That's Old Taon!

When Maca saw the old man walking through the camp with a stinky face, he suddenly realized that he seemed to have forgotten someone before......

“…… Enns? ”

I remember that in Albania, it was the little guy named "Ens Taon" who moved the seal of the Bewitching Monument and mistakenly released Helbo from the ground.

And the most important part of this is how he unlocked the seal left by Salazar Slytherin's own hands?

Maca also asked him this question at that time. But in the end, it was Slytherin who started from the secret room and guided him step by step to the deep mountains and old forests of Albania.

"That's right, Ens should be a parseltongue too."

Maca suddenly remembered the magical image of Salazar Slytherin that only spoke snake language when she found the small secret room behind the Slytherin statue.

"So that means...... Ens actually has Slytherin blood, too? ”

Thinking of this, Maca couldn't help but shake her head.

When Helbo appeared unexpectedly, he really grabbed most of his attention, so much so that he missed a lot of details in a hurry. Now that I think about it, I really shouldn't have it!

Especially for the rather rare surname "Taon", after the stimulation of those memories just now, Maca had already thought of a somewhat far-fetched possibility.

"Mr. Taon!"

The next moment, Maca put aside her intention to leave for a while, and said hello as she walked back towards the middle of the camp.

……

Previously in London, the old Taon was sent to the Diagon Alley refuge point after Maca happened to meet him. And as a "squib" who can't use any magic, although Old Taon has a bad temper, he didn't refuse Maca's kindness.

After all, this guy has a bad temper, but his brain is not stupid. Knowing that he couldn't cope with all kinds of dangers, why did he refuse if someone was willing to help?

However, after going to the Diagon Alley defense line, he still didn't have the slightest intention of letting go of himself, and he was so low-key that he didn't look like the usual grumpy middle-aged man at all.

Even now, Taon goes to the food supply in the middle of the camp to get his lunch, and in order not to be crowded with too many people, he even prefers to wait until the evacuees are all done.

Know that food is always limited. In the end, although it is not impossible to eat, those good things must have been received by others.

"Two sandwiches, a glass of apple juice......"

Walking to the long table, which was covered with a clean tablecloth, the old Taon asked the staff for food with a blank face—he could only eat half full if he didn't have much, and he didn't mean to ask for more.

Perhaps knowing that his expression might cause trouble, he deliberately lowered his head slightly, which shows that he wants to avoid all possible troubles.

Of course, because of some inexplicable self-esteem and pride, he still stubbornly maintained that cold face, and would rather go to more trouble to hide it.

And when Old Taon suddenly heard that someone seemed to be calling behind him, he took the food and paused for a moment.

McKellen ...... Mr? ”

He slowly turned his head and looked in the direction from which the voice had just come from, and soon saw Maca walking towards him.

When Maca got closer, he frowned and said rather casually:

"What's the matter?"

While speaking, the old Taon was not idle in his hands, and picked up a sandwich on the spot and stuffed it into his mouth.

"Oh yes...... There's something I'd like to ask you about. Maca didn't care about his contempt, because it seemed to him now that it was more of a way to dodge.

After a pause, he added:

"By the way, you should be a professor, a 'home visit' to the student's parents!"

Although this excuse is rotten, it is both anachronistic and unrealistic...... He is a professor who has left the state, where is the reason to do home visits? And it's still at this inexplicable time.

However, no matter how you say this, it is all Maca's mouth, and few people can refuse it easily.

"'Home visits'?" Old Taon's cold face suddenly became more subtle, "Hmm...... Let's go! You can 'visit' as you want...... But Lao Tzu can't guarantee that your questions and Lao Tzu can answer them! ”

He waved his hand haphazardly, then turned his head and sat down at random, munching on his sandwich and assuming an awkward "do whatever you want."

Seeing this, Maca had no choice but to shrug her shoulders and immediately followed.

"Mr. Taon, I remember you mentioned to me before that your family was persecuted by Voldemort that you had to take Ens to hide in the Muggle world?"

"Huh?" When Old Taon heard this, he nodded happily, "That's right, that's what I said...... And if you don't believe me, then I'm talking gibberish...... Anyway, it's just a private matter for our family. ”

"Ah, no, no, I think you're mistaken!" Maca immediately waved her hand, "I believe it...... Especially after learning about some things, I think you're probably not talking nonsense. ”

"Really?"

When Old Taon heard this, he glanced at Maca in surprise.

"And what else do you have to ask? In those years, were there still fewer families who were killed by Voldemort? If I have to say, our family is lucky—you know, compared to the dead ones. ”

"That's true," Maka agreed, nodding happily, "I haven't personally experienced that era, so I don't dare say anything 'touched'...... Of course, that's not what I'm trying to say! ”

As he was talking, Maca suddenly changed her words, turned her head and stared at the side face of the old Ta Weng and said, "Actually, I just want to say - is the surname 'Ta Weng' really your family's real surname?" ”

As soon as these words came out, the hand holding the sandwich stopped instantly, and even the mouth that was chewing paused for a moment. Although he quickly reacted and chewed again, the pause just now was seen by Maca.

Probably knowing that it would be useless to put it on any longer, Old Taon chewed a few more times, and swallowed the food into his stomach in one gulp.

However, immediately following him did not move.

"Mr. Taon?" Maca raised her eyebrows slightly and said, "What are you...... Don't want to answer this question? ”

"Lao Tzu has the right to be silent!"

Old Taon closed his eyes and simply played the scoundrel.
