[HP] Illusion
Chapter 155
This is probably the most thrilling day since the entire Christmas holiday.
It stands to reason that Harry is on vacation, in such a nature, unless they encounter some natural disasters such as volcanic eruptions, forest fires, hurricanes that are rare in 500 years, or magical animals in the forest running away collectively*, otherwise their Traveling should be quite relaxing and comfortable. Anyway, the biggest advantage of independent travel is that you can control the location and rhythm, isn't it?
Of course, they really did this before this day, not to mention major disasters, not even minor disasters, and they brought back all the things they needed, and even abducted a young unicorn beast……
All this was disrupted by the appearance of Dumbledore's Patronus.
The old man's voice was tired and hoarse, and he really seemed to be troubled by something. As soon as Harry heard something wrong, he immediately avoided Snape and walked outside the cave.
"Please make sure that there is no one around you. This matter can only be known to you, and I can only entrust this matter to you." As soon as he left the cave, the old man's first words gave him a bad feeling .
Things are a bit troublesome. A while ago, Dumbledore destroyed Voldemort's deployment to disrupt the Halloween parade because he had obtained intelligence from his own spies. This made Voldemort suspect that there were traitors within his own side. He had been deploying an operation around Christmas. A few days ago, Dumbledore's spy also secretly told Dumbledore about this action, but because Dumbledore felt that Voldemort's action this time was a bit weird, the old man was actually very careful when deploying the response plan, but in the end he still After a hundred secrets, Voldemort still discovered some of his little tricks, and the problem actually came from these few days.
As soon as Dumbledore realized that something was wrong, his subordinate told him the fact that he seemed to be about to be exposed. Only then did Dumbledore confirm with this person that this incident was a trap set up by Voldemort.
If it was just to lure out the traitors behind, then of course things would not fall into the current situation, but the bad thing is that even if the traitors are found out, Voldemort will continue to complete this plan, so Dumbledore's side is in a dilemma. Huge passive.
It is not an easy task for one's own side to infiltrate the spies inside the Death Eaters. Hearing this, Harry also understands, because his own spies have not been completely exposed, and the identity of the traitor has not been directly locked, so Dumbledore He was trying to keep this spy who was finally lurking in the opponent's camp.
But Voldemort's plan is imminent, and the top priority now is to stop the Death Eaters before they cause more damage. Dumbledore has no way to come forward in person. He thought of a way, but the executor must be a powerful person. Take the role, and Harry is the best candidate Dumbledore can think of.
Although Harry was on vacation for a while, the Death Eaters had actually started a series of actions before then.The day before Harry and Snape set off, the situation in England had already begun to become chaotic. The Ministry of Magic and the Aurors seemed to be overwhelmed by this. Of course, Dumbledore, who organized the Order of the Phoenix, also fell into this situation. , but Dumbledore never came to look for Harry, so Harry just pretended not to know, and left this chaotic land with peace of mind and joy, and started his big harvest with little Snape journey of.
After roughly sorting out all the information, Harry made a decision.
Time passed by, and there were only two hours left before Voldemort's main plan was launched. Although Harry was surprised that Dumbledore came to him at such a critical moment, he didn't have time to think about it at this time. Because of the reason, before even saying goodbye to little Snape, he went directly to the Phoenix Patronus to tell him.
In fact, there are other reasons for not saying goodbye to little Snape. If you want to appease little Snape, it will inevitably take some time. Time is urgent, it is better to go back early, then in the remaining time, they and continue their journey.
It's just that Harry didn't expect that it would be almost midnight when he came back this way.When he came back, although he didn't have any serious injuries, his clothes were still cut a lot due to the fierce fighting, and he looked in a mess.
What he didn't expect was that little Snape would come to check on him while he was taking a bath.
Probably because Harry's wounds were very shallow this time, and he had healed after drinking a bottle of potion before he came back. Even the scars were erased by the trauma potion, so when little Snape came in, he It also seemed very calm.
