Chapter 50: Soft Persimmon Melon
When Kevin was looking for Mellen, the "partner", and was about to give away his love boots.
As the villains of the manor attack, "Waiter" and "Cook" are gathering in a basement somewhere in Graham City to reflect on the operation.
Or, to sum up after a failed operation—
At the banquet, the words in "Iger"'s mouth suddenly reversed, making them completely unprepared.
And then the group of snakes that emerged from the ground caused their members to suffer heavy casualties.
"The group of disgusting reptiles that Isabella Chelsea kept seems to be getting stronger again."
In the dark basement, the two of them sat on both sides of an old wooden table, separated by a slowly burning red candle.
The light of the candle was erratic and dim, and the black smoke slowly rose from the wax wick, obscuring their respective faces in a hazy and gloomy manner.
Combined with the two long and narrow shadows reflected on the wall behind him, this place looks like a haunted scene.
"If it goes on like this, I'm afraid the nun will not be able to suppress her any longer."
"If that assassination had been successful not too long ago, none of this would have gone to this level."
"Yeah, reptiles without their masters are just a group of beasts with only instinct..."
Saying so, the two felt very depressed.
Manpower is sometimes poor, and even the top superhumans sometimes have two fists that are incomparable to four.
Therefore, some wizards who are powerful and have resource advantages will cultivate some "magical animals" for their own use.
For example, the dense group of reptiles they encountered tonight looked like a group of "miscellaneous fish" that could be destroyed easily.
But in fact, they are not only immune to magical attacks, their bodies are also very tough, and they have no other flaws at all except for their slow crawling.
However, this flaw, combined with the ability of that Mrs. Chelsea, is not a problem—
Based on some special method, where she is, the snake group is there, but it is invisible on the surface.
This means that if you want to use force against the lady, you must first eliminate the tens of thousands of snakes.
It's just that the ordinary little snake said that it is easy to destroy it. As long as you put in a certain amount of effort, you can always kill it.
But there are not only small snakes in the group of snakes, medium, large, and even giant pythons that are thicker than the waist of an adult are everywhere!
Several of them are powerful and possess unique abilities, and even the two of them are losing ground!
If it weren't for the fact that Mrs. Chelsea was worried about the many young wizards present, she would not have released an even bigger snake.
If it weren't for the hidden wounds on the lady's body, she couldn't do anything by herself, she could only drive her "pets" to defend against the enemy.
It was impossible for them to even escape from that manor, and it was inevitable that they would be wiped out.
However, even though the two had escaped from Ernest Manor, it was just the two of them.
Those other people basically did not escape the fate of being engulfed by the snake group.
Even if there are a few lucky ones who run away at random, they will not escape the fate of being arrested afterwards.
It can be said that this incident was a complete failure.
However, what makes them feel particularly heavy is that similar failures are not only in front of them in the near future!
Their original plan was to assassinate Isabella Chelsea while she was weak.
As long as she dies, Graham, a city that is very friendly to half-bloods, will be in chaos.
Then, under the circumstance that they secretly fueled the flames, some extreme pure-bloods will inevitably come to the forefront and use the death of Mrs. Chelsea to set off a political movement against mixed-bloods.
However, this plan, which had been in preparation for several years and cost them countless efforts, had inexplicably failed...
As a last resort, they could only use the backup plan, using the possibility that the lady sent people to investigate the possibility of the Mixed-Blood Association, and planted a hidden and dangerous bomb there.
When the time is right, the bomb will explode and cause a rupture in the relationship between the Half-Blood Society and Isabella Chelsea.
It can happen again unexpectedly.
Not to mention detonating the bomb, they didn't even have time to ignite the lead, the bomb was dug out extremely abruptly!
Although the bomb was dug up, the cracks left on the "surface" also had an effect.
But this is a lot weaker than the situation after the plan was successful.
If you want this crack to spread, you have to continue to work hard to invest more resources and energy in this matter...
Finally, this is tonight.
The preparation of this event is actually based on their success before they failed again and again.
At that time, they took in a young girl named Martha, and made some elaborate arrangements according to her identity and situation at the time.
So the Arthur incident, which made the mixed race feel extremely humiliating, was born.
The Arthur incident was regarded by them as a prelude to a series of split plans, and its success was tantamount to a "good start".
Therefore, when Martha came to report that Kevin of the Felix family was asking his friend Jim to use her to fight a hapless half-blood.
