Chapter 324 The so-called consultation)
·
Wo Bu Geng Xin
Luke was not surprised by Pansy's arrival.Malfoy had told him that Pansy was going to talk to him.
But Luke couldn't think of anything Pansy could discuss with him.
The neutrality of the Parkinson family has always been famous.In all previous wars between nobles, the Parkinson family has always been neutral.This is actually a very outrageous thing.Because maintaining a neutral state in a war is not an easy matter.
Either your strength can reach the level where both sides of the war can't kill you.Or, the benefits of both parties are in place.
Whichever it is, it doesn't look like an easy thing to do.
The reason why the Parkinson family has maintained neutrality for hundreds of years has long been buried in the piles of old papers of various families. It is not that simple to find the reason.Therefore, Luke did not expect the Parkinson family to be on his side.
And if Pansy wants to join the group alone...
Unfortunately, Pansy is of little value.
Luke looked at the girl in front of him.Not very old, but already able to see the excellent appearance.But even so, she is not capable of helping Luke in the slightest.
The so-called interpersonal skills, no one can compare with Luke himself.And those connections among the nobles, a part of Luke himself, plus a part of the Malfoy family, have left the Parkinson family with no room for meddling.
As for talent... Pansy Parkinson was not enough to compare with Hermione and Tyler.
Luke admits that it's not like the girl he saw in the movie in his previous life.But functionally there should be no difference.
His positioning of Pansy is... an outsider at the front of the audience.
But he still behaved very politely.
"Long time no see Pansy, I heard you have something to do with me?"
Luke was somewhat curious. Although he didn't think this girl could bring him any surprises, he still kept looking forward to it.At least on the face of it.
Pansy took a deep breath and said, "Luke, my father thinks I should stay away from you."
Luke was dumbfounded when he heard this.
After a long time, he said with some confusion: "Although I don't know what Mr. Parkinson has misunderstood me, I think this matter still depends on you."
Luke poses as a mentor and friend.In other words, the politeness that a person should have is still maintained.
Pansy looked at Luke's expression and continued, "But I think I should stand with you. Because you represent the future."
When he said this, Pan Xi was very serious.Her seriousness also made Luke feel puzzled.
Not wondering why she was so serious.Instead, I wonder if there is anything worth mentioning about this kind of thing?
"I am also confident that I can create a better future. If you are willing to join, I am very welcome."
Luke's greeting was neither cold nor warm.
And Pansy was also a little discouraged seeing Luke's tight performance.After all, she knew very well that until now, Luke hadn't believed her sincerity.Or, Luke didn't think she was worth taking the initiative to win over.
She's not as smart as the two girls around Luke though.But sensitivity in such matters is not bad.
So she said with some distress: "I need the truth, what are you planning? I need to know, and then I can make up my mind, whether or not... to fall to you."
Luke heard what she meant.
I also realized that Pan Xi was not only talking about himself, but the entire Parkinson family.
This made him subconsciously open his eyes, but at the same time suppressed his emotions in a calm state.
"But . . . Pansy . . . there's no insurance at the table."
Luke said calmly, "You think too much."
After speaking, he shook his head and was about to turn around and leave.
Wizards are not all fools, especially noble groups.There are always some smart people who are aware of the existing risks and then prepare in advance.Or simply bet on Luke's side.
Luke doesn't know if they have insurance, but if their insurance can take effect at will, it will be Luke's incompetence.
The thing itself cannot be done without a desperate determination.
It is not too much to hesitate when you are still waiting and watching.
But he has already decided to enter the arena, but he still looks forward and backward.Luke didn't know whether the decision was made by Mr. Parkinson or Pansy's own.But it doesn't matter anymore.
Such teammates can only be a burden.
Pansy looked at Luke's leaving back with doubts in his eyes.
She didn't know, did she do something wrong?Why did Luke leave all of a sudden.
This made her already tangled and turbulent mentality even more unstable.Anxiety welled up from the bottom of my heart.
But Luke only regarded this as a small episode.
After all, at the end of the day, things have developed to the present, a British, not so strong old noble, can no longer stop him.
Therefore, the Parkinson family is already a dispensable option.
Now that you're in the game, it's okay to want to be a veteran.But the real important position has long been occupied by others.
At the beginning, I was not optimistic or simply didn’t know. When it was in full swing, I was entangled in whether I should end. When the situation ended, I finally made up my mind, but the matter was over.
No matter which side wins, the benefits are all divided.
This may be the mental journey of those who maintain neutrality.
..............................
a few months later
"it is finally over!"
"You can go home!"
"I'm going to Paris this summer. Going there to see my aunt! She opened a bar in Paris!"
"I'm going to India. My father said that I can see some special magic there, which is good for my vision."
……
Discussions among students about vacations often mean the end of a school year.
They spent the whole second grade without incident.During this school year, they experienced a period of strict management that made people unhappy, but in the end their "struggle" was still victorious.
Under their arguments, the students still made the professors take back their orders.This is a big victory for the students to come together.
Of course, they thought so.
Only a few people know that when they were under strict control, a young man used all his strength to deal with Voldemort who wanted to make a comeback, and found the secret treasure left by his family's ancestors by the way.
And not long after, he really met his ancestor, Salazar Slytherin.And basically it can be regarded as completing another piece of the puzzle of their own power.
And if you want to ask this boy, what impressed him the most during this school year?
"The flame that ignites will always leave a little spark."
Luke was in the box, looked at the three girls in front of him and said with a smile.
