HP's Wretched

Ever since Colin was attacked and petrified, the whole school was in a state of panic. Even though the professors tried their best to control the spread of the incident, they couldn't stop the spread of fear.Every professor is doing their best to complete the tasks assigned by the principal, including Flotte, who is currently sitting in the teachers' common room, and is still copying materials in her hands.

A gust of wind blew through, and the door of the lounge was pushed open, revealing Snape with an angry face behind him.

Flote put down the quill in her hand, raised her head and asked with concern: "You are really late after class today. Judging by your expression, something must have happened."

"What a terrible Thursday. A pot of thick swelling solution exploded in the classroom, spraying half the students. Guess what caused the explosion?"

"Are those children okay?" Flott was still more concerned about the safety of the students, although she knew that Snape must have dealt with this to end get out of class so late.

"They're so good, they've used up all my stock of detumescence potions."

"Tsk tsk, it looks like you have to add some more medicine. You haven't told me what caused it."

"Firecrackers and Potter!" Snape said the two words very clearly, emphasizing on "Potter", and then continued sarcastically after a tactical pause, "Our Boy Who Lived can always use his brains Used in this kind of innovation, but he just doesn't want to learn more."

"Have you caught it?"

"No."

"Then how are you sure it was the kid who did it?"

Snape sneered disdainfully: "The way he looks is exactly the same as his father's after doing bad things!"

This reason is really not surprising, Flotte sighed: "Sometimes you know James Potter really scares me, you know more than me."

"Don't worry, Flotte, I also know your trouble-making ability."

Flott gave Snape a sideways look helplessly, and continued to ask, "Why did Harry do this?"

"What else is there to implement his so-called punishment of evil and promotion of good? I really can't find any other reason for this prank."

However, if another two days pass, Snape will definitely find out that this is not just a prank, but an organized and strategic cover operation - to cover Miss Granger from stealing his precious collection, which unfortunately turned into Maolian was lying in the school hospital waiting to be treated.Through this incident, Snape once again refreshed his understanding of the trio.

"Don't think about it yet, I'm afraid I already know what kind of monster is in the Chamber of Secrets." Flotte tried to bring the topic back on track, and she handed the half-written information to Snape, "This is I, Mrs. Pingsi, searched for a long time to find the information: basilisk, a kind of basilisk. This kind of basilisk has a very long life span and can grow to a huge size. Not only its fangs can kill people, but its eyes can also kill people. I The reason why Colin is only petrified is that he should have photographed it instead of seeing it with his own eyes, which also explains why the camera was destroyed."

"It seems that the rumored Chamber of Secrets should be very huge, otherwise it wouldn't be able to accommodate such a giant python." Snape frowned and said, "Did you tell Dumbledore about your discovery?"

Flotte sighed, stretched out her hand and pinched the bridge of her nose, and said wearily, "I've looked for him, but he hasn't come back yet, he should still be dealing with the school directors."

"Lucius will definitely think this is a good opportunity to get Dumbledore off his horse." Snape folded the documents and put them back on the table, then pulled a chair over and sat down, said firmly, with a serious expression on his face, "He will definitely not miss this opportunity."

"It's not a good thing to say, don't be angry when you hear it." Flott turned her body and rushed towards Snape, her expression was somewhat indescribable, "Seriously, if I didn't want to get the Philosopher's Stone, maybe this time I'm really going to help Lucius when I'm down, isn't my idea terrible."

Snape didn't seem surprised by this, he raised his eyebrows and said, "I'm not surprised that you have such an idea, but with me around, I definitely won't let you do it, troublemaker."

Tsk, you say it as if I must listen to you, but as a kind and considerate girl, I won't expose you.Flott smiled bluntly, gave Snape a supercilious look, and said, "Of course I believe, I can't afford to waste your persistence. But having said that, I always feel that Dumbledore should know something."

"what do you know?"

"He left me that day and asked me if I had found any traces of the Dark Lord. But he had never asked before, and he didn't even care about it at all, but he suddenly asked me under the circumstances that day, I think……"

"You think Dumbledore thinks that this matter will have something to do with the Dark Lord?" Snape naturally helped Flott complete the words.

Flote nodded, hoping that she was too sensitive, or that Dumbledore was thinking too much.

"But what if..." Before Snape finished speaking, the door of the lounge was pushed open again, and the person who appeared behind the door was something neither of them wanted to see - Lockhart,

"It's really not easy to find you." Lockhart was still wearing his lavender and lavender wizard robes. To be honest, if he wasn't so annoying, Flott would definitely praise him for his taste in choosing clothes .

"Thank you, Professor Lockhart." Flott said in her contrived tone.

Snape, who himself was interrupted, felt very upset, and seeing that the person who interrupted him was the guy he hated the most, his face suddenly darkened: "I believe Professor Lockhart, there must be something important Things." He said in a slurred word.

"It is indeed very important, especially to you, my dear Potions Master." Lockhart leaked his perfect smile, but in Snape's eyes there was nothing but a beating, "We all know that now is During the extraordinary period, students need the ability to protect themselves, so I applied to the school to start a dueling club, and I will teach everyone the skills of self-protection, and I need an assistant, so I specially invite you, Professor Snape."

