The heavy rain is still pouring down from high altitude, and it is particularly strong with the help of the strong wind, making it very difficult for people to even open their eyes while standing in the rain curtain.
Thunder was rolling above the clouds, and lightning was wandering aimlessly inside. From time to time, a thunder falls, which always makes people's hearts tremble.
Because the dark clouds that were so low that they seemed to be coming down at any time completely covered up the sunshine that should have been there, it was obviously during the day, but this sea area seemed to be gloomier than at night.
If you were standing on the deck of the Change at this moment, surrounded by storms, showers, thunder, and huge waves, you would definitely feel the helplessness and panic as if you were isolated from the entire world.
This is undoubtedly a kind of shock that nature can show.
And it is under this situation that if a voice suddenly comes from behind you through all the chaotic noises... I think most people will be shocked!
Right now, the reactions of Enns and Alexander are the best proof.
"...Where are you going?"
When the two people who had just stepped out of the cabin and onto the deck heard this unclear voice coming from behind, they both froze subconsciously.
Her voice seems to be more mature - at least it's definitely not a "kid" of the same age as the two of them. So... it's the professor? Or a senior student
However, Dannes and Alexander slowly turned around to take a look. However, he found that the other party was actually wrapping his whole body in a hooded waterproof cloak. The strong wind kept blowing, and the other party was wrapped more tightly.
At this moment, Enns' whole body was tense and he did not take the initiative to speak. However, Alexander, who was more optimistic and generous by nature, couldn't help but test dryly:
"We... just wanted to find something. Maybe you know, yesterday we practiced dueling on the deck and were punished by Professor McGonagall... It wasn't until later that we discovered that one of my magic books about Defense Against the Dark Arts might be on the deck. That’s when it accidentally fell on the deck.”
To say that Alexander's explanation is reasonable for the time being, if it had been someone else, he might have agreed with it. It's a pity that the figure standing in front of them now is unlikely to believe his harmless lie.
"Did the magic book fall? Huh... OK! Then hurry up and find it! If it's too late, it will be blown away by the strong wind... By then, you might have to take a lifeboat to look for it on the sea! Right? ah?"
The cloaked man who followed the two of them out now was naturally Malfoy.
And obviously, even after experiencing so many horrible experiences that are unspeakable, his habit of mocking others has not changed much. This is probably a big or small thing.
However, I have to say that his two sarcastic words did hit the heart of Enns and Alexander accurately.
"you-"
Alexander squinted his eyes in the rain and looked at Malfoy with a slightly astonished and complicated expression. For a moment, he didn't know how to answer.
And Enns, who noticed that he seemed speechless, finally spoke with some helplessness until now:
"It seems that you have heard some of the conversations we just had... In that case, okay! I admit that we did not lose any magic books, we just want to leave the Change! So, you are satisfied ?"
In Alexander's slightly surprised eyes, Enns simply told the truth to him. Seeing this, Alexander opened his mouth as if to stop him, but was blocked by Enns with a wave of his hand.
Then, he changed the topic again:
"But... Sir, it seems to me that your actions are not very aboveboard, right? You followed us sneakily to the deck, and you gave us cold words as soon as you came up. If your identity is a certain professor, , then I think it can only be Professor Snape, but there is still a big difference between your body shape and his!"
Having said this, Enns couldn't help but shook his head.
"Oh, right! And... To be honest, your voice and the tone of your words actually remind me of a person - Mr. Malfoy, you braved the storm to follow us on the deck, could you? Is it just to make fun of us?"
"Malfoy?"
This time, Draco was not surprised, but Alexander, who was standing next to Enns, was surprised first.
"You mean... he's Draco Malfoy, the sixth... oh no, fifth year Slytherin?"
To be honest, Malfoy didn't have much reaction when Enns revealed his identity, but he was angered by Alexander's "slip of the tongue".
After all, he was still worried about being repeated a grade.
"Yes! You guessed it right, I am Draco Malfoy, a fifth-year student!" Malfoy's face in the shadow of the hood gradually showed a hint of anger, "But even so, I have to be better than You are several grades above you - do you believe it, if I go to Professor Snape and say one thing now, he will lock you in a small dark room again? You know, this time it will definitely not be just for one night. Confined!”
"Oh, Mr. Malfoy! I mean, I'm sorry, I just accidentally said the wrong thing, but I didn't have any intention of mocking you in return!" Alexander waved his hand.
But of course, Enns had no intention of apologizing, because he obviously had no need to apologize. I saw him frowning slightly and said calmly:
"Mr. Malfoy, I don't know if you still remember what happened between us - after all, Professor Maclean told me earlier that you were being affected by dark magic at that time. What you did Things are not 'completely' your intention."
As he spoke, Enns paused for a moment, and then continued:
"However, those 'unfriendly' actions you did towards me are always facts that actually happened."
"Um?"
When Malfoy heard this, he couldn't help curling his lips and said:
"What, is it possible that you still expect me to feel guilty about this, so you just let you go? Let me tell you, although everything that happened at that time was indeed beyond my control, my words and deeds have still affected me to this day. It’s still in my mind and has not been forgotten—to be honest, you were lucky that I didn’t kill you in the Slytherin Chamber of Secrets!”
"Humph, isn't it!" Enns couldn't help but sneered, "If I didn't have the medicinal support of the Fuling Elixir at that time, even if I didn't die, you would probably take away half of my life... However, today I can I’m not here to settle old scores with you. Under the current situation, no one has the time to dwell on what has already happened!”
"And I guess... you are the same, right?"
