Harry Potter: Dark Alchemy

Snape hesitated.

He waved his wand towards the wall of books on the right, and there was a teeth-piercing crunching sound. The wall of books separated from the middle and squeezed to both sides, revealing a whole row of finished potions behind it. Dark, light, or transparent medicine bottles are all labeled with gauze labels by category to show the name and effect of the medicine.

Snape waved his wand again, and the fourth bottle of potion on the left side of the third row from the bottom flew towards him immediately, with brown-green liquid swaying in the bottle.

He caught the potion bottle and handed it to Lucius. At this time, there was another crunching sound, and the book wall closed automatically, covering the shelf full of potions again.

Lucius did not hesitate, took the potion and drank it in one gulp. As the amount of potion in the bottle gradually decreased, his face became visibly more energetic, and his healthy and rosy color once again appeared on his face. Zhang's face should have been pampered.

"Thank you." Lucius gently placed the empty medicine bottle on the coffee table and nodded in thanks.

Snape put away his wand and frowned: "If I were you, I would check it in advance."

Lucius smiled needlessly. He believed in the potion skills of the man in front of him, and he also believed that he would not secrete any poison for no reason. Otherwise, he would have been knocked down by the mixed poison at the door before he entered the house. .

With a slight cough, Lucius prepared to pick up the topic again: "Severus, I don't know whether what you just said is true, and I don't have the confidence to explore the thoughts of such an excellent Legilimency master. I just want to know if the man named Jerry Green is related to the former Tom..."

Lucius really didn't have the courage to mention Voldemort's real surname, so he mumbled it in a low voice.

"I don't know." Snape still shook his head.

"Severus," Lucius said with a look of helplessness in his eyes, which looked extremely pitiful when matched with his haggard face, "the Malfoy family has been searching for several months, but has never found anything. Any information about the person named Green. Draco also told me that Jerry Green usually only interacted in the principal's office when he was in school, and ordinary students had no chance to contact him..."

"So you think that I should know the true identity of Mr. Green as a matter of course?" Snape was not moved by Lucius's words. His expression became serious and his voice sounded very sarcastic, "As a matter of course, The Head of Slytherin House, the Potions Professor, or Dumbledore's servant?"

Lucius squirmed uncomfortably on the sofa. In addition to the uncomfortable cushion, Snape's words also made him uncomfortable. But even so, Lucius still nodded with difficulty.

The emotion on Snape's face disappeared instantly, and it returned to the cold stiffness it had before Lucius walked in, like a stone without emotion. He repeated what he had just said for the second time: "I have already said it, I I don’t know the origin of Mr. Green.”

Lucius begged: "Severus, I don't know what you think, but we are all Death Eaters, and we all should know whether the Dark Lord is really back."

Snape looked at the pleading look on Lucius's face. Of course he knew what Lucius was worried about in his heart. It was nothing more than the return of the Dark Lord, which would shake him as the lofty patriarch of the pure-blood wizard family. status, or consume the huge wealth that originally belonged to the Malfoy family, or else threaten his life.

But the ruthless words of ridicule lingered in his heart for several times, and Snape still did not say it out.

"Mr. Green appeared after the first secret room attack in the school, and has almost always lived in the principal's office." Snape said firmly, "Until now."

"Jerry Green, related to the former heir of Slytherin?" Lucius was very surprised.

Snape's words instantly reminded him of another rumor.

In the wizarding world, there has actually been a lot of discussion about how Voldemort rose.

Some people say that Voldemort's powerful magic comes from his unique magical talent, while others say that the mysterious man's magical knowledge comes from his long-term accumulation and dangerous magical transformation. Some people with dark minds speculate that Voldemort is simply Dumbledore. Cultivated by hand.

However, these speculations have not been proven in any way, and their respective fans are not many.

However, there is also a rumor that seems to be vaguely confirmed by people.

That is, Voldemort was born in Slytherin Academy, and his claimed identity has always been that he is the last descendant of an ancient pure-blood family, and is closely related to the legendary Salazar Slytherin.

Therefore, many people think that the reason why Voldemort was able to achieve such terrifying strength and status is because he did not know where he obtained the magical inheritance of Salazar Slytherin, the founder of Hogwarts, which is full of unknowns. with powerful ancient magic.

Lucius didn't believe such words at first, but when he heard Snape say this, he couldn't help but become suspicious.

There may be two people who look exactly the same in the wizarding world, but that's only because they are twins, or have used Transfiguration, or simply have Polyjuice Potion.

Green's surname, Lucius, had never been heard of before. Just like Voldemort before him, both men seemed to come from unknown corners.

But two seemingly unrelated people have almost identical faces. This can easily make people think that this is the magic left by Voldemort through Salazar Slytherin, and with the help of Dumbledore's power , return from the underworld and return to youth.

"Jerry Green, is he the Dark Lord?" Lucius asked, his voice trembling, not sure whether it was anticipation, fear, or both.

"I don't know." Snape said coldly.

Jerry Green, the question of whether he is the Dark Lord or not has been bothering him.

The only thing Snape was sure of was that Jerry Green was definitely not a fake using Polyjuice Potion or Transfiguration. In other words, he should be Voldemort in his youth.

As for the young Tom Riddle, it is not certain whether he was the Voldemort they had surrendered to before.

Whether or not he should renew his oath of allegiance has always been one of Snape's concerns.

Lucius and Snape looked at each other.

Dumbledore and Voldemort.

Two names that could influence the lives of many people kept swirling in the hearts of double agents and noble family heads.

The small building at the end of the spider tail alley once again returned to a deathly silence.
