Chapter 297: The Hidden Hero Snape?
If it weren't for the experience in the meditation basin tonight, the four of them would never have known what Karkarov's words just now and the tattoo on his arm meant. They were already clear about Snape's "ingredients" www.biquge.info Pen & Fun & Pavilion, so the four of them planned to leave after Bruce scolded.
But then Snape suddenly stopped them.
"Stop!" Snape said coldly, "What are you four doing so late?" ”
Bruce smiled and said, "Professor Dumbledore told us to go to the Headmaster's office. ”
Snape sneered and said, "Sterling, you're really lucky. In the second game, that would have turned you from a defeat to a victory. But luck will come to an end one day, you ...... But worry! ”
The words were full of disdain and strong threat, and before Bruce could speak, Harry couldn't bear it anymore, and said angrily: "Bruce is relying on his own strength, not luck!" ”
"That's it!" Ron immediately chimed in, and said meaningfully: "I see some people's luck is applauding, hehe! ”
Snape looked straight at Harry, his eyes full of disgust, and said, "Really? Are you talking about Potter? In the Black Lagoon you use gill grass. Good luck and good luck. Very few people know about gill grass, it's a very difficult thing to get, and it's a lot of trouble to keep, you're ......"
"Thank you for the introduction, Professor!" Harry interrupted Snape very unceremoniously, saying, "I found the gill grass through a friend, and it's not against the law, so I'm disappointing you." ”
Snape sneered, "Hehe! That's right, Potter! You didn't break the rules, but I'll know, and you can't hide anything from me in your little head. ”
With that, he walked inside and picked up a small bottle of green liquid from the shelf and asked, "Do you know what this is?" ”
Harry said directly, "Not interested. ”
Snape looked at Hermione and said, "So...... Miss Jack-of-all-trades! ”
"Truth spitting!" Hermione said coldly, "It only takes three drops to expose a person's most intimate secrets. However, Professor, I would like to warn you that the use of truth-spitting potions on students is not only against Hogwarts rules, but also against the laws of the Ministry of Magic. ”
Snape said lightly, "Yes, but there are exceptions, aren't they?" If you let me know that you secretly make a compound decoction, trust me! Even if the Minister of Magic protects you, I'll let you go! ”
After speaking, without waiting for the four people to react, he slammed the door shut, leaving the four people standing there with surprised faces.
He ...... He got it? Ron said in surprise.
Hermione said, "But it couldn't be, there was no one in the bathroom when we were making the elixir, and ...... There's no way Snape could be peeking into the women's bathroom, right? ”
Harry said in astonishment; "It's already in second grade, two years ago! He even remembered it, how careful he had to be! ”
Ron said nonchalantly: "You also said that it was two years ago, even if he saw it, there is no evidence, what are you afraid of!" What's more, he's still ......"
"Ron!" Bruce hurriedly interrupted Ron and said, "Shut up. ”
Ron then remembered that he was out there now, and that the impact of this incident was indeed very large, so he hurriedly shut his mouth.
The four of them returned to the dormitory, and after an afternoon of cold wind blowing on the lake, everyone went to bed early. But the four of them didn't feel sleepy, not only from the Meditation Basin, but also from Snape's threat.
Even though Ron said that "there is no proof of death", Snape had the truth elixir in his hands. Maybe they can really do something they didn't expect, they don't worry about the compound decoction, they are worried that the "illegal acts" they have done will be known, and they must know that these violations are enough for the four of them to be expelled ten times.
"If I were to say that we don't need to worry at all, I wouldn't believe he would dare to use the truth potion on us." Ron said.
"Be quiet!" Hermione said dissatisfiedly, "I'm afraid that others won't hear it, right?" ”
Harry said, "I don't think it's a big deal, and besides, don't we have a hole card in our hands?" ”
Ron hurriedly said, "You mean ......"
He looked around and whispered, "Snape is a Death Eater thing. ”
Hermione said worriedly, "It's not a hole card at all, it's a bomb." In case Snape gives us a ......"
"No, it won't!" Ron said worriedly.
"Alright, don't discuss it. Put your heart in your belly, Snape wouldn't do that. Bruce said suddenly.
The three of them hurriedly looked at him, and Ron hurriedly said, "Bruce, I don't agree with what you say, don't forget that Snape is ......"
