HP's Wretched

"So, Severus, has Lord Voldemort any message for me?" Dumbledore stood before Snape, his robes fluttering, his face glowing in the light from his wand.

"No...no message." Snape looked at what he had been waiting for all night, his last straw - Dumbledore, "I came here on my own business."

Snape rubbed his hands, his messy black hair fluttered in the wind, he looked a little crazy, his usual cadence and haughty tone, but now he said pleadingly: "I... I came here to warn, no , is a request... please."

Dumbledore flicked his wand, although the leaves and branches kept rustling in the night wind, but the place where they stood facing each other was very quiet, he asked coldly: "What would a Death Eater ask me to do? "

"That, that prophecy... that prophecy that Trelawney said..."

"Ah, yes," said Dumbledore, "how much did you tell Voldemort about that prophecy?"

Hearing this question, Snape seemed to hesitate for a moment, and said, "All I've heard, that's why, that's why! He wants Lily Evans!"

"That prophecy said no woman," said Dumbledore, "only a boy born at the end of July."

"You know what I mean! He thinks that's her son, and he's going to get her and kill them all!"

"If she is so important to you," Dumbledore said contemptuously, "then Voldemort will definitely spare her. Can you not plead for her, in exchange for her son?"

"I... I did, that's what I begged him to do."

"You disgust me," said Dumbledore, the first time Dumbledore had uttered such a disgusted tone.

Snape's body trembled, and his eyes gradually froze, as if he remembered something.

"You don't care about the lives of her husband and son, do you? If they die, you get what you want?" Dumbledore reprimanded in a mocking tone.

Snape said nothing, just looked straight at Dumbledore.He didn't know what to say, and he was powerless to refute, because every word and sentence Dumbledore said was deeply engraved on his heart like a knife, and he didn't even have the chance to refuse or escape.Snape was still staring blankly at Dumbledore, as if he had seen and heard what Flott stood in front of him that day and said: Severus, have you ever thought that you only saved Lily Potter? If her son and her husband are dead, she will really live a good life as you think, and won't take revenge on the Death Eaters?Won't it become like me—a lunatic who only knows revenge?

"Then hide them!" He said in a hoarse voice, yes, he decided, what he wanted was not just for Lily to live, but what he wanted was for Lily to live happily, "Keep her—their safety , please!"

"So what can you do for me in return, Severus?"

"Return...return?" Snape looked at the greatest wizard of this century, looking at the opponent of his own camp, he should refuse, but after a long time, Snape said, " I can do anything."

Dumbledore's azure eyes stared at Snape, and the expression on his face gradually let go of the disgust just now, returning to his usual peacefulness, and said, "Okay, very good, Severus, you did it right once. s Choice."

Hearing these words, the stone in Snape's heart also fell to the ground. He just got the guarantee from the greatest wizard in the world, even if he had to give everything, he would be willing.But at this moment, his clenched fist suddenly clenched again, as if he had thought of something important, and said hastily, "I have something else to ask you."

Dumbledore didn't speak, but motioned for Snape to continue.

"Please act as soon as possible!"

"They are members of the Order of the Phoenix, and I will definitely protect them as soon as possible. Has Voldemort already started to act?"

Snape nodded and continued: "He has indeed already started to act, but that's only one of the reasons. The other reason is because there is one person who might be involved in this matter, and I don't want to implicate her."

"Her? Is this person going to kill the prophesied boy too?"

"No, it's not." Snape didn't want to say anything, just denied and said nothing else.

Dumbledore could see that Snape wanted to conceal the person and related matters in his mouth, that is, the so-called non-involvement, so he didn't ask any further questions, and just nodded his head as agreement.

……

"Mrs. Luster, I will confirm the distribution of your estate with you again." The goblin in Gringotts said while standing on a special table holding a document.

Flotte, who was sitting at the bottom, half-closed her eyes, leaned against the back of the sofa and nodded lazily.

"After your death, according to your wishes, your property will be distributed as follows: 15.00% of the potion industry you hold will be distributed to Mr. Severus Snape, and 5.00% will be distributed to your Sister Orion Buford, the remaining 5.00% will be distributed to your godson Draco Malfoy, and his father, Lucius Malfoy, has no right to interfere with the [-]% of the shares."

Flote nodded, motioning for the goblin to continue talking.

"All of your Gringotts deposits will be donated to St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Wounded, and the invisible estate of the Lusters, which you have inherited, will be donated to..."

The goblin was about to say the name of the organization behind it, but was interrupted by Flotte's gesture not to say it. Although they were in the Gringotts VIP private room, if the customer wanted to keep it secret, the goblin They will still follow.

"By the way, I almost forgot, and this." Flotte took out a small bottle containing a pale golden liquid from her pocket, "Give this potion to my sister Orion after I die. "

The goblin came down from the table, and swiftly handed over the potion to the servant at the side, asking him to keep it, and confirmed the will with Fluote again: "Madam, do you want to finalize the content of the will?"

