Before receiving Harry's message, he first met with Nihon.
This was definitely not good news for Hermione and the others. Seeing that everyone's faces were ugly,
Charles still tried to cheer them up. "No matter what, we have found the traces left behind by Harry.
The research lab will soon have a result. Why don't we go and have a chat with Mr. Skaman first? "
Rolf Skaman,
A fifth-year student in Hufflepuff Academy. Although he inherited a surname that was enough to be written in the history of magic, no matter if he was in the study team this time,
He was still in Hogwarts.
He was a boy who kept a low profile to the point of being unknown. At least the protagonist team only realized at this moment that he had such a famous grandfather!
Rolf had a face similar to his grandfather's.
He had freckles all over his face, but his temperament was gentle.
It was just that his "eldest cousin" and "second cousin" refused to acknowledge him no matter what. They even suspected that this was a huge scam set up by an evil cult.
Harrison crossed his arms and sneered, "I don't care if this is an entertainment program or a psychological experiment.
Although you have paid a lot of money to invite so many actors,
But please be prepared to be sued! "
Jonathan only frowned slightly.
His tone was still gentle when he spoke to Rolf.
But the content was not so polite. "Young man, I see that you are also a serious student. Making fun of other people's elders, and elders who have passed away.
I'm afraid it's not that fun, right? "
Hank, who was accompanying him at the side, did not know how to respond.
He only looked at Rolf.
Little Skaman, on the other hand, had already anticipated such a scene when Hank had discussed this meeting with him.
And he was ready.
He took out a few photos from the envelope he brought with him.
He pushed the coffee table in front of the Kowalski brothers. "This is a photo taken when I came to the United States with my grandmother when I was ten years old."
In the photo, the Kowalski brothers, who were a few years younger, sandwiched the ten-year-old Rolf.
Each of them slapped a plate of cake on their younger cousin's face.
Photoshop was still not popular these days, so the two brothers hesitated and wavered a little.
Ralf continued to introduce a few other photos. "This is a photo of Grandpa Jacob and my grandpa … This is Aunt Queenie and Grandma …" These photos were taken with a muggle camera. Although they could not be moved, they were all preserved.
Instead of Jacob and Newt's picture, Jonathan picked up the picture of the Goldskahns and wondered: the two old ladies looked familiar, but they had no recollection of them. But how could they not have any impression of their grandmother?
The two brothers looked at each other and found that their memories of their grandmother seemed to have been erased by an eraser, leaving only a vague impression. They couldn't remember her voice or smile clearly.
"Harry, do you still remember when our grandmother passed away?" Jonathan's gaze deepened.
Before Harrison could answer, Ralf interrupted, "Isn't Aunt Queenie still healthy?" When he saw the Kowalski brothers looking at him, he scratched his head and said awkwardly, "Then she should be with the other wizards now."
Although the Kowalski brothers came here to find out the secret of their grandfather or idol, Ralf and Hank's mysterious explanation did not win their trust. It was not until the two began to dig into their memories that they found more and more suspicious points.
"Brother, when you were twelve years old, was your first set of magic props …"
"Brother, where did we go for a vacation during the summer vacation after we graduated from primary school …"
The task of verifying their memories did not go smoothly. Both of them realized that they had lost quite a lot of their memories. They were even more surprised that they realized that their past had been deleted and left behind. Of course, the most surprising thing was that both brothers looked at Ralf at the same time. If what this child said was true, then …
"Are you really wizards?!"
Ralf nodded repeatedly. Hank quickly waved his hand. "No, no, no, I'm actually a mutant …"
What was a mutant? Jonathan felt his writing hand itching, and Harrison could not wait to see the limit of a magician — a wizard.
Hank had just thought of the words to explain when Natasha pushed open the living room door, and Charles and the others came in.
"This is our academy's headmaster, Mr. Charles Xavier."
The Kowalski brothers stood up and shook hands with Charles. Hank then introduced, "This is Special Agent Natasha Romanov from the Avengers. She's also a teacher at Marvel Academy."
Although the situation was a little special, Jonathan especially shook Natasha's hand for a while. When he looked at the two people behind her, his gaze was a little puzzled.
At this time, Hank had already introduced them. "These two are wizards from Hogwarts School of Magic in the United Kingdom. Mr. Percy Weisles works for the United Kingdom's Ministry of Magic. This is Miss Hermione Granger, a very outstanding little witch who is still a student."
After being stunned for a while, Jonathan still recognized her. "Miss Sharon Smith!"
Hermione smiled and nodded.
After the group sat down, Jonathan calmed down a little. He directly said to Charles, who seemed to have the most right to speak, "So why are you investigating my grandfather's box? What does that box have to do with Scarman … this cousin? "
"This matter is a little complicated to explain." Charles thought for a while and asked the Kowalski brothers, "I think the two of you have already talked to Rolf. About magic, wizards … these things, what do you think?"
Probably because of Charles's temperament as an educator, Jonathan calmed down and thought for a while before answering his question. "Mr. Principal, to be honest, although I write fantasy novels, I've never taken these things seriously. You know, science, we're in an era where people believe in science. I don't even have a religious belief. But … if what this cousin said is true, then Harry and I, our grandmother is a witch. We have the blood of wizards in our bodies … This is something that is not easy to accept. I'm not saying that this is a bad thing, but … Bang! Like a revolution in thought? "
Harrison waited for his brother to finish speaking before he slowly opened his mouth under Charles's gaze. "Why would we forget these things?"
