Ever since Severus inherited Prince Manor, Anita and Severus could not wait to stay in the potions laboratory and library of Prince Manor every day.But because Severus was usually very busy, he might not be able to spare time even on weekends, and Anita couldn't leave school casually, so they didn't have much chance to go to Prince Manor before the summer vacation.

Fortunately, Severus had already opened the Floo network between Prince Manor and No. 19 Spider's End Lane, so he didn't need to suffer the crime of the Portkey when he went to Prince Manor during the summer vacation.

Yes, although Anita and Severus liked Prince Manor very much, the two of them decided to live in the old house at 19 Spider's End Lane.Anita and Severus agreed that Prince Manor could be anywhere, but it felt more like a fully functioning potions laboratory than a home.Only the small old brick house at 19 Spider's End felt like home to them.

As exam week approached, the atmosphere at Hogwarts became tense, seats in the library began to be hard to come by, and the lights in the common room barely went out.However, the good mood of the Slytherin students was not affected by the approach of the final exam, because Slytherin's house score was far ahead, and this year's house cup belonged to Slytherin house without a doubt.

Exams were never a problem for top students, and Anita and Draco made it through exam week with ease.There is still a week between the exam week and the final banquet for the professors to correct the exam papers, but for most students, finishing the last exam means that the semester is over and they can start to spend time.

On the second day after the exam, Anita woke up very late. When she came to the Great Hall for dinner, she found that almost everyone was talking about Harry Potter and his friends who heroically protected the depository in Hoag. The story of Woz's Philosopher's Stone, and even the details of their breakthrough have been recited repeatedly by everyone with relish.

Anita raised her eyebrows with great interest. It must have been Dumbledore's acquiescence that this matter could spread so quickly.However, Anita wants to know how Dumbledore completed the savior training plan of "Warrior Pushing the Devil" in the absence of "The Devil". Could it be that a certain professor played Voldemort?It's not impossible. If a professor wants to pretend to be Voldemort, Harry, as a first-year wizard, will never recognize him. Anita can think of more than a dozen ways to pretend to be Voldemort without being spotted by Harry.But which professor?According to Dumbledore's evil taste, it is very likely to be Severus, after all, Severus' dislike of Harry can definitely be played in his true colors.

Thinking of this, Anita hurriedly greeted Draco, and went to Severus' office to inquire about inside information before even finishing lunch.

"Why are you here?" Severus looked up at Anita, then lowered his head to approve the test paper.

"Hasn't Dad had lunch yet? It happens that I'm not full either, so let's eat together. The papers will be approved after lunch. Anyway, there's only one week left, so there's no rush."

Anita knew that if she bothered Dad with such a silly question while he was working, Dad would never answer and would just throw her out.So Anita graciously helped Dad put away all the test papers and clear the table.

Severus squinted his eyes as he watched Anita lay there doing nothing to court him. He probably already guessed why Anita came here.But Severus didn't stop Anita, instead he snapped his fingers to summon a house elf, ordered lunch for two, and enjoyed it leisurely.

"Dad, do you know how Professor Dumbledore conjured up a 'Dark Lord' for Harry to defeat? Which professor played it?" Anita looked at Severus with blinking eyes, bright eyes It expresses the meaning of watching a good show "is it played by Dad".

Severus said angrily, "Didn't I tell you not to get involved in this matter?"

"I didn't participate. Anyway, now that this matter is over, I'm just curious." Anita said coquettishly, "Dad told me, and I will help Dad approve the test papers."

"Nobody was playing the Dark Lord. Just a Boggart and some interesting spells," Severus said.

"Boring." Anita muttered, "A weak creature like a Boggart is easy to see through, if it's played by Dad, the effect will be..." Under Severus' terrifying eyes, Anita swallowed decisively The second half of the sentence.

After lunch, just as Anita was about to say goodbye, she was stuffed with a thick stack of exam papers, except for the first grade and sixth and seventh grade papers, Severus gave Anita all the remaining papers.

If you don't die, you won't die, the other students are doing nothing, and Anita has to work hard to grade the papers in Severus' office.Severus was sitting leisurely on the sofa drinking tea while reading the potion book brought out from Prince Manor.

It wasn't until the end-of-term dinner that Anita had just finished grading the papers.It has to be said that some students' writing papers are simply horrible, and Anita has to work hard to find a few extra points. However, the pass rate of potions class this year has been significantly improved because of Anita.

After knowing their potion results, the little animals at Hogwarts all speculated in disbelief on the reason why Professor Snape suddenly gave them such generous points. Among them, the most supported theory was that Professor Snape was in a relationship. .

What?Is it impossible for the cold Slytherin Snake King to fall in love?

Professor Snape even has a daughter, so why is it so strange to have a girlfriend.

During the summer vacation, Anita could always receive strange letters from her Slytherin classmates. The style of painting was like this: "818 or [-] things that the stepmother and stepdaughter of a certain family have to say in [-]", "The grievances of a wealthy family Dad's illegitimate son who is just a face", "On how to win the family inheritance from the sinister and cunning half-brother" and so on.The dazed Anita learned of the students' strange ideas after Draco's popular science, and at the same time secretly decided that the next time she had a chance to approve the papers, she must severely deduct points.

