Harry Potter’s Book of Sin

Chapter 209 Two Old People

"Luna, it's a mistake to remember the call of the Absolute Bird when it is dying in reverse order."

"Reverse order?"

"Although they will imitate all the sounds they have heard in their lives when they are dying, they have imitated all the sounds they have heard recently..."

In the library, Maca sat opposite Luna, carefully correcting her mistakes.

In the past few days, in addition to her own research, Maca often helps Luna look at her reading notes about magical creatures during her break.

Luna loves those interesting creatures, and she always finds interesting materials in the library.Although the illustrations and documents are a bit dull and boring, if you really like it, it won't feel so boring.

Seeing that Luna was already working on revising her notes, Maca turned her gaze back to her large pile of manuscripts.

Although he is resting now, in the eyes of others, it is estimated that he is not relaxing at all.After all, who would take those so complicated potions formula calculations as a break?

But just as Maca picked up the quill from the ink bottle and planned to continue to calculate the balance of the formula from the previous calculation formula, he heard a familiar "puff puff" sound from the library door.

"Moody?"

Maca raised his head and looked at the door, and found that it was Mad-Eye Moody who had come, just as he had guessed.

"What is he doing here?" Maca wondered.

In order not to be seen through by the eyeliner lurking in the school, Maca and Dumbledore deliberately did not exchange information with each other.

Therefore, although Dumbledore had verified Moody's identity early in the morning under the reminder of Maca's departure, Maca had no way of knowing this.

Before he discovered the real role played by Barty Jr., his more suspicions were focused on Moody.

But now it seems that Moody's neurotic appearance is really his original character.

Seeing Moody's "suspicious look at everyone" and his magic eye turning around, Maca shook his head secretly.

I'm afraid this time it was only because of Dumbledore's premature intervention that Barty Jr. had no chance to plot against Moody.Otherwise, Moody will definitely still be the first candidate for his hidden identity.

This guy's behavior is too suspicious, so it is difficult to reveal his identity.

Just as Macca thought, Moody had already seen him, and in the glare of Mrs. Pince, the librarian, he walked over again on crutches all the way.

"McLean, come with me to the principal's room..." Moody's magic eye stared at Maca, as if trying to see him through, "Dumbledore has something to look for you."

After that, he stared at Maca again, that face looked very hideous because of the massive scars.

Maca nodded slightly in surprise.

"Luna, let me see what's going on. If it's too late, you can go to the auditorium for dinner first!"

He said to Luna who was opposite, and then carefully sorted out the calculation papers, which signaled that Moody could leave.

"You're in front," Moody said gruffly, "I hate people walking behind me."

"Don't you have a magic eye? There are no blind spots in all directions. It is said that even the invisibility cloak can be seen through. What are you worried about?" Maca looked at the steadily turning blue in Moody's eyes with interest. Lu Yiyan said with a smile.

"I will get old, but it won't." Moody snorted dissatisfiedly. "Your performance at the World Cup was wonderful. I think you understand what I'm talking about."

Maca shook her head and said, "Are you doubting me? Didn't Dumbledore tell you?"

"Albus is very wise, but he is too easy to give trust. In my opinion, this is his shortcoming." Moody unceremoniously criticized the greatest wizard today, as if he were talking about an ordinary wizard. Same as people.

"I still think you are suspicious!" Maca didn't care about his suspicion of himself, but smiled, "Look at you, walking around the castle all day long, and staring at others for a long time. "

"Hmph, as long as I know I'm not suspicious, it's enough." Moody said impatiently.

The two walked side by side, and before long, they came to the stone beast at the entrance of the principal's office.

"Fried centipede legs." Moody said to the stone beast.

Maca and Moody took the escalator together and came to the gate of the principal's office.

"Fried centipede legs? What is that?" Maca grinned. "Did Professor Dumbledore's taste become heavier recently?"

"That's a new dessert from Duke Honey. It tastes good...Would you like some?"

The door opened automatically, and Dumbledore's voice came from inside.

"Uh...thank you, I don't think so..." Maca shook his head decisively as he walked in, "Professor, what happened to me today?"

