Hogwarts: The Book of Magic

Chapter 52 Nervous Snape
Just as Lean expected, Malfoy asked for a full three-day vacation, and the old Malfoy came to the school to handle it in person.

Afterwards, according to the memories of the house elves of the Malfoy family, Malfoy Manor that day turned into a pig slaughterhouse.

Mrs. Malfoy was crying continuously, and the little Malfoy was hung up by the old Malfoy with magic.

It can be said that those who hear it are sad, and those who see it cry.

But it also allowed Malfoy to escape a few days of confinement, although Malfoy would rather come to Snape's office to accept punishment.

In the past few days, Lean took advantage of the time when he went to Snape's office to receive punishment secretly observing Snape.

Lean didn't think Snape could resist the temptation of the Resurrection Stone, but a few days of observation completely slapped Lean in the face.

Snape was still the same, as if the previous change was just a whim.

This made Lean curious.

On Thursday, Malfoy arrived at Hogwarts dragging his broken body.

Well, no, the Malfoy family can still afford a bottle of healing potion.

But when Malfoy came to the Slytherin dormitory, the way he looked at Lean changed instantly.

There is anger, there is fear.

But these were nothing to Lian, after all, he didn't dare to really fight with himself.

At night, Lean was dealing with potions in Snape's office alone.

Whether it was because Malfoy was traumatized or not, Snape gave him a week's leave for the first time.

"Rin, when you are timid about something, what would you choose?" Snape lowered his head, marking a red cross on the homework handed in by the little wizard from time to time.

Lean was concentrating on handling the potion, when he suddenly heard Snape talking to him, he replied subconsciously: "Then don't do it, and make more mistakes."

After Snape heard this, he didn't react and remained the same.

"Professor, you haven't figured out how to deal with Lily's soul, have you?" Lean responded.

Snape was silent for a while, and then a word came out of his mouth: "Yes."

Lean already knew anyway, and didn't mind if he knew a little more.Snape thought brokenly.

"What are you worried about?" Lean stopped what he was doing, turned around and asked.

"You don't understand at all... After all, I told the story... to the mysterious man, Lily asked me, how should I answer?"

"Will she ask me how Harry is? But I haven't paid attention to him at all in the past ten years."

"Will Lily forgive me? No, no, it is impossible for Lily to forgive me. After I said that word, she will never forgive me..."

As he spoke, Snape put his head in his hands in pain.

After about ten minutes, Snape finally calmed down.

"Professor, it's eight o'clock. I think my confinement should be over." Seeing that Snape had improved a little, Lean said.

Snape nodded mechanically, he didn't hear what Lean said at all.

Rin left Snape's office after simply cleaning the dragonhide gloves and putting them on the shelf.

It took about half an hour for Snape to come back to his senses.

"Damn it, that kid didn't finish processing these materials at all!" Snape turned his head and found the pile of unprocessed potions on the operating table, cursing.

"Forget it, let's use the resurrection stone tomorrow night. I'm not free tonight, and I blame Lean for not finishing processing these materials." Snape murmured, perfectly making an excuse for himself.

It is estimated that tomorrow will use some excuses such as correcting homework.

There is nothing more timid than being close to the nostalgia.

After Lean left Snape's office, he went straight back to the Slytherin lounge.

I didn't do anything, I took a shower and lay down on the bed.

But soon an owl flew in through the pipe and threw a letter to Lean.

Lien didn't pick it up and let it fall to the ground.

"Hoo?" The owl delivering the letter tilted its head, somewhat puzzled why the recipient in front of him didn't accept the letter sent to him.

But this is obviously not a question that an owl should consider, so after thinking about it for two seconds, the owl gave up on this question. After all, as a postman, it is still very busy.

"Hazard detection."

Lean cautiously cast a magic to detect if there was something "interesting" in the letter.

After all, he cheated little Malfoy, and according to the way he looked at him today, it is very likely that he used some tricks.

Even if you can't cheat yourself, it's depressing enough to be disgusted.

Fortunately, this seemingly strange letter did not detect anything.

Lean bent down and picked it up. After opening it, he realized that it was from Pudding.

The letter stated that it had already moved all the books in Gaunt's old house to the house and had finished sorting it out. The letter asked Lien what it should do next.

Lean thought for a while, and began to arrange tasks for Pudding: first, the plantation acquired through the trade with Malfoy needed to be taken care of, and second, the botanical garden at home also needed some renovation.

After writing, Lean asked Pais to send the letter away.

Pudding, who was waiting for a reply at home, was not idle, but carried a bucket of water and began to wipe everything in the house.

After receiving the letter, Pudding was overjoyed.

A house-elf without a mission would be cast aside, and Pudding didn't want to be that kind of house-elf.

In Potions class on Friday, Snape was still in that attire, but anyone with a discerning eye could tell that Snape's hair was greasy.

"What the hell did you say about the old bat?" Ron said quietly to Harry.

"How do I know, maybe I was dumped." Harry guessed maliciously.

"No, Harry, I don't think the old bat will ever find a female companion in his life."

"I think you're right, Ron." Harry nodded approvingly, shaking off a little rat powder - a powder that reacts violently when heated.

"Oh!"

Harry's cauldron shot up into the sky, hit the ceiling of the Potions classroom, and then fell hard to the ground.

The potion inside also flew and spread on the little wizard near Harry.

And our respected Master Malfoy was very unfortunate to be patronized.

So after three days of rest, Master Malfoy was once again sent to the infirmary for an honorable rest.

"Fool! How many times have I emphasized that the cauldron must be removed from the fire to put the mouse powder in. Potter, you did that? Would it make you happy to persecute your classmates like this? Because your Mistake, ten points deducted from Gryffindor."

Snape looked at Harry with unstoppable disappointment, he was nowhere near Lily.
