Hogwarts Raven's Claw

Chapter 220: The Murderer Dolphin

Godric's Hollow is very beautiful at dusk.

The golden afterglow of the sun shines on the small town, as if covering it with a layer of golden gauze, making it look so holy.

Mike walked on the streets of the town with a smile on his face. Everyone he met greeted him warmly and gave him some small things as gifts.

At this time, Mike would respond with a bright smile, take the item and say thank you.

After finally saying goodbye to these enthusiastic old people, Mike finally breathed a sigh of relief.

It's not that he didn't try to refuse, but the old people in this town, perhaps because their children and grandchildren worked away from home all year round, were particularly fond of this handsome young man, so no matter how Mike refused, they would not give up.

Rubbing his cheeks which were a little stiff from smiling, Mike put on a smile again and walked towards Professor Flitwick's house.

Although his own villa had been renovated, he still went to Flitwick's house for dinner every day in order to spend more time with Professor Flitwick, the respectable old man.

However, just as Mike took another step, a long-lost voice suddenly sounded in his heart.

"Mike, the nightmare seeds in Dolphin have discovered something."

Mike's body stiffened, then returned to normal, muttering silently:

'What's the situation?'

'Why don't you see it for yourself? It's hard for me to describe it clearly.'

Looking at the Flitwick family that had appeared in his field of vision, the smile on Mike's face slowly disappeared. He turned a corner expressionlessly, came to the shade of a tree nearby, and slowly lay down.

After putting the pile of things in his arms aside, Mike closed his eyes and silently said:

'Come on, let me see.'

The next moment, a ray of light suddenly appeared in the darkness in front of Mike, and a noisy sound came from his ears. Then, his vision became clearer and Mike finally saw the scene in front of him clearly.

This is an old villa, like the ancestral home of a wealthy family, which can be seen from the spacious rooms and the materials used for the floor and walls. However, due to years of disrepair, the villa now looks shabby, and there is a lot of mold growing in the gaps between the floor and the wall. It seems that the owner of this house does not take good care of it.

A sloppy middle-aged man with a big beard was shouting angrily at him. As he shouted, spit kept flying out of his mouth full of yellow teeth, and a lot of it even fell on Mike.

Mike couldn't help but frown.

At this time, his hearing finally recovered, and he heard the middle-aged man shouting:

"…If you're still a man, clench your fist and hit me in the nose! You coward! Your damn classmate made a lot of money with our secret recipe, and we can only live in this moldy and shabby place! All this is your fault! Trash!"

After saying that, the middle-aged man slapped Dolphin hard on the face, knocking him to the ground.

Mike is now attached to Dolphin through the nightmare seed, so he can clearly feel Dolphin's emotional changes at the moment.

He thought that Dolphin would be a little angry anyway, but to his surprise, there was nothing but fear in Dolphin's heart at this moment.

Dolphin was so scared that he was shaking all over and couldn't even stand up from the ground. He could only cover his swollen cheeks and cry.

"Tomorrow! Tomorrow you will follow me to find that damn classmate of yours! Do you hear me?" The middle-aged man looked at Dolphin with disgust and continued, "If you can't get back all the money he made from using our formula, you'll be beaten to death by me!"

"Got it! Father!"

Dolphin answered the middle-aged man with sobs, and then continued to huddle in the corner and shiver.

The middle-aged man whom Dolphin called father looked at Dolphin's cowardly look with even more displeasure in his eyes. Finally, he simply stopped looking at him and sat back at the table and picked up the bottle of wine on the table and drank it.

The liquid in the bottle quickly disappeared as his Adam's apple kept moving. He put down the bottle only after he had finished the whole bottle of beer. He looked up at the dilapidated ceiling above his head with a dazed look.

"As long as I get the money back, the family's glory will continue in my hands! Hahaha!" The middle-aged man's eyes were full of bloodshot, and his eyes gradually brightened. "After that, I don't have to live in this rotten place anymore, and I don't have to face that yellow-faced woman anymore, and I don't have to drink this low-quality beer!"

After saying that, he smashed the bottle violently. Many of the glass fragments flew in front of Dolphin, which made Dolphin very scared but helpless. He could only watch his drunk father's teeth trembling uncontrollably.

"Who are you calling a yellow-faced woman?"

