The Evil God of Hogwarts

“Guess why Frank and the others met Mason?” Ribbon asked Ellie who came to the law office. The superintendent’s face was filled with a smile, as if he had discovered something extraordinary.

“In order to allow the Vincecott family in the United States to regain the ownership of 78 Hurst Street in Merseyside.” Ellie replied.

The originally cheerful superintendent stopped and looked at Ellie with a look of disbelief on his face. He spread his hands and said, “Damn it, you are… oh, forget it, I should have realized it earlier.”

“Realize what?”

“The reason why Xing Ze keeps you is because you are as good as him, or even better than him in some places.”

“Are you complimenting me, Superintendent?” The eldest lady slowed down, feeling a little uncomfortable with Ribbon’s sudden compliment.

“Of course not.” Ruiben showed a helpless expression, “Like Xing Ze, you have keen observation and quite powerful reasoning ability. Even if you are given some fragmented clues, you can slowly piece them together. Then “Tell me, how do you know Frank is here?”

Ellie and Reiben walked into the law office, and she whispered back: “I just talked to the history professor in Liverpool before. In addition to being proficient in history, he was also a radical racial resister. So I understand Here’s something about Hawkins Home Improvement.”

“Hawkins? The Hawkins who made his fortune by selling black slaves?”

Ellie looked at the superintendent, wondering whether she should say the rest.

“It’s okay, go ahead. I’m not that fragile. So is there any connection between Hawkins Home Furnishings and the Vincecott family?”

The eldest lady told Ribbon all the information she got from the professor, which she had not said on the phone before.

After listening to this, Ribbon thought thoughtfully and said, “Why do they need people from the Vincecott family to come here? According to Mason, that house has never been seen again since the death of Marian Hawkins.” No one has used it.”

“Who did Marianne leave the house to?”

“Um -” Ribbon took out his notepad and looked at it and said, “Victor Winscott, Marianne’s son. Oh, Marianne married to the United States, but she still uses her family name. I missed it. That is to say, the last Hawkins owner of the house was Nelson, Marianne’s brother.”

“He died in 1939, and all three sons died in the war. So there were no heirs, so the house automatically belonged to Marianne.”

“So we figured out who was with Frank that day, Victor Winscott. Maybe we can ask him why Frank was so interested in that old house.”

“No, no, no. The person who came with Frank that day was a young man.” The superintendent denied, “Victor Winscott must be over seventy even if he is alive. It can’t be him. The person who came is named Josh. · Vince Scott, the grandson of Victor.”

“Then let’s see if we can contact him and ask what Frank is doing. Maybe this can help us find the cause of death of Frank’s team.”

The superintendent nodded, “I’ll make arrangements, but don’t put too much hope in it.”

“No, go to the real estate company and have a look.” The eldest lady suggested, “Do you remember that Frank and Josh also went to the local real estate company that day to see if his contact number was left there.”

“Smart, I’ll go right away. Do you want to come?”

Aly shook her head and said, “I’d better go back to school first. Xing Ze might call, and I’m not worried about the people over there. In addition, I think they may have visited more than two professors.”

…

Xing Ze and Jezebeth came outside the kitchen and found a seat in the restaurant to sit down. Jezebeth asked the waiter for two ice drinks, but Xing Ze refused.

“Don’t worry, it was Todd and the others’ instructions to put drugs in the tea. In order to prevent them from becoming suspicious, this is all I can do.”

“I’m not thirsty.” Xing Ze said, “I’ve drunk enough just now. Let’s continue talking about old Kimball. His grandmother left him many magic books, including “The Book of Snakes” Teeth” right?”

“That’s right. Cady Kimball bought “Snake’s Teeth” from the Gaunt family for just a little money.”

Having said this, Jezebeth took out a cigarette, gestured to Xing Ze, and lit one after getting his consent.

“At that time, was the Gunter family already in decline?”

“Yes, but there are still some families that they can sell. But we also know that most of those pure-blood families are incest marriages, and most of the children they give birth to are idiots. I am afraid that at that time, not many people in the Gunter family knew that What the heck is this “Snake’s Teeth”? So it makes sense to sell it as a used book.”

Xing Ze lowered his head and thought for a while, then cleared up his thoughts a little, and said: “In other words, old Kimball’s grandfather was expelled from his family, the Hawkins family. And his wizard wife wanted to help He eliminated the curse of the snake-man and bought the “Snake’s Fang” from the Gaunt family.

“But because of the intervention of a third party, Cady had no time to worry about the curse. It wasn’t until his grandson Douglas Kimball developed a way to eliminate the curse. That’s why Frank wanted to come to Brichester. He found The connection between the Kimball and Hawkins families.”

“I think the Frank you are talking about refers to the great detective in Liverpool? Detective Squib, right? He also has quite a reputation in the wizarding world.”

“Yes, it’s a pity that his life and death are unknown now. The third-party forces you mentioned, do you know their origins?”

The corners of Jezebeth’s mouth turned up slightly. It had to be said that her smile was indeed very tempting, and it was impossible to control it.

“Of course, I did a comprehensive investigation. I searched all the files from that year. You have to understand, Xing Ze, why I killed Todd and the others. Because Brichester is not a good place. This place used to be Cults are rampant and the power of darkness is growing crazily here.

“Only the information records that there are three evil creatures living in the lake outside the city. They are all sleeping now, but many madmen still try to wake them up every year. Therefore, as observers and guardians, we must not Not being extra cautious.

“God knows what the purpose of those snake people coming here is. If they are going for those things at the bottom of the lake, then we will all be doomed…”

“Answer my question, Ms. Jezebeth.” Xing Ze interrupted.

“It would be good for you to know some local customs, Xing Ze. The third party is the Sabbat Order, the same group you met in Ravenska Village.”

Hearing this word, Xing Ze felt a headache. He has seen the methods of the Sabbat Order, and he can probably guess the purpose of these madmen coming here – the monsters sleeping in the lake.