Running to the principal's office time and time again, Maca was also used to it.No, he was asking, he ran to the armchair next to him and sat down.

Mad-Eye Moody also took a seat on a wooden chair next to Dumbledore's desk, but seeing him sitting on pins and felt, he seemed to be ready to jump up and fight all the time.

"Recently, many things have happened. For example, various cases have increased. There are small ones such as theft, and of course there are also large ones. Just now, several wizards mysteriously disappeared."

As Dumbledore said, the wand waved, and a pile of materials floated in front of Maca.

Maca reached out to take it, flipped it casually, and then nodded.

"I have some clues in a few cases, but..." Maca said in confusion, "Isn't this Cornelius Fudge's job?"

Dumbledore shook his head slightly, and pointed to Maca's hand.

"...Look carefully at the common ground in these cases."

Maca lowered his head, and after tossing and contrasting, suddenly frowned.

"Werewolf?"

The approximate time interval of these cases is 30 days, and the specific date is obviously the night of the full moon.From this, it is not difficult to speculate that these cases may be related to the restless werewolves.

"Claw marks were found in two cases. It is indeed very likely that the werewolf did it." Dumbledore nodded.

"So..." Macafu looked up again and looked at Dumbledore.

"Alastor is a trustworthy partner," Dumbledore said with a smile, "He can help you a lot in your affairs with Tom."

Maca glanced at Moody subconsciously, and then said in a real sense: "But if I want to get his approval, I must use actions to prove my position and ability?"

"That's it," Mad-Eye Moody looked at him with sharp eyes. "Although Albus promised me that I can't eat as a meal, I will use my eyes to judge whether you are in danger. "

Maca reluctantly shrugged and said, "Although I can understand your caution, I have to remind you: The human heart is complicated. Even if there is no such thing as the Imperius Curse, you can't really see through it by seeing it with your own eyes of……"

Having said that, he paused, then looked at Moody's blue eye and added: "Even your magic eye can't penetrate people's hearts, right?"

"Do you still use you to remind me?" Moody glanced at him and said rudely, "Although I can't see through people's hearts, it can at least be a reference...How many cunning bastards do you think I have dealt with?"

I have to say that Moody's life experience can convince many people.After all, not everyone could face Voldemort without fear, and also captured a large number of Death Eaters into Azkaban.

And Maca briefly experienced Moody's keenness. Even though he is old now, his fighting ability must have been greatly reduced, but his rich experience is still difficult to underestimate.

"Of course, the Death Eaters you have captured can fill half of Azkaban. This is a well-known fact." Maca nodded, "I admire it too."

"But you released all the prisoners I had worked so hard to get in." Moody said, giving him an annoyed look.

"Uh, isn't this also a tactic..."

Maca smiled awkwardly, and now he has met the Lord.

"From tomorrow night, you go to find clues every night... If you are sure that the werewolf did it, at least catch me alive." Moody did not continue to tear him off, he paused the wooden crutch in his hand. Said seriously.

Naturally, Maca had no reason not to agree. He had planned to go to Tarino to ask about the latest situation. These cases can also be checked by the way. Anyway, it has nothing to do with Voldemort.

After discussing the case with Moody, he bid farewell to Dumbledore and left the principal's office.

"Albus, you really intend to..."

After Maca left, Moody frowned and looked at Dumbledore.

But Dumbledore shook his head and sighed slightly: "To be honest, I'm not sure if this is the right thing to do, but...we're all getting older, aren't we?"

He raised his head, looked at the portraits of school principals above his head, and then said: "Alastor, you chose to retire at the beginning, isn't it because of this reason?"

"It's a bit powerless," Moody also shook his head, "but anyway, as long as you are alive, the responsibility you should bear is not that you can let go..."

"At least I have to prepare for those kids... If it's Tom..." Dumbledore said, as if he was remembering something again, and gradually he was lost in thought.

At this time, outside of Hogwarts Castle, the sky was still blue, as clear and pure as the hearts of most little wizards.Perhaps what Dumbledore hopes most is that he can live longer so that the children can always maintain this purity?