After grading the papers, Anita hurried into the auditorium, and found that the decoration of the auditorium had changed, green and silver were everywhere, and the flag with the Slytherin emblem was hung high above the auditorium.Every student at the long table in Slytherin was in high spirits, and they had obviously started to celebrate ahead of time that they had won the House Cup for seven consecutive years. Slytherin led the No. Ryffindor is even lower than Slytherin by a full 2 points.

However, at the last moment, because Harry and his friends guarded the Sorcerer's Stone, Dumbledore added 170 points to Gryffindor College, and Gryffindor instantly became No.1.When the decoration of the Great Hall was replaced with the red and gold of Gryffindor, with the deafening cheers of Gryffindor, the proud Slytherin became dejected. Les's face was also ugly.

It's not fair!Anita thought that, and shouted that, but her voice was drowned out in the cheers of Gryffindor, and even Draco, who was sitting next to her, couldn't hear it.

When I was watching a movie in my previous life, I saw Gryffindor counterattack at the last moment, defeated the hateful Slytherin, won the Academy Cup, and justice defeated evil. It was very good and refreshing.

But when Anita became a member of Slytherin, she knew how hard every Slytherin student made for the honor of the house, and she also deeply felt the love of all Slytherins for their house And pride, and all of these were wiped out by Dumbledore's few generous extra points.

This is really unfair, and it also dampens the enthusiasm of the students. If the efforts of everyone in the entire academy in a semester can't compare with the extra points from the principal, what is the need for the Academy Cup to be awarded directly to Harry Potter every year? Just fine.

"Sonorus!" Anita took out her wand and cast an amplifying spell on her throat.

"What are you going to do? Don't be impulsive." Draco frowned and pulled Anita's sleeve.

Anita shook her head at Draco and yelled at the crowd, "Wait, that's not fair!"

The loud voice drowned out the cheers of Gryffindor, everyone stopped and looked at Anita in surprise, and the Slytherin students also looked at Anita in shock.At Hogwarts, there were not many students who dared to question the professor, and the prestige of Headmaster Dumbledore had always been extremely high, let alone anyone who questioned him.

The jubilant auditorium fell silent, and the atmosphere instantly became tense.Under hundreds of disapproving gazes, Anita gripped her wand tightly and opened her mouth, trying to deliver a good argument to prove how inappropriate Dumbledore's actions were.But Anita's mind suddenly went blank, and the righteous indignation and impulse that supported her to stand up just now seemed to be exhausted when she shouted that sentence.

Just when Anita was a little overwhelmed, she felt her hand being held by another warm hand.Anita looked back in astonishment and saw Draco standing up too. Instead of looking at Anita, he calmly and firmly said to everyone in the auditorium, "It's not fair."

Draco didn't use the Amplifying Charm, but in the silence, Draco's eloquent words reached every student's ears very clearly.

"It's not fair."

"It's not fair."

……

The Slytherins rose to their feet, each saying the words calmly and firmly.

Anita felt that she was reinfused with strength, not impulsiveness, nor anger, but the unity, honor and pride of all the students in Slytherin.Anita looked into Dumbledore's piercing eyes, and this time she didn't flinch, but said word for word: "It's not fair. I don't deny that the actions of Harry Potter and his friends deserve rewards. However, 170 Is the score too high? All the more than 100 students in Slytherin have accumulated 472 points in one year. Not only Slytherin, but which colleges of Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff don’t accumulate one or two points every day? House points. If the headmaster can easily reverse the ranking, then what is the point of everyone's efforts? What is the point of the existence of the House Cup? This is not only unfair to Slytherin House, but also to all the other three houses. The unfairness of the students who worked hard for the Academy Cup."

Anita's words said that both Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff were drawn to the position of Slytherin.Originally, these two houses were happy for Gryffindor. After all, Slytherin had won the House Cup for seven consecutive years. They didn't want to see Slytherin's arrogant face at all. Slap Slytherin house in the face, no matter which one, they are happy.However, Anita's words reminded the Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff students of all the efforts they had made for the house points, and it turned out that Gryffindor, who was the last one, surpassed them so effortlessly. Very unfair.The students of Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff also looked at Dumbledore with more or less doubts in their eyes.

After a brief silence, Dumbledore said slowly, "The rewards for Harry Potter and the others are reasonable. They have done a remarkable thing. Protecting the Philosopher's Stone from intruders requires a great deal of effort." Wisdom and courage, this is something that many adult wizards can't do. Therefore, they are fully qualified to win the Academy Cup."

The Slytherin students looked at each other, and several junior wizards were already sobbing softly.But what can be done?They could protest, but it was Dumbledore who ultimately ruled.This was an unfair competition.

It's just that I'm still unwilling.

The Gryffindor students cheered again.
