Hogwarts Kryptonian.

Chapter 309 Watching
"You?? Severus..."

"You can't trust me?" Snape looked at Kingsley and asked seriously.

Kingsley card case.

"Or... Minerva, don't you trust me?" Snape looked at McGonagall.

"... To be honest, I can't trust you." McGonagall nodded, "But Dumbledore trusts you very much. And I... trust Dumbledore."

"What about you?" Snape looked at Lu Yunkai.

"I... can't believe it."

Lu Yunkai shook his head seriously.

Snape was taken aback.

"You used to be a Death Eater, and you turned to support the Order of the Phoenix because of Harry's affairs, right?" Lu Yunkai said with a serious expression, "Now Harry is not in too much danger, Dumbledore is dead, the Order of the Phoenix is ​​equal to Disbanded. And Voldemort looks so miserable now, God knows what you'd do to pity him...it's dangerous."

Quiet.

The atmosphere in the principal's office is very strange.

Lu Yunkai's words were so straightforward that no one could refute them. Even Lu Yunkai was convinced that Mag and Kingsley definitely shared this concern, but it was inconvenient for them to speak out for various reasons.

Lu Yunkai popped the balloon, and Snape had to respond seriously.

If there is no way to explain this matter clearly, of course no one will have the confidence to believe that he will not quietly help Voldemort find a way to resurrect.

"I think you've got something wrong." Snape's expression was gloomy. "I'm not against the Dark Lord because of Harry."

"Is it because of justice?"

"It's because of Harry's mother, Lily." Snape snorted, "But Lily has died at the hands of the Dark Lord forever, and this matter can never be changed."

Quiet.

"Well, I'm sorry, Professor, I was wrong." Lu Yunkai admitted his mistake very simply.

yes!Harry's mother was the reason Snape turned against Voldemort, not Harry.Harry is still alive, but Lily is dead. Since she is dead and can never be resurrected, Snape will never forgive Voldemort.

Lu Yunkai was indeed a little overwhelmed.

"But, Severus. Guarding Voldemort is a job that will last for who knows how many years..." Kingsley still wanted to persuade Snape.

"Before, I did a lot of things. Although I don't think it was wrong, but... well, it was indeed against the Ministry of Magic's decree." Snape looked at Kingsley, very sincerely, "Dumbledore Lido went to the Ministry of Magic to testify against me and save me from being imprisoned in Azkaban, but I know very well that I was guilty during my years as a Death Eater. Now, I think, is my chance to redeem myself. "

"...Severus, you..." Kingsley had a strange expression on his face.

"I should be the one who should die in Nurmengard, not Arthur and Molly." Snape sighed softly, "I've been wondering why I haven't died this year, maybe now I I understand. I still have sins to redeem, and I cannot die yet."

Quiet.

"Minerva, I'll leave the matter of Hogwarts to you." Snape calmly looked at Professor McGonagall who had a lot to say but didn't say anything. It's also Dumbledore's arrangement, right?"

"Are you sure?" Professor McGonagall looked at Snape, but did not persuade him.

"I thought about it all night last night. This is the best solution I can think of." Snape nodded. Leave it to the young people."

"Young man..." Professor McGonagall was taken aback for a moment, then glanced at Lu Yunkai, and smiled, "That's right. Then you should retire first!"

"Yeah." Snape nodded.

There was a relaxed smile on his face.

……

"Professor, this is it."

"Well, I'll just go in by myself."

On the coast of Scotland.

Snape's expression was the same as when he was at Hogwarts just now, relaxed, even with a little smile.Lu Yunkai swore that he had known Snape for so many years, and he had never seen him smile so much like today.

But Lu Yunkai who was following him had a low tone.

"You don't have to do this, this is much better than what I want." Snape looked at Lu Yunkai's painful expression, and smiled, "It's not that I'm going to die, maybe someday I'll think about it, Will visit you at Hogwarts."

"...En." Lu Yunkai nodded.

That said, Snape didn't make him feel any better.

Lu Yunkai knew very well that Snape shouldered the responsibility of guarding Voldemort, which was completely different from him arranging Chris to follow him.

Chris's is called imprisonment, and Snape's is called exile.

In the past year, Lu Yunkai often saw Snape wandering around the school by himself, still looking like that giant bat, but his expression was often blank.

Lu Yunkai understood that when Voldemort was destroyed again and even Dumbledore died, Snape seemed to have lost the direction of living.

He didn't know what he should do next, what he could do...

He also lacked even the slightest enthusiasm in the Defense Against the Dark Arts class that he wanted to be, and he was not even as active as he used to be in giving Slytherin points in school.

That's why just now in the principal's office, Snape proposed that he should guard Voldemort. McGonagall and Kingsley had no objection at all. They both understood that Snape needed a reason to live.

This may be the best solution.

But it is also the most helpless solution.

"As your professor, there are some things I can't tell you." Snape looked at Lu Yunkai, but smiled happily, "But now, I am no longer a professor at Hogwarts, I can tell you those words. It's just...are you willing to listen?"

"What?" Lu Yunkai nodded.

His heart became more and more uncomfortable.

what is this?Are his words good? ?

"How to become the next Dark Lord."

"Professor... Mr. Snape, you say."

