Chapter 140
After Mr. "Anthony" disappeared, nothing appeared in the second room.
Karan silently stared at the ground under his feet and walked into the second room first.
After a while, Snape followed in hesitantly.
It's just an empty room with nothing in it.
It seems that that special Boggart is all there is to it.
But the two were silent for a long time, and no one spoke.
Dark green flames shone on their faces.
One seems extremely complicated and uncertain.
The other was just calm.
"I really didn't expect..."
It seemed like he couldn't stand the dead silence any longer, or maybe he simply wanted to say something.
Snape stared at Karan with complicated eyes. He slowly shook his head and repeated again: "I really didn't expect it."
Karan raised an eyebrow.
"What didn't you expect?" he asked.
Snape opened his mouth, and finally said: "The matter of Antony Court."
"I didn't expect that your deepest fear was Mr. Anthony, and he...actually gave you such a last wish."
"It's really..."
Snape's face was tangled, and he kept shaking his head.
"It's so weird," he said.
"There's nothing surprising." Karan's tone was still calm, as if he had experienced nothing just now, and said nonchalantly: "He knows me, so he finally made a request to me, in a way that he couldn't let me Make a condition of rejection.”
"By his own death."
"And there is... such a trace of guilt in my heart."
Karan's tone was terrifyingly calm, but it made Snape feel a little chilled inexplicably.
"This is not a request at all, this is a threat."
"A threat with his life, with his soul."
"Perhaps, this also includes my soul."
Karan shook his head.
"So I'm stuck, even after his death."
"He made me an offer I couldn't refuse," Karan repeated.
"After he said all his last wishes, he died."
"It's so precise that it's like timing it in advance, not a second is wasted."
When he said this, Karan's expression and cheeks twitched slightly, as if he wanted to express anger.
In the end, he did not choose to endure it anymore, but directly cursed in a low voice.
"Damn Anthony!"
For some reason, after seeing Callan's appearance, Snape suddenly felt much more at ease.
It at least made him look like a human being.
A less stone-hearted person.
"Your relationship is really good." Snape said suddenly: "Mr. Anthony seems to trust you very much, and you have lived up to his trust in you."
Karan remained silent and did not speak.
After a while, he suddenly laughed softly.
"That's true." He nodded: "I had a pretty good life at Anthony's Court, especially when Mr. Anthony was still alive."
"At least, it's much better than what you had."
He slowly turned his head, looked at Snape with his eyes, and called him mockingly.
"poor guy."
The expression on Snape's face seemed to freeze for a moment, and he immediately whispered angrily: "Don't call me that!"
"Why not?" Karan said matter-of-factly: "I saw clearly just now that when you pointed the wand at me, you really planned to do something."
"Don't think I don't see that."
"Trash, and poor people."
Snape's cheeks twitched, and his expression became particularly angry and annoyed.
But in the end, he just snorted coldly.
"It's not Lily."
This seems to be all his reasons and explanations.
"Is that all?" Karan raised his eyebrows and asked, "Aren't you curious about how many things in that 'Lily' mouth are true?"
Snape frowned and stared at Callan.
"How many?" he asked bluntly.
"About me..." Karan said slowly.
"That's all."
Snape froze.
"Have you ever thought about killing us?" he asked with wide eyes.
"Maybe." Karan said casually.
"Kill me, and Lily?" Snape couldn't help but frown, and he looked up and down at Karan.
"That also includes thinking of me as a..."
Snape's words suddenly paused, he pursed his lips, and finally changed his question.
"You never cared about us?"
"Ha." Karan chuckled: "I thought you should have known this a long time ago. Especially after seeing my Boggart."
"Mr. Anthony and I didn't get along very happily in the end."
Snape said nothing. He stared at Karan silently, his frown getting deeper and deeper.
"And that's not all."
Karan suddenly became talkative, and he said frankly: "Including planning to threaten you with black magic, I never trust you, I am just using you, and all of this is just my whim. It’s just something to do.”
"By the way, there's Penny too."
Finally, as if he had thought of something, he added: "I did throw away the gift she gave me."
"After I separated from you that day, when I first returned to Anthony Courtyard, I threw the gift directly into the trash can."
"Tsk, tsk, tsk."
He shook his head with a look of disgust on his face: "That's really ugly. I really can't imagine that I walked all the way with that piece of garbage."
"Even in a dirty place like Spider End Lane, this is not the dignity a gentleman should have."
At this moment, Snape finally spoke.
"Do you think I would care about this kind of thing?"
He frowned and asked, "Do you think I will care about Penny's gift?"
Before Karan could say anything, Snape continued: "Although she is Lily's sister, I have never liked her."
"If it were me, I would even throw away her gift on the way and never wait until I get home."
"She's just a muggle who doesn't know anything."
Snape said sarcastically, and he also specifically quoted what Callan said to Mr. "Anthony".
[You're just a Muggle who doesn't understand anything. 】
Karan couldn't help but laugh.
Snape snorted coldly. He stared at Karan and suddenly asked in a low voice: "Did you really throw away Petunia's gift?"
Karan just smiled and said nothing.
Snape pursed his lips, hesitantly raised a fist and handed it to Kahlan.
That look was exactly the same as what James and Sirius usually looked like.
Karan raised an eyebrow.
He didn't think for long before he clenched his fist and touched Snape lightly.
Snape's throat rolled hard.
After being silent for a while, he said in a complicated tone: "You should be sorted into Slytherin."
Karan shook his head.
"I don't want to be assigned to a rubbish..."
He suddenly paused and looked around suspiciously. Fortunately, there was no abnormality inside the giant snake.
But until the end, he didn't say the word "trash can" completely.
"Hufflepuff is great."
He changed his tone and said: "At least I still like some of Ms. Hufflepuff's ideas."
"Ah!"
After witnessing this completely, Snape laughed contemptuously.
