Chapter 338 Spring and Autumn Writing Style
Hagrid began to ask where Madame Maxime got her half-giant genes, wanting to find out the life story of her crush, thinking that he could find resonance by getting closer to her soul.
Well, talking about deep things with someone you just met is a taboo everywhere.
Especially since this happened in an open-air venue, all they needed to do was use a loud speaker to make the announcement.
That fool revealed the half-giant's identity, and Madame Maxime became incredibly angry.
"How dare you! I have never been insulted like this in my life! Half-giant? Me? I'm just--I'm just big-boned!"
Her voice cut through the silent night as she screamed out of control.
Alison lifted the Disillusionment Charm and came out from behind the bushes, flowers and statues, smiling as she inadvertently walked onto the path that Madame Maxime would take as she angrily left.
Madame Maxime obviously did not expect to meet anyone here - or rather, she thought that the little wizards would politely pretend not to hear such a terrible privacy - the expression on her face froze for a moment.
Especially since this person is Miss Grindelwald.
Alison raised her head high, frowned slightly in worry, and looked at Madame Maxime. There was an imperceptible calculation floating in her clear and heterochromatic eyes.
"Dear Madame Maxime, I am sorry to have heard the slanderous words against you..."
"Originally, it would be best to ignore such slanderous remarks, but I have to step out and remind you now. I just saw a strange beetle with patterns like glasses flying by. It seems to be the illegal Animagus of the female reporter of the Daily Prophet who likes to make up stories."
As soon as she finished speaking, a trace of panic flashed across Madame Maxime's face and she looked around subconsciously.
But a beetle is such a small target, especially since Madame Maxime is such a big person.
In her panicked sight, there was only Hagrid, who had just said those stupid words and was sitting on the stone bench, and Alison, who had tipped her off.
Looking more closely, it seemed that among the flowers there was also Fleur, who accidentally heard this from their school and was so embarrassed that she didn't know whether she should come out, and Fleur's dance partner, Roger from Hogwarts.
Later, Hagrid heard what Alison said, and shifted his attention from the sadness of Madame Maxime's attitude. He looked at Alison with a puzzled expression on his face, as if he wanted to ask something - Alison seriously suspected that the idiot didn't even understand what "Animagus Transformation" was.
Looking around, Madame Maxime calmed down from her momentary panic and her eyes gradually became sharp, like a threatened lion.
She didn't bother to get angry at Hagrid, and instead calmed down in her excessive anger.
I can't stay here any longer.
I guess tomorrow's newspaper headlines will either say "Principal Beauxbatons is in love with a half-blood giant" or "Principal Beauxbatons is suspected to be a half-blood giant."
Compared to a marginal little person whose gamekeeper and key keeper at Hogwarts is a half-giant, it is obviously more interesting to have a celebrity like Headmaster Beauxbatons.
Throughout her long life, Madame Maxime had to deal with journalists, people who could make something false seem true, easily guide public opinion and ruin a person's reputation, and who were particularly keen on topics and hot spots.
What's more, she knew better than anyone that what Hagrid had just said was true. She was a half-giant and there was no need for reporters to make up stories.
She had to go back and prepare herself, because she had agreed to a date with this foolish fellow out of a momentary rashness, which led to the exposure of her bloodline, and would bring great negative impact on herself and Beauxbatons.
Alison was anxious at this time, knowing that what was important was not the truth, but the solution to the problem.
Her voice sounded like the sound of nature.
"This matter is the responsibility of Hogwarts, and it has caused trouble to the distinguished guests of our friendly school. I swear in the name of my fathers, I will tell my fathers about Hagrid's unwarranted slander of you, suppress the fabrications of that eavesdropping bug, and ensure that this matter will not have any negative impact."
"As far as the history of the Triwizard Tournament is concerned, the friendship between Hogwarts and Beauxbatons has lasted for more than seven hundred years. I sincerely hope that the friendship between the two magic schools will last forever and that the connection will become even closer in the future."
After all, Hagrid is a faculty member of Hogwarts, and Skeeter was able to sneak in because of the lack of security.
Alison did not try to shirk responsibility. Instead, she took the responsibility graciously and cleared the headmaster of Beauxbatons of all blame, saying that it was entirely her own fault that the "innocent" Madame Maxime suffered.
Whether she was innocent or not, Madame Maxime would make her own judgment, but Alison's words were indeed touching, and she also promised to solve the problem, so the VIP didn't have to worry about it.
Really thoughtful, a kind person.
Just don’t worry about where this public opinion crisis comes from.
The expression on Madame Maxime's face suddenly relaxed. She looked deeply at the child who had a hint of Dumbledore's majesty, nodded, and thanked him in a low voice.
"You are too polite. This is our responsibility. I would like to thank you for your generosity in not blaming us."
Alison exchanged a few more pleasantries and sent the relaxed Beauxbatons headmaster away.
As Madame Maxime left, other students who had accidentally heard these private matters among the flowers also scattered.
Only Hagrid was left, sitting there in a daze, looking at Madame Maxime's back, his expression unclear.
Alison curled her lips and left in a different direction.
Needless to say, after such a scare, Madame Maxime and Hagrid were sure to blow.
If you get angry and let your emotions out, there might be a chance to make amends, but this calm attitude clearly shows that you have thought it through.
It doesn't matter.
Hagrid's bubbly love in exchange for the favor of Beauxbatons and the French Ministry of Magic, which might be influenced by Beauxbatons, is a deal that couldn't be more profitable.
As for the female reporter who might leak secrets?
In fact, Alison was alarmist and exaggerated the facts from beginning to end.
The beetles that illegally entered Hogwarts have been buried deep and have long been used as fertilizer for the rose bushes, giving back to their alma mater.
Some plants are carnivorous, and they will bloom more beautifully only with fresh flesh and blood.
If you want to blame someone, blame the senior student herself. She used her little cleverness to take advantage of loopholes and make herself annoying.
