Hogwarts Crawler

The letter paper was not big, and even if it was filled up, not many words could be written, but the amount of information was explosive.

The first sentence at the beginning was that Eugene's grandmother asked him not to go back for Christmas, and the following explanation was the reason why Adam was so shocked.

"Two months ago, your parents had an accident while exploring the ruins. Their bodies were sent back by the friends who explored the ruins with them, and they were buried directly after they were sent back - the bodies were not damaged to the point of being unrecognizable. I checked before that, and they were indeed your parents."

Eugene's grandmother explained that she knew that Eugene had always had a strong yearning for his parents, and she was afraid that Eugene would be hit too hard, so she didn't tell him.

She even planned to maintain the lie of "parents exploring the ruins". If nothing unexpected happened, she would keep it a secret until the day she passed away.

But unexpectedly, Eugene had received a letter from his parents before...

"So, that letter... was it sent by a ghost?"

Cologne's little face turned pale with fear.

"Is it possible that Eugene's parents sent the letter first, and then encountered an accident?"

Uther analyzed.

"Will an owl letter be sent two months later?"

Bernard didn't quite believe this possibility. In comparison...

"I think the things in the ruins are too precious, so your parents and their friends eventually had an internal conflict, and the things were finally obtained by your parents."

Facing the different looks of the four people, Bernard continued his reasonable inference:

"Maybe your parents are not dead, so their friends set their sights on your grandmother and you, hoping to get the thing through you."

"Or maybe your parents are really dead, and their friends thought that since they have killed your parents, why not kill your grandmother and you together, and get the things your parents once had. What about the gains you have made in the past?"

"It is also possible that your parents died, but their friends did not get the thing, so they thought that the thing is now in your hands, and pretended to be your parents to deceive you..."

"Wait, the last one is impossible, right?"

Cologne couldn't help but refute:

"The bodies of Eugene's parents were sent by friends, right? Then why pretend to be his parents..."

"The people who sent the bodies and the people who pretended to be Eugene's parents may not be the same group of "friends."

Bernard shook his head, then looked at Cologne:

"And when you say that, you also think that the other situations I mentioned are also reasonable, right?"

"..."

Cologne was silent.

Looking at Eugene, whose face had lost its color, Adam comforted him:

"What Bernard said is indeed possible, but the possibilities are not limited to these..."

It's just that Adam couldn't think of other possibilities so quickly for a while-not everyone can have a case database in their minds like Bernard can directly apply it.

After speaking, Adam turned the letter over.

There wasn't much on the other side of the letter. Eugene's grandmother said that she had contacted several friends and was waiting for people claiming to be Eugene's parents to come.

If they were really Eugene's parents, Eugene's grandmother said that she would let them wait at home until Eugene came home for the summer vacation even if she broke their legs, and the family would meet before leaving. If not...

In short, at the end of the letter, she once again warned Eugene to stay at Hogwarts and not go back during Christmas.

Putting down the letter, Adam took out the sealed book and looked at Eugene:

"We are here now, and we can't find anything with these letters. We can only guess... Why don't I try to predict your parents?"

It's not clear whether Adam's prediction is accurate, but Eugene nodded.

Ten Clow cards were placed in order, and Adam turned over the first card.

"Double card?"

Adam looked at the Clow card with confusion on his face.

Double card... What does this mean?

Adam had told Uther about his divination process before, and Uther whispered to Eugene beside him that the first Clow Card was a hint of the result.

Knowing that Adam had successfully divined the danger Uther encountered last time, Eugene obviously took this divination seriously.

"So... what does this represent?"

Facing Eugene's question, Adam was silent for a moment:

"It's not clear yet, let's see what happens next."

After saying that, Adam turned over the three Clow Cards in the middle row.

"Mirror Card, Illusion Card, Shadow Card?"

Looking at these three Clow Cards, Adam frowned:

"At least now we can be sure that the person who wrote to you should not be your parents."

Mirror images, illusions, shadows, are all false.

Eugene took a deep breath:"Then...then are they still..." alive?

"They are definitely still alive."

Adam said firmly. What Eugene needed now was hope, and he didn't think the current deck was as dangerous as Uther's last divination result.

Last time, Uther's deck had a lot of cards, confusing cards, and hidden cards, almost like a blood-red "danger" on top of his head.

And Eugene's parents, at least for now, did not have any Clow cards that indicated a bad direction.

Eugene nodded, and Adam turned over the last Clow card.

The next target of the divination object - no card.

Adam's face suddenly became paler than Eugene's.

Last time, he was thankful that there were no dead cards in the Clow Cards, but now he seems to have found a card that is no different from a dead card...

"No! Aren't you the Adam card? Why are you also in the Clow Cards?"

Adam clearly didn't put the No card and the Love card in when he shuffled the cards...

The No card floated up, and the back of the card returned to the appearance of the Adam card. At the same time, the No card on the card opened its eyes:

"Adam, there will be no such loopholes in Clow Card divination - it won't disappear just because you took away a certain card. At the same time, even if you convert all Clow Cards into Adam cards and mark the back of each Adam card, everyone's back will still become the same pattern during divination."

"So... what happened?"

Eugene first saw Adam's face, and then heard Adam's words - it was obvious that he didn't want this card to appear, and he couldn't help but feel uneasy.

"..."

Adam looked at Eugene, and then couldn't help but look away in Eugene's eyes, not having the heart to explain the meaning of the No card.

Eugene: "!!!"

"My parents... are they... are they..."

"Calm down! Eugene, calm down first!"

Uther reached out and pressed Eugene's shoulder.

"How can I calm down? My parents are dead!"

"They are not dead yet! The last card is a prediction of the future!"

Uther looked at Adam, and Adam nodded quickly:

"Yes! That's right! Although no card symbolizes nothingness, the last card is the future goal of the divination object. As long as we stop them before that..."

Adam couldn't say anything more.

Not to mention that they don't even know where Eugene's parents are now, they are still in class, how can they stop Eugene's parents?

Looking at the Clow Cards on the table, Eugene burst into tears.

At this moment, Adam put away the Clow Cards on the table:

"I'll do divination again!"