"Sure." Flotte affirmed, then looked up at the night sky outside the window, saw a bright round moon hanging in the dark night like a curtain, and said with a smile, "The moon is really round tonight." ..."

……

"Mr. Malfoy, I have checked all the books of our potion industry, and there is no problem." The manager of the potion main store respectfully faced Lucius Marr who was sitting at the table and drinking tea leisurely. Fu said.

Lucius Malfoy took a sip of his tea, and said leisurely, "Then why is St. Mungo's stock [-]% more than usual?"

"This batch of goods is also clearly remembered in the ledger. It was indeed purchased by St. Mungo's Hospital. It seems that the number of casualties has increased recently, so it was purchased. Mrs. Luster clearly marked it in the ledger."

"Heh." Malfoy put down his teacup and sneered, "The increase in the number of casualties is really a good reason. The extra batch of goods are all high-end potions. I don't think that group of poor ghosts in St. Mungo's Hospital Affordable. What the hell is Flote Luster doing behind his back!"

"Do you want to arrest the one named Sibney Brown (the Muggle who eloped with Flott's second sister) who is helping Mrs. Luster's account?" the store manager suggested.

Lucius Malfoy glared at the store manager in displeasure, and said angrily: "Arrested? Why are you arrested? Do you have evidence? Use your brains when you do things in the future! Since there is nothing found in the ledger Come on, have you checked the order records made in that factory?"

"Also checked, no problem."

Lucius Malfoy's brows were slightly frowned, and he was a little bit guilty. Based on his years of experience in business, he told him that the extra goods from St. Mungoli could not be all right, so the woman Flotte Luster What exactly do you want to do?Could it be that he was guarding himself?So where are all the things she stole sold?He knew that when Flotte rushed to take care of the account, she absolutely had no good intentions!

"Mr. Malfoy, do you think... Could it be that the extra shipment from St. Mungo's... was secretly supplied... to the Order of the Phoenix?" The store manager's voice became smaller and smaller, even In the end, the three words "Order of the Phoenix" only had the sound of a mosquito.

"Pfft." Lucius Malfoy was amused by the store manager's words, and then looked at the store manager mockingly and said, "Do you think that with the character of a woman like Flote Luster, she will help Is the Order of the Phoenix cutting off its own source of income?"

The store manager thought about the few times he saw Mrs. Luster. Every time the lady was covered in furs, and there were no fewer gold, silver and jewelry on her body. It didn't look like she was willing to hang her life The person who opposed the Dark Lord smiled flatteringly at Lucius Malfoy and said, "I don't think so. The lady should be a greedy person but aware of current affairs. It is impossible to oppose His Highness."

"Anyway, let me find out about this batch of goods!" He, Lucius, wanted to see what kind of tricks Flotte was playing this time. What he hated the most was this kind of self-stealing and dirty hands and feet, etc. He got the handle, and everything in her hand had to be handed over.

……

The second day of the night of the full moon was the most painful time for Remus Lupine. The soreness of muscle cracking and bone repositioning always made Lupine so painful that he couldn't get out of bed, and he had to lie down for a long time. Last day, but today, not only did he not feel any pain, he even felt as refreshed as if he had been massaged.

Just when Lupine sat up from the bed and wondered about the difference today, a knock on the door broke Lupine's thoughts, and the person outside the door shouted: "Remus Lupine, someone is looking for you outside, come out quickly!"

As soon as he heard that someone was looking for him, Lupine hurriedly picked up the clothes that were put aside and put them on. After tidying up, he got down from the rented bed. Yes, he is not in his own home now, but an extremely A special hotel, the special thing about this hotel is that it can only be rented by special people--werewolves.

Remus Lupine washed up briefly, and was about to open the door to see who actually came here to look for him.But the moment he opened the door, the person sitting outside the door was not Sirius Black, nor James Potter, nor anyone in the Order of the Phoenix. Noble woman.

Remus Lupine took a closer look at the woman's face. There was a hint of familiarity but more unfamiliarity. He asked suspiciously, "Who are you?"

"Long time no see, old classmate." The woman stood up from her chair with a smile on her face, walked up to Lupin and said, "I'm in the same class as you, a Slytherin student, my name is Flote Le ster."

"Flot Luster?"

"I forgot, my maiden name was Buford, Flotte Buford."

Flott Buford!As soon as he said this name, Lupine instantly recalled the extremely difficult Slytherin girl who knew his secret when he was a student. However, she seemed to have dropped out of school in the fifth grade. Why did she find him here today? .

Flotte could see the doubt and guard on Lupine's face, so she still smiled gently and said, "How about it, you don't feel uncomfortable this morning."

Lupine shook his head, and looked at Flotte more warily, what on earth was she looking for him for.

"Last night, I asked someone to add some advanced painkillers to your water." Flott said.

Hearing these words, Remus Lupine broke out in a cold sweat, and was... adding medicine to his water!Remus Lupine's hand secretly grasped the cuffed wand and asked, "What are you going to do?"

