harry potter book of crimes

Little Tia, who had never really cared about what her biological parents would be like, finally thought, imagined, and tried to understand them on that day and night.

Of course, even if Tia was still young at the time, it would have been impossible for Tia to do something like riding a broom and flying into the sky for a ride with an older man who was weird and abrupt... and who also called himself a "wizard."

of.

Because whether it’s the broomstick that can carry people flying in the sky or the male wizard who appears strangely but is inexplicably familiar, they all look unreliable, don’t they?

"...Yes, your mother and I know each other. When I was still in school in Ilvermorny, the Gobstone Club in the school held a Gobstone Friendly Tournament - it is said that it was with the British Hogwarts

Gobstone Club made it happen together. At that time, your mother Erin Prince was the president and captain of the opposing club... But to be honest, she didn't seem to be so in favor of the holding of that event at that time, but

Their vice-captain is too enthusiastic..."

John was leaning against the wall, not deliberately looking at Little Tia who was still in bed, but just thinking about those youthful years... Well! In fact, he is not that old, after all.

He and Tia's mother are not from the same school, and are several years younger than the latter!

"...Are you also the president of that...'Gobstone' club?"

Little Tia obviously doesn't have much interest in the actual competition content of "Gobstone", which is considered a niche thing in the magic world.

However, it can be seen that after basically accepting what the other party has said so far, she has begun to consciously try to understand the world that is still very strange to her - including wizards and magic, including daily life.

, of course, including things that my parents have experienced and people they have known.

"Uh, me? No, no, I'm not... My identity at the time was a 'reporter'... I don't know if you understand? I was a reporter for our school's school newspaper. I was still a newcomer at the time, and I was handed a 'full record'

Do you think I'm very good at such a major task as jointly organizing a friendly competition between American and European schools? Well, let me tell you, I was..."

I don’t know if the so-called reporters are all as verbose as the John in front of me, or if this guy is a reporter because he is so sharp-tongued... Tia doesn’t know. She just didn’t continue very quickly.

Those braggings after paying attention to the other party were gone. It was only when John's words occasionally brought up things about his mother, that is, the 'Eileen Prince', that she would listen carefully.

After about half an hour of listening to the lecture, little Tia finally had a rough impression of her biological mother, whom she had never met since she could remember.

"Doesn't he sound like an easy person to get along with?"

Thinking like this, Little Tia pulled the edge of the quilt up again, covering the tip of her nose.

"What?" John, who didn't pay much attention to what Tia was saying, finally heard her muttering, and finally stopped his seemingly endless muttering to himself, "Oh! I should say Miss Prince... you

Is it about your mother? Well... To be honest, your mother is quite beautiful - it is said that Gob from Hogwarts

Less than half of the members in the Stone Club have 'liked' her! Unfortunately, she never talks much, rarely takes the initiative to pay attention to people, and seems to be very cold towards everyone... Such a woman is also married,

Now that we have children, in fact, until the day we met again ten years ago, it was still hard for me to imagine!"

"What kind of person is my...father...? Do you know him?"

It was obvious that she felt particularly unfamiliar with the term "Dad". Little Tia paused before and after the word, but she still said it.

"Huh? Mr. Snape?" John tilted his head, and Tia couldn't see his expression clearly in the shadows, "How should I put it? The feeling he gave me was actually... not very good. Ten years ago

, that was the first time I saw him, and it was also the only time - he showed up. He looked not in a good condition and was not in a good mood. The look he looked at me... was a bit chilling.

."

Having said this, he seemed to have recalled the scene when they first met, and he shrank his neck with the memory still fresh.

"...By the way, your father is a Muggle...oh, just an ordinary person, a person who doesn't know magic." After putting aside certain memories, John suddenly remembered and said to Little Tia, "You

It should be conceivable that it is actually a rare thing for a wizard to marry an ordinary person...even in the United States, it is not that common."

One of the founders of Ilvermorny was a Muggle, and he married the wife of a witch who was also the founder, and even passed on the surname "Stewart" to him. So this sentence said in his mouth

Come on, actually it lacks some convincing.

Fortunately, Little Tia must not know these things yet, and John is indeed telling the truth this time.

Sure enough, Tia didn't notice the emotion and reverie in John's words. She didn't know the twists and turns of the wizarding world over the past hundreds of years, nor did she know the school history of Ilvermorny, so she had no idea about these.

It's just a bit of a curiosity, that's all.

"Ordinary people marrying witches... sounds a bit strange." Tia muttered, probably remembering the occasional mention of witches in church books, but then quickly put aside those thoughts and asked, "

So, where are dad and mom... now?"

The reason why she didn't ask this question until now is definitely not because Xiao Tia is actually too heartless. It's just that her character and habits determine that many things that are most important to her will inevitably be put aside.

Finally I dared to try to touch it.

However, it can also be seen from this question that Tia was still a child at that time. Otherwise, she could always guess something based on her years of living in the orphanage.

"Um--"

Sure enough, when he heard Little Tia mention this, John's mouth that never seemed to be able to stop pursed slightly, and he was silent again for a rare moment.

"...The wand you put on the bedside table has its core taken from the one your mother used to use...I think it will suit you very well, Miss Prince."

John seems to still insist on calling little Tia "Prince" instead of "Snape"...even though he obviously knows who Tia's father is.

As for Tia's question, he avoided it.
