Hogwarts and the Holy Grail War
Page 31
(Note: In order to avoid causing adverse effects on young people, the author decided to delete the 114-character Chinese quintessence here after friendly consultation with Ethan.)
"You!" Neil's raised hand trembled slightly. He was used to doing whatever he wanted by relying on his family's power. People were always fawning on him wherever he went. Even if someone stood up to oppose him, they could only discuss it properly due to his family's power. He had never experienced the scene of being greeted by the quintessence of the country.
"I remember now, you are the special recruit!" Neil stared at Ethan with a sinister look for a long time before recognizing his identity and said hatefully.
"Oh, it seems you are not completely blind yet, congratulations, congratulations." Ethan clapped his hands and continued to say sarcastically, "It's such a pity, how come such a big pair of eyes grow on your face?"
Very good, the opponent has been angered. Now we just have to wait for him to lose his temper and make the first move.
However, Neil just sighed, said a few harsh words and turned away: "I'm in a good mood today, so I won't bother with you. Be careful in Hogwarts next time, don't let me see you!"
Ethan: ? ?
No way, how can you tolerate this? The sun rises from the west?
"Hey, wait a minute, now that we've come to this point, why don't you just fight?" Ethan looked at Neil's back as he left like the wind, and shouted speechlessly, "Hurry up and do it, don't let me look down on you!"
But Mr. Psychopath was too far away to hear any further provocations.
"That's weird. What's wrong with him today?" Ethan scratched his ear, his little face full of confusion. "Could it be that he has a change of heart and changed his ways?"
It's strange, according to the class leaders, Neil would be followed by a few younger brothers wherever he went, but today he was the only one seen. It was really too abnormal in every aspect.
And how did he come to Hogsmeade? I and Alanna had Professor Figo's approval, so which professor approved him?
"It doesn't matter. At least I got to face him today. It's worth it." Ethan shrugged and stopped speculating about Neil's abnormal attitude.
After all, normal people cannot understand the thought circuits of psychopaths.
Ethan returned to Mrs. Wayne's potion shop. Through the glass window he could see Alanna still selecting cosmetics in the shop. She chatted with the owner, Mrs. Wayne, from time to time and looked very happy.
"Take your time, there's no rush." Ethan looked at the warm atmosphere in the store, smiled kindly, and leaned against the windowless wall on the other side with his arms folded across his chest, quietly waiting for Alanna.
It’s nice to have a peaceful life like this, isn’t it?
"Hey, you're... Ethan, right?"
A strange female voice came from in front of Ethan. Ethan looked up and saw a round Japanese Noh mask that caught his eye. He was so scared that his heart stopped for two seconds.
Chapter 59 The Clown is by My Side
Ethan came to his senses and took a closer look. In front of him was a burly woman with heavy makeup.
"Who are you?" Ethan frowned, as if he had never seen this person before.
"Uh, sorry. I haven't introduced myself yet. My name is Abby, Abby Anderson." The person on the other end said stiffly.
"Abby Anderson?" Ethan widened his eyes, looking at Abby in front of him with some disbelief. The Abby was completely different from the one in his memory.
The main reason is that Abby put on heavy makeup today, and at first glance she did look different from before.
However, her makeup skills are not good enough. The foundation on her face is too thick, and the color difference between her face and her neck is obvious. You can't see the original face under the foundation at all. Her lips are covered with bright lipstick, which reflects an unnatural light under the sun. At the same time, the eye shadow is too thick, making her eyes look too prominent and even a little scary.
"Yes, do you know me?" Abby looked a little flattered. She pinched the corner of her clothes and said hesitantly, "I am also a student of Hogwarts... from Slytherin College. Can we... get to know each other?"
"Hiss—" Ethan held his temple with his hand and took a breath of cold air.
What sin did I commit in my previous life?
Merlin, if I was really guilty, you could just send me to Azkaban and give me the Eater of Souls Kiss instead of finding a psychopath as muscular as a man to be your fangirl.
