Chapter 60: “Harry Evans”

The little accident that had just occurred caused a conflict between Matthew and Hermione, resulting in their disagreement and parting ways.

This left Matthew feeling somewhat remorseful.

He was surprised that a girl like Hermione, who was only eleven years old, had made such remarkable discoveries in just two months of school.

She had even made some observations that he hadnt noticed before.

At the same time, he hoped that Hermione would act more sensibly and not engage in foolish actions.

However, judging from her proactive approach in seeking his advice, her sorting into Ravenclaw, and the influence of the Ravenclaw atmosphere, she seemed less reckless than in the original book.

Perhaps he didnt need to worry too much about her.Follow current novels at novelhall.com)

Lost in his thoughts, Matthew lowered his head and glanced at the picture in the book.

However, the girl who had been depicted with explicit content and exposure had vanished, replaced by a cloud of black mist.

Matthew proceeded to read the following paragraph in a soft voice:

Succubus, an ancient magical creature, once active in Europe and the Middle East

A smudge appeared behind, rendering a few lines completely invisible, causing Matthew to furrow his brow.

is an extremely terrifying demon, often appearing in dreams in the form of beautiful human females, seducing men, impairing their health, and even causing death.

The introduction was brief, consisting of only a few words.

Matthew suddenly felt that borrowing this book might have been a mistake.

He closed the curtains again, picked up the book, and left the History of Magic classroom.

Matthew returned the tattered book to Mrs. Pince in the library, who looked surprised.

Then, he left the library.

As for the cause, process, and identity of the murderer in the incidents of the past two months, Matthew had a rough outline in his mind, so there was no need to search for more information in the library.

After all, the whole incident had nothing to do with him fundamentally.

Hey, Matthew! This time, someone else called out to him.

When Matthew reached the eighth floor, he encountered Neville coming out of the entrance to the Gryffindor Tower and stepping away from an elegant portrait.

Good morning, Neville! Matthew greeted him in return.

Why are you here on the eighth floor? Neville glanced at him, his expression filled with curiosity.

I came to see Professor Flitwick! Matthew casually used his old excuse again.

Oh, Ill go to the Great Hall for breakfast then. Neville nodded.

Just as he was about to descend the stairs and bid Matthew farewell

Hey, Neville! Matthew suddenly called out from behind.

Huh? Neville turned around, looking puzzled. Can you tell me about Evans? Matthew asked curiously.

Evans? What about him? Neville asked, surprised.

Its nothing; Im just a little curious! Matthew replied calmly, carefully choosing his words. The main thing is I want to befriend him, but he seems very introverted

Hes indeed quite introverted, Neville agreed.

Deciding not to head downstairs, Neville joined Matthew by the window on the eighth floor, and they conversed while admiring the scenery outside.

Evans doesnt interact much with us, Neville thoughtfully shared. Whether its during meals, classes, or other activities, he rarely spends time with our group.

For example, yesterday morning, I ran into him on the way to the bathroom in the Gryffindor common room. We were both carrying towels and clothes, and I asked him to join me. You wont believe it, but he got scared and ran away. Its strange for boys to be shy about such things. Its unbelievable Neville said with a baffled expression.

Before, he argued with Ron for some reason before the incident. It ended with him crying, just like a girl Neville continued.

Neville recalled various instances of chatting away and providing Matthew with plenty of information about Evans.

Matthew smiled, feeling certain this time.

Whats the matter, Matthew? Neville looked at the smile on his face, appearing surprised.

Nothing. Matthew quickly shook his head.

Then Ill go have breakfast!

Goodbye! Matthew bid Neville farewell.
