Hogwarts Defense Against the Dark Arts Professor Peter

Chapter 234 The Dean Visits Himself
For two weeks, Christine studied voraciously in Zabini's study.

He gets up at 6 o'clock every morning, starts reading at 7 o'clock, and enjoys a sumptuous lunch with other people in the manor at 12 o'clock. The lively and cheerful sisters Warren makes him feel relaxed.

At 1 pm, he continues to read and study until 6 pm for dinner, after dinner, he will continue to read until night.

In Christine's extremely regular life, Gnar is undoubtedly an excellent assistant.He took care of all the trivial matters in Christine's life in good order. Three times a day, morning, afternoon and evening, he would prepare black tea and snacks for Christine to help him refresh himself.

In the past two weeks, Christine has accumulated thousands of awakening points, which is something he never dared to think about before.

It was August, and one morning, Mrs. Zabini appeared in the study with a strange expression and even a little panic.

"Christine, that...Professor Snape is waiting for you in the hall..." she whispered.

Christine stood up, "Okay, thank you, I'll go out now."

Seeing Christine getting up to go out, Gnar jumped down from the bookshelf in a hurry, followed behind him, and straightened his clothes for him. Mrs. Zabini looked at him as if she had witnessed a dead soldier go to the battlefield.

He knew why Mrs. Zabini had that look on her face: she must be terrified of Professor Snape, perhaps, or—clearly, she had read Rita Skeeter's new book, Snape: Saint or Monster? ".

In this book, Severus Snape is described as a frightening Frankenstein-like monster, he (it) is extremely fond of killing, has mood swings, and likes to eat students and kill everyone Cast an oblivion spell to make the students evaporate.

Rita also swears that the monster's guts and brain have been hollowed out by Voldemort, that he (it) has no heart, no soul, and that he (it) has nothing but broken memories.

When Rita asked questions about her childhood friend Lily Potter, Snape not only refused to answer, but also shouted hoarsely: "Get out!" She thinks this incident has proved that Snape's memory and The consciousness is extremely chaotic, and there is a serious tendency to violence. Rita said in the original words: "It roared to tear the author apart, and the author felt that his life safety was greatly threatened."

Christine suspected that it was because Snape kicked him out that Rita became so hostile towards him, and who would buy a book that made the protagonist a saint?
Christine came to the foyer, and the first thing she saw was Professor Snape standing in a dark corner with his arms folded, motionless, as if he had fallen asleep standing up.

"Professor Snape." Christine said politely.

Snape turned around, without any expression on his face, he scanned Christine from top to bottom, his eyes fell on Gnar, his black eyes narrowed.

"Tsk tsk, is the noble Master Evan already served by house elves?" He bowed mockingly.

Christine didn't answer, he knew that Professor Snape was still remembering last semester's Christmas grudge, but Gnar took a few steps forward, puffed out his thin chest indignantly, "Who are you? How dare you Speak insultingly to Master Evan!"

Snape raised his eyebrows and pouted his lips. This expression undoubtedly angered Gnar. He raised his hand and snapped his fingers. There was a deafening explosion in the air, and the turbulent air wave rushed towards Snape. However, Snape Nepe just gave his wand a lazy flick, and the air returned to calm.

Unconvinced Gnar was about to release another spell, Christine raised a hand, "That's enough, Gnar, this is the new head of Slytherin House, not an enemy." As he spoke, he turned to Slytherin. Nepe, bowing slightly, "Professor, it's not time to start yet... And why did you come in person? You can write, can't you?"

"Perhaps—" Snape paused, "maybe, I wrote you many letters, and you left your house without permission, went to a place where the owl couldn't find you, and didn't talk to me—er— —Say hello. Well, maybe Master Evan doesn't think much of us mortals, so I was lucky enough to brave the scorching sun looking for you everywhere, thank you very much."

"Sorry to trouble you," Evan said flatly, "I didn't know that Zabini's house had magic to prevent owls from tracking it."

Snape sneered, "Oh, it seems that living in a commoner's house is no longer enough for you, you are very ambitious..." He looked at the gorgeous and exaggerated ceiling in the foyer of Zabini's house, "But you still don't understand The rules of the wizarding world, you are still a—”

This time, Snape paused for a long time, with a malicious smile on his face, Christine knew that he had completely offended the headmaster last school year, from the time Snape appeared in the hall until now , every word he said mocked Christine's humble origins, and Christine waited for Snape to say the phrase "Mudblood".

"—a layman," said Professor Snape at last, stretching his folded arms out from under his hooded black robes, "well, Christine, I want to talk to you, if you If you can keep your house-elf friends away..."

"Gnar." Christine ordered briefly, and Gnar bowed and disappeared behind the gate.

Snape waited quietly for a while, looking straight into Christine's eyes, and when he confirmed that Gnar had gone far, he spoke again——

"Magic is awakening."

Snape's slow, deep voice echoed in the hall, and Christine's heart seemed to jump a beat. Has his secret been discovered?Could it be that Snape's dark eyes had read into his heart?
"I don't understand..." Christine showed an innocent and naive expression, and Occlumency was fully operational.

"You don't understand, do you?" Snape paced slowly around Christine, the black robe swaying around him, "Magic, is the ability to externalize internal power. It follows the explosion of ancient nova came to this world, flourished for a while, then slowly declined, and is now only passed on in the blood of a very small number of wizards. But now, magic has been revived again, and what is even more worrying is that the scope of this revival is not limited to The wizarding world."

"Professor, this means that many former muggles will become wizards, and those who were wizards will become more powerful. As the wizard population increases, the International Statute of Secrecy will soon become a thing of the past. ?"

"You understand very quickly, Christine," Snape turned to face Christine again, "This school year, Hogwarts' acceptance pen has recorded the names of 400 people..."

"It's too bad," Christine said perfunctorily, "but why are you looking for me alone?"

"If you let me finish, you'll know everything, Christine," said Snape, "—the school obviously can't accommodate so many new students, so we have to break the rules and screen the admission list, In the process, we discovered that you, too, are a pure Muggle."
