Chapter 246: Changing Snape's Mind
"And then, William?"
The Ravenclaw Tower, in the Ravenclaw lounge lit by a burning fire.
Terry asked William intently, not only him, but William's other two roommates, Earl and Ike, also looked at William with eyes full of intellectual curiosity.
They were sitting on the couch by the fire, listening to William's story.
"What's the old bat saying next?"
"What else can he say, Dumbledore has spoken, and Snape can only keep his mouth shut, and this matter will pass for the time being."
"Yay! Once again, good has triumphed over evil! Terry cheered, not even a Ravenclaw student who didn't like Snape, let alone Terry, who had a bad relationship with Snape.
Hearing that the old bat was unlucky was also a great joy in life for Terry.
However, more than the other houses, the Ravenclaw eaglets would admit that Snape was a Potions Master and continue to hate him.
Because Snape's injustice was not confined to Gryffindor, in fact, he almost never gave extra points to students in other houses except Slytherin.
"But then, he had an interesting interaction with Lockhart." William said this, and the corners of his mouth sketched into a smile.
"Oh? What happened next? ”
Today is destined to be an unforgettable day for Filch.
His cat was attacked by unknown circumstances and turned into a cold, stiff stone statue.
His deepest secret, a Squib who can't practice magic, has also been revealed.
This made Filch, who was already full of resentment towards the young wizards, even more crazy, and he even made such a suggestion to Dumbledore.
"My cat is petrified, Headmaster!" Filch still had the same hideous look as his eyes bulged, "I want to see someone get some punishment!" ”
"We can heal him, Argus." Dumbledore said patiently to Filch.
No matter who it was, not even for a squib who couldn't cast spells, or a low-status castle cleaner, our Headmaster didn't complain in any way about Filch's crazy words.
But, Principal, do you really think so?
William thought to himself.
If you know he's a Squib, why would you keep him in Hogwarts, where magic is all about it?
Isn't that driving him crazy?
You know, except for the little wizard who is learning magic, it's the professor with high mana, and it's really good to put a low-status administrator who can't cast spells among them?
The professors would not look down on him, wizards had superiority in their bones, and for wizards who could not cast spells, their status might not even be as good as that of Muggles.
Because some radical wizards will even think that Squibs are moths in the wizarding world, a group of congenitally deformed wizards, and such scourges should be found and cleaned up one by one.
Fortunately, Hogwarts does not have such radical professors, and the professorial group under Dumbledore's leadership has a kind attitude towards Filch, at least there will be no vicious ridicule.
As for the students, especially the energetic lion cubs in Gryffindor, they didn't know about this secret, and they had already played tricks on Filch at that time, but now it was okay, with the return of Harry and the others, this secret would definitely be revealed to them.
Even if Harry didn't want to say it, Ron would, he was notoriously big mouth.
This will undoubtedly make Filch more resentful of the young wizards, and the more viciously he targets the students, the more the students will hate him.
A vicious circle.
Thinking of this, William didn't understand Dumbledore's decision to hire him as the caretaker of Hogwarts.
Wouldn't it be good to send him to the Muggle world?
"Professor Sprout recently got some mandrakes, and once they're mature, we'll be able to use them to concoct potions to bring Lady Loris back to life." Dumbledore didn't know what William was thinking, and he said to himself.
"Let me configure it!" Lockhart on the side was a little impatient, "I bet I've configured this simple potion no less than a hundred times, and I can even configure a mandrake resurrection potion while dreaming." ”
Lockhart, you really are, dare to say anything!
Still dreaming and configuring at the same time, can you say that you are a little bit on the side?
William rolled his eyes helplessly.
"Hahaha, ahaha, Lockhart's parallel goods still dare to blow it, I bet that if Dumbledore really agrees to let Lockhart configure, then Filch's cat will be really cool." Hearing this, Terry couldn't help but laugh.
"And then?"
Then Professor Snape stepped up.
"I think I'm the Potions professor at this school!" William painted a vivid picture of the old bat's grim tone.
"Haha, the old bat is so interesting, he must feel that his position is being challenged."
"If nothing else, I've heard from quite a few senior students that Professor Snape has always wanted to be a Defence Against the Dark Arts professor at Hogwarts, and he applies to Dumbledore almost every year." Ike interjected from the side.
"yes, I don't know what he thinks? Didn't he know that none of the wizards who had ever held this position had ever achieved any good results?
The curse of the mysterious man was something that even Dumbledore couldn't lift. Terry said with a big grin to the others.
"Maybe Dumbledore was also afraid of what happened to Snape, after all, this is the Potions professor he managed to find."
And, after all, it is not easy to find such an undercover agent who is next to a mysterious person.
Of course, William only said this secretly in his heart, and did not tell Terry about them.
"Snape, you say, was he really a Dark wizard before? Will he be with the mystery man? Ike asked, he was a Muggle wizard and didn't know the secrets.
"Yes, he was once a Death Eater, and he also followed the mysterious man and made him his master."
"Then why is Dumbledore still?"
"Why did you hire him as a professor at the school?"
Ike nodded, he really couldn't understand why the White Wizard would make such a decision.
Because he changed his mind, after the fall of the Mystery, he immediately switched sides, and identified many Death Eaters for the Ministry of Magic, so he was not liquidated.
Not only him, but many of the patriarchs of wizarding families chose this way, such as Draco and Pansy's father. ”
