v2 Chapter 430： Reliable search girl

Grindelwald's fancy, I went to Hogwarts chapter 430, a reliable search girl

Stephanie's eyes widened because she was serious, her lips were slightly pursed, ignoring her age that didn't match her appearance at all (she was already an adult), the girl at the moment looked like a girl who wanted to prove herself to adults. children.

Sean scratched his head. He really needed someone who could give him more directions for thinking. From the first time he saw Stephanie, the other party was reading a book, and in the next few years, no matter when he met her, There are always a few thick ancient books in the arms of the girl.

Moreover, Sean now has access to the Room of Requirement. There are all kinds of bizarre books in this magical room that exists at Hogwarts to this day. Stephanie has access to it a long time before him, I am afraid Read a lot.

As if worried that Sean didn't believe her, Stephanie also took off her glasses.

The eyes of the dark starry night turned into a dreamy blue in front of Sean's eyes.

As far as Sean knows, when Stephanie's Tong Kong is dark blue, her ability to charm is weak, and her ability to charm women will also be greatly reduced. And when her Tong Kong is black, her charm ability will be greatly improved, and both men and women can take it all - but the charm of the black Tong Kong seems to be suppressed by her magical gold-rimmed glasses.

Of course, this makes no difference to Sean. At first, he couldn't hold back under the gaze of his blue eyes, but now Stephanie can't have any effect on him even with full firepower - [Pride] Naturally looking down on everything, No magic with eyes will work on him.

Then she must have wanted to say something when she suddenly took the initiative to change her childish color.

Sure enough, Stephanie took off her glasses, looked at Sean and said, "My ability to charm comes from my mother, she is a veela, but my mother is not a pure veela."

Sean nodded thoughtfully.

"I don't know who my mother's parents, my grandfather and grandmother, were, but my grandmother was probably a purebred veel, and my grandfather was probably some undiscovered magus."

Magus? It's kind of interesting.

Magus is also a name for special talents among wizards. For example, Tonks is a disguised Magus, and Newt's innate ability to communicate with magical animals is also a Magus.

Stephanie pulled out a book out of nowhere and handed it to Sean.

"This is "Sonnet at the End of the Sea of ​​Fog" I just borrowed from the library today. I haven't read it yet."

Sean flipped through it casually. This is a collection of love poems from the Middle Ages. The words are so sophisticated that they are even a bit obscure.

"Huh?" He looked at each other.

Stephanie took the book again, and quickly flipped through it in front of Sean.

In less than five minutes, the girl had turned to the last page, and she handed the book to Sean again.

"You are free to ask me anything on a page."

This... quantum reading?

Sean took the book in surprise and asked a few random questions.

Stephanie recited everything Sean mentioned in an emotionless, indifferent tone, not a single word was wrong.

"Your memory is innate?" Sean looked at each other in surprise.

Stephanie shook her head gently: "It should be the bloodline inherited from my grandfather, this should also be a kind of magus, but I have not found any relevant records - when my eyes are black, it is the charm inherited from my mother. , and was even strengthened by [Lust]; when my eyes are blue, I can choose to activate this magus of mine."

"As long as I want to, with some magic and mental power, I can remember it, and I don't need to understand the meaning of the sentence itself - although this way of reading is not very meaningful, it provides me with great convenience in terms of memory ."

Hermione should be envious of this ability... Sean thought silently.

On the opposite side, the girl was still talking: "I said this to prove to you that I really have the ability to help you. Of course, I can't read all the books in the Hogwarts Library and the Room of Requirement and understand the meaning. But I should have read quite a few books…”

"It's more than a lot. According to the frequency of your reading, your reading volume is probably dozens of times that of others..." Sean exclaimed.

Stephanie shook her head: "It could have been hundreds of times, but I think it is useless to read without understanding knowledge - of course, some recorded information does not need to be understood."

Sean nodded: "No wonder you said so seriously, you read a lot of books."

"Well, the professors didn't tell me too much, so I thought about it and came to you directly. If you need any help, you can tell me directly - all the books in the Hogwarts Library and the Room of Requirement, I haven't read them all, but I've read the catalogues of all the books."

Looking at the girl who was calm and even exuding some soft air in front of her, an idea suddenly popped into Sean's mind.

Isn't this a computer...

Retrieving mother? !

Of course, it must be a good thing for Stephanie to say so. There are too many books in Hogwarts. Sean thinks that there is a high probability that there are clues to explore, but he alone, even with Hermione and Dai The group of people from Xi and Harry didn't know the year of the monkey and the month of the horse to find out the key information.

Thinking of this, he was not polite, and said directly: "Then I will not dawdle with you, I really need some information now."

Stephanie's eyes flashed with excitement, and then she was well hidden.

"Yeah." The girl nodded.

Sean directly took out the obsession body that he had just placed, and then showed it to Stephanie.

"I got some information from Lockhart's memory. This thing is called Obsession. It should be a very important thing, and it may have existed hundreds of years ago or even thousands of years ago, or in other words, there were similar objects. Do you have an impression of this thing?"

Stephanie got a little closer, her blue eyes scrutinizing the black rhombus like a radar scan.

Then she closed her eyes and her brain started racing.

Sean knowingly did not disturb the other party, waiting quietly for her to open her eyes.

After a while, Stephanie frowned slightly, then opened her beautiful eyes.

"I don't have the name Obsession in my memory..."

Sean was a little disappointed. It seemed that even such a huge collection of books at Hogwarts might not have records of various magical items.

The girl continued: "But I remembered the contents of the catalogs of several books, all of which mentioned black rhombus crystals, but I haven't read these books in detail, so I'm not sure if it's what you're looking for."

Sean immediately came to the spirit: "It doesn't matter, at least it's a clue. Do you remember which books it was?"

