Harry Potter’s Book of Sin
Chapter 433 Zoe and Joshua
( ) "what--"
"...I really don't know... It is impossible for me to see the contents of those files before the confidentiality level is lowered..."
"Don't... don't... uh!"
A heart-wrenching scream sounded continuously from the next room, one after another, as if to tear his throat.Joshua hugged his head in a corner of the room, covering his ears hard, but the sound was still able to penetrate all obstructions and penetrate deeply into his cochlea.
Joshua, who has been punished for many years, shrank and shrank almost when he heard the painful howls.Even if it is not him who is suffering at this moment, he seems to feel the same.
That kind of mental and physical torture that can't even faint, must be a heart-stirring curse—Joshua knew it must be that.
For a long time, probably because the "master" didn't want the woman to become mentally disordered because of the pain, the screams finally stopped.
As the door of the next room closed again after a bang, the silence was restored again.
Yes, when Joshua accidentally went out, he was so unfortunately encountered by the silent person-he was captured by his former companions and returned to the front of his master, and what awaited him was once more than the woman just now. Even more terrible torture and punishment.
The Silent One's ability to withstand the Heart Drilling Curse is stronger than that of ordinary wizards.Perhaps it is because of physique, or perhaps because of the patience brought by countless repetitions.But whatever the reason, this will only cause Joshua to endure more and longer intense pain.
"...Ah, is it wrong to betray the master?" Joshua fell on the floor, thinking slightly, "Even if you are abandoned, you should not betray your master...not to mention it. Ask that person to remove the imprint that the master gave me... Master... is angry..."
"Crack—"
When he was going to sleep in a daze, he suddenly heard the sound of the door lock being opened.Without hesitation, he immediately got up again and drew back into the corner of the room again.
"Master, don't...I have told you everything...really..."
"Bring him out!"
The black robe wizard had already taken off his hood at this time.It can be seen that hiding under his hood is an old face covered with wrinkles.
The messy white beard is as conspicuous as the white hair, and there is a pair of glasses on the bridge of the nose, but the physique does not look like ordinary old people's thinness, and looks very strong.
If I have to say, in fact, this old wizard is so similar to Dumbledore's brother Aberforth.But the biggest difference between the two lies in the eyes.
In the depths of the old man's black pupils, there seemed to be some sickness and madness hidden.
Upon his order, a silent person who followed him immediately walked into the room and dragged out Joshua, who dared not resist at all.
He clenched Joshua's wrist tightly with one hand, followed the old wizard step by step, and followed the master to the door of the next room.
The old wizard reached out to unlock the curse on the door, then turned the doorknob to open the door again.
"Throw him in--" the old man snorted coldly. "The room in this stronghold is a bit small, but it can't be wasted for you...you just stay with that stupid girl!"
The silent man behind him faithfully carried out the order of the old wizard and kept Joshua into the room.But just as the old wizard was about to close the door, he paused for a while.
"Joshua," the old wizard said, looking at him, "if you still want to return to our big family, just persuade that girl to cooperate well, understand?"
Then he closed the door again without waiting for Joshua to reply.
"Say, persuade?" Joshua murmured, lying on the floor, "How to convince? What should I say...how should I do..."
When he was at a loss for what to do, he heard a weak and slight voice ringing from behind him.
"...Don't waste your effort."
Joshua quickly turned over and looked back. Not far behind him, the woman who described the haggard fell on the floor and looked at herself with half-dangling eyes.
"What?" He subconsciously said.
"I mean... I really don't know anything..."
After that, the woman closed her eyes slightly, obviously not wanting to say it a third time.
She was Zoe who was kidnapped by the old man from Woolworth Building, a small copywriter who was unfortunately involved in this dispute.
Although she is in a low position, she is not stupid.She knew that the torture of that nasty old man had just begun!
That's a curse!Even the top Auror may not be able to hide how many secrets under that curse, how can she be able to hold it, a girl who has just graduated from Ifamoni for less than two years?
But no matter what she said, the other party wouldn't believe it—Zoe, who knew something about those frenzied dark wizards, was very clear in his heart.
