Chapter 133 Boggart
"You were right not to forgive him," said Alice through gritted teeth. "That's what happens after you apologize."
To be precise, I apologized last night, and this happened during the day today.
"I remember that you were the one who wanted to buy this sofa cover." Snape was very calm, just like the Boggart in Defense Against the Dark Arts class. The school will not reimburse the loss of items.”
"This is different from the material of the clothes." Even so, Alice let go of the fabric in her hands.Then she became angry, "Why are you so calm?"
"If you wish me to announce Remus Lupine's werewolf status to the whole school now, I'd be more than happy to do so." Snape replied, with obvious expectation in his tone.
"Of course it's impossible. I'm afraid not only Lupine, but even the headmaster will be criticized." Alice sighed.
In fact, she didn't think that Lupine deliberately guided Neville to turn Boggart into Snape, but she was very dissatisfied with the results of this teaching method.
First of all, students should not be allowed to face their Boggarts in public. Not every student is willing to share their privacy with others.Lupine can let the students face the Boggart alone, and guide him from the sidelines, even if it is a curtain?
The second is the impact of this incident.Regardless of the cause, intentional or not, his behavior has essentially caused insult to others.
In the end, it would have been fine if Lupine had done it on purpose, but after all, he really didn't do it on purpose.This makes people angry.
"I thought that having two incompetent professors at Hogwarts was already the limit." She said eccentrically, "I didn't expect that Lupine, who looks reliable, is actually not reliable."
After hearing this, Snape finally looked up: "Two incompetent professors? Who else but Hagrid?"
"What do you think?"
Snape narrowed his eyes: "I find that someone is getting bolder."
Alice touched her nose subconsciously, and then quickly put her hand down again. She must seize this opportunity!
"Shouldn't you reflect on it?" she said bravely. "Your attitude towards Gryffindor and Neville is very problematic."
"Ah."
"Don't deny it..." Alice stuck, "What do you mean?"
Snape put on a look of listening: "I have a big problem with Gryffindor and Longbottom's attitude, and then?"
"Then you should correct it," said Alice dryly.
Snape nodded: "That's a good suggestion."
Good advice means that Alice said it well, but he didn't intend to do it.
Alice was angry at first, then thought of something, and quickly calmed down again: "I remember you really wanted to teach Defense Against the Dark Arts."
"Indeed."
"Do you not want to teach ordinary students, such as Neville Potions?" Alice curled her lips in displeasure. "I doubt it. You think other people can't learn such advanced subjects as potions."
She specially added the accent on the word "high and deep".
Snape showed a smile: "Well, if my students are as smart as Miss Hall, I will still be happy to teach."
Alice gave up completely. She leaned on the armrest of the sofa and said bitterly, "Do you still remember what I said before that I hope you become the headmaster of Hogwarts?"
"deep impression."
"I think it's better to forget it. After Voldemort is defeated and Harry Potter is not in danger, you should concentrate on researching potions." Speaking of this, Alice was a little happy again, "Not everyone is like me. If one line of work loves one line of work, one can do well in any line of work.”
Snape raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and then said slowly: "I..."
"Meow~"
The sudden cat meow interrupted the conversation between the two.The meow was unusually unpleasant, as if it had been forced out of the cat's throat.
Alice frowned, and looked at Snape suspiciously: "Do you have another cat in the cellar?"
"No." Snape stood up and walked to the door, "You'll know if you don't see it."
"Furball!" Looking at the white cat staggering in, Alice was a little puzzled at first, and then screamed after seeing the thing in its mouth, "What is that!"
"Meow?" Fuqiu tilted his head, and walked a few steps closer with the mouse in his mouth.
"Wait!" Stopping the further movement of the fur ball, Alice touched her head, feeling a little dazed, "Are you a mouse eater?"
"I want to clarify that furballs are cats, and cats eat mice." Snape sat on the sofa as if watching a show.
"But it hasn't eaten it before!" Alice's voice became sharper. "What if it catches the mouse and jumps on my bed one day?"
"I remember you are not afraid of mice." Snape asked suspiciously.
"You're not afraid of mice, would you like to have a dead mouse on the bed?" Alice asked excitedly.
Then she took a deep breath and tried her best to calmly walk in front of Fuqiu: "Hey, has mom always been good to you?"
"Meow!"
