Chapter 168： What does he want to do (2/2)

”Oh, you don't seem to understand me.” Brod intertwined his hands, looked at Hertok, and kindly reminded: ”He doesn't need any compensation from you, you just need to clean up the mess you caused. .”

”A mess?” Hertok repeated softly.

”Isn't it?” Brod asked rhetorically.

”To some extent, it is indeed a mess.” Hertok did not deny this. ”But it's not a big deal.”

”It might be a big deal for him.” Brod said.

Hertok was silent and nodded again to show that he knew.

”Thank you, Mr. Browder.” Hertok stood up and thanked the other person, and then left.

”Don't stay for a cup of evening tea?” Brod asked with a smile, ”We can sit down and talk...”

”No,” Hertok simply refused, ”Thank you for your kindness, but I am very busy and have a lot of things to do, so I don't have much time to enjoy the leisure time.”

”I think you'll be willing to sit down and talk to me soon.” Brod didn't care, and smiled and said to Hertok, ”I won't be here next time I meet.”

Hertok left the hut in the lake and took the small broken boat back to the shore of the lake. He already knew the boy's name, and the next step was to negotiate with the other party and get his gold membership card back.

”He's gone!”

As soon as Hertok's front foot left, McDoug smiled and sat in the position where Hertok had just been. He picked up his untouched glass, drank the lipstick wine, and blinked and said, ”It tastes good. However, Anderson didn't even send me a bottle.”

”Because I am his professor!” Brod touched his beard and smiled happily.

”Do you think Hertok will succeed?”.

”If he cleans up the mess he caused, he will get his belongings back.” Brod said with a smile.

”By the way, why are you meeting Hertok with me?” McDoug asked again.

Yes, the cottage in the lake is actually one of McDoug's homes. Although it is called the cottage, it is actually a small manor.

”That guy will definitely not get the gold membership card back. When he comes here to find me, he will definitely find no one.” Brod said happily.

”How did you guess it was a gold membership card?” McDoug asked rhetorically.

”Otherwise, what do you think would make Hertok bother to find?” Brod said cheerfully.

”Then why...”

”Why did it fail?” Brod asked rhetorically.

”Ok.”

”Anderson is different from other children,” Brod said softly, ”If Hurtock wants to use compensation to solve this problem, he must be a bit ashamed.”

”Well, I heard that Rowena plans to go to Hogwarts as a professor of defense against the dark arts.” McDoug suddenly changed the subject.

”This...” Brod sipped the lipstick wine and frowned.

McDoug's tone became very serious, frowning slightly, ”What is he doing at Hogwarts?”

”Does Gerber know about this?” Brod asked suddenly.

”I don't know for the time being.” McDoug shook his head and said: ”Go to him and ask what is going on!”

”Gerber will definitely not tell Rowena about inheritance because of his relatives.” Brod shook his head and directly rejected the most likely thing: ”As Smith's direct line, I must have seen some relevant records. Rowena is very good. Smart, he probably guessed something from these records.”

”He is very smart, but his personality is not suitable~ McDoug said softly: ”And...Forget it, anyway, there are two suitable candidates now, and it will be fine to pick one from among them. . ”

”Well, until then, watch them.”

”I will.” McDoug smiled and shook the goblet. ”This wine is good. By the way, I won the bet last time!”

”I remember that most of your books were given away!” Brod shook his head helplessly: ”How many copies have you sold?”

”Should be half?” McDoug thought for a while, and said with a smile, ”I wish to bet.”

”Well, he's yours.” Brod pointed to the open bottle of red wine. After speaking, he picked up the wine bottle and poured himself a small glass.

”Go, go to Gerber together to figure this out.” McDoug tapped the cork with his wand, and it automatically jumped back to the top of the bottle and re-plugged it.

McDoug took up a half bottle of red wine and walked towards the fireplace. Brod followed behind McDoug and disappeared into the fireplace full of green flames.
