Study Days at Hogwarts

  Chapter 1153 Snape's warning

   "Bang bang bang!"

  Late at night, on a quiet street, a figure in a black cloak stopped in front of an old house, raised his hand and knocked on the wooden door in front of him.

"who?"

   After about thirty seconds, there was a sound from behind the door, followed by a nervous voice.

"it's me!"

  The figure in the cloak spoke.

   "Severus?"

  The door of the room was opened a crack, and a woman looked out through the crack, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief after confirming the visitor.

   "I have something important to tell you and Draco." Snape said to the woman inside the door.

   "Come in first."

   Narcissa took a step back, letting Snape into the room.

  A similar scene happened not long ago, but it was the opposite.

   "Where's Draco?" Snape looked around and asked.

   "Draco is resting in the room." Narcissa whispered, "The burning of the manor has dealt him a great blow. Do you have anything to do with him?"

   "This matter has something to do with Draco, it's best to let him listen to it." Snape asked Narcissa to wake people up.

Probably because he heard voices coming from the hall, the door next to him was suddenly opened, and Draco Malfoy walked out with a pale face. He was slightly taken aback when he saw Snape. See each other here.

   "Did Bellatrix mention it to you?" Snape asked suddenly.

   "What was mentioned?"

   "Who might be the person who attacked Malfoy Manor." Snape moved his eyes to the confused Narcissa, raised his eyebrows slightly, "It seems that she hasn't had time to tell you the news."

   "Who actually attacked Malfoy Manor?" Draco grabbed Snape's arm and asked loudly.

   "Although there is no evidence, there is a high probability that Albert Anderson set the fire." Snape said calmly.

   "That **** Mudblood." Draco said through gritted teeth.

"Calm down, you are losing your mind." Snape looked at Draco with a ferocious face, and reminded blankly: "Anger can't solve the problem, it will only make the situation worse, and you don't have time to be angry , don’t forget the mission the Dark Lord gave you.”

   "I know..." Draco Malfoy forced himself to calm down, his eyes fixed on Snape, "It's definitely not because of this that you came here so late."

   "Yes, I hope you can revoke the bounty on Albert Anderson." Snape turned his head to Narcissa and said, "That's a pretty stupid approach."

   "This is impossible!" Draco blurted out directly.

   "Nothing is impossible," Snape said calmly.

To be honest, Snape is not good at persuading others, but Dumbledore hopes that he can persuade the Malfoy family to give up the bounty on Albert, and let him provide help and guidance to Draco Malfoy to prevent the other party from messing up. Come.

   So, here he is.

   "Why?" Malfoy suddenly asked, "Why would you..."

   "Now you don't even know who the enemy is." Snape interrupted bluntly, "I promised your mother would help you, but..."

"Mother."

  Draco Malfoy looked at his mother in disbelief.

  Narcissa met her son's gaze, and explained in a low voice, "Severus is more experienced in this area than you..."

   "Enough Mom, this is my job, what he gave me, I can do it myself..." Malfoy was interrupted again before he could finish speaking.

   "Draco, it's not that I don't want to believe you." Narcissa said sadly, "But we can't afford to fail again."

   Draco Malfoy was silent.

   "Why are you here?" A sudden voice broke the silence of the room.

  Bella stood outside the door, staring at Snape warily.

"has a problem?"

  Snape glanced at Bella, didn't pay attention to the other's words, turned to Draco and said, "Remember, the bounty for Albert Anderson must stop."

"Why?"

   "The fire was just a warning," Snape glanced at Bella with a sneer on his face, "otherwise do you really think you can escape from the devil's flame?"

   "Warning?" Narcissa looked at Snape uneasily.

"Yes, that's what I told Dumbledore when you were still alive." Snape recalled: "Dumbledore thought Anderson set the fire, so he hoped I could persuade you to give up on the fire." That guy's wanted for a reward."

   "So, you are here to carry out Dumbledore's order?"

   "Is this important?" Snape asked back: "You never seem to grasp the point."

   "Let Severus continue." Narcissa almost begged to stop Bella who was about to say something, "I believe there must be some important reason for Severus to come here."

   "Dumbledore didn't want Albert Anderson to go down because of murder," Snape said with a strong sarcasm in his tone.

   "What does this have to do with a bounty..." Draco was a little confused by Snape.

   "I have never been able to understand why you ignore the danger of that guy. Could it be that the so-called Mudblood's title has affected your normal judgment?"

   "It's ridiculous." Bella curled her lips in disdain, "I can kill him soon and get the Dark Lord's reward."

  Snape glanced contemptuously at Bellatrix from the corner of his eye. He felt that if he confronted Anderson with his poor brain, he would be killed by the opponent sooner or later.

"A long time ago, I reminded Lucius not to provoke that Anderson before he was sure." Snape sneered, "In the end, Lucius failed, and many people lost their lives because of it. "

   "How dare you..." Draco almost twisted his nose in anger.

   "You have never noticed that many of the people arrested by the Ministry of Magic were executed." Snape reminded with a deadpan expression.

   "You mean..." Narcissa seemed to realize something.

"It's true that Albert Anderson didn't kill himself, but he used the Ministry of Magic to kill those who tried to attack his wedding." Snape said blankly, "In the past two months, people have been tried almost every day." put to death."

   "Once he no longer has any worries, he won't even have a chance." Snape was also very afraid, because the fire that only burned Malfoy Manor but did not spread to the surroundings was the best evidence.

   "Remember, it is Bellatrix's mission to kill Albert Anderson, and you'd better not get involved in it." Snape warned coldly.

   "You think I'm going to fail." Bella seemed to realize something, pointing her wand at Snape in annoyance.

   "The probability is not high." Snape sneered, "That guy is a master prophecy, he can predict the future, and your so-called traps will be detected by him in advance, and you don't even know about it."

  "Once the plan fails, that guy will definitely kill a group of people, and the Malfoy family who offered a reward will definitely be on the list. No one will tolerate repeated provocations."

"So, concentrate on your own mission and don't get involved in this matter." Snape coldly interrupted what Malfoy was about to say, "You have to remember that I am your helper and backup, and if you miss, I will Let me take over this job, don't be ridiculous thinking that I want to take your credit, this is my job in the first place!"

   "Remember, the Dark Lord will spare Lucius as long as Dumbledore is dead."
