"Of course, Professor." Kyle spread his hands indifferently, "But is there any problem? Learning magic texts requires concentration. Sometimes, if you are distracted for a moment, you may not understand the following content. Are you thinking Go make trouble..."
Snape's expression froze.
"What?" Kyle held back his laughter, "Professor, what do you think I mean?"
"Of course that's the case." Snape took a deep breath and used his strong face to cover up his true thoughts.
"I'm warning you, stay away from her!"
"It can't be done." Kyle looked into Snape's eyes and said word by word, "Yes, you heard me right... It's impossible, I can't do it, don't even think about it!"
Snape immediately exploded, and the good mood he had just exchanged for fifty Gryffindor points was instantly gone.
But soon he seemed to think of something and calmed down again.
"Then you'd better be more honest." Snape gritted his teeth and squeezed his voice out from between his teeth. "Don't let me see you do anything outrageous again. Otherwise, you will definitely regret it. I no sooner said than done!"
"Don't worry." This time Kyle agreed without thinking.
It was definitely impossible for him to see what he said.
Kyle immediately put on a standard fake smile and said attentively, "Well, professor, the Potions classroom is on the third floor. I'll take you there."
In the past few days, he has become very familiar with this place. He knows exactly which classroom is which class.
Snape said nothing more and just followed Kyle to the third floor.
During this process, neither of them spoke, and the atmosphere seemed a little awkward.
It seemed that he felt a little awkward. When he reached the third floor, Kyle took the initiative to speak and broke the silence.
"Professor. Have you ever thought about changing your job?"
"What do you mean?" Snape narrowed his eyes.
"Don't get me wrong." Kyle stopped in front of a classroom door. "I mean, open a potion shop or something like that. I happen to have a shop in Diagon Alley, which was given to me by Sirius."
"Really? That's really generous of him." Snape said sinisterly, "Thank you. So what do you mean?"
"Nothing." Kyle shrugged, "It's just...well, if Professor Dumbledore makes any excessive demands, such as asking you to do a dangerous task, you can actually refuse.
"Even if you can't be a professor because of this, you can still sell potions in Diagon Alley. My friends, the Weasley brothers, opened a shop in Diagon Alley. To be honest, you can make a lot of money, at least more than the professor." The salary is much higher.”
"What do you mean?" Snape said, his face tense, and he didn't understand why Kyle suddenly said such...inexplicable words.
Subconsciously, Snape thought of some possibility, but he quickly rejected it.
Impossible... Dumbledore would never tell anyone else his identity. Even if he was really senile, that person would not be a student.
He stared hard into Kyle's eyes, as if trying to find the answer.
It's a pity that Kyle is not Harry. Under the protection of Occlumency, he can't see anything.
Subconsciously, Snape reached into his robe pocket, where there was a small bottle.
Veritaserum... he specially brought it with him when he went out today.
"That's fine." Kyle smiled, not paying attention to Snape's actions.
He pointed to the door next to him, "This is the Potions classroom, but Professor, I must say that there is nothing interesting to see here. You may be a little disappointed."
Potions is probably the only course here that has not changed much. Apart from the types of potions that need to be configured, the other processes are almost exactly the same as now.
But just as Kyle was about to leave, he was stopped by Snape.
"What exactly do you know?" he asked in a deep voice.
"I don't know." Kyle said with a smile, "It's just that the Death Eaters are very rampant now. If Dumbledore asks the professor to deal with them one day, just think of a reason to refuse... Even if it is For Connor."
Snape was silent, not knowing what he was thinking. After a long time, he said softly: "A professor's job is to protect students."
"I know." Kyle nodded, "I just said it casually. Professor, you don't have to worry about it."

Chapter 755 Stop it, don’t fight anymore
I have to say, Snape is quite brave.
It seemed that he was unwilling to ask Kyle to help him a second time. After entering the Room of Requirement, he stayed there for five days without ever leaving.
Everything else is easy to solve. After all, this is a real castle and everything is available.
Only eating...Kyle didn't know how he survived for so many days.
Maybe he asked Kang Na to help bring him in, or maybe he drank the magic potion.
For example, if you drink one bottle of Vitality Potion, you can go without eating for a whole day, but the disadvantage is that it tastes terrible.
Kyle drank it once, and it felt like taking all the nasty flavors of Bibi's All-Flavour Beans and kneading them into a ball, squeezing them into juice, and then throwing a handful of dirt into them.
Anyway, if Kyle had a choice, he would rather bring more bread and baked potatoes in the morning than drink that stuff.
But Snape should be able to bear it. If he gets another bag with the Invisible Stretching Charm on it, he will have no problem carrying a dozen or twenty bottles of vitality potions.
But Kyle didn't know exactly what Snape did. Except for a few words on the first day, the two never spoke again.
Mainly because he didn't have this opportunity. After all, the only place Kyle didn't want to go was the Potions classroom.
