Chapter 70
When the duel was over, The Prefect Jones stood directly on the podium, looked at the people below with a stern face, and said, “Now that the duel is over, it’s time for us to discuss the sneak attack we just had!” ”
“We have said again and again before the duel that no one else can participate in the duel process! But I didn’t expect that some people would disobey and have the audacity to release black magic! This is very serious behavior! That black magic was able to easily break the magic barrier that several of us had jointly laid out, which was deadly enough! ”
“I will report this matter to the dean for handling, and when it is found out who did it, I will wait to be expelled!”
Derek in the crowd listened, and suddenly became nervous, deeply afraid of being found out that he had done it himself, and immediately lowered his head lower.
“No, I’m already here!” Snape’s mellow voice rang out directly in the common room. At the gate, Professor Snape lifted the illusion spell and appeared in front of everyone, looking like he had been here for a while.
As soon as Derek saw Snape, his face turned miserable, and he kept praying that the sneak attack he had just done would not be seen by him.
Under the awe of everyone, Snape automatically gave way from the students to the formed aisle and came to the competition stage, and with a wave of his wand, the wooden platform returned to a carpet. Then he looked at the students around him and said in a cold voice, “Since the duel is over, what is the pestle doing here?” ”
As soon as the students heard this, they scattered in a hurry, and Snape’s aura was not something that anyone could bear.
Snape looked at Derek, who also wanted to leave, and shouted in a cold voice, “Derek stays!” ”
Derek listened, turned his head to look at Snape’s horrified eyes, and suddenly stood in the same place with a miserable face, not caring about being stared at by the surprised eyes of everyone, he only thought about it now!
Snape turned to look at Peter, his expression softening, “You come to my office with Derek, let’s go.” ”
Peter looked at deranged Derek on the side, guessed something, and his eyes suddenly looked at him coldly, that black magic was able to persist for a long time under the protection of his super armor after breaking the magic barrier jointly arranged by several senior students, which was the idea of his own life!
Follow Snape out of the common room and into the office. Snape closed the door as soon as he entered the office, then looked directly at Derek coldly, “Do you know why I called you over?” ”
“I, I…” Derek stood restlessly, speechless, with a cold sweat on his face.
“You used a very serious black magic on your classmates!” Snape yelled at him furiously, “Did your brain get bitten by billy wegger worms?” Such black magic is strictly forbidden by the Ministry of Magic! And you actually use it on your own apprentice! If Peter York hadn’t reacted in time, there would have been a corpse lying on the ground! Do you want to be locked up in Azkaban for the rest of your life like your father? ”
Derek, in a fit of Snape’s rage, trembled and begged, “Professor Snape, please don’t put me in Azkaban, I was wrong!” I won’t dare anymore! ”
Peter sneered, “Derek, if an apology works, then what else would Oro do?” Isn’t it hard to kill someone and forgive just by saying sorry? ”
Derek said hatefully, “You’re fine, and I just wanted to interfere, I wanted you to lose, but I didn’t expect the magic item to be so powerful!” ”
Looking at Derek, who still didn’t know where he was wrong, Snape said disappointedly, “I’ll send a letter to your parents, and then you’ll decide for yourself whether you want to have a private affair with Mr. York or a public affair!” But I suggest you’d better ask Peter Yorke’s forgiveness and get him to drop the charges against you, or you’ll be expelled from school and even go to jail in Azkaban! ”
Snape said impatiently to him, “Go back and think about it, it’s best to use the owl to explain the situation to your family first, and come back tomorrow night.” ”
Derek opened his mouth to say something, but under Snape’s gaze, he couldn’t speak. Then he tried to intercede with Peter, but Peter regarded him as invisible and ignored him.
Derek left the office lonely, leaving peter and Snape alone.
Snape sat down in his chair, looked at Peter seriously, and said, “You should know that the pure-blood forces of the wizarding world are still powerful and have complicated relationships.” Even if today’s events are made public, Derek is not a big deal to be expelled from school, and they can find many ways to get away with it! So I hope you’ll wait tomorrow for Derek’s parents to come to school and take the opportunity to file a compensation claim in exchange for him not being expelled from school. ”
Peter still felt a little embarrassed, and said reluctantly, “Then that’s the matter of his use of black magic on me?” Compensating for a little thing is like nothing happens? ”
Snape looked at the boy in front of him and said solemnly, “As long as you raise your strength to the point where you are not afraid of others, you can stomp all of them on the soles of your feet!” Even make them subservient to you! But before you can do that, you need to accumulate strength silently, especially many things in these pure-blood wizard families, which are not available outside, and in exchange for these things, it is very beneficial to your growth! ”
Snape said to him with satisfaction, “The reward for your duel winning choice is the Magic Book, and that’s a good choice.” The real foundation of the pure-blood wizard family has never been the number of Golden Gallons, but the family magic accumulated over hundreds of years, and even many of them are not even available in the Hogwarts Library, so you can collect more of these magic books and slowly form your own foundation! ”
Peter knew that Professor Snape was being well-intentioned, so he nodded and said, “Then I’ll ask Derek tomorrow to use their family’s family magic or magic book alone in exchange for not being held accountable!” Allowed him to continue his studies at Hogwarts. ”
Seeing this student who knew it all, Snape flashed a smile in his eyes, such a talented, cautious, and sober-minded person, as long as he grows up, he may be able to match or even surpass Dumbledore! It had been a long time since Slytherin had a famous great magician. Of course, the notorious Dark Lord was not among them.
“Go back first, come back tomorrow afternoon, then you don’t talk, listen to my arrangement, these pure-blood wizards are not easy to deal with!” You have to be mentally prepared. Snape said.
Peter nodded obediently, and since Snape had indicated that he was going to be on his side, he was certainly willing to believe it, and he said gratefully, “Tomorrow I will trouble you Professor!” ”
Snape pretended to be impatient, “Hurry back, I don’t want to see you running around the castle during curfew time, if I catch you, you will know the consequences!” ”
Peter smiled and agreed, then left the office.
In the office, Snape’s originally relaxed expression became instantly cold, and his eyes were empty, and he said in the direction of the fireplace: “Dumbledore, how long have you been here?” I remember it was my office! ”