Flott could see Lupine's nervousness, but she also knew that Lupine was not an impulsive Gryffindor, which was why Flott wanted to find an entry point from him.In order for Lupine to let go of his guard and help the conversation, Flotte softened her expression and said, "I'm just a widow, what can I do, I just want to ask you for a favor."

"help?"

"Yes, just do me a favor." Flotte said straight to the point, "You also know that the mysterious man has been chasing and killing the Potters, right?"

Lupine looked Flotte up and down, asking for help why this matter was brought up and what to do.Lupine didn't reply to Flott, but just stared at her, waiting for her next words.

"I was entrusted by someone to help protect Mrs. Potter."

"Entrusted by someone? Who?"

"I can't say this, but I owe him a favor, so I made an oath with him. The content of the oath is to protect Mrs. Potter, so I hope you will take me to see her."

Of course Remus Lupine wouldn't believe that, let alone whether the person in front of him was a Death Eater, just because of her personality, Lupine didn't think that the person in front of him would be a kind person to protect the Order of the Phoenix.So he refused, "Why should I believe that you didn't work for the Death Eaters? How did you find this place?"

"I don't have a Death Eater mark on me. As for how to find you, you forgot that you used to work in Buford's house all the time, so it's not difficult to find out where you are, not to mention that you have to get Here."

Lupine had indeed worked in the Buford family for a long time. He even thought he had found a long-term job, but he never expected that his most respected senior would use him to prompt the entire Anderson family to be exterminated by Death Eaters!He left there with remorse, but he had always wondered why Senior Sibney knew his identity in the Order of the Phoenix, but today Flott stood here, everything was explained.Lupine quickly pulled out the wand from his cuff, pointed straight at Flott, and said angrily, "It was you, you were the one who asked Sibney Brown to let me go to Anderson's house to buy potions, and framed their family."

Seeing Lupine's excited look, Flotte was not too nervous, after all, she was mentally prepared for coming, not to mention a Slytherin who was more or less involved with the Death Eaters, just People who usually stand here alone and say that they will protect the Order of the Phoenix at the risk of being chased and killed by Death Eaters may not be believed by anyone, not to mention that standing in front of Flotte is one of the few intelligent Gryffindors (Flott). Lott thinks), what is this called, not afraid of reckless, but afraid of reckless people with brains.No, Lupine guessed what had happened, and began to question her.Of course, Flotte also has her own shameless coping strategies.

Flotte looked at Lupin, her eyes slowly began to sore, her eye sockets gradually turned red, and her voice became choked up. That's right, she drank the weeping potion she had prepared beforehand. Can come soft.Flotte began to sob and said, "We have nothing to do, do you know why my sister became a living dead?"

Lu Ping looked at the crying person in front of him, and the sudden turn of events made Lu Ping at a loss.

"It was all caused by the Andersons! Seeing my father died, they teamed up with the Death Eaters to swallow the Bufords' house together, and fed poison to Orion, making her a comatose living dead. We have no choice, we don't want to be killed by the Death Eaters, we can only find a way to make the Anderson family turn against the Death Eaters, if they don't die, we die." Flotte became more and more excited as she made up nonsense, crying just right, Although Flotte's appearance is not a beauty, and she is somewhat delicate, but those big eyes and a face as thin as a palm, with tear stains and pretending to be pitiful, the effect is surprisingly good. His face immediately pretended to be murdered, "Although the Anderson family is gone, we don't have a good life. The Buford family's property is still swallowed up by the Death Eaters, but fortunately, it took a life. I swear to that man now , it was the man who promised to wake up my sister and let her return to a normal life, so I agreed to protect Mrs. Potter at the risk of being killed by Death Eaters."

Normally, Flotte didn't feel much guilt when she did bad things. Although all the things she made up today were lies, at least the purpose was to protect Mrs. Potter, and it was a good thing to save someone's life, let alone I felt a little guilty, so I was so pitiful and confused black and white.Flotte herself admired her crocodile-like tears.

Lupine seemed to be moved by Flott, he was already frightened by Flott who was crying so hard that he couldn't help himself, not to mention that the damn sympathy was completely overwhelmed by Flott's fabricated story. It's all under control, and the wand in his hand is not as straight as it was just raised.

Flott saw that Lupine was hesitating a little bit, so she stepped up even more, crying: "I can't help it, I only know you, and I can only find you, I know my identity, you can't rest assured , but no matter what, I can make an oath, even an unbreakable oath!"

Lupine hesitated even more. After all, the Unbreakable Oath is indeed the best way to ensure the safety of everything. If this Buford can really help the Potters, that would be a good thing.Thinking of this, Lupine's hand holding the wand slowly dropped.

Just when Flote felt grateful for her success, she suddenly felt a murderous aura around her.When she regained her senses and leaned back, a red light just wiped away from her eyes, and even the hair on the side of her face was cut off a little.

Flotte immediately slid out the wand from her cuff and began to resist the sudden attack.She kept cursing in her heart: I will succeed soon, where is this mad dog!When she regained her senses and looked at the person, she had to lament that her timing might not be right.
