Harry was taken aback by Dumbledore coming out of the fireplace, and he was full of thoughts about how much Dumbledore had heard—recalling just now, he was not sure that the headmaster could only hear the last sentence.

Snape, on the other hand, pushed Harry away resolutely. He looked at Dumbledore silently, and decided to speak.

Harry, who was pushed away, glanced at Snape and looked at Dumbledore pretending to be calm, "I can explain..." He spoke before Snape could speak.He couldn't let Snape be blamed alone, all his thoughts were shattered before, and now his mind was only filled with this one sentence.

"Come here together." Dumbledore's eyes shifted from Harry's face to Snape's, with deep meaning in his eyes, and then he turned and walked towards the fireplace.

Now it's just the two of them left.

"Severus." Harry looked at Snape, "I won't let anything happen to you." He tried to calm himself down, Occlumency was running wildly, and he quickly began to think about countermeasures.

"Let's go." Snape took his hand again and led the boy towards the fireplace.

"Sit down." Dumbledore got up and let the two people who came to the principal's room sit down. "Do you want lemon tea?"

"No." Harry shook his head.

He subconsciously looked at Snape, only to find that Snape was just looking at Dumbledore expressionlessly.

"Excuse me, why are you visiting me uninvited at this late hour?" Snape said after silently refusing the cup of tea.

He didn't mention what Dumbledore had just found out, as if that wasn't something to remember.

Dumbledore raised his eyebrows, and those blue eyes full of wisdom stared at Snape, just as the blue sky easily contained the insignificance of human beings, and no secret could escape these eyes.

"Actually, I saw you at the Hog's Head on Saturday. Severus, you and Mr. Potter, I thought I was wrong, but I trust my eyes, so I wondered if Mr. Potter There are really so many confinement, although you have been targeting him before, but at that time there was still some reason. But now——I have to pay attention to Mr. Potter's movements." Dumbledore said and he winked at Harry blink.

"I see." Snape nodded, he understood.

There was indeed such a risk in appearing in that form in Hogsmeade, and he had considered it.

Sure enough, he never had luck.

"Sir, I can explain." Harry interjected, his inner impulses overwhelming him, and he had to speak.

"I sent Professor Snape over, and I made him drink the age-reducing potion. We're not going on a date—we're stalking Malfoy!"

"Harry, you don't need to argue, I can understand." Dumbledore looked kindly at Harry who was trying to explain to Snape, his gaze soothed the restlessness in Harry's heart, and he even smiled, "After all You are still a child."

"And I have reason to believe that Severus didn't go to Hogsmeade to follow Mr. Malfoy, and I don't think this is the first time he's been with you in that way." He looked at Severus Nep, his eyes hardened.

"You have no proof," said Snape, "and I believe I have sufficient witnesses to show that I showed up at Hogsmeade weeks before that, without age-reducing potions or with Potter."

"Well, the development of your relationship is not too long." Dumbledore took out a lemon sherbet from his pocket, he opened the package and took a bite, "This is good news, you are not mad enough to treat a Children under 16 years old."

"But even if Mr. Porter is 16 years old, he is still a student without normal judgment ability, and you are an adult, especially his professor. You have the responsibility to teach him and let him go on the right path instead of what he is now. It's unethical." There was harshness in his voice and eyes.

"No, Headmaster Dumbledore. It wasn't Snape, it was me! I forced him!" Harry retorted loudly, continuing as Dumbledore looked at him in surprise.

"In order to get revenge on Snape, you know I don't have a good relationship with him, so I can't really fall in love with him, so I drugged him." As calm as Harry's face was, his palm felt How sweaty.

He didn't lie, "It was out of revenge, but I—after Professor Snape took the potion, I also knew that these were potion effects, I just couldn't control my feelings—so It's not his fault, it's all my fault."

"He has been a professor of Potions for 15 years, and he is also a master of Potions with a remarkable reputation." Dumbledore said, "I know your heart to defend Severus, but you are still underage, and your thoughts are easy Being tempted, it makes you lack judgment - and Severus, as an adult, you allow Mr Potter's wrong behavior, and you induce him to make mistakes." Dumbledore said as he looked at Snape, the voice turned from soft to as if the sword was aimed at Snape.

"I am very disappointed in you."

"If that's what you want to say, then I admit it." Snape finally said, "I do have something wrong with Harry Potter."

"I clearly know what I think, and this boy's childish behavior, I condone it." He was expressionless as if he was talking about something that had nothing to do with him.

"It seems that this is the truth, and I did not misunderstand the behavior between you." Dumbledore nodded, "Since it has happened, thinking about it, I thought your position had changed, after all, you have changed since the beginning of school." ——This kind of change is very subtle, and only people who have been with you day and night can distinguish—I think Minerva may have noticed it too, but the Death Eaters will definitely not notice it, because they don’t know you. The things around you The atmosphere has softened a little, as if dead trees have sprouted after many years." Dumbledore said, he took a bite of the lemon sherbet in his hand, "Now I have found the reason."

