Chapter 754: Shops and Professors

Almost everyone knows that the real holidays at Hogwarts are only at Christmas and the end of the school year, and the so-called Easter holidays are all about two weeks to write the usual two-month amount of homework.

Of course, this year is no exception, and even this year's homework is not only many, but also difficult.

On the first day of the holiday, the library was overcrowded, and several of the more important books were borrowed out in less than an hour.

However, later people also found acquaintances or people from the same academy and used the copy charm to make do.

If you don't know how to copy the spell, or if no one in the entire academy arrives at the library early, you'll have to wait.

"That's crazy......" Ron said in the Gryffindor common room, scrambling to put his robe on, "I got up so early to go to the library."

"I usually wake up after nine o'clock on weekends, but it's not half past seven!"

"Say less." Harry was also putting his robes on, "Hermione made it clear on the messenger coin that the library was getting more and more crowded, it was already full, and if we didn't go there again, she really wouldn't have an excuse to take a seat for us again."

Harry looked up at the gloomy face of the man across from him, and at the greasy black hair.

"Do you want to do your homework in the common room?"

"If you're lucky, you're the only passenger."

"I didn't!" Harry couldn't help but raise his voice, "I didn't make a loud noise. ”

"Sorry, I didn't mean to." Harry subconsciously apologized.

No way......

And Harry too, so they have to go to the library, and only with Hermione's help will they be able to complete those assignments before school starts?

"It's crazy, whether it's professors or students, everyone is going crazy!" Ron muttered something and ran out of the common room with Harry.

……

"Harry, have you figured out what to do with Slughorn?" Ron took the moment to ask, "Did he invite you to dinner or something?" ”

Ron, who was on the side, was still conscious, and grabbed him in time, so that Harry didn't pull his hand out of his pocket.

There was not a single person in the hallway.

Snape waited a little longer, seeing that Harry had not moved, shook his head in disappointment, and walked past them.

Harry's face turned even redder, and he looked like he was about to explode at any moment.

"Nope." "He hasn't invited me in a long time, but I've heard that McLagan goes almost three times a week and Hermione goes twice a week. ”

It seemed that if Snape taunted again, he would give the other man a hard blow.

He didn't see who the other party was, but he saw a familiar black robe, a color and style that he would never forget even in another fifty years.

"Or do you think the whole castle is going to be for you...... Well, the Savior Star Service? ”

"It's not up to you, Potter." Snape glanced at him, "Are you so arrogant that you think you can change the school rules at will, as others call you the savior?" ”

"We're just chatting normally!" He glared at Snape and said, his hand subconsciously grasping the wand in his pocket.

"Bastard, I'm going to kill him!" As Snape's figure disappeared around the corner of the stairs, Harry suddenly gritted his teeth.

But his intentions were all too obvious.

Hearing Harry say this, Ron subconsciously quickened the movement of his hand.

"Ah, Potter...... Didn't anyone teach you to pay attention to anyone else around you when you go up and down the stairs? ”

"What then?"

Such a difficult assignment, if he were to write it alone, let alone two weeks, he would not be able to finish it in two months.

"No, that's too obvious." Harry shook his head, "I'm not here to go to a dinner party, but to find a way to get the memory of Voldemort in Slughorn's head, and if I go straight to it, I'll definitely be on guard." ”

"To be honest, I really wish you could pull out your wand so you can go home obediently, there is a return train today, just two hours later.

Harry's heart thumped twice.

A cold voice came.

"Make a loud noise in the hallway, and deduct ten more points!"

"What, do you want to do something to me?" Snape scoffed, "Thirty points from Gryffindor."

The two of them ran briskly down the stairs.

"Why don't you just go over there?" Ron proposed, "He likes you so much, he won't refuse." ”

"I guess she's trying to help you ask." Ron thought for a moment and said thoughtfully, "As you just said, she goes to dinner twice a week, and she'll definitely find an opportunity." ”

"I hope so."

"I'm not arrogant, and I don't want anyone to call me a savior!" Harry looked at Snape, his neck was bruised, he was panting, his eyes were red, and he looked like an enraged bison.

Maybe it was because he thought of Dumbledore's mission, or maybe he was so engrossed in his speech that Harry didn't pay attention for a moment and almost bumped into a man walking across from the other side.

"Snape ......," he blurted out.

You can't go wrong......

"I don't know." Harry sighed, "But Hermione said last night that she would find a way to help me, but didn't tell me exactly how. ”

"You should call me Professor Snape, Potter!" Snape said indifferently, "Disrespectful to the Professor, Gryffindor deducts ten points!"

