Chapter 2081 The Most Reliable Witness
"Beauxbatons is preparing to close the school? Is it true?"
Upon hearing the news, Blois couldn't help but frowned again.
Because Neville suddenly mentioned the presence of a living corpse in Beauxbatons earlier, Mr. Blois almost left in a hurry and returned to France. Fortunately, Bill, who left a message to Neville's patron saint, was quite thoughtful. Among the many new pieces of information, he deliberately added the news that Willy and the old butler had arrived in the refuge area.
After knowing that nothing happened to his precious daughter, Mr. Blois calmed down a little.
However, when Neville then spoke about the closure of Beauxbatons, Bulova's expression immediately changed again.
"Since Bill said it, it shouldn't be wrong, but..." Neville said, but he couldn't help asking, "What's the matter with the 'closed school'? Beauxbaton finally had to enter the state of indefinite suspension Yet?"
Due to the threat of the disaster, many large and small schools in Western Europe have basically stopped teaching activities for the safety of teachers and students.
However, if there are schools that are closed, there will naturally be schools that are still trying to persevere-under the circumstances that this disaster is likely to turn into an endless struggle, those little wizards who have not yet grown up, Perhaps it is the hope of victory in the future struggle.
Because of this, Madam Maxim has been persisting.
She not only persuaded most of the professors to stay and continue teaching, but also contacted the French Ministry of Magic to borrow manpower to enhance the protection of the campus, and even founded the Resistance Alliance with Hermione, intending to attract more forces to become her Beauxbatons' help.
Unfortunately, it turned out that she failed.
The reason for its failure was not disaster, let alone laziness, but human nature.
The swaying of most small and medium-sized forces, Mr. Bulova's selfishness, and her own inferiority complex hidden under the strength, these days, many factors have caused her to suffer constant setbacks. And the insidious scheme of the head of the German Brandt family finally became the last straw that crushed the persistence in her heart.
"Closing the school...? At this time of year, it's really not a good choice."
Blois frowned and shook his head slightly. Then he gave a rough account of Beauxbaton's past to the other people present, and finally said:
"Forget it... In short, Potter, bring the first batch of wizards here as soon as possible! This is definitely not wrong.
As for more manpower... After the first batch arrives here, I will go back and gather them for you. "
"Isn't it just to take the opportunity to go back and visit my daughter!" Safina pouted at the side, seeing Bulova turned his head and stared at her, she immediately looked at each other without hesitation, "What am I doing? I said something wrong Is it? Well, I still want to visit Ursula...Wait, according to what you said just now, isn't Ursula going to be trapped in Beauxbatons?"
"Yes," Blois spread his hands, "that's why I said that closing the school may not be a good idea—if the enemy can really break through, the walls that were originally used to defend against intruders will be closed immediately." It will turn into a cage that traps itself in turn. As for the ancient black wizards of the level of Hyerbon...it's hard to say."
"I want to go back!"
In a blink of an eye, Mr. Blois became Safina in the rush to go to France. But until now, Neville hasn't finished all the news that he wants to say!
To be honest, a lot of things have become quite disturbing this time, both in the UK and outside.
"Safina, you can't go back, everyone still needs you!" Suddenly, Luna who was sitting not far away said, "So... Ursula's words, leave it to me!"
...
When a friend at the Burrow talked about Maxim, the principal Beauxbaton who was being talked about was in a small French town far away from the school.
Since the severity of the disaster has long been beyond concealment, the Muggle people naturally also learned of some of the embellishments in some official announcements.
But reality is reality after all, even if the wizarding world exposed by this disaster is as bizarre as it needs to be for ordinary Muggles. However, when more and more people have more or less witnessed the undisguised activities of wizards in the Muggle world, it is obvious that they can't believe it.
But it has to be said that disasters are disasters after all, and in the face of increasingly serious disasters, everyone began to take refuge one after another. In a small town like this, even if the actual action will be a little later, at least there are very few passers-by walking around in the streets and alleys recently.
As a result, it has become very difficult for Maxim to get some food to satisfy his hunger through relatively normal means in the past two days-after all, magic spells cannot change real ingredients.
However, a small town like this where everyone stays behind closed doors seems to be a good place for her who is trying to hide here.
After looking left and right out of the window a few times, Maxim closed the curtains again, and then turned his gaze back to the figure on the bed.
It can be seen that lying on the bed right now is a young girl who is tied up with magic chains. Although that ferocious and distorted face is really frightening, it is indeed just a young girl.
Hmm, or... a "living corpse".
After luring him away that day, after a series of bitter battles, Maxim finally defeated the opponent with his strong physique and proficient magic skills, and barely restrained him.
Although she herself paid a big price.
However, even if it is finally under control now, what should we do next... To be honest, Maxim really has no idea this time.
The Brandt family's conspiracy and calculations are actually not that thorough. If Maxim is really determined to solve this matter, there are many ways to do it. But the great thing about Patriarch Brandt is that he may have already spotted Maxim's biggest weakness—that is, the safety of Beauxbaton's teachers and students.
The Brandt family can send one living corpse to Beauxbaton today, and the second one tomorrow; if he can send the living corpse to Maxim today, who knows which corner he can send tomorrow?
Threats that can be seen are terrifying, but hidden dangers that can be seen but cannot be touched, and that may erupt at any time, are often the most troublesome.
And at that time, just because Maxim thought of this, she finally decided to let the professor start preparing to start the school closure plan.
As for why she is hiding here now... It's very simple, in order to prove her innocence and confirm the conspiracy of the head of the Brandt family, she needs the most reliable witness!
