Spotted By Grindelwald And Went To Hogwarts Chapter 430: Reliable search lady


,!

Stephanie's eyes widened because of her seriousness, and her lips were slightly pursed, ignoring her age that did not match her appearance at all (she was already an adult), the girl at this moment looked like a child who wanted to prove herself to adults.

Sean scratched his head. He really needed someone who could give him more direction to think. From the first time he met Stephanie, she was reading a book. In the following years, no matter when he met her, the girl would always hold a few thick ancient books in her arms.

Moreover, Sean now has the authority to the Room of Requirement. This magical room that exists with Hogwarts to this day contains all kinds of weird books. Stephanie has read a lot of them long before he has authority.

As if worried that Sean would not believe her, Stephanie also took off her glasses.

The eyes of the dark starry night turned dreamy light blue in front of Xiao En's eyes.

As far as Sean knows, when Stephanie's pupils are light blue, her charm ability is weak, and her charm ability for women will also drop significantly. And when her pupils are black, the charm ability will be greatly improved, and it can be used by both men and women-but the charm ability of black pupils seems to be suppressed by her pair of magical gold-rimmed glasses.

Of course, it doesn't make any difference to Sean, he couldn't hold on under the gaze of the light blue eyes at first, but now Stephanie can't affect him even with full firepower——[Arrogance] Naturally overlooks everything, and any magic related to eyes will not work on him.

Then she must be trying to say something by suddenly taking the initiative to change the color of her pupils.

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 either."

Shawn nodded thoughtfully.

"I don't know who my mother's parents, that is, my maternal grandfather and grandmother, are, but my maternal grandmother is most likely a purebred Veela, and my maternal grandfather is most likely an undiscovered Magus."

Maggs? This is kind of interesting.

Maggs is also a name for those with 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 took 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, and I haven't read it yet."

Sean casually flipped through it. This is a collection of love poems from the Middle Ages.

"Huh?" He looked at the other party.

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 then asked a few questions casually.

Stephanie recited everything Sean mentioned in a tone of emotionless indifference, without missing a single word.

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

Stephanie shook her head lightly: "It should be the bloodline inherited from my grandfather. This should also be a kind of Magus, but I haven't found any relevant records. When my eyes are black, it is the charm ability inherited from my mother. It is even strengthened by [Lust]; when my eyes are light blue, I can choose to activate this kind of Magus."

"As long as I want to, with some magic and mental power, I can remember it in my memory, and I don't need to understand the meaning of the sentence itself-although this way of reading is of little significance, 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 is 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 a lot of books..."

"It's not just 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: "A hundred times would be fine, but I think it's useless to read without understanding knowledge—of course, some record-like messages don't need to be understood."

Sean nodded: "No wonder you said it 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-I haven't read all the books in the Hogwarts library and the Room of Requirement, but I have read the catalog of all the books."

Looking at the girl in front of him who looked calm and even exuded some softness, an idea suddenly popped into Sean's mind.

Isn't this just a computer...

Search girl? !

Of course, it must be a good thing that Stephanie has said so. Hogwarts has too many books. Sean thinks that there is a high probability that there are clues to be found in them.

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

Stephanie's eyes flashed with joy, and then she hid it well.

"Yeah." The girl nodded.

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

"I got some news from Lockhart's memory. This thing is called the obsession body. It should be a very important thing, and it may have existed hundreds or even thousands of years ago, or in other words, similar items existed. Do you have any impression of this thing?"

Stephanie moved a little closer, her light blue eyes carefully sizing up the black diamond-shaped crystals like a radar scan.

Then she closed her eyes and her brain began to work rapidly.

Sean wisely did not disturb the other party, and quietly waited for her to open her eyes.

A moment later, Stephanie frowned slightly, and then opened her beautiful eyes.

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

Sean is a little disappointed. It seems that even Hogwarts has such a huge collection of books that there may not necessarily be records of various magical items.

The girl continued: "But I remembered the contents of several books, all of which mentioned black diamond-shaped 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 his senses: "It's okay, at least it's a clue, do you remember which books it is?"

