Chapter 2473 Conversation Through the Door
"Mr. Snape, I took the initiative to find you not long ago, but you obviously didn't want to talk to me at that time. Well, you don't want us brothers to see Tia, so I thought about it carefully at the time. So I decided to give up. After all, you are the brother she finally found with the courage to cross the North Atlantic Ocean. Seeing how you categorically refuse any suspicious people including me to try to get close to her, I can also Trust her, she should be living well under your protection now..."
"But, Mr. Snape, now that you've taken a huge risk to appear here again, saying that you want to talk to me about something again... Please forgive me for being rude, but my instinct tells me that it's my turn now." I declined, because...to be honest, I feel the danger in your abnormal transformation."
In the room, John was standing a few feet from the door, feeling a little uneasy.
Hermione also invited him to the conversation going on in the small living room downstairs. As a stranger who had just gained some trust from the other party, John was very self-aware and didn't mix it up.
But he never expected that when he was wondering why Tia's British brother suddenly appeared here again, the other party had already come outside his room.
When they met outside just now, they acted as if they had no interest in themselves anymore! Why did you come here and knock on your own door in the blink of an eye?
John didn't dare to open this door without knowing the purpose of the other party's visit—although he was really not sure, with that Mr. Snape's strong character, such a thin door on the territory of zombie Can you block the other party's door?
Fortunately, the other party seemed to be a little scrupulous here after all. After John had already expressed his refusal, he did not immediately choose to ignore the door blocking the two of them.
Snape didn't try to get in, but still stood outside the door and said coldly:
"Of course you still can't see, Tia, never—she doesn't have any good feelings for America, and, coincidentally, neither do I. However, since I just talked to her recently, I heard a very suspicious And the story of deja vu...and I just learned from her that you, John Stewart, seem to be one of the few important characters in her little story."
Speaking of this, Snape in the corridor stretched out his hand and pressed on the door gently, making a muffled "bang".
"Tell me," Snape continued, "Stuart, can I ask you to understand?"
As a professor who has worked at Hogwarts for many years and is known for his strictness, Snape, who was already not very good-tempered, developed a bullying aura because of this. At this moment, even through the door panel, John could clearly feel the oncoming pressure.
But before that, some information revealed in Snape's words also made him capture an important point that cannot be ignored.
While thinking about it, John no longer completely rejected the other party's conversation, and couldn't help asking:
"What do you want to know?"
"Hmph, are you willing to talk?"
Outside the door, Snape snorted coldly, and then said lightly:
"The question I want to ask is simple - tell me, this time you are coming to Europe, is there a guy named 'Jason Stewart' in the team? If so, where is he now?"
Snape's question was indeed very simple, and it was also very short, which made the silent wait after that seem quite long.
Fortunately, this time Snape was quite patient. After John in the room hesitated for a while, he finally heard the latter in the room say:
"Jason...is indeed a member of our team this time, and I'm afraid he is the only one who is still alive besides me. As for where he is now...if I have to say it, I'm actually not very sure, but it is I've been told by 'someone' that he may have gone to Holland."
"The only survivor...?"
After hearing this, Snape outside couldn't help muttering to himself, but he didn't deliberately lower his voice. Even John who was separated by a door vaguely heard his words. To be honest, John actually wanted to correct it a little bit, after all, if Snape made such an omission, he would turn into a dead man!
However, now is clearly not the time to argue this.
Just at the moment when John was a little unhappy, Snape asked again outside:
"Someone told you he went to Holland? Who said that?"
Hearing this, John thought for a while, thinking about the possible consequences of his answer. Just thinking about it carefully, these things were already discussed with Hermione and others at that dinner party. From the standpoint of Snape's background outside the door, even if he doesn't say it now, the other party will probably say it soon. can be learned from other populations.
After thinking about it like this, John finally answered honestly:
"It's the master here, the 'lord of the living corpse'."
"yes?"
This time, Snape's reaction seemed a little flat, as if he had already guessed the answer first. Then, there was another silence between the two sides inside and outside the door, probably both of them were thinking about their own affairs.
More than ten seconds passed, and Snape outside the door was the first to break this rare tranquility, but his tone was obviously much more casual than before.
"By the way, speaking of it, you should know the specific identity of the mastermind behind the big case that didn't come to fruition in your American magic circle more than ten years ago?" He asked, "You can choose not to answer this question, But I still hope that our conversation can end relatively amicably... After all, this will most likely be the last conversation between you and me."
"What do you mean?" When John heard this, he let go of his guard just now and immediately raised to the top, "We had some terrible conversation just now, don't you want to kill me?"
"Tsk!"
Snape clicked his tongue impatiently.
"What silence? Answer quickly, and I'll leave if I don't say anything - I don't have as much time as you!"
Hearing what Snape said, John immediately knew that he was over-vigilant and overthinking, so he couldn't help but smiled bitterly in embarrassment. Then, he said directly:
"I don't know what you want to know when you ask this, but I can tell you that the abbot of the abbey was called 'Lenny Stewart' more than ten years ago-in fact, I have spoken to Miss Granger and the others about that case. After that, if you still want to know any details, you might as well talk to them. That's it! You...you can go."