A shrill voice suddenly came, and then a middle-aged woman in a coarse cloth dress walked in.

The man and woman soon started arguing, which gradually turned into a physical fight. Mike stayed in Dolphin's body, watching everything silently.

'what to do? ’

Papi the Raven asked silently, while Mike continued to remain silent without answering.

Seeing this, he almost understood what was going on. The two people in front of him should be Dolphin's parents. Dolphin's father had obviously discovered the matter of Dolphin's magic drink and wanted to come to blackmail him.

To be honest, he has seen many people like this. Most of them can be convinced by reason (physics), but there are still a few stubborn ones who are more difficult to deal with.

The Dolphin family in front of him was obviously such a tough guy, because no matter what, they were all old-fashioned pure-bloods, and he himself was a Muggle-born wizard. It was self-evident who the Ministry of Magic would favor at that time.

Of course, there are many ways to resolve this peacefully, such as giving them money until they are satisfied, or using the power of the Free family to pressure them.

but.

Is it necessary to go through so much trouble?
"Kill them all, don't leave any evidence behind."

'Understood. '

Mike gave the order in a murderous tone, and Papi the Raven readily complied.

Immediately afterwards, the nightmare seeds quickly sprouted under Papi's control.

----------------

Dolphin felt that everything he saw had changed.

The home, which was usually shabby but warm, suddenly turned into a slaughterhouse full of blood and flesh, and his quarreling parents turned into horrible monsters holding butcher knives, huddled together to share a human thigh.

'Kill them, or they'll eat you later!'

'Kill them, or they'll eat you later!'

……

A voice with a strange tone kept repeating this sentence in his ears, which made him unable to help but cover his ears.

However, this had no effect. The voice seemed to come directly from his mind and was still clear as ever.

This voice seemed to have some kind of magic, which made him gradually forget the true identities of the two monsters.

Finally, Dolphin couldn't stand it anymore. With his red eyes wide open, he unconsciously grabbed a piece of broken wine bottle beside him and pointed it at the two monsters with trembling hands.

'Yes, that's it, kill them and you'll be safe!'

"Kill him... and you'll be safe!"

Dolphin muttered to himself, the expression on his face gradually became ferocious, and finally he rushed forward with a roar.

"Puff!" The sound of glass entering flesh was clearly heard, and Dolphin accurately inserted the piece of bottle fragment into the neck of one of the monsters.

Watching the monster struggling and slowly falling down, a happy smile appeared on Dolphin's face.

"It looks so scary! But it turns out to be just a paper tiger!"

As if to give himself courage, Dolphin roared, pulled out the broken bottle, and then inserted the broken bottle into the eye of another monster regardless of the black liquid spurting out of the monster's neck.

"Die! Monster! Die!"

Dolphin kept making inhuman roars, and kept thrusting the broken bottle in his hand into the monster's body. After a while, he had stabbed the monster into a blood gourd, and it could no longer move.

"There are two old men upstairs. Go kill them!"

"understood!"

……

Under the shade of the tree, Mike opened his eyes, slowly stood up and walked towards the Flitwick house not far away.

He had already returned when Dolphin launched the first blow. After all, the next scene would definitely be very bloody, and he was not a devil and could not remain unmoved in the face of such a bloody scene.

Therefore, in order not to affect my appetite later, it is better to come back early.

I hope Papi can do a good job on this matter. He is busy enough now.

Thinking of this, Mike smiled and pushed open the door of Flitwick's house.

"Young Master Mike! The old master and those two slobs are already waiting for you in the restaurant!"

As soon as Mike came in, the house-elf Lolo came over and enthusiastically helped Mike brush off the dirt he had just gotten from lying on the lawn.

Mike smiled and leaned over to touch Lolo's big bald head. After saying thank you, he continued walking towards the restaurant.

However, Luo Luo suddenly grabbed Mike's hand and whispered, "Little Master Mike, that old slob is very angry now. It seems to be because of your relationship with that little slob."

Mike was startled when he heard this, but then he reacted.

I guess Vismir must have found out that I had tricked Arthur into working as a security guard in the factory.

"Thank you, Lolo!"

After thanking Lolo solemnly again, Mike walked into the restaurant under Lolo's gaze.

