The two chatted as if no one was around. At first, Furong could still sit and listen, but as time went on, she felt more and more that something was wrong with the atmosphere.
It’s as if I have become an invisible and transparent person.
She, Furong, a half-Veela, is always the brightest one in the crowd wherever she goes. She has never thought that there would be a day when she would be ignored.
As a result, she encountered it today.
There seemed to be a magical aura around those two people, which could automatically block out everything around them. She wanted to interrupt several times, but was ignored.
"I say, can you please respect me a little!" Furong said loudly, and this time she finally got a response.
"What's wrong?" Kyle looked up.
"I was just about to ask, how is Bill doing lately?"
"When you write letters, you wish you could kill three owls in one day. Do you need to ask me how he is?" Kyle said slowly, "Besides, do you think I would not tell you for such a long time if Bill had something wrong?"
Furong took a deep breath. Her good etiquette allowed her to keep smiling at this moment, but no one knew what she was thinking in her heart.
"You guys continue... I'm going to go out for a walk."
Furong stood up, slammed the door and left angrily.
She really couldn't stay in this place for even a minute.

Chapter 814 Beauxbatons
Fleur seemed angry when she left, but she was actually quite happy...happy for Kanna.
At least Kyle's performance just now would get 80 points in her opinion. Even though she was right next to him, his eyes never left Kanna.
This is already very rare.
At least in terms of beauty, Furong could be said to be quite confident and looked down upon everyone equally.
She did have the capital, as the bloodline of the Veela was just like the Elder Wand, unreasonably strong.
Just now in the store, she did not suppress her innate charm at all, but was still ignored by Kyle.
Although she felt a little frustrated, she was mostly happy for Kanna.
Because aside from her sister, Gabrielle Delacour, Connor was kind of her best friend...even though they didn't spend a lot of time together.
Even though Fleur was very famous in France, being a well-known alumnus of Beauxbatons and a champion of the Triwizard Tournament, she actually didn't have many friends.
While her half-Veela bloodline gave her stunning beauty, it also took away her ability to make friends.
Although she had countless suitors when she was in school, almost all of those boys had their own purposes. Most of them were attracted by her beauty, while the rest were attracted by the Delacour family, or both.
The Delacour family was somewhat well-known in France, and had a very close relationship with Madame Maxime, so naturally many people wanted to make friends with them.
In addition to these, most of the girls were jealous of her rather than friendly.
The cautious and sensitive nature of her Veela bloodline allows her to more clearly perceive the malice hidden in the other person's heart.
With more experiences, she naturally lost interest in making friends, so usually, she kept to herself at school... at least until those people gathered around her.
Furong wandered aimlessly on the street for more than ten minutes. In order not to attract too much attention, she simply walked into a bookstore and read a book in the corner to pass the time.
After an unknown amount of time, she realized that the light in front of her was blocked.
"I've been looking for you for a long time. Why are you here?" Kanna stood in front of her and looked down at the cover of the book in her hand.
"Magic Journey to Moon Mountain"
"How come I didn't know you liked reading this type of book?"
"I don't like it," said Fleur, stuffing the book back onto the shelf beside her. "But it's better than disturbing your conversation."
"Not bad, you have quite a good eye." Kyle nodded, "It's worth my time and effort to research hair conditioner for you..."
Fleur wanted to hit someone again, but this was outside after all, and she had to maintain her image as Delacour.
"Shut up." Kanna stepped lightly on Kyle's foot.
"We want to go out for a walk, you can come with us," she said.
"Go for a walk outside?" Furong blinked, thinking she had misheard.
Doesn't Kyle know how he got here? He entered the country illegally. If he is found out, he will be arrested!
You can just chat in the room, but why go outside... Are you afraid that you won't be conspicuous enough?
"Do not worry."
Kyle knew what Fleur was thinking without having to guess, and said immediately, "The Aurors can't catch me. Besides, I'm not one of those well-known dangerous dark wizards, so no one will be watching me. As long as I don't advertise it loudly on the streets, there will be no problem."
"Besides, it's rare for me to come to France, so I have to travel around. I'll just treat it as a vacation."
"Ha, whatever you want." Seeing that the two of them had the same idea, Furong was too lazy to persuade them anymore.
Anyway, even if Kyle was caught by the Aurors, the Delacour family could get him out with their ability. If that doesn't work, there's still Madam Maxime.
As Kyle himself said, his popularity is not that good.
Maybe he is very famous in the UK, but this is France. Who knows who Kyle is? If it weren't for the Triwizard Tournament, she would not have known there was such a person.
It is not difficult to rescue such an "ordinary" wizard. At most, you just need to pay a large sum of Galleons.
Of course, she definitely didn't pay for this Galleon... Kyle had money.
