Harry Potter’s Book of Sin
Chapter 799 The so-called "respect"
Since there was such a thing yesterday, Maca really didn't remember Charlotte's affairs for a while.
After all, whether it was for Maca himself or Hogwarts as a whole, the fact that Helbo's remnant soul sneaked into the campus and possessed Harry was obviously much more important.
It wasn't until he finished sorting out some information in the office at night that he went through the process of the Witt family running to ask for someone in his mind.
For Charlotte, Maca would definitely not let those so-called "family" take away casually, because he knew very well that this senior sister had already had little affection for her family.
If there is anything in that mansion worthy of her nostalgia, it is probably her father, right?
At least, in any case, the fiancé, whom Maca had never met, would definitely not be the reason for her to go home and accept her fate.
Therefore, as Maca who has been taken care of by Charlotte after enrolling, this time I intend to be a good person to the end.After all, he brought the people out at the beginning, and now he has the confidence, and it makes no sense to ignore the difficulties of this senior.
However, what Maca did not expect was that Charlotte's nominal fiancé came so quickly!
"It seems something is wrong?"
Maca stood by the window of the office, his gaze stayed in the direction of the school door. Those more "guests" than yesterday made him frowned and thought in secret.
It is certainly not an ordinary family that can marry the Witt family.Judging from what Maca heard when he tried to take Charlotte away, the background of the other party is at least comparable to Charlotte's family.
And it is such a force that should not be underestimated, who didn't make noise when he just lost his marriage contract, but now it shows an eagerness that he can't wait for even one night.The reason is that Maca is hard to care about.
"The one standing in front should be Charlotte's fiance?"
He stared at the situation over there, looking over from here, without magic, he could only get a rough idea.
"Professor Flitwick, did they say anything today?"
"Well, I didn't actually say much," the little Flitwick who stood behind Maca screamed. "The young master of the Augustinian family just said he wanted to see Miss Witt, so he won't go back if he doesn't see it... …"
"Augustine?"
Maca recalled a little bit, and quickly turned to a little information about the family from some sloppy reading memories.
The modern intelligence of this kind of ancient wizard family is almost equal to zero. If you want to guess what kind of family they are, you must look for it from some ancient records.
This is definitely very difficult for ordinary wizards nowadays, but for Maca, who used to browse and borrow many ancient books in Rowena's secret room, there are not so many obstacles.
"Oh," he said quickly, "it should be the descendant of Aurelius Augustine who used'theology' to fool Muggles?"
It is different from the typical way of starting a business for the ancient wizards of the Witt family who "prospered by magical achievements";
The Augustine family relied on conveying "philosophy" and "aesthetics" to Muggles, and incidentally used "theology" to narrow the distance between Muggles and him.
Looking at the results of the accumulation of family wealth, Aurelius Augustine's actions back then are obviously successful.
It is a pity that the changes of the times will always cause unpredictable changes in many situations.For families like Augustine, what they fear most is the complete isolation of wizards and Muggles, so...
Maca pondered the situation that he had guessed, and suddenly felt that he had caught something.
Could it be that... the Augustine family intends to completely rely on the Witt family for the marriage?
It is conceivable that a large family that was once brilliant, although it had to bear huge losses under the general trend, was reluctant to disclose the emptiness inside because of its former glory.
Whether it is a wizard or a Muggle, countless forces in history have had this tendency to "deceive themselves".Even some families are unwilling to admit their own weakness, and they are still struggling to maintain the "superficial scenery" before the fall.
When he thought of this, Maca couldn't help but nodded slightly-the possibility of his own speculation was not low.
However, although Maca's conjecture was accurate enough, due to lack of some vital information, his inference finally deviated from the truth hidden behind the matter.
"Professor, where is Charlotte now?"
Looking at Professor McGonagall who was dealing with "visitors" at the school gate, Maca asked again.
"Oh, Minerva said she was a bit late at the Pig's Head Bar yesterday, maybe she was still sleeping in her room right now?"
When Maca heard the words, he nodded immediately and said: "It seems that Professor McGonagall hasn't had time to tell her this... Well, let me see her first! Professor Flitwick, please tell McGonagall. Professor Ge said that Sister Charlotte and I would be there soon."
