"Rowena Ravenclaw?"

When Snape mentioned the name very suddenly, Maca couldn't help but frowned, and there was a trace of uneasiness in his heart. But Snape just glanced at him and continued.

"Yes, Rowena Ravenclaw." He said calmly, "Although I don't know where the ancient magic mirror is stored, I can be sure that it will not be in Hogwarts. This It is because Ravenclaw set a seal for the ancient magic mirror, which cannot be lifted by ordinary means, and destroying the Mirror of Erised is the only way to unlock the seal..."

Maca listened carefully, while meditating secretly, trying to sort out and digest these sudden new clues as soon as possible.

"Greenwald told you this?" He noticed that Snape paused, and subconsciously asked.

"That's right," Snape nodded slightly, "He knows you are difficult to deal with, and he is also very careful, staying at Hogwarts most of the time... So, he cannot enter Hogwarts himself, Break the Mirror of Erised."

Hearing what he said, Maca suddenly understood - this was probably the reason why Greenwald would throw out benefits and seek Snape's help.

As if knowing what Maca was thinking, Snape glanced this way again.

"It's not just me," he reminded, "I alone can't break the Mirror of Erised. You know, it's not an ordinary mirror, but a magic mirror made by Ravenclaw himself!"

"Really? Then—"

Maca suddenly realized that she knew something about the Mirror of Erised, but now it seemed like she knew about it for the first time. For the seemingly inconspicuous magic mirror, his understanding is obviously still very superficial.

"Do you still remember the refugee student who transferred from Greece?" Snape casually said, "Helen Schoen—that little girl was the key to breaking the Mirror of Erised, and it was also Grinwald who opened the seal' key'. And I'm just a guide."

"Helen... Shane..."

Maca repeated the name, his thoughts were racing, and he returned to the moment when he strangled the silent man who attacked the Ravenclaw tower with a force of rules that day.

Helen Schoen, who was originally poisoned by spider poison and fell unconscious on the hospital bed, suddenly turned into an obscurant, attacking Hogwarts at night, and almost got Luna involved. If he hadn't told Mafa the owl to be vigilant at all times, that night might have left him with more regrets.

But thinking about it now, it turned out to be a double misleading set by Greenwald.

At that time, he felt that Helen Schoen, an overly enthusiastic little girl, was a bit suspicious, so he left acromantula and owl as double insurance, so he dared to go to the United States to investigate Greenwald's whereabouts.

Facts have proved that the insurance he left can be said to be a great success. Although the acromantula was caught off guard, Marfa the owl helped him a lot, allowing him to return to Hogwarts in time to prevent the situation from deteriorating.

However, through Snape's words now, he really understood the key point - Greenwald's arrangement for Helen Schoen's transfer to Hogwarts was not to attack Hogwarts one day at all, but to Another purpose.

That night attack made Maca at the time think that the incident in the United States was just a cover, and that Helen Schoen's attack was Greenwald's real intention. But he didn't expect that these two things were all blindfolds.

As a result, Maca, who had just calmed down from shock and relaxed his mind at that moment, could no longer notice that Greenwald had quietly succeeded without knowing it.

Although the information of the two sides is not equal, and Greenwald is the one in the dark, such means, but Maca, who is an enemy, has to admire him deeply.

"...As expected of Gellert Greenwald," Maca couldn't help but sighed, and then asked again,

"Professor, where did Greenwald get that ancient magic mirror? Do you really have no clue at all?"

But Snape glanced at Maca with some doubts in his eyes.

"I've said so much, don't you understand?" He asked back, "Even Ravenclaw had to use the sealing magic of ancient times to imprison it, and now it's in Grinwald's hands... don't you still Is there a solution?"

When Maca heard this, she couldn't help but fell silent for a moment, then shook her head slightly.

"Indeed, I know it's very difficult, at least for now I don't have any way..." He said, paused for a while, then looked directly at Snape and said, "But even so, I can't give up going try."

