Chapter 161 Follow-up
Fortunately, Harry Potter came back safely.Even luckier, Voldemort was resurrected using Harry Potter's blood.
And Harry's experience verified Dumbledore's conjecture: Voldemort tried to touch Harry and succeeded.Tries to kill Harry, fails.
Dumbledore concealed the fact that Harry himself was a Horcrux and explained everything to him.But seeing Harry's expression, Alice knew he didn't understand at all.
But not understanding did not stop the enthusiasm of the little savior, he said loudly: "We must let everyone know, let everyone know that Voldemort is resurrected. This is too dangerous!"
Snape said nothing with a cold face, looking at Harry with mockery.Dumbledore nodded kindly, but did not respond to Harry's thoughts.
"Of course, Harry," Alice took a few steps forward resignedly, "but this matter is very difficult."
"Difficulty? Just tell everyone, use those newspapers," Harry said a little dissatisfied, "Those newspapers will not miss any clues, they would like to eavesdrop on my sleep talk."
These days, Harry was an annoyance to the all-pervasive reporter.If only he was bothered, that would be fine, but his friends, Ron and Hermione, were bothered.Especially Hermione, the newspapers have been viciously speculating about her relationship with Harry.
"It's obvious that Hermione already has a boyfriend, and Krum asked me about the report before." He said sullenly.
Fortunately Krum, despite his bulk, was still reasonable.After listening to Harry's sincere explanation, he believed Harry and Hermione's innocence.
Of course, this is also related to Harry's firm attitude.In order to reassure Krum, he even swore to Merlin that if he had the slightest affection for Hermione, or intended to step in as a third party between Krum and Hermione, he would be a virgin for the rest of his life.
"Anyone with brains will know that now is not the time for flirting," Snape mocked impatiently, "or you can go back now and confess your love to Cedric Diggory's girlfriend. "
Dumbledore showed a sigh of understanding, as if he was about to blurt out his understanding of youth and love in the next moment.
Harry looked at Snape in horror, his face paled with fright: "No, I didn't."
He always thought that he kept this secret well, even Ron didn't know that he liked Qiu Zhang!Before mentioning him, he kept it a secret. Now that Qiu Zhang has become Cedric's girlfriend, if this secret is discovered, Cedric will definitely fight him!
Harry can't guarantee that Cedric will believe in him like Krum. Although he still has a certain affection, he has given up the idea of being with Qiu Zhang after falling in love with her!
Poor Harry, Alice looked at him apologetically.I'm afraid he wasn't so frightened when facing the Dark Lord.
It was Alice who told Snape that Harry liked Cho Chang.As a licensed psychological counselor, it is easy to see through the little thoughts of adolescents.
In fact, Alice suspected that even if she didn't say it, Snape would soon find out, after all, there would not be another professor at Hogwarts who cared more about Harry Potter than Snape.
"Okay, okay, Sev, don't scare Harry with nonsense," Alice smoothed things over, "Harry, people won't believe that the Dark Lord is resurrected."
"Why?!" Harry blushed excitedly, "It's true! Cedric, Krum, Fleur, the principal, and you can all testify. By the way, there is also Barty Crouch Jr. "
"Speaking of Barty Crouch Jr., do you know why we downed two bottles of Veritaserum directly?" Alice asked a seemingly insignificant question.
After two bottles of Veritaserum, the demented little Crouch is likely to be considered unqualified to testify.But in order to hurry up and avoid arousing Voldemort's suspicion, Snape still drank two bottles.
Harry shook his head blankly.
Snape spoke at this moment: "Because the Ministry of Magic will never admit to the resurrection of Voldemort, even if Barty Crouch Jr. is sane, they will try their best to cover up his crimes. Let me think about it, because He has a grudge against Harry Potter, so what the Death Eaters did after they escaped from prison was purely spontaneous."
Harry's expression was blank, as if witnessing the darkness of an adult for the first time.
"But what about other innocent wizards? If they are not vigilant against Voldemort, they are easily in danger." He said reluctantly.
"So it is necessary to tell the truth to the masses, but not now," Alice smiled meaningfully when she thought of the letter sent by Buster, "soon, you won't even have to go to the summer vacation, you will see the Ministry of Magic voluntarily announce Voldemort is back."
After learning that Voldemort was resurrected, Buster immediately accelerated his deployment in the Ministry of Magic.In order to minimize the impact of Voldemort's resurrection on the neutral faction of the Ministry of Magic, he will immediately let the current Minister of Magic, Millicent Bagnor, step down from his post after delaying his retirement for many years.
