Chapter 18: The Intersection of Thousands of Miles

Think about it, what would you do if you received a letter like this, which was clearly written in another language? There was still some time before class, and sitting in the corner of the classroom in advance, Brandi took out the textbook of the mysterious history from his school bag in a trance, and his mind was completely lost in the upcoming class.

Probably going to Hermione first......

Thinking so, Brandi's head naturally conjured up with Hermione's figure. As a knowledgeable guy who is good at learning to read books as a pastime, of course it can't be wrong to ask her for help in the first place. Of course, Padma should also be a more reliable choice, but after all, she is not as familiar as Hermione, so she naturally has to be ranked behind Hermione. After all, it is my own name on the letter—most people don't want to share private letters with their elders.

So, the idea of the guy who wrote the letter at the beginning was to ask Audrey to show the letter to Anna, who could read English among her closest friends?

Brandi frowned. The person who wrote the letter looks like he has investigated Audrey's relationships?

Well, from her own point of view, if Hermione finds out that she has received a threatening letter, and has already found a guy at school who is very similar to the description on the letter......

Hiss~

Brandi couldn't help but take a breath of cold air. According to Hermione's character, she will definitely check the bottom of this guy in detail.

His identity is really not above board to be investigated by others, and if Anna had a quarter of Hermione's action and curiosity, I'm afraid that her disguise as a woman would have been revealed long ago. At that time, she was really at a loss for words, and it was impossible for Anna, who was already suspicious, to let such a dangerous guy spend these three months by her side smoothly - she would definitely report to the school!

A little wizard deceived the Ministry of Magic, and a man disguised as a woman came to Beauxbatons to try to rob other people's belongings? Either way, it seemed like enough for him to go to Azkaban for a few years in prison.

And even if it hadn't turned out to be such an extreme situation, Anna would probably have persuaded Audrey to stay away from her, so that the plan to obtain the second seal through negotiation would naturally go bankrupt - Brandi didn't believe that the matter would end here, and the guy who knew his identity, and even knew that the second seal, would definitely not just have fun if he came up with this trick to hinder himself!

Knowing his identity as an exchange student and the purpose of his visit to Beauxbatons, knowing that Audrey has a good friend from England, who is not among these exchange students, but can write a threatening letter and put it in Audrey's dormitory without knowing - think about it, why would he want to stop his plan!

What else could the answer be?

It can't be just one person! Hogwarts and Beauxbatons may both have Voldemort's undercover agents, and they want to get a second seal too!

All things considered, this terrible guess made Brandi sweat profusely.

Brandy already knew in the Chamber of Secrets that there was a servant of Voldemort lurking in Hogwarts, and that he had stolen the diary from Brandy, opened the Chamber of Secrets and released the basilisk—he had been wondering how that man had come into his dormitory, and how he had come and gone in the castle late at night.

But what if that guy is a senior member of the school himself?

Originally, Brandi wasn't very sure, but if the servant even knew about his disguise and came to find the second seal—apart from Dumbledore and a few house heads, only Brandy and the other five knew about it!

Could it really be him......

Brandi dipped in ink and scribbled his name heavily in his notebook.

Snape, scary fellow.

The only thing to be thankful for is that Brandi's luck has gone a little too far. The undercover agent seemed to have mistaken the most crucial point, he didn't seem to see the magic report that Dumbledore had brought back, and he always listened to them about retrieving the second seal and retrieving the second seal - so he subconsciously thought that the second seal was on the wizard card.

Second, his sneaky search for Audrey at the banquet happens to be discovered by Anna, so much so that Brandi doesn't even know who Audrey is. This was an extremely unsuccessful act, but it just helped him temporarily dispel Anna's desire to report it to the teacher during that Transfiguration class - although he still suspected Brandi's purpose, how could a guy who didn't even know who Audrey was be able to put down a threatening letter in Audrey's dormitory?

So when Brandi swore to Merlin that she would never have any evil thoughts about Audrey's wizard card, she reluctantly gained Anna's trust (Audrey seemed to be a very innocent girl and never seemed to suspect him), but it didn't come without a price - except for class and bedtime, Brandi had to stay by the two of them until the bad guy showed up.

This happened to be in Brandi's arms, so the two hit it off, and within a week, Britney had two close 'good friends' from Beauxbatons.

