The Chinese girl from Hufflepuff is both timid and brave
Chapter 234: Strange Selwyn
Selwyn noticed some movement and turned back in confusion.
Cedric held his sleeve and said calmly: "I hope you can consider my words carefully."
"How do I know you didn't steal first... take it and then give it back?"
Sun Zhu ran over impatiently and pressed the nixie inside with his hands through the sleeves of both men.
At this moment, she had a talisman in her hand, which she had just exchanged from the store. It cost 30 experience points and was very painful.
But a small animal like the Niffler can squeeze into even a crack as small as the tip of a needle, so just catching it is useless.
I don't know how this guy got out with her, he must have been attracted by the amethyst on her neck. If it weren't for the fact that the necklace was a magic weapon produced by the system, it might have been stolen by Bob without anyone noticing!
God knows how shocked she was when she was eating and suddenly found something trying to snatch her fork!
This guy was also very agile. Seeing that the situation was not good, he ran all the way and collected countless yellow and shiny things along the way.
Out of Hufflepuff's sense of responsibility, she and Cedric acted decisively and ran over to catch the Niffler without even eating, but ended up being mocked by Selwyn.
Is it their fault that Sniff came out to steal things for some unknown reason?
I'll admit it if you have to blame her, but why do you still look down on Cedric?
While holding down Bob, who was caught in the trap due to his carelessness after getting the spoils, she used her body to block the sleeve that contained the Niffler and glanced at Selwyn.
If she hadn't been holding Sniff with both hands, she couldn't guarantee that she wouldn't give him the middle finger.
"We won't take things that don't belong to us. Do you think everyone is like you, with no bottom line at all? I've already said that in order to prove our innocence, we can help you get your things back, but you're still here, are all of you Slytherins so eager to get things done?" She couldn't help but raise her voice, "Why don't you ask Peeves, or try the Summoning Charm to see who has the thing."
The most commonly used and practical spell, the Flying Spell, can theoretically summon anything that belongs to you. Of course, it requires the caster to have a focused willpower and sufficient magical power. It can even be used to summon some living things, although they are generally very small. For example, Newt once used it to summon a Niffler, which might be Bob's ancestor.
But obviously, Rozier had tried it a long time ago, and obviously failed.
This at least shows that it was not done by Peeves. Many times, Peeves would get back the things he stole in this way.
It also shows that the lost item was not in the possession of any of them, otherwise it would have flown out of their pockets long ago.
But there is magical space magic in the Sniff's small bag, and the things it stole cannot be recalled in this way.
"If it is proven that you have wronged us, I will deal with this matter directly with the principal. Unless you apologize to us now."
Selwyn pursed his lips tightly and said nothing, but there seemed to be fire burning in his eyes.
"Zhu, Cedric, you two should go to the Quidditch training ground first." Cecilia walked over quickly, "I'll take care of this."
Sun Zhu turned around somewhat unnaturally, as if trying to cover something.
Cecilia looked down and saw that she was holding Cedric's hand tightly under his sleeve, with a conflicted expression and red cheeks - she didn't know if it was because of anger or something else.
"Well...you guys go quickly. Try not to report this to the professor. Let me try." Cecilia gently pushed their shoulders. "Don't worry, I know you've been wronged. Remember to apologize to Captain Field for me. I've been busy with graduation, NEWTs exams, and chairmanship this semester, so I can't attend every training session. I'm really sorry for your hard work."
"Please don't say that, Senior. We are the ones who are causing you trouble." Cedric straightened his back somewhat unnaturally and said in a voice as calm as possible, "Then we'll leave first."
Sun Zhu also pursed his lips and nodded at them, then followed Cedric out of the restaurant as if he was glued.
Michelle pushed up her glasses and said uncertainly: "They..."
Has her degree of myopia worsened?
"Well, it's okay. You'll get used to it in the future." Cecilia patted her shoulder and looked at Selwyn again.
Because it was already past meal time, there were not many people left at the four long tables, and even fewer people were paying attention to them.
Audrey and the others had already gone about their own business. Cecilia simply took off her glasses and leaned towards the edge of the table. "I don't want to escalate the conflict between the colleges, but Selwyn, you are so disappointing. When the principal appointed you and me as the presidents of the male and female student unions, he didn't expect you to be biased like you are now."
“Don’t you favor those two sophomores?” Selwyn lowered his head and said in a low voice, “Don’t act like you’re feeling wronged. There’s no such coincidence in the world. Who would believe that they just happened to pass by!”
"You first assume they are guilty, and then look for clues to verify your thoughts." Cecilia said, "There is no such logic in this world. This is a trivial matter, but you want to insult their personality in such a relentless manner. It is obvious that you want to take advantage of the opportunity to gain a higher position."
"In fact, you don't care whether they did it or not. You are just deliberately targeting Zhu and Cedric's parents who both work in the Ministry of Magic and both clearly support the new decree. I'm afraid your pure-blood family has already hated them, right? But you may not know that they are definitely the most difficult people to mess with in Hufflepuff right now. While Zhu is still willing to accept an apology, admit your mistake as soon as possible."
"Do you think you can do that with just a few words?" Selwyn smiled and said, "How naive. You are right. I don't care who stole the things. I just want everyone to know what kind of people the half-blood bastards are."
Rozier, who was standing there stupidly, didn't know what to say. He subconsciously wanted to leave this place, but was grabbed by Michelle.
"I didn't want to make a big fuss, but since you guys insist on going this far, Hufflepuff is not someone that can be easily bullied."
"I didn't know you were such a weird person before." Cecilia shook her head repeatedly. "It's because of people like you that the stereotypes of the academy are repeatedly deepened."
"Do you think I care about your opinions? Or am I afraid of so-called punishment?"
"Selwyn." Cecilia put on her glasses again and said seriously, "Do you need me to contact Madam Pomfrey for you... or consult a St. Mungo's psychotherapist for you?"
Selwyn walked away, leaving Rosier trembling.
Cecilia felt a little weird and uneasy.
"It's just impotent rage." Michelle said.
"Something must be wrong." Cecilia shook her head. "I hope things don't get any more extreme."