"You haven't eaten, you haven't taken a bath yet, have you?" There was a sound of "stab", and the water splashed in all directions, lightly falling on Harry's face and body. The temperature was still a bit cold, and Harry was shaking all over. Shake it, and turn up the water temperature some more.
Little Snape's clothes were also wet by the splashing water. He took off his clothes silently, but kept his eyes on Harry's naked body without moving. Harry stepped aside a bit, Called little Snape over, and shared with him the hot water that could dispel the cold, "I guess so, you've been dealing with herbs, haven't you?"
"Where have you been?" Little Snape asked coldly.
"Little question, didn't I come back safely?" Harry tried his best to make his voice calm and natural.
Little Snape frowned tightly, the man was obviously not telling the truth, "You look very energetic."
Harry was stunned, thinking badly, so he confessed honestly: "I did drink some refreshments before, and I also went through a battle." The young man stopped here, and he didn't intend to give all the details. Explain together.
"This time the opponent was not as strong as last time, so I didn't get hurt too much. These cuts on my body seemed to be many, but I wore a lot of clothes, and I really didn't have many cuts," Harry said patiently. Comforting Snape, "The matter is over, we can continue our journey."
Little Snape looked at Harry's understatement, and always felt that something was wrong, but the young man did have serious wounds, not even a single bleeding wound, which meant that the young man might be telling the truth.
Also, the young man's face turned pale as if he hadn't lost too much blood last time. Generally speaking, the situation is still very good.
But little Snape was still skeptical: "The matter is over? Can we continue the journey? Are you serious?"
"There are not a few days left, we still have a lot of herbs to collect," Harry said vaguely, "The next thing over there has nothing to do with me, but we really have to go back before school starts, But didn’t we say before that we need to learn Apparation, maybe we don’t have this much time.” In fact, there is still time, but if we still have to teach Lily, then neither of us will be able to learn it, and little Snape is very smart , Maybe you can really learn it as soon as you learn it, just practice a few more times and you will be fine.
Harry roughly said the incident.Little Snape's expression was flat, and Harry couldn't tell what he was thinking, but this matter was unavoidable, so Lily shouldn't blame him either.
"This incident was not your fault," said little Snape. "Lily came back at about the same time as us, but she may have something else to do, so you don't have to blame yourself for this incident, right?"
"It seems to be like this." It's not that he has never done this kind of thing. In the past, little Snape's progress was so much ahead of Lily's because he didn't think about bringing his mother in at first, but later because of The friendship between Lily and Snape, and he couldn't resist the temptation...
"One more thing," the topic had already been diverted by Harry, and little Snape also understood that this man would not continue talking. "Is that Dumbledore's Patronus?"
"Yeah." Harry nodded with his new gait, the foam on his body had been rinsed off, but the hot water was too comfortable, so he didn't want to leave, he just wanted to rinse more, and then again.
Little Snape had already washed himself at this time, he saw the calluses on Harry's fingers turned white, so he immediately turned off the water, and brought the towel and bathrobe beside him for the young man to put on.
"Can the patron saint deliver messages?"
"That's true," Harry whispered, "but not everyone can do it." At least no one among the Death Eaters can successfully launch
"What about you?" Snape asked suddenly.
"Ok?"
"What is your Patronus form?" Little Snape asked.
Harry hesitated before saying, "Stag, mine is a stag."
Little Snape lowered his eyes, "You never seem to have taught me this."
"I guess so." Harry covered his head with a large snow-white towel, his voice sounded a little illusory and distorted through the towel, "but I thought..." Harry's voice suddenly disappeared.
Little Snape made a questioning sound.
Harry said slowly: "I remember that when you first got your wand, you released the shapeless Patronus form, so I thought you should have learned it over the years. So, don't you?"
Little Snape drew a long tone slowly, "I have indeed learned it."
"Huh?" Harry's head popped out of the towel suddenly, his wet hair was messy, his thin face was smothered red, and his skin looked unusually good. "You also have a physical patron saint? What form is it, a bat?"
