Professor HP is not a pedophile

Chapter 37 Murder Case

Severus watched the little thing rushing towards him like this, and asked him in panic, "Professor, what, what should I do?"

"What's the matter?" Severus came out from behind the desk, led him to sit down on the sofa, and asked concerned, "What happened?"

Harry grabbed his sleeve with trembling hands, leaned close to him, "Just now when I came back and passed outside the kitchen, I saw a senior Slytherin girl lying at the kitchen door, she didn't respond to my calling , and not breathing, she, is she dead?"

Severus turned pale, and quickly asked him, "Was anyone there at the time?"

Harry shook his head violently, "No! Not a single one!"

"Stay here and don't go out, I'll go and have a look." Severus stood up decisively, but was grabbed by the little thing, "What's wrong?"

Harry looked at him in horror, "I don't want to stay here alone..."

Severus sighed, knowing that he was terrified, but he couldn't bear to let him see that scene again, so he had to coax him, "Don't go, aren't you afraid? You go to the principal's office by the fireplace and put this Tell Dumbledore about it."

The little thing stubbornly grabbed his sleeve, stared at him without speaking, but tears were about to fall.He didn't know why he was like this, he just wanted to follow Professor Snape all the time, as if only by following him could he feel at ease.

"Okay..." Severus held his hand helplessly, took out his wand and summoned his Patronus, seeing the silver-white mist on the tip of the wand turned into a cute little stag, he froze for a moment, Subconsciously looked at the little thing beside him.This was the first time he had summoned his patron saint since his rebirth, and he did not expect such a change.But this change made him really happy.

"It's so cute~" Harry forgot his fear for a moment, and curiously stretched out his hand to touch the stag's short horns, then looked at Severus, "Professor, what is this?"

Severus smiled at him, his eyes focused and gentle, "This is my Patronus." He directed the little stag to send a message to Dumbledore telling him that Harry met him, and then with a feeling of The little thing that calmed down went out the door.

Once out of the office door, Harry became a little scared again.He held Severus' hand tightly, and followed him step by step to the kitchen door not far from the cellar, but the Slytherin girl was no longer in sight.

"Harry, is this where you saw her?" Severus pointed to the open space in front of the door.

Harry's eyes widened, and then he looked at Severus in panic, explaining incoherently, "I, I really saw it! I wasn't lying!"

Severus quickly comforted him, "I know, I know, I believe you, can you tell me about the situation at that time?"

Harry said sleepily: "When I came over, I saw her lying there, and there was no one around. I thought she was fainted, so I went to see her, and then saw her eyes wide open. How could I yell? She didn't respond, and she wasn't breathing, so I was so frightened that I ran back to find you."

Severus suddenly thought of something and asked him, "Is Hai Erbo with you today?"

"Yeah," Harry rummaged through his pockets and took out a glistening green thing, "Helper said it was too cold, and he wanted to hibernate for a while, so he curled up and slept all day."

Wasn't it petrified by Hai Erbo?This is strange...

Severus led Harry back, frowning so hard he could kill a fly.

After a few steps, hurried footsteps came from behind them, and when they looked back, Dumbledore was running over in a hurry.

The old man didn't talk much, he came up and asked Harry the whole process in a concise manner, and then unfolded the Marauder's Map that he had been holding in his hand, but he didn't see any strange names.

There were no portraits of people besides the huge fruit painting at the door of the kitchen, so they couldn't find any witnesses.

Dumbledore had no choice but to ask Severus to hurry to check if any senior girls in Lytherin were missing.But since it was still daytime, people from all grades would not get together, so we had to wait until night to check in Slytherin's dormitory.

Back in the office, Severus ordered Harry to put on all the alchemy items he had given him last time. He also woke up the soundly asleep Hai Erbo, and gave him a lot of orders until he swore he would stay awake every step of the way. He didn't stop following Harry.

At night when the curfew was approaching, Severus put Harry to sleep, came to the Slytherin common room, and ordered the prefects to gather everyone together, and finally found out the identity of the missing girl — Laya Knott — This is a die-hard supporter of pure-blood theory with four or five Death Eaters in his family.But he got nowhere when he asked if anyone had noticed anything unusual about her lately.But that's not surprising, Slytherins have always been good at putting on paper.