"Although I hope that you and Mr. Potter can ease up, I don't want to see this kind of relaxation." He sighed again, as if he was also thinking about how to solve the matter in front of him.

"I don't want anything that touches the bottom line of morality to happen in the school during my tenure as headmaster. As a professor, you are more responsible to maintain the purity of Hogwarts." He looked at Snape disappointedly.

"It's late," was all Snape replied.

Dumbledore suddenly looked at Harry, his eyes were filled with anxiety, as if he was about to touch a flower that hadn't grown yet but would wither if touched.

"He didn't touch you, did he?—how far have you gotten?" It seemed that Dumbledore realized that Harry was too old to know anything about biology, and that he had had girlfriends before.

Students at this age are always full of curiosity about unknown things, especially in terms of sexual desire and impulsiveness-often doing things that make them regret for life without thinking about them.

Suddenly, a young man with blond hair popped up in his mind. He was also 16 years old at the time, a flamboyant and irresponsible age.

Dumbledore took a bite of Lemon Olaf irritably, even sweets could not save his bitter heart after thinking of Grindelwald.

Harry couldn't answer, didn't know whether to lie or admit it-his character couldn't allow him to deceive the old headmaster, after all, he did stand by his side to think.But he couldn't let Snape take the blame.

"I said I forced Professor Snape, I forced him." He stood up, his face flushed, and then he glanced at Snape sitting next to him, and his habitual shock cracked. Some are silent, which is really rare.

"I'm sorry, I was too impulsive that night, and I also used aging agents. Yes, I forced Professor Snape, and I ran away after committing this thing-he is the victim." He As he spoke, he seemed to gain the courage to look directly at Dumbledore.

Dumbledore, too, seemed taken aback by this development, took off his glasses to wipe them, and picked up his old, restless heart at the same time.

"Oh, even if you forced Severus, he made mistakes, he's an adult, and it's his duty to teach you the right thing to do - promise me, Harry. Even if you have a crush on someone, don't Trying to force, it's not a good behavior, although now it seems that you have a good relationship, the result is not bad - but most of the time it will not lead to good results, I hope you don't leave a mistake for this concept of..."

"Albus, you don't really believe Potter's nonsense, do you?" Snape couldn't help interrupting the headmaster's erroneous thoughts after being frightened and trying to correct Harry's erroneous thoughts.

"I can understand your agitation, Severus." Dumbledore put on a gesture he could understand, and his previous sternness was restrained a lot because of Harry's truth-telling statement. He looked at Snape gently It's as if he's suffered in some way, and now he's able to forgive Harry and accept him, which is really comforting despite the complications of their teacher-student relationship.

"Then let's get back to the relationship between you - since it is a fact now, we need to discuss solutions and how to reduce the impact." Dumbledore stroked his white beard worriedly.

He breathed a sigh of relief when Harry sat down, his clothes wet with cold sweat sticking to his back, he let out a breath, the corners of his mouth turned up in contentment and gratitude, and at the same time he received Snape's stare beside him.

But Harry just felt so relieved, he took all the responsibility on him, and suffered unwarranted accusations of being a rapist-but it seemed to be good to take advantage of it.What a wit he is!

"Do you have any plans for the future? Harry, you are graduating. How do you plan to deal with the relationship between you and Severus after you leave Hogwarts?" Dumbledore asked, looking at the two personal.

"We'll get married," said Snape, frowning.

"Married?" Harry looked at Snape in surprise, as if he hadn't expected to hear the word from him.

"Don't you ever think about getting married?" Snape stared at the little bastard, his black eyes burning like fire.

"I—well, I didn't think about getting married so early. But thinking about it, it's not bad, hahaha." Harry laughed dryly, and he scratched his hair.

He really didn't think about the future, after all, he only thought about how to eliminate the Death Eaters now, maybe he wouldn't live to graduate at all.

"Oh, Severus, thank you for your hard work." Dumbledore looked at Snape sympathetically. He really couldn't admit that Harry had suffered. It was obvious that the poor man who suffered was the loyal one who might have worked hard. Subordinates who abide by their duties.

-----------------------

Dumbledore looked at Snape reassuringly: Thank you for your hard work, I can't think of it - if Harry goes too far, you don't always have to endure it.Young people are indeed full of energy.

Snape looked at Old Deng with contempt: Don't think I don't know what you mean.

Old Deng said earnestly: Although Harry is a good boy, you can't indulge him too much, the older one is really easy to suffer.

Snape stared at Old Deng patiently: You think too much (decided to go back and educate some nonsense little bastard)