Little Snape: "..."
After a long while, he found his own voice: "Why is it a bat?"
Harry, who realized what he said, was a little embarrassed for a moment: "... I guessed it casually, you can conjure a physical Patronus, which is very good, very good."
Although he never imagined that little Snape conjured up his own Patronus without anyone's guidance, well, this person has always been smarter than him, of course...he changed in the third grade come out.Come to think of it, Harry was still a little complacent.
"Then can we use the patron saint to talk?" Although he didn't understand the characteristics of the patron saint's call, the method that Dumbledore could use was probably safer and more private than the owl, which was what he wanted.
"It's better not," Harry said without thinking, "It's better not to let others know that you have been able to release the Patronus."
"why?"
"Because..." Harry racked his brains for a while, and finally came up with a reason: "Because you don't need it yet, the biggest function of the Patronus is to drive away the dementors, you have to keep your hand, don't show it easily come out."
Looking at Harry's expression, little Snape couldn't help asking, "Are you serious?"
"Of course," Harry blinked, "Maybe one day, you will be thankful that you didn't expose your patron saint. No one knows what will happen in the future. What I said is true, people must Keep one hand."
"Then which hand did you keep?"
Harry: "...asking this way, isn't it good, this is a question left behind?"
"Even I can't tell?" Little Snape chased after him.
"No," Harry said hesitantly, "The one I kept, I also dabbled in the dark arts."
Little Snape: "..."
"Isn't this normal? You once told me that there is actually no difference between black magic and white magic." Little Snape quietly recovered his voice, "The key is to see where they are used."
"I didn't expect you to remember." Harry couldn't help but let out a sigh.
Little Snape's voice suddenly became louder, and it sounded like he was emphasizing a few words: "Of course I remember, I remember everything you said. Besides, isn't this what you have always wanted to tell me? I also have research Black magic, but I don't want to use it to harm anything, I can use it to protect myself, and I can also protect the people I want to protect."
So this person is not telling the truth.
Little Snape thought unhappily, what exactly is this man's hand?
He should indeed keep a hand, but it is not the patron saint, but how to keep this person by his side.No matter where he went in the future, he would be able to find this person back.
Harry asked casually, "Who do you want to protect?" Lily?
Little Snape: "..."
"Okay," Harry said, looking at young Snape's flushed face, "when I..."
"You." Little Snape replied succinctly.
Harry: "..."
He found that his face was a little hot. He had been protected by this person many times before, but this person never said a word.
——It seems that I have been molested, is there any reason? !
"That's great," Harry said with a smile, "I really didn't feed you for nothing."
Little Snape: "..."
This topic seems to be getting a little weird, what is it all about!
☆☆☆
The two of them ended their trip two days later, and they returned to Cokeworth full of bags and bags. Lily came back a day earlier than them.
At this time, there were only three days before the start of school, and Harry had to rush back to Hogwarts for a teacher meeting, and then prepare for the new school.
And little Snape stayed in Cokeworth to continue sorting out the herbs they collected, the cellar was divided into a larger space for storage, and Harry went back before the teacher's meeting, which he hadn't seen for a long time. Go to the office, and put the part of the herbs that Snape has processed from home here, and use it as a distribution warehouse.
Rao is only part of it, and it almost fills half of his living room, which looks extremely spectacular.
Anyone who enters his office at this time can only smell the smell of herbs.
After Harry placed the things, he took out the meeting materials that he had prepared all night before. Unexpectedly, he was the first one to arrive, and Dumbledore was the second one.
When the old man saw him, he was a little dazed. He took the initiative to say hello, and the old man waved his hand, but there was still no smile on his face.
"Edward, after the meeting, can you come back to the office with me?" This person disappeared after leaving that day, but he received a message from this person saying that he would definitely return to Hogg before school started. Watts, told him not to look for him, so the two did not meet these days, and Dumbledore also needed time to consider and settle the development of things and think about the future direction.
"No problem." Harry nodded, "I'll talk about it later if there are any problems."