They believe that there is an opportunity to reproduce the Arthur incident, or to set off a more violent incident than the Arthur incident!
However, it is a pity that they, who think they are hunters, have unconsciously become the prey in the eyes of others without knowing it...
Unprepared, their team's strength in Graham City was basically wiped out...
"Kevin Felix..."
Speaking of this name, the "waiter"'s face became more and more gloomy.
At this moment, he did not doubt the words of the half-blood named Iger at the banquet, who was actually named Meren.
It can even be said that the other party's words made him suddenly realize-
The assassination of Mrs. Chelsea had been reported by their people. The night before the assassination, Kevin had a long conversation with Isabella Chelsea.
It's just that they thought that the two were talking about trivial matters related to the marriage of the two families, so they didn't care.
After the assassination failed, I didn't think about it.
On the contrary, I thought that Isabella had the **** luck and escaped the fate of death because she saw Mellen playing her "son-in-law" easily at the dinner party, and then aroused her vigilance.
There is no place to justify this kind of thing, and they can only blame themselves for being unlucky - at least they thought so at the time.
As for the Mixed-Blood Association incident, Martin Boswell, who had been infiltrated into the association that day, was alert to find something was wrong, and then reported the abnormality to Isabella, which finally completely destroyed their plan. Martin Boswell also had a good relationship with Kevin.
Because his grandfather is Isabella's housekeeper, Kevin even goes to Graham every time he arrives to play with him, hoping to get some information about his fiancee's likes and recent news.
However, although they knew that the two sides had this relationship, after the failure of the Mixed-Blood Association incident, they still did not think that it was related to Kevin.
They didn't even realize that Kevin of the Felix family had already been eyeing them in the dark.
So in the end, the so-called "teaching a certain mixed-race" plan was formulated under their noses...
They were puzzled when the plan began.
Because they had investigated that Merron before because of the failed assassination, and he was not a half-blood wizard at all.
And even if he is, if he wants to teach a lesson, it seems that there is no need to use the circumstantial means of setting up a banquet for humiliation.
Moreover, even if this method is used, the lesson steps that Jim formulated should not be so "soft".
So even though they didn't find anything wrong with Kevin at the time, they didn't lose their vigilance.
However, then they discovered new clues in the in-depth investigation of Namerun—
In the past year or so, the teenager has communicated with a woman named Juliana every once in a while.
But when they tried to investigate the specific content of the letter, they couldn't find any useful traces at all.
It was as if those communications had been cast on the famous "Crazy Talking Spell" in the wizarding world, and only the two parties in the communication could see the specific content concealed by the magic power of the spell.
After further investigation, they found that the lady named Juliana was most likely the new vice president of Oak Academy under Fort St. Grant, Eugenie Ransomer.
This clue was discovered by them contacting their own people lurking in Fort St. Grant, after a lot of energy wasted.
It is said that the female vice-principal used to call herself Juliana when she was still a wizard's apprentice.
So in line with the rumors circulating in the Mixed-Blood Association, "Iger" is the illegitimate child of a big man in the Kevin family.
To cooperate with that "Iger" earlier, using magic means to play Kevin in front of Isabella Chelsea.
Then they made a comparison, and they both had similar appearances with black hair and blue eyes.
They vaguely guessed that Iger was probably a relative of the female vice president, or even an illegitimate child.
The constant correspondence between the two parties was precisely what she was secretly teaching this mixed-race son who lived abroad!
This is actually a very common phenomenon, because in the current wizarding world, there is generally an atmosphere of "chaotic private life", otherwise there would not be so many half-blood wizards born every year.
And this can explain why the illegitimate child ran to Kevin to provoke, and it can also explain why Kevin is so "gentle" and wants to suppress the other party.
However, just when they thought the truth was like this, they started the plan with confidence, and even secretly laughed at the chaos in the private life of the wizard of the big family, when the senior official husband of the vice president had stolen his wife without knowing it.
The more realistic truth, but cruel and incomparable befalls them...
The so-called plan to suppress illegitimate children is fake!
The rumor that the so-called "illegitimate child" is not very talented is false!
Even bringing Kevin to the Mixed-Blood Association and staying for one afternoon is a complete lie!
Where did he get tricked by an illegitimate child?
He was clearly discussing with the other party the details of "hunting" their group!
