Mysterious Walker at Hogwarts

"You imagine that you can be the one who tracks down the mysterious man, or even go one step further, and learn from the mysterious man the skills that will prevent you from being laughed at anymore, right?" Dean continued to question softly.

"Yes, that's true." Quirrell sobbed softly.

He felt that this mysterious traveler was simply his soulmate, and he had a perfect grasp of his psychology at every stage.

"I have to say, your ideas are really naive and arrogant." Dean said with some irony, "Do you think you can control the confrontation with the mysterious man? It's a pity that even at the time when the mysterious man was at his weakest, you were far behind. Not an opponent, but controlled by him." Dean suddenly raised his voice and asked sternly: "Your master is the mysterious man, right?"

"Yes, you are right. Can you let me get rid of his control?" Quirrell raised his head full of desire.

"Unfortunately, I can't. You don't really want to get rid of him now. You haven't gotten the power you crave most from him. How could you give up this opportunity so easily?" Dean's words hit Quirrell's heart.

Dean has now completely put himself into Quirrell's role before coming to this conclusion.

Quirrell now has a completely typical mentality of being both responsible and independent. He wants to gain power from Voldemort, but he doesn't want to be controlled, and he doesn't even want to pay any price. How is this possible?

"Please, help me~" Quirrell did not want to give up this opportunity. Perhaps in his heart, the mysterious Mystery Walker in front of him was already on par with Voldemort - at least enough to compete with Voldemort in his current weak state.

Dean was a little irritated. If he had enough ability, now might really be an opportunity to win Quirrell away from Voldemort - Voldemort was temporarily dormant and unable to control Quirrell, plus Veritaserum and hypnosis. Dual play, Dean really thinks an opportunity like this would be hard to replicate.

It's a pity that he doesn't have that kind of strength now, so he can only watch the opportunity slip away from him.

"Quirinus Quirrell, do you trust me?" Dean pretended to hesitate for a moment before asking seriously.

Although he cannot help Quirrell now, it does not prevent him from completing his mission.

"I trust you without reservation," Quirrell sobbed.

Sure enough, the "Achievement: Quirrell's Trust" in the system was successfully completed with Quirrell's promise.

After accepting the 5 skill points and quickly clicking the lottery button in the system, Dean didn't bother to check the results of the lottery and said to Quirrell: "Then if one day you are willing to truly get rid of the mysterious man's control, you can come again. Find me."

"How can I contact you?" Quirrell immediately asked astutely, fully proving the intelligence of a Ravenclaw.

"Opposite this room there is a tapestry of a troll beating Barnabas silly. If you think about it, draw a mark with three crossed wands under the tapestry, and then I will contact you." Dean thought for a moment and answered. road.

It is not far from the Gryffindor common room. Dean will pass by it almost every day and will never miss any information. In addition, Dumbledore's principal's office is also nearby. If there is any danger, he can also seek help in time; finally, Dean Ann also has a little fun. Quirrell will most likely not hide this contact information from Voldemort. If Voldemort wants to see the "Secret Walker", he must leave a mark under the nose of Dumbledore, whom he fears most. This It must not feel very comfortable.

As for the mark, Dean directly used the mark on the Secret Walker badge. He felt that this was the best way to avoid revealing the secret.

Dean didn't notice a strange look flashing in Quirrell's eyes after hearing this.

"Then if there is anything else, can I contact you in this way?" Quirrell asked cautiously.

"Yes, but not too often. My time is precious." Dean replied, pretending to ponder for a moment.

He understood the subtext behind Quirrell. If he disagreed, it meant that the secret had to be kept from Voldemort, but vice versa.

Dean thought very clearly that Voldemort would definitely question Quirrell about what happened in the Room of Requirement, and he would not even rule out using Legilimency on Quirrell, so he had to leave a little "sweetness" for Voldemort to hide the real secret. stand up.

The reason why Dean has this kind of confidence is because he took the time to check out the skill he just extracted from Quirrell, which is a very interesting spell "Memory Isolation".

Memory isolation: extract a part of the memory and isolate it in a hidden corner of the brain. Unless it is actively released, it will not be read by spells such as Legilimency.

It looks like a mix of Confusion Charm, Occlumency and Memory Extraction Charm to create a spell.

Dean had not found this spell in the magic talent system before, so... this should be Quirrell's own original creation?

"I predicted that you would use a very interesting curse, the 'Memory Isolation Curse'?" Dean asked immediately. If this spell does not come from Voldemort, it seems to be of great use next.

"I was discovered by you..." Quirrell was surprised, but under the influence of Veritaserum he had to tell the truth: "That was a secret I developed secretly while he was sleeping after being possessed by the master. The spell may not be mature yet, but it is enough to help me hide something from my master.”

"What a clever mind." Dean exclaimed sincerely. Wizards who can develop their own magic spells are very impressive. It seems that from the very beginning, Quirrell planned to get free money from Voldemort. Unfortunately, in the end, his strength was not enough, and his cleverness was eliminated. Smart mistake.

"Then I have a question now. How much do you not want the mysterious person to know about what happened tonight?" Dean asked immediately.

"This... is of course up to you to decide." Quirrell replied slyly.

"There is no need to hide my existence, but I'm afraid we can't let him know about our communication about how to help you get rid of the mysterious man, otherwise your life will be at risk." Dean said very impartially, "You can leave the blank in this Fill in by contacting me.”

"But that's not enough! It's impossible to hide this from my master." Quirrell knew very well how meticulous Voldemort was, and the discrepancy in time could not avoid making him suspicious.

"Don't worry, I will tell you the prophecy about the Philosopher's Stone, which is enough to win his trust." Dean said softly, "Tell him that if he wants the Philosopher's Stone, he must wait until after Christmas, and then he can find out the whereabouts of the Philosopher's Stone." ."

"It won't be too long after Christmas, the master can't wait any longer..." Quirrell shouted desperately.

"He will wait patiently." Dean's voice seemed to have soothing magic, and Quirrell's mood gradually calmed down.

"Then I will use the memory isolation spell to isolate everything that happened here according to your request." Quirrell said somewhat flatteringly.

"I can help you." Dean raised the Thunderbird wand.