Apparently, the two agreed on this point, and within half a minute after the two stopped, the other professors filed in. Finally, when Slughorn entered, the meeting was officially started.
Harry stayed after the teachers' meeting as Dumbledore asked, and the two of them came to the principal's office together after the others left.
This place was familiar to Harry, and when Fox came in, he shook his head towards it as a way of saying hello.
Harry also smiled at the fiery red phoenix, but after the door was closed, the atmosphere in the office was obviously not as relaxed as imagined, and even a bit heavy. Even so, the young man didn't intend to speak first, he knew that the old man I want to ask him something, and he also knows that he has done a lot of things that make the other party questionable, so these days he is constantly thinking about what parts to tell the old man so that he can deal with the old man's problems.
As soon as the old man opened his mouth, he immediately said, "Why did you expose yourself in front of the Death Eaters?"
This was the first time Harry heard a hint of exasperation in Dumbledore's voice, but soon the old man's voice stabilized. He adjusted his half-moon glasses, let out a slow breath, and spoke hoarsely. Throat said: "I want you to know that this will get you into a series of troubles."
Harry shrugged his shoulders with a calm expression on his face: "The matter has come to this point, and I have been exposed, and I don't think it's a big deal. As a Hogwarts Defense Against the Dark Arts professor who likes to travel, I happened to pass by Encountered such a scene, and 'accidentally' got involved in such a battle, it is only natural for me to want to save people, there is nothing to dispute."
For a moment, Dumbledore suffocated. The matter was under his control. Although his desperate move had the expected effect, unexpected changes also appeared.
The only variable is that this person appears in front of him.
So will things get further out of his control?Dumbledore hadn't fully digested this matter yet. The young man applied for the job. He took a fancy to the strength of the other party and wanted to keep him to help him. In fact, this person has not yet fully entered the Order of the Phoenix. A powerful foreign aid was invited—but the performance of this person after entering Hogwarts has kept him puzzled, which is why he has not found the young man for a long time. Even if this person is strong enough, this person has never Everything from identity to ability is a secret, and even the position is not so clear.
But judging from this incident, the youth seems to have plans of their own.
What is this man trying to do?Do you want to use Hogwarts and him as a springboard to get in touch with Voldemort, or use this method to get close to Voldemort?But from the perspective of the former, such a plan is too circuitous. It is better to contact the Death Eaters directly, and it is easier to gain Voldemort's trust. Why should he come to his own side first, and put his own label first?
At this moment, the old man even wanted to ask, are you dissatisfied with my plan, but he tried to slip out the words several times, but he swallowed them back in the end.
"That's what I think," Harry said in a particularly circumstantial manner, "Hogwarts should be in a 'neutral' state all year round, so there's nothing wrong with me doing this, right?"
The old man was a little confused by his strong words. In fact, he had thought about it these days, but what he didn't expect was that this young man said it so brazenly, and he didn't even seem to care what he would do. What kind of trouble is it that makes him kind of...
So he should re-examine this young man.
"Are you sure you want to use this explanation?"
"Anywhere can be justified, if one day I really run into trouble."
"So..." the old man rubbed the crooked bridge of his nose, "Even taking out the potion to save the other party's members, was that what you thought about it from the beginning?"
"No such thing," Harry denied, "I thought the man looked familiar, and then I found out that the man had long platinum blonde hair."
"Platinum?" The old man said in surprise, "You mean..."
Harry thought for a while: "Maybe the other party also drank the Polyjuice Potion like us."
The old man twitched his mouth. He obviously had arranged for the young man to drink compound decoction, but this time the man didn't drink it at all... That's why he disrupted his plan.
"Did you save him just because of the excuse you said?"
"I passed by, and I was in a neutral state. I'll hit anyone who hits me, right?" Harry said naturally.
elder:"……"
The more Harry talked, the more he felt that this was a perfect excuse, completely ignoring the old man's dumbfounded, "how did this person's brain circuit grow?" gaze.