"I know, I think so, but there's no need, Harry." Ron hurriedly persuaded, "Snape is a professor, you can't risk being expelled to do something to him, it's not worth it." ”

"I don't care!" Harry jerked out his wand, "Even if he's fired, I'm going to make him pay something!" ”

"Yes, yes, I know...... But it's really not a good deal. Ron grabbed Harry's arm and walked downstairs as he said, "Use a spell to attack the professor, if you do this, you will definitely be expelled, and Headmaster Dumbledore will not be able to protect you at that time."

"Think of the task he's given you, maybe Snape did it on purpose, just to kick you out of school."

Harry stopped where he was.

"Hurry up, Harry." Ron continued to drag him downstairs, "We all know what kind of man Snape is, you really don't have to risk being fired against him. ”

"Ron, maybe you're right." Harry said.

"Did you figure it out?" Ron said happily, "Great, let's go to the library quickly, Hermione is still waiting for us." ”

"Nope." Harry shook his head and glanced upstairs, "Go to the library yourself, I have something to do." ”

"What?" Ron was stunned for a moment, "Don't tell me you're going to find Snape, didn't you just say ......"

"Ron." Harry interrupted, "I mean, it's possible that Snape really wanted to kick me out of school. ”

He lowered his voice and said, "Snape and Malfoy have always had a good relationship, but we all know that Lucius Malfoy is a Death Eater, and Snape must be too, but he somehow gained Dumbledore's trust. ”

"What do you want to do?" "And we've guessed it, but no professor wants to listen to us, do they?" ”

"That's because we don't have evidence." Harry said solemnly, "If only we can find evidence, we can expose Snape's lies...... Now it was a good opportunity for Snape to come to the eighth floor. ”

"Does this matter?" Ron didn't understand, "He's a professor, no matter where he goes." ”

"But we've never seen him on the eighth floor before." Harry said, "Also, Professor Dumbledore is not at the school today, and he can't possibly go to the Headmaster's office. ”

"You mean he has another purpose?" Now Ron also reacted.

"That's right." Harry nodded, "So I have to go and see, as long as Snape is doing something bad, I can debunk him before all the professors!" ”

I don't know if it's because he was just deducted fifty points, Harry's expression was firm, and he turned and ran upstairs.

Ron hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and followed.

"Wait for me, Harry, it's too dangerous for you to be alone."

……

The two of them went back to the eighth floor, and when they stepped down the hallway, for some unknown reason, they all slowed down their pace, and became tiptoeing like thieves.

"Do you know where Snape went?" Ron asked.

"I don't know." Harry said, "But the eighth floor is so big, we can find it slowly." ”

"When will we find it?" Ron suddenly regretted it a little.

But when he came, he could only accompany Harry and continue to search for Snape room by room.

But what the two didn't expect was that they went around the entire eighth floor, and they hadn't found Snape yet.

Harry decided to do it again, and this time he not only quickened his pace, but without even hiding his meaning, he pushed open the door of every suspicious classroom.

But he still didn't find Snape.

"Strange, why not?" Harry grabbed his hair, his face full of confusion.

"Will he go to Professor McGonagall's office?" Ron said tentatively.

"Impossible." Harry shook his head.

He already thought in his heart that Snape was doing something bad, how could he go to Professor McGonagall's office, wouldn't that be self-defeating?

"It's also possible that there is a room for requirement." Ron stumbled upon the tapestry of the trolls dancing on a nearby wall.

"Don't forget, the Room of Requirement is broken." Harry reminded him, "We've tried so many times in the past few days, and we can't get inside. ”

"yes, where the hell did Snape go?"

The two of them chatted so engrossively that they didn't notice that a man was coming angrily from behind until ......

"Oops!" Ron let out a cry of pain and turned his head to shout, "Who hit me...... Hermione? What are you doing! ”

"I should say that, right?" Enraged, Hermione raised her hand again and tossed a small mirror at it.

This time, a defended Ron dodged and the mirror hit Harry's head.

"What the hell are you doing, why haven't you been to the library yet!"

"We're looking for Snape." Ron immediately thought of something again, "Wait, how did you get back?" ”

He didn't say it was okay, but Hermione got even angrier when he said it.

She was kicked out, of course, and in order to get a seat for the two, she turned down at least seven or eight people.

But the library is so big, and the rest of the city is already full.

Then, Mrs. Pince, who could not bear it any longer, threw her out as well, so that she could just make three seats for the others.

As soon as she thought of this, Hermione was angry, she had obviously sent a message to the two of them an hour ago, but they could grind for so long.

"I'm sorry." Harry quickly explained, recounting what had just happened.

