Harry Potter’s Book of Sin

Chapter 1255: Daughter Or Maid

When Vanessa, who was waiting at Knott's house, heard Maca's voice from behind, her expression was undoubtedly wonderful.Not only did she not expect that Maca would come back so soon, but also that Maca would find her directly.

why?He obviously didn't care about it at all, and he didn't even reveal the specific whereabouts of his daughter.But this McLean actually...

In this world, can the gap between two people really be so big?

The weather now has gradually entered late spring, and the temperature has long been not as cold as the previous months.But at this moment, Vanessa only felt a chill in the air that was sucked into her lungs.

For a while, she even dared not look back.

"McLean... Sir? You—"

"Mrs. Parkinson."

While speaking to interrupt the other party's words, Maca did not stare at Vanessa's back.He just tilted his head slightly and looked over the other side's head to the old streets outside the window.

The creeper on the opposite side of the red brick wall grows very luxuriantly, in the afternoon sun, like a pair of tender green palms holding the light.Just looking at it like this can make people feel more relaxed.

Of course, taking it along can also smooth out the annoyance and irritation in his chest a little bit.

"...Madam," he said calmly, "I have to say, in fact, I am not absolutely disgusted with some'deceiving' others. However, it is based on the premise that I can successfully deceive everyone. Of...understand?"

"As the saying goes, when no one knows what the truth is, what is false is true."

Having said that, Maca slightly paused, and Maca shrugged:

"But this time, your deception to me clearly failed."

Upon hearing this, Vanessa's face changed slightly, and she couldn't help whispering:

"I did not lie to you."

"Look," Maca shook his head, "Actually, you are not good at lying... Okay, tell me! Who owns the clue to the time converter... Is it the owner of this house? "

On the other side, Vanessa, who was sitting at the table with her back facing Maca, couldn't help being silent for a while.After a while, she nodded.

The magical power of Maca McLean has surpassed her imagination.And in front of such a powerful wizard, no matter how persistently resisting it, it's probably meaningless, right?

"Yes," she said softly after all, "this is Auston Knott's home... Based on what I heard from the black market before, he probably knows the time converter news... even Own one directly."

"Nott?"

Maca suddenly felt that the surname was a bit familiar, and when he thought about it carefully, he raised his eyebrows quickly.

"Oh, is it the Knot family, one of the twenty-eight families?"

"Well," Vanessa replied, and then added, "I have asked before, although he does not have a time converter himself, but he does know who has it. About twenty minutes ago, he went to find ."

It is always good to have a clue.

From the very beginning, the purpose of Maca was to find a time converter. As for who got it from, it seems not so important.

"Are these the Jin Jialong you promised to Knot?"

Under the silent gaze of the little girl Joey, Maca paced up to the coffee table by the window, and then saw the stacks of gold coins stacked on top.

Perhaps it was because of the discovery that Maca did not pursue her fault too much, Vanessa was finally secretly relieved now.To Maca's casual question, she immediately replied:

"No, it's only half... Nott asked for a double."

"Then you promised?" Maca casually glanced at Jin Jialong on the coffee table, and said quite meaningfully, "Unexpectedly, you are quite'generous'?"

It's just a few dozen gold gallons, even if it doubles, it's less than a hundred gallons.Just before this point, if you say more than less than less, you can buy five unicorn horn shells on the black market at most.

However, if it is only used as an "intermediary fee" to find a time converter, it is actually barely enough-well, of course it means that it is doubled.

Regarding Maca's teasing, Vanessa nowadays didn't dare to argue about anything, so she could only shut her mouth and tacitly agreed.To be honest, she is already regretting it now. How good would it be to tell Nott directly if she knew it?

There is no doubt that McLean's favor is not so good!

On the other side, Maca, who was standing not far away from Vanessa, felt a little boring when she saw her not talking.In addition, the affairs of Luna and Delphi were still lingering in Maca's heart, which made him involuntarily sigh lightly, and then cast his eyes to the world outside the window again.

But at this moment, Joey, who has been pursing his mouth and staring at him since just now, seemed to finally be unable to help but speak:

"Sir...you...you can't just break into someone else's home."

