Chapter 208 Cold Treatment (1)
The Great Hall in Hogwarts can no longer be called a Great Hall. After all, even if Hogwarts is an ancient castle, it is a bit outrageous that the Great Hall is so large that it can accommodate thousands of people.
When Sirius pushed open the door of the auditorium, he saw such a confusing scene. Although he knew that Vinceau Lord must be at the Slytherin table, what was going on with this endless crowd?
Are there so many students graduating from Slytherin?
What about those adult wizards wearing red and gold scarves and talking and laughing?
Sirius closed his eyes and waited for two seconds before opening them again, only to find that he was not dreaming. He grabbed a Hufflepuff who was passing by and asked him, only to find out that there were too many people and there were no seats available, so everyone finally "reluctantly" found an empty seat and sat down.
'Does this mean he can sit next to Wen Xiu and have lunch with him?'
Letting go of the Hufflepuff's clothes beside him, Sirius walked towards the Slytherin long-long table.
As for James Potter, I believe he has telepathy with Lily and will find her.
Sirius found Wen Xiu and his companions not long after walking. There was no other way, Wen Xiu Lord's long silver-gray hair was too conspicuous, and compared with the lively atmosphere around him, the silence around the silver-haired boy was like a vacuum zone.
Walburga Black quietly cut the steak on the plate. There was no sound of the knife rubbing against the plate, showing his aristocratic etiquette to the fullest.
He glanced at the three young men opposite him who had grim expressions, then looked at his youngest son who was sitting next to him without saying a word but was obviously in a low mood, and then tilted his head slightly to glance at Lucius who was eating with an expressionless face and was actually almost cutting the steak into ground beef.
She always felt that she shouldn't be sitting here at this moment, and Abraxas Malfoy should also leave with her.
Sally Bone was not the only one to buy a magic telescope, and she was not the only one to see Sirius French-kissing Vincent Lord.
An auditorium where people gather is the best place to exchange gossip. There will always be a few gossipers who will tell others about the erotic things they have seen.
The mood of several people was not as bad as it is now before they entered the auditorium, but as soon as they opened the door, Wenxiu Lord saw the thing he least wanted to see happen.
Do you know what it feels like to be stared at by thousands of eyes?
It was like a monkey with its hair plucked out, locked in a cage so small that it could not move freely. The cage was placed on a high platform, with people watching and observing it from all angles.
At this moment, Wenxiu Lord swore, it was really only this second, he wanted to destroy the world.
Tom Riddle, who was sitting in the teacher's seat, caught this fleeting murderous intent. That brief, strong and pure murderous aura made him feel that this silver-haired boy whose mind was full of romance was not so stupid and boring.
He wanted to see Wenxiu Lord unleash more pure evil, so that he could prove that he was not wrong and that Wenxiu Lord was still worth recruiting as his subordinate.
Vinciu Lord is not the only one who wants to kill people. Severus has now decided where to bury Sirius.
Even Remus was thinking about how to reasonably beat Sirius into St. Mungo's.
Fair competition is allowed, but taking advantage of external information gaps to build momentum for oneself is not allowed.
Regulus felt as uncomfortable as the grilled lamb chops on his plate. Both sides were repeatedly roasted by the raging fire, and finally sprinkled with salt and black pepper.
Abraxas Malfoy sighed inwardly when he saw his son's drastic emotional ups and downs. It was a relationship that was destined to have no possibility, so he should just forget it as soon as possible after going through the torment.
When Sirius walked straight to Wenxiu Lord, what he saw was this silent scene that was out of tune with the chaos and noise in the room.
When Walburga Black saw Sirius coming over, before she even asked him to sit next to her, the tension in the people around her became even lower.
Now that the culprit who caused his social death appeared before him, it was a good thing that Wenxiu Lord didn't cast a spell to blast him away.
He suppressed his inner shame and anger, but he was actually more ashamed because today's incident would spread throughout the British wizarding world within two days. Even if he was the head of the Lord family and could control the newspapers, he could not control people's gossiping hearts.
At least now, he didn't want to see Sirius. Before he had taken two bites of the food on the plate, Wenxiu Lord took out a handkerchief to wipe the oil stains from the corners of his lips. Without even glancing at the dessert on the table, he stood up and prepared to leave.
When the silver-haired young man stood up, the people around him simply stopped eating. They had no mood to eat now, they were just forcing themselves to eat.
Sirius saw Wenxiu Lord get up and turn away without even glancing at him, so he wanted to chase after him.
His wrist was held, and Wenxiu Lord shook off Sirius' hand without hesitation. When the silver-gray eyes no longer contained the warmth and smile, only coldness remained.
"Don't follow me."
'Doesn't he know how many eyes are watching him? Isn't that eye-catching enough?' When he thought of this, Wenxiu Lord's mood became even worse, and he couldn't even keep his calm face.
The low air pressure around them silenced the young Slytherin wizards who were originally chatting in low voices. The speed of silence was like that of children in Muggle society hearing their parents telling ghost stories and scaring them not to cry and disturb others at night. The effect was seen in a second.
The vigilance in his eyes and the annoyance in his words were not concealed at all, and Sirius's arms were stiffly raised in the air. Narcissa saw Sirius's stupid expression and knew that this must be the first time he saw how Wenxiu Lord was really angry with him.
Shaking her head in her heart, Narcissa began to envy Sirius. 'This is too much pampering.'
She glanced at her worthless platinum fiancé and pouted in disdain, "Forget it, let's just complete the cooperation and run away with the money."
Thinking about the future when she could travel around the world with a large sum of money that she could never spend, Narcissa felt as happy as fireflies in the dark night.
Lily saw that everyone was getting up to leave, so she stood up as well. When she passed by Sirius, she patted his shoulder and shook her head, then quickly walked up to Wenxiu Lord who was waiting for her, and left the auditorium with the others.
Everyone left the auditorium and the door blocked the view behind them. Only then did Wenxiu Lord's tense nerves relax.
"Huh," the boy exhaled and leaned against the wall in the corridor. He felt that the Quidditch game was not as tiring as before.
Regulus peeled off the candy wrapper and handed it to Wenxiu Lord, "What is Wenxiu going to do now?"
He was asking not only about the information that was about to be transmitted, but also about how to treat Sirius in the next period of time.
"What can I do? I'll notify Sebastian to go to the newspaper. As for the others, I'll just have to ignore them. I can't control so many mouths."
It was simple and crude, but there wouldn't be a better way. After all, unless Voldemort rioted on the spot and led his Death Eaters to kill people, what other explosive news could overshadow the popularity of this gossip?
Several people present were somewhat dissatisfied with this simple way of handling the matter. Even Lily felt that Wenxiu Lord was too indulgent towards Sirius. Such a big trouble was just dealt with coldly.
If it weren't for the fact that Vince Lord was equally indulgent towards Severus and Remus, Lily would have said, "Remember to invite me to your wedding when you two get married in the future."
