Immediately after Severus Snape left, the bell rang almost all of Hogwarts to call the students.

Liu Quan superimposed the Stealth Charm and the Ignore Charm on himself, and carefully walked along the corner. On the stairs, she saw the vicious Caro siblings standing on the higher steps, staring at the weak-looking underage wizards.

Liu Quan tried his best to hide his breath, quickly followed the footsteps of the students who were last in line, and entered the auditorium with the students who were lined up in several rows.

The door to the Great Hall creaked shut behind her.

Snape, dressed in black robes, strode through the middle of the students on either side of the row, the corners of his black robes dragging behind him on the ground with a small rustling sound. The air inside is suffocating.

He stepped onto the podium, put his hands in the pockets on the sides of his trousers, and slowly turned. His pale face was gloomy and flat, and he raised his chin slightly, and looked down at the sleepy-eyed, frightened little trolls in the audience. The Caro siblings stood next to him, one left and one right, their faces smug and ruthless.

"Many people must be curious as to why I summoned you at this time," he began, his tone like smooth silk.

"As far as I know, someone met Harry Potter in Hogsmeade earlier tonight. ”

The little trolls in the audience all hung their heads. Unlike the joyful and lively atmosphere when Dumbledore was alive, the atmosphere in the Great Hall of Hogwarts was particularly oppressive and tense at this moment. It was only when the name "Harry Potter" was mentioned that they couldn't help but turn their heads to each other.

"Now," Snape's voice quickly rang out, interrupting the brief exchange. "If someone, whether a student or a staff member, tries to help Mr. Porter, they will be severely punished for their behavior. ”

He deliberately slowed down his speech, biting the words "severe" and "punishing" hard and clear. Willow Springs' look of horror and disbelief when he saw Professor McGonagall standing on the side of the Gryffindin phalanx and Professor Slughorn on the side of the Slytherin phalanx.

"One more thing," added Snape, his face as if he had a cold, rigid pale mask, devoid of emotion. "If anyone learns of this act and fails to report it - he is guilty of the same crime. ”

He deliberately slowed down his speech, emphasizing syllable-by-syllable the phrase "their sins are equal." Illuminated by the blazing braziers on the walls surrounding the Great Hall, heavy shadows danced on his gloomy countenance.

Ryuzumi suddenly felt a pang of sadness, and had to blink his eyes vigorously, lest his blurred vision interfere with his last chance to look at him so calmly before the big battle.

"Besides," Snape slowly stepped down from the podium, his black robe dragging behind him, his dark eyes silently sweeping over the group of little trolls who seemed to be trembling in the audience, his steps barely making a sound, like a poisonous snake stalking in the darkness, ready to strike the final blow.

"If anyone has any idea about Mr. Potter's actions tonight, I hope they will step up. He stopped in the middle of the students, looked around, and spat out the last deadly and threatening word.

"Now!"

There was a dead silence in the Great Hall.

No one acted, and no one spoke. Snape stood in the middle of the passage, the deep mark carved into his brow seemed to be more obvious.

Then, a man strode out of the Gryffindor phalanx and stood in the middle of the passage, a few meters away from Snape, looking at the current Headmaster of Hogwarts with a calm and courageous look.

There was an uproar among the students, and Snape raised his eyebrows, his expression as terrifying as if he wanted to kill Arvada.

"It seems that despite your best defenses, there is a security breach here, Mr. Headmaster. ”

Harry Potter had a Gryffindor robe over the Muggle clothes he had worn when he had fled, and stood there straight, sparks of anger coming out of the green eyes behind his round glasses, and spoke loudly to Snape.

Almost at the same time, the door of the auditorium, not far from Liu Quan's side, suddenly opened. A group of people walked in together in silence. With wands in their hands, each slowly lined up in a neat horizontal row in the doorway, facing Snape and holding their heads high.

It's the Weasleys, Hermione, Neville, Lupin, and Kingsley Shackle.

Harry perked up and added sarcastically, "...... And it's not a small problem. ”

He glanced back at his allies, then turned back with a clear hatred in his eyes as he glared at Snape and shouted, "How do you have the face to stand where he once was?!"

The students around them spread out to the sides, Snape's expression still unchanged, staring at Harry coldly and rigidly, with a hint of arrogance and defensiveness.

Only Liu Quan could read the pain beneath his expression. He quietly spread all the spikes on his body like a hedgehog, but he didn't really want to kill anyone, just to defend himself against unwitting stabbing wounds from others. Behind him stood two veritable vicious Death Eaters, surrounded by the Hogwarts students he had promised Dumbledore to do his best to protect, in front of his colleagues from the Order of the Phoenix, who had no idea what he had been doing, and Harry Potter, the Savior of the Savior, who he had tried so hard to keep him safe.