It seemed that he wanted to blame Maca, but he didn't dare to speak loudly because he was afraid of life. Maca's eyes looked quite cute when he looked back.

What I have to say... Yes, that look actually looks like Ginny when she was a child, and she always showed timidity when she saw outsiders.

"Oh," Maca smiled, "Indeed, I think you are right. I'm a bit rude."

Seeing Maca very decisively admit his mistakes, Joey seemed a little shy instead.But when her cheeks were slightly red, she said very seriously:

"The most important thing is that you will be blamed by the Patriarch... and the Young Master too."

"Blam me?" Maca continued with a smile, "Oh, I didn't expect that you were still worried about me? It's okay, I don't think they will blame me, you can rest assured that.

But before the words finished, Joey shook his head immediately and whispered:

"No, they will blame me, but I accidentally let you in... Patriarch is terribly angry, and then I have to do a lot of extra work to calm him down."

"Ok?"

Upon hearing this, Vanessa, who was sitting aside, finally gave Joey a strange look.

"Aren't you Knott's daughter? How does it sound... but more like a servant?"

And Vanessa's words made Maca frowned.

"daughter?"

If Feifan Nasha said it, Maca would never have thought that this little girl was actually the child of the owner-raising her daughter as a servant. Is there such a family?

But thinking about it, Maca was stunned suddenly, and then said to Joey:

"Wait—isn't the'Young Master' you just mentioned called'Theodore'?"

"Yes, yes," Joey nodded when he heard the name, "Master's name is Theodore, Theodore Knott... Sir, do you know our young master?"

"Is it really him?"

Maca didn't answer Joey's question right away, because he was still thinking about the "Theodore" at the moment.

In fact, this Theodore was still his classmate, and he enrolled in Hogwarts in the same class.Only after the opponent was assigned to Slytherin, there was almost no intersection between the two.

He only heard occasionally that the relationship between that guy and Malfoy seemed pretty good.

And just because Maca and Theodore are not familiar, when he mentioned the Knot family earlier, he could not even remember this "peer".It wasn't until Joey mentioned it again that he suddenly remembered that there was such a person.

But it must be said that Theodore's brain is obviously still quite good, which can prevent Maca from paying attention to himself, which is enough to prove that the guy is a so-called "smart man".

However, based on what Joey said, this "smart man"... doesn't seem to be a good thing either.You know, this is his sister!

"I remember, Old Knott used to be a Death Eater?"

With this sentence, Maca turned her head to look at Vanessa and asked, after all, Joey might not know such a thing yet.After Vanessa heard it, she quickly gave an affirmative answer.

"Yes," she said, "he was a Death Eater and he did a lot for Voldemort."

"Is it still a fish that slipped through the net?" Maca thoughtfully, "but then... he should have been in Azkaban for more than ten years, right?"

After thinking about it this way, he couldn't help looking at Joey again, and then said:

"You grew up and lived with Theodore?"

"And Amanda," Joey nodded slightly, before adding, "But then, before the lord returned, Amanda left suddenly."

Is it old Knot's maid and lover or something?Actually Joey's biological mother?

The brain replenishes the brain replenishes, although the truth is very likely this is indeed the case, but Maca can't be concluded.But let's not mention anything else, at least after the immediate troubles are resolved, the old Knott will definitely be sent back to Azkaban.

Maca didn't ask any more questions, he just recorded the matter in his mind for the time being, and then passed it back to Sirius or Kingsley.

However, the reason why he did not continue to question for the time being, was mainly the magic wave that suddenly appeared outside the house.

"Click."

Accompanied by a light lock tongue, the door opened in response, and then a person walked in from outside.When the other party saw that there was another person in the family, he was shocked to see him.

"Mai...McLean!"

"Well," Maca said faintly, looking at the figure at the door, "Mr. Nott, welcome home-of course, if you can tell me that you have brought the time converter over, we might welcome it. More enthusiastic!"

"Uh..." After hearing this, Knott at the door came back to his senses for a while, and listened to him busyingly, "Oh! Unexpectedly, this time the converter turned out to be Mr. McLean you want!"
