Chapter Ninety-Three: The Unknown Black Hand

Chapter Ninety-Three: The Unknown Black Hand

He opened a book and sat there, but the professor's voice didn't reach his ears at all. In this situation, even if the students are reluctant to return to school, I am afraid that there are few people who can calm down and study hard.

"Hey! Sephiroth Sterling, do you hear me? ”

Suddenly, a voice came from his ear, and Sephiroth turned his head slightly, revealing that it was a strange Ravenclaw student.

Nodding his head, he said "hear" to the other side, but Sephiroth was very puzzled.

It's weird. Sephiroth frowned and thought for a long time, but he still didn't remember that he had dealt with the other party in the past.

"Who are you?"

"It doesn't matter who I am, because I'm not looking for you, I'm just passing the word on your behalf. Pache Noregi asks you to meet you at the observatory after school. ”

The student on the other side covered his mouth with a book and whispered while the professor was not looking.

"Weishenme, won't she come and tell me personally?"

The cunning, suspicious Slytherin, how could he believe whatever others say. Moreover, Sephiroth has always been a conspiracy theorist, and in his opinion, the whole Shijie is a conspiracy,

"I don't know this, anyway, I'm just a messenger, the word has already arrived, do you believe it or not!"

The kid also looked arrogant, and after speaking, he turned his head directly and ignored Sephiroth.

Sephiroth's heart suddenly caught fire, if it weren't for the professor on it, he would have thrown him directly with an Avada Death Curse. Trained by Voldemort for a vacation, and with Emperor Gakine being a killer without blinking, he doesn't mind killing a fool for fun.

"Good boy, how dare you show the face of our Slytherin chief?"

Sephiroth hadn't said anything yet, and the Slytherin students who had noticed it were upset. The chief is the face of a year in Slytherin, and the students of other houses give the chief a face, isn't it obvious that they will not give face to their classmates this year?

People don't die if they don't die, why don't you understand? If we don't die tonight, you're not a Slytherin!

Due to the different grades, even though some of Slytherin's classes were with Ravenclaw this year, Sephiroth couldn't find Pache here.

Moreover, the observatory after school, no matter how you think about it, there are really not many people in this school who can threaten him, and the few who are either professors or magical creatures, he is not worried.

Hogwarts is a school protected by a magical contract, and professors and magical creatures are not allowed to attack students, and if they want to hurt students, they will inevitably be attacked by the contract.

Determined, Sephiroth waited for the end of school, how could they be students who had experienced the tea poison of the Celestial Empire, Sephiroth said that the wizard's class schedule exploded easily.

After school in the afternoon, on the observatory.

The observatory was built for stargazing, so that students could look up and see the sky, and there was no ceiling in the ordinary room, so it was easy to add a spell to protect against the wind and rain with the ability of a wizard.

The moment Sephiroth stepped onto the observatory, he was relieved, and the girl with long lilac hair leaned softly against the fence in the setting sun.

The girl didn't seem to notice Sephiroth's arrival, and she brushed the hair on her forehead and raised her head to stare at the white clouds in the sky. The graceful snow-white pink neck peeked out from between her hair, giving Sephiroth the urge to pounce on him as a vampire and bite it.

"Pache Senpai."

Sephiroth couldn't help but say hello.

"Huh? You're here, sorry I was a little distracted. From here, I found that the school was so deserted unconsciously. ”

Patchouli had an idea, and she realized that the person who invited her had arrived, and she didn't know how long it had been coming.

"It's okay, I've just arrived, but I've kept my senior sister waiting for a long time."

Shaking his head, Sephiroth didn't intend to blame anything.

“…… There's one thing I want to ask for your help with. ”

Biting her lower lip, Patchouli seemed to hesitate, but was still embarrassed to ask for an invitation.

"Huh. Anything, if I can help, naturally I will not refuse. ”

Sephiroth smiled faintly, if he had a little affection for this book friend, if it was just some inconsequential things, of course he was willing to do his best.

“……”

Sephiroth agreed to hear it, but Pache hesitated.

"What's wrong? Is it a difficult thing to do? ”

Sephiroth had a premonition in his heart.

"Well, my father and some of the Norregi's family property were seized by the Ministry of Magic during the holidays...... Didn't the Stirling family just become the masters of the Ministry of Magic? So I thought, can you do me a favor and get my father out first? ”

Patchouli pleaded in a low voice, as if ashamed of herself for asking her friend for help. Apparently last semester, he was still in a righteous and awe-inspiring way to persuade him not to hang out with those dark wizards, but now he came to ask Shili from the dark wizards to help him, and Patchouli was simply ashamed of his actions.

