Chapter 55: Filch's Story
The next day, Weston received a message from Dumbledore, he had arranged the matter of the test and the test, and he didn't need to interfere in this matter again, it was enough to have Nicol alone, and if it succeeded, this magic could be regarded as invented by him and Nicol.
Weston thought about it for a moment and understood Dumbledore's thoughts, which was for fear that he would go down the path of evil, after all, the test subjects were all living people, although they were all damned people in prison.
Thinking about Dumbledore's thoughts, Weston agreed, and was about to return to Delacul Manor, but Filch came to visit.
"Weston, oh no, Mr. Delacour, do you have time now?" When Filch saw Weston, he smiled a little flatteringly, and his tone was full of flattery.
"What's the matter, Mr. Filch?" Weston gave him a strange look and smiled, "Is there anything to say directly, I remember, we should have a good relationship?" ”
"Okay, okay!" Filch nodded repeatedly, and his appearance did not change at all, and Weston was helpless for a while.
After a long period of reassurance, Filch was a lot more normal, but the flattery still didn't go down.
After a moment's hesitation, Fairch said in a slur manner, "Weston, I think I've heard that you're looking at how you can help Muggles cast spells?" ”
Weston glanced at Filch, suddenly understood what he meant, and nodded very dryly: "Yes, that's it." If nothing else, this is a success! ”
As soon as he heard this, Filch immediately asked excitedly, "So, is this useful for Squibs?" ”
Sure enough, Filch came for this purpose! Weston thought to himself, but shook his head, this time I'm afraid Filch will be disappointed: "I haven't tried it yet, it's hard to say." However, in my opinion, it should not be very useful. ”
"Sure enough, isn't it okay?" The light in Filch's eyes dimmed instantly, and he muttered to himself, his tone full of disappointment.
"What do you want to know, Mr. Filch? If you don't mind, you can talk to me! Weston looked at Filch with a smile.
Filch hesitated for a moment, then nodded slightly: "Well, there are some words that I have indeed held back for a long time. ”
"Actually, I'm a squib, you should know this Weston, right?"
Weston nodded, motioning for him to continue.
Filch saw that Weston didn't have a look of surprise on his face, and smiled bitterly: "Sure enough, although I didn't say it myself, you also guessed it!" ”
"It's not hard to guess, is it?" Weston smiled, "Very few wizards do everything with their physical strength and hands, and I haven't seen you use any magic. ”
"Magic? Hehe......" Filch chuckled, "how I wanted to use a spell, even the most visible fluorescent spell, but it was only in a dream!" ”
"I was born in the Filch family of the Sacred Twenty-Eight, and the current head of the Filch family is my elder brother. We were born only one year apart, but our fates were very different. When he was eight years old, he had already experienced a magical riot, and in the family, he was a little genius! ”
"Compared to my gifted older brother, I didn't show up until I was eleven years old, and after some checking, my father told me the cruel truth, I was a squib!"
"You know, when I learned this cruel truth, you can't feel that kind of despair! I still remember the disappointment on my father's face and the unconcealable sadness on my mother's face! ”
Weston looked at the deep sadness that gradually appeared on Filch's face, and the tears that had slipped from the corners of his eyes, sighed deeply, felt a handkerchief, and handed it over.
"Thank you." Filch took it, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and continued: "Although it has been basically determined that I am a squib, my father did not give up on me, and told me not to give up myself.
"In the wizarding world, there are not no magical riots after the age of eleven, and there are even twenty years old at the latest. These are the facts that I later learned in the book. ”
"At my father's behest I entered Hogwarts, studied with the students, and after graduating, became a logistics deacon at Hogwarts."
"So, you've been at Hogwarts since you graduated?" Weston asked curiously.
"Not really!" Filch shook his head, a hint of tenderness and pain flashing in his eyes, "I spent some time at Hogwarts, and by chance, I came across an old book in the forbidden section, with stories of adventures and the like. I suddenly felt the urge to go out and take an adventure. ”
"Although the wizarding world has existed for a long time, no one can say with certainty that they have fully understood the wizarding world and understood magic. Among them, there is not necessarily no possibility that I can become a wizard.
That's what I thought at the time, so I resigned with the headmaster at the time, Mr. Phineas Black, and went on an adventure. ”
"On the way to my adventures, I met the woman I've always loved – Loris Basbarnes."
"She's the daughter of a small northern family and is very adventurous, and the initial destination for both of us is the same."
"Although the journey was very difficult, it was the happiest day of my life. From acquaintance to acquaintance, to falling in love, I also learned that she can't use magic easily because of her family's bloodline curse. We can say that we are sympathetic. Finally, I proposed to her, and she said yes! ”
"Unfortunately, her brother was extremely opposed to her decision, and I was just a squib. Eventually, when she and her brother were in action, they erupted into a blood-cursed orc and became a blood-cursed orc. ”
"Is that the cat?" Weston asked.
"Yes." Filch took a deep breath, "If I wasn't a Squib, my Loris, I wouldn't be like that!" I was supposed to be the one who protected her, and as a result, she protected me! ”
Weston sighed deeply, he didn't expect Filch to have such a bloody and tragic past. No wonder he never got married, even if it was a Muggle, he didn't look for it, but always took his cat with him. It turned out that the cat was really his lover!
"Can you help me, Weston?" Filch looked at him pitifully.
Can I say no? This look is too lethal!
Weston touched his nose and nodded with a wry smile: "I can try, but not necessarily." ”
"It's okay, I trust you!" Filch said happily, "Even if it doesn't work out, I'll admit it!" I've been disappointed so many times, and it's not bad this time! ”
"Then I'll go first, thank you again, Weston!"
