Chapter 126 Pitching
A sudden voice interrupted Shane's thoughts.
He turned his head and looked in the direction where the sound came from, and saw Aldrich standing beside him expressionlessly, holding the wand tightly in his hand, and a red ghost flying ball bounced gently under his feet.
On the Quidditch pitch not far away, a group of Beauxbottom students riding broomsticks were laughing, their faces full of gloating. Seeing this scene, Shane naturally realized what had just happened. .
In any case, Beauxbottom's students deliberately provoked trouble, but Aldrich did not go to them to settle accounts. Instead, he looked at Shane first and asked anxiously: "Master, are you okay?"
Shane shook his head and said to Aldrich: "I'm fine. I just don't understand why these people are attacking me. I shouldn't hurt them. Is it because I'm an outsider?"
The mere reason to look at him differently was enough for these half-grown children to point the finger at him, so Shane's words were more of a joke than a genuine inquiry about the reason.
Aldrich looked at the Boothbottom students in the distance and suddenly remembered something. He nodded uncertainly and whispered to Shane: "Young teacher, these "six-nine-seven" people must have broken into the auditorium at noon. Then the group of people who were punished by Professor Maupassant may be blamed for the punishment they received in their middle age because of you, the young teacher."
After listening to Aldrich's words, Shane nodded silently, and after being reminded, he remembered.
He sighed helplessly. This was really inhumane.
"Hey Hogwarts, please throw us a ball, and if you can't throw it, tell us and we'll pick it up ourselves.
As soon as these words came out, the students burst into laughter again.
Shane looked at them and sighed again. He originally wanted to stay quietly in Beauxbatons for a month, read books, learn new skills, and then come back to reunite with his parents, but those little bastards insisted on playing with him. In this case, he Let them know why the flowers are so red.
"Aldrich, give me the ball
"Master, are you going?"
"They want the ball, we give it to them."
After listening to Shane's words, Aldrich said nothing. Jason said angrily: "Master Shi, is this the end of it? Are we really going to give the football school to them like this?"
Looking at Jason again, during this period of time, Jason always looked wandering and confused. Shane didn't care about him. He followed him anyway, and he didn't have to pay for meals. At this time, because of those Beauxbottom Jason's reaction to the students' provocation changed somewhat, and he sided with the values of those who shared the same hatred, but this can be considered an improvement.
Shane sneered and took the ghost ball handed to him by Aldridge and said to Jason: "Of course I have to give the ball back to them, but if they can't catch it themselves, it's not my problem, is it?"
After hearing this, Shane sped up his pace slightly, tightened his muscles all over his body, and his strength suddenly increased. He threw the ghost flying ball in his palm with one hand towards the person who yelled the loudest.
There was a boom, and the Quaffle in Shane's hand flew out instantly. Button Burton's classmates on the side let out a scream, and then they saw that the most lively person just took the Quaffle. Hitting the broomstick under his butt, the Quaffle immediately split into two halves, and fell down from a medium height together with its owner.
Shane grinned and led Aldrich and the disbelieving Jason out of the Quidditch pitch unhappily and into the hall to prepare for the afternoon dinner.
As for the loud shouts coming from the Quidditch pitch behind him, Shane automatically ignored them.
Sitting in the Beauxbatons auditorium, Shane tried many special skills. Jason kept looking at Shane. He didn't understand how Shane could have such great strength. He was not stupid. Of course he could see that the ball Shane threw just now, If it hits him right in the face, even if his head is not broken, he will basically lose half his life. If someone says that Shane is a giant monster in human skin, he will definitely believe it. If someone said Shane was a troll in human skin, he would definitely believe it.
Like Jason, Aldrich was also very curious about where the little master's power came from, but unlike Jason, although he was curious, he did not assume or question anything.
Before, when Gavin suggested that Aldrich follow Shane, Gavin made it clear that in the future, Shane should actually be the main direction. Even if one day Shane betrays the Burstad family, Aldrich will follow Shane, so Aldrich Derich was very curious about the young master's secret, but he did not inquire. This was the young master's professional ethics, and the words to comfort the young master's body and mind were completely instinctive.
After eating and drinking, Shane sat at the table to eat dessert.
