Chapter 198 Cypher Skye
A huge manor, situated beside a small river.There are green hills nearby.
The bright sunlight fell on the desk in the study, and also cast a golden halo on the woman behind the desk.
"Can't get in touch?"
The woman's voice was low and gentle.Gives a mature but not seductive feeling.Short light blonde hair and sharp facial features.The capable shape gives her a neutral aesthetic.
On the other side of the desk, a wizard knelt in front of her and said heavily, "We have indeed lost contact. We don't know how the two poachers are doing now."
The woman's complexion did not change.It seems that such a situation has long been expected.
"Two wastes... But it's not a big problem, let our partners rest assured. The poison is specially made by our family, and it has been used for so many years without any problems."
When talking about the effect of drugs, the confidence in the woman's words does not seem to be fake.
The subordinates below nodded in response, and then continued: "Lord Tripkad has sent another message to urge you. Let's hurry up and get together to discuss how to welcome Lord Gunter."
"Cut——, the old man is full of thoughts on how to compare with those guys in ostentation and etiquette. It seems that his family's background can really be compared with that group of old money..."
The woman's tone was full of disdain.Only that old guy, brainwashed by the preaching of honor, would care so much about such things.
If you have time to discuss such a bad thing, it is better to think about how to make some money.
If that little fellow named Luke Gaunt was going to bring in enough interest, let alone a welcome dinner.It's okay to let her go to bed to welcome that little guy.
But from the current point of view, although the little guy has money, it seems that the money has not yet formed any industry.So simple money is really meaningless.
Hearing his master's lack of interest, the subordinates below said naturally: "But I think Mr. Safir, you'd better go to this banquet."
"After all, the Skye family can't let themselves appear too out of group."
After listening to his subordinates, Safir Skye pondered for a moment, then nodded.
"Then tell that old fellow Tripcard, I'll be there at the appointed time. Tell him not to urge him all day long."
The subordinate nodded with a smile, got up, and was about to leave the room to deal with things.
"How many families have confirmed that they are going to welcome that little guy?"
"People from the top ten families have confirmed that they will all be present. Most of the remaining small families have no room for rejection."
Safir Skye sat on his gorgeous chair and sneered again.
"It's really a big show. Doesn't Tripcard think that making such a big show to welcome others is a sign of his own lack of confidence? The old man has been around for so many years, just because he is old and has no brains Well."
After hearing this, the subordinate obviously wanted to say something more, but Safir Skye waved his hand impatiently.
"Enough is enough. I've heard enough of other people's nagging today. Get lost."
"Yes, my lord."
The subordinate glanced at Safir Skye, who had begun to close his eyes and meditate, said helplessly, and then silently exited the room.
After the sound of the door being closed.The calm expression on Safir Skye's face suddenly relaxed.
She kicked off the simple and alluring high heels on her feet without caring about her image.The feet wrapped in black silk just rested on the table.The solemn and elegant chair just now turned into a rocking chair almost instantly.There was a sly smile on her already beautiful face.
"Tripcard only thinks about those families that have overwhelmed the United Kingdom and have declined a lot. The other families have only been so old for so many years, and they have already begun to hold back."
"I, and only I, are still thinking about learning from our ancestors, exploring unknown territories, and grabbing more wealth!"
Safir Skye stretched out on the recliner, his snow-white shirt was supported by two peaks, and his insteps were straightened, outlining a heart-stirring curve.
She is not very old this year, only in her 20s.It is the age of youth and beauty.
Her hand fumbled in the shelf shelf that was just within reach, and then pulled out a newspaper.
The name of the newspaper is written in the upper left corner of the newspaper.
The Daily Prophet
And in the center of the layout is a picture.In the picture, Luke Gunter was wearing a special robe and got off the train. He seemed to see the camera, but he didn't care, and even gave a bright smile politely.
He's still young, but this kid's handsomeness and extravagance can already be seen.Although it may change when you grow up.But the current appearance is just the most suitable for some people who have developed a habit.
What's more, in addition to that face and demeanor, Safir Skye also noticed the robe on Luke Gunter.Although it looks classic and elegant.But someone who is extremely familiar with Muggle society like Safir Skye can still easily see the unique Muggle aesthetics contained in this dress.
Obviously, this little guy seems to be a representative of the old money, but in fact, he should not be like the group of British nobles who stand still.
But just like himself, he has a deep connection with the Muggle world, and understands his situation very well, although he has a little bit of aesthetic bias.But not too noticeable.
"What a... smart kid."
A doting smile appeared on Safir Skye's face.
"Why don't I welcome you? But I can't be seen. There are some things I can do. But I can't take the initiative to do it!"
"Did that woman agree?" Tripcard was obviously relieved, and the expression on his face became more carefree.
"In this case, we don't need to take Mr. Gaunt with us about some things."
Tripcard had a meaningful smile on his face.
The subordinate standing behind him frowned, and finally couldn't hold back a frown.
"Oh, what's the matter? Have something to say."
Tripcard looked at his subordinates and said with a smile in a good mood.
The subordinate hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Let Chief Skye go to meet Chief Gunter, will Chief Skye feel that his sacrifice is a bit big?"
He didn't think there was anything wrong with letting Safir Skye attend the banquet.But Lord Tripkad obviously has other ideas now.In this way, will it offend Safir Skye?
