Chapter 12 Where did the scarf come from?

Chapter 12 Where did the scarf come from?

When Tobias fell to the ground, a flattering smile was still on his face, but he was already dead.

Snape was frightened by this scene and his face turned pale.

Although he hoped Tobias would die countless times in his heart, he never expected that he would actually die.

"Andy, look how scared you have made our little wizard."

Redmond looked at the boy's face full of fear, a malicious smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, he walked up to Snape and directly pulled off the scarf from his neck.

"It would be a waste to give such a nice scarf to you."

He put the gray scarf directly around his neck and asked Andy, "Does it look good?"

Andy looked at him with disdain and said, "What's so good about a Muggle scarf? When we give this kid to the boss, he will definitely be very happy. You can buy whatever you want."

Thinking about the gold Galleons that were about to be obtained, Redmond squinted his eyes with joy. He felt unhappy when he saw Snape staring at the scarf around his neck.

She walked over and kicked him in the chest, knocking him to the ground. She crushed his cheek with the sole of her shoe and said unhappily, "What's that look in your eyes, little brat? I'm willing to use your scarf, you should feel honored."

Snape felt that it was beginning to be difficult to breathe. He met Tobias's eyes that were still open, and he could hardly breathe.

"That's enough, don't kill anyone." Andy reminded.

Redmond then withdrew his foot and began to think about how to use the gold galleons he had obtained.

Snape felt dizzy and the scene in front of him became blurry.

Andy retracted the wand pointing at Snape and said to Redmond, "Let's go quickly. Don't let the Muggles see us."

Upon hearing this, Redmond immediately and roughly grabbed the embarrassed Snape under his armpit and Apparated away from there.

Soon the people in the room disappeared, leaving only Tobias's body lying quietly on the ground.

Jiang Li returned home before noon and brought back a house-elf named Mia.

She thought Snape would be waiting for her at the door, but she didn't see him there.

Could it be that he came and found that she was not there, so he went back?

"Master, do you have any instructions Mia?"

Mia rubbed her hands nervously, looking at Jiang Li expectantly with her big eyes and asked carefully.

"Except for the two rooms in the basement, don't touch them. Clean the other rooms and prepare lunch. I'll be back with some people later, so don't yell."

Knowing that the mental states of house-elves were rather strange, Jiang Li did not say any honorifics.

"Master, don't worry, Mia will definitely clean the room thoroughly!"

Mia said excitedly, as if she had received some kind of reward.

Jiang Li didn't say much. When she went to Diagon Alley to bring Mia back, she just said thank you, but Mia went crazy in the street and smashed her face with her hands, saying that she wanted to punish herself, which scared Jiang Li.

She went to 19 Spinner's End to find Snape.

It's already January, and the weather is still extremely cold. Few people go out in such bad weather.

"Knock knock knock."

Jiang Li knocked on the door.

A few seconds later, a woman with shabby clothes and a tired look opened the door. There was obvious surprise in her eyes when she saw her.

Jiang Li smiled at the woman and said, "Hello, I'm here to see Xifu. Is he home?"

Irene was stunned for two seconds before she came back to her senses from Jiang Li's handsome appearance. She quickly replied, "He went out and hasn't come back yet."

"Then could you please tell him that I'm back. If he needs to study new courses today, he can come directly to my place." Jiang Li said in a gentle voice.

She could feel that the woman in front of her was also a wizard. Although she found it strange that she lived such a miserable life despite being so capable, she had no intention of asking about it.

Hearing this, Irene thought of her son's smiling face during this period of time, and realized that her son's transformation might be related to the person in front of her. Her attitude softened a little, and she nodded and said, "Okay, I'll tell him. Please take care of him."

"He's very well-behaved and doesn't need my care." Jiang Li looked at Irene with an unclear gaze and said slowly, "In fact, sometimes I don't want children to be so sensible, because being sensible means that the environment around him forces him to endure and learn to please, isn't it?"

When Irene heard this, an embarrassed expression appeared on her face, not knowing how to respond.

Fortunately, Jiang Li didn't say anything else and just left.

Jiang Li walked slowly along the street, wondering about the probability of meeting Snape.

Maybe she was unlucky and didn't even meet Snape when she got home.

Mia is a very diligent house-elf who keeps the entire house spotless.

As soon as he got home, Jiang Li had a hot meal.

Even though it’s still British dark cuisine, at least she doesn’t have to do it, right?

Jiang Li took a bite of the famous British dish called "Looking Up at the Stars", was silent for a few seconds, and said to Mia: "I want to change the taste. Go to a nearby Chinese restaurant and learn how to cook their dishes. Come back and cook for me."

Mia really liked it when her master told her to do things, which made her feel accomplished, so she just snapped her fingers and left.

Looking at the dishes on the table, Jiang Li completely lost his appetite and took a few books from the bookshelf.

She felt that her previous thinking was wrong. She always wanted to make a communicator based on magic alchemy, but in fact she could just refer to the Muggle communication tools.

Jiang Li sat cross-legged on the sofa and studied books on information and communication seriously.

I have to say that Muggles are really amazing. They actually invented the telephone.

By the time she finished reading, it was already dark outside and Mia hadn't returned home yet.

Jiang Li thought of Mia's dark dishes and decided to go out for a bite.

She put on a light-colored yak wool coat and when she reached out to grab a scarf from the rack in the entrance, she grabbed nothing. Then she remembered that she had given the scarf to Snape, so she simply walked out without wearing it.

After dark, there was almost no one walking on the streets. Only a few dim street lights emitted a faint glow, illuminating the streets.

Jiang Li stomped his feet on the ground a few times, felt a little warmer, and walked towards the nearest restaurant.

As a result, the restaurant closed early because of the cold weather, and Jiang Li could only buy bread from a nearby bakery.

She was walking back with a big bag full of bread and saw a man in a black wizard robe walking hurriedly.

Jiang Li casually glanced at the other person and happened to see the gray scarf tied around his neck. He immediately stopped.

"All petrified!"

Jiang Li directly used a silent spell on the wizard.

The wizard, who had been in a hurry just now, froze.

Jiang Li held the bread bag in one hand and walked up to the wizard. He used his wand to lift the hood of his wizard robe and saw his face clearly.

It was the wizard I met that day.

"Where did you get your scarf?" Jiang Li asked in a cold voice.

The man did not answer her, but looked at her with some doubt, wondering how he had offended her.

Seeing that he couldn't get anything out of him, Jiang Li directly used the mind-reading spell on him.

In the man's memory, she saw Snape, covered in blood, being locked in a dog cage and sent to a manor, where she saw a man with bloodshot eyes...

After reading the man's memory, Jiang Li exuded a cold aura and looked at the man as if he was a dead person.

Redmond watched her wand emit green fluorescence, his eyes full of fear and begging.