At this time, Fleur and Barre came to Shane again.
"Can I sit here?"
Looking at the golden robe in Fleur's hand, Shane immediately understood why the two came to him. He nodded slightly and said: "I am Butbottom, I am the guest, you are the host, please sit down."
Fleur and Barre smiled, sat down at the table naturally, and started chatting with Shane.
"Shane, can I call you that? Seeing Shane nod, Fleur continued: "The two of us saw your article in "Golden Crucible" and would like to ask you some questions. Is it convenient for you? "
"Of course, if there are any questions, I'll know everything I need to know"
"Thank you very much. The most important thing is that you used two brand-new material processing methods. We want to know whether these two methods are universal and whether they can be used for other magic potions..."
After listening to Fleur and Barre's questions, Shane immediately realized that their achievements in magic potion were also quite high. He adjusted his thinking slightly, listened carefully to Fleur and Barre's questions, and then answered them seriously. After a while, Seconds passed until there were only two of them in the audience, and there were not so many people in the audience at first. The group stopped discussing.
Not only Flora and Barre, but also Shane also received awards. In the process of answering the two people's questions, Shane re-examined his thesis and reinterpreted it from the perspective of Flora and Barre.
Fleur and Barre were the first to say goodbye and leave. Shane drank a few glasses of wine, got up, and left the room with Oro Derich and Jason.
But just as they were leaving the hall, someone called him.
"Are you the one from Hogwarts?"
Shane turned to look at the other person: He was a boy of sixteen or seventeen years old, about fifth or sixth grade... Shane recognized him: when he passed by the Quidditch pitch just now, that guy had been there Wandering around the stadium, it seemed like he must be in the same group as those guys playing Quidditch.
"Are you with those kids playing Quidditch?"
"Children?" The visitor's eyes slightly raised, and he said in an extremely dissatisfied tone: "We are not children!"
"But the reason and the way you followed me are really not suitable for adults.
Since Professor Maupassant punished you for making loud noises and disturbing the peace, you did not dare to approach Professor Maupassant, so you approached me, an outsider present, and you deliberately hit me with a ball as I walked across the Quidditch pitch. approached me.
Instead of hitting me, I smashed the guy's broomstick with the ball, and then you came here and waited for me, and waited a long time, because you didn't dare to disturb me when Flora and Barre were around.
Let me guess what you are waiting for.
I guess I'm taking revenge on myself for what happened this afternoon?
As for the method of revenge, I don't know much about Beauxbottom's school rules, but I think Beauxbottom does not allow private duels at will, so you may ask me to duel, and I think Beauxbottom has rules about dueling. , you want to give me a duel lesson, make me look embarrassed, and then satisfy your childish pride.
I guess that's what you're going to do, right?"
After a series of words, Shane left the other party speechless. He opened his mouth many times to say something, but the words never came out. Every intention, every thought, and even the motivation in his heart were blocked. The other party spoke so clearly that he even had some doubts as to whether Shane was secretly trying to influence the royal family.
"You, you, you," the guest pressed their lips together tightly. For a while, his tongue turned over and over again in his mind and said it many times. Finally, he opened his mouth again and said contemptuously: "You have said so much, it is nothing more than... You want to give up our duel 4.3, but in fact, you are just afraid of us, what you are afraid of is...".
"No, contrary to what you said, I promise to fight you!"
Just kidding, how could I refuse the duel that came to me, because I haven't had time to test how strong I am after messing around with the gift package for so many days.
reject?
This is a stupid refusal!
Shane was as passionate as a mad dog on the inside, but calm and composed on the outside. He looked at his interlocutor and continued to ask: "When will the duel take place?"
The man looked at Shane, his mood was a little incoherent. He didn't know why, but he felt that the man was more eager to duel than he was... How could a freshman at Hogwarts who had just entered the second grade be more eager than he was in the fifth grade? What about the duel? This kid from Hogwarts should be ok, right?
"You, do you really agree to the duel?"
"We don't have time. When and where will the duel take place?" I frowned slightly: Why are these guys from Bootbottom swearing at each other while dueling at the same time?
"This is the dueling room in the basement at ten o'clock tomorrow morning that you mentioned."
"alright, I got it.".
