You call this the mastermind?
Chapter 68: No comparison, no harm
Mrs. Chelsea had this idea not because Mellen had done something that made her look at him differently.
But because her "current son-in-law" Kevin was too disappointing.
The banquet incident happened last night, but now, most newspapers in the wizarding world have published Kevin's glorious deeds one after another.
The official newspapers of the Ministry of Magic of various countries, the school newspapers of major schools, the major private daily newspapers, and even some newspapers in places that are not under the jurisdiction of the International Wizarding Council...
In this environment where the moderates are dominant, Kevin's clever trap to trap a group of evil enemies who alienate the relationship between half-bloods and pure-bloods seems to be very correct.
After this matter is widely publicized, the contradiction between pure-bloods and half-bloods will naturally be eased.
And if a vicious incident like the Arthur incident happens again, then in public opinion propaganda, it can be very smooth to push the pot to those unknown enemies.
It can be said that a seemingly simple thing actually has a very far-reaching impact.
Correspondingly, the more far-reaching the impact of this incident, the taller the image of Kevin, the protagonist of the incident, in front of the public.
The mainstream media in the wizarding world are happy to promote this matter as a hot topic, because it fits the ruling philosophy of the moderates in the wizarding world.
The Felix family behind Kevin is also happy, and it can even be said that they are very happy to push their own lineage to the forefront.
Because this will bring many benefits to Kevin and the family.
So the old patriarch of the Felix family, knowing that his grandson was humiliated, still considered Mellen's feelings and even gave Mellen the boots of the wandering god, which the family considered very valuable.
However, on the other hand, in the eyes of an insider like Mrs. Chelsea.
The more the Felix family promotes Kevin as great and wise, the more incompetent the image of this prospective son-in-law is in her heart.
Normally, a teenager of fifteen or sixteen years old is not rebellious or dandy, but honest and obedient, and has a gentle temperament, which is already very good.
However, people are afraid of comparison.
What was Kevin doing when Mellen accidentally solved the assassination trap for her?
Kevin came to hang out in Graham, thinking about how to please his fiancée.
When Mellen took the initiative to help her save the situation inside the Mixed Blood Association, what was Kevin doing?
Kevin was still hanging out in Graham, and inexplicably wanted to make trouble for Mellen.
When Mellen saw through the conspiracy of the enemy group at the banquet and tried to lead her over, what was Kevin doing?
Kevin was scared silly. He had all kinds of life-saving cards on him, but he forgot to use them at that time.
And when Mellen used the newly acquired Wandering God Boots to break through the enemy's station, what was Kevin, the former owner of the Wandering God Boots, doing?
Kevin was contacting his family, thinking about how to forge his own achievements...
And, when Mellen "accidentally" helped her dig out the murderer behind the scenes, what was Kevin doing?
Kevin did nothing.
After being "busy" for most of the night, he couldn't bear it any longer, so he went back to catch up on his sleep...
On the contrary, after doing so many things, Mellen would be extremely tired as usual.
But when Mellen returned to the Mixed Blood Association, he still did not forget to read books to make up for his own shortcomings...
Comparing the two, the more they compared, the greater the gap.
As a mother, how could Mrs. Chelsea not think about her daughter's future destination?
If it weren't for a certain problem with her daughter, she would have decided to give up the marriage with the Felix family.
Because Kevin was really disappointing.
And Mellen, too, met her standards for a son-in-law.
"What a pity..."
After hesitating for a while while sitting by the window in the hall, Mrs. Chelsea, with a pale face, felt a little regretful.
Even if it was a thousand good things, for the future of her daughter, she couldn't really let Mellen be her son-in-law.
Otherwise, how could she risk the risk of her huge fortune being swallowed up to marry the Felix family?
The inner struggle quietly dissipated, and the lady looked at the secret book floating in front of her.
At this moment, her good friend Susan was constantly apologizing to her.
Because Susan accidentally became a "traitor".
Why did the murderer behind the scenes attach to Ernest?
Because his ex-wife Susan was a good friend of Mrs. Chelsea, and the two basically talked about everything.
But on the other hand, although they were divorced, Susan was still connected with her ex-husband, and the two even lived in a manor.
So many of Mrs. Chelsea's daily information and key traces fell into the eyes of the person behind the scenes without a trace.
This is also one of the reasons why she was so passive in this series of things.
And another reason, of course, is that the person behind the scenes is very familiar with her character...
Thinking of this, Mrs. Chelsea coughed unconsciously, and crystal sweat faintly overflowed from her pale forehead, making her raise her hand and tighten the snow-white fox fur cloak on her body.
It is still summer, but she feels cold all over.
This was not because she was hit by the truth of last night, but because she lost a drop of extremely precious blood last night.
