The day of the duel at Hogwarts

"Mr. Marlowe, what do you think of what I said before?" In a highly private room, Borrell held a glass of red wine and quietly waited for the answer from the person opposite.

The middle-aged man sitting opposite Borrell had short hair and some scars on the left half of his face similar to those caused by flames. He looked at Borrell and said in a slightly hoarse voice: "Borrell Sir, you should know very well that your father, Old Bosted, loves that squib son. If I kill him, it will be fine without being discovered. Once discovered, nothing will happen to you. But I Not necessarily.

I didn't know the power of your Bosted family before, but after being with you for so long, I know very well that you have a considerable degree of power in many foreign countries. I want to go to a place where your Bosted family doesn't have the tentacles. It's not an easy place. "

"I can send you to South Africa. Africa and China are places that our family has never touched. There is no way in China, and there is no need in Africa. South Africa is also a quite developed country, and the magic world there is also very prosperous. You go there You can live well.”

After a long silence, Marlowe said again: "I can promise you, but the reward must be doubled."

Looking at Marlowe, Borel smiled and said: "I thought that you, who had followed the Dark Lord, would be able to complete such a small thing easily, but in the end you have been bargaining for so long."

Marlowe didn't care about Borel's teasing at all. He looked at the other person and said: "Although I once followed the Dark Lord, I was only a subordinate of his Death Eaters. I am not even qualified to bear the Dark Mark. No, you don’t have to think of me as a die-hard loyalist of the Dark Lord. I’m just an ordinary wizard who wants to live a better life. Whoever has power and galleons, I will work for him, that’s all.”

Borrell nodded uncertainly and said nothing more. He just agreed to Marlowe's conditions: "Yes, as long as you kill that Sean Bursted, then I can give you whatever you want." You, he is in Beauxbatons in France now, I will arrange for someone to take him out of Beauxbatons, and then he will be handed over to you."

"Okay, I hope you can keep your promise by then."

"You can rest assured on this. I have so many people under my command. Even if it is to allow them to work for me with peace of mind in the future, I will not break the contract."

Beauxbatons, study room.

Unlike the Hogwarts library, Beauxbatons completely separated the two functions of the library and the study room, and established a library and a study room respectively.

Barre came to the study room and found Furong who was looking at something. He walked up and asked, "Fu Rong, what are you looking at?"

Barre and Fleur were able to follow Maupassant to welcome Sean together, and their relationship was naturally very good. Perhaps it was due to inferiority complex, or maybe it was self-awareness. Barre was one of the few men who did not covet Fleur, which is why Fleur could become friends with him. one of the reasons.

She comes from a humble background, but is self-reliant and hardworking. For such people, Furong has always had a good impression.

Looking at Barre sitting in front of her, Fleur flashed the journal in her hand and let Barre see the title on the cover of the journal.

Like Fleur, when he saw the familiar name on the title, his face also showed a hint of shock, and he said in disbelief: "Sean Burst, is the one we greeted? He can actually be in "" Published a paper on "The Golden Crucible"? Is there something wrong? Isn't it the same name?"

As soon as he said his words, Barre shook his head repeatedly and said: "No, no, the title above says it is Sean Burst of Slytherin at Hogwarts. With such an accurate identity, it should be him. …

I remember that this Sean Bursted should have just spent his first year at Hogwarts. Such a child could actually publish a paper in "The Golden Crucible". This is really...

What a surprise. "

"Want to see it?"

Looking at the "Golden Crucible" handed over by Furong, Barei was about to take it, but paused and asked, "What about you?"

"I've finished reading his paper, I can read other things first."

"That's fine, thank you."

After taking the "Golden Crucible", Barre started to look at it. As he looked at it, a look of shock gradually appeared on his face, and he said: "The reformation of the formula of the Forgetting Potion is nothing, but some of the techniques in it are mine. If it can be used in other potion formulas that have not been seen before, wouldn’t it have universal applicability?”

"I've also thought about this. It's not that easy. You see, there are two more materials in his formula, which need to be matched with this special technique. In fact, this formula can be regarded as saving time and increasing costs. Although The extra cost is nothing and is completely acceptable compared to the production time, but once it is put into other potions, that may not be the case."

"Anyway, this is really a very genius idea. I regret not getting to know him properly..."

Sean didn't know that the latest issue of "The Golden Crucible" that had just gone on sale today had really made him a little popular. Although many Hogwarts students knew about it, when they saw the latest issue When they read the issue of "The Golden Crucible", they and their doubtful family members were still shocked by Sean's name on the cover of "The Golden Crucible".

sunset.

Sean closed the book in his hand, glanced at Jason who had slept for an unknown amount of time, stood up and stretched a little, and then said to Aldrich: "Aldrich, let's go have dinner. , a little hungry."

"Master, you have just read so many books, so you will naturally feel hungry. Let's go to the auditorium to eat now."

After the words fell, Aldrich reached out and knocked on the table lightly. Jason, who had been sleeping restlessly, was immediately awakened. Looking at Sean and Aldrich who stood up, he also stood up immediately.

"You, you don't want to watch it?"

"Young Master is hungry, now you have to go have a meal."

"understood."

Aldrich took the first step to clear away the books on the table, then stood next to Sean and followed Sean out of the library ahead of Jason.

Walking between the garden and the Quidditch field, Sean's mind was still thinking about the basic books on alchemy he just read. It has to be said that compared to subjects such as Potions and Transfiguration, it is also basic. The alchemy books were indeed at least two levels of difficulty. In one afternoon, Sean could barely understand half of the book.

Moreover, there are some things about the alchemy circle in the book that Sean doesn't quite understand. This is also the reason why Sean hasn't started learning the ancient magic texts yet. He feels that he may need to learn the ancient magic texts in advance.
