Chapter 856 [2018 Christmas Special Extra HP]
Chapter 856 [2018 Christmas Special Extra HP]
That night, when Liu Quan was summoned to the principal's office again, the news she heard could be called extremely absurd.
Maybe it's because the original novel gave Harry a little bit of cheating, and now Harry's combat power is a little higher than in the original novel.At the same time, his mastery of Occlumency seems to be a little better - which means that it is no longer so easy for Voldemort to torture and mislead Harry through their spiritual connection.
Harry still had a headache, and the occasional nightmare that Voldemort wanted him to have would happen - but not as many.
Therefore, when Dumbledore talked to her about "these gratifying developments of Harry", Liu Quan thought he just wanted to talk to her about the only good news in recent times, so as to cheer her up.
Who knew that Dumbledore's next sentence succeeded in scaring her so much that she nearly jumped out of her chair.
"So, my boy, that person has to find another way - what he wants to know now is whether there is any way to restore the... er, relationship between Severus and you."
Liu Quan almost thought he heard it wrong.
After spending several minutes, she finally digested the hint behind the old principal's words, laughed angrily, shook her head, and asked in disbelief: "...how could he think— — Marriage contract is like him, he can be resurrected at will if he wants to?!"
The old headmaster smiled and replied: "Perhaps that person felt that there was a special friendship between you and Severus, which was enough to provide the basis for the restoration of this marriage contract - after all, what happened at the Christmas ball, maybe someone As strong evidence, talk to him and tell him."
Liu Quan: "..."
"...No, I don't think that person is naive enough to think that a dance can change anything—" She froze for two seconds, trying weakly to make a final justification for Voldemort's emotional intelligence.
And the headmaster of Hogwarts, the respected and respected leader of the White Wizard, as if he didn't hear her rare speech trying to justify Voldemort's EQ, smiled and picked up a plate of chocolate frogs from the table, and spared no effort to sell to her: "Would you like one, Lily?"
She was startled, grabbed a writhing chocolate frog from the plate in a hurry, and said with self-loathing: "...so why did you ask me to come here again? It's just because that person was born Some whimsy-"
The old wizard smiled kindly.
"Oh, Lily, maybe that's not a 'wonder'." He pointed to the stone basin in the corner, "Maybe you'd like to take a look?"
She bit off half of the chocolate frog as if venting her anger, and stared at Dumbledore who seemed to be in a good mood. "Professor Dumbledore, what are you implying? Is there something... that I don't know about?"
Dumbledore waved his wand at the stone basin, and the stone basin flew over and landed gently on the table in front of him.The basin is shrouded in silver light, crystal clear and beautiful.
"Why don't you go and see for yourself, Lily?"
She hesitated for a moment, and realized that this matter was the reason why he came to her tonight.She popped the remaining half of the chocolate frog into her mouth too, and dipped her face into the Pensieve.
After a split second, she found herself standing in the corner of a dark room.And that figure in black robe that she was very familiar with stood in front of a snake-faced man, his attitude seemed very submissive.
The disgusting snake-faced man was hissing in a poisonous snake-like way: "... so that old fellow Dumbledore really believed that you wooed the Gryffindor Flower Sincerity is why you are willing to testify and exonerate you, so that... uh, 'a pair of well-matched and loving young people hold their wedding as scheduled'?!"
The way he said it gave her goosebumps.
Snape's tone was very respectful and docile. "I am afraid so, my lord."
The snake-faced man hissed and laughed, as if he was very disdainful. "Tsk tsk, he really still believes that 'love' can solve everything?! Then what happened later that made you, my faithful servant, not marry that Mudblood?"
His vicious and sarcastic tone made her sick.This feeling was completely different from the feeling when Snape was provoked by the Marauders at the lake, lost his mind in anger, and blurted out calling her a "Mudblood".At that time, she could hear that he was just saying angry words, trying to counter Gryffindor's humiliation of him with a little swearing that could poke the other person's weakness.And now, she knew that Voldemort really thought so, that he grimly thought these Muggle-borns were as disgusting as Muggles, and they should all be damned.
Snape, however, didn't seem to notice the word Voldemort spit out, and continued to lower his head, seemingly respectfully replying: "Just like your point of view about those Mudbloods, after being exonerated by her, I don't think I'll ever Couldn't stand living in the same house with that filthy blood. I wouldn't do anything that wouldn't help your cause. Presumably she, like those stupid Muggles, expected her suitors to behave I need to be more active and enthusiastic... So when I stopped showing her due enthusiasm, she quickly complained to me..."
Voldemort laughed a few times happily, touched his chin and said: "In this way, that annoying lioness has voluntarily given up on being entangled with your marriage contract. Oh, Severus, this is really shocking." It's a pity." He said hypocritically, "Although I really appreciate your views on those mudbloods, I have to say that under the current situation, you have the highest level of trust from that old fellow Dumbledore, It's clearly a more important thing."
Although Snape was motionless, she could still feel that his whole body tensed for a moment, and then he relaxed his muscles, and said meekly: "Oh, of course, I am willing to obey any orders you have, Master .”
