"How did Snape convince Dumbledore to believe him?" Tonks said. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
"I know," said Harry, "that Snape told Voldemort that Voldemort was going after my parents, and then Snape told Dumbledore that he didn't realize the consequences of doing so, and that he was sorry that he had leaked the news, and that he regretted their deaths." โ
"Dumbledore believed him?" Blake asked incredulously, "Did Dumbledore believe that Snape was sorry for Jaime's death?" Snape had always hated James......"
"And he doesn't think my mother is worth a penny," Harry said, "because she's Muggle-born...... He called her 'Mudblood'......"
"How do you know that?" Darren asked.
"I remember from Snape," hatred crossed Harry's face, "Professor Trelawney told me that the one who overheard her prophecy about Voldemort was Snape. โ
"So," Darren suddenly felt a little bad, "and then Snape told Dumbledore that he had leaked the news......
"Professor Dumbledore told me tonight, just before he was killed by Snape, and said to me, 'I trust Severus completely. Snape'. Harry said with a shudder.
So, that's why after finding out that Malfoy was in the Room of Requirement, asked you to find someone, but there was no response, so much so that Darren had to face several Death Eaters alone......
Darren didn't know what the rest of the room had said afterwards, except that he had been sitting with Hermione, their hands clasped tightly to each other, Fawkes's elegy still echoing across the dark field in his mind...... The door to the hospital room is slammed open, waking Darren up to the arrival of the Weasleys.
They strode in, Fleur close behind, her beautiful face full of fear.
"Molly, Arthur," Professor McGonagall hurriedly jumped up to greet them, "I'm sorry! โ
"Bill," Mrs. Weasley whispered, and she headed straight for Bill's hospital bed, "Oh, Bill! โ
Lupin and Tonks, who were nearby, quickly stood up and took a few steps back, allowing the Weasleys to approach the bedside, and Mrs. Weasley bent down and kissed her son's blood-stained forehead.
"You mean Fenrir. Greyback attacked him? Mr. Weasley asked Professor McGonagall worriedly, "'Fenrir. Greyback didn't take the form of a wolf at that time'? What does that mean? What will happen to Bill? โ
"We don't know yet." Professor McGonagall replied, looking helplessly at Lupin.
"There may be some variations, Arthur," Lupin said, "which is rare and may be exceptional...... We don't know what he's going to be like when he wakes up......"
Mrs. Weasley took the foul-smelling ointment from Madam Pomfrey and began to apply it to Bill's wound again.
"And Dumbledore......" Mr. Weasley asked, "is it real, Minerva...... He is......" Professor McGonagall didn't answer, just nodded.
"Dumbledore is dead," Mr. Weasley whispered, but Mrs. Weasley didn't react to the words, her eyes were fixed on her eldest son, and she began to sob, tears dripping onto Bill's scarred face.
"Of course, it doesn't matter what you look like...... It doesn't really matter...... But he has always been a handsome ...... Child...... Always handsome...... He was going to get married! Mrs. Weasley said in a fit-in-and-a-start.
"What do you mean?" Fleur suddenly said loudly, "What do you mean, he was going to get married?" โ
Mrs. Weasley looked up, looking a little surprised, "I, just said ......"
"You think Bill doesn't want to marry me anymore?" Fleur didn't stop, "You think he won't love me because of these wounds?" โ
"No, I'm not that ......"
"He won't!" Fleur said, straightening up and flicking her long silver hair back, "A werewolf can't stop Bill from loving me!" โ
"Well, yes, I believe it too," said Mrs. Weasley, "but I think probably, considering him...... He ......"
"Do you think I'll want to marry him? Or do you wish I didn't want to marry him? Fleur looked at Mrs. Weasley, "Do I just care about how he looks?" I think my beauty alone is enough for both of us! All these scars show that my husband is brave! I got it! With that, she pushed Mrs. Weasley away and snatched the ointment from her hand.
At this point, Darren felt Hermione's hand grip tighter.
"Our Aunt Muriel," said Mrs. Weasley after a long pause, "has a beautiful tiaraโmade of goblinsโand I believe I can convince her to lend it to you for your wedding, and she loves Bill, and you know, that tiara will be beautiful in your hair." โ
"Thank you," Fleur said bluntly, "I'm sure it will be beautiful." After she finished speaking, she suddenly threw herself into Mrs. Weasley's arms, hugged her head and cried, and everyone in the room was watching them.
"Look!" Tonks suddenly said, "She still wants to marry him, even though he's been bitten!" She doesn't care! โ
"It's different, Bill doesn't turn into a complete werewolf. This thing is completely ......"
"Ah," Professor McGonagall seemed to recover a bit, looking at Darren, who should already know what had happened to him, "Darren, I think you're having some problems with not following the advice I told you. โ
"Professor," Darren said helplessly, "I was being targeted by several Death Eaters, and you know, you can't apparition in the castle, and I have to find a way to avoid them. โ
"He later cast a power-enhancing spell on himself, and like this," Madam Pomfrey told Professor McGonagall about the results of her examination, "and the power is strong, so the magic interferes with each other, you know, otherwise I could have done it with a healing, but now, perhaps, he should be sent to St. Mungo." โ
"St. Mungo?" Professor McGonagall repeated in a low voice, "In this case," she shook her head slightly, "it seems that we need Professor Flitwick to be here too, and we can discuss the spells, I don't know ......"
Then the door opened again, and Hagrid entered, and the little part of his face where there was no beard or hair was soaked with tears and swollen, and he trembled with cry, and clutched a large speckled handkerchief in his hand.
"I've ...... I'm done, Professor," he said to Professor McGonagall choked up, "Take, get him removed, Professor Sprout told the kids to go back to bed, Professor Flitwick was still lying down, but he said it would be fine in a moment, and Professor Slughorn said he had informed the Ministry of Magic. โ
Still lying down, it looks like Darren will have to wait for a while......
