A broken Hogwarts

Chapter 28 Mind Reading Magic
According to the route map drawn from the Weasley twin brothers, Owen made two gestures on the map he drew, and planned a route for himself to explore other areas to the greatest extent.

As for the cliched method just now, of course it's not Legilimency, it's just micro-expression psychology.As a magician, it is normal to be proficient in psychology.

Turning around on the third floor, Owen took a deep breath and looked at the time. It was already past midnight.

"The Defense Against the Dark Arts office is ahead, um, let's go around." Owen glanced at the map, "Then go up the stairs on the other side to the fourth floor."

Even though he was searching the castle as quickly as possible, Owen knew that his chances of finding that damn fax machine tonight were probably slim.If you only rely on one person's strength to find it, the factor of luck will occupy a large proportion.

Nothing unexpected happened, and Owen climbed up to the fourth floor through the stairs on the right hand side of the third floor.He glanced at the forbidden restricted corridor from a distance. Everything in the straight and dark corridor could be seen at a glance, and there was no trace of a fax machine.As for the door at the end, Owen didn't intend to go in and search for it. He didn't want to have an intimate contact with a big three-headed dog.

He explored aimlessly along the route he had drawn up in his mind. The lights in the castle were dim in the middle of the night, and only the candles lit on both sides of the corridor gave off a faint orange light, which could only illuminate a small area, but not enough light. The place where I arrived was even darker.

The shadows of people flicker and flicker under the flickering candlelight, as if they have an independent life.The area where the light source cannot cover is pitch black, and there are strange rustling noises from time to time, as if some monster is peeping out and is about to move.

"It's a bit hairy..." Owen rubbed his arms, and suddenly felt that the temperature around him became a lot colder for no reason. Something was really about to come out of the darkness in front of him!
He paused and drew his wand, the temperature in the air getting colder and colder.The darkness ahead surged, and a faint silver light gradually emerged, like a coquettish and cold silver fire.Gradually, the light source is getting closer and closer, slowly converging into the shape of a person.

A familiar ghost floated over silently, seeming to glance at Owen with haughty eyes.It was a slender ghostly lady, floating a few inches above the ground, with long curly hair reaching her waist and a floor-length gown, and she was extremely beautiful, but haughty.

"Phew, Ms. Grey, good evening." Owen recognized the Ravenclaw ghost, and put his wand back into his pocket.

Ms. Gray raised her eyebrows. It seemed that she rarely met a student who came out for a night tour in the middle of the night and greeted her so naturally when she came across her.She nodded, didn't speak, and then she was about to leave.

"Please wait a moment, Ms. Gray." Owen quickly walked side by side with a very friendly smile on his face, "The night is so charming, do you want to take a stroll in the castle together?"

Ghosts of Hogwarts!Although this group is easily overlooked, because they can penetrate the walls and explore freely in the castle, this group is definitely the most well-informed existence in Hogwarts!

Irving targeted this group early on, so we might as well start planning from now on.However, starting with the indifferent and arrogant Ms. Gray, it seems that I have chosen the highest difficulty... However, it is more interesting to be challenged.

Ms. Gray cast a sidelong glance at Owen, who could tell she didn't want to ignore him.She said without enthusiasm: "If you want to find out something from me, then you can leave."

Hooked!Owen smiled mysteriously, and said in a low, soothing and seductive tone: "Of course not, if I want to learn something from you, I don't need to go to such trouble at all... I mean, I know the magic of seeing through people's hearts. "

"I'm a ghost." Ms. Gray gave him a faint look.The meaning revealed in her brief words was that even Legilimency would not work well for a ghost like her.

"But I always have some unique abilities." Owen raised his left hand, showed his empty palm and back to Ms. Gray, and then rubbed his fingers together, and a stack of specially-made tarot cards appeared in his hand, unfolding into a A perfect fan.

"If you don't believe me, we can play a game." Owen's tone was light and mysterious, making people feel involuntarily relaxed, yet fascinating.

Ms. Gray looked at him with her head tilted, with a scrutiny and arrogance on her beautiful silver cheeks, and a well-hidden curiosity.She wanted to see what tricks the little guy in front of her was trying to do.

Owen put down the suitcase he was carrying in his right hand, closed the tarot cards with a smile, and said softly: "Have you seen this deck of tarot cards? Do you believe it? As long as it is the card you choose, I can know it; you What I see in my eyes will always be passed on to my eyes..."

"Now, Ms. Gray, please memorize one of the cards." He quickly opened and closed the cards in his hand before the female ghost's eyes, and the smooth movements were extremely beautiful.

"Do you remember?" Owen looked into the other person's eyes, "If you don't remember it, you can read it a few more times."

"I remember." Ms. Gray said quietly.

"That's good." Owen showed fancy shuffling, cutting and flying skills in front of the female ghost. After he finally closed the cards in his hand, he picked up the number one on the back with a smile. Zhang, open it in front of Ms. Gray.

"The priestess card." Owen recounted in a voluptuous tone, "a quiet, reserved, intellectual woman with excellent insight, she will find a friend who communicates deeply spiritually, and in each other Accompanied by the promotion of the inner limitless development..."

For the first time, Ms. Gray showed a look of surprise on her always indifferent face, her brows were slightly frowned, and she looked very puzzled.

"Then, let's continue..." Owen put the priestess card back, then quickly shuffled the cards, then randomly divided the Tarot cards in his hand into two parts, and showed the cut cards to the other party, "Ma'am, what do you see in your eyes?" See, that's what I see..."

Lady Gray glanced at the card.

"Well, the Fool? It's the Major Arcana again, what a coincidence." Owen didn't even glance at the direction of the card, just staring at Ms. Gray's eyes, and said persuasively, "It represents the beginning and the end, the unchanging life The end of the journey, the beginning of a novel journey. Someone will surprise you, move forward, and embrace infinite possibilities.”

Seeing the flickering eyes of the female ghost, Owen performed this magic trick several times in different ways, and Ms. Gray's expression at this time was not just surprised, but vigilant.

At this time, Owen closed the cards in his hand and scattered them like a goddess scattered flowers.The sky full of Tarot cards was like flying snowflakes, fluttering and falling on the top of the two of them.

"You see, they're just normal cards, without any magic."

"But the card you choose in front of a magician will always be the one the magician wants you to choose." Owen said silently in his heart, and blinked his left eye lightly at Ms. Gray.
