Mysterious Walker at Hogwarts

Chapter 73 The Mystery of Snape

"When you were just one year old, one day he came back very late and seemed very nervous. He said that he had a very important job to do, which would probably take a lot of time... Then he disappeared and never came back. ."

Mrs. Thomas covered her face with her hands, her shoulders trembling and she sobbed softly.

"Missing? You told me that he abandoned us." Dean asked, raising his voice.

"It's been ten years and there's been no news from him..." Mrs. Thomas said with a hint of resentment in her tone.

"Shortly after my biological father disappeared, you married——him?" Dean was a little unbelievable. Considering the age difference between him and his twin siblings, this time was too tight, right?

"What can I do?" Mrs. Thomas spread her hands helplessly, "In order to marry your father, I broke off the relationship with your grandparents - they are all antiques and cannot accept me marrying a mixed-race person with oriental ancestry - —You were so young at the time, and I had no financial resources. Thomas happened to appear suddenly and he was able to accept me..."

Mrs. Thomas calmed down her mood after saying this, and then continued: "At least he fulfilled his promise to me. He is good to you, right?"

"Yes, he is even better to me than Fianna, Daniel and Knightley, and I am very grateful for that." Dean said seriously.

Mrs. Thomas was obviously relieved: "That's all I can tell you..."

"No, this is far from enough." Dean refused to let go of every detail. He hadn't gotten the information he wanted yet. "Do you know what my biological father's job is?"

"I... don't know." There was a daze on Mrs. Thomas's face - the expression was like being under a forgetting spell.

Dean's heart sank when he saw this. Sure enough, it made sense that Mrs. Thomas had never mentioned her biological father. Her memory must have been modified, and she didn't know if it was the biological father.

Dean suddenly had the urge to dig out more information about his biological father from Mrs. Thomas. Maybe he should use Legilimency on her?

If the memory of the biological father was merely altered, it is entirely possible that Legilimency could unearth the truth.

Of course, this ridiculous idea only flashed through Dean's mind. In any case, he would not use magic spells on his relatives.

"Then was there anything unusual when you got along with my biological father?" Dean asked relentlessly.

"There was a period of time after we got married. He often came back very late, or simply didn't come home for several days. He looked very tired every time he came back - I don't know if this is what you call abnormal." Thomas The wife tried to remember.

Yes, of course!Dean asked again: "Then - does he have any friends or is he closely associated with anyone?"

The dazed look returned to Mrs. Thomas's face, and an awkward silence fell in the room.

At this moment, several fragments of fragments of illusion appeared in front of Dean's eyes, and his heart moved. This was the feeling that the "prophetic illusion" ability brought by Prokos's robe was automatically activated.

In these sporadic fragments of vision, Dean saw the adult version of himself - he could conclude that it was his biological father - chatting, walking, and getting married with the young Mrs. Thomas... and then... I have a lovely child.

Dean couldn't help but burst into tears. Could it be that Prokos' robe connected with his mind and allowed him to relive his parents' love story in the form of a prophetic vision?

Suddenly, Dean's expression froze, and he saw an incredible scene: his biological father was talking in a low voice on a dark street corner with a man covered in a cloak.

When the man in the cloak inadvertently raised his head, Dean felt his breath freeze. That man turned out to be Snape!

Severus Snape!

He turned out to be an old acquaintance of his biological father?No wonder he views himself as efficacious, even a little too good!

Dean almost immediately concluded that Snape must have done something. It seemed that more clues about his biological father needed to be dug out from Snape.

This was a difficult task for Dean. No matter how kind Snape was to him, he might not be willing to tell him about his relationship with his biological father, Brian Shaw - otherwise Snape would have done so already.

Just when Dean was thinking about how to get something out of Snape, there was a bang, and a fat owl wrapped in the wind and snow crashed in from the window.

"Owl? Is it delivering a letter to you again?" Mrs. Thomas exclaimed.

Dean noticed that the fat owl dropped a large sheepskin envelope at him - it was obviously different from the letter from Hogwarts. His heart sank and he quickly said to Mrs. Thomas: "Mom, you are tired today. Okay, let me handle the rest."

"Are you okay?" Mrs. Thomas asked a little worriedly. She still seemed to have not gotten over the memories of the past.

Dean picked up the envelope and handed it to his mother with a reassuring smile.

After Mrs. Thomas left in a daze, Dean suppressed his pounding heart, opened the envelope and pulled out the letter inside - he had recognized the emblem of the Ministry of Magic of Great Britain on the envelope.

"Dear Mr. Thomas: We have received information that you cast the Legilimency Charm in front of a Muggle in a Muggle neighborhood at 43:[-] tonight. This behavior seriously violated the "Regulations on the Future" The Reasonable Restraint of Adult Wizards Act. The Ministry of Magic will send a representative to your residence shortly.

We regret to inform you that you must go to the Ministry of Magic at nine o'clock in the morning on December 12th for trial.

Hope you take care.

Yours faithfully, Mafalda Hopkirk Ministry of Magic and the Abuse of Magic."

Dean was stunned after reading the letter. When did he use Legilimency?Could it be that... what he just saw was not a "prophetic vision", but a memory he read from Mrs. Thomas's mind after subconsciously using Legilimency?

This is simply horrible!

Dean looked at his hands in disbelief. The three wands were lying quietly in the dragon skin bag at this time. The "wandless casting" skill in the system was still not activated, which meant that it was impossible for him to use Legilimency.

Could someone be setting him up?Dean couldn't help but laugh. Who would frame an 11-year-old wizard?

There is only one explanation. There is something wrong with the Ministry of Magic's traces again. Just like during the summer vacation, he borrowed Mundungus's wand to practice spells throughout the holiday, but did not receive any warning - all of them were remembered by Mundung. On Gus' head - same.

Thinking of this, Dean couldn't help but relax. As long as he had enough evidence to prove that he did not use Legilimency, the Ministry of Magic should not make it difficult for him. After all, he is just a small person.

At this moment, there was a sudden bang in the yard, and Dean immediately realized that someone was apparating, and he immediately rushed down without thinking.