However, when she thought of the current situation of the Norreki family, Pache had to force the urge to flee from here.

If it was just a sacrifice of a little face, or even that sacrificing her as a person could be exchanged for her father and family, Patchouli would not hesitate to do so.

Compared to the whole family, and the father who raised him, can't he bear even this little bit of shame?

Didn't you make up your mind a long time ago?

Pache secretly clenched her fists to cheer herself up.

The Norregi family is a powerful pure-blood, and if it were in peacetime, Pache would definitely not beg others to do this, even if they were her friends, or even more so because they were friends.

But the current situation is different, this is a time of war, all laws and legal systems are in vain, and justice is only in the hands of those in power.

In the face of oppression, of course, the Norreji family also resisted, at that time, this shijie wizard did not have the ability to fight the army alone, even if the strong wizard was, in the face of a few, or a dozen good hands besieged, in the end, they were only defeated.

"What's going on? Weishenme has been detained, and I remember that the Ministry of Magic has been gathering strength lately. Take your time, and I can help you figure it out. ”

Sephiroth wondered. No, the Ministry of Magic is now acting like a dead man in his hands, and he is not strong enough to protect himself, how can he provoke the Norreji family, which is also a pure-blood family.

"I don't know very well, all I know is that one day a group of Aurors suddenly came to the door of my family's bookstore, broke straight in, and attacked my father. After my father's resistance failed, he was forcibly taken away by those men. ”

"They claimed to be from the Ministry of Magic, said they were there to investigate the Dark Wizards, and that my father was involved in the terrorist attack on the Ministry. He also said that there was a problem with the shops of our Norreji family, and many of them were forcibly sealed. The family was panicked and didn't know what was going on. ”

As Pache came along one by one, Sephiroth seemed to understand something, but there seemed to be a hidden mystery.

If it was a terrorist attack involving the Ministry of Magic, it was the Death Eaters themselves, and then it only suppressed the members of the Order of the Phoenix who worked in the Ministry of Magic. In order not to provoke Dumbledore, Voldemort did not even dare to order an attack on the members of the Order of the Phoenix in the name of the Ministry of Magic.

At this time, how could anyone pick on the thorn of the Norreki family.

Sephiroth looked left and right, "Your father must be a member of the Order of the Phoenix." Or did you infuriate 'that man' by refusing his invitation? ”

"How is that possible!"

Pache was stimulated and suddenly cried out loudly.

As if realizing that this would attract the attention of others, Pache shrank her head in embarrassment, but she was reluctant to explain.

"The Norreji family is also a pure-blood, and it is impossible for them to join Dumbledore's side. As for the invitation, we haven't received it at all. ”

Now that the Death Eaters are powerful, how can anyone dare to lean on the Order of the Phoenix.

"That's right, if you're not from Dumbledore, I can't figure out how someone from the Ministry of Magic could have the energy to do something to your inconsequential family."

Death Eaters aren't stupid, and no one makes enemies for nothing.

"Senior sister, you relax first, wait for two days, and I'll write a letter back and ask."

Sephiroth's father is the acting minister of the Ministry of Magic, and he may become a regular in the future, and if the Ministry of Magic asks him about something, he will ask the right person.

……

Things were far more serious than he thought.

Perhaps during the day, Pache pretended to be too bland, and although she was a little nervous, she did not burn her eyebrows, which surprised Sephiroth when she saw the reply.

The predicament faced by the Noregi family is not only that the patriarch has been arrested and the property has been sealed.

In fact, the Noreki family has reached the point where it is untenable, and is almost on the brink of destruction like the Marvolo family. During the holiday, their family was greatly impacted, almost the most pure-blood family, the property collapsed by about nine floors, and several servants were killed.

According to the reply, Pachuali's mother begged her relatives to tell her grandmother during this vacation, and even the Stirling family made several trips, but Sephiroth himself did not know it.

In this case, if this continues, I am afraid that there will be one less pure-blood family within this year.

It's no wonder that even Pachouli, who only loves to read, is forced to ask the few friends she has for help, and her little baby-fat face is a little thin.

Which side of the shili did it?

Sephiroth kept scrutinizing, and the Death Eaters and the Order of the Phoenix were busy fighting each other, and they didn't really have much idea about a scholarly family like Norregi, or they wouldn't pay attention to them at all.

What did the people of their own Truth Astronomy Society do?

Sephiroth also sent a letter to ask, but they replied that they had been busy exploring the wizarding world abroad recently, and the small Norreji family might be worth remembering because of their book collection. If they had done it, they would have robbed all of the Norregi's family by now.

Did the fourth party shili appear?
