Chapter 66
Chapter 66: Stand Up
The ghost mask girl named Fanny Ardan is a very quiet-looking brown-haired girl, whose image is completely inconsistent with her performance last night.
If it wasn’t for her introduction, Mellon would definitely not have recognized her.
Relatively speaking, the fiancé who came with her gave Melendo a few glances.
Because this guy is wearing a pair of pince-nez glasses, his hair is slightly messy, his body is thin, and he has a sense of sight of Harry Potter.
They claimed to be an intern reporter called “Wizard Education News”, and now they are interviewing Mellen, not because of the “Kevin incident” that everyone is talking about, but the duel at the banquet.
“So, as one of the parties, how do you feel about that duel?”
Mike, the short wizard, was surprised when Melen offered to not leave the Half-Blood Association, and was immediately blocked by these two reporters.
So he followed Merron confusedly to the meeting room of the Mixed-Blood Association to be interviewed together.
“I think Iger might be a little out of shape in the duel.”
He told the truth: “At that time, he should have been distracted to pay attention to the group of enemies at the banquet, so if it happens again, it is not easy to say who wins and who loses.”
These words were very sincere, and the brown-haired girl Fanny nodded earnestly when she heard the words, looking very serious.
It’s just that when she saw the truthful written record of her fiancé next to her, she grabbed the interview book, crossed out the words on it, and rewritten a paragraph.
“Mike, a disciple of Jefferson, the chief master of the dueling club, admitted that he was reluctant to win. If he did it again, he didn’t think he could defeat Iger Wilson of the Mixed-Blood Association.”
The short wizard was sitting on the opposite sofa at this time, unable to see the contents of the interview book that Fanny had put on his lap, so that it was arranged like this without knowing it at all.
Meren’s sharp eyes, but he saw it clearly, which made him a little surprised.
At the banquet last night, this person spoke for himself, and it may be out of a sense of justice.
At this moment, why is she still facing herself like this?
It’s a pity that this one looks serious at the moment, and Melon can’t see what she’s thinking.
And the “fiance” sitting next to her, seeing Melun’s strange expression, gave Melun a wry smile—
Mellen also didn’t know what he was laughing at.
“Then, before the banquet, did you understand that this duel was not simple?”
Fanny, the brown-haired girl, was still asking questions about the short wizard.
“I know a little bit. Jim of the Ernest family made a bet with me. If Thales is defeated by Iger, I will stand up and continue to challenge him.”
[Mike, a disciple of the chief dueling master Jefferson, indirectly participated in Kevin’s plan, but he regretted not facing Iger Wilson in his heyday, which made him feel invincible. 】
“You mentioned earlier that when the riot started, you and Iger stayed away from the battlefield together. Why did you run into Iger?”
“By chance, I just wanted to escape through the window, but I didn’t expect Iger to stand outside, just because I saw those snakes…”
[Mike admits that if he hadn’t been lucky enough to meet Iger Wilson, he might have died in that catastrophic attack, and in the face of a dangerous escape situation, Iger Wilson did not forget to rescue him who was seriously injured and fell to the ground. Impressed Mike…]
…
Questions and answers, time flies.
After several conversations, the one-page notepad was finished like this, and then the short wizard was stumbled out of the living room.
The brown-haired girl Fanny turned her gaze to Mellen.
From this, Meren sat upright and waited.
Although I have had the experience of being interviewed before, it is the first time that I have been interviewed by a wizard, or that his remarks will appear in public in the wizarding world. Of course, it needs to be treated with caution.
First impressions are very important, so although he did not think that he would become a public figure in the future, Mellen would not take it lightly.
After all, fame can be converted into many other benefits at some point, such as wealth, such as connections, such as status, and even privilege.
However, the first question Fanny asked next caught Merron by surprise.
“As a boy in puberty, you don’t have a single pimple on your face? And you look smoother and more tender than most girls… Iger Wilson, can you tell us how you take care of your skin? ”
The brown-haired girl looked serious when she asked the question, but there was an inexplicable excitement in her eyes.
Does the coverage of the Wizarding Education newspaper also include skin care…
The smile on Meren’s face was a little stiff, and he looked at his fiance brother next to Fanny.
The other party gave him another wry smile.
Obviously can’t count on him.
Merron then restrained his strange mood, and turned his eyes to the brown-haired girl who was looking at him with a serious attitude.
“I usually put some cucumber slices on my face to keep the skin hydrated, and then add some…”
I don’t say it’s innate, because it doesn’t give a good impression other than envy and envy.
In turn, introducing some skin care tips can make some female readers feel close to him.
This is not because of how superb this little trick is, whoever uses it will say yes.
But because Mellon showed that he is also “maintaining his skin” at ordinary times—
When a person faces a stranger or a public figure in the newspaper, why is it that some people are very indifferent, and some people can’t consciously develop a cordial attitude?
One of the reasons is that the public figure has a certain trait, or label, that is the same as the reader.
People are always most familiar with themselves. To put it to the extreme, people always like themselves most.
Therefore, if a person meets a person who is the same or very similar to himself in some aspects, then the subconscious will give birth to closeness.
For example, they both like to keep cats, they like to sleep on rainy days, and they are both introverted and straightforward…
Some Western politicians in previous lives liked to use this little trick to show themselves, which can be seen in their personal introductions or in their words and deeds in their daily activities.
