Chapter 243: A different Maxim
Chapter 243 A Different Maxim
Fleur picked up a yellow candy and put it into her mouth, her eyes suddenly lit up.
"tasty."
“That’s Bee Bee Candy.” Kyle said with a smile, “One of Honeydukes’ best-selling candies. If you like it, I’ll send you some more after school starts.”
Fleur was about to nod, but suddenly thought of something, frowned and said, "Sorry, I didn't bring any greeting gifts."
She came here with the mentality of a competition this time, so naturally she didn't think of bringing any gifts.
I just didn’t expect Kyle to be so easy to get along with. Not only was he very humble, but he also took the initiative to give her gifts without being charmed.
This made Furong a little embarrassed.
“It’s okay, I’ll just make it up when we meet next time.” Kyle waved his hand with a smile and stuffed the box back into the bag calmly.
“Well, if we meet again, I will definitely make up for this gift.”
Fleur nodded, "And I will also send you French special candies after school starts. You will definitely like them too."
…
The conversation and performance of the two people were all watched by Maxim who was standing aside.
She nodded slightly, and the smile that had disappeared gradually appeared on her face again.
As expected, he is still a twelve-year-old child. Although he can resist Fleur's special talent of charm, he will still be nervous after being together for a long time.
No, now everyone has started giving gifts.
Even though we couldn't abduct him back to Beauxbatons on the spot, we made a good start.
Moreover, it would be terrible if this kid named Kyle really had no reaction at all.
There is no shortage of talented young wizards in the magic world, but it is rare to find those who are both talented and mentally mature.
Previously, she was thinking that if that grand event could be successfully held, she should set an age line or something to exclude Kyle.
Now that I think about it, there is no need to do this deliberately, just let nature take its course.
Seeing that the two of them were almost done talking, Maxim stopped paying attention to McPhail, who was chattering on the side.
She walked over and said with a serious face: "I didn't expect Dumbledore to tell you all that.
Leaking strictly confidential information to a student was something that had never happened before. "
“What’s the matter?” Kyle blinked and asked in confusion.
Maxim stared at him for a while, then suddenly smiled, "Yes, the sense of confidentiality is pretty good."
“Remember, that matter is still strictly confidential, so just know it yourself. If it is leaked, it will most likely be in vain.”
Kyle was even more confused.
But Maxim said to himself: "It seems that you must have guessed that Fleur will also participate, so you will meet again."
But you are right, Furong will definitely participate. "
Kyle opened his mouth.
He wanted to tell Maxim that he really just said a polite word just now.
Just like "I'll treat you to dinner later", it is a special way of talking between truth and lies.
A few pieces of candy were too much for him, and they were not worth much, so there was no need to care about them.
But soon, Kyle realized what Maxim meant.
The Triwizard Tournament!
Strict confidentiality, Furong will definitely participate...that's all.
But wouldn’t the Triwizard Tournament only start in two years’ time? Are discussions starting so early?
Kyle thought so, but the expression on his face did not change at all.
Maxim lowered his head and complained dissatisfied: "It's all the fault of that coward Karkaroff. The outcome of the negotiation was about to be reached, but he didn't expect that after hearing about what happened at Hogwarts, he was so frightened that he hid." Get up. Isn’t it just a wandering spirit? There’s nothing to be afraid of. That food..."
“Olim!”
McPhail suddenly said loudly: "There are still children here!"
"I'm sorry..." Maxim was silent for a moment: "I just don't understand what Durmstrang thinks about letting such a coward become the principal."
“Perhaps Karkaroff really has something important to do.” McPhail thought for a moment and said, “Didn’t he say that he would take a child to participate in the selection of the professional Quidditch team?”
“Do you believe this?”
Maxim said disdainfully: "Even if that child is a Quidditch genius, is it worthy of a principal personally sending him to participate in the selection? And he has to travel so far away...
Since when did Durmstrang take Quidditch so seriously? I always thought their broomsticks were used to clear snow! "
“Perhaps, they have changed.”
“Then we can only wait like this?” Maxim said angrily: “We have agreed that it will be held next year.
But now...who knows how long it will be delayed! "
"There's nothing we can do about it." McPhail shook his head. "Karkaroff represents Durmstrang. If he is absent, the matter can only be put on hold temporarily."
“Heh…” Maxim sneered.
A little irritated, she took her anger out on McPhail, "Stop standing there. Aren't you going to boil the potion? I'm still waiting to see your results!"
“I’m sorry, I suddenly don’t want to...”
Before McPhail could finish speaking, he found that his feet suddenly left the ground.
Maxim grabbed him by the collar and led him to the room at the back of the hall like a chicken.
“Wait a minute, what are you going to do, don’t pull me, let go, let go! I don’t want to endure it anymore!”
McPhail struggled desperately, but the size difference was too big, and he was eventually dragged into the small dark room.
Furong stared at all this with her mouth open, her views shattered.
In the hearts of all Beauxbatons students, Ms. Maxime has always been synonymous with elegance and self-control.
She never thought that this most perfect etiquette professor would behave so... rudely today.
“Don’t be surprised, kid.”
At this time, Nico finally put down the popcorn in his hand and said with a smile: "They are old friends, and it is understandable that they will be a little indulgent when they get along.
When you return to school, you will naturally see that elegant Olim again.
Oh, by the way, remember to keep it a secret for her. "
Hibiscus nodded mechanically.
“Want to go and see it together?” Nico invited with a smile: “McPhail rarely shows off his potion skills, this is a rare opportunity.”
"May I?"
"No problem at all."
Nico walked towards the room with Kyle and Fleur, but as soon as he came to the door, he heard a "ding-ding-dong-dang" sound coming from inside.
Kyle and Fleur looked at Nicoléme at the same time.
“Oh, you don’t need to worry at all.”
Nico seemed to have been used to it for a long time, and said calmly: "It will be fine after a while."