Although there is indeed some preconceived subjective disgust in this, but the makeup aesthetics on the other side...
This is unbearable. This is really unbearable.
"Um, Ms. Anderson." Ethan tried his best to keep his facial expression from being too distorted, and showed an awkward but polite smile, "I remember that this is the first time we met today, right?"
"Oh, this... I'm sorry, I'm a little excited to see you... I'm so abrupt, I'm really sorry!" Abby hurriedly apologized to Ethan and explained incoherently, "I've heard some things about you... I admire you very much. So I thought... can we... try to make friends?"
"I'm sorry, Ms. Anderson," Ethan said with a wry smile as he looked at Abby in front of him. "I have an appointment with someone right now. Can we talk about this after we get back to school?"
"Ah? Are we just going to let Mr. Ethan wait here?" Abby exclaimed hypocritically, looking at Ethan with burning eyes, "Isn't that too inconsiderate? I know there's a teahouse nearby, do you want to go there with me to rest?"
When Abby said this, her eyes kept blinking, and the powder on her face kept falling down due to the pulling of her muscles.

Thank you, I was disgusted.
"No, I'm fine here. Thank you for your concern, Miss Anderson." Ethan pulled the corners of his mouth unnaturally and forced a smile, "Miss Anderson should be busy with other things, right? It would be bad if she was delayed because of chatting with me."
"It's okay. It's not an important matter anyway. It's nothing compared to Mr. Ethan." Abby smiled and said nonchalantly.
Ethan looked at the extremely pretentious Abby in front of him, and his fists unconsciously hardened a little.
What should I do? I really want to punch her twice to tell her to stop going crazy here.
Doesn't this idiot have any self-awareness? He said so clearly that he was going to chase people away, but he still didn't care? Is Neil's taste so strong?
Wait a minute, let’s sort out the relationships between the characters: Neil likes Abby, and Abby likes herself.
Oops, now someone has become a clown.
Ethan was still struggling with Abby outside the store when he heard a heavenly sound.
"Ethan, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. I..." The store door opened and Alanna ran out briskly with a handbag in her hand. Seeing the two people standing face to face outside the store, she was speechless and stood there in a daze.
"You...you are..." Alanna's delicate body trembled slightly, and the bag in her hand fell to the ground. She shook her head gently, staggered back two steps, and murmured softly, "No, this is not true..."
How could Ethan be chatting with Abby? And seeing how intimate Abby was, could it be that they knew each other before?
If they knew each other, then could it be that Ethan had discussed approaching her with Abby and the others? Was it just to stage a scene where she was betrayed after wishing for him at the critical moment?
No, it won't. Ethan won't do that. He promised to protect me.
But what if that oath was also false? What if he had been lying to himself from the beginning?
The girl was still lost in her thoughts, her eyes filled with moisture, as if tears would burst out in the next second.
As the saying goes, worry makes you confused. Alanna was too flustered to muster up the courage to look at Ethan. Perhaps she was afraid to face the reality and was afraid to see the coldness and ridicule in Ethan's eyes.
But in this way, she would not be able to see the impatience in his eyes towards Abby, and would not be able to further analyze that this was just Abby's wishful thinking.
"Who was it? Isn't it Alanna Shannans?" Abby turned to face Alanna, her tone a little harsh, "What a coincidence to meet you in Hogsmeade. What are you buying in Mrs. Wayne's shop?"
Ethan turned around and looked at Alanna as Abby did, and at the same time, he quietly distanced himself from Abby. When he saw Alanna's tearful face, his heart tightened unconsciously.
This time I have failed in my duty.
Ethan glanced at Abby, then turned his gaze back to Alanna, asking someone, "You... know each other?"
"I know her, I guess. She and I are both in the same grade in Slytherin." Abby answered first, very attentively, "Would you like me to introduce her to Mr. Ethan?"