"so……"
"That's it?" Harry looked at the old man with piercing eyes.
It stands to reason that Harry is on vacation, in such a nature, unless they encounter some natural disasters such as volcanic eruptions, forest fires, hurricanes that are rare in 500 years, or magical animals in the forest running away collectively*, otherwise their Traveling should be quite relaxing and comfortable. Anyway, the biggest advantage of independent travel is that you can control the location and rhythm, isn't it?

Even so, the young man didn't intend to speak first, he knew that the old man I want to ask him something, and he also knows that he has done a lot of things that make the other party questionable, so these days he is constantly thinking about what parts to tell the old man so that he can deal with the old man's problems.
As soon as the old man opened his mouth, he immediately said, "Why did you expose yourself in front of the Death Eaters?"
This was the first time Harry heard a hint of exasperation in Dumbledore's voice, but soon the old man's voice stabilized. He adjusted his half-moon glasses, let out a slow breath, and spoke hoarsely. Throat said: "I want you to know that this will get you into a series of troubles."
Harry shrugged his shoulders with a calm expression on his face: "The matter has come to this point, and I have been exposed, and I don't think it's a big deal. As a Hogwarts Defense Against the Dark Arts professor who likes to travel, I happened to pass by Encountered such a scene, and 'accidentally' got involved in such a battle, it is only natural for me to want to save people, there is nothing to dispute."
For a moment, Dumbledore suffocated. The matter was under his control. Although his desperate move had the expected effect, unexpected changes also appeared.
The only variable is that this person appears in front of him.
So will things get further out of his control?Dumbledore hadn't fully digested this matter yet. The young man applied for the job. He took a fancy to the strength of the other party and wanted to keep him to help him. In fact, this person has not yet fully entered the Order of the Phoenix. A powerful foreign aid was invited—but the performance of this person after entering Hogwarts has kept him puzzled, which is why he has not found the young man for a long time. Even if this person is strong enough, this person has never Everything from identity to ability is a secret, and even the position is not so clear.
But judging from this incident, the youth seems to have plans of their own.
What is this man trying to do?Do you want to use Hogwarts and him as a springboard to get in touch with Voldemort, or use this method to get close to Voldemort?But from the perspective of the former, such a plan is too circuitous. It is better to contact the Death Eaters directly, and it is easier to gain Voldemort's trust. Why should he come to his own side first, and put his own label first?
At this moment, the old man even wanted to ask, are you dissatisfied with my plan, but he tried to slip out the words several times, but he swallowed them back in the end.
"That's what I think," Harry said in a particularly circumstantial manner, "Hogwarts should be in a 'neutral' state all year round, so there's nothing wrong with me doing this, right?"
The old man was a little confused by his strong words. In fact, he had thought about it these days, but what he didn't expect was that this young man said it so brazenly, and he didn't even seem to care what he would do. What kind of trouble is it that makes him kind of...
So he should re-examine this young man.
"Are you sure you want to use this explanation?"
"Anywhere can be justified, if one day I really run into trouble."
"So..." the old man rubbed the crooked bridge of his nose, "Even taking out the potion to save the other party's members, was that what you thought about it from the beginning?"
"No such thing," Harry denied, "I thought the man looked familiar, and then I found out that the man had long platinum blonde hair."
"Platinum?" The old man said in surprise, "You mean..."
Harry thought for a while: "Maybe the other party also drank the Polyjuice Potion like us."
The old man twitched his mouth. He obviously had arranged for the young man to drink compound decoction, but this time the man didn't drink it at all... That's why he disrupted his plan.
"Did you save him just because of the excuse you said?"
"I passed by, and I was in a neutral state. I'll hit anyone who hits me, right?" Harry said naturally.
elder:"……"
The more Harry talked, the more he felt that this was a perfect excuse, completely ignoring the old man's dumbfounded, "how did this person's brain circuit grow?" gaze.
"so……"
"That's it?" Harry looked at the old man with piercing eyes.
