Harry Potter’s Book of Sin Chapter 108: Uninvited guests at the banquet

　　 To be honest, today is indeed a good day.

　　 In a very cold winter, there are occasionally sunny days.

　　 McMillan’s restaurant has large windows with excellent light transmission at the front and back. Light was projected through the branches around the mansion, illuminating the entire indoor space.

　　 At this time, there is a long large dining table in the middle of the restaurant. The table is flatly covered with a beautiful red and white grid tablecloth, and a variety of exquisite dinner plates are arranged on it.

　　 Those are large dinner plates for taking and eating, and they are still empty for the time being, but it is conceivable that after they are filled with food for a while, it will be another wonderful scene.

　　 Near the four walls, there are small round dining tables, so that guests can sit together with suitable objects and enjoy the food after eating.

　　 At this moment, there are already quite a few people in the restaurant. Most of them stood by the long table in twos and threes, each talking softly, as if they could not finish talking.

　　 "...I heard that two special guests are coming tonight, do you know who they are?"

　　 Just as Maca walked into the restaurant, he heard two wizards standing by the door whispering.

　　 "I just know it, it seems... McMillan is going to give us a surprise." Another older wizard shook his head in a meaningful way.

　　 "Isn't it a surprise..." Not far away, a noble-dressed witch suddenly turned around and said mysteriously, "It is said that this time it is one of those families!"

　　 "Oh—really?" The two wizards said in surprise together.

　　 "Who knows if it is true or false, it would be nice to have a little news-this time the McMillan house is hidden deep enough!" The witch waved her hand gracefully.

　　 "But... those families have disappeared for years, and some people are starting to guess if they have..."

　　"The details are there! It's not that easy!"

　　Maca just paused before hearing so much news. Although he didn't get any exact things from it, the information contained in it alone was enough for him to figure out a lot of things.

　　 walked a few steps further in, and he realized that it was not a coincidence that he could hear those conversations. Probably because the news has just flowed out, many people are now secretly discussing this matter!

　　 Just then, Ernie's father walked in through the side door. By his side, there was still a charming woman who was Ernie's mother.

　　 "Everyone has been waiting for a long time. I think everyone is looking forward to the evening dance, but there is no need to worry." Ernie's father said loudly, "At least, we have to fill our stomachs first?"

　　 was talking, and he waved his wand.

　　 Suddenly, the large plate on the long table in the middle was immediately filled with various foods in small piles; the wine in oak barrels seemed to be free, and lined up on the wine racks by the wall. .

　　 Around the small dining table, a large number of goblet glasses appeared out of thin air, and pure golden champagne was poured inside, exuding a very attractive fruity aroma.

　　 "Let’s have a drink first!" Ernie’s father raised his glass and said loudly, "Merry Christmas!"

　　Maca took a glass of apple juice from the long table and raised it symbolically.

　　 "Don't you drink?" Ernie curiously asked.

　　 "At least not today." Maca shook his head and replied.

　　 When everyone started to move around and went to the long table to pick up a meal, this Christmas banquet was officially started.

　　 But no one expected that there are still a few guests who are belatedly at this moment.

　　 The door of the restaurant was pushed open, and several men in black wizard robes, Shi Shiran, walked in.

　　 "...Avery."

　　 The guests whispered, and the other party seemed to be a little unkind.

　　 "Merry Christmas, McMillan." The man walking in the front chuckled lightly.

　　 It was a black-haired middle-aged man with meticulously combed hair. The wizard robe on his body looked like a good workmanship. It can be seen from his behavior that a certain mentality of superiority has penetrated into his bones.

　　 "I don't remember asking you." Ernie's father frowned.

　　 "I'm one of the 28 races, why bother to be like an outsider?" The other party brushed the non-existent dust on his shoulders, and said casually.

　　 "In front of Weasley's house, I didn't see you say that." Ernie's father glanced at him and sneered.

　　 The other party was obviously choked by these words, and the calm smile on his face also stiffened.

　　 It seems that even though he always looks approachable on weekdays, he is still a member of the pure-blood family after all. In terms of momentum, there is nothing wrong with the other party.

　　Ernie’s father knew that the interests of the pure-blood family were entangled and entangled. Seeing that he had already won by one point at this moment, he immediately accepted it.

　　 "Since you are here, take a seat, Avery."

　　 The other party gave a cold snort and chose a seat by the door.

　　 Several people who followed him stood behind him, and only a gloomy little wizard sat with him.

　　 "Lev, stop sitting... Go and say hello to others!"

