Harry Potter: Who cares about belated motherly love?

Chapter 38: Get Snape to be a spy against Dumbledore

After the deal was done, the head of the Weasley family made a request.

"Oh, yes, I almost forgot something important.

I want you to keep an eye on this mouse for the time being, and never let it escape until all our preparations are complete and Sirius is cleared of all charges.

This mouse is the key. Without it, nothing can go on. I give it to you as a token of my trust in you.

You have several house-elves at home, right? Please take care of them.

Honestly, thinking of my nephew who used to love this rat, I now feel sick to my stomach even looking at it.

The key now is how to deal with the problem of Sirius.

I plan to go to him with Signora Lucrezia to explain the situation.

Although I hope you can go with me, but considering that you have always been at odds with the Weasley family and Lady Lucrezia's family, the appearance of three families at the same time may arouse suspicion. Perhaps it is better not to go together?"

I said, "If our two families go together, it might be more convincing, right? If I go alone, he might not believe it."

"In this case, timing is critical. I don't want anyone to know about our alliance with the Malfoys until the last minute."

"So you plan to clear Sirius's name while accusing Dumbledore, right? Things will get very busy after the accusation, so I suggest we do it the day before. By then, Dumbledore should have gone abroad. If we confirm that he has left, we can arrange a meeting with Sirius."

"Yes, let's do this. However, I'm still worried that he will lose control. Do you have any suggestions?"

“Um…oh, right.

We could find Lupin and hire him to keep an eye on Sirius."

"Now he may not have a job? I haven't heard that he is willing to work anywhere."

"Yeah, and Remus Lupin, does anyone know where he is?"

Bilius asked, and Edgar replied, "You can ask Snape. I've seen Lupin at his house several times, and he really does seem to be out of work."

"But Lupin is also a member of the Order of the Phoenix, right? Will this let Dumbledore know our plan?"

Ignatius expressed his concerns.

I didn't expect him to mention Snape's name. After all, he didn't seem to get along particularly well with Snape.

"Oh, you know Snape?"

"He is our VIP customer!"

"Because I was working as a handyman, helping him purchase herbs, assisting in the preparation of medicines, and recording the preparation process. I did a lot of things!"

"Don't look at him like that. He is actually very good. He even joined the Slavic Club and met the requirements to attend the German academic conference..."

"Although Lupin is a member of the Order of the Phoenix, his loyalty to Dumbledore is also crucial. If he really knew about Harry's current situation, what would he do? After all, he has a good relationship with Potter, right?"

"If that's the case, we might be able to win Snape over to our side."

He was most likely being used by Dumbledore because of his guilt towards Lily, and if he were told the truth, he would most likely turn against him.

After all, he betrayed the Demon King to protect Lily Evans' child, and if he knew the current situation, he would definitely be furious.

If his loyalty to the Lord was abandoned because of Evans, his loyalty to Dumbledore might be abandoned as well."

Chen also agreed:

"I think so."

"I once took care of the children at Maud's, and I made an exception to meet with Bill when he was preparing for the exam. It is said that Snape tried harder than McGonagall to suppress Dumbledore and helped us, so he is honest by nature. As long as he believes it is the right thing to do, he will not blindly follow Dumbledore."

"Snape is really excellent, I can guarantee it."

“Given his talent, it is hard to understand why he would become a professor at Hogwarts. With his talent, he would definitely make more money if he developed outside.

"So from that aspect, even though the personalities may not be compatible, I think he should be introduced to Fred and George."

"Who are Fred and George?"

I asked, but then thought immediately.

"Oh, those pesky twin sons of Arthur Weasley.

When the twins were mentioned, Edgar immediately became excited.

“They may be only seven years old, but they are already amazing!”

"Even though I don't have a wand yet, I can already make a lot of things within my ability."

"They are absolutely geniuses, even wizards."

“I’ve decided to save money to help the twins start their own business!”

To be called a genius by someone who was allowed to attend a German academic conference at such a young age, they must be very talented.

“Then I will invest.”

When Edgar heard what I said, he immediately became angry.

"No! If you invest, I will lose the chance to become a rich man, and you, the Malfoy family is already rich enough, forget it!"

I laughed at this with disdain:

“You know, the reason rich people stay rich is because they never miss an opportunity to make money.”

Having said that, I still admire Edgar, even though he is a Weasley, so I suggested:

"You are also very capable, why don't we become partners?"

"No! I just want to invest and experience the feeling of collecting money while lying down!"

Just as we were joking with each other, Dust Weasley interrupted us.

"Okay, okay, let's talk about these topics later.

However, it is a good idea for Snape to start a business with Edgar, Fred and George.

The twins are only seven years old, so it will take some time for them to start their own business.

After hearing about the Weasley children, Snape seemed to think that he was more suited to higher education.

He was naturally good at making little kids afraid of him.

He is an excellent teacher for motivated students.

In fact, it would be better if the classes could be separated between lower and higher grades.

But as long as that bearded old guy is still around, the reform of Hogwarts will be nothing but a dream.

From what we know so far, it seems that Snape would be better suited to focus on writing textbooks or papers, as well as drug research.

Staying in Hogwarts might not even allow you to have enough time for your own research.

Once the reforms of the wizarding world and Hogwarts are successful, I really hope he can concentrate more on his research."

Indeed, Snape might be best suited to follow this path.