"Death Eaters!" Bruce said, "But in the meditation basin you also saw that Dumbledore himself proved it for him, and he is still a professor at Hogwarts. This shows that we don't need to worry about him. ”
Harry immediately said, "No, Bruce! You are wrong, have you forgotten what you just happened? Didn't Karkaroff also say that he wanted to change his ways? But what did he just say? Don't tell me it's a normal greeting, and the Dark Mark on his arm. ”
"You two don't talk yet." Hermione said, "Bruce, are you hiding something from us again?" ”
Hermione knew her boyfriend too well. If Snape really had a problem, Bruce wouldn't be as silent as he is now, and would definitely think about plans as soon as possible. But Bruce didn't say anything from just now to the time he came back, there must be something hidden from them.
Bruce laughed: "The parents who gave birth to me, the wife of the one who knows me!" But it's not a cover-up, because I'll tell you now, come here. ”
The three of them hurriedly sat down next to Bruce, who told them about his conversation with Aberforth at Hoghead's Bar.
When they learned that Dumbledore also had a biological brother, and the feud between them and Greenwald, Harry, Hermione, and Ron almost didn't "crash" in their heads!
After a few minutes, the three of them digested the words, and Ron said in shock: "Dumbledore also has a younger brother, he fell in love with a man, and he was Greenwald, and indirectly killed his own sister. O Merlin! Is this still something I know so well? ”
Harry nodded, incredulous, "Bruce, I think you're making up lies to fool us. ”
Bruce said, "No, I'm telling the truth. ”
And Hermione was the calmest of the three after "digesting", saying, "I think Dumbledore and his brother did the right thing. What's wrong with homosexuality? Many Muggles are even advocating same-sex legality. And after realizing his mistake, Dumbledore did not hesitate to stand opposite Greenwald and defeated him with his own hands. Many people can't do this on that basis, and Mr. Aberforth! Collecting intelligence for his brother incognito is even more admirable, and the two of them are very great. ”
Bruce nodded appreciatively and said, "Very well said, dear!" You're more knowledgeable than these two guys. And these two goods didn't understand the point I was talking about. ”
"Why didn't I understand, the point is, of course, Voldemort's attack on us in the Final Three. It's just that the shock I was just given was too great. Harry said awkwardly.
"That's right, there's only one last game left," Bruce said. Voldemort will definitely make a move, and the plan you dreamed of will come to light. ”
"Then you should explain this to Dumbledore immediately." Ron said hurriedly.
Bruce said, "No, no, we can't do that!" ”
"No way!" Hermione immediately said, "I agree with Ron, Bruce!" Listen, now is not the time to be a hero. Neither Voldemort nor the Death Eaters are something you can deal with. ”
Bruce laughed, "Of course I know my pounds, and I'm afraid of death!" Because of this, Harry and I had to compete in the last race. ”
"Why?" The three of them asked puzzled.
Bruce explained, "The reason is simple, it's not the first time we've learned what kind of character Voldemort is. He was a madman, a genius, a man who would never give up if he did anything to achieve his goals. If Harry and I had withdrawn from the game, maybe we would have been safe today. But what about tomorrow? They're going to use other methods against us. Instead of facing the unknown, why not choose the known? ”
"Makes sense." Harry said, "Even if we can get away with this one, we may face even more crazy plans. This is indeed an opportunity, and although it is very dangerous, we can also use this plan to destroy Voldemort. ”
Bruce said, "Don't think it's that big, Harry. Aberforth's information was not false, and if it were really that simple, Dumbledore would have done it a long time ago. Our first priority is to save our lives. ”
"Is that all?" Harry was extremely puzzled and said, "I'm not talking big, and I'm not a hero. We must not let Voldemort go. ”
Bruce laughed, "Of course it won't be that simple, but defeating Voldemort is really big talk for us." But we can let the whole wizarding world know that the Dark Lord who threatened the wizarding world fourteen years ago is alive and ready to make a comeback, and I don't believe that Fudge's cowards will not admit it to this point. At that time, even if Voldemort is the reincarnation of Merlin and Slytherin is reborn, he will not be able to withstand the attack of the entire wizarding world. ”
"Beautiful!" Hermione said excitedly, "This is the most perfect and proper way, I support it!" ”
"I agree!" Harry immediately said, "It is my greatest wish in my life to be able to destroy Voldemort!" ”
Ron also said, "Of course I agree. But how do you keep yourself safe during the race? ”
Hermione nodded and said, "Yes, this one is just as important. ”
Bruce said: "I already have some plans for this, Mr. Aberforth said earlier that Voldemort is likely to make a move in the last minute of the game, because there will be a lot of Aurors patrolling around the arena during the game, and they will not have a chance to attack. ”
"But isn't it the same after the game?" Harry asked curiously.
Ron said; "Please, Harry! That's the Dark Lord, he must have thought of this, so he will definitely do it. ”
"Okay! Ron, there is progress! Bruce laughed.
