Chapter 286

Bang!

With a slight sound, Deveraux appeared outside the bunk at Hogwarts, and then looked around suspiciously, as if no one noticed him.

"Strange? This feels a little familiar."

Deveraux's mouth curled up, and he remembered something.

"Haha, no way?"

He already had some guesses about who did all this, but since no one around him noticed him, he would take a few more glances.

He casually glanced at the tall and thin wizard not far away - the man had returned to his companions, and seemed normal on the surface, but if you look closely, you will find that his eyes are scattered and his eyes are dull, as if his soul has been taken away.

Deveraux nodded with satisfaction, and then turned and walked into the bunk at Hogwarts.

"It's done, it was the people sent by Victor. We'll wait for them to give us big news and dig up some things."

Deveraux said slowly.

His eyes quickly turned to the center of the booth, his eyes were not surprised at all, but his expression deliberately showed surprise.

On the seat that originally belonged to him, there was a short old man sitting at the moment, wearing a straight dark formal robe, with a cane leaning against the edge of the chair, exuding a calm and unignorable majesty.

Lupin sat upright opposite the old man, his face full of tension, his fingers tightly grasping the armrests of the chair, as if he was afraid that he would not perform well.

"Sir Granger?"

Deveraux raised his eyebrows and smiled easily.

"Haha, I didn't expect you to come directly to our shop."

The old man raised his head and smiled slightly, his eyes were as sharp as a hawk, but with a hint of kindness.

He nodded, his voice low and powerful.

"I didn't expect it? You kid didn't welcome me very much? Haha, I guess you are thinking in your heart, why is this old man here, have you dealt with the affairs of the Statistical Association?"

Deveraux shrugged and showed a relaxed expression.

"Why would I think so, of course it's dealt with."

He secretly complained, haha, this old man guessed it right.

Sir Granger nodded with satisfaction upon hearing this, and then stood up, leaning on his cane, his movements elegant and calm.

"Okay, if you want to make big news, just don't involve our association. Well, I should go to the opening ceremony. Haha, have fun."

After saying that, he waved his cane lightly, and the whole person disappeared without a trace, leaving only a faint magical fluctuation.

Deveraux looked at the place where Granger disappeared, raised his eyebrows, and then sat down in the old knight's seat without any hesitation.

At this time, Lupin, who was sitting opposite, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He seemed to have just emerged from underwater, panting heavily, and the whole person slumped in the chair, and his tense nerves finally relaxed a little.

He didn't even care if there were people around watching, and rubbed his forehead with his hands, as if trying to calm his emotions.

"Huh--"

Lupin muttered in a low voice.

"Oh my god, I'm the only one left to face the Sir. I was really scared to death just now."

At this time, the host on the stage cleared his throat, and the opening ceremony officially began. The noise in the exhibition hall gradually subsided, and everyone's attention was drawn to the podium.

It can be said that Deveraux's timing was very good.

Taking advantage of this gap, Lupin came back to his senses, turned his head to look at Deveraux, his face full of uncontrollable anger, and whispered.

"Deveraux, do you know that the use of Apparition is prohibited in the exhibition! If Sir Granger hadn't helped you clean up your ass, we might have been kicked out now!"

"And what do you mean by big news?"

Deveraux shrugged nonchalantly, with a nonchalant smile on his face.

He raised his hand to adjust his cuffs, as if he didn't think there was anything wrong with his behavior just now.

"What's the big deal? If it doesn't work, I'll just cast a forget spell on everyone present, and the problem will be solved, right? Of course, the old man's method is indeed much more convenient, and I have to find time to learn it."

"As for the news, haha, just wait."

Sir Granger's every move is silent, which has a lot to do with his golden entry. Deveraux has been coveting this entry for a long time.

[Silent and Invisible (Gold): Because of eating an extremely rare herb, the illusion grass, he has the ability to make others unable to see or hear him at will. If others can't see you, they naturally can't touch you. 】

Damn, Deveraux is a little entangled in his heart now. Is it loaded into Karkaroff's or Sir Granger's?

Deveraux hasn't experienced this kind of difficult decision for a long time. The last time was when he just entered school.

As for some information about Umbridge that he dug up, Deveraux only planned to tell Dumbledore about this matter. Lupin knew too little and his ability was too weak. It's better not to let him know about this kind of thing for the time being.

Lupin's eyes instantly bulged like bells, and he lowered his voice but couldn't hide his shock.

"Everyone? Are you crazy? There are Aurors here! Besides, can you really control a forgetfulness spell of this magnitude?"

Hearing this, Devereux raised a meaningful arc at the corner of his mouth, and his eyes lazily glanced around, with a tone of certainty and arrogance.

"I'm not bragging, all the people here combined are no match for me."

Lupine was so angry at his words that he couldn't speak, and could only roll his eyes fiercely.

What neither of them noticed was that not far from the Hogwarts booth, the atmosphere in the Miskatonic University booth was slightly deserted.

"Professor, I thought you would be attending with representatives from Hogwarts."

"Haha, the principal of Hogwarts thought that I was new here and had no experience, so he didn't let me attend. I came on my own. Look, the opening ceremony has begun."

A dark-skinned man with a slender figure was chatting with several teachers and students.

He did not pay attention to the lively scene of the opening ceremony on the podium like others, but glanced at the Hogwarts booth with his peripheral vision.

This man is none other than the current Defense Against the Dark Arts professor at Hogwarts, Mesferos.

The corners of his mouth raised slightly, revealing a playful smile. It seemed like Devereaux and Lupine were watching every move they made.

At this moment, a strong hand gently tapped his shoulder.

Mesphilos turned his head slightly and saw a tall man standing behind him.

The man had short blond hair that exuded a metallic luster in the sun, and a confident and friendly smile on his face.

His clear facial features and sharp eyes make people feel like they want to obey.

"gentlemen,"

The blond man's voice was deep and magnetic.

"Want to play a game of coin toss? If you win, this gold coin is yours."

He said, taking out a sparkling gold Galleons from his waist.

The gold coin rotated flexibly between his fingers, as if to show off its purity and value.

Mesphilos's eyes fell on the gold coins, and there was a flash of interest in his eyes.

He looked up at the blond man, and the smile on his lips deepened.

He did not rush to answer, but looked at the man from head to toe with a thoughtful look, as if he was weighing something.

"OK,"

Mesferos finally spoke, with a hint of relief in his tone.

"Then I guess the dragon is on top."
