Chapter 253: Three Drama Spirits and an Honest Man
There was a brief silence.
The atmosphere in the entire underground classroom seemed to freeze for a moment.
"You must be joking, right?"
After a moment, Snape opened his mouth with difficulty, his voice a little hoarse.
The black-robed wizard's gaze crossed over to "Mr. Otto Apocalis" and looked back and forth at the silver-haired little witch who was also shocked, and his eyes suddenly became extremely complicated - is Grindelwald's granddaughter?
"I hope so, too, and sadly, Gellert Grindelwald admitted it himself. β
Dumbledore said, looking up at Grindelwald, who was also full of solemnity, and shook the back of his hand rather helplessly.
"Severus. Otherwise, who else do you think is worthy or capable of making me make an unbreakable vow? β
The old man's face was full of helplessness.
There is no doubt that the story behind being able to force the world's most powerful wizard to make such a promise is definitely far more difficult than Snape could have imagined.
"I see. β
Snape leaned back on the edge of the podium and said with a long sigh of relief, as if he had made up his mind, and said with a frown.
"I didn't expect to be a descendant of Grindelwald, and I really need to be cautious. Then that one in the morning broke in."
"I, you"
At this moment, since Dumbledore said the shocking news, Elena, who had been silent, suddenly let out a strange sound, as if something had choked in her throat.
"Huh?"
"Huh?"
The two old men turned their heads in unison and glanced at Elena with a loving, but meaningful, look.
ββ
After instantly coming into contact with the information in the eyes of the two old guys, the corners of Elena's mouth couldn't help twitching.
These two old potatoes and turnips who have colluded are simply too bad - is it really good to join forces to bully poor Professor Snape like this? and, after seeing it, the two of them will definitely find a way to continue to fool the professor.
In this case, she had to do something.
"Do I really have relatives alive?"
Elena's lips trembled, her eyes drooped slightly, and she carefully held the "ancestral necklace" floating on her chest with both hands, with a hint of timid hesitation in her tone, and a well-hidden joy.
After a slight pause, the girl slowly pressed the pendant to her chest, looked up at Snape with a pitiful look that was as wet as a fawn, and asked in a whisper.
"Professor, is my grandfather a bad person? Why are your eyes and face so ugly?"
Thanks to the ubiquitous bloody TV series in her previous life, although she was a little caught off guard, but with the addition of acting skills in the bloodline, Elena's next expressions and movements can be said to be perfect - at least, she could feel that the aura that Snape had just raised next to her dissipated a lot in an instant.
ββ
Caught off guard by Elena's somewhat hazy timid eyes, Severus Snape's harsh comment suddenly froze, raised his right hand in front of his mouth, and cleared his throat somewhat unnaturally.
"Grindelwald, well, Mr. Gellert is a complicated man. β
"So, Professor Snape, you must know something about him, can you tell me some?"
Elena gripped the pendant in her hand and looked at Snape with a look of hope and anxiety, as if she were looking at an omniscient elder, making it seem like a great sin to reject even her questions.
Snape nodded stiffly, subconsciously glanced at Dumbledore, and shook his head quickly.
"On this point, when the time is right, Professor Dumbledore will naturally tell you. β
"Sure enough, nothing has changed?"
Elena pursed her lips a little aggrievedly, and the little derpy hair on her head lay down listlessly, and she underestimated in frustration, her eyes quickly became a layer of crystal, and she was about to cry in the next moment.
Faced with such a pitiful little guy, Rao Snape didn't know how to deal with it.
The cold mask he was best at had no effect at all in this situation - he wanted to coax him, but he was afraid of scaring people into tears, which made Snape feel a little helpless for a while.
As for the questions and concerns that Snape had wanted to ask, they had long since been put behind him.
Grindelwald and Dumbledore glanced at each other and raised their eyebrows tacitly, this is talent.
GG - This reaction, you taught?
AD - I didn't, you taught?
ggad - this little girl is really bad.
"Don't ask Professor Snape anymore. I know this may be a little difficult for you to accept for a while. β
Dumbledore rubbed his head with a headache, and the old man coughed lightly and gently persuaded him.
That's fine, let Elena improvise, and the scene may be out of control.
"Professor Dumbledore, can you take me to see my grandfather, I mean that Mr. Grindelwald?"
However, Elena, who is addicted to acting, is obviously not so easy to get out of the state of entering the play.
The girl looked up, slowly pressed the pendant to her chest, looked at Dumbledore and whispered.
"This pendant has been on me for as long as I can remember, and although I can't eat or speak, I've always been by my side like a reliable elder, can you say thank you to my grandfather if you can. β
As she spoke, Elena glared at Grindelwald, who was eating the fourth cheese-baked snail with a sharp look, and the old potato dared to eat her snail without any desire to survive.
"No thanks. β
Grindelwald whispered a vague reply as he tasted the food, and reached for the fifth cheese-baked snail - I have to say, the craftsmanship of this white-haired dumpling is indeed speechless, and it is much higher than those house-elves.
"From what I know about Grindelwald, the idealist who has changed the landscape of the wizarding world to a certain extent doesn't care about these formal verbal thanks, and as long as you can be in school safely, he should be satisfied. β
Compared with Dumbledore, who still needs to be carefully worded, Grindelwald, who is currently dressed as "Paracelsus", can be said to be the person with the highest status in the audience, and as a living fossil in the wizarding world who is close to four hundred years old, his words are naturally the most powerful.
Syllable!
Before Grindelwald's hand could touch the fifth cheese-baked snail, a small white hand quickly came out and slapped the old man's hand away from the top of the tray without mercy.
"Mr. Otto, this is a high-calorie, high-sugar food that people of your age should not eat too much - it is easy to cause diabetes, a condition that can be very painful for you. β
As she spoke, Elena stretched out her hand to protect the two little snails left in front of her, turned her head, looked at the other two wizards pitifully, and said with some grievances.
"And, this is my Potions class work, which, according to Professor Snape, should have been tasted by myself. Isn't it, Professor Snape, Professor Dumbledore?"
It's one thing to help with the show, but it's a bit too much.
"Ahem, Mr. Otto. The rest of the time is left to Professor Snape. β
Dumbledore cleared his throat and glanced at Grindelwald - almost, don't up a little ball.
After all, according to the previous plan of the two, they were actually trying to find a way to find a temporary caregiver for Elena, so that the pressure on both of them would be less.
There is no doubt that Snape, who is attentive and able to keep secrets, is undoubtedly one of the most suitable candidates.