He quickly found the Marauder's map that Dumbledore had borrowed, but Laya Nott's name could not be found on the map at all, which also proved that she was really dead.

"So, there must be an infiltrator, but why isn't the name displayed on the Marauder's Map?" Dumbledore tapped his index finger on the table and pondered, "Where did that infiltrator hide?"

Severus thought for a while, and finally thought of it, "The two places are either the Room of Requirement or the Chamber of Secrets. If it's in the Chamber of Secrets, it means that the person definitely has a Horcrux."

Dumbledore's face wrinkled into a chrysanthemum, "The secret room is easy to find, but it will be troublesome if there is a room of responsiveness. Who knows what secret language that person set up..."

He sighed, "Severus, it seems we can only hope that Merlin blesses the infiltrator to hide in the Chamber of Secrets, you go back and call little Harry, let's go and have a look."

Severus darkened.It's late at night, the little thing is already asleep, but he can't object, who knows if the infiltrator will escape again if he doesn't look for it quickly, or create another murder case?

Gritting his teeth, he returned to the cellar, furious at the intruder.

His little thing slept deeply, his little face was buried under the quilt, only the part above the nose was exposed, and his face was radiant with a healthy rosy color, looking extremely cute.

He lowered his head to press a gentle kiss on that pink cheek, and then pinched the little thing's straight nose with a bit of mischief.

The little thing's face was flushed, he grunted, pulled down the quilt a little with his two little paws, changed to breathing through his mouth, and continued to sleep unconsciously.

Severus kissed the little paw grabbing the edge of the quilt with a smile on his face, lowered his head and whispered coaxingly in his ear: "Harry, wake up, we're going to be late."

Tickled by the breath he exhaled, his little furry head moved uncomfortably and tilted to one side.

Severus sighed, took the clothes on the bedside table, lifted the quilt, hugged the little thing in his arms, and put it on for him, he decided to take the man somewhere and wake him up, And let him sleep a little longer...

Suddenly exposed to the cold air, the little thing, who was in a deep sleep, unconsciously burrowed into his arms.Severus cast a Warming Charm on him and managed to get him dressed.And during the whole process, Harry didn't wake up at all.

Haierbo, who was sleeping in a small basket on the bedside table, had already been woken up by his movement, raised his head and stared at him with a "hiss hiss" in doubt.

"Helbo, I don't understand you," Severus said, "Don't bother, we're going to the Chamber of Secrets, and I need your help." With Haile Bo, there shouldn't be much danger.

Hai Erbo nodded his head, crawled out of the small basket, and climbed onto his hand.

Putting Haierbo in his pocket and taking the necessary potions, Severus hugged the child and walked briskly and steadily to the abandoned women's bathroom on the second floor.

When Dumbledore saw Harry sleeping on his shoulder, his eyes were a little teasing, "Severus, can little Harry, who is sleeping, open the Chamber of Secrets?"

Severus ignored him, but shook his arm, "Harry, wake up."

Harry, who was sitting on his arm with his little buttocks, was bumped several times by him, and finally woke up.

"Huh? Professor?" The little thing reached out and rubbed his eyes, yawned, and looked at the face close at hand in a daze, "Is it dawn? I don't have class this morning..."

Severus freed a hand to wipe the tears from the corners of his eyes from yawning, and brought a bottle of refreshing potion to his mouth, "Drink this first."

Harry obediently drank the strawberry-flavored "For Harry" potion, and immediately regained his energy.Only then did he notice the surrounding environment and Dumbledore standing aside.

"Professor, why are we here? It's not yet dawn, why is Mr. Headmaster here? Has something happened?" Harry asked suspiciously, and then suddenly realized that he was being hugged by Severus, he was a little shy Struggling, "Put me down quickly, I, I am very heavy."

"How heavy is your weight?" Severus carried him directly to the snake-shaped faucet, "Open the secret room, we're going in."

Harry couldn't resist him, so he had to say to the faucet: [Open. 】

Immediately, the dragon hair emitted a dazzling white light and began to spin rapidly.Then, the pool moved.They watched the pool slowly disappear from view, revealing a pipe so thick that a person could slip through it.

The entrance to the Chamber of Secrets appeared before them again.
