"Miss, if I'm not mistaken, that living corpse... should be Miss Ida Brandt, whom we just met in the side hall."
Yes, although they had just met him, Weili was stunned and failed to recognize him. The old housekeeper noticed this and whispered a reminder behind her.
"is her?"
After Weili heard this, she couldn't help but take a few more steps forward and take a few more looks at the figure that was lying on the ground with a cry of blood dripping from it.
"Oh, it's true... But how did she become a living corpse? Wasn't she fine before?"
As she spoke, she looked left and right, and finally naturally turned her gaze to Mrs. Maxim—to be precise, it fell on the other party's wrist that was already tightly shackled.
After staring curiously for a while, she said:
"Ma'am, did you do this?"
"Uh... not me, of course not."
Being handcuffed by the Federation as a suspect and taken back for interrogation and investigation, Maxim was able to reluctantly accept his fate and cooperate when he was temporarily unable to defend himself. But when people really ask this question, no matter who is asking this question, they cannot admit it even to death.
"Is that so?" After hearing this, Willy couldn't help but nodded. "The appearance of living corpses here in Beauxbatons is not a trivial matter. So who could do this?"
As mentioned before, the status of the Blois family is still very high, and the public behavior of anyone in the family usually attracts a lot of double-eyed attention. And now, of course, Willy, the "little princess" of the Blois family, is not to mention.
Seeing that she was very interested in this incident and seemed to believe Maxim's words easily, the expressions of "some people" suddenly became a little strange.
Is this Mademoiselle Willy Blois planning to make her stand clear
Although this did not go beyond the expectations of the Brandt family owner, after actually seeing it, he immediately felt a lot of pressure - the Brandt family has not really defeated Blois to this day. Even if the family is once, even if all the major wizarding families have been weakening to a greater or lesser extent in modern times, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. The Brandt family does not want to have a head-on confrontation with the Blois family!
However, before he could figure out what to do, he discovered that Willie actually didn't seem too obsessed with the question of "who is the murderer?"
"Well... forget it." After thinking about it for a while, Willy suddenly put the question aside and turned to the old housekeeper and said, "Things in Denmark are more important. Don't stay here. Nothing is wrong with me, you should go and ask your family to send someone to rectify the team first!"
I remember that during the previous conversation in the side hall, Willie said that she would transfer the wizards from the Granger camp to Denmark, so now she and the old housekeeper came out mainly to let the old housekeeper go back in person to convey her meaning. .
To be honest, Willie actually wanted to take her to Denmark with her.
It's a pity that, firstly, she no longer has relatively qualified fighting ability, and secondly, of course, it is because of Maka's previous entrustment - she will never leave Beauxbatons before Maka comes back.
"But, miss... it's too dangerous for me to leave now."
When the old housekeeper heard this, he glanced at the messy scene outside the school and then said this.
"It's okay. It won't take long to go back and forth."
Weili didn't realize that she was wasting the time of other people here at all. She just said to the old housekeeper in front of everyone inside and outside the school gate:
"What's more, I just saw an acquaintance and I just want to chat with him for a few words at this moment - you go first! I'll be here waiting for you to come back."
"acquaintance?"
After the old housekeeper heard this, he looked around again, thinking that Willy wanted to talk to Mrs. Maxim and others here. But who knew the next moment, he saw Willy suddenly turn around, then directly raised his hand and pointed towards the flowers on the roadside not far away.
"Here! Professor Lupine."
Under Weili's clear finger, everyone couldn't help but follow her hand and look towards the flowers beside the avenue. At the same time, as expected, a figure suddenly stood up from the half-human-height flower bush, patted a few petals above his head, and shrugged slightly awkwardly.
"Miss Blois, and everyone... Maybe you won't believe it, but I'm really just passing by."
Yes, just as Willy said, it was Lupin who appeared among the flowers at this moment! And it's unclear whether he hid it too well or too badly. Even though many powerful wizards present didn't notice it, Willie saw it through at a glance.
And at this moment, Ms. Dumitru, who had paused for a moment because of the appearance of the Blois family, finally spoke again.
"'Professor Lupin'? Is that Remus Lupin?"
With some suspicion in her eyes, she looked Lupine up and down and asked following the name Willy just called him.
"Oh, yes... you should know that I served at Hogwarts for a time in the past."
"Well, I know." Dumitru nodded, glanced at Willy for a moment, and then continued with a slight frown, "Then, Mr. Lupin, can you explain a little bit why you were hiding there just now? In the flowers? Based on your answer, I may consider whether I need to take you back to the federation headquarters for review."
"this-"
Not to mention the reason why Lupine came to Beauxbatons today, at least the reason why he hid in the flowers just now was to avoid being involved in this accident.
However, he definitely couldn't say that, unless he wanted his explanation to become even more pale and guilty.
After thinking about it for a moment, Lu Ping stepped forward and said:
"Ms. Dumitru, this matter actually involves a relatively big secret. I can tell you, but... after hearing this, please keep it secret from others."
"I will make my own judgment on this." Dumitru did not agree directly, but he did not refuse either.
Lu Ping could only shake his head when he saw her unwilling attitude.
"It doesn't matter if you tell President Ajinbad. Other than that, I ask you to keep it a secret."
He said this, and then he leaned into Dumitru's ear, and whispered for a while under the other's vigilance. After a while, the two separated, only to see Dumitru frowning and staring at Lupin a few more times before nodding slightly.
"Okay! I will only report this matter to Mr. President, don't worry!"