"My dear sister, what are you waiting for..."
Looking at the bright grassland environment outside the window, Mrs. Chelsea seemed to be in a cruel cold winter, and her expression was a little dazed.
However, as a slight sound of footsteps approached, her weak demeanor instantly calmed down, her eyes became sharp again, and she turned her head to look at the approaching Butler Fox.
"Is there something wrong with Miss?"
Mrs. Chelsea has many butlers. Butler Fox is basically responsible for the secular and internal affairs of the manor. Unless there are special circumstances, he rarely goes beyond his duties.
So as soon as he appeared, Madam could roughly guess the scope of the problem.
"According to the report from the maid, the young lady is still sleeping," the old housekeeper replied in a low voice. “It’s just that there is some special news in Miss’s book of secret words.”
Mrs. Chelsea frowned upon hearing this.
After last night's incident, she banned her daughter from going out, banned several of her friends from visiting, and even monitored her daughter's "communication friends."
The purpose was not just because of anger, but because her daughter was actually one of the reasons why she and her sister broke up.
So of course she had to be on guard against this.
However, she could guard against the outside world, but she could not guard against the "Robin Refaeli Family's Adventure Guide" that caught her off guard.
That book is very mysterious. As soon as you fall asleep, you will inevitably fall into that story world. This is true for her, and so is her daughter.
Mrs. Chelsea was extremely resistant to this uncontrolled situation, but her daughter Alyssa liked it very much.
So since coming back, Alyssa has been "sleeping" and doesn't know what she is studying inside.
However, Madam actually checked the book carefully and found nothing dangerous.
And except for her "honest and responsible" apprentice, no one else can enter the world in the book.
So she just let her daughter wander around inside.
After all, this is better than having my daughter stay in the room without moving under the quilt all the time...
"Is it the chubby Kate family showing off her magician boyfriend to the lady again?"
Mrs. Chelsea inquired.
There are only three or two kittens in her daughter Alyssa's address book, and she can't even add her prospective fiancé Kevin as a friend.
So Mrs. Chelsea can easily think of special things related to the Book of Secrets——
Her daughter's good friend Winnie Kate recently dated a secular magician as her boyfriend. To others, this was tantamount to a very low-price behavior, and the little chubby boy was ridiculed for it.
However, on Alyssa's side, she found comfort.
Because Alyssa, like her, also likes, or admires, a secular person.
Therefore, the little chubby boy who was laughed at by others would receive envious questions from Alyssa.
So Xiaopangdun has been communicating with Alyssa frequently recently to seek comfort...
"No, it's about Mellen." Butler Fox denied Madam's guess.
"About Mellen?"
Mrs. Chelsea was a little surprised by this.
"As far as I know, they didn't friend each other last night."
"It was Fanny from the Aldang family. Through the projection spell, she sent an interview script to the lady, which involved Mellen."
With that said, the butler handed a printed interview draft to Mrs. Chelsea with a strange tone.
"That girl went to interview Melen not long ago, and then came to show off to the lady, saying that she took advantage of Melen."
"She also said that she is not going to wash her hands for the past two days..."
The Ardan family was accustomed to a career in wizarding publishing.
Madame also heard a little bit about Fanny, her daughter's best friend since childhood, working as an intern reporter at the Wizarding Education Newspaper.
However, her daughter's best friend went to interview her apprentice Meren and said such "obscene" words, which left the lady speechless.
However, when she took a look at the rubbing manuscript handed over by the housekeeper, she couldn't help but be startled.
There is no other content on this, it is basically the entire process of interviewing Mellen.
However, the girl in charge of the interview regarded it as a tool to show off, but Mrs. Chelsea could see the deep value behind the interview transcript.
"This kid always surprises me in unexpected places..."
This thought flashed through her mind. After thinking about it, she ordered Butler Fox: "Send this manuscript to Conyulu's secretary and ask him to take a look at it when he has free time."
"Do you need anything to note?" the butler asked.
"Need not."
Mrs. Chelsea shook her head, "The manuscript is very well written. We don't need to say more. Coneru will naturally recognize its publicity value."
Arzak Coneru, this name is a bit difficult to pronounce, but it is familiar to many wizards and even remembers it well.
Because he is the Minister of Magic of the United Kingdom of Blackthorn.
…
It is obvious that Meren's previous behavior of adding buffs to himself has already made progress due to the casual push from the rich woman teacher.
But at this time, he didn't think about whether this matter could be done.
Because he is now preparing to accept, or in other words, preparing to enter a special place to accept the so-called memory inheritance.
But before that, the old president of the Mixed-blood Association dragged him to a corner and claimed to teach him a special spell.
