The news of Katie Bell's attack quickly spread around the campus, but except for Harry, Hermione, and Leni, no one knew the details of the incident, let alone the "real" target of the attack and the "real murderer" behind it.

"Harry, so you and Hermione were there!" Ron Weasley said with a look of surprise on the couch in the Gryffindor common room, "Oh my God, you're not hurt, are you?"

"I think it's obvious!" Hermione said flatly.

"Well, it doesn't look like ...... What the hell happened?" replied with a quick nod of his head.

Harry told his buddies about his encounter with Katie and Leni at Hogsmeade, as well as most of what he saw in the Headmaster's office......

"In other words, the target of the murderer's attack is actually Professor Dumbledore!" Ron gasped in fright: "This is definitely a conspiracy, it's terrible......"

"Of course, but Professor Dumbledore has found ......," Harry continued.

His voice stopped abruptly, though, as Hermione suddenly let out a hypocritical cough of "ahem" to the side.

"What did Professor Dumbledore find?" Ron asked, curious.

"Professor Dumbledore will definitely find the murderer, so we don't have to worry about this matter!" Hermione interrupted their conversation without any emotion.

"Okay...... Of course it is......" Ron agreed.

Rolls-Royce...... My dear Rolls-Royce......" Lavender-Brown's delicate voice came from behind them.

"Sorry, buddy...... I'll miss out first......" Ron said quickly, then turned and ran in the direction where Lavender was.

"Hermione, why don't you let me tell Ron about Mrs. Rosmerta!" Harry asked a little puzzled as Ron ran away.

"Have you forgotten ......" Hermione shook her head helplessly, "Professor Dumbledore told us to keep this matter strictly confidential and not to tell anyone......

"But...... If it were Ron......" Harry said hesitantly, "He probably wouldn't tell anyone......"

On the other side, Ron Weasley hadn't left the Gryffindor common room, and he was putting his arm around Lavender, and he was talking triumphantly......

"I have ...... reservations about it," Hermione said coldly, shrugging her shoulders.

"Hey, Harry!" Just then, a bold-looking girl approached, with large black eyes, a protruding chin, and long black hair.

Harry apparently knew the girl, her name was Romida Vanney, and since the beginning of the semester, he seemed to admire him, often finding all sorts of excuses to get close to him.

"Hey, what's the matter?" said Harry, following Hermione's previous tone, a little coldly.

"Professor Dumbledore told me to bring you a message!" Romilda said quickly.

"Professor Dumbledore's message?"

At the beginning of the semester, Harry received a notice from Albus Dumbledore that he needed to be tutored by Professor Dumbledore alone, and Harry was excited to learn some advanced magic from Professor Dumbledore—

Unexpectedly, since the first week of school, he had not received any notice from Professor Dumbledore for more than a month...... Even many times, Professor Dumbledore was nowhere to be seen in the school.

"What does Professor Dumbledore command?" Harry said quickly.

"Dumbledore has asked you to go to the Defence Against the Dark Arts classroom at seven o'clock tonight for a second extra tutoring. Romida replied.

Defence Against the Dark Arts classroom?

Isn't it the principal's office?

It could be that Professor Dumbledore was going to teach himself a few advanced defensive magics himself, after all, he had also been a Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher for a while in his second year.

Harry Potter's heart couldn't help but be full of anticipation.

......

At seven o'clock on Sunday night, a confident Harry pushed open the door to the Defence Against the Dark Arts classroom.

The smile on his face disappeared in an instant.

"S...... This...... Professor Snape?" Harry stammered.

"Potter!" Severus Snape, the professor of Defence Against the Dark Arts, could not see any expression on his face, "I swear I am not willing to accept this task, because I know how clumsy you are in Defence Against the Dark Arts...... If it weren't for Dumbledore's request for me......"

"So the next lesson......" Harry looked like he might faint at any moment.

"That's right, I'll be in charge of your next additional lessons!" Snape's voice was a little angry, "Dumbledore, please let you have complete control over how to close your brain before the end of the sixth year...... I just hope you can do a little better than last semester. ”

Harry was almost on the floor......

The scene that happened in the last Occlumenclumc class of last semester will probably not be forgotten for the rest of his life...... Because, he spied Severus Snape's most private memories.

"Stand up, Potter...... I hope you finish this course as soon as possible...... Let me get rid sooner!" Snape gave Harry a disgusted look, almost snarling.

At the same time, his mind went back to a few hours ago.

At the time, Severus Snape was still in the principal's office.

......

"You want me to continue training Harry Potter in Occlumency?" Snape said angrily, "This can't be, Dumbledore...... I swear I'll never go on to do it again. ”

"Calm down, Severus...... Stay calm......" Albus Dumbledore said calmly, raising his hands.

"Actually, I understand your frustration, but there seems to be a bit of an accident," he patiently explains...... "One of my sources on Privet Road told me that just over a year ago in August, she witnessed you enter the ...... at 4 Privet Road"

"I entered Number 4 Privet Road?" Snape was stunned and repeated, "How is this possible?"

"yes, I think it's incredible...... And the informant also told me that you had a cordial conversation with Miss Penny Evans at that time. Dumbledore continued, "Honestly, I don't know what that means, or what 'you' said to Harry's aunt at the time...... So I think it's up to you to figure this out!"

"Damn...... What's going on......" Snape looked like an ant on a hot pan and circled around Dumbledore a few times.

He said in a deep voice, "So...... Potter's new Occlumency course, starting tonight!"
