Harry Potter’s Book of Sin
Chapter 1225 Bitter Tea
"Maca?"
When Ron had been in the ward for a long time and was about to take two steps to relax his tense mood, he saw a familiar figure from the back in the visitors rest area on the sixth floor.
To be honest, Maca's back figure itself is not conspicuous, just like his appearance, it has never been the type that can attract attention at a glance.
Therefore, nowadays, the reason why everyone feels extraordinarily reliable when they see him is entirely because he has so far brought practical help to many, many people.
Sometimes Ron couldn't help but feel a little weird just thinking about it for a while-he couldn't imagine what everyone would be like now without Maca.
But... of course, what Ron couldn't imagine was always clear to Maca.Without him, some things might not be so good, but maybe there are more bad things that will not happen again.
Therefore, Maca has actually thought from a long time ago that his "chance encounter" with Hogwarts, these little friends, and even the entire magical world is definitely not a good thing.
Maybe... Just "meeting Maca McLean in my life" is a mistake for many people, right?
"Ok?"
Ron's magical fluctuations, Maca, had already felt it, but he waited for the other party to speak before he turned his head and smiled at the other party.
"Maca, why are you here," Ron saw that it was Maca and quickly walked over. "When did you come back? Why didn't you go to the ward?"
"Oh, sorry," Maca shrugged slightly, "I'm thinking of something here."
"is it?"
Ron, who was about to sit down here, immediately straightened up again.
"Then keep thinking, I won't bother you—"
Obviously, Maca's time is definitely precious compared to the idle time.If Maca's thinking was delayed because of his running around, maybe he would become a sinner in London... and even the entire British magical world!
"No, no," Maca waved his hand immediately, seeing Ron want to leave, "Since everything is up, sit down! Nothing to disturb."
"Uh...is it really okay?"
"Sit down if you ask you to sit down!"
Maca shook his head. Seeing Ron finally sat down across the table with some hesitation, he took a sip from the cup in front of him.
"That one--"
Ron looked at the teapot and cup on the table. He suddenly found that the slightly swaying tea in the cup did not seem to be the usual color on a British afternoon tea table.
It looks... as if it's a little gray?
"Is it Ge... Godigan tea?" He recalled slightly, "I remember you seemed to drink it for us."
"Well, yes, Gordigan tea." Maca nodded, "but this is not the kind I used to cook for you. How about it, do you want to taste it?"
When Ron heard this, he said happily:
"Oh, why not?"
Maca nodded again clearly, and then waved his hand casually, letting the other teacup clasped on the porcelain plate float to Ron.Then, the teapot also moved, and after pouring him a full cup, it fell back to the center of the table.
"Huh? What's this smell..."
Ron picked up the teacup and sniffed it, seemingly confused.But when he saw Maca drinking one mouthful at a time, there seemed to be no problem, and there was no worry in his heart immediately.
Because he knew that Maca has always had a very good taste in eating and drinking, and even the last "potion material dinner" was not bad in terms of taste alone.
However, as soon as the tea was consumed, Ron's face changed instantly.
"puff--"
Maca's eyes were quick and fast, and when Ron subconsciously spouted, he immediately raised his hand, letting the tea mixed with saliva float in the air.
Then, he pointed down again, let them gather into a bunch and poured them into Ron's teacup.
"how does it taste?"
Maca raised his eyebrows, with a prank smile on his face, and looked at the miserable look on the opposite Ron with interest.
"Oh, Maca..." Ron stuck out his tongue and frowned. "What is this?"
"Didn't you just say it? Gordigan tea!" Maca spread his hands together and said with a chuckle, "And it's still the most original version. Not many people can drink it in this world!"
"This," Ron said helplessly when he heard it, "Even if everyone can drink it, there won't be many people who like to drink it? Maca, do you really think this is delicious?"
Before he could say anything, Maca put away his smile and looked into his cup, then slowly shook his head.
"do not think so."
"then you--"
Before finishing saying "then why would you drink it", Ron saw Macallo lower his head and said:
"Although I don't like it, two people think it's not bad. But I think, in fact, there may only be one person who really likes it...Because of the other, the person who likes it may only be the person who cooked it. That's it."
