Chapter 1140
"So, Snape offered to help Malfoy?" Hermione said, frowning.
"Obviously, unless my ears deceive me. Harry said.
"I'm sorry, Harry, it's not that I don't trust you, but I can't think of ......"
"Is this true?" asked Hermione together.
An expression of indignation leaked from Harry's face.
"I'm sorry, though, I guess I'm just confirming. Hermione said, putting her glass aside.
Slahhorn's banquet had reached its climax, and most of the people had already drunk about it, so there was no one to disturb them.
Luna, for example?
After being poured a few beers by Professor Trawney, he was blushing and observing the starry sky with Professor Trawney from the chair next to him, facing the ceiling, strictly speaking, the sun was a little bright and dazzling today, which once made Professor Trawney think that it was dawn.
"Yes, Snape offered to help him!" said Harry. "He said he had promised Malfoy's mother to protect him, and made an unbreakable oath or something—"
"Unbreakable oath?" Hermione looked shocked.
"No, he can't ...... Are you sure?"
"Yes, I'm sure," Harry said. "What's wrong? What does that mean?"
"Well, you can't break an unbreakable oath ......," Van Lin explained.
"I can almost think of this myself, it's funny enough. So, what happens if you break it?"
"Will die. Van Lin said.
"Will you die?"
Literally. Van Lin explained, looking at Snape as he returned to the banquet.
It stands to reason that Malfoy's mess had nothing to do with Snape at all, even if it was due to the long-standing good relationship between the two, but it didn't reach the level where Snape put his life on the line.
"So......" Harry opened his mouth to repeat the conspiracy theory about Malfoy.
"So, did you ever think that Snape might just be pretending to agree to the Malfoys?" Hermione glanced at Van Lin and asked cautiously, which, to be honest, was hard for the girl to understand.
On the one hand, there is the theory that Snape will not betray, instilled by Van Lin, and on the other hand......
Now Harry had apparently gathered evidence.
I have to admit that this is ironic for Van Lin.
"—pretending to help Malfoy so you can see what he's up to?" Harry said quickly. "yes, I know you think so. But how do we know that's the case?"
"Perhaps, we don't need to know at all. "Whether it's true or not, whether it's what you see or what we see, none of this seems to matter that much to Dumbledore. ”
"It's Dumbledore's business. Dumbledore trusted Snape, and that should be enough for all of us. ”
"But," said Harry, "I just said—just that Dumbledore was wrong about Snape—"
This has been said many times. It's up to you to trust Dumbledore's judgment or not. I believe, and therefore I trust Professor Snape. Van Lin said.
To Harry's surprise, he had expected Van Rim to support him, but it turned out.
"But Dumbledore makes mistakes," Harry argued. He said it himself. You-"
"Oh yes, Dumbledore makes mistakes, too. "But, most of the time, Dumbledore is right, and I don't think any of us need to affirm or deny that, otherwise we would have finished the game a long time ago, whether it was you or me." ”
"That's right, but I reserve my opinion. Harry said.
"Of course, in fact, I don't really understand it either. "If it's true that he made an unbreakable oath as Snape said, why didn't Malfoy trust Snape, I mean, you didn't hear anything specific before, and one thing that is clear now is what Malfoy wanted to do at Hogwarts, and then he got the support of the Death Eaters." ”
"Yes, that's it. Harry said.
"Of course, it could be someone else, but let's not consider any other possibilities, so what can Malfoy do at Hogwarts?" Van Lin asked.
Harry was a little speechless, as he said before, so far, Harry had only guessed what Malfoy really wanted to do at Hogwarts, and what was it?
Who is it for?
Dumbledore?or, Van Lin, or not, himself?
"I don't know. Harry shook his head, he had thought of many possibilities, but Hogwarts was solid, at least on the surface.
In Hogsmeade, large numbers of Aurors are stationed there, and inside Hogwarts.
Although Filch is a squib, the tools in his hands are no joke.
The Dark Magic Probe, and the magic circle that guards Hogwarts Castle, is hard to say if Malfoy wants to bring anything in.
And Malfoy himself, although dissatisfied with Snape's evaluation, but in fact, Malfoy is nothing more than a little wizard with much ability similar to Harry.
This ability may be very strong, but in Hogwarts, such a small wizard, even in the student body, there are many people who can do it, such as Hermione?
Although the girl did not have much experience in actual combat, no one doubted Hermione's efforts.
Just trying to say a lot of things can mean a lot.
And in fact, the girl's talent is not bad, and there are few young wizards who can choose Hogwarts from Hogwarts, otherwise why would Hogwarts be the number one wizarding school?
Therefore, whether it is the accumulation of magic power or the use of magic spells, Hermione has never been inferior to anyone, but most of the people who fight with them are wizards of the previous generation or even several generations, naturally, they are not so outstanding in strength, and this is what Van Lin is concerned about.
A little wizard who can defeat a wizard of the same period as Voldemort is a very gimmicky point in itself.
So, what does Malfoy have?
A famous family?
However, judging from Lucius's current situation, it seems that it is not so reliable, and on Voldemort's side, Van Lin is well aware that Lucius's situation is not good.
A loser, and he lost what was at stake for Voldemort's life.
How exactly should Lucius respond?
To continue to live in a humble posture as before, and to have many of the later Death Eaters trample over his head?
It's not something easy to accept.
Of course, Lucius had better options, such as......