　　 The little wizard nodded slightly, then stood up again. He looked around, and walked straight to Ernie, obviously he was prepared.

　　 "Are you Ernie McMillan?" Lev squinted at Ernie, coldly.

　　 "Yes, what's the matter?" Ernie glanced at his father habitually, only to find that his father just blinked at him.

　　Hello, dad! What do you mean? Did any sand get into your eyes?

　　"How is life at Hogwarts? Have fun?"

　　 "Do you think it's a Muggle playground!" Ernie exclaimed.

　　 Lev glanced at him contemptuously, and said indifferently: "Muggle? Playground? Are your McMillans ready?"

　　 "What are you going to prepare?" Ernie said grumpily.

　　"Become another traitor in the 28th clan," Lev showed a weird smile, "Same as Weasley's."

　　 Ernie was so angry that he could hardly speak. It took him a while before he replied: "We are different from you! Self-righteous guys!"

　　 "Is this Hogwarts education?" Lev curled his lips.

　　 He randomly glanced at Ernie's side, looked at Hanna, Layla, and Maca, and then he fixed his gaze on Maca.

　　 "Let me see, this friend of yours may know better than you, how to be a nobleman." Lev looked at the flat ironed dress on Maca and said casually.

　　 In fact, he just casually found an excuse to continue to belittle Ernie, and he has no interest in Maca himself at all. But he didn't expect that this sentence seemed to hit Ernie's heart by chance.

　　 "Huh! Who do you think you are comparing to me?" Ernie lifted his chin, with a trace of pride on his face, "He is an elite student in our school, as well as my roommate and my good friend. !"

　　 "Oh?" Lev looked at Maca a few more times, "Elite? What kind of elite?"

　　 "Of course it's all aspects!"

　　 In Ernie's mind, Maca is almost almighty-he always takes pride in living in the same dormitory with Maca.

　　Klev chuckled as if he had heard a joke.

　　 "All aspects?" Lev said with a grin, "I didn't expect Hogwarts to teach you how to tell jokes...Hahaha..."

　　 He turned his head suddenly and looked at Layla who was watching him and Ernie talking with curiosity.

　　"Do you also tell jokes?"

　　 saw Maca on the side, and immediately raised his eyebrows.

　　 Lev and Ernie, who appeared here inexplicably, did not intend to interrupt, but once the little girl Layla Shafik was also involved, he would just be able to make good use of this opportunity.

　　 Just when he was talking and laughing with the three of them in the backyard, he learned the identity of this little girl from Ernie—this is a member of the Shafik family.

　　 And the Shafik family is not really eye-catching, because this family has implemented the concept of "low-key operation" from beginning to end. They are all basic industries in the magic world.

　　 And one of the most prominent and important industries of the Shafik family is the production and supply of various magical raw materials.

　　If you talk about power, this family can only be regarded as medium; but when it comes to wealth, the hidden profits are really hard to tell.

　　 This is a golden thigh buried in the soil!

　　 "...I don't know how to tell jokes~IndoMTL.com~ But my mother always tells me, ‘You’re a big joke!’" Layla replied with a grin.

　　 "Hahahaha—" Lev was about to be amused by this little girl and lost his manners. He grinned and said with a grin, "It's really good, it seems Hogwarts--"

　　 "Oh, but I didn't study at Hogwarts..." Layla suddenly added.

　　Lev gave her a surprised look and said: "Then where do you go to school?"

　　 "At home!" Layla blinked and said, "My mother teaches me every day."

　　 Lev shook his head and said, “That’s really a shame. Hogwarts is missing an'excellent' student! Maybe if you go to Hogwarts to go to school, Hogwarts will There can be one more elite who develops'all aspects'."

　　 "Hey, McLagan, he is complimenting me for my excellence!" Layla turned her head and said happily.

　　Maca glanced at Layla, then at Lev, and then sighed.

　　 "Mr. Avery, I think--" Maca looked at Lev calmly, "Does Durmstrang teach you how to bully a little girl?"

　　 Leila blinked her big eyes, turned her head and asked Ernie in a low voice, "Is that boy bullying me just now?"

　　 "He's calling you stupid!" Ernie patted her on the head, angrily.

　　 "Did I bully her?" Lev said smoothly, "Which word bullied her?"

　　 "Don't use this naive literary trick to pretend, it will only make you insult your own family name." Maca squeezed a smile at him.

　　 He remembers Layla saying that this kind of smile makes people look gloomy--not to mention, the current state of affairs may be pretty good when talking to the enemy!
