Friendship in Your Circle

For some, reputation, or more narrowly, face is everything.

It's better to die than to lose face.

The old blonde man is clearly such a person.

As the guardian of a pure-blood family, he is a figure like the emperor, and it is already very important to come and observe it in person, if he is fried by a stinky melon and smells of feces and urine from the inside out, it will be too much, let alone disfigured, imagine the situation with a stinky pockmarked face, it is definitely an eternal shame.

And the premise of all this is that the old family never joked about magic.

This is also one of the confirmations, if the stinky leaf melon is really like the warning sign says, then it can basically prove that there is indeed an old guy here.

With the change of ethos, the younger generation of the present generation has rarely approached magic with caution and reverence, and only the older ones are still clinging to dogmas such as that magic is never 100% safe.

This is also the Marco that the blonde old man has made in the past few years worse than the lost dog? The reason why Travers went to test the waters. It's okay to be arrogant in discussions, but be careful.

Ma Ke is also an old man who has stepped into the ranks of old birds on one leg, and he knows that this matter is quite dangerous, and even hides a murderous intention, but he can only gamble.

If the person behind the scenes here is Voldemort, then there is nothing to say, although Voldemort has a perverse temperament and a ruthless style, he also needs servants, and it is a good umbrella for him.

If you are lucky enough to test the waters and get out of the water, it will not be bad, and you will get a lot of money. And as long as he has money, he can get a hiding place, and he really needs to rest for a while.

The worst-case scenario is that Catherine has secretly defected to the Order of the Phoenix, as one version describes, and if he is caught, he will have to pay the price for killing the Mackinnon family.

Of course, this was the worst case scenario that Marco himself thought it was, and it was even worse, but the source of the situation was too bizarre for Dumbledore to guess.

In this festival full of warm flavors, the old bee is enjoying a large glass of lemon-flavored ice cream in his office.

And in his head, he was thinking about how to deal with the resurgence of the Shafiq family.

Catherine, as he recalled, was not a Slytherin, but was assigned to Ravenclaw by the Sorting Hat, with brains and no ambitions.

In the first half of the Wizarding War, Catherine was still a child, and in the second half she was half-ignorant and had to join in the team, and then it was a nightmarish escape.

This calculation of age can be known that the Wizarding War lasted for eleven years, ended in the winter of eighty-one years, and is now about to be eighty-seven years old, and Catherine is twenty-seven years old, that is, when the Wizarding War began, Catherine was only ten years old, which is not enough to enter Hogwarts.

Dumbledore vividly remembered that Catherine had entered the school a year later than Stanley and left two years later. When she was drawn into the Wizarding War, the war was already in its sixth year, and Voldemort's family was gradually showing signs of victory, and the largest of their formations began.

But on the other hand, it was precisely because of these impressions that he felt that there must be a powerful person standing behind the Shafiq family.

Guardians? Or the Negative?

I don't know the specifics, but he thinks that all this in the Shafiq family is not something Catherine can do, she doesn't have that kind of skills, and pattern.

He was inclined to accept the cooperation of a powerful wizard who walked in the shadows in Catherine's helplessness, and was willing to be his spokesman, even to put her son in it.

"Or maybe it's because of little Kane, who spent his childhood in displacement and death threats, and is so ill that it is said that it will be difficult for him to live to be nine."

If Dumbledore knew what Kane was doing, he would probably not lament his innocence and pity, but would do his best to kill it.

In the dark basement, Kane, who had already helped Marco heal his injuries, stared at Marco and remained silent.

There was no illuminated light, and he couldn't see his fingers, but Marco could see Kane's eyes, because they were glowing, and the sapphire blue crystal was like glowing ice chips, and the pupil was dark gold, as if the years were condensing in it.

Marco bet it's definitely not a pair of human eyes. Voldemort's vertical pikes are too shallow to make it easy to speculate on the roots.

If there is a theme for every peculiar pupil, Voldemort is the fear of inhumanity. And the one in front of me is the depth of endless mystery.

They are all cold and ruthless, but the source is different, Voldemort is condescending contempt, and what is in front of him is the reason that sees through all things.