It was the sixth day when he saw Snape again. At that time, he looked thinner than before, but his eyes were bright.
It can be seen that Snape, like other professors, has gained a lot.
Although Kyle was curious, he also knew that Snape would definitely not tell him, so he wisely did not ask and continued back to the Charms classroom.
"Don't deliberately manipulate the magic text, treat it as part of the magic." The old professor said, taking out his wand and waving it twice.
His movements were very light, as if he was conducting a large concert, and the flickering magic words were the beating notes.
It is obviously the simplest lighting spell, but it emits a dazzling light like the sun.
Kyle also imitated him and waved his wand... but nothing happened, and the tip of the wand flashed perfunctorily.
The time was too short, and he had no time to use magic power to draw the magic text.
"What an idiot! How can there be a stupid student like you in this classroom!"
The old professor roared: "Although the magic power is ink, the wand is not the only quill. The spells you recite are not another form of magic text!"
Kyle was scolded in the face, something that had never happened in the past six years. But in the past month or so, it has become the norm.
He has long been used to it.
Anyway, it's impossible for the other party to hit him with a magic wand, so just curse him a few times.
Kyle listened to the professor's words and adjusted his spell casting method little by little.
……
This went on until the day before school started, when Kyle decided to take a vacation for himself.
After being scolded for such a long time, even if he didn't care, it was still a bit stressful. In addition, continuous high-intensity study was also very energy-consuming, so it was necessary to relax a little.
It started to rain in the early morning that day, and Kyle slept until eleven o'clock before walking out of the dormitory yawning.
There were many people in the common room, but everyone was doing homework. No one paid attention to others, including Kang Na, who was also doing homework.
She had been in the Room of Requirement for a long time, and she didn't realize something very important until two days ago.
Kyle didn't need to do her homework because she asked for leave in advance, but she didn't ask for leave...
It was an impossible task to finish two weeks of homework in three days. When Kangna realized this, she was stunned.
Kyle originally wanted to write it for her, which wasn't difficult, just a few tweaks to the auto-answer quill.
But Kangna disagreed and insisted on writing it herself.
All Kyle could do was stay as far away from her as possible... He couldn't help it. After all, he invited Kangna to the Room of Requirement, and he also ignored the fact that there was homework. Thinking about it now, he still felt a little guilty.
Without disturbing anyone, Kyle quietly walked out of the common room and took a leisurely stroll around the castle.
It seemed like it had been a long time since he had been like this. He didn't have to rush for time and just walked around the castle aimlessly.
Looking at the dim castle walls, faded picture frames, and cemented railings on both sides of the corridor, Kyle was still in a daze for a moment.
I don’t know if it’s because he’s used to it, but Kyle still finds these pleasing to the eye. The Hogwarts in the Room of Requirement is a bit too new for him.
As he was walking, Kyle suddenly encountered a group of seventh-grade students who had just come down from upstairs. They must be Gryffindors. They were chattering around one person.
But because there were too many people and the angle, Kyle didn't see clearly who it was at first, but soon he spotted an acquaintance.
"Hermione!" Kyle waved hello.
"Kyle?" Hermione, who was walking at the back, ran over holding a few books, "Why are you here?"
"It's just a visit to the castle. It's just free time anyway." Kyle said, "By the way, who was the person who passed by just now? He was so popular."
"Ah, it's Katie Bell," Hermione said. "She just came back from St. Mungo's this morning."
"She recovered?"
"It's completely fine, she said so herself." Hermione nodded, but soon thought of something and added: "But Harry has already asked, and she doesn't remember who used the Imperius Curse on her. , I just remember it was in The Three Broomsticks.”
"That's okay." Kyle said nonchalantly. He had no intention of asking this.
In fact, the person who used the Imperius Curse on Katie Bell was none other than Ms. Rosmerta, which he knew after the last love potion incident.
Ms. Rosmerta herself admitted that she also used the Imperius Curse on a girl at Hogwarts while she was under its control.
But this was not her intention, it was manipulated.
It's just that this matter was kept strictly confidential by the professors, and few people knew about it, including Harry.
"Where are you going?" Kyle glanced at the books in her hands. The top one was "Wands and Magic".
"You haven't finished your homework yet, right?"
"No, I have finished writing it a long time ago, it's Harry and Ron." Hermione said, "But now they have finished writing it, and I am going to return the book."
"That's it, then go ahead." Kyle smiled and waved his hand, ready to continue looking upstairs.
"Wait, Kyle." At this moment, Hermione suddenly called him from behind and asked, "I heard someone said that you took leave and didn't go to class? Is this true?"
"Who said that."
"Cormac McLaggen, a seventh-year Gryffindor," Hermione said. "He said at a dinner that he hadn't seen you in class for a long time, and then Professor Slughorn said you were absent from class."