"No, I know her. I'm just waiting for her." Ethan glanced at Abby and answered impatiently.
But when Abby's eyes were directed at Alanna, she showed a hint of joy and asked Alanna, "See? You kept Mr. Ethan waiting for so long."
Ethan tutted in annoyance. He no longer had the patience to listen to Abby continue to speak rudely to Alanna. He was already trying his best to hold back his anger by not punching her. “Well, now that the person I’m waiting for has arrived, it’s time for me to go. Farewell, Miss Anderson.”
Ethan said, leaving Abby and walking to Alanna. He squatted down to help her pick up the handbag that fell on the ground and handed it to her, saying softly, "The things have been bought, so let's go back now."
"Wait a minute, Mr. Ethan." Abby shouted desperately from behind, "Have you heard about these rumors about Shannans?"
"What's the matter? Tell me." Ethan turned around, put Alana behind him, put his hands behind his back, and stared at Abby coldly.
I want to see what else you can come up with.
Chapter 60: I don't know what this means. Don't insult my intelligence in front of me anymore.
"tell me the story."
Abby couldn't help but show her joy when she saw that Ethan seemed to be interested in this.
"I heard that Shanansi used her beauty to seduce male classmates everywhere, making them infatuated and making them spend money to buy things for her or provide her with various conveniences." Abby rolled her eyes and tried to speak in the most vicious way. "Don't be fooled by her appearance of a good girl, Mr. Ethan. She has a lot of fun in private. It seems that she has entered the dormitories of many male classmates."
"No... I didn't..." Alanna shook her head in panic, her little hands tightly grasped the corner of Ethan's clothes, she raised her head and looked at him helplessly, tears in her eyes, wanting to explain something, but was soon interrupted by Abby's voice.
"Why are you still pretending at this point? And Mr. Ethan, look at all the cosmetics she bought. I wonder if she's going to dress up and seduce someone somewhere!" Abby pointed at the handbag in Ethan's hand and slandered Alana without noticing that Ethan's face had turned darker than the bottom of a crucible.
Ethan put his hands behind his back and gently squeezed Alana's hands that were tugging at the corner of his clothes, separated her hands from his coat, stuffed the handbag into her hands, and then strode towards Abby.
"Eh..." Alanna looked at Ethan's figure getting farther and farther away from her in disbelief, and two tears slid down from the corners of her eyes.
As expected, Ethan is going to leave me too.
"I knew it, Mr. Ethan. You are really smart and you understand things quickly." Abby chuckled, very satisfied with Ethan's arrival.
As expected, I can easily control the situation at any time. Whether it was Rozier before or Ethan now, they were easily moved by just a few words from me.
But Rozier is not as good as Ethan. He is just a bootlicker and not presentable.
Well, maybe I can ask Ethan to come to Hogsmeade for a visit next weekend, and this way our relationship will definitely heat up quickly.
Just when Abby thought the situation was settled and was immersed in his own world and feeling complacent, Ethan, who was standing in front of him, spoke.
"Let me ask you, Miss Anderson. Do you have any evidence for what you just said?"
"What kind of evidence do you need for something like this?" Abby was confused and didn't understand Ethan's question. "Everyone says that, isn't that enough to prove the problem?"
"'Everyone'?" Ethan crossed his arms over his chest, looking like he was watching a show. "Who are these 'everyone' you are talking about? Give me some examples."
"This..." Abby was blocked by Ethan's question and was speechless for a while.
Where did the big guys come from? This was just something she made up. She saw that Alanna was weak and panicked when something happened, and she couldn't defend herself at all, so she dared to speak so recklessly. But once someone investigated it, this lie would be exposed.
Damn, what's wrong with Ethan? Generally speaking, if you hear a girl around you behave like this, shouldn't you immediately abandon her? Obviously, this trick worked on Rozier!