"What, what?"
Ron felt like he understood, but he didn't seem to understand.After thinking about it for a while, he could only scratch his head depressedly.
"Well, I don't want to drink anymore... I'm sorry, I wasted your cup of tea."
"It's okay."
Maca waved his hand indifferently, emptied the tea cup in front of Ron, and then let it turn over again and return to the porcelain plate on one side.
But after that, he picked up his cup again and drank upright in one sip.Then Ron watched him put the cup on the table and sighed with relief:
"Oh, it really is an impactful drink!"
Seeing that he had to add to the cup after saying this, Ron finally couldn't help saying:
"Maca, isn't it... what happened?"
Ron is not a person who is very sensitive to other people's inner thoughts. Even under Maca's advice in the past, he is already much better than the immature self.
But the things that are not good at are things that are not good at. It is impossible for Ron to grow out of Ron's shortcomings just because of Maca's few words.
So in other words, in this series of behaviors of Maca right now, there have been a few abnormalities that even Ron can detect.
"Huh?" When Maca heard it, she just shook her head. "No, nothing happened. I just recalled some of the past suddenly-you know, I am an orphan like Harry. As for orphans, there will always be some sighing old things."
When he heard Maca's words, Ron wanted to say that he didn't know, especially compared with Harry, the story of Maca before he enrolled in Hogwarts was completely blank for their little friends.
No one knows what Maca has experienced in the past; let alone what kind of childhood it was that gave birth to a wizard as outstanding as Maca.
Ron remembered that someone in the school had speculated that Maca, who had always been humble and polite like a real gentleman, was most likely from a generous and outstanding family.It is only for some unknown reason that he becomes an orphan.
Calculating based on time, many people think that Maca's parents and family members may have died at the hands of Voldemort.
That's right, although Maca had long said that he was of Muggle origin, there were still a lot of people who didn't believe it, especially the "young ladies" of Slytherin College.
But on this point, Ron didn't think so.
Yes, Maca’s words and deeds always carry a sense of self-confidence and humility that ordinary people do not have, and that kind of temperament often gives people a sense of education.But Ron felt that Maca's self-confidence and humility were fundamentally different from the so-called "pure-blood education" in those pure-blood wizard families.
Just like now, there was a certain bad mood surging in Maca's heart, even Ron could feel it.But on the surface, he was still calm and friendly, as if he didn't want others to feel uneasy because of his mood at the moment.
Maca McLean is a person who is born with a soft heart.On the contrary, the kind of toughness he usually shows may be a disguise for himself and others.
At this moment Maca didn't know, his disguise was hardly seen through, but Ron had guessed it by accident today.
"Okay, this tea is almost drunk, and things are about the same, then I should continue to go out to do errands...Oh, I won't go to the ward for now. You can go back later, and you can mention it by the way. In one sentence, I would say that I might not come back today to have dinner with everyone."
"Uh, ok—"
Watching Maca get up, Ron habitually nodded in response, but he then stretched out his hand again:
"Ah! Wait a minute, I have something to tell you here."
"what's up?"
After Maca heard it, he couldn't help but pause, then looked back at him and asked.
"It's Harry," Ron reported immediately. "He went to Diagon Alley-with his Gryffindor sword. Oh, maybe Neville was with him too. I went there before. Hannah told me about his family’s ward."
"Harry and Neville?" Macalho nodded slightly, and asked after thinking, "Is there anyone else?"
Ron shook his head.
"It should be gone."
"Well, I see, I will pay attention to it on the way."
Having said that, Maca turned around again, step by step towards the stairs.Here Ron was watching his leaving back. Although he was a little worried, he didn't know what he should say until he couldn't see him.
He only knew that there seemed to be an unspeakable feeling of depression in his chest, which made him feel very uncomfortable.
After a while, Ron retracted his gaze, causing them to fall back on the teacup left by Maca on the opposite side, staring at it for a while.
It's a pity, what exactly was Maca thinking just now, and what was meant by the previous remarks, but he couldn't understand how he thought about it.
"Oh!"
Ron scratched his scalp again with some distress, the doubts in his heart piled up....
