Chapter 9: The Seventh Horcrux
Snape was taken aback when he saw Ling Zifeng, and he seemed to realize the seriousness of the matter, as Dumbledore had told him before that Ling Zifeng was a time-traveler. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
So he opened the ban and let everyone in, and then carefully searched the neighborhood several times with his wand, and after making sure that no one was following him, he closed the ban again and led everyone into the house.
The house is not big, about two bedrooms, and it is a small wooden house on the second floor.
The furnishings here are much more modest than Dumbledore's office, but they are unusually clean and clean.
Chen Pipi looked around a lot of this clean to the "perverted" room, he felt that the owner here was definitely a "Virgo", and the turtle hair cleanliness was extreme, but why was this person's hair always greasy, could it be that the brand of shampoo was useless, right?
They sat down in the living room, and Snape graciously poured them tea.
Dumbledore took a sip and said first, "Don't mess up my friend yet, we just discussed how you killed me. ”
This magical old man is enough, he doesn't care about people not to get excited, and at the same time he doesn't care about saying things that make people have to be excited.
So, Snape said excitedly, "You know, headmaster, how can I 。。。。。。 ”
"So don't get excited."
Dumbledore shrugged his shoulders indifferently, saying that he didn't care, perhaps, the old man had this unseemly sense of humor, which made everyone speechless for a while.
I only heard him continue to say to Snape, "Let's let Ling Zifeng repeat the previous content first. ”
Next, Ling Zifeng repeated the plot development he had just talked about, and Snape listened intently, only to see him frowning constantly and not saying a word.
It wasn't until Ling Zifeng finished speaking that he asked suspiciously, "You just said that the Dark Lord made seven Horcruxes!?" ”
Ling Zifeng nodded and said, "That's right." ”
Snape's eyes suddenly filled with confusion and asked, "But you've only said six!" Diaries, lockets, rings, cups, snakes, and crowns, but what's the last one? ”
Ling Zifeng was slightly helpless in his heart, the relationship between the last Horcrux and Snape could be described as very delicate, and he originally wanted not to say it for the time being.
Unexpectedly, this stereotypical and serious person, his mind is also extremely delicate, and he actually heard the key to the problem from the narrative.
To kill Voldemort, all of his Horcruxes must be destroyed, and the last one is Harry Potter, the son of Snape's favorite woman.
How can this Ling Zifeng speak?
For this tragic role of pathos, Ling Zifeng has always been unsure of how to face it.
Just when he was hesitating to say it, Chen Pipi on the side said stupidly: "Huh? Isn't the last Horcrux Harry Potter? Isn't that something that everyone on earth knows? ”
"What? Are you sure you're not talking nonsense? ”
Snape jerked up and grabbed Peel by the collar, his eyes widening and screaming in excitement.
The message was so shocking that the stereotypical seriousness he had been keeping was shattered. He grabbed the tangerine peel like a madman, and looked at how hard his hands were, almost connecting his nails deep into his palms.
Snape turned his head to look at Dumbledore, and noticed a flash of helplessness and regret in the old wizard's eyes. He knew that the news was true, that the son of the woman he loved dearly was a mortal object!?
Snape reluctantly let go of Chen Pipi and sat back on the couch, his eyes full of anger and incomprehension.
He could no longer control the indignation in his heart, and roared at Dumbledore, "Why? Why is that? Is the person you've asked me to protect is the one who has to die eventually? ”
"Lily's son, is that the pawn that must be sacrificed against the Dark Lord?"
The main reason Snape defected to Voldemort was that he killed the woman he loved the most, Harry Potter's mother, Lily.
But the most tragic thing is that the woman he loves the most is married and has children with his opponent, which has made him haunt him for many years.
While he hated and even hated Harry's father, he wouldn't hate the woman he loved the most, and the only child she left behind, Harry.
So after he betrayed Voldemort, he has been instructed by Dumbledore to silently protect Harry Potter as a secret protector.
However, Ling Zifeng's news made him extremely mad, the son of the deceased he had protected for many years was actually a mortal person, a pawn of others.
Dumbledore looked at Snape, who was almost broken, and shook his head with a wry smile: "The night Voldemort went to kill Harry, Lily used her body to block between them, and the spell rebounded. ”
"At that time, Voldemort's soul fragment was attached to the only living thing in the room, in Harry's body, which means that they were each other's Horcruxes."
Snape heard the key to this, his eyes suddenly became extremely dark, and he said in a sad voice: "Then Lily's son must die?" ”
Dumbledore said regretfully, "Yes, he must die, or Voldemort will never die." ”
Hearing this, Snape's face suddenly turned cold, as if the water and ice in the 10,000-year-old cold pool had sealed all the vitality, and even Ling Zifeng on the side felt a little chilled.
I only heard him question Dumbledore in a bitter tone, "You let him live and let me protect him for so many years, just so that he could die again at the right time?" ”
Dumbledore shook his head, and he said firmly, "If we had destroyed all of Voldemort's Horcruxes in advance, it would have been possible for Harry to survive, but... ”
(What Dumbledore wanted to say was that the person who killed Harry had to be Voldemort.) In this way, the spell of each other being Horcruxes can be removed, but there must be a special stone. )
"But what? What are we waiting for? Let's go! As he spoke, Snape stood up suddenly, no longer in his usual calm and calm posture.
Hearing of the chance to keep alive the only child of her beloved woman, Snape was thrilled. He raised his wand and was about to teleport, looking crazy and excited.
Dumbledore grabbed him and said in a serious voice, "You can't come with us." You are our only spy in Voldemort's forces, and if you are exposed, we will be very passive. ”
"But, I 。。。。。。"
"Nothing, do you want to avenge Lily?" Dumbledore said to Snape in a serious tone.
The unmistakable look in the old magician's eyes calmed down the crazy man.
"The task of destroying Voldemort's Horcruxes is entrusted to us, and you must provide us with his movements. Only in this way can we destroy him from the inside out. ”
Snape took a deep breath, his excitement calming down.
