In the surveillance video from the previous night, a figure wearing a cloak and a hood appeared on the turret of the castle.
This figure suddenly appeared in Edinburgh Castle, obviously an apparition.
From the figure, Scott could tell that it was a lady.
In the picture, the lady wrapped in a black robe did not stay, but only appeared for a short second and then disappeared again.
Scott quickly switched the perspective of other “eyes” monitoring.
It took him some time to find the figure again in the old palace in the upper area of the castle.
The Leitz Hall on the first floor of this palace is a banquet hall, and there are also suites for the king and queen, which are now mainly used to display royal treasures.
The second floor was transformed into the “Light of Scotland Exhibition Hall”, which is a place to collect and display items related to royal power and coronation ceremonies such as the Scottish crown, scepter, sword and stone of destiny.
At the entrance, there is a group of portraits of Scottish kings of all dynasties, as well as sculptures recreating the scene of the king’s coronation.
The lady who sneaked into the castle stood in front of the portraits of the kings.
Scott enlarged the picture a little and observed her carefully.
At this point, the lady finally took off the hood that covered half of her face, revealing her true face.
It was a face that Scott was somewhat familiar with, but he could not remember the identity of the lady at the first time.
“Respected Lady Slytherin.”
She gave a respectful wizard salute to the huge portrait of the king.
“Trinity Rohr requests to speak with you.”
Hearing the voice coming from the [Magic Mirror], Scott remembered her identity.
This was Caitlin Rohr’s mother and Elijah Carrow’s aunt. Scott had seen her in the courtroom where Elijah Carrow was tried.
It was no wonder that Scott did not recognize the lady at first sight. Compared with the last time he saw her, she looked very different.
When Scott first saw her, the lady was still a mother who was heartbroken after losing her daughter. She did not look strong and her husband was the backbone.
But now, although she is skinny and haggard, the madness in her eyes is a bit chilling.
At this moment, the huge portrait moved.
The whole row of Scottish kings in the painting moved to the left and right, standing on both sides, and a new figure appeared in the center of the picture.
Wearing a green robe with wide sleeves, a translucent black veil covering the upper half of her face, and a glittering silver snake-shaped jewelry on her neck.
It was Medea who had not been seen for a long time.
“Why are you here, Trinity.”
“Dear lady.”
Mrs. Rawl took a step forward and got closer to Medea in the painting.
“How long do I need to wait?” Her voice was a little hoarse, “I’m going crazy.”
Medea was not angry at her almost offensive behavior.
She just whispered, “Soon, Trinity. I promise to avenge your husband and other dead companions.”
“I can take revenge now!” Mrs. Rawl said a little crazy, “I can do it at any time, even if…”
“Patience, Trinity, patience.”
Medea’s voice was very soft.
“We need you to continue to lurk in the ranks of the Death Eaters, get close to Tom, and gain his trust. You are doing a good job now.”
“They don’t doubt me. I am just a poor woman who lost her husband and daughter.”
Mrs. Rowe murmured.
“I told them that I left the All-Witch Council because you failed to save my husband.”
“The murderer who caused me to lose my daughter, Elijah Carrow, and my cousins, the twin brothers and sisters of the Carrow family, have all been killed, so I chose to join the mysterious man in order to save the Rowe family.”
“I also said that I would choose one of the remaining young twin sisters of the Carrow family, Flora and Hestia, to inherit the Rowe family.”
“They believed it.”
At this point, Mrs. Rowe’s face changed and she messed up her hair.
“But I can’t bear it any longer. Every time, I want to take out the wand and kill them! Especially…”
“Calm down, Trinity.” Medea said, “Don’t think about it. You should know how powerless you are in front of Tom. You don’t have any chance.”
“Yes, I know.”
Mrs. Rowe lowered her head, her messy hair covering her face.
“I can only carefully hide my true thoughts. If I go on like this, I don’t know how long I can hold on.”
“I believe you, Trinity. You are the most outstanding witch I have ever seen. Everyone underestimates you. Your brain blocking technique can even deceive Tom.”