"I won't stop you from eating mice. After all, it's your nature, and it can help your family eliminate pests. However, you must not eat them in front of me, let alone bring mice to bed!"
The furball didn't speak, and it silently led the mouse to Snape's feet.
"What do you mean? I don't need rats for the latest potion." Seeing that the rat was still struggling in the furball's mouth, Snape added, "Not dead or alive."
"Meow~" The mouse kept struggling in the fur ball's mouth, but the fur ball neither killed it nor opened its mouth, just kept screaming.
At this point, both Alice and Snape realized that something was wrong.Fuqiu is usually so smart that he doesn't look like a cat at all, but today's behavior is really abnormal.
Alice hurried to the desk and took out a crystal ball from the drawer on the right.
"When did you put it in? Why didn't I know?" Snape asked, looking at his own desk and then at Alice, "If I remember correctly, it's my desk."
"It was just released yesterday. I asked you, and you said that there are no important documents that can be cleaned casually." Alice said calmly, "One at home, one in your office, and one in my office. You can see that this will come in handy." ?"
[I don't eat mice, it's too tiring to catch them. ]
The crystal ball made a female voice, and both Alice and Snape turned their eyes to the fur ball.
[You should develop another male voice, it is a boy. ] Even with something stuffed in his mouth, Furball still speaks clearly.
"Why do you still catch mice when you are tired?" Alice asked, pointing to the mouse in its mouth.
[He is meow meow, there is a problem. ]
Snape looked at Alice, and Alice spread her hands: "It originally only recorded daily vocabulary, maybe it said some special vocabulary."
"You mean 'him'?" Snape asked Furball after a moment of thought.
Alice's expression froze, and she immediately thought of Animagus.
[Yes, I foresee that he is a very important person. ]
As soon as the crystal ball finished translating, the mouse in the fur ball's mouth stopped struggling, and the office fell into a deathly silence.
"Severus," Alice asked with some fear, "is he Sirius Black?"
Snape shook his head, waved his wand, the furball opened its mouth cleverly, and an iron cage closed the mouse.
"You take the fur ball home first." He stuffed the fur ball into Alice's arms.
Alice was a little unhappy: "I won't hold back here, and isn't this already caught?"
"Hey, take the fur ball home first before you come here by yourself." Snape said beside her. "The fur ball is so special, the less people know about it, the better."
Alice's complexion changed, she knew the greed of human nature.A magical cat that can only understand human language, read books and read newspapers is just more interesting in the eyes of wizards, but a cat that can prophesy is different.
Standing in the fireplace, she saw a flash of light from Snape's wand and knew it was a summons to Headmaster Dumbledore.
"My dear, you are great. Stay at home for a while, and mom will be right back." Hastily stuffing the fur ball into the nest, Alice hurried back to school without stopping.
How would Severus explain this to Dumbledore?You can't figure out that a mouse is an Animagus somehow.
If it is really impossible, it is okay to tell the truth to the principal, Alice thought, she has great trust in the principal's behavior.
"Principal Dumbledore." As expected, Alice had already arrived, stepped out of the fireplace, and Alice greeted the principal.
"Oh Alice, I don't know whether it's a surprise or a shock today." Dumbledore's tone was still light, but he looked at the iron cage with a serious and sad expression.
sad?why sad?Alice thought strangely.
"The mouse that stole the potion ingredients?" Dumbledore changed his expression and winked at Alice mischievously. "It is indeed very suspicious."
This reason sucks.Alice glanced to the side, but Snape didn't change his face.
"This matter is very special. I'm afraid there must be someone from the Ministry of Magic." Dumbledore stepped forward and carefully observed the rats in the cage. "Wait a minute, the Ministry of Magic should have received my message." gone."
"Your excuse is too bad." Taking advantage of the headmaster's efforts to study the mice seriously, Alice complained in a very small voice, "Idiots also know that there is a problem."
"The Hogwarts matter can't be hidden from Dumbledore, and it's meaningless to bother to make up a reason." Snape said, "He should think that you discovered it, and I kept it secret to protect you."
The furball is her cat, so there seems to be no problem, Alice thought uncertainly.
"Sorry, we're late." A cold voice came from the fireplace.
Why is it a little familiar, but it seems not very familiar?Alice looked up and saw the two leaders opened their eyes wide.