As for my group of people, they were fooled without knowing it, and waited complacently for the success of the plan, but they were hit on the forehead with a blow, and they still haven't completely recovered...
Because it was so unexpected.
Kevin, who seemed to be hostile to his half-brother, illegitimately born from his own mother, actually joined forces with his half-brother, whom he should have looked down on, and ganged up on them! ?
Presumably the illegitimate child entered the Mixed-Blood Association before, and he secretly instigated it, right?
To go with that guy named Martin Boswell?
Or is it intended to be used as a long move, keeping an eye on small moves where they might be there in the future?
"You have such a cunning scheming at such a young age... as expected of a big family."
After thinking for a long time with a gloomy expression, the waiter, who finally thought he had understood everything, raised a touch of admiration instead.
"Unfortunately, it's a pure blood..."
"Where on earth did we start exposing?"
The "cooking lady" sitting opposite him didn't think so much, instead she was struggling with this issue.
"It must be that Martha went too far in that thing, so that Kevin discovered the abnormality."
The waiter said affirmatively: "Jim is the client, Kevin and Jim are friends, and it is easy to know some of these details."
"However, this can't explain the exposure of the assassination plan, right? It also can't explain why that guy can even detect the matter of the Mixed-Blood Association..."
"It certainly makes sense."
The waiter firmly believes: "If Kevin can recognize that Arthur is a group of people secretly provoking the relationship between mixed blood and pure blood, then he can think that Arthur was born in Graham City, and Graham was born in Graham City. The city is the most mixed-race friendly of any major city in the United Kingdom."
"He can also think that if we want to destroy the relationship between half-blood and pure-blood here, assassinating Isabella Chelsea is the easiest and most direct way."
"From this, he can even imagine that if our assassination plan fails, we will only focus on the Mixed-Blood Wizard Rights Protection Association. After all, this organization is very representative of the mixed-race class."
"And then, Kevin, who was not willing to respond passively, began to use the move he discovered first, that is, our lovely Miss Martha, to lay a trap for us in the name of "suppressing illegitimate children" ."
"In addition to being famous, the purpose is naturally to please his mother-in-law and his fiancee..."
At the end, the waiter sighed, "It can only be said that Kevin is too cunning, we did not lose unjustly."
You said such a long list, should you just make excuses for your failure?
The cook glanced at him when she heard the words, but didn't refute it.
There is no substantial evidence for the companion's conjecture, but they just need a reason to explain to their superiors why the mission failed.
Now that Kevin of the Felix family has jumped out, he has definitely tricked them once.
So what's wrong with putting the two previous failures on him as well?
After all, it sounds reasonable...
"What do we do now?" she asked instead.
"We can only expect the backup plan in the Cuckoo's side to work."
The waiter replied helplessly, "Otherwise, no matter how good the reason is, we will not be able to explain to the nun at all."
"What's the plan then?"
"I don't know, but since the nun regards this plan as her final trump card, she can definitely win with one blow!"
Having said that, the waiter at UU Reading www.uukanshu.com showed a smile on his face, "We just need to keep our expectations."
"But, don't you want revenge to go back?"
The cook is not willing to wait like this. She is still feeling aggrieved tonight and needs to vent.
"Then we can't beat Isabella. Damn Kevin and his **** brother can't be spared, right?"
"Don't act rashly for now."
The waiter shook his head and said, "How could they be unprepared for such a round? We have suffered heavy casualties now, and we can't have another accident."
"Perhaps the guards at the bastard's place will be relaxed?"
In fact, the cook has long since smoothed her train of thought, and she said without hesitation:
"After all, he is an illegitimate child. Even if he is highly regarded by Kevin, it is impossible for the Felix family behind Kevin to take a fancy to him, and it is even less likely to leave him any treasures for self-defense."
"This…"
The waiter was moved.
Tonight's incident caused them to suffer heavy casualties, and the conspiracy of the organization was completely exposed to the public, with endless troubles.
They are bound to be punished by their superiors afterwards.
So it is impossible to say that you do not want revenge.
But in the face of Felix, the top wizarding family, it is hard for them not to feel dreaded.
After thinking about it, it seems that there is really only the soft persimmon of an illegitimate child, which can be used to pinch.
…
An action against "illegitimate children" seems to be brewing like this.
However, as a client, Melen has no time to wonder if he will encounter retaliation.
Now that he has bid farewell to the teacher, he is looking for the long-lost Arthur around Ernest Manor.