Medea’s voice was very gentle.
“Remember my promise. Soon, I will be able to recover soon.”
“Really?” Mrs. Rowe raised her head suddenly, “Oh, dear lady, I am not questioning you, but…”
“I know.”
Medea in the painting still looked at her gently.
“I know everything. You have sacrificed a lot, Trinity. Do you remember what I said?”
“Remember, I remember everything!”
Mrs. Rowe knelt on the ground and reached out to touch the corner of Medea’s robe in the portrait.
She looked up, as if she was looking at her own god.
“You said you could bring my husband and daughter back to me.”
Her eyes burst into intense hope.
“Yes, I can. As long as I lift the curse, I can free your husband’s soul trapped by the curse.”
Medea’s tone was full of bewitchment.
“As long as I kill Tom, I can completely complete the recovery.”
“Don’t forget, the Resurrection Stone, one of the Deathly Hallows, is in my hand.”
“That is a treasure passed down to me by my father, Salazar Slytherin.”
“Only the revived me can activate its energy.”
“At that time, even if it is your daughter, I can easily bring her back from the other world.”
She bent slightly and stared at Mrs. Rolle.
“Do you believe me, Trinity.”
“I believe, I believe you!”
Mrs. Rolle kept nodding.
It’s like a drowning man grabbing a life-saving straw and refusing to let go.
“Then continue to be patient.” Medea straightened up, “This is not for me, nor for the entire witch guild, but for your husband and daughter.”
“I…I understand.” Mrs. Rohr continued to nod.
Medea said softly: “Remember, don’t take risks, don’t be impulsive, Trinity, you must survive. Don’t you want to use the best attitude to welcome the return of your husband and daughter?”
At this time, Mrs. Rolle had completely calmed down.
She stood up.
“I understand, dear lady. I will do as you say, and I will use my best attitude to welcome the return of my husband and daughter.”
“Very good.” Medea nodded with satisfaction, “Go, Trinity. In order not to be discovered by the Death Eaters and Tom, don’t come here easily. It is very dangerous.”
“I will comply with your wishes, my dear Lady Slytherin.”
Mrs. Rohr bowed again and then apparated away.
After watching this drama full of connotations, Scott felt a little complicated.
It’s obvious that Medea is deceiving Mrs. Rolle, because Scott knows full well that the Resurrection Stone can’t resurrect any of the dead.
Mrs. Rowe was preoccupied with the resurrection of her husband and daughter, and became Medea’s pawn buried beside Voldemort.
Although she didn’t know how effective this move would be, Medea had obviously made arrangements.
Scott continued to stare into the mirror.
Because after Mrs. Rolle left, Medea in the portrait did not disappear.
After a while, two more figures in green robes appeared and bowed to her in the portrait.
“Good evening, distinguished lady.”
“Good evening.” Medea smiled slightly, “my friends.”
The person opened his hood and revealed his true face.
One of them was someone Scott knew, Milton’s stepmother, Mrs. Zabini.
But the other middle-aged wizard was someone he had never seen before.
“Madam,” said Madame Zabini, “do you really think Trini Tirol is worthy of your trust?”
Medea said coldly: “Of course, she has no choice in order to resurrect her husband and daughter.”
“Oh, I’m not questioning her choice, madam.” Mrs. Zabini smiled coquettishly, “I just don’t trust her ability.”
Medea smiled too.
She was not offended by Mrs. Zabini’s questioning.
She just said; “Just wait and see, I’m sure Trinity will surprise us.”
“Since you said so, I can only look forward to her performance.” Mrs. Zabini said softly.
“Well, you’d better mind your own business, Zabini.”
The middle-aged wizard on the side spoke.
“It has been so long, and even one Graves has not been completely tamed. This makes me doubt your past record.”
“Greengrass.”
Mrs. Zabini named the middle-aged wizard.
“What’s wrong, are you pitying poor Trinity?”
