If you have someone's messages set to HIDE ALERTS. Later you delete the conversation without resetting the alerts for that person. You will be able to see new messages from them. Remember that you did not block the person, you just hid the alerts.

Hide alerts is only for that conversation thread and not for future iMessages from the same person.
What you are looking for is block iMessages. --> Filter and block messages on iPhone - Apple Support
