Chapter 379 Weird Dinner



Wentworth looked at the petite, even cute girl in front of him with some surprise.

Wentworth was not surprised by the other person's appearance, although the girl in front of him was indeed good-looking, with fair skin, bright eyes, and perhaps because of her petite figure, she could inspire a desire to protect in men.

But what really surprised Wentworth was that the other party was wearing a white wizard robe.

Wentworth, who had just finished listening to Tachibana Uesugi's introduction, clearly remembered that the other party said that the little wizards in white wizard robes were all wizards who had betrayed the Japanese wizarding code or even committed illegal acts. If they were placed in Europe, they would definitely be dark wizards.

But it is hard to associate this cute and well-behaved little girl with the actions of those dark wizards.

At this moment, Tachibana Uesugi smiled unnaturally, then quickly pulled Wentworth over and introduced him to the girl in front of him: "Uesugi Taketsu, let me introduce you to this person, your opponent in this magic school potion championship, the genius from Hogwarts, Wentworth Dumbledore!"

After hearing Tachibana Uesugi's introduction, the girl looked at Wentworth curiously, then shyly extended her hand and said:

"Hello, my name is Shangshan Zhuque, please...please give me your guidance!"

Seeing this, Wentworth quickly stretched out his hand. When Wentworth held hands with Taketsu Uesugi, Wentworth discovered that the originally fair cheeks of the girl named Taketsu Uesugi seemed to be stained with a layer of blush.

Is she... shy? Wentworth thought in confusion.

He quickly pulled his hand back, shook hands with Emma Hughes again, bowed deeply to Albus Dumbledore, and then left hurriedly with his head down.

Seeing Takezabu Uesugi leaving, Wentworth suddenly heard Tachibana Uesugi beside him heaving a sigh of relief.

Afterwards, Tachibana Uesugi returned to his smiling self and led Wentworth and others forward.

But what Wentworth didn't notice was that Dumbledore had frowned and remained silent since the appearance of Uesugi Taketori.

Afterwards, Wentworth and others followed Tachibana Uesugi and walked into the pagoda on top of the South Iwo Jima volcano, which looked like it was made entirely of white jade.

Wentworth went up along the winding road, and at the top of the pagoda, he met the current headmaster of the Institute of Magic, Yuan Changkong! Unlike Dumbledore, Yuan Changkong, who was bald, always had a serious expression on his face. Ju Yousheng, who had been smiling all the way, immediately restrained his smile after seeing Yuan Changkong, and became a little restrained.

Only when facing Dumbledore did Yuan Changkong force out a smile, but it was obvious that Yuan Changkong's smile was very difficult.

Afterwards, Yuan Changkong exchanged a few words with Dumbledore, and then arranged for Ju Yousheng to take Wentworth and Emma Hughes to the room prepared for them in advance.

Wentworth followed Tachibana Uesugi to his room. When he opened the door, he couldn't help but exclaim in surprise in his heart.

Although the furnishings in the room were simple, it was obvious that the room was designed with great care. What caught Wentworth's eye the most was this room at the top of the pagoda. There was a huge floor-to-ceiling window, and outside the window was the endless sea.

Looking at this standard sea view room in front of him, Wentworth couldn't help but ask, "Are all the school buildings in your school like this?"

Hearing Wentworth's question, Tachibana Uesugi laughed and then explained, "Of course not. Due to the special structure of our school, the rooms at the top of the tower have more pleasant views. Most of the distinguished guests who come to our school stay on the top three floors of the pagoda."

"The school buildings for our students are all located at the bottom of the pagoda, and the middle floors are the classrooms of our school."

After a simple packing, Wentworth and Emma Hughes went to the banquet under the leadership of Tachibana Uesugi.

Like in Uagadou, the Japanese magic house also prepared a welcome dinner for Wentworth and his party.

However, as soon as he entered the room where the banquet was held, Wentworth keenly discovered that the expression of his headmaster, Albus Dumbledore, seemed a little ugly, and even a little indignant.

Yuan Changkong's expression was as serious as ever.

At the same time, in addition to Dumbledore and Yuan Changkong, there were six more people sitting on one side of the room. When Ju Yousheng brought Wentworth and Emma Hughes into the room, Ju Yousheng naturally sat on the side where the six people were, but at the very bottom.

Although it was a bit puzzling, Wentworth still took Emma Hughes to find their seats and sat down.

As soon as the two of them sat down, Yuan Changkong said, "Since everyone is here, let me introduce everyone first!"

Then Yuan Changkong pointed at Dumbledore and said to the people sitting on the side: "I don't think I need to introduce him in detail! Albus Dumbledore, the headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, and also the president of our International Confederation of Wizards!"

After that, after Yuan Changkong introduced Wentworth and Emma Hughes, he pointed at the people sitting beside them and introduced them:

"These people are all family representatives of the board of directors of our Japanese Magic Institute. You all already know Yusheng Tachibana. He is the representative of our Japanese magic family Tachibana in our school. That one is from the Sakurai family..."

"Including me, I represent the Yuan family. The eight of us are the board of directors of the Institute of Magic!"

Seeing that Yuan Changkong had finished his introduction, Dumbledore showed a somewhat far-fetched smile and said, "The famous Snake Family in the Japanese magic world, even though I am in Europe, I have heard a lot about them!"

Hearing what Dumbledore said, Tachibana Uesugi, who was sitting at the end , quickly said, "Principal Dumbledore, you are too polite. Our titles are just empty reputations. We really respect you! You are the most powerful white wizard in history. You really deserve the title!"

After the two sides flattered each other for a while, it was time to eat.

After just two bites, Dumbledore suddenly said:

"Regarding the matter of that girl, I want to know, was it a decision made by Principal Yuan Changkong himself, or was it a joint decision made by the eight Sheqi families?"

After hearing Dumbledore's words, the atmosphere at the banquet, which was not very lively to begin with, suddenly became quiet and no one spoke.

After a long while, someone finally spoke up: "That was decided after our eight Sheqi families discussed together. This is a brand new attempt, isn't it?"

Wentworth clearly remembered that the family represented by the person speaking was called Uesugi.
