Chapter 2482 gossip house (on)

In the south of Alsace, there is a small town called Ilfitte. A while ago, Napoleon sent the gendarmes there to arrest a group of robbers. A small group of these people passed by there.

The bandits received wide support among the masses. In order not to startle the enemy, the gendarmes did not live in the town, but camped in the forest five miles outside the town.

After arranging the order of the night watch, everyone except the night watchman fell asleep. Originally, it was just a normal day, until the captain suddenly felt something wrong in the middle of the night. When he got up, he found that the guard in charge of the night watch was gone.

He quickly woke up everyone and extinguished the fire. The winter in Alsace is much colder than that in Belgium. He lay down in the snow for about half an hour. Seeing that there was no other movement, the captain asked the others to leave. Waiting for orders, and then went to find the missing team member by himself.

He walked along the footprints on the snow for about three minutes, and then found the team member, who was standing motionless in place.

"Joseph." The captain called the team member, but the latter was indifferent and continued to stand like a dementia.

The captain didn't dare to be careless, he lit a torch, and then threw it in the dark direction where the team members were looking. Composed of stone columns, the top of the column is a sculpture of the Holy Spirit, and the base of the column has an inscription.

It seemed to be written in Latin, but the captain did not know Latin, and after copying the text, the captain tied the player with a rope and led him away from the place. After returning to the campsite, Joseph woke up. He didn't know what happened and when his teammates woke up.

The next day, the team leader and his team members asked the nearby villagers and woodcutters about the stone pillars in the forest, but no one wanted to mention it, so they left one after another. Finally, the team leader gave a big reward and found out from a hunter. something happened.

About 100 years ago, there lived a family of 7 in the town, a pair of poor and smart parents and five children, 2 boys and 3 girls. It was nothing unusual at the beginning, and the children in this family were all quiet with normal intelligence. Teenagers, but one day a "mischievous spirit" came to their home and haunted them for more than a year.

This stone pillar originally belonged to that family. After exorcising the demon, the priest removed it from the family's house and placed it alone in the forest. It was managed by someone before, but no one went there after the Revolution.

The captain waited until noon, when the sun was at its strongest, and took two team members to investigate. The pillar was still in place, but a tree behind it had grown a lot after a hundred years. It may be that the roots of the tree shook the foundation of the pillar. It looks a little tilted. The captain dug under the pillar twice with a shovel and found a hole underneath, and then he wrote a letter to report the discovery to his superiors.

The French Ministry of Magic sent wizards, but they were not with the soldiers, but "protected" the senior commanders. After receiving the information, two wizards went to investigate, and then there was no more information, waiting for the commander to send someone When I went to Elfit to find out what happened, the place was deserted, as if it had been robbed by robbers, and the original military police and wizards were gone.

"And the pillar?" asked Rabastan Lestrange.

Georgiana ignored him.

When Peeves was almost expelled from Hogwarts, she used weapons such as guns and cannons that would injure the lives of students. She didn't know how angry this mischievous elf who was expelled from the house would be.

"Let's first ask people to find out what happened to the family who was harassed by mischievous elves 100 years ago." Georgiana said calmly, "Paris has all the archives of the church library."

"Of course they are happy and happy to continue living together." Lestrange said sarcastically.

"You see the Latin down there?" said Georgiana.

Lestrange looked at the letter.

"Four kids," Georgiana said. "Where's the other kid?"

Lestrange didn't answer.

"Go and check, fortunately, we have convenient communication."

"Alsace is a Protestant area, and Protestantism does not approve of exorcism." Lestrange said.

"I don't think so." Georgiana shook her head, "Even in England, there are villagers who ask Catholic priests for help."

"I hope so," said Lestrange, and bowed away.

Not long after he left, Georgiana slumped on the couch.

Before she could catch her breath, the door opened again.

"Can the lounge be used for what it should be!" Georgiana roared.

"Oh, you thought the time at halftime was really for us to rest?" Charlotte said. rant, it’s like hearing someone tell you to get up and go to work the next day after a hangover.”

"Terrible," Georgiana swears.

"Yeah, it sucks." Charlotte sat down in front of Georgiana "I told him you didn't win because if you told me you were 'the gates of hell' I wouldn't sleep with you Yes, have you ever seen a clever mouse touch a bait that looks delicious."

"He'll be flattered if you say that," said Georgiana.

"I had a good night except for the fact that he bet on me..."

Georgiana covered her ears.

"What else? Cry until you can't make a sound?" Charlotte said sharply, "If you fall to the ground, the opponent will not help you up, but will beat you until you can't stand up again, even if you will lose your life because of it, so don't You can't cry even if you fall to the ground!"

Georgiana said nothing.

"I won't be a boxer forever. One day I will retire and become a coach." Charlotte took out a cigarette from her handbag. "Look, this is what it feels like to listen to the coach during the intermission."

"I also want!"

"Good girls can't smoke."

Georgiana didn't care so much, took a cigarette from Charlotte's cigarette case, and then lit it up with magic. Charlotte didn't show much fuss, and smoked calmly.

"This world has never been fair." Charlotte said calmly, "The only thing we can live by is the rules. As long as the rules are still there, even if we fall to the ground, we can't continue to chase."

"Do you want to teach that 'Gate of Hell' a lesson?" Georgiana said viciously, "I know a lot of curses that can't kill people, but can make people uncomfortable."

Charlotte sneered. "He didn't win again."

"You think that's all?"

Charlotte suddenly approached Georgiana, "Do you think he will propose to me?"

Georgiana's eyes widened.

Charlotte leaned on the sofa and smiled cynically.

"Don't you feel sick?" Georgiana asked.

"No." Charlotte said firmly.

She didn't know what to say, she should have less to do with this kind of person, but Charlotte seemed unwilling and wanted to force her way in.

"When someone found out that I was his mistress, several people from the engineering team approached me, hoping that I could introduce them to the Earl and take over the construction of the new theater." Charlotte said.

Georgiana said nothing.

"And flowers, presents, you know, things that please a girl, but the big thing is that he met my father."

"What?"

"In addition to fast horses, there are people who like cars that can run fast."

"You think he likes you?" Georgiana asked.

"He just didn't win." Charlotte said indifferently, "This time he wants me to know who he is."

Georgiana soon found that the little affection she had built up for "Hell's Gate" because of the extravagance and novelty of the spectacle had evaporated.

"It was a magical night, until the moment when the 'gamble' was revealed." Charlotte said softly, "Have you ever felt that way?"

Charlotte was already like this, and Georgiana was not going to rub salt in her wounds.

"He gave you jewels?" asked Georgiana.

"Don't mention this!" Charlotte shook her finger, "I don't want to argue with you over this issue."

Georgiana was confused.

"Let's talk about Emma." Charlotte smiled. "It's safe for both of us."