Stephanie nodded affirmatively: "Remember, it's all in the forbidden books area. I remember the position of each book on the bookshelf - if Mrs. Pince hadn't switched positions."

"Come on, let's take a look." Sean made a quick decision.

After putting away the obsession again, Sean and Stephanie directly used the authority of the Room of Requirement to open a door in the library.

It was already night, and the most diligent students had already borrowed books and returned to the lounge. The lights in the library had all been turned off, and there was only a faint gleam on the ceiling.

The library was quiet late at night, but Sean knew it all well—he had been in the library several times before he was a teaching assistant.

The same is true for Stephanie next to her. With her reading speed, it is not enough to just issue loan certificates with professors. Obviously, she has done a lot of sneaky things.

"Here—" Stephanie looked around naturally, as if returning to her own home, and then pointed in a direction.

She led Sean towards the target bookshelf and said as she walked, "There are seven books with similar content in total, and it is not difficult to find them. The fifteenth book from the left in the third row on the bookshelf is called "Overview of Magic Items in the Middle World" ", I think it's more likely."

"Remember so clearly..." Sean looked at the other party in surprise.

Stephanie made a bad joke for the first time: "Thanks to my grandfather for falling in love with a veela, and their veela daughter fell in love with a wizard."

Sean did not follow suit, Stephanie did not have any mood swings when she mentioned her parents, as if she was referring to two strangers, and Mr. Ollivander, who was far away in Diagon Alley, never revealed himself. Information about sons and daughters-in-law.

It seems that Stephanie's parents may have simply left a child.

Sean decided not to ask about the other party's family affairs.

Stephanie didn't say much, she led Sean to the bookshelf quickly, counted from left to right to fifteenth, and pulled out a book.

The thick black sheepskin cover has signs of wear and tear, and it looks like a book that has existed for a long time.

Stephanie flipped through the book quickly, and said while flipping back, "If I remember correctly, this book was already in the forbidden area when I entered the school. Ah, found it, this?"

Sean took the book that the other party opened and read it carefully, and shook his head after a while.

"The appearance is indeed somewhat similar, but what is mentioned in this book is the magical creation of a dark wizard. The main function is to spread the plague, which is different from the effect shown by the obsession."

Stephanie nodded: "Then find a copy."

So, in the empty library late at night, two "uninvited guests" flipped through the forbidden book area without hesitation, and Stephanie's description of the books sounded from time to time in the library.

During the period, Filch also took Mrs. Norris to visit the library once, but Sean used a Confusion Charm to deceive the other party—although he did not deceive Mrs. Norris.

But this scrawny cat had a great crush on Sean, and even jumped into Sean's arms while his owner Filch was stunned by the Confusion Curse and let him slap him for a while...

After one person and one cat walked away, Sean looked at Stephanie curiously while cleaning the cat hair on his body.

When Mrs. Norris jumped into Sean's arms, the girl subconsciously retreated a lot.

"Are you allergic to cat hair?"

Stephanie shook her head: "No, I just don't like cats."

"Huh? Can I ask why?" After getting to know each other, Sean talked a lot more casually with each other.

The girl frowned slightly with some doubts: "I don't know, I haven't been injured by cats or felines since I was a child, but I don't have any physical disgust, I just don't like it very much—I never did in Diagon Alley. Will be close to Wonder Zoo."

Sean spread his hands: "It's natural - I also have things that I have never liked since I was a child. For example, on rainy days, when I was one year old in a stroller, I would point to the heavy rain outside the window and say I hate it."

The corners of Stephanie's mouth twitched invisibly, then quickly returned to normal.

"Let's go on, there are two more books."

"Well, let's go."

Saying so, but Sean doesn't hold out much hope anymore.

The five books that are most related to the title and the catalog have been turned through, but they have nothing to do with the obsession.

"This time it's the twenty-first book from the right in the fifth row... Huh?" Stephanie, who was looking for the book, suddenly made a puzzled voice.

"What's wrong?" Sean walked over and glanced at it, and the book titled "Tales of the Greedy Poet" was replaced by another book.

"Mrs. Pince seems to have organized the bookshelf recently, and the positions of the books on this bookshelf have changed." Stephanie said while scanning the bookshelf quickly.

"Then... look for it?" Sean said, although there was little hope, he still didn't want to let go of any possible clues. UU Reading

Although this "Tales of the Greedy Poet" sounds like a collection of strange and strange stories, since the other party has placed it in the forbidden book area, it means that this thing is still valuable for reference - and "The Story of the Poet Bedou" is not returned. Is there any information about the Deathly Hallows?

The two searched the nearby bookshelves, and soon Stephanie called Sean and she found it.

"Tales of the Greedy Poet" was organized by Mrs. Pince on the outermost bookshelf. According to the rules, the books here should be the least dangerous ones in the forbidden area.

The silver-haired girl flipped through the pages quickly, and then handed it to Sean: "This, I think it's very similar."

"Um?"

Sean hurriedly took the book.

"Tales of the Greedy Poet" is a collection of small stories. When Stephanie was looking for it, she told Sean that the reason why this book was placed in the forbidden area was because those small stories were not fables and fairy tales. It's like a dark fairy tale, and even if you read a story more than a few times, you will experience a strong sense of dizziness.

"The Great Poet and the Greedy Snake of Wisdom" - The treasure of darkness condensed by obsession was taken away by the heroic bard, and the serpent of wisdom paid the price for greed.

Seeing the name of the little story, Sean frowned subconsciously. This kind of normal-looking name is generally not a good thing in dark fairy tales...

He glanced quickly, and then Tong Kong shrank slightly.

In the illustration, a bard with an odd smile is holding up a black diamond-shaped crystal.

And obsession body, almost the same! +Bookmark+