What a good father, a good neighbor, likes to watch dramas, has an unsatisfactory son, loves to watch A Song of Ice and Fire or something.
Simple and rude, but very effective.
At least right now, the brown-haired girl with a seemingly serious expression looked at Melen with a little surprise and intimacy involuntarily – her previous attitude seemed to be flirting with Mellen, not so serious.
So the second question seems relatively normal.
“When we first came in, I heard that you are not planning to leave the Mixed-Blood Association. Why do you think so? Is it because you are reluctant to be here?”
“That’s just one aspect.”
Meren said with a slight embarrassment: “On the other hand, I think staying in the Half-Blood Association can more directly confront those enemies who try to split the relationship between pure-blood and half-blood. This is at least better than going to a pure-blood family. Can contribute, even though I’m still a wizard apprentice, not a lot.”
This is a bit false and ungrounded, but Mellen said these words not for grounding.
Or, he said these words, the purpose is to cater to those who are not down to earth.
That is, some high-level wizards.
Melon doesn’t know much about upper-level politics, but he can see the whole picture at a glance. Although the current mixed-race wizards are being discriminated against, their status in the wizarding world is slowly improving.
This can be seen from the fact that the old president got a top school admission quota.
What does this mean?
It means that although mainstream pure-bloods naturally despise mixed-bloods, the small group of people who now control the wizarding world are consciously mitigating this problem.
Mellen felt that although he was involved with the Felix family’s tiger skin last night, there would not be too many waves in the next encounter with the school.
But from the previous conversation with the old president, he saw another possibility.
That is, if you don’t choose to join the pure-blood side, how enthusiastic the pure-bloods are now, and how cold they will appear next.
Although it’s okay to be treated coldly, but now that there is this voice channel to deliver to the door, of course Merron will not miss the opportunity to add a “buff” to himself.
Skip the half-blood and pure-blood fights and go straight to the upper echelons of the wizarding world, or rather the ideas of the dominant moderates.
Isn’t this political correctness?
Therefore, he is now unwilling to leave the Mixed-Blood Association, which can be interpreted as sacrificing the ego and fulfilling the larger ego.
On the other hand, the executives are certainly not stupid enough to see through Melen’s careful thinking.
But see through it without saying it, Mellen’s remarks are conducive to promoting their “political ambitions”, so of course they can’t reject them, but will express their appreciation.
Of course, the premise of this is that the report will be seen, not ignored.
This is out of control.
In short, Melon’s idea is very simple. Do your best, listen to destiny, and whether the buff can be obtained or not depends on luck.
…
The brown-haired girl Fanny didn’t realize what Merlen’s remarks were doing, but it didn’t prevent her from expressing her affirmation.
She didn’t think there was any hypocrisy in Mellen’s words.
In fact, almost no one who was interviewed did not say some false and empty words.
After all, you can’t say that you’re a profit-seeking person if you don’t say something fake.
Kevin went even further in the newspapers about this.
For the future of the wizarding world, our generation is willing to take risks, and it is obligatory to fight against the enemy, which can better reflect the glory of pure blood.
He didn’t mention that this matter involved his mother-in-law’s territory. He was trying to please his mother-in-law and handle private affairs.
So the next interview was carried out in a very harmonious atmosphere.
As the interview continued, an image of an honest child who was mature, had a big picture, attached great importance to feelings, but was occasionally shy, was quietly born.
This kind of character is the most popular among “official masters”, and considering Melon’s excellent appearance, he also has an advantage in the women’s group.
“I have a hunch that if this story gets published, you’ll be more popular than Kevin.”
At the end of the interview, he was shaking hands with the brown-haired girl when Melon heard a word from the “fiance” who was reviewing the interview draft.
This surprised him a little, but before Merron could respond, the brown-haired girl who held his hand nodded earnestly.
“Although Kevin is smart, he is too ugly. Of course, it is impossible for Iger to be popular.”
Saying so, not only did she not let go of Melen’s hand, but she gently touched the back of Melun’s hand with her other hand~www.readwn.com~ with a sigh.
“Look at this skin, how smooth and tender… Iger, if it wasn’t for your Adam’s apple, I would have thought you were a woman.”
The **** has met a hooligan…
The smile on Meren’s face froze, and he couldn’t help looking at the “fiance” beside him.
However, what he didn’t expect was that this guy gave Melun a wry smile when he was so “tiger and wolf” about his fiancee.
“Sorry, Mr. Wilson, she’s just that kind of character, please don’t mind.”
…
The three here are “gossip”.
Over there, the old president Jacques has returned to the association from Chelsea Manor.
He seemed to have encountered some special circumstances, and even looked a little dazed, and didn’t even pay attention to the greeting of the vice-chairman Victor.
It wasn’t until the old examiner came to him and claimed that the memory inheritance ceremony was already being prepared, and he suddenly woke up.
“Memory inheritance? You mean…”
“Yes.”
The old examiner nodded, with a relieved smile on his face, “Iger has decided to stay.”
“It’s really a happy event.”
President Jacques smiled when he heard the words, but his expression was still a little absent-minded.
“You are, what happened?” Seeing him like this, the expression on the old examiner’s face became very solemn.
“On the contrary, it’s a good thing.”
President Jacques shook his head and said, “So good that I thought I was dreaming.”
“I even wonder if there will be any traps here.”
“What happened?” The old examiner was a little confused.
President Jacques then spoke to him in a low voice.
So the old man was stunned for a moment.
