Hogwarts: The Book of Magic

Chapter 37 A Transaction

"And then watch her hide in another Gryffindor's arms like you? And you can only curl up in the quilt like a poor wretch in the middle of the night and moan helplessly?" Lean's face There was no expression on his face, as if he was stating a fact.

Snape's empty eyes finally heaved, he opened his mouth slightly, stood up, and clenched his hands tightly.

But in the end he sat down, and the clenched fist was loosened.

"You can go back now, Zell." Snape's voice was a little hoarse, his eyes staring blankly ahead.

"I have a deal, would you like to hear it?" Lean walked to Snape's desk and stared at the sad professor.

But Snape didn't respond, just sat on the chair and continued to correct the Potions homework handed in by the seniors.

"There is such a story in "The Tales of Beedle the Poet". It says that there were three brothers who met death after crossing the river." Lean slowly paced back and forth in Snape's office. walk around.

"Reaper was impressed by their superb magic, so he thought they could win a prize from himself. The boss wanted a very powerful wand, so Death broke off a branch from the elderberry by the river to make a wand. That's the Elder Wand."

"The second brother wanted to have the power to resurrect the dead, because he thought it would shame the god of death, so the god of death picked up a stone from the ground and handed it to him. This is the resurrection stone."

"The third child is very smart. He wanted to hide out of the jurisdiction of the god of death, but the god of death had no choice but to give him an invisibility cloak, which is the legendary invisibility cloak."

Snape didn't change his homework at this time, he looked up at Rin, as if he was looking at a clown.

"Did Zell, the brave man we dared to cast the Kedavra Curse at the opening ceremony, start to believe these children's bedtime stories?"

Snape gave two "hehe" with a half-smile, and continued: "If I were you, I would read some useful books instead of studying a collection of stories. Because those books can increase your knowledge, and the collection of stories will make you stupider than a troll."

Snape paused after finishing speaking, then picked up the quill, dipped it into the ink bottle, and continued to correct his homework.

Lean didn't care about Snape's performance, because it was really hard for ordinary people to believe it.

"In the second row on the right side of the entrance to the library, in the second row of the bookshelf in the middle of the third row is a copy of "Potion Refining: From Beginner to Master". You can go and read it. I think it can make you look more knowledgeable. Well, people outside the province say that a young wizard born in Slytherin hasn't even learned a tenth of what his headmaster can do."

Rian was about to continue, but was interrupted by Snape.

This made Lean stand where he was, not knowing what to do. Once Snape said this, the original atmosphere disappeared.

"What are you still standing here for, get out!" Snape yelled seeing that Rin was still standing there.

"Professor, do you think the Deathly Hallows don't exist?"

Snape's hand paused slightly, and a drop of ink dropped from the quill, soaking a large area of ​​text in an instant.

"I don't want to hear your stupid speech anymore." Snape waved his hand impatiently.

"The invisibility cloak handed down by the Potter family, the old wand in Professor Dumbledore's hand. These all exist. Can't the last Deathly Hallows exist?"

Lien said to himself, and after he finished speaking, he started to walk out the door.

"Come back." As Lean expected, Snape stopped him.

Turning around, he faced Snape's knife-like eyes.

"Gaunt's old house." Lean lived up to Snape's expectations and spit out a place name.

Snape didn't doubt him, stood up and was about to go out.

For him now, even if it is a scam, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, he wants to try it.

Maybe it would make him feel better.

"The door is locked."

A spell hit the door of Snape's office, and it creaked shut.

Without saying a word, Snape drew his wand and turned to point at Rian.

"Armor protection." Lean subconsciously cast an iron armor curse on himself.

Then I felt unsafe, and added a magic shield to myself, which is a spell from the Book of Ten Thousand Laws.

"Professor Snape, please don't worry, you will only lose your life in vain if you go so recklessly now." Lean waved his hand, signaling Snape to calm down.

At this moment, Snape also realized that his actions just now were somewhat inappropriate, so he began to use Occlumency to suppress his emotions.

Lean breathed a sigh of relief seeing Snape put away his wand.

He didn't want to have a fight with Snape.

"Ever heard of Horcruxes?"

Lean's words made Snape's pupils shrink, and the Occlumency was broken instantly.

Snape touched his left arm subconsciously, then suddenly realized something, and quickly put down his right hand.

"It seems that you guessed it?" Lean said with a smile.

Snape still looked so indifferent, but there was a little complicated look in his eyes.

"He's not dead," Snape said.

As if the words had exhausted all his strength, Snape slumped down on the chair after finishing speaking.

"Maybe we can work together, Professor. As I said, it's a deal." Lean smiled and sat in front of Snape, who now took the initiative.

Looking at the smiling face, Snape suddenly felt uncomfortable.

"Where did you know so much, are you not afraid of me telling Professor Dumbledore?" Snape growled.

"There is only one resurrection stone, Professor."

Yes, there is only one resurrection stone, and no one can guarantee that the resurrection stone can resurrect people infinitely.

And everyone has someone who wants to be resurrected, and it just so happens that Snape knows who Dumbledore most wants to be resurrected.

At the same time, Snape also knew that once he learned of the existence of the resurrection stone, the old man would definitely exert great power to seize the resurrection stone.

"What's the deal?" Snape thought for a while, and finally agreed.

Although he can shake his sleeves and do it alone now, who can guarantee that Rian will not run to Dumbledore to have another conversation at this moment?

Lean was right, there was only one resurrection stone.

Snape didn't take the gamble.

"I need you to give me practical training and Voldemort's soul left in the resurrection stone."

"You have a way to deal with the remnant soul of the mysterious man? You know, it's the Dark Lord."

Snape frowned, not sure if it was because Lean said "Voldemort", or Lean had the ability to deal with Voldemort's soul.
