[HP] Don't talk to me

"No, I don't agree!" Snape stood up abruptly and patted the table in front of him.There was a dull sigh from the hard wood, and the dark brown paint was not as dark as Snape's face.

Dumbledore lifted the rim of his glasses unhurriedly and shrugged.

"Severus, why don't you agree?"

"What this kid needs is to drop out of school, and she's behaving so badly that I really don't see any hope of educating her well."

"Severus, Ta Effa is a freshman who has only been enrolled for two months, and he has not committed any serious violations of school rules and must be expelled."

"Albus, we don't seem to have the same tolerance for wrongdoing." Snape frowned tightly, and said sharply, "Maybe one day she will draw you a...a picture in the confinement room, You can feel it."

Damn little girl, not only scribbling, but I don't know what kind of material is mixed in the ink of the drawing, and no amount of erasing spell can remove those terrible lines.Snape even desperately planned to destroy that wall, but he didn't expect that the confinement room had already been protected by various ancient spells, and no spell could destroy the structure of the room.

"Kota Efa said that she didn't draw people from a certain school. She just didn't understand the punishment rules of confinement and couldn't help scribbling. She has apologized for this. But she said that this kind of ink costs 20 It will take about a year to dissipate, I think it would be a good idea to install a bookshelf on that wall to cover it." Dumbledore said slowly.

Can she believe anything she says?Snape secretly sighed, after all, he is also a person who has been in contact with Death Eaters, and he has a deep understanding of the vagaries of people's hearts in this world.In his opinion, this girl named Ta Efa is not as immature as her appearance.Dumbledore, who was always shrewd and capable, couldn't fail to see that he really didn't understand why Dumbledore was protecting this girl by being so obviously pretending to be blind and deliberately taking sides.

There are very few people who can be treated specially by Dumbledore. Could it be... Countless pictures flashed through Snape's mind, each of which was once his deepest memory, and he felt a chill in his heart.

Is there any connection between this girl and that child?

That kid, he's still years away from entering school...he's counting the days, he knows it.

"Severus," Dumbledore's call brought Snape back from his thoughts, "I think we should all be a little more lenient, after all, everyone can make mistakes, some of them may even be big mistakes-but knowing mistakes can It’s a good thing to change.”

Snape twitched the corner of his mouth as he read out Dumbledore's voice.

The matter about Ta Effa came to an end, and Snape originally planned to fire her, but had to succumb in front of Dumbledore.

Dumbledore seemed to have a private conversation with Ta Effa. Although the content was unknown, the professors obviously felt that Ta Effa had been quiet for a while.She no longer had special performances in class, which quickly made her overwhelmed by Ravenclaw's bright minds.

However, it was quiet and obedient to other professors.

Snape began to find that in his personal time outside of the classroom, his private cellar had unexpected visitors.

That discovery started with a bottle of Veritaserum dumped on the large flat table in the operations room.Snape still couldn't remember when he had missed the operation, nor did he remember the recent behavior of using Veritaserum.Therefore, the potion should obviously be in the storage room, not dripping everywhere on the table in another room.

Moreover, isn't such an obvious action just to show that he has come?

Snape decided to take a chance and catch the saboteur.

The opportunity came without effort.About three days later, one afternoon when there was no class, Snape pretended to leave the cellar, then turned back quietly, and cast a Disillusionment Charm on himself.

It was almost dinner time, just when Snape felt that he was going to get nothing today, the door was pushed open.

The visitor was none other than Ta Effa.

After entering the door, Ta Effa looked around the classroom first.At the moment, no one stays here.Snape's cellar has always been like this - the lack of light, coupled with the mixed atmosphere of potion ingredients, makes people feel very depressing, not to mention that behind this environment, there is a man who is more gloomy than the environment. .

She walked around the bookshelves against the wall in the classroom, which were full of old textbooks and potion bottles, items and notes left by students.She looked at it carefully, bending down to look at the rows next to each other, as if she was in a library.Then, she shrugged, as if nothing really attracted her.She straightened up, shook her head, and danced the long hair hanging around her waist, like a bright color dotted the gray-black room.

"Professor, don't hide there, I know you used the Disillusionment Charm."

Snape's heart sank.

He was sitting on the podium, and had been observing her very carefully since she came in. He didn't know how she found him, after all, he didn't feel her eyes lingering on the podium too much.

Tal Effah laughed softly, and Snape rose, suspiciously, to reveal himself.

"How do you know I'm here?"

"Because...so, I won't tell you." Ta Effa stuck out his tongue.

"So," Snape frowned, not wanting to pester him any further, and changed the subject, "Why are you here again? Tal Effah?"

"You finally remember my name, Professor Snape," said Ta Effa, "I have nothing to explain here, I just came back to find something I left behind in class."

Snape twitched the corner of his mouth, of course he didn't believe the girl's words. "Oh, good reason. Did you find it?"

"No, I don't know where to put it, maybe I should go to another place to look."

"Perhaps..." Snape took a few steps closer, looking down at the girl with bright eyes in front of him, "The thing you lost was a large bottle of Veritaserum?"

"What is Veritaserum?" Ta Effa shook his head and said, "I don't seem to have learned this thing before. Is it a potion?"

Snape took a deep breath. He really had no evidence to prove that Tal Effah was directly related to the bottle of Veritaserum that was moved and wasted. The kid continued to play dumb, and there was nothing he could do.

The two fell into a soundless silence.Then, Snape let out a long sigh, waved his hand and said, "Okay, I can't find anything, you should go too, go back to your Ravenclaw, and wait for dinner." He knew that he and a dissatisfied It doesn't make any sense for a 12-year-old to be serious.

Keta Effa didn't move, she stared at Snape and said softly, "Professor, I want to ask you something."

"what?"

"Go to the principal again and ask him to expel me, okay?" The girl paused every word, and said a surprising sentence.
