Hogwarts on the tip of the tongue

A brief silence.

The atmosphere in the entire underground classroom seemed to have suddenly stagnated for a moment.

"You must be joking, right?"

After a moment, Snape opened his mouth with difficulty, his voice a little hoarse.

The black-robed wizard looked past "Mr. Otto Apocalypse" and looked back and forth at the silver-haired little witch who also looked shocked. His eyes suddenly became particularly complicated - Grindelwald's granddaughter?It is indeed a rather troublesome existence.

"I hope so too, but unfortunately, Gellert Grindelwald himself admitted it."

Dumbledore said, raising his head and glancing at Grindelwald, who was also solemn, while shaking the back of his hand helplessly.

"Severus. Otherwise...do you think anyone else is worthy or capable of making me make an unbreakable vow."

The old man's face was full of helplessness.

There is no doubt that the story and twists and turns behind forcing the most powerful wizard in the world to make such a promise are definitely far more difficult than Snape could imagine.

"I understand."

Snape leaned on the edge of the podium, breathed a long sigh of relief, and frowned as if he had made up his mind.

"I didn't expect him to be a descendant of Grindelwald, so I really need to be careful. So that intrusion this morning..."

"I, you..."

At this moment, Elena, who had been silent since Dumbledore told the shocking news, suddenly made a strange sound, as if something was stuck in her throat.

"Ok?"

"Well?"

The two old men turned their heads in unison and looked at Elena with a loving but meaningful look.

"..."

After instantly coming into contact with the information in the eyes of the two old guys, Elena couldn't help but twitch the corners of her mouth.

These two colluded old potatoes and old carrots are simply too bad - is it really good to join forces to bully poor Professor Snape like this?Moreover, after watching, the two of them will definitely find ways to continue to fool the professor.

In this case, she must do something.

"I...do I really have any relatives alive?"

Elena's lips trembled, her eyes drooped slightly, and she carefully held the "ancestral necklace" floating on her chest with both hands. There was a hint of timid hesitation in her tone, as well as a well-hidden joy.

After a slight pause for a few seconds, the girl slowly pressed the pendant on her chest, raised her head and looked at Snape beside her with a wet and pitiful look like a deer, and asked in a low voice.

"Professor, is my grandfather a bad person? Why are your eyes and face so ugly..."

Thanks to the ubiquitous bloody TV series in her previous life, although she was a little caught off guard, with the bonus of acting skills in her bloodline, Elena's subsequent expressions and movements were simply perfect - at least, she could feel it. The aura that Snape had just raised beside him dissipated a lot in an instant.

"..."

Caught off guard by Elena's hazy and timid eyes, Severus Snape's harsh comments that he had been planning were suddenly stopped. He raised his right hand to cover his mouth and cleared his throat unnaturally.

"Grindelwald, well, Mr. Gellert is a rather complicated person."

"So Professor Snape, you must know some stories about him. Can you tell me some?"

Elena held the pendant in her hand hard and looked at Snape with hope and anxiety, as if she were looking at an omniscient elder. It made people feel that even rejecting her question would be a big deal. sin.

Snape nodded stiffly, glanced at Dumbledore subconsciously, and shook his head quickly.

"... Regarding this, Professor Dumbledore will naturally tell you when the time is right."

"Sure enough... nothing has changed?"

Elena curled her lips a little aggrievedly, and the little hair on her head lay down listlessly. She let out a frustrated sigh, her eyes quickly became hazy, and she was about to cry the next moment.

Faced with such a pitiable little guy, even Snape didn't know how to deal with it.

The cold mask he was best at had no effect at all in this situation - he really wanted to coax him, but he was afraid of making people cry, which made Snape feel at a loss for a moment.

As for the questions and worries that Snape originally wanted to ask, they had long been forgotten.

Grindelwald and Dumbledore looked at each other and raised their eyebrows tacitly, this is talent.

GG——Did you teach me this reaction?

AD——I didn’t, you taught me?

GG/AD - This little girl movie is really bad.

"Don't ask Professor Snape any more. I know this may be a little hard for you to accept for a while."

Dumbledore rubbed his forehead with a headache. The old man coughed lightly and persuaded gently.

That's enough. If Elena continues to improvise, the situation may become uncontrollable.

"Professor Dumbledore, can you take me to see my grandfather, I mean...that Mr. Grindelwald?"

However, Elena, who is addicted to acting, obviously does not break out of the drama so easily.

The girl raised her head, slowly pressed the pendant on her chest, looked at Dumbledore and said softly.

"This pendant has been on me since I can remember. Although I can't eat or speak, it has always been with me like a reliable elder... If you can, can you say thank you to my grandfather. "

As she spoke, Elena glared at Grindelwald who was eating his fourth cheese-baked snail with a sharp look. This old potato took advantage and dared to eat her snail. He simply had no desire to survive. No.

"you are welcome."

While tasting the food, Grindelwald replied softly and vaguely, and reached out to the fifth cheese-baked snail - I have to say, the craftsmanship of this white-haired dumpling is indeed nothing to say, compared to those of the house elves. They are all much higher.

"Based on my understanding of Grindelwald, the idealist who changed the structure of the wizarding world to a certain extent does not care about these formal verbal thanks... As long as you can attend school safely, he should be satisfied. "

Compared to Dumbledore, who still needs to be careful with his words, Grindelwald, who is currently wearing the identity of "Paracelsus", can be said to be the highest-status person in the audience. As a man who is close to [-] years old, A living fossil in the wizarding world, his words are naturally the most powerful.

Snapped!

Before Grindelwald's hand could touch the fifth cheese-baked snail, a small white hand quickly came out and mercilessly slapped the old man's hand away from the top of the tray.

"Mr. Otto, this kind of high-calorie and high-sugar food is not suitable for elderly people like you to eat too much - it can easily lead to diabetes, a disease that may make you very painful."

As she spoke, Elena stretched out her hands to protect the two little snails left in front of her, turned her head, looked at the other two wizards pitifully, and said a little aggrievedly.

"Moreover, this is my Potions class work. According to Professor Snape, I should have tasted it all by myself. Right, Professor Snape, Professor Dumbledore?"

Helping with the performance is one thing, but pushing too far is a bit too much.

"Ahem, Mr. Otto. Leave the rest of the time to Professor Snape."

Dumbledore cleared his throat and glanced at Grindelwald - [That's about it, don't make a certain little dumpling angry. 】

After all, according to the two people's previous plan, they were actually trying to find a temporary caregiver for Elena, so that the pressure on both of them would be less.

There is no doubt that Snape, who is careful and can keep secrets, is undoubtedly one of the most suitable candidates.
