Harry Potter and the Attack of the Squibs

Snape glanced at Malfoy contemptuously: "You can ask Luke if this will make him let you go."

"Of course, if you learn Occlumency earlier, you might be able to get out of danger earlier."

Snape turned around and glanced at Harry, who was glaring at him fiercely, and then shook his head: "I think it will take you at least a year to learn, but at the beginning..."

For the first time, he seemed to be hesitant about teaching.

Snape shook his head: "You can practice with each other."

Harry and Malfoy looked at each other, both seeing disgust and excitement about the opportunity in each other's eyes.

Snape turned a blind eye to this: "Of course I can't teach you the forbidden spell of Legilimency, but there is a simple spell that can let you feel whether the other person is afraid."

Then Snape raised his wand, and there was a little white light group on it: "There is no white, but there is red. The more blurry you see, the darker the light. If you encounter a successful cast, Occlumency wizards, the light disappears completely."

After speaking, Snape waved his wand, the light group dissipated, and he lowered his right hand: "Your first lesson is to learn this spell. If you can't even learn this, then give up completely."

Harry and Malfoy.

…

After the class ended, Snape and Harry Malfoy walked out of the classroom together. They separated at the stairs on the first floor. Malfoy went back to the hall, but Harry still wanted to talk to Snape, so they followed him to the ground floor. The corridor leading to Snape's office.

"Do you have any question?"

Snape gave him a deadpan look.

Harry hesitated for a moment: "I want to know... is learning Occlumency really useful in fighting Voldemort?"

Snape looked at Harry deeply, then turned around and said, "It works."

"Voldemort is a genius Legilimency master. He can see the thoughts of any opponent almost instantly. If you really want to face him, learning Occlumency is the right choice."

Harry followed Snape as he walked down the dark corridor and breathed a sigh of relief.

Then at this moment, Harry suddenly heard a very disgusting voice that was suppressing his voice.

"Severus, you are finally here..."

That's Umbridge.

It seemed that because it was too dark in the corridor, Umbridge didn't even notice that Harry was here.

"I've been waiting for you for a long time."

Harry was very surprised as to why the senior investigator appointed by the Ministry of Magic and the deputy principal of Hogwarts was so flattering to Snape.

Then Snape said coldly: "It's time for you to go back, Harry. The Gryffindor common room is up in the tower."

Harry nodded and turned around under Umbridge's surprised gaze: "Goodbye, Professor."

Behind him, Umbridge looked at Snape in horror.

But Snape just looked calm.

"I said there is no need for us to meet."

Umbridge looked flattering: "But everyone knows that you are the person he trusts most, you have always been responsible for the most important tasks, and you know his thoughts..."

Snape shook his head: "I don't know what he is thinking. There are portraits and armor everywhere in the castle. Dumbledore can know anything if he is willing."

Umbridge smiled proudly: "Well, I think Dumbledore is not the only one with spies in the castle."

Snape glanced at Umbridge and then walked into his office.

"Don't try to guess what he is thinking. You just need to do what he asks you to do, and that will be enough to get his reward."

Umbridge looked at Snape miserably: "But I think he must want some extra loyalty, right?"

"Like Isabella Strange..."

Snape glanced at Umbridge.

For a moment, Snape even thought he was going to laugh.

Such a selfish, despicable person, who succeeds only when he fails but fails when he fails, has become a high-ranking official in the Ministry of Magic just by trying to please others. He even wants to become a high-ranking member of the Death Eaters by relying on the same tactics. It is simply ridiculous.

She probably didn't know that Voldemort liked people who were fanatical followers who didn't think about what to do, but just did what they wanted to do, such as Bellatrix Lestrange.

That is, Isabella Strange as Umbridge calls her.

"Complete the mission he gave you..."

Umbridge rubbed her hands like a young girl: "But he just asked me to create some trouble for Lu Ke, but not to anger Lu Ke..."

Snape glanced at Umbridge: "You mean, you don't know what can make Lu Ke waste time without getting angry?"

Umbridge jumped up almost like a girl: "Yes, that's it!"

Snape's face twisted slightly: "You can find something that is not a threat to us or to Lu Ke, such as a course that is difficult for anyone to learn. In that case, Lu Ke will Spend most of your time studying and not get angry.”

"This should be your mission, to waste Lu Ke's time and prevent him from noticing."

Of course, Voldemort's original arrangement was not like this, and the meaning was probably similar.

At such a critical time now, Lu Ke's greatest contribution to the Death Eaters is just staying in Hogwarts.

Umbridge cheered.

Snape then persisted in refusing Umbridge's request for special thanks, causing the high-ranking Ministry of Magic official to leave his office.

The moment the office door closed, Snape breathed a rare sigh of relief.

…

Harry sat at the long table and told Hermione and Ron about meeting Umbridge in the underground corridor.

"You said Umbridge and Snape have a good relationship?"

Ron looked like he had seen a ghost, Harry had the same look, only Hermione was better, but she also looked like she couldn't believe it.

"How is it possible...Professor Snape has been at Hogwarts all this time? He was once suspected of being a Death Eater and has no friends at all in the Ministry of Magic."

Hermione had already told Harry privately about these things, and Ron had also vaguely heard some of them.

"Then why did Umbridge go to Snape?"

Hermione shook her head: "Maybe it's about the prosecutor?"

Umbridge's review also included Snape's Potions class, but she never found a chance to speak in class. Snape always had a gloomy face and taught in his usual way. Umbridge In the end I could only leave with a disappointed look on my face.

"Maybe...but she doesn't look like she's causing trouble for Snape?"

No one can answer this question.
