Chapter 180 Halloween
"That's all in the past, Severus."
Lupine continued to speak, but upon hearing this, Snape shook his head and said:
"I don't want Po Te to leave with a wrong idea about his father." He said, a horrible smile contorting his face, "Let me correct you, Po Te, your saintly father and his My friend made a very funny joke to me. If your father hadn't chickened out at the last moment, I would have died. Nothing he did could be called brave. He saved himself and me. If If their joke is over, Hogwarts will expel him."
Harry stood there blankly, as if he had lost his perception of the external environment because of the great impact.
Lupine's expression also darkened.
Snape smiled wider.
He studied the expressions of the two people for a while, then snorted coldly and said:
"let's go!"
After saying that, he walked out.
Just before leaving the office, John glanced back at Lupine.
Snape called the accident a 'joke'.
This is obviously Snape's satire on Lupine and Harry.
Because according to Snape, it should be considered a murder.
It is precisely because of this that although John has a pretty good impression of Lupine, he does not object to trying to harm him.
And John didn't have the slightest fondness for Sirius Black.
In his opinion, the man's character flaws were serious.
Unfortunately, Harry obviously couldn't understand the irony in Snape's words.
Snape should also understand this.
It wasn't a good feeling that others didn't understand the implications of his words, so he remained silent the whole way.
It wasn't until he was about to arrive at the office that he suddenly said:
"With your cleverness, you should have guessed a lot of things, right?"
"As much as I want to say it's not the case," John said with a smile, "But I'm afraid you won't believe it, right?"
Hearing this, Snape turned his head, looked at John with his calm eyes and said:
"Then you, what should I want to tell you?"
John stopped his smile, looked at Snape and said seriously:
"Please rest assured that I will not tell these things."
Seemingly sensing John's sincerity, Snape nodded and then waved his hand to indicate that John could go to the Halloween dinner.
And when John turned around to leave, he heard Snape say again:
"Ah--right."
As Snape spoke, he threw out two teardrop-shaped pendants, "Elixir, it's a Halloween gift. You and Michelle can each take one."
'Halloween gift?Is it hush money? '
John was thinking in his heart, but said with a smile on his face:
"Thank you for the gift."
Snape nodded and entered the office directly.
And John went to the auditorium.
The auditorium at this moment has changed greatly.
Hundreds of jack-o-lanterns were hung all over the auditorium, as well as a group of fluttering bats and many orange streamers that breathed flames. They floated lazily under the ceiling, like brilliant water snakes.
As soon as John entered, he was overwhelmed by the laughter of students, the smell of pumpkins and the sound of music that filled the auditorium.
"John! You're here! Look what I brought you?"
Draco came over immediately, and while taking something out of a big pocket, he said, "A real golden snitch, you can use the [Repelling Curse] to trap it, so that you can watch it fly. What a wonderful scene.
There are also medals of the Irish Quidditch team, miniature models of broomsticks, a complete set of the most advanced Quidditch protective gear, which has the function of insulating against moisture, and..."
John stretched out his hand to stop his movement, and then said with a smile:
"Our prefect asked you to be a lobbyist?"
Draco heard this and glanced subconsciously in the direction of the seventh-year Slytherin prefect, then scratched his head and said:
"Haha, I knew I couldn't hide this from you. But don't you really think about participating? The situation in this year's Quidditch Cup is very serious, and we need you."
As soon as Draco said this, the surrounding Slytherins all looked at John expectantly.
The two prefects of the seventh grade were even more nervous and clenched their fists.
Unfortunately, John still shook his head and said:
"Sorry, Draco, I have more important things to do."
"Ugh--"
Draco and the other Slytherins sighed in disappointment.
The prefects wanted to persuade him again, but before they could speak, an energetic figure rushed in front of John.
"John! I brought you candy!"
Michelle laughed and took out a huge brown paper bag, "Kool-sour fruit, it's so sour that it can burn a hole in a person's tongue! There are also chocolate frogs, jelly slugs, creamy peanut brittle, and coconut sorbet." , Zizi Honey Candy, Chuibao Super Bubble Gum..."
Michelle grabbed two handfuls of candy every time she said a name.
One of them was stuffed into John's arms, and the other was sprinkled on the surrounding students.
This made the students very happy.
Especially the little wizards in the first and second grade, they scrambled for the candies and cheered one after another.
And sometimes seeing that they really liked it, Michelle would laugh and throw an extra handful.
But this happy situation soon took a turn for the worse.
Because Michelle suddenly said an uncomfortable name:
"...Next, there's a pile of cockroaches!"
As he spoke, Michelle took out a lot of cockroaches and gave them to John as a pretense.
Seeing this, John's expression froze, and he subconsciously activated his magic power, attached it to his legs, and performed a super backward jump.
"Ah? John, don't you like it? Then I can only give it to someone else."
As Michelle spoke, she spread the pile of cockroaches out again.
"what--"
Screams suddenly sounded.
The crowd that had gathered suddenly dispersed.
Everyone was running for their lives, and Michelle was chasing people, dropping a handful of cockroaches from time to time.
This scene made Dumbledore laugh from the faculty seat.
He even picked up a pile of cockroaches that happened to be thrown over and tasted it.
"It actually tastes pretty good," Dumbledore asked with a smile, "Filius, do you want to try it?"
Professor Flitwick looked horrified and shook his head like a rattle.
Professor McGonagall, on the other hand, stared at Michelle with her lips pursed tightly.
Anyone could see that she was extremely angry at this time.
Fortunately, John has already reacted.
He stepped forward and grabbed Michelle by the back of the neck, forcing her to bow with him in the direction of the faculty seat.
Upon seeing this, Professor McGonagall's expression finally looked better.
Michelle muttered:
"John! What are you doing! I'm giving out candy to everyone!"
"That's enough, just go back to your seat!"
Hearing what John said, Michelle originally wanted to talk back.
But the next moment, John put the elixir pendant on Michelle's neck.
"Wow--"
Michelle exclaimed, "What is this? It's so beautiful!"
"It's a Halloween gift from Professor Snape." John explained briefly, "Now, go back and sit down immediately!"
Michelle stopped complaining now and quickly ran back to the Gryffindor table.
As she ran, she shouted to John:
"Professor Snape is so kind. I will give him a lot of candies when I go back and thank him very much!"
Hearing this, the corner of John's mouth twitched, but he didn't say anything.
Halloween dinner quickly got back to normal.
Until late at night, John and Slytherin returned to their respective dormitories.
"John, isn't the elixir you gave Michelle really a blessing?"
Draco was still asking about the Halloween gift just now.
Not only him, but Goyle and Crabbe also looked at John curiously.
That's a blessing elixir!
Giving it away as a Halloween gift is too extravagant, right?
John smiled and looked at Draco and said:
"You also want such a gift?"
Draco was a little embarrassed when his thoughts were revealed, but he still managed a smile and said:
"Oh! John, I don't want the elixir either, it's too expensive. As long as you come and help us play the game this year."
John snorted coldly. He was about to persuade Draco to give up this unrealistic delusion, but he heard a 'bang' and the bedroom door was suddenly pushed open.
"John, something bad is going on!"
A prefect burst in and said, "Sirius Black has broken into Hogwarts, and now Dumbledore has called us to assemble in the Great Hall!"