Stephanie nodded affirmatively: "Remember, they are all in the restricted section, and I remember the position of each book on the shelf—if Mrs. Pince hadn't changed the position."

"Let's go, let's take a look." Sean made a decisive decision.

Put away the obsessive body 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 hardest-working students had already borrowed books and returned to the lounge. All the lights in the library had been turned off, and there was only a faint glimmer of light on the ceiling.

The library is quiet late at night, but Sean is familiar with the place—he slipped into the library several times when he was not a teaching assistant.

The same is true for Stephanie next to her. With her reading speed, she can't be satisfied just by issuing loan certificates with the professors. Obviously, she has done a lot of sneaking in.

"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, and it is not troublesome to find them. The fifteenth book from the left on the third row on the shelf is called "An Overview of Magic Items in the Middle World". I think it is more likely."

"I 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 for falling in love with a wizard."

Sean did not follow behind, and Stephanie did not have any emotional fluctuations when she mentioned her parents, as if she mentioned two strangers, and Mr. Ollivander, who was far away in Diagon Alley, never disclosed information about his son and daughter-in-law.

From the looks of it, Stephanie's parents may have simply left a child behind.

Shawn 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 the fifteenth, and took out a book.

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

Stephanie quickly flipped through the book, and said while flipping through it: "If I remember correctly, this book was already in the restricted area when I entered school. Hogwarts does not replenish books every year, but it is more durable... Ah, you found it, this one?"

Sean took the opened book and read it carefully, shaking his head after a while.

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

Stephanie nodded: "Then find one."

Thus, in the deserted library late at night, two "uninvited guests" flipped through the restricted area without any scruples, and Stephanie's description of books sounded from time to time in the library.

During the period, Filch took Mrs. Norris to inspect the library once, but Sean used a confusion spell to hide it from him—although he didn't hide it from Mrs. Norris.

But this scrawny cat has a great affection for Sean, and even jumped into Sean's arms while his owner, Filch, was stunned by the Confusion Curse...

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

The girl subconsciously retreated a lot when Mrs. Norris jumped into Sean's arms.

"Are you allergic to cat fur?"

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

"Huh? Can I ask why?" After getting acquainted, Sean talked more casually with the other party.

The girl frowned slightly in doubt: "I don't know, I have never been injured by cats or feline creatures since I was a child, but I don't have any physical dislike, just a simple dislike - I never get close to the Wonderful Zoo in Diagon Alley."

Shawn spread his hands: "Naturally - I also have things that I have never liked since I was a child, such as rainy days. When I was sitting in a stroller when I was one year old, I would point to the heavy rain outside the window and say I hated it."

The corners of Stephanie's mouth raised slightly, and then quickly returned to its original shape.

"Let's continue, there are two more books."

"Well, let's go."

That's what I said, but Sean didn't have much hope.

The five books that are most related to the book title and table of contents have been read, but none of them have anything 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 a book suddenly made a puzzled voice.

"What's the matter?" Sean walked over to take a look, and the book called "The Tales of the Greedy Poet" was replaced by another book.

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

"Then... let's look for it?" Sean said, although the hope was slim, he still didn't want to let go of any possible clues.

Although this "The Tales of the Greedy Poet" sounds like a collection of weird stories, since the other party put it in the restricted area, it shows that this thing is still of reference value-and "The Tales of Beedle the Poet" also contains information about the Deathly Hallows.

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

"The Tales of the Greedy Poet" was sorted by Mrs. Pince on the outermost bookshelf. According to the rules, the books here should be the least dangerous ones in the restricted area~IndoMTL.com~ The silver-haired girl flipped through it quickly, and then handed it to Sean: "This one, I think it's very similar."

"Huh?"

Sean quickly took the books.

"The Tales of the Greedy Poet" is made up of small stories. Stephanie told Sean when she was looking for it. The reason why this book was put in the restricted area was because those small stories were not fables and fairy tales, but stories similar to dark fairy tales. Even, if you read a story more than once, you would feel 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 snake of wisdom paid the price because of greed.

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

He glanced quickly, and then his pupils shrank slightly.

In the illustration, a bard with a strange smile is holding a black rhomboid crystal.

Almost the same as the obsessive body!
