and even more despised my final result.

The decision to change my own principles... Well, you probably think that my behavior from beginning to end was just to please the lady and gain a chance of survival, right?"

"Hey, fear of death is a perfectly normal thing. It's nothing to despise." Haierbo's subtle laughter suddenly sounded, "I'm just a little curious, do you have any 'principles'?

What's going on? You know, that's not something that can be changed easily."

After the words fell, the hall was quiet for a moment, and then the "Lord of the Living Corpses" spoke again:

"In the final analysis, you still doubt me."

"Huh, how dare I? You have gained the teacher's trust, who dares to doubt it casually?" As soon as Haierbo said these words, he stopped talking. Soon, the original silence returned to the hall.

After a while, the "Lord of the Living Corpses" muttered to himself again:

"Okay! Since you won't come, then I can only invite you to come... I still have some time, but it's not much. There are some problems... Let's think about it while doing things!"

Thinking of this, he suddenly raised his head and shouted towards the door:

"Invite those humans over!"

…

In fact, about half an hour has passed. It is short or long. It is enough for a strong man like the Lord of the Living Corpses to circle around the southern coast of England. It is even more than enough.

So when some living corpses came over and told everyone that their "master" had returned from going out, no one was suspicious, let alone that everyone was still thinking a lot at this time, and how could they have time to doubt these "little things"?

go?

However, whether the other party has left is a trivial matter, but meeting him now is definitely a big deal - it has only been a few days since the last meeting, and many issues have not been figured out by everyone. Even the short-term purpose is not yet clear.

It's consistent, but if we meet again today, I don't know what will happen.

Especially...when everyone has some serious doubts about the identity of this "Lord of the Living Corpses".

"Ta...ta...ta...ta..."

The sound of footsteps sounded messily in the corridor outside the hall. It was the sound of stepping on the hard ice, which was particularly clear in this extremely quiet environment.

The side door of the main hall was tightly closed, and the living corpse who led the way did not leave there, so Hermione and the others were led around to the main entrance in front of the main hall.

"Everyone, please come in! The master is waiting for you in the hall... Although you are the distinguished guests invited by the master, please be careful not to be rude."

The living corpse reminded him like this. Although he was still very polite, this time there was a hint of warning.

Naturally, Hermione and others will not be frightened by him with just one sentence, but it is true - there are many fundamental differences between the meeting with the other party today and the last time, how to face it, and what kind of stance to use to face it.

Yes, that is the biggest problem today.

Fortunately, everyone has already discussed this basic issue at the camp.

"Let's go!"

Everyone exchanged glances with each other, without saying anything more, and then Delphi and Luna took the lead into the deep hall.

"Puff, bang bang bang bang bang--"

The torches on the huge pillars in the hall automatically lit up flames one after another, extending from both sides towards the depths of the hall, illuminating the hall brightly.

This place has not changed much from the last time Delphi came here. It is just that there are a few more decorations compared to when Helbo was here. Although it is far less magnificent than the original Buckingham Palace, the taste of the Lord of the Living Corpses is now

, it is still much better than Haierbo.

At least it won't turn this beautiful palace into a cold and gloomy rough warehouse.

"These ice flames are pretty, aren't they? I added some concentrated ice crystals and furnace powder to these torches - as you know, there is no shortage of ice cubes in London today."

It was still the same understated tone, coupled with the other party's rich, deep and hoarse voice, which made Hermione and other friends feel a little complicated.

However, no matter how certain they are about certain things now, now is definitely not the time to pierce that layer of window paper... No, rather, the more certain they are in their hearts, the less they can divulge it.

Even if there is hesitation, even if it is complex, or even doubtful, the once unparalleled trust is still supporting some ideas. No one dares to talk nonsense before truly clarifying certain doubts.

So Hermione decided early on that Delphi and Luna, who were the most calm in situations, would take the lead today. Because even she felt that she might not be able to maintain her calmness as before.

Wavering and never stopping.
