Harry Potter’s Book of Sin
Chapter 261 Edward Lemay
The two Boothbarton boys opposite the fountain quarreled a lot, but Fleur seemed to be afraid to avoid it. Without explaining to Maca, he and Luna asked him and Luna to make a quiet detour.
Seeing Furong's appearance, how can Maca still not understand?
It's just that this thing obviously has nothing to do with him, and Furong didn't want to explain at all, so he shrugged and followed Luna with him.
The interior of Boothbarton Castle has a remarkable Baroque style. Whether it is a table, chair, carpet or style sculpture, it is exquisite, gorgeous and unrestrained in the complexity, and the color contrast is sharp and strong, and full of impact.
After avoiding the dispute on the side of the fountain far, Furong put on her gentle and slightly proud smile, and while leading Maca and Luna forward, she introduced them to the corridor from time to time. The origins of various decorations.
And her younger sister Gabriel, quietly following behind her sister, seemed quite well-behaved and sensible.
Looking at the teaching environment of Boothbarton School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, Maca also had to nod his head. Compared to Hogwarts, Boothbarton is obviously much richer!
Who has a good alumnus who can produce gold by alchemy?
He controlled his words and deeds at any time to maintain the necessary etiquette, but the pair of eyeballs glanced around at various valuable things, thinking about the value contained in it.
Naturally, they didn't just wander around like this. At least, before that, they had to go around in front of the principal, Mrs. Maxim, and say hello to continue walking.
Following Furong all the way to the top floor, Maca and Luna first stopped in front of a gorgeous gate, and let Furong and Gabriel go in to inform Maxim.
Before letting them wait too long, Furong came out first.
"Mr. McLean," she said softly, "the principal is receiving guests right now..."
"We will be fine after a while."
Maca didn't want Furong to think that she would neglect herself, so she nodded and said first, but didn't expect it, the other party shook her head.
"...No, it's not like that," Furong explained. "The guest heard that he was a student from Hogwarts, so he wanted to see him too..."
Speaking of this, she added, "...that's Mr. Nick Lemay's butler."
Macadam nodded even though he knew it.
"Mr. Nick Lemay and Professor Dumbledore are good friends, presumably because of this reason..." He thought for a while, then gestured, "Then say hello together! Otherwise, it would be rude."
But even though he said so, he was muttering that the history of magic has been ruined. Nick Lemay didn't know if he and his wife had both passed away. After seeing the housekeeper, how should he say hello?
Is it possible to ask: "Hey! Are your husband and wife dead?"
But no matter what he thinks, since they have mentioned it, they still need to see it.
Following Furong opened the door and entered, a wide room immediately caught Maca's eyes.There are luxurious decorations everywhere, whether it is desks, bookcases and coat racks, or sofa chairs for hospitality, there is no secret of grace.
At this moment, the tall Mrs. Maxim was sitting calmly on the sofa, and on the opposite side was a white-bearded wizard who was obviously the old housekeeper of Nick Lemay's house.
"Mrs. Maxim, it's an honor to see you again. It hasn't been long since the last parting, and this will bother you again. If there is any rudeness, please don't mind!"
Maca was talking idiots, but his gaze was first to Maxime, and then moved to the old housekeeper very naturally.
"Presumably you are the steward of Mr. Nick Lemay's house," he continued politely, "Professor Dumbledore often talked to me about Mr. Nick Lemay's alchemy talents. Although I don't know much about alchemy, I am very Admire Mr. Lemay’s achievements... don’t know how I should call you?"
"Not so polite,
As he was talking, the old housekeeper Edward looked at Maca for a while, and then continued: "I heard the master mentioned earlier that he said that Mr. McLean was the best student of Mr. Dumbledore. When he heard that you transferred to Germany When Mstrong, I still didn't believe it!"
When Edward mentioned the incident, Maca's expression did not change at all, and his face still maintained a calm smile.
"Yeah! Speaking of it, I don't believe it either!" Maca smiled, "It's just that there are always various unexpected changes in this world. Every step in life will lead to a completely different future."
He didn't mean to explain anything about this matter at all. Anyone who could understand would understand, and he didn't need to explain so much.