When Maca said this, even he didn't realize that his expression was not resolute.

Maybe when Luna is in Hogwarts Castle and trapped in it, he will be desperate to save it. But in fact, Luna was not at school this time.

"Professor," Maca continued, "I don't know if you understand what will happen next, but I hope you can know—that ancient magic mirror will cause a huge disaster, as long as it is within the range, there will be almost no People can escape the fate of death. And the place where this disaster will happen is... probably at the funeral of Professor Dumbledore!"

"Professor...Professor Snape," he said solemnly, "I believe you can understand, what exactly does this mean?"

But Snape still frowned and said nothing, the eyes of the two collided together, but each had its own complexity. After a while, Snape turned his face slightly and cast his eyes on the dining table.

There were still a few plates on the table at this time, and the dishes on the plates were not very rich, let alone cold. However, this was what Tia had left for Snape before, and the intentions could be seen.

But it was this humble warmth that made Snape's expression change slightly.

Maca, who was sitting next to her, naturally noticed this. He just wanted to say something, but after a little thought, he finally closed his mouth.

It may be useful for others to act with emotion and reason, but it will only have the opposite effect for Snape. For such an extremely assertive person, no rhetoric can compare to his own thoughts.

At this time, waiting quietly is the most correct choice.

Just when Maca and Snape were both silent, another ten minutes passed silently. Every minute and every second of this was precious, and it was a part of Maca's only five hours. But he knew that if Snape could reveal more clues, then the wait would be worth it.

Suddenly, staring at those dinner plates in a daze, Snape sighed insignificantly.

"I really don't know where Greenwald found that ancient magic mirror," he said blankly, as if talking to himself, without even raising his head, "I just know, Greenwald De has been to the southern coast of the United States, and more than once."

American South? coastal areas?

Maca just thought for a while, and after a while, he showed a pensive expression.

There was a place that he had never been to, but it could not be said to be unfamiliar. If Snape hadn't reminded him, it would be impossible for him to connect that event with this one.

But now, he couldn't help but think that way...

"Thank you for your answer, Professor." Maca looked at Snape and said, "I believe that you will not regret the decision you made tonight."

But Snape just looked at the plates on the table without saying a word.

Maca silently nodded to him, then without further delay, stood up and walked towards the door. When he opened the door with mottled black paint and stepped over the threshold, he turned his head again.

Snape still maintained that action, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Professor, I'm leaving first," Maca said softly, "...Also, say hello to Tia for me."

After all, as the door was lightly closed, his figure finally disappeared into the night outside. At this time, the distance from dawn may not be far away.

It took a long time for Snape to come back to his senses. His fingers trembled slightly, and he paused again. Then he stood up while supporting the dining table, and glanced at the door seemingly casually.

"McLean."

There was still no expression on his face, but his heart was full of pain and entanglement.

Not to mention Maca, a student he had a good impression of, even the choice of Tia and Lily made him hesitate many times.

To be honest, Snape's heart was far from being as indifferent as he appeared on the surface, and the choices he made about his relatives and loved ones made him exhausted time and time again.

Sometimes he even thinks, if there is no such a sudden appearance of the younger sister, how good it would be? At least he can unswervingly get rid of everything and devote all his heart to his unrequited love for Lily.

Some people may think that this one-sided love is desolate; but for Snape himself, this eternal love is the salvation of his life.

Compared with those who have spent their lives in a daze, he is one of the luckiest people in the world who has a love that can give up everything for it.

But now, another sudden family affection made him unable to give up easily.

Maca originally thought that Snape chose to hold Hermione hostage because he had doubts about him as a student. But in fact, the reason why Snape did that was more because of Tia.

Because Snape couldn't make a choice, he handed over the right to choose to Maca in this way. And just now, it was actually the same.

In just a few hours, can Maca completely kill Greenwald's actions with the bit of information he gave?

For this most critical point, whether it is Snape or Maca, it is an unknown quantity.