Taylor, Hermione, and Luna didn't pay attention to Luke's words.Hermione frowned, writing and drawing on a piece of straw paper, seeming to compete with the formulas one by one.Taylor held a book and looked at it intently. Obviously, the name of the book was "Potion and Alchemy".The small print on this book is densely packed, and Luna, who was sitting next to Taylor, just glanced at it and lost interest.Then he scratched his cheek with one hand, and gently stroked Booker's head with the other hand, watching the still life outside the window fly by with a chuckle on his face.
Luna seemed to be smiling all the time, Taylor seemed to be desperately acquiring knowledge, and Hermione seemed to be attacking the commander of the mathematics fortress.
In short, the three girls simply replied to Luke's words.
"Correct!"
"It makes sense!"
"good."
The perfunctory response that couldn't be more perfunctory also made Luke twitch his mouth.
His charm is great.It became more obvious when the figure was almost mature.
But the three girls around him have been with him for a year or two, and longing is the furthest distance from understanding.And the three girls who were too close to Luke had long since lost their vision for Luke.Of course, that doesn't mean they don't care about Luke anymore.It's that they know that there is no need to care about such trivial matters.
Who would believe in Luke's words and regard every sentence as a classic?
Luke's little fangirls.
It's not that there are none, but there are indeed none among the three people in front of me.
Luke shook his head, thinking about his experience this year is also a little emotional.
Fortunately, there are not many things to do this summer vacation.Although I'm afraid I still won't be free.But after all, he didn't have to go to the adventure land.
More and more people are available under his command, and he can safely entrust more tasks to them.
Not a hands-off shopkeeper.It's that the people under him must understand what they want to do, and at the same time, why they do what they do.
If one day Luke leaves, no matter for that reason, or whether their goals have been achieved, these people can at least maintain it.
It will not be the death of people.
The three girls in front of them each have their own pursuits and dreams, and the sound of fighting outside the door can be heard from time to time.
There was warm sunshine outside the window, while Luke yawned, leaned on the seat, closed his eyes, and enjoyed the comforting tranquility.
And when he closed his eyes, Taylor looked up, and the hand who turned the page subconsciously relaxed a lot.Hermione, on the other hand, exhaled lightly to make her feel less irritable, so the voice of writing and drawing on the paper was also much quieter.
Luna still didn't respond.At times like this, she was inherently quiet.
In this way, the Hogwarts Express carried the Hogwarts students through deep forests and valleys, across long rivers and farmlands, towards their summer vacation, their happiness, and their future.
And in this car, the boy who is most closely related to the future has already fallen asleep.
………………
Luke walked on the path in the forest, and the cold wind was blowing in the darkness.From time to time, it brushed across Luke's cheek, bringing a touch that made Luke feel slightly painful.
The moon was dark and the wind was high, and there were rustling sounds in the woods.It seems that something is peeping, and it seems that some invisible beast is whispering.
Luke looked at everything in front of him, straightened his waist, and took out a lantern with blue light from his chest.
The darkness ahead was broken, but unfortunately not much.
Instead of making Luke feel safer, the light made him feel more dangerous.
After all, in such a forest, exposing one's position is really not necessarily a good thing.
So Luke stopped, and after pondering for a moment, he hung the other party's lantern in his hand on a tree.At the same time, he himself left the path, hid in the bushes, and raised a sharp-edged stone from the ground.
Identity change at this moment.
The prey, became the hunter.
And Luke didn't have to wait long.
After a while, he heard the friction of the branches of the bushes.Apparently, something was about to come out of the bushes.
Luke was ready to throw it any moment as he clenched his hands.
But the sound died away quickly.
Nothing happened.
Obviously, the beast hiding in the dark also noticed something was wrong.He kept himself still, making Luke feel afraid to take the initiative.
After all, whoever takes the initiative now is exposing his position.
Luke was able to deduce the approximate location of the other party along the direction of the sound.
But this position is not accurate, and it is even possible that the other party lied to him.The other party probably doesn't know Luke's location, that is to say, which hunter is more patient now.
Lanterns hung on the branches gave off a faint blue light.It shouldn't be an eye-catching color, but it is so shining in this dark forest.
Luke longed for that little light.Because that's the symbol.
At the same time, he also knows that many people yearn for that light.Because although it is dazzling, it is like a lighthouse, which can guide the direction.
But Luke wasn't fooled by that so-called leadership position.On the contrary, he prefers the feeling of being a planner in the dark.
Of course, the premise is... the lamp must be in his hands.
After a tormenting time in the dark, Luke's patience paid off.
The rustling sound sounded again.The other party still couldn't bear the temptation and decided to show up.
At the same time, the stone in Luke's hand has been raised high.
Ready to give each other a hard time at any time.
Soon, a big black dog appeared on the path.He cautiously looked at the lantern in front of him very vigilantly.The nose sniffed vigorously.
Luke saw the other party's vigilance and knew that now was not a good time to do something, so he continued to wait and adjusted his body to the most suitable posture for exerting force.
When the dog couldn't resist the temptation and went to ask for the lantern, it was the best time to do it.
The black dog's biggest threat to him was its mouth full of sharp teeth.
But as long as there is something in his mouth, then there is no threat to Luke.
However, just as Luke watched the black dog getting closer and closer to the lantern, he was about to make a move.The movement of the black dog's snout stopped.
He suddenly looked at where Luke was, and rushed towards Luke with his teeth bared.
Luke subconsciously threw the stone in his hand, but was easily dodged by the vigilant black dog.
When the black dog opened its mouth and bit Luke... Luke opened his eyes.
The three girls in front of him cast concerned eyes.
But Luke was still thinking about the black dog.
"Blake?"
But Luke couldn't think of anything Pansy could discuss with him.
