Hogwarts The Dark Arts Awakening

Will Hogwarts collapse?Jerry wasn't sure.

Logically speaking, this is impossible.As the only formal magic school in the UK, Hogwarts not only has sufficient students and stable funding, but also has a strong teaching staff.

With such a superior status and conditions, how could Hogwarts collapse suddenly?

Unless she was taken over by Voldemort, she taught the young wizards the Unforgivable Curse in the first year of school, allowing them to practice the Cruciatus Curse and compete with Avatar every day.

I believe that in such a cruel environment, the Death Eaters would also consider sending their children to Durmstrang to go to school. It would be far away, but at least there would be no threat to their lives.

The exception, of course, is madwoman Bella, who will happily sacrifice her child to the Dark Lord.

Jerry shook his head and shook off these outrageous speculations. There were still things that needed to be done right now.

During the past period of time, apart from his daily hunting activities with Peter Pettigrew, he had been concentrating on practicing the [Occlumency] squeezed out of the other party, while thinking about the owl he had never met in his previous life.

As for the Gallo family, what does it have to do with him?It's interesting enough to remember to persuade the other person to move as soon as possible before leaving.

Is there a little secret behind them?Is your true identity consistent with what you say to the outside world?Jerry didn't care or care about these things at all.

Even if there is really something fishy, ​​can it still be more troublesome than my own [Three-Headed Fierce Fire]?That's what he originally thought.

However, if the purpose of Mr. and Mrs. Gallo's visit to Little Hangleton was the old Gaunt house, the situation would be different.

Jerry obviously couldn't allow others to take the lead, especially after he had been busy for almost nine years.

He turned to look at the black-haired girl beside him, the light in his black eyes condensed again, let the answer come out by itself!

"No one has lived in that old house for a long time. It's still nestled in the bushes. I guess there must be a lot of mice and spiders in it. Do you really want to go?"

Jerry dissuaded 'Tuduo' with a concerned tone, and naturally looked into the other person's eyes, preparing to read the other person's thoughts.

"Isn't it better to have an old house with no one living in it? My parents are worried that they have no inspiration recently." The girl replied with her head lowered, avoiding his direct gaze.

Her actions surprised Jerry. Was it accidental or was he aware of it?

When using [Legilimency] to deeply dig into the target's inner memory, the subject will indeed feel like being spied on, and some will even replay past memories in their mind like a revolving door.

But what Jerry just used was a little trick he learned from repeatedly using this witchcraft on Peter - not to peer too deeply into the target's heart, and only to taste the outside.

The advantage of doing this is naturally that it reduces the chance of being discovered. Even if you follow the target's thoughts and emotional fluctuations and explore the associated memories a little, you will not be easily discovered by the target.

Jerry had reason to believe that a skilled Legilimency master would be more or less capable of this skill, unless they liked to make endless ticker tapes appear in the target's mind and then make it known to everyone.

Of course, deliberately restraining the power of [Legilimency] will also cause problems such as insufficient strength and limited information acquisition. This method is more suitable for using words to quickly determine whether the target is lying.

Just now, Tuduo's lowering of her head prevented Jerry from looking directly into her eyes, causing the power of Legilimency to further weaken this time, and the full effect was not achieved.

Fortunately, thanks to Peter Pettigrew's selfless contribution, Jerry has almost maxed out his proficiency in [Legilimency] and is close to the realm of sublimation.

Even the residual power that has further weakened after being actively suppressed is enough for Jerry to see some of the true information in the girl's heart.

What surprised him was that when the other party heard the news that 'that old house had been uninhabited for many years', he was indeed happy from the bottom of his heart.

However, what troubled the Gallo couple was not a lack of inspiration, but something that was not going well, something the family had planned to do before they came to Little Hangleton.

"There might be snakes in that broken house!" Jerry continued to test, preparing to stir up Tu Duo's memories related to it in order to obtain more information.

