09. Rumors

After teaching his parents how to use the Whispering Charm, Sherlock didn't care how they practiced, and he let Camilla move around the castle as she pleased, just by returning to Sherlock's room in the evening.

And he himself went to the family study again.

However, from then on, her sister Asinsha wanted to sneak into her brother's room, but she was always seriously rejected by her brother.

made little Lori very dissatisfied.

Because Sherlock really didn't want to, it wouldn't be good if his little spy secretly found out some of his secrets.

Parents can't wait to use their pets after learning the subtle spells, and the father's pet is an owl snowy owl, which belongs to the same breed as Harry Potter's Hedwig.

Because wizards in the wizarding world generally use owls to transmit messages and act as messengers, most wizards' pets are owls, although there are exceptions such as the civet cat of the mother Ellie.

And my mother also had a fox when she was a child at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, but Hogwarts didn't allow pets other than owls, cats, and toads.

Fu Mund used the spirit of speech several times to be silent, and when he thought it was his son joking with him, he heard his wife shouting at him that she had succeeded.

"You succeeded?"

"That's right! I succeeded in planting a psychic seed in it with a spell, and even I heard it say to me that it was holding it too tightly and that it was having trouble breathing. ”

Looking at the civet cat in his wife's arms, the cat's eyes were about to roll white, and it is estimated that the reason why his wife's pet is willing to let go of his heart is also to make her usually treat herself better.

"Then you still don't let go, aren't you afraid of strangling it to death?"

Fu Mengde was a little annoyed, it was also a husband and wife, why she could use it a few times and succeed but not herself, saying that he was also very good to his owl on a normal day.

Seeing the owl's ignorance of his own answers, Fu Mund was a little puzzled.

"Master, this is today's Daily Prophet."

"Oh! Okay Schog. ”

Fu Monde was a little depressed, and he even wondered if the students who graduated from Ravenclaw College were smarter than the other three colleges, after all, his wife graduated from Ravenclaw.

He picked up the newspaper that Schorg had delivered, and the first piece of news made his heart sink.

"Where's Asinsha? Shoge brought Asimsha over. ”

Fourmond was furious, for the first news item in the Daily Prophet had been written by his nominal friend 'Rita Skeeter'.

In the text, she prominently pointed out that the eldest son of the Mephisto family, Sherlock Mephisto, is actually a hidden parseltongue, and even implicitly raised concerns about the background and history of the Mephisto family.

Yan Ran has a tendency to worry that the talented Sherlock is likely to become the third generation of the Dark Lord.

"This madman."

Fu Meng angrily threw the newspaper on the ground, presumably because of Rita's compilation of this article, the wizarding world outside would be interested in whether Sherlock was a parseltongue or not.

Obviously, since he took charge of the family, he has tried to avoid contact with the outside world every time, but he didn't expect that this time he still put his son in the whirlpool.

"Master, there's also a letter from the Ministry of Magic, written by Minister Cornelius Fudge himself."

Fu Mund took the envelope in his hand and thought for a moment, but he didn't even look at it, but looked directly at his daughter, Asinsha Mephisto.

"Tell me, dear, did you tell anyone else about Sherlock's communication with the snake besides us?"

Acinsha looked at her father's angry appearance, a little frightened, but nodded anyway.

"Who is it?"

"Aunt Rita, once again I was outside the farm, I saw a beetle flying over, I wanted to catch it, but the other party turned into Aunt Rita, she told me that I was looking for material and inspiration for writing articles, so I ......"

Fumond sighed, he had almost forgotten that Rita was an illegal, unregistered Animagus with no registration with the Ministry of Magic, and she could turn into a beetle.

"Okay dear, I'm going to the Ministry of Magic, and I won't read the minister's letter."

It is said that people's words are terrifying, and the real power of rumors, Fu Mengde can be regarded as understanding this time.

He had just arrived at the Ministry of Magic through Floo Powder, and before he could enter the minister's office, he heard the sound of people arguing inside.

Obviously, some people in the Ministry of Magic don't think there's anything terrible about the Parseltongue, it's just a gift, but some officials like to go online, and they also implicitly mention the mystery and the Slytherin founder Salazar, who is also a pure-blood.

"Enough gentlemen! You're talking about my child, shouldn't you wait for me? ”

As soon as Fu Mund entered, he saw that among the people present was Rita Skeeter, a woman he wanted to strangle with his own hands now.

"Oh my God! Fourmond, you're coming so fast, I think you've read today's Daily Prophet. Fudge came over to greet him.

Fu Monde, on the other hand, looked at Rita coldly and said, "Yes, I've seen it, and to be honest, the writing is good." ”

Rita turned to the side, trying not to make eye contact with Funmond.

"Then you should have read the letter I wrote to you?" Fudge asked.

Fu Mund raised the letter in his hand and said, "I don't even bother to open it, can I guess what is written inside?" ”

"Actually, I mainly wrote some understanding in it, after all, Mephisto is an ancient surname, and everyone knows that one-fifth of the black magic was created by Mephisto, this legend, so some of us in the Ministry of Magic also think that the so-called Parseltongue can also be regarded as a great talent, and he will not be equated with any evil."

Fu Mond was a little angry, he said, "Listen to Connelly, I don't want to say anything, I don't care what you Ministry of Magic thinks, and I believe you don't dare to do anything too much to Sherlock, but what I hate is the slander of Sherlock by some people in the wizarding world, my child, I know, he is not a parseltongue, he just invented a spell that can communicate with animals!" ”

Cornelius Fudge waved his hand to calm Fumond and said, "Yes, yes, I understand that you don't want Sherlock to be a ...... Wait a minute! What did you just say! ”

Seeing that the people in the minister's office were silent, Fu Meng was very satisfied with this kind of scene.

"A month ago, Lucius gave my son a snake egg that the golden python was about to hatch, which became Sherlock's first pet, perhaps because of the child's heart, he especially wanted to communicate with the little snake, so he invented a spell to plant a spiritual seed in the animal that is close to the wizard, as long as the animal is willing to open the mind to the wizard, and then the two can communicate."

"It's like the Animagus, a spell that requires a long period of contact to complete, and Sherlock calls it 'Whisper'!" One of the easiest things to succeed in is the relationship between wizards and pets, and if you are interested, you can always come to Mephisto Lodge and ask Sherlock for advice, I think with Mephisto's upbringing and character, he is willing to teach you. ”
