Chapter 231 The Boy Who Survived, the Woman Who Came Back from the Dead
Ever since the news of Harry fainting from crying in the infirmary spread, the rumor that "the Savior went crazy because of Sirius" became more and more intense, just like Harry's poor mental condition.
In the past month, Harry Potter's pale complexion and frequent visits to the infirmary despite being healthy and healthy made the rumors extremely reliable, and the students in Hogwarts would chat about Harry's recent situation every day.
Some people sighed, some were worried, and some were gloating. Draco was one of those who gloated at the beginning.
To be precise, he had a sense of victory at the beginning. Draco probably guessed that his words accelerated the deterioration of Harry Potter's mental condition. He was very proud of it and thought that he finally made the two-faced man who took Della away pay the price.
He watched Harry's jokes for half a month with the thought that "Harry Potter was finally crushed by guilt", and the savior's increasingly haggard face and lifeless eyes made him feel guilty again.
It's just a sentence, is it necessary to be like this?
Draco is a child spoiled by an arrogant concept. The arrogance of the environment makes him take insults for granted, and his own willfulness makes him do things without scruples, so he speaks rudely and uses all kinds of tricks to make trouble for others.
But Harry Potter, the savior who had always stolen his glory and embarrassed him in the past, looked shaky and dying just because of his words, making him truly realize for the first time the damage he had caused.
It’s just a sentence, is it really that serious?
A month later, when Draco saw the persistent red bloodshot in Harry Potter's eyes, he no longer responded to Crabbe and Goyle's teasing about Harry Potter being "the savior who will soon be able to live permanently at St. Mungo's". He was left with only confusion and fear in his heart.
Draco, who had always wanted Harry Potter to pay the price, was terrified of the consequences after he actually made Harry Potter half dead.
Fear...fear?
No, it shouldn't be fear, he just didn't understand, it was just that Harry Potter didn't do things according to his ideas again...
Draco mentally excused himself.
Just one sentence. After the loss, Harry Potter should have behaved like the stubborn cockroach he used to be, instead of looking like he was about to die all day long like he does now.
Draco tried to make amends for himself for many days, but the guilt in his heart was getting heavier and heavier, and even missing Della was put aside.
For the first time, this willful child felt the harm caused by his words.
What about the "Mudblood" he had called Della before?
Draco hasn't apologized to Della for this matter yet, and now the situation is not suitable to talk about it again...
Ah, stop. Instead of thinking about something that cannot be done, you might as well think about that bastard Te. Maybe you could scold him a few more times to arouse his fighting spirit.
Stop, this isn't right, why is he trying to stir up Po Te's fighting spirit...
But Harry Potter looked half dead...
Ok……
While Draco was still struggling, the news that "Harry Potter shouted that his mother was back" spread throughout Hogwarts. While confirming that Harry Potter was really crazy, Draco's guilt became even heavier.
Harry Potter was not the only one who reported Lily's resurrection. However, Remus Lupin and Severus Snape did not announce it after waking up from the sleeping spell. They went directly to find Albus Dumbledore.
"Lily, resurrected?" Dumbledore sat on the chair. He looked at Lupin and Snape who were standing in front of the desk with certainty on their faces, and confirmed their words again.
"I saw her as a student. It was Lily Evans," Snape emphasized. "I couldn't be wrong. It was Lily. She was with a cat and a dog, right in Hogwarts."
"Lily in the infirmary is singing a lullaby to Harry. It's the married Lily," Lupin glanced at Snape, frowned and added to Dumbledore, "Sirius is also in the infirmary."
"Hmph, Sirius, what an intimate name," Snape sneered, "Who knows if you came in with him? How could a fugitive hide a living person for so long?"
"Are you saying that I was the one who hid Lily before Sirius escaped from Azkaban?" Lupin met Snape's gaze and spoke louder.
"Then why did Lily suddenly appear after you started teaching, and why did Sirius hide in Hogwarts for so long after you started teaching?" Snape leaned towards Lupin and spoke aggressively.
"Stop," Dumbledore stopped the two people who were about to have physical contact. Compared with the two emotionally excited people, he grasped the key point that two Lilys who could cast spells appeared in one night. "Since you are so sure, then provide some memories."
"I'm fine." The two professors said in unison, raising their wands to their temples, pulling out last night's memories and handing them to Dumbledore.
Because the two parties had different stories, Dumbledore waved his wand and showed them their memories. They first saw Lily Potter singing a lullaby, and then Lily Evans who had grown from an adult to a young woman in front of Snape.
Everyone was telling the truth, and everyone frowned after reading the memory.
"Animagus?" Snape saw the connection between Sirius and the black dog. "No wonder he was able to escape for so long."
Lupin neither confirmed nor refuted Snape's words. He just looked at Dumbledore and said, "No one should be able to change their age instantly."
"That's Lily!" Snape shouted at Lupin before Dumbledore could respond. "I can't mistake those eyes, or the look of her face!"
"..." Lupin still felt something was wrong, but the Lily that night was exactly the Lily he remembered, so he whispered to Dumbledore, "I think I saw Lily, too."
"On her neck," Dumbledore, who had been rewatching the two's memories, discovered, "there is a black snake mark."
Both memories were frozen in the scene where Lily's neck could be seen. When the picture was enlarged, the coiled black snake on it was clearly visible.
"Voldemort?" Lupin said subconsciously.
"..." Snape thought of Della, but quickly denied it, "Della Riddle has been away from school for a year." He said this because he knew that Dumbledore would also think of Della.
"I can't give you an answer," Dumbledore said. He stared at Lily in their memories, his eyes growing darker. "Now we can only find Sirius Black as soon as possible."
"You'd better not cause any more trouble, Remus Lupin." Snape glared at Lupin one last time and walked out, shaking his robes.
After slamming the door, Snape held his chest and his body trembled slightly. His heart was beating wildly.
Another reason to discount Della Riddle's involvement in Lily's reappearance is that it's more likely that Voldemort brought Lily back from the dead...
Severus Snape missed Lily so much that he was determined to get involved even if it was some conspiracy.
