Chapter Fifty-Six: Dean Snape Comes to Catch Up

When Lovell heard this, he was in awe of her: no matter how she looked at this ideal, it was not easy to accomplish.

Just as it was about to say something, there was a sound of kicking and tapping footsteps outside, and Filch's excited voice: "If I had been more decisive, I would have caught Peeves!" ”

The office door opened suddenly, and Filch rushed back, followed by Lady Loris.

"How? Any results? Lovell asked knowingly.

"Nope!" Filch waved his hand, "Let that guy run, but tonight it broke a very expensive vase and made such a loud noise that it affected the sleep of students and teachers, and now it is finally going to get out!" ”

Lovell always felt that there was something wrong with Filch's logic, but for the sake of him being so happy, he didn't disappoint him.

"Congratulations, Mr. Filch!"

"Haha!" Filch laughed happily.

After laughing, he remembered that there was another student in the office waiting for him to dispose of.

"As for you......" Filchmo rubbed his chin as he pondered what to do with the student. Although he is in a good mood now, punishing a schoolgirl with excellent character and academic performance can obviously bring greater joy.

"Miss Farley, because you have violated the school rules, you are still wandering around the campus at the time of curfew, and Slytherin is deducted ten points, and you yourself will be locked up in my office from next Wednesday night." A deep voice suddenly rang out in the office doorway, interrupting Filch's thoughts.

Filch heard who was speaking, sneered, and looked towards the door, confirming his suspicions.

Sure enough, it was Severus Snape, a Slytherin houser.

In fact, the identity of the person who came can be judged by the phrase "Slytherin deducts ten points" alone - who would only deduct ten points except for a professor like Snape? In the case of curfew violations, the minimum deduction is 20 points, and Professor McGonagall is afraid that 50 points will be deducted.

Lovell saw Snape too.

It was the first time it had seen the Slytherin Headmaster, a thin man with sallow skin, a large hooked nose and shoulder-length, greasy black hair that stuck to his cheeks like a curtain. He was dressed in a fluttering black robe that looked like a giant bat, and he exuded a cold, damp smell from his body.

Lovell's first impression of Snape was mediocre, as he always felt that the man's aura was too cold and a little intimidating.

"Professor Snape, why are you here?" A stiff smile erupted into Filch's face, and he didn't understand why Snape was here. Contrary to Filch's state, Gemma's mood is much lighter, and she is even hiding the smile on the corner of her mouth.

Gemma behaved this way because she knew that Dean Snape was biased towards the students of her house. Although he will inevitably be severely reprimanded, it is better than staying in Filch's office.

"I'm on patrol tonight, and I heard you and Pipsqueak messing around." Snape glanced at Filch, his deep dark eyes seemed to be able to read through people's hearts. Facing his gaze, Filch subconsciously lowered his head and did not make eye contact with him.

Snape pursed his lips contemptuously, his lips turned up, revealing a misaligned tooth: "It's really hard for our castle keeper, who is sick like that during the day, and insists on patrolling the night, it seems that Madam Pomfrey's level of dispensing has improved a lot." ”

Filch felt a sense of embarrassment that he had seen through everything, and he tried to justify himself: "Yes, it's that student, she's repeatedly violated the curfew, and I'mβ€”I'm tonightβ€”"

"Oh?" Snape's voice became softer, and he asked softly, "And Mr. Filch, do you have any evidence that Miss Farley is the student who repeatedly violated the curfew?" ”

"Of course, tonightβ€”"

Snape interrupted Filch again, "You did meet Miss Farley on campus tonight, but you can't conclude that she's the student you're looking for, right?" ”

Filch:......

"She smells of the previous student!"

Snape shook his head, indicating that the smell was not enough evidence.

"Actually, I really doubt the authenticity of the existence of the so-called 'regular curfew' student," Snape gave Filch the final blow: "Maybe that's just your speculation, Mr. Filch, you're relying too much on your cat." ”

Filch's good mood vanished, believing that if Gemma Farley had been a Gryffindor, she would have been packing her belongings home, but she was a Slytherin, so she had received the most obvious favoritism.

Poor Filch, he had no idea that as a castle keeper, it was almost impossible to expel a student. Even if it was a Gryffindor student who was caught tonight, it would definitely be handed over to Professor McGonagall, the dean of Gryffindor House, in the end.

"If nothing else, I'll go back first, Miss Farley has class to-morrow morning." Snape didn't take the matter to heart, he glanced at Filch, and when he saw that he didn't dare to say more, he gave Gemma a look, and Gemma immediately walked out of Filch's cramped office and stood obediently beside his headmaster.

Snape glanced at Lovell before leaving, but he didn't take the initiative to talk to the wolf cub. Snape didn't like werewolves, and on the other hand, he didn't have a good impression of Lovell, who was inextricably linked to werewolves.

He decided to go back and study the bottle of saliva that Dumbledore had given him, and if he could find evidence that it could infect others, Snape felt compelled to make a recommendation to Dumbledore.

Watching the captured students being taken away, Filch sat back in his chair and sulked while Lovell watched them leave.

It saw Gemma turn her head back after taking a few steps, and after realizing that she was looking at her, she lip-synched, "Welcome to the Slytherin lounge, cute wolf wolf~"

Slytherin lounges? Is there anything good to eat? Lovell thought about it, if it wasn't fun, he wouldn't bother to go.

β€”β€”β€”β€”

Please don't keep a book, please.

The brain is groggy, the concentration is sluggish, and he doesn't want to do anything but sleep.

The fever has subsided, but the throat is still very painful, and the whole person has a feeling of rust, which is really a terrible disease.

Note: As for what Snape's voice is like, I feel that the voice acting of the casting in the movie version is very good. The Chinese translation says that his voice is "oily and smooth", which should be played by the translator himself, because the original word is "silkily", mildly, softly, is a compliment. This is normal, because in the beginning, everyone did think that Snape was a villain!
