[HP] Being a problem student at Hogwarts

It’s over.

Tom thought that now he might be kicked out of the Potions classroom just like Harry.

Dumbledore also saw him and showed a tired smile that he had never seen on the principal's face: "Ah... Tom, it's you."

It seemed that for the first time, Tom realized that Principal Dumbledore was indeed an old man.

"What's the matter?" Dumbledore cheered up, waved Tom in, and summoned two glasses of hot milk.

"I didn't mean to eavesdrop on your conversation," Tom whispered, watching the principal's expression carefully.

"Of course, of course..." Dumbledore took out a bottle of honey from the drawer, squeezed more than half of it into his own portion of milk, and pushed the other portion without honey to Tom.

"So there is no problem with the detection spell. Professor Snape really has no ill intentions towards Harry." Tom said.

"I saw that Detection Charm, and honestly I couldn't have done it any better when I was your age," said Dumbledore. "I'm glad to see you all have mastered this useful charm. Unfortunately, I seem to remember reminding you, Tom, that it would be impolite to cast this spell on anyone."

"I'm sorry, Headmaster." Tom felt a little ashamed on the one hand, but also a little annoyed on the other: it wasn't the spell he cast on Professor Snape!

He had to defend Harry a few words: "Professor Snape's usual attitude towards Harry is too easily misunderstood... Moreover, when he uncursed Harry's broom, we happened to see him..."

As he spoke, his mind started to spin: "So why?"

He asked: "What can make one person have a bad attitude towards another person, but in fact he has been silently protecting the other person behind his back? Why should he hide his true intentions? What is there to hide? Who is this to confuse? Haha Leigh Porter is the savior——"

The thought struck him like lightning, causing him to blurt out: "He's a spy!"

Dumbledore's piercing blue eyes stared at him through round spectacles.

The principal's unprecedented seriousness made him understand.

"I was right..." Tom murmured.

He had never thought that his dark, point-deducting potions professor would actually have such a mysterious and cool identity. Just like James Bond!

It's just that he doesn't have the same luck as Bond - wait?

"Professor Snape mentioned Harry's father. It is obvious that they have a bad relationship. You mentioned Harry's eyes - I know that Harry looks like his father and only has one pair of eyes like his mother -"

Tom looked at Dumbledore in disbelief: "So this is a bloody love affair from the previous generation? Professor Snape -"

"Tom, my son." Dumbledore had to interrupt him, smiled wryly, stretched out his fingers to rub his temples, and said ambiguously: "You have a very good imagination."

Tom sat numbly in his chair, hating for the first time that he knew too much.

"Actually, as long as you read more novels, it's not that difficult to guess." Tom said dryly, "So, you're going to erase my memory next?"

When he thought about clearing his memory, he felt a little cold, so he stood up, took down Fox who was sleeping on the shelf, and held him in his arms, like holding a warm hot water bottle, as if there was a warmth in his heart. The courage comes.

"Okay, I just hope you are good at memory magic and don't delete other irrelevant things." He buried his head in the warm wings of the phoenix and rubbed it in frustration.

Fox, who was woken up by being inexplicably pulled off the shelf, was confused: Ji?

"That's not what I meant, kid."

Tom raised his head suddenly and asked in confusion: "Why? I'm just a little wizard. I know something I shouldn't know, but I can't protect it. If someone who shouldn't know this reads it from my brain, then It's a disaster."

"You have to do it now while I haven't regretted it yet." He instructed.

"The Forgetting Curse will cause irreparable damage to the developing brain." Dumbledore replied, "What's more, you were not told, but reasoned out on your own, so even if your memory is removed, as long as you miss it Any clue will make you suspicious again."

Tom nodded: "Yes, I reasoned it out myself... Such wording... So I actually guessed it right?"

Dumbledore rubbed his temples with another headache.

"Ah... please forgive me," he muttered, "Old people underestimate young people, they are stupid and forgetful... Okay, okay," he raised his voice, "Don't ask me, Tom, those past events actually have nothing to do with you. It doesn’t matter. My child, I sincerely hope that you can enjoy your childhood without any worries.”

"Irrelevant? Carefree? It's hard to say," Tom replied. "The problem now is that we have rashly revealed Professor Snape's true position, which may have fatal consequences for his identity and life." The threat. You are so careful to conceal his true attitude. Harry has been in danger several times since he entered school. I think there may be some enemy that is difficult for us to fight. At this time, Harry was rejected by his secret protector. Continue teaching. As for me, an ordinary student who can't protect my brain, I know too much."

"There is no need to cry over spilled milk." Dumbledore said, "Let the adults worry about adult matters. As for the class issues that you, as students, are worried about - Severus's courage is beyond anyone's imagination. , He just needs some time to adjust temporarily, and he will not really reject anyone who is interested in learning from the classroom."

"What else?" Tom asked. He noticed that Dumbledore made no mention of the memory leaks he feared.

Dumbledore smiled slyly: "I forgot to tell you, didn't I? Severus is very good at Occlumency, a spell specially used to prevent the mind from being invaded by outsiders."

"...Yes," Tom looked at Principal Dumbledore expressionlessly, "How could there be a spy who is not good at memory magic?"

"Let me tell you," Dumbledore said nonchalantly, about pushing a weak and helpless Gryffindor first-year student to the Slytherin snake king who was at the peak of his emotions, and expecting the other party to learn something from the open mouth. I don't feel any pain in my conscience at all about this matter, "You two have been at war with each other for a long enough time."

Tom angrily fed the milk to Fox in his arms.
