Chapter 184

Snape didn't die, as Potter saved him at the time.

Whatever James Potter thought at the time, it was a fact that he saved Snape's life and saved him from death. But it was a great shame for Snape, who thought that Snape would not have wanted Potter to save his life even if he had died there.

Dumbledore was not a fool, he knew better than anyone what was going on in Hogwarts, this was his territory, and nothing could really be hidden from him on his territory.

His opinion on the matter is unknown, but Black's actions have caused problems for himself and even left some indelible marks on Dumbledore's heart.

Blake's later so-called "mutiny", Solim estimated that Dumbledore himself at that time was not sure whether he had really defected. Although Blake did not receive any punishment for Snape, Dumbledore understood. What Blake did at school would sway Dumbledore's attitude and perception of him, so much so that Dumbledore would provide the Ministry of Magic with unfavorable testimony that Blake was Potter's secret keeper.

In fact, Solim is not sure whether Dumbledore knows that the secret is not Black, or whether he is pretending to be confused and taking this opportunity to teach Blake a lesson. This may have been a "belated justice" for Snape, though he was not imprisoned for attempted murder.

If Snape had died at the time, who would have been most affected?

Sad Lily?

Disappointed Dumbledore?

Potter and Blake who got some kind of punishment?

The answer is Lupin.

What will Lupin think when he regains his humanity and find out that he has killed a man in his werewolf form? What will he think about Blake, who plotted this plan? What will he think about the other two people who may have known about it? His most important friend has used him to kill others, even though this person has always been at odds with them.

Blake clearly didn't think about it, he didn't take into account Lupin's feelings.

But James thought about it, so he risked his life to save Snape.

But what did Dumbledore think at the time, why didn't Dumbledore do anything when a young wizard who had clearly shown a love for the dark arts and a mystical admirer came to him and asked him to do justice for him?

It was clear that Snape could have been saved at that time, and it was clear that Snape could have a clear relationship with those people at that time - as long as Dumbledore was willing to spend his time to help Snape, was willing to spend time correcting Snape's wrong ideas at that time, and was willing to spend energy to correct Snape's character, then Snape could have embarked on a different life trajectory.

Unfortunately, there was no if, Dumbledore had nothing at the time. He may or may not have noticed it at the time. But in any case, what kind of grievance would it have been for Snape?

You were bullied by other children outside, and you went home and told your father, but your father didn't ask whether it was right or wrong, and without saying a word, picking up a stick and beating you up, what would you think about you?

Grievances turn into anger, and anger ferments into resentment.

It wasn't surprising if Snape did follow the path of the Dark Wizard. And it was Dumbledore who was in charge.

Strong negative emotions are exactly what makes a dark wizard a sign of it.

Snape, however, was not a true Dark Wizard, although he was very proficient in the Dark Arts. Perhaps it was the deep love for Lily that prevented Snape's further depravity.

"So, what did you think at the time, Headmaster?" said Solim in a tone that didn't matter to him.

Dumbledore's face was expressionless, but the incendiary nose betrayed his unpeaceful heart.

What Dumbledore thought at the time, does it still matter, because no matter what, the fault has been forged, the fruit watered by resentment and hatred has grown, and it can never be returned.

But Solim had to figure out the question, was Dumbledore really negligent or had other intentions at the time? It may not be important to anyone else, at most others have changed their opinion of Dumbledore, but it is crucial to Solim.

What did Dumbledore think about the wizards or groups that were attached to him, and what measures would Dumbledore take to save those who might be saved, but who would have to spend a lot of time and energy, or even a great cost?

As a first-hand experiencer and experiencer, Solim's feeling is completely different from reading a book or watching a movie. Solim hadn't forgotten what had happened to Quirina Squiro, and now it was Snape's affair, and Solim had to figure out what these wizards who were in the dark but could be saved meant to Dumbledore.

Solim didn't want to be used as cannon fodder for no apparent reason. I don't want to be pulled by others when I can be pulled by someone, but others turn a blind eye, or I am directly kicked into a deep pit and buried tightly with soil.

This was not the outcome Solim wanted.

Even more seriously, Dumbledore's next words determined whether Solim's future actions would be to distance himself from Dumbledore's side, or to maintain some degree of contact with Dumbledore.

"It was complicated...... The situation was also chaotic. Dumbledore sighed, "Since you know so much about what happened, you know what kind of atmosphere it was like at Hogwarts at that time. "

At that time, Voldemort had already publicly used the name that everyone feared, and his Death Eaters came into the limelight and began to commit heinous crimes one after another. Due to Voldemort's loud slogans at the time, and the fact that most of his Death Eaters were pure-bloods, the young wizards in Hogwarts were very interested in these things, and they could even be said to be fanatical.

Gryffindor and Slytherin are the most prominent, and the two houses usually don't like each other, especially in that complex external situation. Slytherin can be said to be the reserve of the Death Eaters, many Slytherin students at that time ran to become Death Eaters as soon as they graduated, and some Gryffindor students joined the side against Voldemort as soon as they graduated, and both groups of people had their brains out outside the school. At that time, the school would receive news from outside the school from time to time that someone who had just graduated from Gryffindor had been killed by someone who had graduated from Slytherin, which further intensified the conflict between the students. But even so, the skirmishes in the castle at that time never stopped.

In this case, Snape, as a Slytherin, is also a well-known person who shows a love for the dark arts and a worship of Voldemort, such a "little Death Eater" came to sue Dumbledore, and the object of the complaint is still Gryffindor's group led by Potter, who has always shown opposition to Voldemort, and it is obvious who Dumbledore will favor. _