"Duel Club?" Flotte repeated with some sarcasm. Seriously, ever since she witnessed this man's bone removal spell, she deeply thought that pulling Hermione Granger over could make this liar fly.This dueling club is definitely not as good as the jinx practice in Slytherin.

"Yes, this must be a popular idea, and it has been approved. Professor Snape, you see this is a good opportunity." Lockhart still had that sunny expression.

Snape felt that it was a humiliation for him to fight this liar, so he refused with a little disgust: "You can go to Professor Flitwick, he is a champion fighter, and the children will at least learn something from him. .” The implication is that you can’t teach anything.

"Fighting champions, children can't learn to this level." Lockhart tactfully made an excuse for himself, but everyone knew that he didn't dare to confront the champion, "Ah, I see, you must I'm afraid I might hurt you, Professor Snape, but you can rest assured that I will control my strength."

"What did you say?" Flott couldn't believe that Lockhart thought that Snape didn't go up because he was afraid of getting hurt. Merlin, who gave you the courage?

"I know your specialty is potions, but don't worry, I will control the intensity so that you don't suffer any harm." Lockhart thought he picked a soft persimmon, but he made the worst one.

Flotte looked into his eyes now as if she was looking at a dead person. To be honest, she originally wanted to persuade Snape to take over the job and deal with the liar, but now she doesn't need to make trouble. What an amazing man.

"Unfortunately, I know a lot about fighting and Defense Against the Dark Arts. Is it tonight?"

"No, it's Thursday next week at eight o'clock. I'm so glad you're here."

Ha, wait until next week and you won't be happy that Snape will agree.Flotte slandered in her heart.

Lockhart originally wanted to talk about something more, but he wasn't completely incapable of observing words and expressions. It was obvious that his appearance just now interrupted the secret conversation between these two. Now that the person has been found, he will stop disturbing.

After Lockhart went out completely and closed the door, Flotte said quietly: "Someone will be unlucky next Thursday, I'm really looking forward to it."

"This is the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor that Dumbledore was looking for. He didn't even give me the position, but this coward."

"Judging from the unlucky tradition of this position, I'm glad I didn't give it to you." Flotte looked at Snape sideways with her chin in her hands, speaking in a soft voice, "Do you remember that we went to France to steal the Holy Grail?" ? I was hit against the wall and fell into the glass."

"Remember." Snape felt that Flott was about to come up with some bad idea, and usually the worse it was, the happier she smiled.

Flott smiled coquettishly at Snape, and said softly and maliciously: "Just throw him with that strength next week."

……

Although the long-awaited Thursday arrived, the long-awaited letter came before the evening duel lesson.

Flotte took the letter and came in front of Medusa, the guardian portrait of the potion office. She raised her eyebrows and was about to speak, but Medusa opened the door by herself. Could it be that Medusa was really conquered by her?Hard work pays off.

In fact, the truth is that Medusa saw Flotte coming from a long distance, and hurriedly asked her master's opinion, and then let her go at the speed of light. To be honest, she has become a sounding board since her master and Flotte got into trouble that time... ... She is really scared.

"What are you looking for, you rummaging through chests and chests?" Upon entering the door, Flott saw Snape counting the medicinal materials in his collection.

Snape temporarily put down the notebook in his hand, and said, "I lost some herbs."

"What medicinal materials?"

"Compound decoction. Those were originally stored in the medicinal material warehouse, but now they are a little less. I thought I brought them back, but I didn't."

"Perhaps your memory is wrong. I have secretly tracked the letter from the Club, and I may have found the Dark Lord's trace." Flott handed the envelope in her hand to Snape.

Snape held up the envelope, looked at it briefly and asked, "Have you not opened it yet?"

"Of course I'm waiting for you, don't you feel honored?"

Snape glanced at the envelope again, then sneered, and opened it without hesitation: "It must be because you don't have enough mana to open it, otherwise you would have opened it long ago, why would you wait for me."

"An elegant gentleman will never tear down any lady. Obviously, you are not."

"It's about the facts." Snape didn't want to argue with Flott anymore, or they would have to argue for a while, so he took out his wand, tapped on the letter, and put the magic The oil seal was completely destroyed, then opened and the letter paper inside was pulled out.

But the strange thing is that what was pulled out of the envelope was not just a piece of paper, but a pile of golden powder, which seemed to be weightless, floating in the air, or waiting for something in the air, and then As more and more gold foam floated out of the envelope, they gradually rotated regularly in the air and attracted together, and after a while, they actually formed the shape of a person.

"What does this flashy method want to express, can't it just be written on letter paper?" Snape didn't trust this method at first, but now he pulled out a blank piece of paper and the pompous words that filled the entire office The golden powder is even more disgusting.

After all, Flotte is a regular customer here, so she knows something, but it's the first time she saw her: "I'm afraid it's not that simple this time, I..."

