Chapter 510 It’s Over

These words shocked Henry into a cold sweat.

Ida stayed up most of the night, running from the luxurious manor in Versailles to a small apartment in Paris. Is it just to communicate with the brother and sister?

Don't be ridiculous, even if Ada really thinks this, Henry won't believe it.

Moreover, Henry knew exactly why Ada came, which was why he went out to get drunk tonight.

Henry didn't answer, and there was a small drum in his heart that kept beating. He stood up and walked to the small bar in the apartment, wanting to refill himself with a glass of whiskey.

Ada didn't say anything, she just watched Henry wandering over, thinking about what she should do to Henry.

Henry drank a lot tonight. When people are drunk, their hands and feet inevitably become uncoordinated. When he was pouring wine from the bottle, he poured half of it and spilled half of it. Henry gave up, put the bottle back on the bar, and stopped pouring wine stubbornly.

He lowered his head and said, "When did you know? Did you discover it yourself, or did your great-aunt tell you?"

Hearing Henry's words, Ada also thought of Vida's hesitation before setting off. It turned out that her grandmother had discovered this a long time ago, but she never said it.

"I discovered it myself," Ada said. "While in the catacombs, Alan Rozier mentioned the blood of unicorns."

Henry laughed lowly, a little bitterly, and said: "Judging from my aunt's condition today, there is nothing wrong with her body. The unicorn's blood is naturally part of the trap. You did it in order to make people believe that she was terminally ill. A trap set."

"Of course she didn't drink the unicorn's blood. Although I am cruel, but..." Ada said, "It would be better to die happily if you are still alive."

Henry raised his head, looked at Ada, and asked, "What does this mean? Is she really sick?"

Vader was indeed ill, and his hatred was serious, and he almost allowed Alan and others to get their wish. But Ada happened to have a life-saving gem in her hand. With this gem, Vader was able to recover.

After discussing with the recovered Vida, the current plan of suspended animation was devised.

While Vida was pretending to be sick, everything Ada did was to make her look more serious, including the words she said and the glass of unicorn blood she deliberately spilled for Thierry.

"You even included my grandfather. With him by his side, Alan and the others will not have any more suspicions." Henry said, "This way, it will be easier to implement your plan."

Ada shook her head and said, "No, this is just for Thierry and you to see."

Hearing this, Henry fell silent again. Rather than making it for their grandparents and grandchildren, it was better to make it for him alone, because everyone knew that Thierry would never betray Vidal.

Henry raised the bottle and took two sips. The stimulating taste made him regain some sense. He asked: "Does this mean that only five people know about the cup of unicorn blood?"

"No, it's four people," Ada said. "Grandma doesn't know about this. She won't let me do this."

What only four people knew, three of them would not reveal, but Alan Rozier knew, and it was obvious what the problem was. Weaving such a big bag and putting everyone in it, the eyes of outsiders left in the manor can naturally only see what Ada wants them to see.

"Henry, can you tell me why?" Ada asked, "I really don't see what's in it for you."

"It's no good, I just want to live." Henry picked up the bottle and leaned his body against the wall, "I just want to live."

Ada was confused by what she said, she really couldn't understand Henry's thoughts. How could Henry survive by cooperating with Vida and himself? Revealing the secrets in Rose Manor was the real way to death.

"It's hard to understand, isn't it?" Henry continued, "I speak slowly and you listen slowly."

Henry took a sip, held the small bar with both hands, and said slowly: "It started when my great-aunt got your news. At that time, someone told Alan and his son about your information, and that person was me."

"Why?" Ada asked doubtfully, "I can't think of a reason for you to do this, and it won't do you any good."

Henry said: "There is really no benefit, and I am not doing this for the benefit. The Rozier family is like a pool of stinky stagnant water, only blood-sucking bugs lying on the merits of their ancestors, greedy and stupid. Yours When we return, instead of injecting new vitality into this stinking stagnant water, we throw a huge boulder into the center of the pool! What will happen?"

"The water in the pool is splashing everywhere and it is no longer calm." Ada continued.

"Yes, your return will bring great chaos to Rozier, and the whole family will be reshuffled." Henry continued, "Because your identity is too special, you are Vida Rozier's granddaughter!"