……

"So, you deducted fifty points from Gryffindor?" Hermione didn't know what to say, "Didn't I warn you sooner, Harry, don't you fight Snape?" It's not good for you. ”

"I didn't fight him." Harry sneered and said, "He can always think of an excuse to deduct my points." ”

"Then you can talk to Professor McGonagall and see if she can add them back." Hermione didn't bother to talk to them so much, she turned around and left.

Harry cursed at Snape in his heart.

But what Harry didn't know was that the person he had in mind was actually just a wall away from him.

And half an hour ago, Snape was standing in his current position, and he slammed the wall twice with mixed feelings.

……

At this point, Snape had already taken a look around the room and returned to the foyer.

"Where's Connor?" He looked at Kyle in front of him and asked coldly.

"In the Magic Classroom." Kyle said, "It's the third classroom on the left-hand side of the second floor, and if you're okay, you'd better not bother her." ”

Don't bother Connor?

Snape seemed to have heard something rebellious, and resisted the urge to pull his wand, "Do you know what you're talking about? ”

"Of course, Professor." Kyle spread his hands indifferently, "But what's wrong with that?" Learning magic requires concentration, and sometimes if you are a little distracted, you may not understand the content behind, so you probably want to make trouble......"

Snape's expression froze.

"How?" Kyle couldn't help but laugh, "What do you think I mean, Professor?" ”

"Of course it is." Snape took a deep breath, covering his true thoughts with a strong face.

"I warn you, stay away from her!"

"I can't do it." Kyle looked into Snape's eyes and said word for word, "Yes, you heard me right...... No way, I can't do it, don't even think about it! ”

Snape blew up directly, and the little good mood he had just exchanged for Gryffindor fifty points was instantly gone.

But soon he seemed to think of something and calmed down again.

"Then you'd better be honest." Snape gritted his teeth, his voice squeezing out between his teeth, "Don't let me see you do anything excessive, or you'll regret it, I'm going to do it!" ”

"Don't worry." This time, Kyle agreed without even thinking about it.

It's definitely impossible for him to see this.

Kyle immediately put on a standard smirk and said politely, "Then Professor, the Potions classroom is on the third floor, and I'll take you there." ”

In the past few days, he has a good understanding of this place, and he knows exactly which classroom is what class.

Snape didn't say anything more, and followed Kyle to the third floor.

During this process, neither of the two spoke again, and the atmosphere was slightly awkward.

Feeling a little awkward, when he reached the third floor, Kyle took the initiative to speak, breaking the silence.

"Professor. Have you ever thought about changing jobs? ”

"What do you mean?" Snape's eyes narrowed.

"Don't get me wrong." Kyle stopped in front of a classroom door, "I mean, opening a potion shop or something, I just happen to have a shop in Diagon Alley that Sirius gave me." ”

"Really? Then he's really generous. Snape said sympathetically, "Thank you, so what the hell do you mean." ”

"Nothing." Kyle shrugged, "That's it...... Well, if Professor Dumbledore asks for something excessive, such as asking you to do a dangerous mission or something, you can actually refuse.

"Even if you can't be a professor because of this, you can still sell potions in Diagon Alley, my friend, the Weasley brothers, opened a shop in Diagon Alley, and to be honest, they make a lot of money, at least much more than the professor's salary."

"What do you mean by that?" Snape said, his face tense, not understanding why Kyle would suddenly say such a ...... Inexplicable words.

Subconsciously, Snape thought of a possibility, but he quickly rejected it.

No way...... Dumbledore couldn't have told anyone who he was, and even if he was, he wouldn't have been a student.

He stared into Kyle's eyes, as if trying to find an answer.

It's a pity that Kyle is not Harry, and he can't see anything under the protection of Occlumency.

Subconsciously, Snape reached into the pocket of his robe, which contained a small bottle.

Truth Teller ...... He brought it with him when he went out today.

"It's good if you don't have it." Kyle smiled, unconcerned about Snape's movements.

He pointed to the door next to him, "This is the Potions classroom, but Professor, I must say it's not really much to look at, and you might be a little disappointed." ”

Potions is probably the only course here that hasn't changed much, except for the type of potions that need to be configured, the rest of the process is almost the same as it is now.

However, just as Kyle was about to leave, he was stopped by Snape.

"What do you know?" He asked in a deep voice.

"I don't know." Kyle smiled and said, "Well, the Death Eaters aren't very rampant right now, and if Dumbledore asks the professor to deal with them one day, you can think of a reason to refuse...... Even if it's for Connor. ”

Snape was silent, not knowing what he was thinking, before he whispered, "The professor's job is to protect the students. ”

"I know." Kyle nodded, "I'll just say it casually, you don't have to worry about it, Professor." ”
