106. Scott's plea for help

Scott failed to convince Michael and Amilia, but he didn't give up.

With a few days left on the holiday, he decided that he wanted to leave his parents out of England before the holiday was over, anyway.

Now, he really hasn't provoked the kind of enemy who would attack his family, but the exposure of his address is always a hidden danger.

Scott didn't dare bet on the probability of such a thing happening.

The town is small enough for Michael and Emilia to hide.

Moreover, they take the abilities of wizards for granted.

Wizards are not something that two Muggles can resist, even with guns.

Scott had decided that if he couldn't persuade him, he would have to turn to Professor Flitwick for help.

For the next few days, Scott finally couldn't see his name in the newspaper.

This means that journalists like Rita Skeeter no longer pay attention to him.

Scott also had some guesses about this.

After all, he is not a celebrity, even if the reporter has a relationship with the deceased in the article, it can only attract attention in a short time.

It's enough for an average student to get Rita Skeeter to write two stories, and the public wants to see celebrity gossip more.

Scott breathed a sigh of relief.

From this incident, he can basically draw a conclusion - the Ministry of Magic's investigation into Travers' death has basically been finalized.

That's why a reporter with a keen sense of smell like Rita Skeeter didn't dig into the cause of the accident.

Today, their eyes have focused on the Traverse family's estate, and the social question of whether house-elves are reliable.

Scott put down the newspaper and looked at Emilia who was sitting on the couch watching TV.

"Oh dear, don't say it."

Emilia raised her hand alertly to stop Scott from speaking.

Scott has been trying to persuade her and Michael to move away these days, but it doesn't seem to be of much use, and the two of them seem to have made up their minds.

Scott sighed and turned to go upstairs.

He decided to write to Professor Flitwick for help.

He returned to his room and quickly wrote a letter to Shay.

"Go ahead, help me get the letter to Professor Flitwick."

Scott patted the owl's head lightly and opened the window.

Shay spread his wings and flew away, and as he passed by the yard, he barked at Rimbaud in the trees, as if to show off that he was more useful than the blackbird.

Rimbaud is not a real bird after all, and its "wisdom" is given by Scott's magic.

And Scott's magic can't give it too much wisdom for the time being.

So it couldn't understand Shay's mood of wanting to show off, and just screamed twice in response.

Scott sat down at his desk and took a thick notebook from a drawer and flipped it open.

This book is some of the knowledge he thought would be useful from the library in the school year a few years ago, including some content from the forbidden book area.

In the past few days, in addition to persuading his parents to move, he has also been taking time to check the relevant instructions for Occlumency.

Before Travers' death, Scott could have gone to Hogwarts with his brain "open", confident that no one at the school would read his brain, but now he wasn't sure.

Because he knows very well that he still has some doubts in the matter of Travers.

Professor Flitwick would certainly believe him, but that didn't mean Snape would believe in him too.

It is true that Dumbledore would restrain his power from taking away from the souls of his students, but that doesn't mean Snape will do the same.

In the "original book", there are often descriptions of Snape staring straight into Harry's eyes.

It's hard to tell if Harry is lying by the green eyes of Lily Potter or by the dementors.

Scott had seen the principles of Occlumency, but he hadn't paid much attention to it before.

In his old thoughts, this magic should be slow to learn on his own, but it was impossible for him to practice it like Harry did in the "books".

There's no way he's going to find a sorcerer who can dementor and have the other person look through his brain and use it to practice.

But when Scott really started learning this spell in the past few days, he was surprised to find that he was so easy to learn.

He also quickly found the reason.

Basic Occlumency involves clearing the mind of thoughts and emotions so that the Mind Retractor is unable to find any emotional connections related to the memories that the polygraph test person intends to obscure.

When using Occlumency, it is important to keep your mind blank and calm.

A very relaxed or overly excited brain is highly susceptible to invasion. When sleeping, the human mind and emotions are defenseless.

Similarly, when a person is very agitated or angry, a person's emotions are equally defenseless.

Scott speculates that the reason why Harry can't learn Occlumency in the "original" is because he can't control his feelings.

Especially in the face of Snape, he may not be able to suppress the disgust and antagonism in his heart.

Unlike Harry, Scott is very good at controlling his emotions.

Of course, in addition to his personality, there is also the reason why he has gone through the past and present lives and is more mature in his mental age.

All in all, Scott's Occlumency, which had been quite effective in just a few days.

While he couldn't quietly deceive someone else's dementor like Snape, it was enough for Scott.

Achieving Snape's level is not something that can be achieved in a short period of time, and the only way to improve after that is to work water.

However, Scott is not a double agent, he does not need to deceive others quietly, he can confidently refuse other people's magic to enter his brain.

For Scott, the brain's defenses don't even have to last long, as long as no one can snoop into the secrets of his brain in the event of an emergency.

After he reacted, whether it was to take the method of not looking at the other party, or using the Iron Armor Charm, he could effectively defend himself.

Professor Flitwick returned to's house after dinner.

Scott, who had been waiting for him to arrive, sensed his magic when he appeared outside his yard.

He estimated the time, and knew that Professor Flitwick had rushed over as soon as he had received his letter.

"Professor!"

He ran out of the room to welcome Professor Flitwick in.

"Oh, Scott!"

Professor Flitwick looked at him apologetically.

"I'm here when I receive your letter! If it weren't for your letter, I wouldn't have known about it! I've been doing a spell experiment lately and haven't read the newspapers these days! ”

His voice was a little quick and sharp.

"I'm sorry, but I told the people in the Ministry of Magic not to reveal your address!"

"No, it's not your fault, Professor."

Scott, of course, would not blame the innocent Professor Flitwick for this.

"I'm grateful that you'll be able to come over after receiving my letter!"

He was truly grateful to Professor Flitwick.

This gentle professor will always go out of his way to help his students.

"Don't say that, Scott."

Professor Flitwick raised his hand and patted his arm.

"Since your home address was first leaked from the school, I will definitely help you solve this problem."
