"Even the truth is deception of soone's lie"
******************************************
"I see", Severus sighed.
"Do you have any more information about her father"
" I do. After I ran a background check on her, I ca to know that her father had mixed features and was an average looking tall man with a robust body. He was a simple man who earned living through farming and business. He remained outside for nearly 9 months and would be at ho only for three months.
" Isn't it common", Severus asked in annoyance.
" Yeah, it is common, but the uncommon thing was, that despite having mixed features and living far away from ho, he knew the town like the back of his hand. He wasn't a native of this town, but he still knew the secret passages and ways to various places."
" So, are you implying that her father isn't a foreigner?"
" I am not implying anything, but everything seems fishy here"
" Anything else that can be terd as suspicious."
" Yeah, so villagers reported that she owned various books in her ho which were related to necromancy and spells."
" Why the hell a blind woman would have those books", Severus asked in confusion
" That's the main point of suspicion", Shenni agreed.
" I guess I need to personally pay a visit to that old woman, "Severus smirked.
" Anything else"
" That's all from my side," Shenni replied ekly.
Now it was Gemmi's turn, and both Severus and Shenni looked at him.
Gemmi was perplexed. He knew he can't stall more ti so accepted his fate and narrated his side of the story.
" Severus, do you rember the massacre of Frost legion?"
" Yeah, I do. Isn't it that abandoned group which was slaughtered on ex- kings order"?
"yes. As far as I know, nobody survived that massacre but there were rumors that a small boy survived. He sohow fled from Resen", Gemmi spoke in one breath.
"Astonishnt and disbelief surfaced on Severus' face. It was such a brutal massacre that none was spared. So how could a child have survived? Various questions tumbled inside his head.
"Noworry, who earlier wasn't interested in the whole conversation was now sitting with his head high up, a complete focus was there on the ongoing conversation"
[I think we need to reinvestigate the whole case Severus] Noworry advised.
"Are you an idiot? How can we investigate the 30-year-old case? I wasn't even born at that ti. Severus scoffed
"[We only need to follow clues for investigation] Noworry deadpanned.
" And how are we going to do it birdie?"
[ First, pay a visit to that old lady. My instincts tell that she is hiding sothing, and we need to find out what she is hiding.]
At this ti, when Noworry and Severus were having their telepathic communication with each other Gemmi was sitting there quietly like a student in front of Severus.
" Good work Gemmi. Now I was wondering If you could help with the address of that old lady too?", Severus asked politely.
"Sure, sure give a minute. I'll write it down for you." Gemmi stood up and went to another room and ca back after a while with a notebook and pen in his hand, then he wrote the address and gave a slip to Severus.
" It is the address of that old lady", Gemmi said while closing the pen cap,
"Thank you very much for your help Gemmi and Shenni"
" We are very sorry Severus. We couldn't provide you more exact information" both the twin brothers said grimly.
"neeh. you helped a lot now. I should take my leave now. Have a good day" with that Severus left the twin brother ho.
Gemmi and Shenni escorted Severus, wishing him good luck.