"The Dark Lord said more than once that you are very similar to Grindelwald, or even exactly the same. I have to say that he is very accurate in judging people." Snape looked at Lu Yunkai's constipated expression, smiled and shook his head, "You At the same time, you have the wisdom of Slytherin and the courage of Gryffindor, but you can see some things far less clearly than Grindelwald."

"……what?"

"Human nature." Snape put away his smile, "You are a kind person, which is not a good quality, because when you sometimes have to do some not-so-kind things, you will be too kind. So much guilt. For example, when you need to ditch Nagini."

Having said that, Snape glanced into the hole.

Lu Yunkai was taken aback.

"So, you have to learn to be less kind." Snape still said seriously: "At least, you have to learn to be ruthless. For some people, you have to get used to not treating them as human beings, and then you can... you don't fight break me."

Snape waved his hand, motioning Lu Yunkai who wanted to say something to shut up.

Lu Yunkai shut up obediently.

"Perhaps you have forgotten that you once grew up in a Muggle beer hall. Does the guy in that beer hall deserve your kindness?" Snape asked Lu Yunkai back.

Lu Yunkai remained silent.

Not worthy.

He also instantly understood Snape's logic, since not everyone deserves it, then everyone is unworthy.

"Humans have many kinds of emotions, some great, such as love, such as dedication, but not everyone can have these things." Snape looked at Lu Yunkai's appearance, and sighed softly, "You can't expect everyone to Like Dumbledore, you can give up your life for the greater good. So, if one day, you have to face all wizards and Muggles, what you need to do is to find their common emotions Take advantage of it."

"...Are you afraid?" Lu Yunkai understood a little.

The most primitive human emotion, fear.

"Yes." Snape nodded, "Of course, and jealousy. The two Dark Lords took advantage of this emotion and became figures worthy of writing in the history of magic. I hope they can be a good example for you. "

"Role models..." Lu Yun laughed, "Both of them didn't end well."

"You told me that if you want to abolish the International Statute of Secrecy, you are doomed to follow the path of the two Dark Lords. How much better will your result be than theirs? I'm not very optimistic." Snape Seriously speaking scary words, "I have advised you more than once to stay away from the Dark Lord and the Order of the Phoenix, but you still plunged into it. This is the path you chose, no wonder others."

"Ah."

"However, you have two exes, so you can learn some experience from them. And I... can also tell you my thoughts." Snape looked at Lu Yunkai's depressed look, and smiled, " Before the Dark Lord reappeared a few years ago, I thought about what defeated him. Is it a prophecy? Is it the Order of the Phoenix? Or... something else."

"What do you think?" Lu Yunkai was curious about Snape's answer.

"He's going in the wrong direction." Snape sighed softly. "He shouldn't have chosen Muggle-born wizards as his enemies in the first place. Not only shouldn't those Muggle-born wizards be his enemies, Instead, it should be his most reliable ally, subordinate and supporter."

"Why do you say that?" Lu Yunkai was a little clouded by what he said.

"Didn't you say it yourself? Muggle-born wizards are the most opposed to the International Statute of Secrecy." Snape shook his head, "If they choose to become a wizard, they have to reduce or even cut off their Muggle parents. Contact, this is your thinking from the good side, you think of people too kindly..."

"Then how do you think it's not so kind?" Lu Yunkai vaguely guessed what Snape was going to say.

"Muggle-born wizards will be more eager to integrate into the wizarding group. Therefore, they may wish to sever their connection with the Muggle world." Snape smiled slightly, "Just need proper guidance, and they may even prove themselves Already a wizard, he has done many things beyond the lower limit of ordinary wizards."

"En." Lu Yunkai narrowed his eyes.

Lu Yunkai's heart skipped a beat.

What Snape said...seemed to be true.Just like Lu Yunkai, didn't he also become a Quidditch captain who had no interest at all in order to prove that he was a Slytherin, as well as a prefect of Slytherin house?

Appropriate guidance...

Is it human?

"You have a natural advantage over the Dark Lord. You are a Muggle-born student and a student of Slytherin. I believe you will find a reasonable way to use this advantage to achieve your goals." Sneh Seeing Lu Yunkai's expression, Pu smiled, "It's not my turn to teach you these things."

"I understand." Lu Yunkai nodded, indicating that he understood.

"Then I'm leaving." Snape smiled and stretched out his hand, hugged Lu Yunkai lightly, patted him on the shoulder, and walked into the cave.

Lu Yunkai was slightly taken aback.

This seemed to be the first time since he knew Snape seven years ago that he made such an intimate gesture with Lu Yunkai, right?
This man who looks like a black iron tower...

For a moment, Lu Yunkai felt that his nose was slightly acidic.

"I can go now, right?"

Snape went into the cave, and Nagini came out.

Looking at Lu Yunkai with red eyes, he asked.

"Okay." Lu Yun nodded.

"There will be no time after that." Nagini nodded, "I probably won't return to England in the future, and I won't see you again."

"..."

"Why?" Nagini shook his head with a smile, "Reluctance? Not so much?"

"Don't miss you in the future! I...maybe I need your help in the future!"

"Let's talk about the future!" Nagini sighed with a smile, "I'm leaving, goodbye."

"……goodbye."

With a flash before Lu Yunkai's eyes, Nagini's shadow disappeared.

And in the cave, Snape's voice came faintly.

Lu Yunkai sighed softly, and waved the magic wand in his hand.

The figure also disappeared from the shore.