Voldemort seemed finally satisfied, nodded, and said, "This is another good opportunity for you to show your loyalty to me... Severus, if you must marry a Gryffindor to get the Order of the Phoenix With 100% trust from those morons at the Ministry of Magic, then you better do that. You know, I had high hopes for you as a Death Eater undercover at Hogwarts and that old guy. Next Some of the actions we're going to do might alert Dumbledore—you know, he's not someone who loses vigilance about all the details around him because the world has been peaceful for too long. That mudblood might be able to confuse some People, many of her traits are eye-catching-Gryffindor's top student, the current Hogwarts professor, Mudblood, parents have been cleaned up by Death Eaters... If such a woman chooses you as her husband, Then it will be impossible for anyone to doubt your loyalty to Dumbledore and the lunatics in the Order of the Phoenix. Severus, my loyal servant, this matter is not difficult for you, right?"
For a brief moment Snape seemed to freeze in a daze.But the vigilance of being a double agent for a long time made him immediately bowed deeply, and replied in an unprecedentedly respectful tone: "If this is your order, then of course I will do it, master."
Liu Quan, who was on the sidelines, couldn't help but smiled wryly.
She didn't even know that what she, Lily, did was so... valuable.No wonder Dumbledore, that sometimes treacherous old wizard, smiled so weirdly before entering the Pensieve.He must have been very proud of Snape's disguise in front of Voldemort, even though his testimony after the first battle exonerated Snape, it didn't make Voldemort doubt Snape's loyalty - or, Suspicious to the point of immediately removing Snape as a traitor.
And, from what little she knew of Dumbledore, she thought he was happy to see "young love come to a good conclusion"—that is, he was happy to see a reluctant Snape Exchanging sacred and unbreakable marriage vows with her fake Lily.
In a blink of an eye, she had already left the scene in the Pensieve, and stood in front of Dumbledore who was smiling very happily.She suspected that his long white beard was about to curl up happily with three or four bows tied on it.
She said dryly: "Oh, very good. So, you called me tonight because you hoped that I would cooperate with that villain's scheme."
Dumbledore seemed quite pleased with her disrespectful slur for Voldemort.
"Oh, my dear boy, although that man was successfully led in a completely wrong direction by Severus, we have to admit that he may have finally done a good thing unintentionally." He teased replied.
Liu Quan smiled sarcastically: "You mean to force me a husband who hates me so much that he wishes I would die immediately so that he can return the person he really loves to him right away?"
The smile on Dumbledore's face slowly faded.He looked a little more serious, looked at Liu Quan's face with pity, shook his head, and said, "My child, you may be wrong. Things may not be as bad as you imagined. You know—"
Liu Quan interrupted him without a trace of respect, "I know he lives in regret every day. Although he is still so young, he looks as if his life is over. My existence is just a deeper level of respect for him. I wonder why he hasn't tortured himself to death in this situation, a daily reminder that he has unintentionally betrayed the woman he loves the most, and is powerless to do anything about the injustice that she has suffered. In other words, I doubt how he can endure me appearing in front of him every day."
Dumbledore watched her, sighing slightly.Like an elder who really cared for her, he put down the candy plate in his hand, walked around the table and walked to her, put a hand on her shoulder, and patted her lightly as if comforting.
"Oh, Lily, you know that's not the case. We all make mistakes, and we all pay for our mistakes. But you don't need to take on things that you didn't do. And I think you know, None of us can force Severus to do something if he really doesn't want to..."
"Yes." She stubbornly stuck her neck, and said firmly, for some reason, she suddenly felt a burst of grievance and sadness at that moment.
"So he is willing to do anything for Mrs. Beryl Potter, including exchanging vows with me, a fake, in front of the altar."
Anything.He once said this when begging Dumbledore to help protect the real Lily.
And her?What did she get?That day, before he went alone to face the trial at the Ministry of Magic, he had said to her coldly: It's all over.is everything, everything.
Everything.
Some pain of being misunderstood and wronged made her heart twitch.Tears welled up suddenly and swirled in her eyes; so fast that she didn't even have time to hold back.
This sad expression may have surprised the old wizard in front of her, he seemed a little at a loss, touched his white beard hanging on his chest in embarrassment, and stammered: "Oh, my Child, you should know that my intention is not to make you sad... Although I also hope that you and Severus can get a good ending, I persuade you to agree to cooperate with that person's arrangement... But if it makes you painful , you don't have to force yourself, we have other ways to deal with it..."
The fragile outburst is only a momentary thing, and all the sanity has returned.She quickly wiped away the teardrops from the corners of her eyes, raised her head and looked directly at the old wizard, and said, "No, no need. I am willing to accept all your arrangements. Moreover, I am also willing to use my limited advantages to try my best." Cover Severus and keep him safe..." In order to cover up her gaffe just now, she even joked, "I must be short of sugar supplements recently to be emotionally unstable, I think."
Always smiling gently, the old principal who hid everything under a calm and joking expression didn't immediately burst into laughter.
His eyebrows hidden under the piles of white hair and white beard frowned imperceptibly, and his sharp eyes stayed on her face for a moment.But he didn't continue to say anything, but turned back and picked up the overstuffed candy plate.
"So, you need some Honeydukes limited edition sweets, my boy." He winked at her, reassuring as always.
"Candy brings good luck."
