39. Embarrassing Emerging Wizarding Family

In the Ravenclaw common room, Scott and his two roommates were still standing by the window.

"Do you think Dupin is really going to get caught in Azkaban?" Milton asked Scott and Eddie.

"No, Milton." Scott laughed, "Didn't Brown say that since there was no substantial damage, Miss Dupin would be able to escape the Azkaban trip with enough gold Galleons. ."

Eddie continued: "Obviously, Dupin's family won't let her actually be taken to Azkaban, and they should have that ability too."

"Du Ping's surname is not a pure-blood family, right?" Milton asked.

Scott also looked at Eddie.

Eddie, who never disappoints in this regard, really knew the answer, and he answered fluently: "Of course not, their family is a new wizard family, but they are trying to get closer to those pure blood families."

"A new wizard family that is closer to the pure-blood family?" Scott said this sentence with some playfulness.

He thought this was absurd. "The so-called new wizarding families are probably Muggle or half-blooded wizards in the previous generations. I don't think those stubborn pure-blood families will accept them easily."

"You're right, Scott." Eddie laughed too, "but as far as I know, some of these so-called emerging wizard families are like this. They all dream of being with pure-blood wizards. marriage."

"They think this is..." When he said this, he used his hands to draw double quotation marks, "The way to 'improve the blood'."

When he talked about this topic, he couldn't help showing a look of contempt on his face.

Scott only found it funny, "I don't think any pure-blood family would be willing to marry them."

He really didn't expect such a group of wizards to exist in the magical world with opposite blood.

Seems like he doesn't know enough about the wizarding world, Scott thought.But Eddie is also a talent, and he can inquire about more than gossip.

At this time, Milton, who had been silent just now, suddenly said, "All this time, these new families have been marrying the same families."

His tone was a little stiff.

"They look down on new Muggles or half-blood wizards now, just as they look down on pure-bloods."

The expression on Milton's face changed, revealing [Milton's contempt].

"After all, they think that after generations of wizards and wizards, their family members can be called 'true pure blood' as well. But at the end of the day, they are just a bunch of poor people who are not accepted."

Scott and Eddie didn't expect to hear such blunt sarcasm from Milton's mouth.

Although [Milton's contempt] was even called a kind of magic by Roger because it was too sharp, the sarcasm in Milton's words was indeed rare.

They could see that something was wrong with Milton.

This may have something to do with his family, so Scott and Eddie tacitly did not ask.

But Milton, an emotionally sensitive boy, smiled at Scott and Eddie, and said, "My dad was born into this family because he was married to my mom, a Muggle woman, So my grandfather didn't like our family very much."

Hearing this, Scott began to worry that Milton was in tears again.

But Milton seemed used to it, and was surprisingly strong.

He even joked, "Fortunately, such a family can't even write a family tree on a palm-length parchment, so we don't have to worry about being kicked out of the house."

Still, such a topic was embarrassing, and Scott and Eddie didn't know what to say to comfort him for a moment.

Fortunately, the arrival of a silver bird freed Scott from the embarrassment.

"It's Professor Flitwick's Patronus Charm!" Milton whispered.

It was a silver hummingbird, as long as Scott's finger, and it was Professor Flitwick's voice.

"Sorry, Scott. Looks like you're coming to my office as well, and it seems you're involved."

After saying this, the hummingbird summoned by the Patronus Charm immediately dissipated.

As expected.

Scott smiled slightly.

"what happened?"

"Why did the professor let you go?"

At this time, both Milton and Eddie looked at him curiously.

"I don't know either." Scott shook his head, "but I think I'll get the answer soon, so see you later."

He turned and left the common room.

Professor Flitwick's office is located on the eighth floor of the castle's main building, not far from Ravenclaw Tower.But to take the regular route, Scott would need to climb down the tower first, then climb the stairs from the main building up the eighth floor.

Fortunately, there is a secret passage in the tower that only Ravenclaw students know.

Standing in front of a portrait of a knight on the wall opposite the common room, Scott took out his wand and clicked on the painting. "Superhuman intelligence is the greatest wealth of mankind."

"Hey! Don't put the wand on me!" The knight in the portrait glared at him and turned away from the wand.

At this time, Professor Flitwick's voice came from the portrait, "It's Scott? Come here."

A wooden door appeared on the stone wall behind the portrait, and Scott raised his hand to open the door and walked into the secret passage.

That's right, this secret passage needs the approval of Professor Flitwick to open it, so Ravenclaw students usually have to climb stairs to enter and exit the tower.

"Hey! Boy! Where's your hand touching!"

The knight in the portrait began to complain again, but Scott ignored him and closed the door, shutting out his complaints.

He walked through the secret passage and pushed open the same wooden door on the other side. What appeared in front of him was the interior of Professor Flitwick's office.

"professor."

Scott walked out of the secret passage and came to Professor Flitwick's desk.

"Scott, you're here." Professor Flitwick pointed to the side, "Come here, sit down here."

Scott thanked him and sat down on the one-seater sofa.

"Professor, you said this incident is related to me, what do you mean?" he asked curiously.

At this time, the three people who had come to the office with Professor Flitwick before were all there.Roger sat next to him, while Lisa Dupin and Jacob Kent sat on the opposite sofa.

"Oh, Scott, that statement came from Mr. Kent's mouth." Professor Flitwick turned to Jacob.

"Yes... yes." Jacob gave Scott a cowardly look, and said in a trembling voice, "Miss Travers wanted to take revenge on both Mr. Trollope and Mr. Davis, but Miss Rolle, who was in charge of revenge on Mr Trollope, had an accident."

Scott looked at Jacob with a smile and raised his eyebrows slightly.

Is this... already "confessed"?

"Vengeance?" he asked feigning doubt. "I don't remember when we offended that Miss Travers."
