Chapter 682 The Last Horcrux

Snape walked out of the principal's office alone and appeared in the corridor on the eighth floor of the castle. No one shouted at him, but no one made any noise.

Just a few minutes ago, everyone thought Snape was a murderer and wanted to kill him with a thousand knives; but now everyone knew the inside story and knew that they had misunderstood Snape.

With the sudden change of roles, from traitor to undercover hero, everyone didn't know how to face Snape for a moment, and then there was a somewhat embarrassing silence.

Ada glanced at the people in the corridor. She knew that everyone needed time to adapt, so she took the lead in speaking to break the silence.

"Professor Snape, have you made everything clear?" Ada asked.

In addition to being the undercover agent placed by Dumbledore next to Voldemort, Snape also shouldered another important task. He wanted to tell Harry the whereabouts of the last Horcrux.

This matter is related to whether Voldemort can be completely killed, and it is also related to Harry's life and death.

Snape pursed his lips tightly, shook his head first, and then nodded.

This riddle-like body language makes people confused. Is it made clear or not? Anyway, Ada didn't understand it at all.

Thinking about it, Harry has to make his own choice between life and death, which is not an easy task. Once you make up your mind and make your own choice, there is no turning back.

"What happened?" Sirius asked alertly, "You took Harry into the office alone and what did you say to him?"

It's not that he doesn't trust Snape, on the contrary, Sirius is the one who can empathize the most with everyone present. Because he once suffered from infamy and was criticized by thousands of people. The reason why I asked this was entirely because the matter involved Harry, so Sirius couldn't help but worry.

Don't say good things to others, and never say good things to others. Although this old saying does not mean this, it is surprisingly appropriate here.

Sirius was worried: Snape took Harry to have a private conversation in order to let Harry complete some extremely dangerous task.

"You don't need to know." Snape raised his eyelids and glanced at Sirius. He still had half a sentence left to say: Even if he knew, what could he do? He would still be powerless.

The fact that Harry is Voldemort's Horcrux was Dumbledore's last arrangement before his death. He could not tell anyone except Harry, but only him.

If Ada hadn't been able to replace Dumbledore and continue to play chess, if Ada hadn't guessed that Harry was also a Horcrux - Snape would have hidden it from her.

The cruel facts, the cold truth, must be faced by Harry alone. Because Harry is the child in the prophecy, because Voldemort chose him, chose to turn a baby who had just turned one year old into a savior.

"I am Harry's godfather, why can't I know?" Sirius emphasized, "I want to take good care of him for James and Lily..."

Snape let out a harsh sneer, interrupting Sirius with loud laughter.

He said disdainfully: "Godfather? Care? I just found out today that being locked up in Azkaban is also a kind of care! Also, if Potter lives with you, he will only be more stupid, arrogant, and arrogant. 's father."

Familiar place, familiar people, Snape and Sirius were at odds again after many years.

"The snot guy who doesn't wash his hair..."

"Arrogant, stupid, self-righteous..."

Fortunately, Ada got rid of Snape, and Lupine also hugged Sirius. Otherwise, the two of them would not just greet each other with words, but should roll into a ball and give each other the best greetings with fists. wishes.

"Shut up, both of you!"

Professor McGonagall shouted loudly, her body trembling slightly, as if she was angry with these two people, but also because she was emotionally excited.

When Snape and the Marauders were still studying at Hogwarts, Minerva McGonagall was already the school's Transfiguration Professor, so her words were still very powerful. Snape and Sirius closed their mouths at the same time.

Although he kept his mouth shut, Sirius still expressed his dissatisfaction with Snotlout with a roll of his eyes.

But Snape was even more outrageous. He turned his head away from Sirius, and even gave him a "too lazy to pay attention to you" look before turning his head.

When it comes to pranks and sabotage, even ten Snapes are no match for Sirius. But when it comes to the ability to make people angry, Sirius can't match Snape's ability to flatter people.

The disdainful look and the movement of turning his head deeply hurt Sirius' "fragile" heart.

Sirius, who was furious again, wanted to speak again, but just as he opened his mouth, and before he even had time to spit out a syllable, Professor McGonagall's majestic eyes fell on him.

Sirius pursed his lips in grievance, and shrank behind Lupine like a bullied dog.

Professor McGonagall turned her head and said softly to Snape: "Welcome...welcome back, Professor Snape."

This sentence seemed to exhaust all the strength of Professor McGonagall. She exhaled a long breath, and her shoulders collapsed.

Snape wanted to say something, but found that he really couldn't think of the right words, and in the end he just nodded heavily with his mouth open.

Suddenly, dense explosions rang out in my ears, followed by a burst of frightened screams. Without having time to think about it, everyone hurriedly ran through the corridor, crowded in front of a window and looked out.

I saw colorful magic spells falling like a downpour, hitting the magic barrier covering the school one after another. The huge force exploded one by one, and the terrifying impact caused the magic barrier to shake continuously.

The attack of the Death Eater coalition has begun again!

"Now, please return to your respective positions. Protect yourself and everyone around you." Ada said in a deep voice.

Mr. Weasley and Kingsley were the first to run down the stairs. They had to return to the playground as soon as possible to organize defense work, where the Death Eaters would be the first to attack.

Professor McGonagall and others followed closely behind and hurriedly returned to their assigned positions. The tall tower has a wide view, making it easy to observe the situation and provide spellcasting support.

The last one was Sirius. He glanced at Snape awkwardly, and then reluctantly left with Lupine.

In fact, Sirius really wanted to see Harry walk out of the principal's office and confirm with his own eyes that there was nothing abnormal about his godson. But the Death Eaters had already launched an attack, and he needed to return to his position and complete the tasks assigned to him.

Snape also left after Sirius. Although he was not assigned any defensive tasks beforehand, he assigned himself the task of finding Nagini.

The barrier protecting the school cannot stop Voldemort. Sooner or later, the Death Eater coalition will attack. When the time comes, the two sides will be in close combat, and a melee is inevitable.

What Snape wants is this chaos. The more chaotic the battle situation is, the more Voldemort's energy will be involved, and the more opportunities there will be to kill Nagini.

The explosions of magic spells continued to ring in the ears, and now only Ada was left in front of the window, which was crowded just now. Ada was waiting for Harry, and even more so, for his choice.

As the prophesied child and Voldemort's Horcrux, Harry's choice will affect the final direction of the war.
