Chapter 350: Werewolves and Animagus (Part I) (Part 1)
β...... So, Mr. Werewolf, can you volunteer to admit it?" Jon asked with a smile, glancing at the two traveling companions who were dressed completely differently beside him.
"What are you kidding!" Sandru's face changed suddenly, and he slammed the glass in his hand to the ground and shattered it, glaring at Jon angrily, and his strong muscles suddenly tensed.
Jon ignored him and turned his gaze to William Smith on the other side.
Mr. Smith looked very embarrassed, and he was struggling to choke his throat with his right hand, as if to prevent himself from saying something he shouldn't have said.
"Relashio!" Jon pulled out his wand and gave him a gentle touch.
The hand that was tightly choked in the throat was released in an instant.
"I ...... I'm a werewolf!" his voice was very strange, as if it didn't belong to him at all.
Mr. Smith's top hat was tilted to the side, his face became very hideous, and he looked at Jon angrily...... Suddenly, his body seemed to have lost its strength, and the whole person was paralyzed on the chair, squirming with difficulty.
"This ......" After hearing the other party's brief "confession", Sandru's hand after smashing the wine glass stayed in mid-air, and the whole person was stunned.
"Truth spitting. Jon calmly explained, "It only takes three drops of a colorless, odorless, transparent liquid to make a person tell the secret of their heart. β
As he explained, Jon picked up his glass and took a sip of wine:
"And the paralyzing potion...... It only takes a single drop to paralyze an adult man for about an hour, but I'm not sure if the potion will still be effective after you transform, as werewolves are quite resistant to magical drugs. β
Turn around. Looking at Sandru's look of surprise, Jon added, reassuring, "Don't worry, the potion is on the glass, and the wine is completely safe." β
......
There was a brief lull in the compartments of the hotel.
"Are you...... How is it...... The ...... found," William Smith, with a frail face, said weakly.
"How to find out, it's so easy...... Jon explained to him nonchalantly, "William is almost one of the most common names in the British Muggle world, and Smith has the most number of surnames...... So it's not clever or even clumsy that you've acquired this pseudonym, because it doesn't sound like a wizard's name at all......"
β...... Besides, you keep saying you're a Slytherin graduate, but you don't even know who the Headmaster is......" Jon continued, "Professor Severus-Snape only went to Hogwarts fourteen years ago to serve as Headmaster of Slytherin......; If you did attend Hogwarts, according to your age, you would have been Horace Slughorn as the Head of School. β
William Smith, paralyzed in his position, his teeth chattering slightly.
"So, you didn't go to Hogwarts at all, and you probably grew up in the Muggle world...... So why on earth did you lie and deceive me, in order to get close to me? Besides, this polite aura of you is also disguised?" Jon said as if to himself, as he looked into the other's eyes:
"Actually, a little observation will tell you - light brown eyes, but you can see a hint of green, which is more noticeable at night, pale complexion, tired look, and older than your peers...... It's all werewolf traits, although you seem to be well disguised. β
Jon paused, and said, "Honestly, Mr. Smith, you're pretty well disguised, but you're unlucky, because I've learned enough about werewolves in my first and second years to know you better." β
"So after breakfast, I took a chance to look it up...... It turns out that tonight is actually a full moon, so your purpose seems to be coming to you!" Jon smiled, "Meet me today, get to know me, and walk with me...... Until the full moon comes out at night, suddenly transforms and bites me without me noticing, and makes me your countryman, is that so, Mr. Smith?"
"That's right......" The other party immediately became starless, and said in an emotionless flat tone: "I would prefer to bite you to death, you high wizards, let us hide in the gutter, you are all guilty!"
"Very well, so what's your real name?" Jon asked, with a blank look on his face.
Jean ...... Jean Cruise. β
"Okay, Jean. Jon continued, "Then why are you trying to attack me?"
"This is Fenrir's plan...... Fenrir thinks it's your wizards' fault that we avoid normal society, that we steal to get food, that we can't find any work...... Fenrir believes that if more wizards are turned into werewolves, our standing in the wizarding world will be enhanced. Gene replied in that flat, emotionless tone:
"So every full moon night of the transformation, we try to do something like this...... At the same time, we are very careful in the selection of targets, and only choose lone or weak wizards to prevent detection by the Ministry of Magic. β
"A lone foreign underage wizard, does it look like I'm a perfect fit for your hunting plans!" Jon couldn't help but laugh to himself, "Who is Fenrir?"
"Fenrir Greyback, the leader of the Werewolf Resistance, will lead us to live in the sun!" replied the Werewolf.
"Sounds like a great goal. Jon commented.
The name Fenrir Greyback is certainly not unfamiliar to Jon...... One of the most ferocious werewolves in the original book was also a capable subordinate of Voldemort (albeit at a low level within the Death Eaters).
"You're just like him, working for the Dark Lord?" Jon continued.
"That's right. β
"So you told me you were going to Kruja, and you weren't lying?"
"Yes, it was the Dark Lord's orders...... The Dark Lord sent me to Kruja in order to ......"
"Stop, don't talk about it!" Jon commanded coldly, stopping the werewolf from continuing...... He hadn't forgotten that he had a traveling companion by his side.
Then, he raised his wand and aimed it at the other's head:
"Legilimens!"
......
A few minutes later.
Ignoring Sandru in shock on the sidelines, and ignoring the werewolf paralyzed there.
Jon looked down, as if lost in thought.
At the same timeβ
In the sky, the day gradually dissipated, and the moon slowly appeared behind the dark clouds.
