Chapter 131

In the classroom that had calmed down, the eyes of the students still fell on Luke from time to time.Seeing Luke's calm expression, they were a little moved.

If they changed the perspective of what happened just now, they thought they couldn't be as calm as Luke.Being pointed at with a wand by a well-known wizard in the wizarding world is not a treat that everyone can get.Even in the outside world, people who were pointed out by Snape often later became like him, a little famous person.Of course, the premise is that he is not dead.

On the podium, Taylor is demonstrating to everyone the trauma treatment potion to be covered in this class.During this period, did she glance at Luke, and found that Luke's expression hadn't changed much, and her brows hadn't loosened.

"What the hell was Snape thinking?"

Of course, Ron and Harry would not have this opportunity to have a good chat in Potions class.

"At first, it looked as if he was going to do something to Luke. But in a blink of an eye, Taylor was asked to substitute for us. Isn't this very contradictory?"

After listening to Ron's words, Harry also felt something was wrong, but after a while, he shook his head and said, "It's not a problem. Apart from Taylor, there is no one else who can substitute for him."

After hearing this, Ron wanted to say something more, but after seeing the whole classroom listening carefully, he swallowed back what he originally wanted to refute.

"But... I do feel a little awkward."

After a while, looking at Luke's expression, Harry let out a long breath, but said with a frown.

Hermione looked at Luke with some concern. She could subconsciously think about it when she was faced with the situation in front of her.

The conflict between the two came out of nowhere, and Luke's response seemed impeccable.But inside and out always give people a kind of something wrong.

Hermione struggled, looking at Luke's calm face, her thinking went deeper and deeper.

"Snape's sudden attack is unreasonable. Whether it's a test or something, it shouldn't be in front of a student. Unless... it's a warning."

"Luke did something, and Snape noticed his hands, and then you want to give him a little warning?"

Thinking of this, Hermione shook her head to herself: "The warning is too blatant. Luke will be exposed to the eyes of those who care... Is this the purpose? Let Luke passively move from the dark place to the bright place .Let him be in the sun, some methods cannot be used, some methods must be accepted..."

Hermione felt that her guess was close to the truth, but her intuition told her that there was still something wrong...

Hasty and heavy footsteps sounded in the corridor.

Snape went first, and Professor McGonagall followed.She still held her wand in her hand, and looked at Snape with vigilance.If it weren't for the trust and mutual understanding developed during so many years of working together, Professor McGonagall would have done it directly just now.

In the classroom, pointing at the students with his own wand, it is still not like facing the students, but more like facing the enemy.How could she not be surprised and angry by this?

Especially when that student was Luke.

At this time, Professor McGonagall also thought a lot.She even began to seriously consider the words that Harry and Ron had said on weekdays, which felt like slander.

Could it be that Snape really still remembered those things back then, and really angered Harry?

These adults are actually concerned about Harry on weekdays, but they still don't understand this kind of thing.At least she doesn't understand.There are too many things, and her daily tasks are exhausting enough.Now there is an extra worry-free Luke by his side.When facing Harry, his energy was really lacking.

And Snape, not to mention in her eyes, even in the eyes of Hagrid who is most inclined to Harry, he is also a professor. He may not like a certain student, so it is normal to target him .

Teachers are human too, and they will have students they like and students they don't like.Especially for someone like Snape who was a bit stingy on weekdays.But no one thought Snape would cross the line.

Targeting may be there, but abuse, harshness, these things should not exist.This involves the professional ethics of a professor.

At this point, they believed in Snape.

In fact, what Harry and Ron said on weekdays is indeed somewhat exaggerated.Everyone didn't take it seriously, and they didn't take it too seriously.But this time, Luke really let those gossips that had been exaggerated how many times, forcibly had a real example.

On weekdays, Snape's bad reputation and the gossip that spread to their ears suddenly seemed a bit real.

Professor McGonagall became more and more suspicious.

Fortunately, the journey to the principal's office was not that long.So they reached the door of the Headmaster's office just in time, before Professor McGonagall thought Snape was the Death Eaters hiding in the school.

After getting the answer, they knocked on the door of the principal's office. After entering the principal's office, Professor McGonagall heard Dumbledore's voice.

"Minerva, please help me with the official letter from the Ministry of Magic."

Dumbledore sat in his seat with the usual calm expression on his face.But Professor McGonagall felt a little aggrieved.

"Can you stop this?"

Professor McGonagall said with resentment in his tone: "Can't you trust me?"

Dumbledore still wanted to put things away, but after seeing Professor McGonagall's expression, he put out the idea.

"Behind this incident, after all, Luke has nothing to do with it. I'm afraid it will embarrass you."

Snape gave Dumbledore a strange look, as if asking if this was really appropriate.

Professor McGonagall frowned the moment he heard Luke's name.Although I had guessed it a long time ago, when it was confirmed by Dumbledore, I was still a little complicated.

After a long silence, Teacher McGonagall said: "After all, I'm just a child, so what deserves your attention..."

"If possible, I really hope that he is a simple child."

Dumbledore shook his head and said: "But it is impossible for a simple child to be safe and sound in many subsequent things. So you don't even think about admonishing that child."

"That's not helping him."