Mr. Greengrass said seriously: “No, I just don’t think you should question any of Ms. Slytherin’s decisions.”
“oh.”
Mrs. Zabini stretched out her hand to cover her mouth and bowed to the enchanting Medea in the portrait.
“I’m sorry, my dear lady.”
“I don’t mind.” Medea said, “I said, we are friends, you don’t have to obey my words.”
Mrs. Zabini obviously did not dare to take her words seriously.
“Thank you for your indulgence, ma’am.”
Although there is a lingering charm and frivolity in her every move, her attitude towards Medea is unmistakably deferential.
But when she turned to face Mr. Greengrass, her attitude changed dramatically.
“Like you said, mind your own business and don’t dictate my affairs, Greengrass.”
As she spoke, she twisted her plump body forward and got closer to Mr. Greengrass.
“Unless…” She changed to a teasing tone, “You are very interested in the matter between me and Graves?”
“Go away, Zabini!”
Mr. Greengrass took two steps back, frowning in disgust.
Mrs. Zabini didn’t care, but smiled in victory.
“It’s useless.” She said contemptuously.
“Well, the purpose of your coming here should not be to quarrel with each other, my friends.” Medea spoke.
“Yes, ma’am.”
Mrs. Zabini quickly looked at Medea in the painting.
“So far, Graves has not betrayed you, but I think he obviously can’t let go of his Muggle wife and half-blood son.”
When she mentioned Mr. Graves, her tone was also full of contempt.
Especially when she mentioned Milton and his mother, she showed even more disgust.
“Thank you for your hard work.” Medea said, “I’m sorry, you can’t leave Graves for the time being.”
Mrs. Zabini smiled indifferently.
“It doesn’t matter, it’s just a show anyway, but…”
Her face darkened.
“The old guy in the Graves family keeps his things very tightly, and it seems that even his children don’t know about it.”
Hearing this, Scott was refreshed.
Is this why Medea targeted the Graves family and let Mrs. Zabini marry Mr. Graves?
Because Milton’s grandfather has something important hidden in his hands?
“Don’t worry, you still have plenty of time.” Medea said.
“I will find a way to get that thing, ma’am.” Mrs. Zabini said, “I don’t believe that old guy can hide in his house forever.”
Medea nodded gently.
“My dear lady, with our help, the Ministry of Magic has captured another group of Death Eaters, but You-Know-Who has never appeared.” Mr. Greengrass said.
“I can imagine that.” Medea didn’t seem surprised. “Tom got the blood of that child, so he must not have studied it thoroughly.”
“I really can’t understand why the dreaded Dark Lord would attach so much importance to an underage child.”
Mrs. Zabini said in a mocking tone.
“‘Savior’, ‘The Boy Who Lived’, Harry Potter, did the great Dark Lord take the hype of those ignorant people about that child seriously?”
Mr. Greengrass said, “You-Know-Who did taste failure because of Harry Potter in the past, and there must be a reason for it.”
Mrs. Zabini didn’t care.
“No normal person would believe that You-Know-Who’s failure was really because of that child. He was just a baby at that time.”
She expressed her point of view.
“Potter is also a wizard family with a long history. Perhaps it was the Potters’ dying counterattack that led to You-Know-Who’s last failure.”
Greengrass shook his head in disapproval.
“This is not enough to prove why Dumbledore attaches so much importance to the boy.”
“Dumbledore has always felt that the wizarding world needs a banner.”
Mrs. Zabini also explained this.
“It used to be him, but he is about to die of old age. It just so happens that Harry Potter, who has such a great reputation in the wizarding world, is his chosen successor.”
“No matter what the reason is.”
Medea said.
“It is a fact that Tom and Dumbledore attach importance to the child. What we want is not speculation, but the real reason.”
Mrs. Zabini and Mr. Greengrass bowed their heads quickly.
“Dear lady.”
“Give us some more time.”
“We will investigate this matter clearly.”
Sorry, there are a few updates today.
There will be 8,000 updates tomorrow.