"Ah, good."
Seeing Flitwick leaving the office in a hurry, Maca glanced back out of the window again-the weather today is still not so good, this is only the morning when the dense clouds have completely blocked the sun from the sky.
...
"True."
Hogwarts, as a magic school, has not many students and few faculty.To say that the most in this school, I am afraid that those house elves clean every day, but most of them can't use the empty rooms.
And that Miss Charlotte Witt, who had escaped from the family, lived in an empty room that was originally intended to be used as a professor's office.
Speaking of it, since Charlotte returned to Hogwarts, Maca seems to have never been here.
After knocking on the door several times in a row, he finally heard some movement inside.However, perhaps because this is a school, the beauty who is always carefree still pays attention.
When the door was opened, Maca saw a neatly dressed Miss Witt, not the pajamas version of Charlotte she had seen in the Muggle apartment.
It's a pity that those wistful eyes still can't fool Maca-this big beauty, it is obvious that she is still sleeping in bed!
"Maca?"
Charlotte blinked his still somewhat sour eyes, and sent a puzzled look.
Today is Sunday, and the slow-paced life of the two-day break makes Charlotte used to sleep a little longer on the last morning of the week, so as to soothe the skin that has become a little dry due to daily work.
Women should take good care of their appearance, especially beautiful women, they will naturally be more vigilant in the face of future aging.
But she also knew that Maca seemed to be busy every day.In addition to eating, lectures and sleeping, there are many other things to do. This is the first time I came to my room this morning!
"Well, good morning!" Maca shrugged, "I heard that yesterday was a bit late, so I'm still sleeping?"
"Oh, let's put it like this..." Charlotte said, "What's the matter, junior? You are so busy, how can you have the time to hang around with your sister? There must be something?"
Hearing this, Maca smiled habitually.His senior sister is still like this, she always makes people feel light and vigorous when she talks, as if there is no need to worry about anything in this world.
Although Luna and Luna are completely two types, these two completely different personalities can make people feel that they are different in the same way.
To be honest, Maca really doesn't want to mess up this rare relaxing atmosphere with the messy things outside.
"It's really something," he shook his head, "but it's not appropriate to stand at the door and say something...Do you mind if I go in and talk to you?"
"Oh, of course it's okay," Charlotte smiled, "please come in then! Hey, there is nothing shameful in my sister's room!"
Seeing Charlotte stepping back and giving way a little, Maca pouted noncommittal while walking in unceremoniously.
"Well?"
As soon as he entered inside, Maca felt a strong sense of sight.
The tightly drawn curtains, rudimentary furniture and an antique oil lamp, except that there is not much moisture here, and there are no cracks on the walls, they are exactly the same as the old apartment house where Charlotte lived at the time.
"Uh, senior sister, are you out of nostalgia?" Maca asked in surprise.
"Huh, can't it?"
Charlotte said, she raised her hand suddenly, but then only patted Maca on the shoulder.
"Sit down! At least there are two chairs here now, and the bed is in the middle... Well, do you want to drink something? Although I only have boiled water here.
Don't you slap your back anymore...That's good, in this way, you can deal with today's things with less scruples.
"No, don't be busy," Maca sat down on the round stool by the table and sighed. "Sit down too! In order to prevent Professor McGonagall from wasting too much time, I will not Speaking slowly..."
Seeing Maca's expression suddenly became more serious, Charlotte also keenly smelled some of it.Although she didn't know exactly what happened, she would eventually have something to do with herself, but she didn't run away.
"Go ahead!"
She sat down on the other side of the small wooden table and chose to listen instead of asking.
"That's it," Maca chose the wording first, and then said, "Yesterday morning, someone from your family came and said that he would take you back to the family."
"Their reason is that engagement in the past."
No matter how long Maca can stretch his hand, when it comes to friends' personal issues, he will take care not to be too pretentious.
Therefore, even if he clearly knows Charlotte's decision, he must first give the other party the right to choose.Otherwise, he would be sorry for the shot Charlotte didn't fall on his vest just now.
"And today," Maca continued, "to be precise, it is now - Augustine has arrived."