"What's wrong? Can't you remember it right now?" Ethan sneered, tapping his arm lightly with his left index finger, and continued to ask, "What did you just say? You've been to many boys' dormitories? Which dormitories do you specifically refer to? I'd like to visit them some other day!"
"I..." Abby swallowed and stood there, not knowing what to do.
Under Ethan's cold gaze, it seemed as if all his words were exposed in front of him. This feeling was so oppressive that it even made it hard to breathe.
"What do you mean by 'I'? Nothing to say?" Ethan put away the sneer on his face and looked down at Abby with contempt. "Then can I assume that the 'everyone' you mentioned refers only to you? And the so-called entering the boys' dormitory is nothing but your nonsense?"
Only Neil, a dog, would be willing to fall for such a clumsy slander. And seeing how skilled she was just now, she must have used this trick many times.
How does the saying go? A bitch and a dog are together forever.
In this situation, although it would be more satisfying to punch her directly, I still have to consider Alana's feelings. In fact, most of the words I just said were to Alana, just to let her understand that I didn't believe Abby's lies.
"You are really ignorant. Don't say such nonsense that insults my intelligence in front of me again." Ethan said with disdain, turned his head to look at Alana, and said, "I am confused, Miss Anderson. Why do you want to release such strong malice towards someone who has no grudge against you? Don't you feel guilty?"
"How can you say there is no grudge?" Abby suddenly yelled, completely ignoring the surprised looks of passers-by. Her red eyes were fixed on Alanna behind Ethan. "Just because of a mere word 'mudblood', that woman blocked me in the principal's office and scolded me for an hour! And the news spread to everyone. My reputation has been ruined by her!"
"And why? Why does she always have people to help her wherever she goes? Before, there was her sister, then Professor Snape, then the group of prefects, and now there is you! What's so good about her?"
"'Just' the word 'mudblood'?" Ethan shook his head. "You put it so lightly, Miss Anderson. You are so hurtful with your words and you have no idea. Do you still not know where you are wrong?"
"Wrong? I'm not wrong!" Abby screamed without caring, "If there is any fault, it's all her fault! Can't you just swallow your anger and keep silent? Why sue the parents? A mudblood is a mudblood, can't you just accept the fact that you are inferior to others?!"
At this time, a large number of passers-by were attracted by Abby's roar and stopped to watch the excitement at the door of Mrs. Wayne's store. They focused on the three people in the center of the storm, pointing and whispering to the people next to them. More and more people gathered, gradually blocking the door of the store.
"Things are getting out of control." Ethan sighed, returned to Alanna, and said softly, "Let's ignore this crazy woman. Shall we go?"
Alanna nodded with red eyes and was about to turn around and leave with Ethan.
"Abby, what's wrong with you?" A familiar voice came, scaring Alana so much that she stopped where she was, her body trembling slightly with fear.
A brown-haired man squeezed through the crowd and rushed to the center of the stage. He came to the gasping Abby and asked with concern.
It's our Mr. Neil Psychopath Dracoman Boiling Sheep Rosier.
"Neil!" Abby threw herself into Neil's arms, sobbing, "They...they bullied me!"
Since there is no hope of winning over Ethan, I might as well continue to use this licking dog to bite them.
Ethan's face darkened when he heard that, and he turned around to protect Alanna while staring at the pair of psychopaths made for each other.
Okay, you're trying to put the blame on someone else, right?
She is really a green tea girl whose appearance reflects her heart!
Chapter 61: Weak, please, you are very weak
"They bullied me!"
"Who is it?" Neil turned around suddenly and stared at Ethan and the other man with gloomy eyes, "It's you again!"
"Isn't this a coincidence, Master Rozier?" Ethan sneered, "We are able to meet twice in one day. We are really destined to meet each other."
"Just after you left, they jumped out and did this to me..." Abby sobbed intermittently in Neil's arms, "They also...scolded me, saying that I was...fickle..."
“Just left”?
Ethan was keenly aware of a word in Abby's words.
