Big Boss In The Harry Potter World

What happened to the attempted murder at the Screaming Shack? On the surface, Sirius Black used Remus John Lupine, who turned into a werewolf during the full moon, to try to bite Snape to death, but was rescued by James Potter who heard the news.

The story seems very simple, but as long as you scrutinize it carefully, you will find the strangeness in it.

Judging from the past grievances between Black and Snape, the Screaming Shack incident was an important reason for the two people to form a complete feud. But before that, although the two of them didn't like each other, they didn't get into a deadly situation, so why would Black want to kill Snape first?

In the original book, Lupine once recalled the scene at that time in the conversation with Harry: he thought that Sirius did this just for fun, so he took it lightly. Also in the original book, Snape and Harry also communicated about this incident. At that time, Snape said to Harry: "If it weren't for your pretentious father to get cold feet, then I would die. There is nothing he has done that is worthy of praise." Yes, he saved me and himself, and if I die, he'll be fired."

Obviously, Snape believed that the mastermind of the murder was not Sirius Black, but James Potter. So is Potter really 25 the mastermind? Then we have to see if he has this motive.

The answer is yes.

Potter and Snape were rivals, and the kind that hated each other to the bone. Considering the background of the times at that time: when Voldemort had risen and the wizarding world was in chaos, the positions of these two people were completely different. They are not only rivals in love, but also mortal enemies in position. There was never anything to talk about between the Order of the Phoenix and the Death Eaters, and life and death would be separated when they met.

The murder happened when they were in the fifth grade. At that time, the two groups of them were already very familiar with each other. After a few fights, even an idiot would know his enemy well after five years. The relationship between Snape and Lily hadn't been so tense at the time, and Potter must have discovered that the relationship between his crush and his deadly enemy was not that of ordinary schoolmates. In love, in terms of good and evil, Potter's desire to kill Snape is completely understandable.

Potter and Snape are rivals in love. As Potter's best friends, do Black and Lupine know about it? How can the topic between boys avoid girls, they must know more or less.

Lupine has always been a good old man, and he can be kind, but he will never take care of things.

But Black—Padfoot, he's as good as Mr. Prongs in a pair of pants. Whoever makes his "biological brother" who is a half-brother have a hard time, he will never make it easy for him.

James Potter and Lily Evans didn't establish a boyfriend and girlfriend relationship until the seventh grade when they were about to graduate. At this time, Snape, as a "loser", obviously couldn't threaten Potter anymore. Death is not so important. But don't forget that in the fifth and sixth grades, they caught up with the so-called "side incident" in the school, either supporting the mysterious person or opposing him. James had already started pursuing Lily at that time, and Snape was his greatest rival in love. Under the new and old hatred, Potter's motives and excuses for wanting to kill Snape were already very sufficient, and as his "biological brother" How could Black not be able to figure out what he was thinking? Besides, Black already hated Snape to the extreme, so it was not unreasonable to arrange an "accident" according to the situation.

But the next development is very unimaginable, and it is extremely scary to think about it.

If they succeeded, Snape died in Lupine's mouth. Potter and Black can completely shirk the blame, because Black deliberately told Snape about the mechanism through the Whomping Willow, which led Snape to walk into the place that could kill him———————————————————— Liu has been a restricted area of ​​Hogwarts until now, and students are absolutely forbidden to approach it.

As a werewolf, what could Lupine do wrong? At that time, wolfbane potion had not yet appeared, and a werewolf could not maintain reason at all when transforming. The school specially arranged a transformation place for him, just to stay away from the crowd, but some people came to him to die, what does this have to do with the innocent Lupin?

Black could also claim that he didn't reveal anything, or that Snape himself overheard the conversation between them [and went to find out himself. Blake could clean up what he picked.

As for Potter, he has no responsibility.

Nobody would stand up for the unpopular Snape - except for the "Death Eater Reserves" who were in the trenches with him at the time, but their words would be listened to

In other words, if Snape had died at that time, it would really have been for nothing.

Even more terrifying was Dumbledore's reaction at the time.

Afterwards, Snape reported to Dumbledore about Lupine's identity as a werewolf. He didn't go to any other professors, not even the dean of Slytherin, but went directly to Dumbledore. What does that mean? His trust in Dumbledore even exceeded His Dean! Ask, for a Slytherin, who they trust more, Professor Snape or Professor Dumbledore.

Snape told Dumbledore that Lupine was a werewolf, and that Black and others conspired to murder him without telling the headmaster. But what did Dumbledore do? How did he treat the trust of this "little Death Eater"?

I'm sorry, Dumbledore, who has always shown himself as a great man, didn't do anything.

Logically speaking, Black and the others should be brought under control immediately, waiting for an investigation, and they will be expelled immediately after the results come out, and they will be sent to Azkaban. It is a felony involving the murder of a minor wizard——regardless of the perpetrator’s status. identity and age. This law is still in use today.

Snape had come to Dumbledore for help, to find this great man in his mind to back him up. But it turned out that Dumbledore immediately forbade him to reveal this matter to anyone, and had no intention of doing justice for Snape at all.

Alas... Snape's popularity.

Dumbledore's protection of Lupine is understandable, after all, he didn't do it voluntarily. But there was no punishment for Black, not to mention deduction of points and confinement, not even a verbal warning... Black was still swaggering at Hogwarts afterwards.

Dumbledore is no longer tolerance, this is already the category of connivance. In Solim's view, Dumbledore's approach to this matter is as disgusting and contemptuous as those teachers who turn a blind eye to school violence. .