Before Flott could finish speaking, the human-shaped golden powder actually spoke: "Mrs. Luster, Mr. Snape, good afternoon. Sorry to report the situation of this mission to you in this way, But the direction of the mission really took us by surprise.”

"what happened?"

"We tracked it based on the trace of magic on the finger you provided, but what is unexpected is that the owner of the magic is still alive, in other words, the magic on that finger does not belong to Quirinus Qi Luo, it belongs to another person." The person formed by the golden powder has no facial features, only a horizontal slit on the face, which should be counted as a mouth.

Of course Flott and Snape knew that the magic trace did not belong to Quirrell, because they were not looking for Quirrell, but the Dark Lord, but they must not show that they knew, because Voldemort's name was too terrifying .The two looked at each other, and they had countermeasures in their hearts.

"Merlin, why does he have traces of other people's magic on his body!" Of course, it was up to Flott to pretend to be stupid.

"We don't know exactly, because there are many ways to achieve this result."

Snape turned his hands behind his back, straightened his back, and looked calm, but his tone was a little tentative: "Then have you found out who the magic traces belong to?"

"This trace is both weak and indescribably powerful. We can't determine who it is. But according to your request, we tracked it, and the result is also very strange. This magical trace appears in many places, and Every place shows that the person with this magical aura is still alive, in general, he appeared in many places at the same time."

"What? Appeared in many places at the same time!" Snape and Flott almost said in unison, this result was really unexpected.

"Yes, we sent a hundred Basset bats, but they were divided into several groups and flew to different places in groups. We also carried out investigations one by one, and indeed found traces, and all of them were The latest trace of being alive."

This incident was beyond their expectations, and Flotte no longer knew what to say, and was still in shock and speculation.But Snape was calmer in comparison. He thought about it carefully, and then asked, "Where did Quirrell go last year, have you checked?"

"It was investigated, and it turned out that he had gone to Albania."

Albania?It seems that there is something tricky, because Quirrell keeps saying that he went to the dark forest.

"Can you give us the detailed results of searching for magic traces?" Flotte asked.

"Yes, after I disappear, all the investigation results will be displayed on that piece of paper. But what I want to report in particular is that the magical aura that appeared in many places at the same time also appeared in Hogwarts, and it is the most Active is also the most intense."

Hogwarts... Could it be that the matter in the Chamber of Secrets is really related to the Dark Lord?

"Madam and sir, is there anything else you would like to ask?"

"Not for now." Snape said in a low voice.

"It's my pleasure to serve you." After speaking, the golden powder completely turned into dots and disappeared into the air.

Flott and Snape fell silent, because no matter how you think about it, this matter is so weird.

Float pulled out the chair that matched Snape's desk and sat on it secretly, terrified by her own thoughts.

"Are you sure the news from this place is absolutely accurate? A gossip agency that tracks whether other people's husbands are cheating?" Snape was the first to break the silence.

"I admit that this place mainly handles things that don't make it to the table, but many things that I asked him to investigate in the past few times have never gone wrong, including my life experience."

One of Snape's hands was tightly gripping the corner of his desk, and his expression was incomprehensible: "Then what better idea do you have to explain this result?"

"Yes, either Dumbledore dismembered Quirrell and threw it everywhere, or the Dark Lord was dismembered." These two results sound unbelievable. Well, the first one is that she dismembered Dumbledore. Lido wanted to go crazy, and people said it was a trace of life, so she had to rule out this idea, but she saw the corpse in such a state with her own eyes, and even broke off a finger from it.The second thought is not as good as the first one, who would tear up Voldemort's body, it's just a joke!Only he himself has this ability, but Flott admits that the Dark Lord is very perverted at certain times, but he will not be so perverted that he divides himself (but Lao Fu is so perverted).

"Is it feasible for you to think about your two ideas?" Snape, like Flott, of course would not believe that this was the result of the matter.

"Could it be that you have a better idea?"

Snape didn't speak, but took out the letter paper that was blank but now there were lines of data appearing out of thin air, and read it again.

"Should we tell Dumbledore about this?" Flotte raised her head and asked, "If this data is true, or if there is really a part of the Dark Lord in Hogwarts, then it may be related to the Chamber of Secrets." related to the incident."

"You also said that if the data is true, maybe they just fell under the Dark Lord's tricks, or there are many Dark Lords in this world? You know that everyone's magical aura is different."

Flotte thought for a while in silence. She admitted that there might be some tricks, but to be honest, if she were the Dark Lord, in such a lost situation, she would definitely hope that his servants would find him and make a comeback. , Even if he was trying to prevent Dumbledore from finding him, his disappearance was an unexpected event, and there was absolutely no time to arrange this situation, or their knowledge was still too little.Flotte hesitated for a moment, and said, "I think we still need to tell Dumbledore, and he said it too, and we will tell him as soon as the result comes out."

Snape put down the letter, the black eyes on his face became deeper, he seemed to think for a while, and finally decided: "Okay, when the dueling club is over, let's find Dumbledore."

The author has something to say:

I didn't finish playing last night, so today's update is a bit late, I'm really sorry.
