HP: Hogwarts, but pro-generation
Chapter 209 209
"—I wouldn't agree with…wait, what?"
Ander's words were a step slower than Xia's. He recalled what Xia had said a second ago, which made him look troubled.
"Do you know what you are talking about?" he asked.
Ander really wanted to dig open Xia's brain and take a closer look. Does she know how to protect herself? Does she know what it means to stay out of trouble? It can't be that when she was a child, she was always called a troll. She really has no brains like a troll when she grows up, right?
He angrily grabbed Xia's arm and walked out, saying to his confused friends, "You go back first!"
Xia didn't know how Ander found his way, she just followed Ander through many turns and finally came to an empty corridor. The two of them stopped at a window.
"I have to ask clearly," Ander looked at Xia, "Do you really know the consequences?"
Ender was very confused. They had discussed this before, so why didn't she understand the pros and cons? If she really wanted to help Greengrass, Nott would not miss this opportunity. And Voldemort, he couldn't have been unaware of it...
If it really worked... Ander didn't even dare to think about it. Who knew that Xia would be so brave as to really want to help -
Why does she persist when so many people are coveting her abilities?!
Ander looked at Xia leaning on the window sill to look at the scenery, and his mind was full of thoughts. He didn't understand, he really didn't understand.
"I know what you are worried about. To be honest, I am also afraid of all the unknown things that will happen next."
The wind blew through the corridor, and her silver-white hair fluttered behind her. Xia turned her head slightly to look at Ander, her eyes gentle and firm: "But I care more about the things in front of me. I have the ability to help others relieve their pain, so why should I refuse?"
"I felt really bad about involving Betty last time. If this ability causes more incidents like Betty's to happen again, why can't I use it to do something useful instead?"
"Besides, Christian is my friend. If it was you, James, Lily, Sirius, or Remus, I would have made the same choice."
Xia continued to talk a lot of things that Ander didn't want to hear at all. He actually understood what Xia meant. It was just that she had abilities that ordinary people didn't have so she wanted to help everyone she helped. It was a great idea, but unfortunately, Ander couldn't accept it.
"...and I believe you would do the same, right?"
Ander snorted coldly and turned his head away from looking at Xia who was squinting at him.
Andrick Hopps never said that he was a kind person. He could throw dung balls to the kidnappers with James, and he could stand up when he saw someone being bullied, because it was related to himself, and no matter how big the problem was, it would not involve the people around him.
Xia said that he would make the same choice as her? It's ridiculous. Ander thought. He would just keep this a secret. What does the fate of others have to do with him? Why would he hurt himself to save others? If he really got into trouble, would those people he helped come to help him?
And friends…why do Xia and James value them so much? How can they guarantee that the friends they make will be very good to them and will never betray them?
In the face of interests, can the choices of friends really be trusted? Ander didn't know this. He thought that if he was allowed to choose, he could accept any outcome, but Xia... No, absolutely not.
Ander withdrew his gaze from the downstairs, but his eyes still stubbornly refused to look at Xia, and just stared at a point in the void.
"What a frivolous assumption."
"Hey, don't be so cold."
Xia forcibly twisted Ander's head and forced him to look at her. His face was held tightly by her and he could only make "oh oh" sounds in resistance.
"This is more like when we were kids," Xia's smile deepened. "Are you thinking that no one can be trusted and the only person you can trust is yourself? And you're thinking that if you have this ability, everything will be fine, but I can't?"
Although his head was controlled, fortunately his eyes were not. Ander slowly moved his eyes, looking up, down, left, right, but not looking at Xia. Xia was not angry either. She followed Ander's eyes and kept turning her head to make sure that her head could still be in the center of his sight after he looked away.
A useful method, but very weird.
The people hiding in the dark were silent. They followed quietly because they were worried about Ander and Xia, but they didn't come forward to disturb them out of politeness and just peeked in. Who would have thought that they would see such a strange scene?
Remus took the photo with the camera Xia gave him and put it silently into his schoolbag. He thought that this photo must not be circulated.
"I actually think the same thing as you - I mean I can accept myself doing this but I wouldn't accept it if it was you."
"So, don't be angry, just support me. If even you don't support me... I can't think of anyone who can agree with every idea of mine more."
Xia's ability to coax people has gradually improved with age, but she is unlikely to say it directly unless necessary. After all, she prefers to make others angry rather than coaxing them.
Sure enough, Ander no longer struggled to avoid Xia. He simply pushed Xia away and strode away without even a glance.
A few people in the distance who didn't know what was going on were struggling over whether to jump out and stop them, but the next second they heard Ander's voice coming from the other end: "Why, do you still need me to lead the way?"
Then Xia ran over.
Strange, very strange.
It's confusing.
"Andre, I knew you were a good man."
As soon as she was no longer in the situation of trying to comfort others, Xia's words began to prick people like needles.
"Why didn't you agree earlier? You don't have to be angry just now."
"When did I say yes? Did I just say you can see Christian? Did I say 'Yes, Sylvia, go and save him'?"
Xia rolled her eyes where Ander couldn't see. This was how he was. He had one set of standards for himself and others, and another for her.
Very annoying.
But Ender always thinks about her anyway. She can guess that Ender is worried about being betrayed by his friends, and she understands this very well. Think about James - sorry, I use you as an example here - Xia thought, she will be very careful, and if something really happens, well, it can only be her bad luck.
"And I want to watch you talk to him."
Xia clenched her sleeves silently. She knew that Ander was a tsundere. She could understand that, very well - would he start to talk properly if she punched him later?