The election for the Minister of Magic will be held before the summer vacation, and Voldemort's resurrection is also a powerful backstop for him to gain popular support.
The corruption and incompetence of the Ministry of Magic is obvious to all. At this time, a young executor who is firmly opposed to Voldemort will be expected by the public.At that time, Buster's only shortcoming: Slytherin origin, will not be so important.
Harry was still confused, but Dumbledore on the side couldn't understand what Alice meant.Although he has not been in politics, his influence is unquestionable. Almost the moment Millicent Bagno announced his re-election, he guessed Burst's ambition through intelligence.
But Dumbledore did not stop it. On the one hand, Burst did not reveal any anti-human tendencies, and his lover was even a Gryffindor.On the other hand, Dumbledore had already made up his mind to change his prejudice against Slytherin.
Except for Harry, everyone present knew what Alice meant, but Harry didn't care.Seeing Alice's seriousness, he easily believed it and happily returned to Hogwarts with Dumbledore.
"How did he trust others so easily?" After Harry left, Alice walked to the desk and asked while spreading out the experimental notes.
"Because it's stupid enough," Snape replied curtly.
Alice thought for a while: "I prefer to call it intuition, maybe people with pure minds will have this intuition."
Snape was noncommittal, he patted Alice on the head: "Sit upright, I don't want to see you looking stupid with glasses on again."
"Stupid?" Alice raised her voice, "When I wore glasses, Carrie and the others praised me for looking smarter and more intellectual."
"They are your friends, of course they will praise you." Snape patted Alice on the back and forced her to sit up straight.
Alice was still unconvinced: "But you also said that I looked fine with glasses."
"Have it?"
"Yes." Alice nodded affirmatively.She's sure of this, because after getting the glasses she worriedly asked everyone around her what they thought of the new look.And almost everyone gave her praise and praise.
"Oh," Snape recalled for a while, "if I hadn't granted your wish back then, you would have been chattering on and on again. And you said it too. What I said was okay, I didn't exaggerate you are pretty."
Alice angrily closed the experiment notes.
"What? You rested so early today?" Snape asked knowingly.
"According to your request, for the sake of safety, I have to stay at home," Alice lay on the bench, with her hands crossed under her head, quite leisurely, "The store's financial statements were processed yesterday, and I'm not in the mood to continue Research, so I declare that from now on I will take a day off and do nothing for the rest of the day."
Snape nodded indifferently at first, then quickly realized something was wrong: "Wait, what do you mean by not doing anything?"
"Literally, it means doing nothing but bathing and sleeping." Alice smiled brightly, exuding the leisurely atmosphere of being on vacation by the sea.
"Who's going to make dinner then?" Snape asked, frowning.
Alice sat up quite surprised, with an exaggerated expression: "What? Didn't you eat before I came? And as a professor at Hogwarts, you can go to school to eat."
Of course, loving her knew Snape wasn't going back.Because of the Triwizard Tournament, the students always make the auditorium extra noisy every dinner.In addition, he didn't want to meet his former colleague Karkaroff, so most of the time this semester, Snape would come back to eat after class, and then rush back to school after eating.
After not appearing at the dinner table for such a long time, Snape's sudden appearance today will inevitably arouse everyone's curiosity, and this is what he dislikes the most.
Snape pursed his lips: "Then what are you having for dinner?"
"I'm losing weight, so I won't eat today." Alice rubbed her belly. "If you don't exercise after staying at home for a long time, it will be too bad if you don't control your diet."
"You're not fat," Snape said seriously.
"I can lose as much as I want, it has nothing to do with what you think of me," Alice yawned, waved her hands, and lay down again, "You can try, is Fuqiu smart enough to cook?" .”
Seeing that Alice didn't look like she would change her opinion, Snape went to the furball's cathouse with a sullen face.
"Meow?" The furball who was biting the pink wool ball looked up, his eyes full of puzzlement.There is still some time before dinner, is the master going to give him an extra meal?
Shaking his head in disappointment, Snape went to the kitchen again and took a few loaves of bread from the refrigerator.
"Use the jar of jam on the top shelf, it's unsealed." Alice, who seemed to have eyes behind her back and was lying on the bench, commanded from afar.

After watching the latest British drama "Heartbeat Missing a Beat" (a same-sex drama) in one day, almost the whole process is sweet!Among them, the male protagonist's entanglement with sexual orientation, the difficulties and discrimination that the gay community will encounter, etc. are also well described (mainly in this case, it is too rare to ensure that the whole drama is very sweet), and Xiaotian who is interested can try it , there are only eight episodes in total and it looks like it's going fast
