harry potter book of crimes

In today's Europe, it is natural to be cautious when doing things. Under the chaos, anything can happen, and any dangers can be encountered. If you are not careful, no one knows what will happen next moment.

What kind of scene.

Especially here with Minerva, there is a large group of students behind her who need to be responsible for her. If there is an eventuality... no, even "in case" she is absolutely not allowed to appear.

For this reason, it was impossible for her to follow the suggestion made by Sirius in the current matter - that would obviously be too reckless.

However, while she and Sirius were waiting outside for Flitwick to call the other professors, they discovered that the other professor seemed to have made up his mind to hide in the old apartment opposite, even a little bit.

When there was no movement, she knew that she might not be able to find a suitable breakthrough point in a short time.

However, for the sake of the safety of the students, it is definitely not possible to delay the time too long. After all, when there is almost no understanding of the other party, who can know whether the other party is secretly doing something terrible?

Yes, just like the previous incident of privately cultivating living corpses that triggered major changes in the International Federation of Wizards, it is a typical case that can serve as a warning to everyone!

Therefore, when Flitwick finally came over with Sprout and other professors to meet him, Minerva hesitated and put aside Sirius' plan that was obviously risky, but might indeed be effective.

Among the options to be selected for reference.

"...By the way, Filius, you still haven't found Severus?"

After discussing with Flitwick, Sprout and others, she suddenly asked again.

"Um?"

Flitwick couldn't help but be startled when he heard it, and then he reacted and looked around in confusion for a while.

"I bumped into it!" he whispered, "Speaking of which... yes! Didn't Professor Snape come over? He clearly said he would come here first."

Hearing this, Minerva couldn't help but frown slightly, not to mention Sirius beside her.

"Professor McGonagall, you want me to see -"

Sirius was about to say something, but looking at his expression when he spoke, it was obvious that he didn't have much trust in Snape. But before he could continue, Minerva shook her head and blocked the next words.

go back.

"Sirius, are you sure those infiltrators are inside, right?" she said, "Since they haven't made any movement inside, please continue to keep an eye here until I go to Severus to ask.

Let’s deal with it after we know it clearly.”

In addition to the professors who were summoned by Flitwick, there were several other teachers including the astronomy professor Sinistra, as well as the Aurors assigned by Madame Maxime to manage and protect the students.

In this case, everyone may not be able to feel at ease, but at least there is some leeway.

Judging from the situation mentioned by Sirius before, it is necessary to talk to Snape.

"Okay, Minerva, don't worry, leave this to us." Professor Sprout nodded to her, indicating that she didn't have to worry too much about this.

Sprout cared about those students even more deeply than Minerva. In order for the little wizards to live safely in this community, she had already decided from the moment she learned about this incident.

Even if I risk my life, I still have to stand in front of the children.

"Well, I'll be back soon." After Minerva said that, she turned and left.

…

Unlike Sirius, who has never trusted Snape, Minerva still has a lot of recognition for this colleague who usually has a long face all day long, although most of it actually comes from Dumbledore's "words" in the past.

”, and Maca’s consistent “exemplary teachings”.

As for the other part, of course it comes from the relationship between myself and Snape who were both professors at Hogwarts over the years.

Okay! To be honest, personally speaking, Minerva didn't have a very good impression of Snape. If she hadn't allowed herself to look at people with prejudice at work, she would definitely not have thought of it.

You have to say half a sentence to the other person - the personalities and concepts of the two people are indeed very different.

In fact, for so many years, she rarely talked to Snape outside of work.

But no matter where it came from, Minerva still had enough trust in Snape, so when she realized what Sirius was about to say, she immediately stopped him.

At present, half of them are actually living under someone else's roof, and disasters and chaos are raging. At this time, she doesn't want any internal noises that might arouse mutual suspicion, which would be the worst.

“Tuk-tuk-tuk.”

Standing at the door of Snape's temporary potion preparation room, Minerva knocked on the door, but received no response. After waiting for a few seconds, she simply reached out and opened the door, pushed it open and looked inside.

One glance.

No one, Snape wasn't here.

Before she came in, she had already visited the abandoned park mentioned by Flitwick. It was also deserted and there was no trace of the other party.

"Is it possible that Sirius should be asked to follow the clues again?"

Minerva was thinking this when she suddenly heard a soft "click" behind her. She took a half step back to the corridor, turned around and looked to the side, only to see that the door to the next door had been opened, and someone walked out of it.

Who is it if not Snape?

"Professor McGonagall...are you looking for me?"

Nowadays, Snape still has that cold and indifferent expression, but after experiencing those things and having a younger sister, he feels at least better than he did in those years.

But today, right now, Minerva suddenly felt that he seemed to be changing back again.

"Sirius said just now that you have met those infiltrators?" Putting aside the feeling in her heart for the time being, Minerva asked, "Who are they? Do you know them...

?”

After a moment of silence, probably only a few seconds, Snape shook his head and said:

"It's not acquaintance, it's just some personal grudges between me and them... I won't go into that. As for their identities, if you want to know, I just happened to know a little bit - they should be regarded as ephemeral demons.

Ni people.”

"Ilvermorny?"

After Minerva heard this, she was suddenly startled and couldn't help but said to herself:

"What are they doing here? And... why are they hurting Mr. Creevey?"