If Vader didn't have that much energy, Ada would most likely be another Nymphadora Tonks, and the two sides wouldn't interfere with each other. But Vida has the ability to reshuffle the family, and since Ada is a mixed-blood wizard, conflict will inevitably break out between the two parties.

The facts also proved what Henry thought. From the moment Ada returned to Rozier's house, the controversy surrounding her has not stopped, and a serious bloodshed occurred today.

Ada thought of the famous sophistry question. Where the railroad splits, there are warning signs on one side of the track because trains will pass that way, but there are no warning signs on the abandoned track on the other side.

Now the train is coming, and there are many Roziers standing on the track that the train is about to pass. There is only a lonely strange child on the abandoned track. You can turn the switch, and there are stupid compatriots on one side and strangers on the other. How do you choose?

Between strangers and family members, Henry Rozier chose his family members, even though they were hopelessly stupid.

Henry said: "Besides that, I don't want to be the leader of Rozier, not at all. I don't want to follow the path arranged by others. I have my own ideas and my own wishes in life."

"Such as marrying a Muggle-born witch?" Ada asked, "Isn't this also a lie to me?"

"That's not true." Henry said bitterly, "But if I was supported by my great-aunt to the position of being at the helm, would I still be able to do this? Think about what happened to your father."

Even if Vader agrees with Henry, the rest of the tribe will not agree. This once again became a choice between the tribe and the individual, except this time the "individual" became Henry himself.

"What about this time," Ada asked, "just because I lost the support of Vader Rozier, do you think I will be completely defeated?"

Henry was silent for a while and then said: "The fact that you are sitting here today proves that I made the right choice in revealing this information to Alan and his son. If you want to blame me, blame me for choosing the wrong opponent and the wrong partner. You are too smart. And Alan and his son are too useless."

"You thought I would kill you, so you took the initiative and encouraged Alan and his son to eradicate me first." Ada said, and she roughly understood.

In Henry's opinion, Ada is the dangerous one. As long as Ada dies in the underground tomb, even if Alan and his son will target Henry next, he will have a way to deal with it.

Facing Alan and his son, there is always a better chance of winning than facing Ada.

"Stupid choice, Henry." Ada said, "You did all this on the premise that I would kill you, and why are you so sure that I will kill you?"

"Do you still remember that you had a dog named Gallon?" Henry said with a smile. "You felt that it betrayed you, so you left it in the twins' house and ignored it, right?"

Ada nodded silently, that was indeed the case.

"It's just a dog. It didn't threaten your safety, so you abandoned it. What about me?" Henry said excitedly, "I leaked your information to Alan, allowing you to be followed and even trapped. If you are in danger, what will you do to me?"

"You are a human, Garen is just a dog." Ada said, "I can still tell the difference between a human and a dog."

Henry laughed loudly, then he pointed at Ada and said: "Ask yourself, is it important to you whether it is a human or a dog? Have you killed too few people? Your disregard for life scares me! "

Then Henry pointed out the window excitedly and continued: "Aren't those who died in the cemetery during the day today human beings? Aren't those who will be cleaned out tonight human beings? You can say that they deserve to die, because they want to harm you, don't I think so too? Are you someone who wants to harm you!"

The more he talked, the more excited he became, and Henry went crazy and swept everything on the bar to the floor. There were sounds of cups and wine bottles breaking, and the carpet was soaked with wine.

Ada sighed slowly and said, "Before I come tonight, your great-aunt asked me to spare your life."

Henry raised his head and looked at Ada, he couldn't believe it. In addition to worrying that Ada would kill him, Henry was also worried that Vader would do something to him, especially since Vader had beaten him more than once.

"Where is Daniel?" Henry asked, "Is he dead?"

Ada got up from the sofa and walked towards the door of the apartment. As she walked, she said: "Before you mentioned Daniel, I didn't know that he was involved in this. Grandma might know, but she didn't tell me anything."

Under Henry's disbelieving gaze, Ada walked to the door and put her hand on the light switch.

"You're drunk, Henry. Drunk people should have a good rest. Tomorrow is a new day and the roses will bloom again."

After saying that, the lights in the apartment went out, and the small space fell into darkness again. After the door closed, Henry sat on the ground dejectedly, sobbing softly.