The girl did not raise her head, but replied in a very natural tone: "Snake, what does that matter? I like snakes very much."

Her voice was calm, as if the snake was just an ordinary pet around her, completely devoid of the usual reaction most girls would have at the mention of such a cold-blooded creature.

Moreover, what she said was actually true.The result of Jerry's perception is that this girl really likes snakes.

It's getting suspicious.

Jerry wanted to say something more so that he could continue to explore the details of the Gallo family, but the figure walking not far away forced him to temporarily stop talking.

A tall, muscular blond man walked towards the five teenagers at the entrance of the village. He was the girl's father, Jacob Gallo, a self-proclaimed travel writer.

This man's appearance is quite intimidating. He is 1.8 meters tall with strong muscles. He walks with steady and majestic steps.

Looking at the appearance of this macho man, his blond hair is spread out, his face is as sharp as a chisel, thick eyebrows, big eyes, a high nose, thick lips, and he also has a thick beard, which is the same color as his hair and has a golden glow. Twinkle.

Jerry watched Jacob walking this way, and wanted to complain in his heart. He looked like this but claimed to be a travel writer. In ancient times, it was called a "robber pretending to be a scholar" in ancient times.

In modern America, he looked just like a Western cowboy, or worse, an outlaw with a bounty on his head.

It is also for this reason that Jerry did not initially think of the Gallo family as exotic wizards. At first, he was more inclined to believe the speculations of drunkards, treasure hunters or criminal thieves.

Besides, the other party didn't just carry a small stick to remind everyone that they were actually wizards.

However, it now seems that it was the inherent impression that induced Jerry to make a hasty misjudgment. He has been too relaxed over the years.

Maybe Jacob's father and the girl's grandfather was a fierce man, and like Hagrid's father, he had the courage to offend giants?

The man who called himself 'Jacob' walked up to the boy and girl, and forced a smile from his majestic face.

"Children, it's so late, where are you going?" Jacob's voice was as strong and powerful as his appearance.

Butch, Lighten and Tops once again exposed their true nature. They had been hiding behind each other since Jacob came over, and they didn't dare to speak now.

"Good evening, Mr. Gary." Jerry greeted him, "We are planning to go back."

Jacob looked satisfied with the answer, nodded in response, and wanted to take his daughter back.

But the girl obviously had different opinions. She raised her head, smiled and said to her father: "I heard that there used to be a family named Gaunt on the hillside opposite. I want to go there and have a look."

After hearing what his daughter said, Jacob shook his head repeatedly, "Gaunt's old house? No, absolutely not."

"Huh? Why, we're not here for..."

Tuduo was still about to say something, but this time Jacob interrupted her before she could finish.

"Be obedient, come back with me now, Martha will make you your favorite dried fruit patties." His voice was not harsh, but he did not allow his daughter to refuse.

Soon, Tuduo was taken back by her father Jacob's hand. As she left, she still looked at the opposite hillside unwillingly.

Jerry waved Butch and the three of them back to their respective homes, and then followed the Gallo father and daughter back to the former Riddle House.

Halfway through, Jerry could hear Tudor continuing to plead with Jacob, hoping to visit Gaunt's old house, but Jacob wisely refused his daughter.

After arriving at the repaired courtyard, Jerry said goodbye to the Gallo father and daughter and walked towards the path leading to the gardener's cabin.

Then he stopped halfway.

Although he had stopped Legilimency after Jacob arrived in order to avoid alerting others.However, the information already obtained and the intelligence heard later showed that Jacob's family was not simple.

'Since their intention of coming is likely to be related to Gunter's old house, then I should investigate. 'Jerry made a decision.

After all these years of peace and quiet, I was really too lax, and it was almost a month before I went to officially investigate.

Jerry reflected on his laziness and stretched his hand to the open space on the left.

'Here comes Peter the Mouse! '

Jerry whispered in his heart, and a gray-furred mouse rolled towards his palm and was caught in his grasp.

Now, there are spies too.