Kane's body was so shattered that the erosion of the magic spread like a cancer, from his trachea to his vocal cords, making his voice hoarse and lacking the childlike voice of a normal child.

In order to avoid coughing, his voice is also habitually not very high. Hence some of Snape's speaking characteristics: a voice that is only a little higher than a whisper, but it is so penetrating that it can be heard clearly.

"Marco, I know that in the face of life and death, everything else seems to be worthless. But I still feel the need to make you understand something. The core essence of the wizarding war is an adjustment in the distribution of rights and interests in the wizarding world. Many, including Voldemort, are just a footnote, a figurative representation. Whether they are dead or alive now.

Ma Ke frowned secretly, not understanding why the other party suddenly broke with him, but it must be said that the other party's harmonious voice, as if it had the magic of the legendary 'spirit of words', gently knocked on his heart, but caused enough effective concussions that he couldn't help but want to listen and think.

"Fang Li, Shafiq, and Travers are all pure-blood families that have been smeared with excellent smearing from almost the beginning. The reason is simple, if you lose your strength, you lose your dignity, but you occupy your interests and refuse to back down.

"Hiss..." Ma Ke was touched, he subconsciously thought about it seriously, thought about all kinds of past, as well as his own and his family's situation, and found that many things happened that seemed to confirm what the other party said, at least this statement can explain all phenomena without hindrance.

Marco's eyelids drooped, and he fell asleep.

With the slightest bit of approval, Kane's Mind Hypnosis will take effect, and then it will be strengthened until hypnosis is achieved.

Unlike ordinary hypnosis, this enhanced technique emphasizes the conformity of the mind when the target is hypnotized. To put it simply, if the other party is fooled and believes in your evil, then he is basically finished.

Whether it is Stanley or Catherine, they have been distorted from believing in the will, thus opening the road of 'soul molding', of course, being molded soul.

This kind of delicate magic operation can only be broken again through the same or higher level of magic skills, but even then, the consciousness is not the original one, but only conforms to most of the temperament characteristics of the original one. So it is appropriate to say that this person is dead.

Marco? Travers's nasty ruffian-like life came to an early end, and then a new life began...

After this incident, the blonde old man's heart deepened with jealousy.

He wasn't sure that the billowing black smoke that had taken off from Nozawa Castle and eventually returned there was Voldemort, but he was at least sure that Catherine was still connected to the Death Eaters, and that she was a deeply hidden Death Eater herself.

"I knew there was something going on behind this! I had warned them long ago that it was no accident that the Shafiq family were able to flee for four years!

Yes, the old blonde knew more than Dumbledore.

Not only because 'what kind of people have what kind of world they see', but also because the dark creatures, Muggle killers, and mercenaries who hunted down the Shafiq family in the first place were assigned by him and others.

He also suspected that his judgment was wrong because of the smooth sailing of a series of operations after Stanley's surrender.

Can ... now

Although he didn't want to see it, he admitted that the Shafiq family had another guard.

"Who is it? Nathaniel, who was about the same age as Dumbledore for many years and was said to have been tested mentally retarded, or the legendary Black Adam of the previous generation..."

The old blonde didn't bother too much about it. Whether there are guardians or not is the point, and who is not the point.

As long as there is a Guardian, anyone who wants to reach out will have to weigh whether they can afford to pay that heavy price.

It's not just the guardians, but there are other families, if they show their weak state, the previous allies don't mind fighting each other, tearing the flesh and blood, and even completely pushing people off the cliff is not impossible.

Cooperate but beware, this is the ecological relationship between pure-blood families.

So many times, the words can be said passionately, but the work needs to be a little more cautious.

"Let yourself stand in the sun completely, and use the intruder to forge a dark reputation. Good calculation! The blonde old man silently considered the previous actions against the Shafiq family, and thought with itchy teeth but helpless resentment.

"It's time to break some of the threads. A Blood Baron, an Alpha Wolf, they can die. The old man with a gloomy face turned around and disappeared in a sudden stream of yellow sand...