You know, the current Skye family, among the top ten families, has climbed from the bottom to the upper class.
Tripcard laughed out loud after hearing what his men said.
"I knew all of you little ones would be addicted to Sapphire Skye after meeting her."
Tripcard's words made the young subordinate behind him rarely express his emotions.He blushed and bowed his head apologetically.
"I don't mean to blame you. I understand your thoughts very well."
There was a look of eagerness in Tripcard's own eyes.But after all, it was suppressed by the precipitation brought by age.
"Of course I won't force Lord Skye." Tripkad Zhizhu said with his hands in his hands, "but don't think too highly of the bottom line of the Skye family."
"The Gaunt family is such a big piece of fat. Isn't that money what she desires most? If she can conquer this child, then all that money will be hers. How could she let this go?" chance?"
"Actually, with so many invitations, I already expected that she would agree!"
The men's heads were lowered.
When people rejected your invitation six times just now, your expression was not like this.
Of course, is Tripcard right?There must be.
Luke Gunter was only a well-known wealthy son-in-law in the UK at first.Later, he gradually became a well-known rich man in Europe.Later, he became the famous golden tortoise son-in-law in the whole world.
After all, a handsome young man with rich family background and strong abilities can naturally attract the attention of countless people.
Actually...
"Do you think the Skye family will be the only ones who came that night? No, no, no..."
"I plan to let Yin Fanna come to the party that day. I also know that there will be other people participating in this party."
His face was full of confidence, but what he said made the subordinates behind him slander endlessly.
No... is this guy surnamed Gunter so powerful?Let his master actually care so much.
Thinking about it this way... those things that I once dreamed of... can be realized so easily with this boy?
………………
"Luke, what do you think?"
Facing Meade's invitation, Dumbledore thought for a moment, but did not express his opinion immediately, but looked at Luke beside him.
Luke squeezed his chin and looked at Meade with a embarrassed expression.
"Frankly, Mr. Meade. I don't want to get involved in it. I'll tell you the truth. I've had enough troubles this holiday. Even going to America this time was a trouble in itself. .”
"The time on the boat can be said to be one of the few real vacations I have. I was still a child, and I really didn't want to give up my vacation for some things."
Luke was sincere and serious when he said this.
Meade also frowned upon hearing this, lost in thought.
And Luke's side is not over yet, he continued: "And I also analyzed it for you just now. This matter seems to be fine. In fact, it is your master... let's call it a girl."
Luke had already guessed that it couldn't be a simple friend's girl.
"This note doesn't matter whether you find someone or not. She can't trust you anymore. Even if you go there alone, the other party might avoid you. Let alone bringing two strange wizards with you?"
"I don't know what you guys went through, and what your attitude towards girls is, I don't care."
Luke looked serious: "I just want to enjoy my vacation, that's all."
When Luke said this, it was with real emotion.To be honest, after he finished inducing that white hair and got the information, he had a showdown with Mead.Mead basically said everything except that the girl was killed and she was the person he served.Of course, the replacement of part of the information does not cause too much information error.
After Luke saw the note, he put the whole thing together.
The girl left this note and didn't tell the truth. She was worried about some people. She acted as if she didn't know about it, and only thought it was a good opportunity to go out for fun.It is used to imitate the hostility of the opponent.
The effect can only be said to be better than nothing.But obviously this is a smart girl.
"The water behind you is really deep."
Dumbledore looked at Luke's emotional expression and said nothing.Turning his head, he saw Meade's eyes begging for help, but he poured a basin of cold water on Meade's head again.
"Sorry, Meade, Luke is my student. Just like you are responsible to that girl. I am also responsible to my student. Your girl is facing a turbulent situation. My student must It is also a very dangerous reality.”
Meade opened his mouth.But seeing the faces of the two people, after all, he sighed.
"And if we join your search team directly, who will we listen to?" Luke looked at Mead slightly disappointed.
"In short, let's go back to the United States. I also have a little influence in the United States. I can help you find it. This, I promise, I will not give up."
Meade ultimately said nothing, just left a conch as a prop for connection, and walked away.
After sending Mead off, two people, one old and one young, walked to the restaurant.
It didn't take long for the bodies of Huangmao and Baimao to be found.
"You are very straightforward."
When Dumbledore saw Luke kill for the first time, he was quite emotional.
"Although the Death Curse is dangerous, you will die if you hit it. But you know, he can be regarded as benevolent..."
Luke said frankly.
Among other things, he has many spells that can kill people.The Killing Curse was probably the least painful of them all.
As for Luke's Death Curse... Dumbledore was not surprised at all.In fact, almost everyone knows the death curse.The spell itself is not a difficult spell.Students can learn too.Its power depends on the amount of mana, the quality of mana, and the killing intent.Students often fall short in both magic and emotions.Killing intent and their life-slaying curse can't kill them at all.
"Black magic is very powerful in alienating the caster. You have to pay attention."
Dumbledore looked at Luke as he said this.He could see it just now.Although Luke's killing intent was strong, it was a bit too abrupt.This also verified some of his guesses in another aspect.
However, Luke did not use his ability to refute this sentence.Instead, he nodded with a deep heart.
"Yes, yes, professor, you are so right!"
Dumbledore: …
This little bastard's attitude is so perfunctory...