"You mean to forget your grandmother?"
"And other things. Magic? Wizards? Mutants? Why don't we know that these are real and not just … the best-selling books written by my brother? "
"Hey!" Jonathan glared at his brother and then looked at Charles, waiting for a reasonable answer.
Charles's blue eyes flashed with a strange look. He first glanced at Hermione. Seeing that the girl was deep in thought but did not raise her head, he turned around and smiled at the two brothers. "It's quite complicated, but generally speaking, our world — the world in the best-selling books, to you — or to the people outside of Grimm Town, is equivalent to never existing."
"… Our job is to get it back." The old professor changed the topic and his gaze became sharp. "Mr. Kowalski, I hope you can understand what kind of people are in our town: people who have lost their magic, people who have lost their superpowers, people who have lost their family, friends, and people who have lost their past."
Jonathan seemed to understand something. "Your world … disappeared, and my grandmother was a part of that world?" So it disappeared too?
"But how could this be … war?" Jonathan could not imagine what could lead to the destruction of a world.
"You can say that this is a war." Charles nodded. "A war where the enemy wants to expel us from this world. Now the enemy has the absolute advantage. They have captured most of our soldiers and deprived us of most of the weapons we can use. The students and teachers you can see in this school are the only fighting force we have left."
Harrison could not help but ask, "How are you going to fight without abilities and weapons?"
"This may require the help of the two of you!" The old professor was in high spirits. "One of our best soldiers, Jacob Kowalski, has left a message that may help us break the current situation."
"That iron box." Jonathan still did not understand. "But there seems to be no information on that box?"
Harrison said, "There is a trademark. A trademark that says' Scarman. '"
Jonathan raised an eyebrow. "I thought it was just a hint that we have a cousin?"
"In fact, it's not just an iron box. The material of the box should be the aluminum alloy from our laboratory." Hank had seen the box and participated in the creation of Tadis. He was ninety percent sure that the material came from Tadis.
"What about the stone? We haven't studied the stone in the box yet, "Hermione said.
Jonathan had packed all the relevant materials before setting off, and he didn't mind sharing them now. "The identification materials and photos are all here. But, to be honest, we've studied it for a while, and we didn't find any strange symbols or patterns on it."
Charles took the materials from Harrison and said, "I think the two of you are quite meticulous." Besides, Granger had also studied it. But he still flipped through it immediately. Hank could not help but lean over as well.
At this time, it should be Hermione and Percy who were in charge of talking to the guests to prevent the atmosphere from falling silent. But Jonathan and Roland were more interested in Ralf now. They looked at the photos one by one, and after finding that they could not find any flaws, they tried to talk to Ralf. Ralf was much younger than his two cousins, so he could not help them recall their childhood. Besides, he was not very articulate, so the conversation between the three of them seemed to be stumbling.
The Kowalski brothers did not think that Ralf was lying because of this. Instead, they thought that he was simple and interesting.
Only Jonathan, who was holding a few photos, smiled and said, "Are you very close to our grandmother? Is that why you brought her photos with you?" The photos that Ralf brought were mostly of the four elders. It was reasonable to say that he brought a few photos with him to show that he missed his family, but there seemed to be too many of them.
But Ralf said, "I didn't bring these photos with me … I only put one photo of my parents in my wallet, but it was taken with a wizard's camera, so it became blank."
"Then these photos?" Hermione interrupted. She had already read the information about those stones and did not find anything, so she secretly thought that the key was still Scarman.
"It should be my grandfather who wanted me to bring them with me." Ralf scratched his head and smiled shyly. "Grandfather was very happy when he knew that I was chosen to study in America. He gave me a magic suitcase, yes … the kind that is bigger on the inside than on the outside … Then the magic disappeared, and it became an ordinary suitcase …" At this point, Ralf showed a distressed expression. "I don't know what happened to the magical animals and magical plants I raised in it."
Hermione was not in the mood to comfort her classmate at this time. She only asked, "Then what are the photos?"
"The photos were placed in the zipper of the envelope. I didn't notice it before. I only found it when I checked the suitcase later," Ralf said patiently. "However, there were only these photos in the envelope. There was no other note or anything like that."
Hermione lowered her head and pondered. Jonathan, however, had a thought. He got up and sat next to Ralf. He pulled the rather terrified young man and asked, "You said that your grandfather gave you a suitcase that was bigger on the inside than on the outside, and you used it to store magical animals?"
Ralf nodded in confusion. Hermione, who was beside him, reacted. "Kowalski, did you write a book called 'Journey in the Box' in your early years? I remember the general plot was that an ordinary person met a mysterious person with a box in his hand on the train journey. He was invited into the box and experienced a wonderful adventure. He saw all kinds of creatures that did not exist in the real world … "
"That's right. That was my early work, and it didn't sell very well. In fact, I almost forgot that I wrote such a story." Jonathan became excited and pulled Ralf to ask about the details of the suitcase.
Charles also noticed the situation here. Seeing the situation, he said, "Why don't we ask Mr. Scarman to lend us the important suitcase so that we can take a look at it again?"
"No problem." Ralf nodded in agreement and immediately got up to get the suitcase.
Charles was about to tell Hank something when another group of people brushed past Ralf and entered the door.