Professor McGonagall was uncomfortable with this sentence.Having been friends for so many years, she knew very well how powerful Dumbledore was.And Luke and Dumbledore plot against each other.Professor McGonagall really felt that Luke was shaking the tree by being overwhelmed.

Dumbledore didn't look at Professor McGonagall before continuing, "You don't have to worry too much, that kid is much more powerful than you think."

As soon as the words came out, Professor McGonagall didn't have any surprised expression on his face, but was even more worried. He wanted to speak, but was blocked by Dumbledore.

"Okay, Severus and I still have something to talk about, so you can help me with some official letters first. Fudge...you'll know when you look at it."

Dumbledore said with a slightly serious face.

Professor McGonagall took a breath, then nodded, turned and opened the door, and walked out.

Slammed the door loudly.

The portrait of the principal who was shocked and awakened was about to say something, but before he could speak, he was suppressed by Dumbledore's serious expression.

Digu said a few words, and then he closed his eyes again.

There was a moment of silence in the room, and then Snape said, "Is Professor McGonagall so naive? Is it true that she can't tell who that kid is at all?"

Luke's character cannot be said to be clear at a glance, but it can still be seen to some extent.

"I just don't want to see it..." Dumbledore shook his head, this kind of thing was not what he expected.Luke's kindness to Professor McGonagall is naturally sincere.Just like he spared no effort to be kind to many people.

Only by doing so well can people's hearts be truly exchanged, instead of simply calculating things.Snape nodded, but said nothing more.

"How are your results?"

Dumbledore didn't say anything more, and spoke after a while.

"Nothing." Snape shook his head and said, "He looked very calm. The same is true in his mind. Maybe it's the result of Occlumency..."

Serious people who practice Occlumency!

Dumbledore nodded: "Is it possible that the person you were talking about last night was him?"

"I'm not sure, and I even feel that the possibility is relatively small." Snape didn't hide it either. He really couldn't guess this matter. gram corresponds.

There is also the body shape, there is no similarity in these.Things like the details of his appearance were covered up by that snake face mask.Cause they can't see anything.

This time, under the deliberate investigation, there was no greater gain, and even, he felt that Luke was different from that person more and more.

"However, when I was probing, Luke's calmness was indeed a bit strange. It seemed to have been expected." Snape said seriously, "I don't have any evidence, but my instinct tells me that he is very likely to Knowingly."

Dumbledore did not respond. Such speculation is very irresponsible, but it may not be a breakthrough.

"In this situation, doesn't it prove that Quirrell is fine?"

Snape narrowed his eyes, stared at Dumbledore, and said tentatively.

"No."

Dumbledore responded simply.

"It is indeed possible that Luke knew about this. Whether that person is Luke, it's hard to say... After all, no matter what special spells, or some hidden servants of the Gaunt family, the existence of these things is impossible. Unexpected."

Dumbledore was not surprised, and then said silently: "Forget it, let's do this first. You don't want to touch Luke's brow again for the time being. We... are not enemies yet."

Snape nodded in response, rather disapproving in his heart.They may not really be enemies for the time being, but the other party definitely has no good intentions, at least, they are using...

But he didn't have the idea of ​​getting so stiff with Luke.

That's why he asked Taylor to help him as a substitute. First, Taylor did have this ability, and second, he also expressed his attitude to Luke.

Thinking of this, Snape couldn't help but sigh...

Dumbledore seemed to have guessed what Snape was thinking and said, "Don't underestimate these children."

In his life, he has seen too many children.There are a lot of naive ones, and surprisingly smart ones. Although they are a minority, in terms of the number alone, it is indeed not a small number.

Like Luke, he is very smart, but he is not unique in his life.At least, he thinks that Grindelwald was no worse than Luke back then.Even stronger.

"maybe."

Snape said something lukewarm, then turned and left.

The room was quiet again.Dumbledore was silent for a long time, then let out a long breath, took off his eyes, and rubbed his own bamboo hole.

Such a thing, after all, is too exhausting for an old man.After all, he is not that young man anymore, and he has become more and more powerless over the years.

Glancing at the letter on the table, he sighed again.

"Things are really getting messy."

"what is the problem?"

When Luke walked out of the classroom, Gemma had already come to the door.With a worried look on his face.

Obviously heard about what happened in this class.It's true that this kind of thing can't be hidden from people, but it's still a little hard for Luke to understand that it spread so quickly.

"It's nothing...it's just a test."

In fact, there is no need to say too much, just one point, and everyone knows it well.

"Okay, don't think so much. I will be more honest recently, and you don't have to worry about it."

Luke also sighed lightly, and was quite helpless. He really had to reflect on himself.So it's better to be honest and quiet for a while.

All the layouts are basically completed, even if it suffers a loss this time, there is no big problem.

As soon as he said this, everyone around him breathed a sigh of relief.What kind of Luke is the most reassuring, and Luke who tries to do as little as possible is the person everyone trusts the most.

Luke looked at their expressions, the corner of his mouth twitched slightly, and then said with a little helplessness: "You...you don't have to do this."

"necessary!"

Taylor said mercilessly.

Luke looked at their expressions, and after all, he still didn't have the nerve to say that the current situation must be much easier than in the future. If nothing else, just talk about this summer vacation, I don't know how many things will happen.

Thinking about his life in the summer vacation after that, he himself felt a headache...
