Magical Studies at Hogwarts

Ike discovered a long time ago that to some extent, the butterfly effect does exist, and many things he did produced different results from those in his memory.

However, if he does not interfere with something, or if he pushes it along the established path, it will return to its established route.

After angrily scolding the group of Death Eaters, Comrade Lao Fu took them back to Gaunt's old house next to the cemetery. They would need to stay here for a while until they found a better place to stay.

In the old house, Comrade Lao Fu naturally sat on the only chair. Nagini lay at his feet, with the snake head on Comrade Lao Fu's knees, enjoying the caress. The Death Eaters who came over

Divided into two lines and standing below, facing Comrade Lao Fu, it is very similar to the scene in Ike's previous TV series when he went to court.

"Come here, little Ike, come next to me." Comrade Lao Fu stopped Ike who wanted to stand at the back, called him to his side, and asked him to stand behind the chair.

"We need a new place. This place is too shabby. It always makes me want to write some bad things. I have lived enough." Comrade Lao Fu said softly, "Lucius, I think you must

You won’t mind.”

"It's my pleasure, Master." Old Malfoy leaned down and replied respectfully.

"Very good, I see your loyalty."

"Ah, loyalty..." Comrade Lao Fu sighed, "This is the most rare quality in the world. You are all loyal. Although you all have your own plans, at least you are here..."

"With all due respect, Master... we are still here..."

"Wait a moment, Lucius, we need to wait a moment." Comrade Lao Fu was very calm, "The great Dark Lord is not stingy and likes to give his servants a second chance..."

"Tonight, if there are still people who haven't come, I will wait for them until dawn."

"As long as they come before dawn, the Dark Lord will forgive their guilt, just as I have graciously forgiven you."

"So, wait, keep waiting..."

Comrade Lao Fu closed his eyes, leaned back against the back of the chair, and gently stroked Nagini on his legs with his fingers. Ike folded his hands in front of him, closed his eyes, and stood there motionless.

.

Everyone was waiting, and no sound was made. Only the occasional buzzing of insects came from outside the old house, but it did not relieve the depressing atmosphere at all.

"Crack!"

"Ta, ta, ta"

A few hours passed, and with a piercing sound and loud footsteps, a tall man pushed the door open and came in. He was wearing a dark robe, striding like a star, and the robe was blown up, making him look very similar.

A bat.

"Owner."

"Severus, you're here." Comrade Lao Fu opened his eyes, his red pupils fixed on Snape who was kneeling in front of him. Without any hesitation, he stretched out his wand and cast a Cruciatus Curse.

Snape lay on the ground in pain, curled up, and let out a fierce roar. Fortunately, it didn't take long, Comrade Lao Fu stopped the Cruciatus Curse after about ten seconds.

"You are late, Severus. This is your punishment. You should have no objection." Comrade Lao Fu said slowly, looking very relaxed, as if he had done something trivial and natural.

"No...no, Master..." Snape's forehead was covered with sweat and his face was pale.

"Then, tell me, why are you late? Is it because the life in Hogwarts made you forget your master?"

"No, Master, no..." Snape explained, his voice still trembling, "You don't know how happy I was when I felt your call. I couldn't wait to come to see you right away...

"

"But you didn't, Severus." Comrade Lao Fu said, "Tell me your reasons, and the Dark Lord will give you a chance to defend yourself..."

"I have never forgotten the mission you gave me, Master..."

"Go back to Dumbledore, monitor him, and report the information to you." Snape calmed down a little, and his voice no longer trembled. "When I sensed your call, I thought that I was staying there at that time.

Hogwarts is what's best for you."

"Oh? It looks like you brought a gift for me, Severus."

"Yes, Master, I have brought you the latest news about Dumbledore, Hogwarts and Cornelius Fudge..."

In a calm tone, Snape told Comrade Lao Fu everything that had happened since Harry returned to Hogwarts. The exposure of Barty Jr. and Ike, Dumbledore's handling, and Fudge's panic.

, and the ending of little Barty...

"Bang!"

When he heard that Fudge had brought a dementor to see Little Barty, causing Little Barty to endure a kiss from a dementor, Comrade Lao Fu suddenly slapped the handle of the chair, his red eyes widening.

The large, slit-like nostrils were also spread quite a bit.

Everyone was so frightened that they dared not make a sound, and remained motionless like quails.

After a while, Comrade Lao Fu calmed down. He gently raised the hand holding the wand, and Snape, who was kneeling on the ground, stood up immediately.

"Okay, Severus, thank you for bringing me the news. You have shown your loyalty." Comrade Lao Fu said slowly, "Although that is not what I want to hear..."

"You should also wait until dawn..."

Snape walked to the front position on the left hand side of Comrade Lao Fu and stopped. He stood upright, closed his eyes like the others, and waited quietly.

Only this time, no one came again until the sun fully rose in the east.

"Lucius..." Comrade Lao Fu said softly, "Let's go to your castle..."

"Okay, Master." Old Malfoy bowed, "Please allow me to make arrangements..."

"Go, go." Comrade Lao Fu waved his hand, and Old Malfoy bowed again before walking out.

"Severus..." Comrade Lao Fu said to Snape again, "Go back to Dumbledore and remember your mission."

"Yes, Master."

"Let's all go, let's go. It's enough to leave little Ike and Wormtail here." Comrade Lao Fu ordered, "I will call you when I need you."

"Master, it's okay."

After a while, old Malfoy came back. He was stunned for a moment when he looked at the much empty room, but he didn't have any reaction. Instead, he became more respectful.

"I called a carriage. It's safer this way."

"Very good, Lucius, you did a good job." Comrade Lao Fu nodded, stood up, and walked out the door first. Nagini followed closely at his feet.

Wormtail's reaction was a bit slow, but it was not too late. Before Comrade Lao Fu could reach the door, he rushed over and opened the door respectfully. Outside the door, there was a gorgeous carriage with the emblem of the Malfoy family engraved on it.

Stopping there, the two Thestrals were shaking their heads restlessly.

"Let's go, little Ike, come up." Comrade Lao Fu sat on the carriage and said to Ike. Old Malfoy and Wormtail bent down in time.

"Okay, teacher." Ike agreed, got on the carriage, and sat opposite Comrade Lao Fu.

"Let's go, Lucius."

Wormtail heard the sound and closed the door of the carriage, and sat in front of the carriage with Old Malfoy. Old Malfoy pulled up the reins and said "drive", and the Thestral immediately started running, pulling the carriage slowly upward until it disappeared.
