v2 Chapter 442: 【Fly】and 【Dove】

Popular recommendation:

After finding out so much information, and at the same time giving a most reasonable guess, Sean thought this was Stephanie's limit, but she didn't expect that she would have new clues.

The silver-haired girl wasn't trying to make a fool of herself. She directly spread out the parchment she took out. This was also a torn page from a certain book, but it was more worn and older.

"Have you heard of the Nott family?"

Hermione nodded immediately: "The Nott family, mentioned in the infamous "Pure-Blood Guide", is one of the pure-blood families - I remember that there was a very cold guy in Slytherin, who was Norte. The special family's name is Theodore Nott."

Sean nodded too, not only that, but he knew more.

The Slytherin boy, Theodore Nott, was a very thin, frail guy who always had a very indifferent face, showing little disgust, much less pleasure .

In addition, although Theodore Nott is a pure-blood supremacist, he has not joined Malfoy's team, whether it is a small team in between or a large group now.

Theodore Nott is a bit like a lone wolf in Slytherin. He travels alone and never joins any group. There are probably only a few people who can be called his friends.

The reason Sean knew this man so well was because Theodore Nott's father, Old Nott, was a Death Eater. When he was at Malfoy Manor, the other party huddled in his seat in a black cloak.

For this kind of person, Sean has investigated his personal information and family information.

However, it may be the reason why Voldemort did not gain momentum. Although old Nott became a Death Eater, his son Theodore did not seem to understand the group of Death Eaters.

He frowned: "It has something to do with the Nott family?"

Stephanie nodded: "To be precise, it has something to do with the Knott family in the past - you should know that in the UK, many of the so-called pure-blood families are actually not families that have been handed down for thousands of years, and many families are actually other countries. The branch of the pure blood family gradually developed, of course, when the main family fell, the branch became the only symbol of the family."

Sean nodded. For example, the British pure-blooded Rosier family came from the French Rosier family. The "chicken" Evan Rosier used by Sean to kill the chickens as an example is from the British Rozier family, while the current principal of Nurmengard, Vita Rozier, belongs to the French Rozier family.

"The Nott family is not a pure-blood family born in the United Kingdom. I have checked a lot of information, and there is definite evidence that the Nott family is a branch of a foreign pure-blood family that came to the United Kingdom."

Daisy asked suspiciously, "But what does the Nott family have to do with the clues you just mentioned? Could it be that the ancestor of the Nott family is actually one of the characters represented by the animals in the nursery rhyme?"

Stephanie nodded: "Accurately, it's involved, look at this—"

Several people looked at the parchment. A crooked painting was recorded on the old withered yellow paper. The paint had already peeled off. From the way of painting, it seemed to be from the ancient Greek school.

In the picture, a middle-aged man dressed in odd clothes is opening his eyes wide, rubbing his hands back and forth. In front of him is a mass of indiscernible shape, which seems to be some kind of treasure. Beside the man, a wizard in luxurious clothes was smiling and saying something.

At the bottom of the illustration, there is a paragraph of text.

"The owner of Nott's house welcomes a brand new guest. This guest seems to be from the misty land, with greed and alertness in his big eyes. The guest brought treasures in the mist to the Nott's house. Patriarch, he intends to trade treasures for a place where he can settle down."

"The owner of the Nott family shrewdly saw the value of the treasure. He accepted it readily, and provided the guest with a place to live and live, and even divided part of the family's property to the other party."

"The two have reached a long-term trading relationship, and the Nott family has used the mist treasure brought back by this person to expand their power frantically - but, the treasure in the mist also seems to have hidden dangers."

"One day, Nott, who has become the famous family head in the city, suddenly went crazy. He completely lost his mind and was holding a pure black book in his hand."

"The Nott's house collapsed, and the guest in the mist lost a place to shelter him. He took the black book and the Nott's legacy with him, and set off again to find a new home."

"Oh—by the way, the Knots asked the guest's name, and he called himself 'Mr. Spectator Who Can't Be Duped'."

At the end of the text, several people frowned in unison.

"The fog and the black book..." Sean pondered, "There is indeed a high degree of correlation..."

Stephanie pointed to the 'Mr. Spectator Who Can't Be Duped' on the parchment and said, "And this..."

Sean was taken aback: "Audience, flies..."

When [Fly] is used as a noun, it means a fly, and if it is used as an adjective, it can be understood as [clever; not fooled; fashionable and charming] and so on.

"This person, was the [Fly] who was present the whole time?!" Hermione covered her mouth, "He witnessed all this and came out of the blurred illusion. At the same time, he brought out the story "The Poet and the Greedy" "Snake of Wisdom"!"

Sean let out a long breath: "Even, he's probably the author of the book."

Stephanie listened to their discussion quietly, and when it was almost time, she took out a copied picture.

"You have also reasoned out before that eight species of birds and seven culprits are one number apart, and a pigeon or a lark may be the only innocent one among them. In fact, it is indeed very likely that this 'Mr. Spectator who will not be fooled' No one knows where he went after the Nott family fell apart."

"I searched all the information I could find, including family histories of various families, etc., and found no trace of this person. The only exception is this-"

Sean looked over after hearing the words, and then Tong Kong shrank a little. The copied picture was engraved with a family badge, and the badge was a dove soaring.

"A friend of my grandfather once discovered a site in the wild, where there may have been a large and small family for thousands of years, and 'Mr. Audience who will not be fooled' appeared in the history of that family, but only There are only a few numbers, and finally it was mentioned that this person and the family at the time had joined forces to resist the attack, but it was unsuccessful, the family was completely destroyed, and this person was completely lost."

"And that family's crest is the dove."

