Harry Potter Raven's Claw
Chapter 480 The clichéd tragedy
Mrs. Kent, this is a person Mike is very familiar with.
Of course, the reason why Mike is familiar with her is not because they have had any contact, but because this woman appeared frequently in Clark's memory, and at the last moment, Clark's most precious meeting was almost all about the memory of this daughter.
But in Clark's memory, Mrs. Kent is far from the way she looks like she is in front of Mike now.
In Clark's mind, Mrs. Kent's hair was always black, and there were never wrinkles at the corners of her eyes. The familiar black dress was always as dark as the night sky, and a warm and happy smile was always hanging on her face.
This is normal, because in the eyes of most sons, the mother is always perfect, and the son does not think that the mother is ugly is just that.
When Mike saw this, he thought Clark and Mrs. Kent should be a very good relationship with her mother and son, but in fact, after continuing to watch, Mike learned that the relationship between the mother and son was not that good.
This is a very sad story.
Mrs. Kent was also a decent person in Slytherin during her school days. Although the Kent family had long declined, she received a very good aristocratic education with her first Mrs. Yu Yin and had never lacked material things.
It is obvious that Mr. Kent is preparing to train Mrs. Kent as a lady of a family. Although he has the hope of using her as a family marriage in the future and selling her at a good price to restore the family's decline, there is no doubt that Mr. Kent is excellent to Mrs. Kent, better than any other descendants of his family.
But it was Mr. Kent's favor that made Mrs. Kent's character become willful and willful, and he considered himself the center of the world and that everyone must look up to. However, while his personality defects were flawed, Mrs. Kent's academic performance and even behavioral etiquette were impeccable. This was one of the reasons why Mr. Kent loved her so much--Mrs. Kent was a genius witch, the hope of revitalizing the family.
And such a witch who will be extremely brilliant in the future was hopelessly in love with a Muggle who was ten years older than her not long after she was from Hogwarts.
And it's a pity that the Muggle didn't like her. He had already had a happy family and could not leave his wife and children to marry Mrs. Kent.
But Mrs. Kent didn't think much. She had never been able to get anything she wanted since childhood.
So, all the tragedy began. Mrs. Kent, who had excellent potion, used a romance agent, and a few months later, Mrs. Kent, who was only 18 years old, married the Muggle man without his family knowing it.
Mike became very familiar with the following plot. Under the influence of the romance agent, Mrs. Kent and her husband lived a love life for several years and gave birth to Clark, but soon, her husband became resistant to the romance agent.
Mrs. Kent's husband began to realize what had happened to him over the years, and because he was influenced by the romance agent for many years, his mental problems also occurred, and began to become irritable, and eventually, he completely vented this anger on Mrs. Kent and Clark.
This is a very typical wizard-style tragedy. Witches who have the same experience as Mrs. Kent are everywhere in the wizard society. This is also the reason why Professor Slughorn calls the romance agent extremely dangerous. It is indeed the culprit of countless tragedies.
According to the original direction of those plots, Mrs. Kent should raise Clark alone and then struggle in the Muggle society.
But Mrs. Kent is obviously an exception. At one moment when her husband beat her up, she woke up and realized that she had been doing stupid things.
So she decisively took out her wand, killed his father in front of Clark, and then took Clark, who had been scared to death, to her father, Old Kent.
In Mrs. Kent's consciousness, Old Kent has always loved her the most. As long as she can meet the Kent family, her life will definitely return to its original trajectory, happiness and satisfaction.
However, the reality is cruel. After Mrs. Kent returned home, she discovered that her father, Old Kent, had long passed away. Her brothers and sisters fought for the Kent family's property that had been left with little left. She had long died of old age and never interacted with each other. She also became a shame to the Kent family, and her brothers and sisters regarded her as an enemy.
If Old Kent hadn't insisted on leaving the old house to her before his death, Mrs. Kent would have been wandering on the streets with Clark.
After that, Mrs. Kent became depressed, and she began to become addicted to alcohol, ignored Clark, and had an ambiguous relationship with many male witches. She eventually gave birth to two daughters with unknown fathers.
Of course, this was already the case when she was still young.
Nowadays, she no longer wants to ask for it, and she has lost the support of her lovers. This young lady who has been spoiled since childhood has been extremely weak in life and taking care of herself has gradually fallen into the abyss of poverty.
This made Mrs. Kent suffer!
Mike looked at Mrs. Kent's old face, who could see her beautiful appearance when she was young, and the corners of his mouth slowly rose up. For such a person, he had some ways to deal with it.
On the other side, Dumbledore seemed a little impatient. He frowned and looked at Mike deeply, then gently tapped the coffee table with his knuckles:
"Okay, let's not waste our time anymore, just sit down."
As soon as this said, Professor Flevy, who had already stood up and was about to put Mike on his head, sat down expressionlessly, and Mike sat across from Mrs. Kent naturally and continued to stare at her with a smile.
Under Mike's gaze, Mrs. Kent suddenly felt a lot of pressure. Now she had clearly understood the horror of Mike's strength, and saw from the reactions of Dumbledore and others that Mike's extraordinary identity was, which made her dare not look at Mike at all, and could only look down at her shoes full of muddy ideas.
"Well, since everyone is ready, then let's start." Kingsley saw that everyone had already sat down and took a document from his pocket, took a deep breath and said, "First of all, let's confirm the issue. What we are going to deal with today is about McTownley's kidnapping of Clark Kent as the culprit of the previous assassination of him at Quidditch Stadium."