As soon as he entered the restaurant, a rich aroma of food hit him in the face, and Mike, who was already hungry, couldn't help but take a deep breath.

Flitwick and the other three who were arguing in the restaurant suddenly became quiet after seeing Mike.

Mike looked at the three people who were looking at him in confusion, spread his hands and made a helpless gesture and said, "What's wrong with everyone? Am I so handsome today that you don't recognize me?"

"You still have the nerve to ask what's wrong! I'll beat you to death!"

Vesemir, who was sitting in the innermost seat, was so angry that he picked up the fork at hand and threw it at Mike.

But he must have forgotten that Mike had the duel champion badge. The fork whizzed against the transparent shield as he threw it with all his strength, and finally fell weakly to the ground, making a crisp sound.

"Vesemir! You bastard! How dare you do that!"

When Flitwick saw this, he couldn't bear it any longer, so he stood up and went to settle the score with Vesemir.

Seeing that the two old men were about to fight, Mike naturally couldn't just sit there and watch, so he pulled out a chair and slowly sat down, saying, "Don't get excited, it's just Arthur's work, we can talk about it."

Flitwick and Vesemir listened to what was said. Vesemir's eyes widened with anger and he said fiercely, "You actually tricked my students into working as security guards for you! Tell me, what's there to discuss?"

After saying that, he glared at Arthur who was standing beside him.

Forced by his teacher's aura, Arthur shrank in his chair like a child who had made a mistake and looked at Mike with expectant eyes.

Now Mike is his only hope. Mike had promised before that he would deal with his teacher, and now it is Mike's turn to fulfill his promise.

However, Arthur did not hold out much hope for this. After all, he knew his teacher too well. He was a nasty old stubborn man who would not change his decision just because of a few words from others.

The atmosphere in the restaurant instantly became extremely serious, but Mike remained calm in such an atmosphere. He continued to calmly touch the steak on the plate in front of him and said nonchalantly:

"Why don't you come to my factory and be a senior security supervisor? I'll raise your salary to 100 gold galleons per month."

"no!"

Vesemir rejected Mike without hesitation, and Arthur's eyes dimmed when he heard the words.

But Vismir paused and then raised two fingers towards Mike, saying, "I want 200 gold galleons per person per month!"

"Forehead"

Arthur looked at his teacher in surprise, wondering if he had heard it wrong.

"No problem, but it's not good for you two, master and apprentice, to get the same salary. I'll give you an extra 50 gold galleons!"

"Great! It's settled then. We'll sign the contract after dinner!"

The anger on Vesemir's face immediately turned into a smile. He sat down again, picked up the knife and fork that Lolo handed over, and started cutting the steak.

Arthur, who was standing by, had not reacted yet. He stared at his teacher blankly and asked stupidly:

"Teacher, you...how come you agreed so easily?"

"Foolish boy, you stupid troll signed an indenture with someone, what can I do as a teacher? I am worried about you, so I have no choice but to go with you." Vesemir threw down his knife and fork and hit Arthur on the head with his fist, cursing, "Also, even if you sign an indenture, the price you signed is too low, isn't it? Do you know how much a clerk in the Ministry of Magic earns every month?"

Arthur shook his head.

"50 Galleons a month! Is your brain full of slugs? Are you only worth 50 Galleons a month?" Vesemir knocked Arthur again. "It's a good thing I'm here, otherwise you would have been sold and would have to count the money!"

Arthur suddenly realized what was going on. He glared at Mike but then put on a smiling face and diligently helped his teacher serve the food. Although his teacher had just hit him twice, it was for his own good and he was not angry at all.

His action undoubtedly stole Lolo's job, which made the simple house-elf very angry.

But Arthur was Professor Flitwick's guest, so he could only hide aside and sulk silently.

Mike and Professor Flitwick looked at each other and laughed.

Mike could actually see that Professor Flitwick didn't want his old friend to continue wandering. Originally, he wanted to let Arthur enter Hogwarts, but Arthur was not a wizard.

Now that Mike has made arrangements, he doesn't have to worry about it anymore.

"Now that the misunderstanding has been resolved, let's celebrate! I still have a bottle of 82 Fire Whiskey, let's kill him tonight! Mike, you should drink a little too, I allow you to drink tonight!"
