Chapter 2396 Intriguing Action
This time, the Stewart family obviously made a lot of determination to visit the British disaster area secretly. This point can be seen from the group of people they sent this time - it can be said that there are almost no mediocre players in this team, and any one drawn out can represent the first-class strength of the American magic world today.
The "stonemason's workshop" in Ilvermorny is full of talents, whether it is combat or research, there is no shortage of experts in all aspects, and the combination is not even better than the previous Order of the Phoenix, which was still led by Dumbledore. Difference.
Back then, Greenwald made waves in the United States, but he never took the initiative to provoke Ilvermorny from the beginning to the end, most of which was because of the existence of this special family research institute.
Although Greenwald was not afraid of facing the Stewart family, it was just that based on his understanding, he believed that there was no need for him to have another powerful enemy.
As for what kind of "knowledge" Greenwald has about the Stewart family... In fact, this is not a secret.
Anyone who has the opportunity and conditions to know about the "stonemason's workshop" is generally aware that this half-blood wizard family inherited from the founder of Ilvermorny has always had a rule, that is, everything is protected and fought for. The interests of Ilvermorny come first, followed by breaking the barrier between wizards and Muggles. Other than that, they silently do all kinds of magic research in the research institute and never take the initiative to get involved in other disputes.
No one would want to provoke such a low-key but profound force, and...to be honest, it is actually easy to be ignored and forgotten by people.
But this time, just as the disaster is befalling Europe, the power of this American family, which is almost forgotten, suddenly moved. And it's not a private act, but a big move that voluntarily united with the Magical Congress of America!
The reason for this is really intriguing.
So far, there are not many people who know about this secret team, but everyone who has noticed has actually widened their eyes, "staring" at all possible movements around the UK .
And obviously, because of John Stewart's private action with his younger brother, the current Hogwarts side headed by Professor McGonagall must be one of the few. Therefore, even in this somewhat overwhelmed season, Minerva did not simply put aside the appearance of the brothers after they left.
In comparison, Snape actually knew more details, but at this moment he seemed a little too careless.
"Tuk tuk."
suddenly,
There was a knock on the door, causing Severus, who had been hiding in the laboratory to read the letter, to stop his fingertips tapping on the table.
Tia's letter is not too long, and even if some things related to her past are mentioned in the middle, the sum of ink used is far less than the experience summed up from a potion experiment.
It's just that the amount of information in it was enough to make Snape ponder for a long time, and even until the knock on the door came, he hadn't completely cleared his mind.
"Who?"
Pressing his palm lightly on the letter paper, Snape turned his head slightly and asked aloud.
"It's me, Professor, Minerva McGonagall."
"Principal?" Snape paused for a moment, then folded the letter paper spread out on the lab table and stuffed it back into the envelope, "Please come in, the door is unlocked."
While speaking, Snape was about to put the letter in the drawer, but he stopped midway after thinking about it. And within a few seconds of his hesitation, the door of the laboratory was opened from the outside, and Professor McGonagall's tall and thin figure quickly walked in.
Snape didn't think about it any more, left the letter on the table, got up and went to meet it.
"Principal, what can I do for you?"
"Well," Mag nodded, closed the door with his backhand, and then said, "Madame Maxime got the news that the brothers from the Stuart family appeared in the port of Calais, France..."
"Did you tell Maxim about this?" Snape frowned slightly.
After all, Brother Stuart's trip was mainly because of Tia, and he naturally cared about his sister.
And to be honest, Snape himself has always been unreliable for Olim Maxim. In his opinion, Mrs. Maxime was similar to that little girl Granger, the kind of guy who appeared to be smart and capable of action, but was innocent and childish in his actions.
However, the one who gave the teachers and students of Hogwarts a safe place to rest now is the French headmistress of Beauxbatons and the current president of the International Federation of Wizards.
Regarding the dissatisfaction expressed by Snape, based on Minerva's understanding of him, she can probably guess some of the reasons. But soon she waved her hand and said:
"Even if I don't say it, I can't hide it from her—let's not talk about it, Severus, I'm just worried that Mr. Potter and the others are also on the British side. This time, if the Stewart family takes action, it is likely to affect their actions."
"Then we can't do anything," Snape didn't bother about Maxim's matter too much, and when he saw McGonagall expressing his worries, he also said, "And with the usual style of the Stewart family, we should also You will not do anything against us."
Speaking of this, he suddenly remembered the old anecdotes about the Stewart family mentioned by Tia in the letter, and subconsciously paused.
"What's wrong?"
McGonagall has always been a person with keen senses. She noticed Snape's strange pause almost immediately, and asked immediately.
"Well."
Just before McGonagall came in, Snape hesitated once about whether to put away the letter, but now because of the conversation with McGonagall, he remembered some of the contents of the letter again, and finally he no longer hesitated and made a decision.
"I may know what the Stuart family's action is for."
"What?" Mag was taken aback when he heard the words, "What did that John tell you?"
"No, it's not because of him... Well, at least it's not because of what he said this time." Snape shook his head, then turned around and picked up the letter from Tia from the experiment table, paused briefly, In the end, he reached out and handed it to Mag on the opposite side, "This is a letter from Tia to me."
"Is this... convenient?"
Regarding Snape's own sister, although McGonagall was one of the few insiders, even with Snape's consent, it was obviously not appropriate to read other people's private letters.
"Look! There is an old story about the Stuart family, which is worth paying attention to." Snape raised his hand and said.