………………

The history of mystery is indeed as Akihari hoped, far more interesting than the history of magic. As the class bell rang, a young woman in her thirties walked briskly onto the podium. She was a tall woman, wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, and at first glance she looked like a very knowledgeable scholar, and she looked a little old-fashioned wrapped in a large violet cloak—but surprisingly, from the first sentence of her lesson, everyone was very happy to find that she was so easy to get along with.

"Put away all your textbooks, those things were made up by the team improvised in order to fool the boss, otherwise there will be no way to pass the review." She squeezed her eyes at everyone and smiled brightly. "I swear that if I had written down all the known past in a book, I would have been arrested the next day and had tea with the leaders - for the reason that I had subverted the correct history and maliciously attacked and discredited the Ministry of Magic."

Feeling everyone's surprised eyes, she looked very happy.

"Looks weird? Ha! Not every Ministry of Magic official is so rigid and inflexible, and no matter how much I love the Ministry of Magic, I won't give me a raise—you can call me Roman, who belongs to the Ancient Magic Research Team, and the British Ministry of Magic should not have such an organization, so you can just treat me as a specialist in ancient history. ”

Brandi had never seen such a lively professor, or rather, the Roman in front of him looked more like a funny and eloquent comedian than a professor who taught and nurtured. He found that he was more willing to listen to what Professor Roman would have to say than to think about what he was going to say.

"Originally, according to the plan, another colleague of mine should have come to teach you, I have a lot of work on my hands, and I haven't been able to figure out the gadgets that the research team got from Croatia last time. But the colleague who was supposed to substitute for you had an accident, so I came. She said, as if she had become accustomed to injuries to her colleagues. That's why I didn't let you open the books – I was in such a hurry that I didn't prepare for the lesson. ”

"Poof~"

The audience was stunned, and then a faint light laugh sounded.

"Hey, little beauty, what's wrong with you?" Professor Roman picked up a Slytherin girl in the front row.

"That's the professor, since you haven't prepared for class, can you tell us about what you're researching now?" There was a smile in the girl's voice, as if she hadn't calmed down from the joke she had just made. "You just said that the research team went to Croatia?"

"Oh yes, Croatia. That was a few months ago, though... Speaking of which, this can really be said to be a mysterious history... If you want to hear it. ”

Professor Roman looked around at the crowd and noticed that everyone was listening to her with their heads held high, so he coughed. "I don't know if any of you are fond of this, but let me ask you first—do any of you know about the two major prophetic families in the wizarding world?"

This was undoubtedly a common sense question for the eldest ladies born in wizarding families, and soon someone raised their hands.

"Professor, are you talking about the Trelawney family in England and the Stratton family in Croatia?"

Professor Roman nodded. "That's right, in the history of magic compiled by each country itself, there are undoubtedly only two orthodox prophetic bloodlines, Trelawney and Stratton. Historically, there may have been a handful of wizards from other families who would awaken the power of the Prophet, but later tracing back to their ancestors was basically due to the fact that the family had intermarried with the collateral of the two Prophet families. Today, the Stratton family lineage has been completely severed when countries fought over the ancient ruins of the Netherlands a few years ago, and the Trelawney family has only one seedling left...... I am afraid that the precious blood left by our ancestors is about to be broken. ”

Ancient ruins of the Netherlands? Brandi remembered that Orianna had only mentioned this morning, that a mysterious magical relic had appeared in the Netherlands a few years ago, but had quickly disappeared. Is Professor Roman talking about the magic relic?

Unfortunately, Roman didn't seem to want to dwell on the ruins, she sighed, and continued. "Of course, our story doesn't have anything to do with that incident, when our Ancient Magic Research Team went there just to try our luck at Stratton's Castle, which had been turned upside down - I don't know if that was luck or not."

She took a deep breath and looked at the people who couldn't wait.

"In Stratton's basement, we found a sealed vault that looked like it had been for years, at least not in nearly a hundred years. With the help of the Gringotts elves, we paid some price and broke the seal...... Inside, a torn halve of the Stratton family tree and some divination props were found. ”

"Genealogy?" Katie asked suspiciously, "Why do you want to seal that thing, how can the family members in the back add themselves?" ”

"We were confused, too, but when we translated it from Old Slavic, we understood." Recalling that scene, Roman seemed to tremble with excitement. "It's a genealogy from hundreds or even thousands of years ago, there are not many people on that genealogy, and it's very distinct, half of it is undoubtedly Stratton members, and the other half may not believe it, but the other half is—"

"Trelawney? Professor Roman? ”

Orianna raised her hand and spoke the answer in everyone's hearts.