Sean thought of many things at once: "From the previous records, he was just seeking a shelter. When the Nott family was destroyed, he didn't seem to help the Nott family but ran away directly - but according to the In the broken family history seen by Mr. Ollivander's friends, he and [Pigeon] resisted the attacking forces..."

Hermione's smart brain worked quickly, and she said a little excitedly: "The animals that appear in the nursery rhyme, [Fly] and [Dove] are both innocent witnesses, but because the poet has mastered the part of Death and Eros. Power, they can't leave the truth clearly, they can only write a book euphemistically."

The more she spoke, the faster she spoke, and all of them were thrown out like a cannonball: "The innocent escaped from the blurred illusion, on the one hand to spread the truth, and on the other hand to avoid the gaze of the poet - but the poet may have noticed. [Fly] and [Pigeon] anomalies."

"This can also explain why [Fly] has been looking for shelter after returning from the foggy land, and it is likely that the force sent by the poet to destroy the [Pigeon] family is."

Sean said solemnly: "It makes sense, and based on the current clues, this is the most likely guess."

Stephanie also nodded: "I have repeatedly confirmed the authenticity and age of the information, and there is no trace of forgery. This history does indeed exist, at least the [Fly] and [Pigeon], they really existed. "

"Then our starting point is..."

Several people looked at each other and said in their voices, "The Nott family!"

Sean clenched his fist with his left hand and smashed the palm of his right hand: "Although family separation will lead to the loss of a lot of family history, if the Nott family has existed from that era to the present, then they have a high probability of retaining a lot of things that were brought out from the main family. , it may be secret information, or it may be some kind of magical creation, and maybe there is information about that [fly]..."

Hermione also nodded: "We at least found an entry point that is close to Chi Chi. The only trouble is that Theodore Nott may not be very good at fooling around..."

Sean continued: "Try it, I will use all the power I can use to gain Theodore Nott's trust, Malfoy can at least talk to him..."

Of course, starting from Theodore Nutter, a classmate of the same grade, is also helpless. The best way is definitely to ask the owner of the Nott family, that is, old Nott.

If it was Sean two years ago, there would be no problem, but now, Old Nott has returned to Voldemort's arms, and the only Death Eaters he can manipulate are Barty Crouch Jr. Come to Strange.

If Sean rashly went to see Old Nott, it is very likely that Voldemort noticed something, and the returnees might also infer something from this, which Sean absolutely did not want to see.

"Let's start with Theodore Nott—" Sean decided.

Of course, he still didn't say a word.

If Sean can't gain the trust of Theodore Nott through normal means to obtain the secrets of the Nott family, then he may have to take some less legal ways.

The Imperius Curse is not realistic. This unforgivable curse that has no solution is very bad behavior on campus. There may be no taboo when dealing with the enemy Sean. Forgiveness spell, that's a bit too much.

Legilimency without side effects might be a better option... Sean thought silently.

Although Stephanie's arrival today was a bit awkward at first, the information she brought was amazing and effective, and Sean's embarrassment caused by Ella's gluttony was relieved a lot - but the little guy's summer homework cannot be reduced.

The few people who have been unable to find the thread of the mystery finally found a real entry point, and their emotions were also high.

After discussing some details, several people fully enjoyed the afternoon tea prepared by Sean.

The mystery that has plagued them for a long time has finally found an entry point, and the corner representing the truth may be opened. Although a few people are not sure, and even all their thoughts so far are speculation and reasoning, their mood is still relaxed. Less, coupled with delicious desserts, the atmosphere in the parlor has become a lot more relaxed.

However, the relaxed atmosphere did not last long.

When the business is over and the desserts are almost finished, the atmosphere begins to quietly change again.

Everyone has not forgotten that scene in the yard.

Sean ate the last pudding as slowly as possible. He regretted that he didn't prepare afternoon tea for ten people.

Now there is no excuse for serious business, this is the same room, isn't it killing my life...

Just when Sean was struggling, Stephanie glanced at the time and stood up.

"It's all over, it's getting late, Diagon Alley has a curfew now, and if you go back late, you'll have to spend the night outside—"

Hiss, so considerate!

Sean almost stood up with grateful eyes: "Ah, is this going?"

Stephanie glanced at Sean, she could see the boy's relaxed expression.

The silver-haired girl smiled faintly: "Yes, thank you for your hospitality today, Sean-Daisy, Hermione, it's a pleasure to meet you, and I look forward to seeing you next time."

"Oh, I left so early... I'll send you off." Sean also laughed.

Behind her, Hermione was still sitting a little hesitant. Stephanie had already left, so do you want to leave?

If she doesn't go, she seems to be very ignorant and impolite, and Stephanie has shown her understanding side. She is already behind, so why should she rely on it?

But, if you leave... what if Stephanie comes back after a while?

There are so many reasons, not least that the curfew in Diagon Alley offers all sorts of legitimate excuses.

At that time, wouldn't she have to spend the night at Sean's house? !

Just as Hermione hesitated and Daisy was about to speak, the bell for the private party rang.

Sean walked over. This living room was built for privacy. Of course, the voices of the outside world could not be ignored, so Sean asked his father to install a talker.

The mother's voice came from the intercom: "Sean, didn't you bother you? But you have to come out. Professor McGonagall from your school is in the living room now."

Why is Professor McGonagall here suddenly? Sean and a few girls looked at each other in surprise.

"Okay, we're out."

When a few people walked out of the living room and came to the living room, sure enough, the serious professor of Transfiguration was sitting on the sofa.

"Oh, Sean, come to interrupt—" Professor McGonagall thanked Mrs. Wallup for her black tea, and she pushed up her glasses and stood up.
