Harry Potter’s Book of Sin Chapter 2646: Fragrance
"Miss Granger, seeing the Rebel Alliance re-active on the front lines of the fight against disaster, leading so many heroic men to fight for the survival of mankind. As the person who helped Miss to found it It's an honor to be one of them."
In Hermione's makeshift office, which is simply furnished, the old butler is taking his guest seat calmly.
Well, it's just a solitary back chair.
In fact, even Hermione only had an extra ordinary desk for office use - it was filled with various documents at the moment, obviously not suitable for entertaining guests.
However, even in such a rudimentary environment, the old butler's temperament that has already penetrated into his bones is still visible to the naked eye. Whenever he was there, he always made people feel extraordinarily comfortable, and even the unease and anxiety seemed to be ironed out.
"Don't say that," Hermione said, looking at the other party, "Mr. Butler is not as simple as helping. If there was no Mr. in charge, Mrs. Maxim and I would not be able to make it stand firm. .Mr. was one of the founders, which is something almost everyone in the league knows today."
"Oh, I don't remember that I have done such a great thing!" The old butler said with a smile, "What's more, the Rebel Alliance, which has been reactivated now, is far from the one used only for testing. The temporary organization of the attitudes of all parties has nothing to do with me..."
The old gentleman said this, seeing that Hermione seemed to want to correct again, so he waved at her.
"Don't get caught up in this little thing," he said, "and I'm not trying to get away from it. Just like this initiative to counterattack that Miss Granger proposed and led, I , and the owner of the house behind me, they all agree very much... Otherwise, I would not have appeared in front of the lady today."
Hermione's eyes lit up when she heard the words.
"Mr. Butler, you mean—"
"Yes," the old butler smiled and nodded lightly, "Although Mr. Patriarch did not come, my visit here already represents the attitude of Mr. Patriarch-Miss Granger must also know that, In fact, I also just separated from my lady not long ago and returned home in a hurry. I originally went to listen to the owner's views on the current situation. Speaking of which, the owner of the family commented very much on your previous decision, Miss Granger. Gao. In particular, the achievement of the friendship of those intelligent living corpses is indeed a far-sighted stroke."
"Oh, I just..." Hermione couldn't help laughing, "I just think that since they have wisdom and ego, and the same feelings as us, they should not be enemies anymore. At that time, Rebes and the others also happened to express their desire to live in peace with us humans... This can only be said, it naturally became like this? At least I didn't feel that I had too much effort. deliberately facilitated this."
Although she said so, she actually knew in her heart that being friends with those intelligent living corpses headed by Rebes was absolutely beneficial and not harmful.
Let's not talk about forward-looking or something. After all, who knows what will happen in the future? But even if she just looked at the front, how much help did she get after the help of those high-level living corpses? This is almost obvious.
There are some things, however, that at least Hermione doesn't want to be so snobbish about. If everything is viewed in the eyes of profit seeking, even the purest friendship seems to change its flavor all at once.
"Oh, it's me being abrupt, Miss Granger." The old butler, who has been a housekeeper for decades, immediately sensed Hermione's thoughts, "But please don't worry too much. Actually, Most of the time, there is no conflict between whether to do it or not. Just like this, it is only after the lady does it that it happens to be beneficial - this does not prove that, 'Give a rose, Therosesiheinmine'?"
"Er... um." Hermione thought for a moment, then nodded.
On the other side, after comforting Hermione, the old butler continued: "Then, I think we should use this enthusiasm to talk about business!"
"...is it about the US side?"
Hermione's expression brightened, and she said that the point was finally coming.
However, the next moment, the old housekeeper shook his head gently and said to her:
"Well, actually, what the miss is thinking about, I know - after all, Mr. Blake went to see the head of the house, and that's what he did! But I have to say, the Stewart family is now It's not really that important. At least, it's not as bad as the lady imagined... This is the original words of the head of the family."
"Isn't it important?" Hermione was shocked when she heard this~IndoMTL.com~, "If what John Stewart said is true, it means that there will always be people behind us. The danger of being stabbed! And according to my guess, what he said is very likely to be true!"
"Yeah!" The old butler nodded, "It is true. The Stewart family has gone the wrong way, as it was a long time ago... But, miss, according to your understanding of the existence of 'living corpses' , do you think the Stewart family... can they really easily convert humans into living corpses in batches?"
"This..."
"Perhaps they did have some results," the old butler continued, "by virtue of the long-ago study of the 'Silent One', which has many similarities, and the silence for so long after the disaster , the Stewart family must have something in their hands. But I don't believe that they can do anything big - neither does the owner. You know, it was Haierbo who had spent a lot of time trying to get it done with demon summoning. The resulting product, the Stewart family wants to make artificially through other methods? Is it that simple?"
Speaking of this, Hermione was still silent, but saw the old butler suddenly change the subject again.
"Certainly," he frowned, "more importantly, the adversary facing us today is not something that a mere Stewart family can't match." Witch Kern ', isn't it? In fact, after learning the name from Mr. Blake, the owner of the house looked through the collection of books in my Blois family library and found some...we didn't feel very good The contents of the record...I heard that Miss is planning to go to Hogwarts Castle? I think after hearing this clue, Miss would better think about it again..."
