Sherlock looked at Nick Lemay who was surrounded by a group of wizards, then looked at the closed building in the yard, and recalled the scene where Nick Lemay walked out just now.
It seems that he came from the backyard of the small building, not from the house.
This is just an insignificant detail, but Sherlock noticed it carefully.
“Let’s go, we’ll go there too.” Seeing Nicklemay talking to the visitors, Fleur called Sherlock and Harry to the outermost part of the crowd.
“…I’m sorry everyone, Perenell and I went to Lyon a few days ago, and we just came back today, which made you delay in Paris for so long.”
Nicklemay looks like an old man with a very gentle personality. After meeting the visitors, he apologized first.
“And because of my problem, you all gathered to my house for a day, and I couldn’t entertain you at home, so I could only meet you outside the house. But I know your purpose, and it’s still a bit inappropriate to speak here. Come to the back of the yard, where there is an open space.”
They followed Nicklemay and walked around the back of the yard.
When she was walking close to Lemay’s house, she also observed his garden.
There is obviously a back garden with a large area in Lemay’s house, which is more than enough to entertain more than a dozen wizards here.
But for some reason, he did not choose this back garden, but was outside his home.
As Nicklemay said, there is a large open space behind his yard, and it is very remote, with no muggles passing by, and there is a dense forest not far away.
He seemed to have prepared here, with many seats and small round tables on the lawn in the open space, and some desserts and tea cups on it, which looked like a wild tea party.
The visitors sat down on the chairs around the small round table, and Nicklemay was getting a letter of introduction from everyone.
He stood in the middle and surrounded him.
“The long life has made me tired of the feeling of being alive. Death is something that everyone will experience.”
“I realized this a year ago, so after discussing with my wife Perenell, we decided to destroy the Philosopher’s Stone. We planned to welcome our own death and prevent that piece of gold and stone from falling into the hands of those who have made ill-thinking plans.”
“But the Philosopher’s Stone is the most wonderful work of my life after all. Even if it is destroyed, the remaining fragments still have magic power beyond imagination.”
“So I plan to send these fragments out to the new generation in the magic world now, so as to give this wonderful before we welcome death.The magical world leaves the last thing. “
The visitors all heard applause, and Nicklemay’s selflessness made them all beneficiaries. Sherlock also admired the old man’s ideological realm very much. He gave up when he said immortality and gave up when he said immortality, and destroyed when he said he wanted to destroy when he said he wanted to live and die.
Like Riddle, he even dismembered his soul for immortality. The Malfoy family, who had been a fence-bearing for wealth and status for decades, was almost stinky.
But these were abandoned by the old man in front of him.
He took out a small blood-red crystal from his pocket, allowing everyone to see its dazzling colorfulness under the reflection of the sunlight.
“The fragments of the Philosopher’s Stone, the magic it retains can still make it a powerful alchemy item. As for the use of this alchemy item… you can explore it yourself after you get it. “
Nicklemay took the fragments of the Philosopher’s Stone back into his pocket.
Sherlock seemed to see a familiar sign on the arm that Nicklemay put down at this time, and he was stunned.
Nicklemay continued.
“But it’s too simple and boring to just give the fragments to you directly. So, I want to play a small game with you. “
“There are twenty-three pieces of the Philosopher’s Stone, and there are seventeen people here. I hid all the pieces in that forest. “
He pointed to the forest not far away.
“You can go to the forest to find it yourself. No matter how many pieces you can find, the fragments you find belong to you. “
At this time, someone couldn’t help but ask a question.
“What if there was no one found? “
“Then I can only say I’m sorry. Whether I can find it depends on your own luck. “Nicklemay whispered, “and in the search for fragments of the Philosopher’s Stone, you can’t use magic for fairness. Before entering the woods, you can temporarily keep the wand here. “
After hearing what he said, “Seventeen people, go find twenty-three, and the probability that everyone can find one is quite high. “Furong said eagerly.
Sherlock frowned.
“Why do you want to play this kind of game? What should I do if there is a conflict in the process of searching for fragments. ”
“Clash? “Harry asked in confusion.
“If you find two magic stone fragments but encounter one that has not been found, will he look at you jealous, will he want to get one from you, or just do you want to get both of themSnatch it away? “
Furong and Harry were silent when they heard Sherlock’s words.
They surrounded them, and were discussing happily around them and entering the woods later. How to find the fragments of the Philosopher’s Stone, Furong said hesitantly. “Everyone seems to be quite harmonious, and they probably won’t do such a thing. ”