Richly decorated and historic, the auditorium was huge and expansive, filled with warm lights and human voices for most of the time they remembered. But there is no one here who is really on his side, who does not hesitate to believe in his character, respect his sacrifice, and support his decisions.

Harry Potter was still yelling at him, "...... Tell them what happened that night!"

Snape's lips pursed, and the lines on his cheeks tauted.

"Tell them how you looked him in the eye and killed the elder who trusted you completely!" Harry roared, his emerald eyes filled with fiery anger and tears of grief.

Snape finally moved slightly—his hands back from his pockets, as if he were about to fold his hands on his hips to show his disdain for Harry's accusations.

Liu Quan finally decided that he couldn't listen to it anymore. Because if he listened to it any more, the pain hidden in his heart would turn into tears and burst out of her eyes.

Silently, she lifted the spell from her body, slowly stepped out of the dark corner by the gate, swept past the backbone of the Order of the Phoenix at the door, and stood at the front of them—just a few meters behind Harry—silently staring at Snape across from her.

There was another commotion in the auditorium. Lily Evans, the former Muggle studies professor who was wanted by Voldemort for a whole year but found nothing, and no one knew his whereabouts and life or death, appeared in front of everyone's eyes safe and sound!

Liu Quan saw the excited and happy looks on the faces of many people, and also heard the exclamations of many different titles such as "Lily!", "Professor Evans!" and many other different titles behind him. Even Harry, distracted by the small commotion, put aside Dumbledore's death and the accusations against Snape for a moment, and turned back. When he saw her standing at the forefront of the Order of the Phoenix, his green eyes showed undisguised surprise and joy.

Her gaze lingered on Harry's face for a second, bending her eyes towards the boy in reassurance, then shifting her gaze to the black-robed man across from her, and then not looking away, as if everyone else in the Great Hall had disappeared in an instant.

The moment her eyes fell on him, Snape shuddered imperceptibly.

The calm, empty eyes looked back at her beautiful green eyes that belonged to Lily, and Willow Quan realized that he had used Occlumency to face her. But what was the need? Did he think that she had also come to accuse him of unforgivable sin?

Liu Quan blinked, holding back a sour and mixed emotions that rose from his chest.

About a few minutes ago they were hugging out of sight—well, even if she hugged him unilaterally, but if he really hated her proximity so much, and couldn't bear her touching him for a second, he would have had more powerful magic to get rid of her completely, wouldn't he?—— but now they were only a few feet away, and it was as if they were separated by a whole world and life and death.

As the poem she and Arianna loved, time passes, and the roses wither?

Liu Quan quietly stared at the man she had treated with her heart for more than twenty years, whether it was for a task or something else, and the ups and downs in her heart gradually calmed down, and finally turned into a pool of undulating stagnant water, as quiet as a deep pool.

It is a determination that cannot be turned back and cannot be changed.

When darkness falls, will the last light of their lives be rekindled?

Harry, however, seemed to find a glimmer of strength in the brief silence and the presence of Lily Evans, and he glanced at her urgently, as if he suddenly remembered the night Dumbledore died, and that the female professor in front of him had protected him in front of the evil Death Eater Headmaster. He hurriedly said to her, "You were there that night, Professor Evans, you protected me, you fought him off,......" he pointed to Snape in front of them, as if to say something, but the vile murderer he thought of suddenly interrupted him.

"Stupid, naïve people!" he hissed with a sneer, as if out of breath, and his tone was rapid. "How ridiculous it is to listen to other people's accounts without the ability to find out the truth......"

"So what do you mean?!" Harry roared angrily at him with all his might. "Didn't you cast a life-requisition curse on him?!Didn't you want my life outside the Forbidden Forest?!Didn't you intend to hurt Professor Evans?!" His face turned red and purple from his rage, and he shouted at Snape, "What do you mean?!"

Snape suddenly drew his wand and pointed it at Harry Potter.

There was a frightening uproar. The students fled to their sides, and some even pressed their bodies against the wall as if they were afraid of being affected by the battle. Professor McGonagall sprang out of the Gryffindor phalanx, got in front of Harry, pushed Harry back, and drew his wand as well, pointing it at Snape.

Snape's right wand retracted, his fingers even loosened, as if he hadn't expected Professor McGonagall to rush out and confront him. There was a brief look of confusion on his face, but he quickly reacted, straightening his right hand again and pointing his wand at Professor McGonagall.