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Kent started sobbing again, but strangely, Mrs. Kent cried for a long time but her eyes were red, and no tears fell.
Kingsley glanced at her, looked at the others, and continued to say when he saw that everyone had no objection:
"So, next, I'll ask you a question first, Clark Kent, where is he? Or, is he still or?"
As soon as this spoke, everyone's eyes turned to Mike in the office, and even the portraits of the principals hanging on the walls secretly looked over.
But Mike, who was under the gaze of attention, looked indifferent. He shook his head gently and asked casually:
“Is this important?”
"This is the most important issue today, no one! In addition, please correct your attitude, Mr. Tony!" Kingsley said with a stern eyebrows, "You have made a fatal mistake! Whether Clark assassinated you or not, he should let the Ministry of Magic deal with it. This is the power of law enforcement, and it is only the Ministry of Magic! It is illegal for you to take it away privately. I can sue you for kidnapping and intentional murder!"
Mike looked at Kingsley with a slanted eye, his expression still being so careless.
"No, that doesn't matter at all."
Listening to Mike's indifferent tone and looking at the almost sarcastic expression on his face, Kingsley's breathing became rapid. He had never seen such an arrogant prisoner in so many years. At this moment, he was really angry.
Kingsley opened his mouth slightly and instinctively wanted to scold him loudly, but Mike looked at Mrs. Kent first and continued:
"In my opinion, the most important question today is, how much do you want?"
Mike's words made everyone who did it again stunned, especially Mrs. Kent. Her expression was particularly wonderful, full of surprise and surprise. It seemed that she had never thought that Mike would ask such a question.
Then, she quickly reacted, and the expression on her face became indignant, as if Mike wanted to use money to buy her completely insulted her.
But Mike sat down on his own as if he hadn't seen her expression at all, took out the check book and wrote a few strokes on it, tore it off and placed it in front of Mrs. Kent.
"How about a thousand gold Garron?"
Mike asked slowly, but Mrs. Kent didn't hear what he was saying at all. At this moment, her attention was completely attracted by the thin check, and her expression became a little dull.
She instinctively wanted to reach for the check, but before her hand could touch the check, Mike took it back and added another zero to it.
"No, no, no! This is really too little. Clark is an excellent person. The price is far from worthy of him! Then... ten thousand gold Gallon!"
The check was put back in front of Mrs. Kent again. This time, Mrs. Kent seized the opportunity and grabbed the check in her hand in an instant.
She first confirmed Mike's magic signature and the mark that Gringott proved the check valid, then looked at the amazing number, and then her body trembled violently, and her eyes slowly turned red.
"Oh! By the way, I forgot to introduce myself, Mrs. Kent." Mike stood up with a smile, "My name is McTownley, and he is the CEO of Los Santos Group, so you don't have to worry, I can pay the money completely."
"Then, what is your answer? Is this 10,000-gold Gallon enough?"
Mrs. Kent did not answer Mike, and she was counting the numbers on the check over and over again.
Mike was not in a hurry, he sat back in his seat and slowly drank the black tea that had already been cold.
But Kingsley next to him was anxious, but he saw Kingsley frowning and said with some anger:
"Are you thinking I don't exist? Mr. Tony! Or do you think that this method can help you escape punishment?"
"I never feel like I've made any mistakes that need to be punished," Mike said with a smile. "The reason I do this is because I know I have to pay the money. The question is who to give it to. Compared to giving it to you or lawyers, I would rather give it to Mrs. Kent directly. After all, you are the one who needs it the most, right?"
Mike's words made Mrs. Kent wake up, and then she held the check in her arms as if she had thought of something, while looking at Kingsley with a vigilant look on her face.
"No, no, no." Kingsley said with a sincere look on his face, "please don't do this, Mrs. Kent."
"But I still have two daughters to support." Mrs. Kent squeezed out a smile with difficulty, "That's it, I deceived you. Clark was not missing, he was just recommended to work abroad by me, so your allegations against Mr. Tangley are not valid at all."
This short sentence seemed to drain all the strength of Mrs. Kent. After she finished speaking, she collapsed on the chair, holding the check tightly in her hand.
"Merlin! Mrs. Kent, you don't have to do this." Kingsley said in despair. "We are seeking justice for your son. Do you want your son to disappear so unknown?"
Kingsley's original intention was to inspire Mrs. Kent's maternal love so that Mrs. Kent would continue to hold Mike accountable, but this seemed to have a counterproductive effect.
When Mrs. Kent suddenly became angry when she heard this, she sat up straight and glared at Kingsley and shouted:
"Please stop saying these shameless words! Do you think I don't know what you are thinking? You are not trying to get justice for Clark, you are just trying to take this check from me!"
"No, I never thought of it."
"Stop talking nonsense. I have seen enough dirty things you have done. You have always done this. You have arrested the criminals first, and then forced them to hand over their wealth for freedom. This is the case! Otherwise, how could there be so many Death Eaters outside now? You should know that many of them should have been arrested and executed when the mysterious man fell for the first time more than ten years ago!"
Kingsley opened his mouth slightly, as if he wanted to defend something, but in the end he didn't say anything.
Because what Mrs. Kent said was completely the truth. When the Death Eaters was first tried, this was how the Ministry of Magic operated. The most typical example was Lucius Malfoy, who was bribed by bribing the Ministry of Magic officials from a vicious Death Eater to a poor man controlled by Voldemort with the Soul-Snatching Spell.