Because Joshua didn't know what to say, and Zoe wanted to take a good rest, the room was quiet again for a while.
To be honest, Zoe is indeed a pretty girl.
The delicate and white skin, the black and smooth long hair, the long eyelashes, and the good figure exude a soft and charming atmosphere.Even if she looked haggard because of the torture just now, it seemed to add a bit of delicate feeling to her.
Even Joshua, who is somewhat uncomfortable with the opposite sex, couldn't help but look at her a few more times.
Because of growing up in a special environment, the girls living around Joshua can't dress up, let alone make-up.
After all, they are almost all children raised by the old wizard. Although the other party still values these "experimental subjects" very much, even if they are biased, they are very attentive to their education.
But if you want an old man who can only study magic and take care of his clothes, it is obviously embarrassing him.
So, when Joshua saw Abigail, the girl that Maca took to the shed, he was secretly surprised.But the woman in front of her is undoubtedly even more caring.
After a long time, Joshua couldn't help but moved his body, and made a squeaky sound.
"... Are you... awake?" he asked cautiously.
Zoe opened his heavy eyelids and glanced at him feebly, followed by a self-deprecating smile.
"Don't stare at me, coward—" she said perfunctorily, "My name is Zoe...and, don't just talk to me, stay away from me..."
"I, my name is—"
"Your name is Joshua, I know!" Zoe immediately interrupted him, "Didn't I say don't talk casually?"
She said this weakly, obviously because she hadn't recovered her strength.But the rejection contained in the words is sonorous and powerful.
Joshua opened his mouth again, only to realize that he dared not say anything, so he closed his mouth again and became silent again.
Perhaps because of seeing such a beautiful opposite sex for the first time, Joshua's heart became more and more confused.In fact, he really wanted to say a few more words to Zoe-he could say anything, but he couldn't speak anymore.
In this world, some things are so funny.At this moment, Joshua was like a little boy who had met the beautiful big sister of the house, and his heartstrings were touched inadvertently.
If Maca was here now, he would have to sigh for it.The so-called "power of love" hidden deep underground and located in the locked room in the Department of Mysteries of the Ministry of Magic, indeed, as Dumbledore said, contained inexplicable power.
This kind of power can instantly suppress the fear, gloom, and even hatred that has been tortured by the dark wizard for more than ten years.
Although the word "love" is mentioned, Maca always feels quite awkward, but it is powerful that he cannot deny and ignore.
In order to protect her children, Harry’s mother Lily can use this spiritual power to cast the ancient love spell, which will reflect the death curse that is shot at Harry; and Joshua in front of him is in such a wonderful way. Under the power of, there is actually a faint desire to try to break free from the shackles of childhood.
"... Zoe, Zoe... Do you... want to escape?" Joshua's voice trembled slightly, and said hesitantly, "I... can help you."
"What?" Zoe opened his eyes suddenly and stared at him hesitantly, "How can I help?"
Her genius for panning and mindfulness made her vaguely understand that although Joshua was a little hesitant and vague, the thoughts contained therein seemed to be real.
"Master... he thought that I didn't have the brand mark, so I couldn't use my power..." Joshua lowered his head timidly, and whispered, "But I think I should... still use..."
As he said, his whole body shook suddenly, and a black mist instantly diffused from his body.
"I'll take you out to find that person..." Joshua muttered as if talking to himself, "Yes, look for that person! That person is terribly strong and will definitely help us escape far away." It's open……"
"...'That person'?" Zoe stared at him closely, "Who is'that person'?"
"I... he seems to be... McLean..." The black mist around Joshua gradually became denser and denser, and his voice became increasingly blurred, "I... That person...find him..."
In just a moment, the majestic black mist almost enveloped most of the room. Zoe, who dared not touch the black mist, reluctantly supported the floor and pushed hard into the corner of the room.
But at this moment, the door of the room was opened with a "clang" from the outside, and the two silent people rushed toward Joshua's place in the middle of the room.
"Huh... I wanted to see if I could get some truth out of this little girl's mouth, but I didn't expect... there would be unexpected gains..."