Perhaps it is because there are all kinds of servants with every kind of master, and this old butler also looks very knowledgeable.Although Maca used to make a big fuss in the Quidditch World Cup finals and was unrelated to the evil Death Eaters, the old man was still calm.
"Mr. McLean is really smart, and the last sentence casually said is thought-provoking..."
Probably unable to stand the old and young praises, Mrs. Maxim quickly reached out and gestured to Maca: "Mr. McLean, don't stand, please sit down! And this... Lovegood Miss?"
In the second event of the Triwizard Tournament, Luna was locked into the maze as a hostage of Maca, so Mrs. Maxim was still somewhat impressed.
"Yes, this is Luna Lovegood, a student at Ravenclaw College."
As Maca introduced, she was not polite, and took Luna to sit on the vacant sofa chair next to her.
Luna, who was following him, heard them mentioning herself, so she leaned forward slightly, with a slightly dazed smile on her face.
Seeing them sitting down, Furong and Gabriel smiled at them, and then went out first.
"How does it feel to come to Boothbarton today? I don't know if you are satisfied with the environment here?" Mrs. Maxim smiled. "If there is any place you want to visit, I can ask Dracul to take you there in a while. Restrained."
Maca nodded politely and joked: "Your school’s teaching environment is very beautiful, and I can’t help but want to stay here to go to school. I’ve heard about it as early as Hogwarts. It’s higher than Durmstrand’s!"
To be honest, even though Maca was feeling sorrowful of Busbarton's Dorkin along the way, he was really not interested in letting him live in such a place.
Bussbarton’s school rules are actually very strict, especially in terms of etiquette, which are cumbersome and sometimes even harsh.
One of Busbarton’s traditions is that when the principal enters the room, the students must stand upright and not sit down until the principal is seated to show respect to the principal.
If he wants to live in this place for a year or a half, does he still have to do anything?
Whether in Hogwarts or in Durmstrang, he always kept everything simple and focused on magic research, and when did he pay attention to etiquette.
Now that Bussbarton is a guest, he can still pretend to deal with it, but if it takes a long time, he won't be exhausted?
"Oh... I'm relieved to hear that you can say that!" Of course Mrs. Maxim knew that he was joking, so she also smiled, "If possible, please stay a few more days in the school. For the guest rooms, it’s summer vacation again. Mr. McLean can stay and experience the beauty of Boothbarton."
Of course, there is nothing wrong with staying for a few days, but if we continue around these polite words, it is estimated that the next topic should cover the French magic world.
Maca deliberately stopped talking a few words, so he simply threw the conversation to the old butler Edward.
"Oh...Thank you for your hospitality. I'm very honored." He said, naturally changing the subject, "Madam, don't care about me. Since Madam is still serving guests, please continue with Madam and Mr. Edward. I will first I went to visit other places."
However, he wanted to put oil on the soles of his feet, but some people refused to let it.
"Oh! Mr. McLean is too polite," the old butler smiled. "It's okay. My wife and I just talked about an interesting thing. If Mr. McLean is interested, we might as well listen to it."
Although they spoke casually, they had made an invitation after all, and that was obviously because of him.If he refuses Maca smoothly, it would be uninteresting.
In this case, he had to smile and nod, waiting for Edward or Maxim to continue.
Luna on the side didn't care at all. She tilted her head and looked at the landscape painting on the wall, staring at it for a moment, as if she was starting to be in a trance again.
"It's like this..."
The old butler paused, and then began to tell a story about his master Nick Lemay.
In fact, most wizards who study alchemy like to toss cryptography.However, the cryptography of the magic world is very different from that of Muggles, and it is basically based on various special ancient magic texts.
And his master Nick Lemay is also proficient in the in-depth study of many ancient magic texts.
However, in the process of traveling around the world nearly a hundred years ago, Nick Lemae discovered a very special ancient character from the ruins of an ancient ruin, whether it is magical or not.
It took him a lot of time to interpret part of this ancient character, but it didn't take long for him to completely throw this ancient character aside.
Recently, when the old butler Edward was sorting things, he turned to the stone slabs with ancient characters.But he found that these slates were very strange.
"...It can even be said to be'weird'!" The old butler said with a whole face.
