Hogwarts two months ago, Slytherin common room.
"Brother, it's been half a month since school started. It's almost certain that the kid named Tom is the heir to the welfare family..."
Tucson frowned: "Originally I just wanted to get close to him and have some good feelings for him, and I didn't want to get too attached to him, but now the family is heavily in debt... Grandpa's illness is almost unbearable... I don't want to think about it anymore. The solution is to force Gringotts and the Welfare family to mortgage all the family's assets by the end of this year at the latest."
Charlie Saschcha also felt the bitterness and helplessness of his elder brother at this time.
"Brother, what are you going to do?"
"Go to Coulson, create an attack, and then rescue the child, so that we can gain his favor to some extent! Remember not to go too far. If something goes wrong, use 'mirror magic' to escape immediately to avoid being caught. "
At this point, Tucson started planning. He acted in front of Tom twice, rescued Tom twice, and successfully attracted Tom into the ghoul society.
…
more than a month ago
"Brother, grandpa is critically ill! Gringotts also gave an ultimatum and confiscated all assets within ten days!"
Charlie anxiously came to the club activity center to look for Tucson.
That night the old Marquis Welfare came to Hogwarts, and Tom's identity was completely confirmed that night.
"You go out first! I'll think of a way!" Tucson scolded and asked Charlie to leave the room.
After Charlie left, Toussaint murmured to himself in the full-length mirror in front of him: "Canskuret, you said you would help me!"
"Yes, yes, I said I would help you...but you have to pay the price! You need to sacrifice a soul to me..."
"My soul!" Tucson said, already on his way to death: "As long as it can revitalize the family, you can take my soul!"
"Tsk, tsk, tsk...your soul already belongs to me, otherwise how could you master the 'mirror magic'? You couldn't even defeat your own mirror image back then!"
Tu Sen frowned, smiled bitterly, and shook his head: "Then there is no other way, I can't give you the soul to sacrifice!"
"No, you do! Coulson..."
"No! He is innocent! He is the only friend who is sincerely willing to follow me! I will not hurt him!" Tucson shouted angrily, turned around and left.
"The Sashicha family can't wait, and neither can your grandfather Karascu... Do you want to watch your grandfather die? Or watch other people in the family become homeless!?"
Tucson was silent. He stood there for nearly ten minutes, clenching his fists, his nails digging into his flesh, and scarlet blood staining his palms.
"Okay! I will sacrifice..."
That night, Toussaint informed Charlie of his plan to attack tomorrow, but did not say that Colson would be sacrificed, nor that he would attack in person tomorrow.
I just talked about the planning process and the location of the attack.
…
The next day senior students were allowed to go to Hogsmeade.
Tucson specially asked Charlie and Coulson to make an appointment with Tom to go to Hogsmeade Village.
The sky was gloomy and there was sporadic rain. Tucson stood on the tower and watched the people leaving. Although Tucson hesitated in his heart, he finally made a decision.
Tucson left the tower to prepare for tonight's events, but on the way he bumped into Professor Leicester, the Head of Ravenclaw.
Tucson nodded and planned to leave as soon as possible.
But unexpectedly, Professor Leicester's voice came from behind him: "Don't rely too much on 'mirror magic', let alone believe any nonsense coming from the void!"
Tucson paused, and at this moment he had the idea of giving up the plan.
"So what if my grandpa dies? People are born, old, sick, and die naturally. If the family wants to revive, we can't rely too much on the old man! So what if the family's ancestral home is mortgaged? I can redeem the ancestral home again with my own efforts! Colson can't do it because of me I would sacrifice his life for personal gain, he is my most sincere friend!"
Tucson decided to cancel his plans for tonight.
However, the 'taboo' alliance cannot be violated.
Now that the contract has been made, it cannot be stopped.
That afternoon, Tucson felt a little dizzy, and his overall condition was very bad, as if he had a bad cold.
As night fell, for some reason he came to the edge of the black lake in a daze, and hid himself in the mirror of the black lake, waiting for the opportunity to move.
That night, Charlie and Colson arrived as scheduled. Tucson went on a rampage and killed Colson first, and then hit Tom with a fainting spell.
But at the moment when Tom fainted, Tucson used the 'mirror cutting' to cut off Charlie's heart.
Charlie looked at his familiar yet unfamiliar eldest brother and exclaimed in disbelief: "Why kill me...didn't you just agree to attack?"
After Charlie died, Tucson regained consciousness instantly. Looking at Charlie who had been killed by himself, Tucson was horrified.
At this time, the mermaids in the water noticed something strange, and three mermaids took harpoons and attacked Tucson.
Tucson was in a state of confusion and resisted without any method before falling into the 'mirror space'.
…
Later, because Charlie swore to protect Tom to the death, the old Marquis Welfare did a good job in honor and gave the Sashecha family a large pension, tore up the mortgage agreement, and once again gave the Sashecha family's ancestral home to them.
Everything seemed to be over, but Tucson discovered that Tom did not trust him more and more. He noticed Tom's suspicion and also noticed that a black dog entered the black lake to deal with the mermaid all day long.
Tortured by fear and self-blame, Toussaint further indulged in the 'taboo' Kanskuret. Under the temptation of the 'taboo', he became paranoid and crazy, and eventually 'lost control' and alienated, becoming a living monster. monster.
Before his death, Tucson sighed: "Charlie... I'm sorry... In the end, I still failed to fulfill my ideal of revitalizing the family! After all, the magical world controlled by the family has no place for ordinary wizards like us... At this moment, I finally know ...Why do so many people follow Grindelwald... Even though everyone knows that Grindelwald is deceiving, at least he gives the bottom class hope..."
Lester came to Tucson and knelt down: "The teachers at the college have always known that the position you applied for in the Ministry of Magic was replaced by a son of the Selwyn family. In order to let you enter the Ministry of Magic, the Saschcha family Heavily in debt and on the verge of collapse..."
"Professor Slughorn has been helping you with your connections. Last week, he also said, 'Although he failed to get Tucson into the Legal Enforcement Department, he guaranteed to get him into the Auror Office.' The teachers at the college have already helped you in The road to the future is secretly paved.”
"The structure of the magical world controlled by aristocratic families does need to change, but change is definitely not violence or lies. Grindelwald may not really want to overthrow the so-called aristocratic family rule. All he wants is the power of magic!"
The muscles on Tucson's face couldn't help but twitch, and his body kept twitching. He was very excited at this time. He didn't know whether he regretted his crime or was still unwilling to bear the darkness of the times.
It's a pity that he was never able to utter a single word again. His soul had fallen into the arms of the 'forbidden' Canskuret, and it would be difficult to redeem him.