"Where do you want to go?" As they walked out of the bookstore, Furong immediately put on a large sun hat and hid her face under the brim.
"The first stop must be Beauxbatons," Kyle said without hesitation.
Coming to France and not visiting Beauxbatons is like going to the UK and not eating fish and chips; both are missing out on the most special thing.
"You have good taste. Ms. Maxime happened to tell me about you a few days ago. We can go see her together." Furong nodded.
"Please wait a moment." She looked around and walked into a shop.
"What did she do?" Kyle asked curiously.
Connor shook her head.
Even though she had been in France for such a long time, she didn’t know much more about the surroundings than Kyle. She only knew that the sign of the store that Fleur entered read…Mrs. Celie’s travel essentials?
That’s roughly what it means.
But they didn't have to wait long, probably only about five minutes, and Furong came out, with a carpet in her hand.
"Why did you buy a carpet?"
"You British wizards are just ignorant." Furong said with disgust, "What carpet? This is a flying carpet.
"After all, you can't use Apparition or ride in a magic carriage. We can't ride a flying broom to Beauxbatons."
"Follow me." She took the two of them to a fenced area next to Gringotts, opened the floor... and spread the flying carpet on the ground.
"Come on, what are you waiting for? It will be dark if you are any later."
Kyle quickly walked over to sit on the blanket, and Connor followed suit and sat next to him.
No one knew what Furong did afterwards, but the flying carpet immediately floated up and flew quickly forward.
It was Kyle's first time using this means of transportation. He patted the blanket in front of him. Even though he was in mid-air, he still felt like he was sitting on the ground and had no sense of being suspended in the air at all.
"What a waste of money." Kyle sighed, "I didn't expect that you would buy a means of transportation just because of our sudden decision."
"Instead of talking about this, why don't you give me the money for the flying carpet?" Furong said without turning her head.
"That's too formal." Kyle turned his head away. "Talking about money hurts our feelings, and I can't take this thing with me."
"I can't take it away... Oh, by the way, I remember you don't have a flying carpet over there." Furong asked in front.
"No," Kyle said, "this is my first time riding a flying carpet."
In the British Ministry of Magic, flying carpets are prohibited items and trade is prohibited. As a good and law-abiding wizard, he certainly has never experienced it.
"You are really weird." Furong couldn't help asking, "Why do you want to ban this convenient means of transportation? A flying carpet is definitely more comfortable than a large flying broom. In France, it is the most popular means of transportation."
"This is an oversight." Kyle thought for a moment, "Carpets were registered as Muggle handicrafts a long time ago, and it is forbidden to cast magic on them."
"So it's illegal to fly this thing over the UK, and the process of changing a bill is too cumbersome. It's just a means of transport, so maybe ministers don't think it's necessary."
"Tsk." Furong made a smacking sound but didn't say anything else.
Just like the UK had its own special Floo network, France seemed to also have paths provided for flying carpets. Not a single Muggle looked up at them along the way.
Although Kyle felt that the flying carpet was not very fast, it only took them an hour to reach the Pyrenees Mountains, which were far away from Paris.
This is also where Beauxbatons was founded. It is like another nickname of Beauxbatons, a magical garden located in the mountains.
Furong continued to drive the flying carpet forward, flying over one mountain after another, through the thick clouds, and heading from the edge to the middle of the mountains.
Finally the flying carpet landed on the tallest mountain nearby.
"We're here." Fleur said with a bit of pride, pointing forward, "That's Beauxbatons."
Following the direction of her finger, Kyle saw a huge manor surrounded by mountains.
Yes, a piece, Beauxbatons itself is like a strangely shaped mountain.
This was the largest place he had ever seen, even bigger than Hogwarts... Of course, that was if the Forbidden Forest was not counted.
"How does it feel?" Furong asked.
"Prettier than Hogwarts," said Kyle.
This is true, the magical parts of Hogwarts are all inside. From the outside it looks like an ancient castle, and it even looks a bit eerie at night when there is no light.
But Beauxbatons is much more magnificent. At first glance, it is a large area of dazzling gold and blue, and the architectural shape is also more exquisite.
Especially the huge fountain in front of the castle, which was the most magnificent fountain he had ever seen. The water column could spray nearly fifty feet high, and then the water column would spread evenly from different heights to form seven layers of huge circular water curtains.
Even the colors of these water curtains are different, there are seven in total, like a spherical rainbow. Around it, there are three soaring Pegasus, which are also made of water.
Compared to it, the one in the Ministry of Magic is like a faucet installed upside down. It is not only unoriginal but also ugly.
"Everyone who sees Beauxbatons for the first time thinks so." Fleur said with a smile. "Come on, I'll take you in."
"Is it okay now?" Kyle asked. "You've already graduated, and we're not even from this school yet."
