It was a long-lost pattern. The triangle represented the invisibility cloak, the circle represented the Resurrection Stone, and the vertical line in the middle represented the infinitely powerful Elder Wand. Three magical items put together, collectively known as the Deathly Hallows.
So... yes, this symbol is called the Mark of the Deathly Hallows.
However, when the tall black figure on the main seat drew this mark casually, not many people could really understand what he wanted to express at once - even Hermione, Harry and others present were familiar with it. The meaning behind this mark, but John was the only one who quickly realized why the Lord of Living Corpses in front of him took out the Mark of the Deathly Hallows at this time.
And obviously, the only one the other party wants to wake up here is John.
"No need for me to remind you more, right?"
When everyone, including John, was still trying to figure out the meaning of this mark appearing here, the Lord of the Living Corpses spoke again.
"Think about it and figure out what exactly you should do next - you are a smart human being and I'm sure you can figure it out."
After saying this, he casually waved away the Deathly Hallows mark in the air, and then picked up the wine glass again.
"It's quite late to say that today's dinner party is almost over... Miss Granger, Mr. Potter, and everyone, please go back and rest after drinking this glass of wine! Everyone has worked hard these days, but we Not all of our enemies have fallen yet, and cooperation will continue for a while—don’t bring fatigue into the next battle!”
After saying that, I saw him drink up the wine that had been refilled at an unknown time. Then, regardless of whether other people present should drink the glass of wine, he stood up and walked to the main entrance of the restaurant from the side of the long table. direction. Upon seeing this, the twin girls, Bai Ye and the few living corpses who often followed him also hurriedly left the table and followed him.
Just the next moment he walked calmly behind John's seat, John, who was still standing in front of the table in silence and contemplation, finally seemed to react suddenly and suddenly turned his head to look at his tall back.
"Your Excellency, I—"
"Let's talk to Miss Granger and the others! Since they are all smart people, there will be something to gain."
The other party did not stop or turn around, he just waved his hand casually and left these words. Then there was no chance for John to continue asking, and he quickly left from the gate.
Not long after, as the remaining high-level zombies in the restaurant got up and left one after another due to the departure of their master, only John, Hermione and other humans were left in the originally full hall, looking at each other in silence.
I don't know how long it took - in fact, it probably wasn't too long - suddenly, Harry, who had been silent at this banquet today, cleared his throat, breaking the silence.
"Sarah, what you mentioned just now... Well, I want to ask, what happened during the three days we were away?"
As soon as the words fell, Sarah seemed to be about to say something, but Hermione raised her hand again, temporarily interrupting the conversation between the two. Then, everyone saw that she had raised her head to look at John standing opposite, and said with a serious face:
"Reintroducing me, I am Hermione Granger. I was born in Hogwarts. Currently, as the leader and pioneer of the European Wizards' Resistance Alliance, I am fighting here with all my companions to solve this disaster. Since you We came here regardless of the risk of our lives, so I believe we will not be enemies... And now, Mr. Stewart, maybe we should talk about the Mark of the Deathly Hallows first, what do you think?"
After Hermione finished speaking, John looked at her with a frown. After a moment, he sat back on the chair with a dejected expression and nodded slowly.
"Miss Granger, I know you, and I probably know some of the things you have done, but... well! Rather, besides you, who else can I talk to now?"
As he said this, he shook his head with a wry smile while feeling depressed.
"I wonder if you have ever heard of the case that happened in the American wizarding world ten years ago?"
…
An old case from ten years ago is actually an old story that has been buried in the past for many people, including those involved in it. But as long as those involved in the case are still alive, someone will always remember them.
John was half of the people involved, so he naturally remembered it; and besides him, there was another woman in a French community across the strait at this moment who also remembered it very clearly.
That's Tia Snape.
"...Severus, I...I'm fine."
Tia looked at her brother today who was sitting on the old armchair not far away, looking at his pale and cold face as before, and whispered.
The next moment, she saw her brother purse his lips and click his tongue - that was a habitual action that the other party would often make when he was impatient.
"I have eyes." The other party said coldly.
Immediately afterwards, the room became quiet again, and there was an inexplicable and subtle atmosphere between the two. To be honest, Tia had always been repelled and afraid of this kind of tightness, but today, she even felt at ease despite being nervous.
For no other reason than because not long after I sent the letter, my brother came. Even though the other party had a cold face when he arrived, the uneasiness and fear that had filled her heart not long ago had completely disappeared with the arrival of the other party.
After a while, Severus, who had also pursed his thin lips and remained silent for a long time, took the initiative and said:
"I have read your letter, but it is not detailed enough. Now please tell me in detail in front of me - what happened in the case in New York ten years ago? What happened in the end? Ended? Also, what role did the Stewart family play in that case?"
"Ah... oh," Tia was stunned for a moment, then came back to her senses and nodded, "You should have read the letter. I went to New York when the second grade started, and then I met a guy named Ai Lisa's witch... you know, I didn't know at the time that she was actually a dark wizard... No, even I didn't know that she was a wizard at first, I just thought she was also a homeless person. At that time, she saw I was living on the streets alone and didn’t know anything. I was starving because I couldn’t get anything to eat, so they took me in temporarily and took me to wander the streets of New York with me... "
