Hogwarts’s Affectionate and Righteous Slytherin - Chapter 129

Professor Slughorn watched with satisfaction that the children of his college had been tidied up, and finally warned: “The colleges are responsible for guarding the entrance to the auditorium, and the male and female chairpersons are responsible for management. If you find any situation, immediately report to me.”

Immediately, his eyes glanced in the direction of several senior students, and then turned away, “Finally, I don’t think tonight is a good time to make jokes, does everyone know?”

After making it clear that everyone had reached a consensus, Professor Slughorn waved his hand and quickly left the auditorium with several other deans and Dumbledore.

After the professors left, the auditorium burst into flames.

Gryffindors had taken this as a wild adventure, and even though the Slytherin tent area was the furthest away from them, Reggie could hear the singing over there.

“Help, can’t they be quieter?” Snape stared gloomily at the noise elsewhere.

Among them, Potter and a few silly boys have already held hands and danced the ape courtship dance.

Looking closely, it seems that there are people from Hufflepuffs.

Just as Snape was wiping his wand for the fifth time, the door to the Great Hall was opened again.

“boom”

With the sound of magic explosion, Professor McGonagall’s frown seemed to kill a fly.

“Twenty points for Gryffindor!” She walked in quickly, and the corners of the wizard’s robe began to roll up with her movements, but after deducting points from Gryffindor, she went straight across Gryffindor Fendor’s area, go to the innermost Slytherin area.

Slytherin students look at me, I look at you, some confused, some students who were lying in sleeping bags tossing and turning subconsciously stood up.

How did the basilisk escape?

Wasn’t it locked in a secret room?

Then the voice I heard in the Room of Requirement was probably Snake Whisper, no wonder the other party could hide it so well, no wonder even Ms. Gray didn’t see anyone other than him.

Because only he could hear the voice.

It’s just… when did he speak snake language? Reggie remembers that when he was a child, when he was still in an embarrassing period like a Squib, he saw a snake in Lestrange Manor, which was Rabastan’s pet.

He was certain that at that time he could not understand what the snake was saying.

That is probably what happened after the awakening of magic power, and it should also have something to do with Slytherin’s mark.

“Have I been trained to become a Horcrux unknowingly?” But this speculation was quickly overturned, not to mention that he had no thoughtful communication with Salazar Slytherin himself, and after it disappeared inexplicably , he never sensed the existence of the other party.

But there are no absolutes in the world, “How can I be sure that I am still myself?” In the sleeping bag distributed, Regis thought of many methods in his mind.

“Mr. Duke? Mr. Duke?!” Professor McGonagall’s voice revealed concern.

“Oh, what’s the matter, Professor McGonagall?” Recovering his thoughts, Regis quickly climbed out of his sleeping bag. Since he was in the auditorium for one night, he did not change into pajamas, but wore a daytime robe.

Professor McGonagall breathed a sigh of relief, “Please come with me.”

Anthony and Snape also stood up. They had known the ins and outs of tonight’s evening from Reggie’s mouth just now, but they were a little confused as to why Professor McGonagall called Reggie away at this time.

“Professor, where are you taking Regis?”

“We can help too.”

Professor McGonagall glared at the two of them, “Don’t worry, it’s just that some things need Mr. Duke’s help, you two just stay.”

Reggie nodded to the two of them, cleaned up a little, and quickly followed Professor McGonagall from the auditorium hall.

When they reached the Slytherin lounge, several deans and Headmaster Dumbledore were already waiting there, and a three-headed snake was floating in the air, but it had woken up at this moment.

As soon as Ruiji appeared, he immediately focused the eyes of several people.

“Oh~ boy, come here quickly, I heard something… Dumbledore wants to ask you.” Professor Slughorn immediately greeted him, stopped him by the shoulder, and led him to several other professors .

After greeting, Regis happily admitted: “Yes, I can understand snake language.”

“It’s a great talent, Mr. Duke.” Dumbledore’s expression was calm, with a slight smile in his eyes behind the silver lenses, “Thank you very much for getting it under control in time, and I’m glad Horace came to inform me of the school’s presence. There was no news of anyone else being injured when the snake was running.”

“This is what I should do, Headmaster Dumbledore.” Regis said seriously.

Dumbledore nodded in relief, and he turned his attention to the rune snake, “Rigi, I think your talent should give us some clues. I wonder if you can ask if it has other companions.”

“I’d love to, Professor.”

Although several professors already knew in advance that Reggie was a Parseltongue, they felt a little weird when they saw the continuous “hissing” sound of one person and one snake.

Reggie shook his head at Dumbledore, “They said they were put in a box when they were born, and then they were suddenly put here without seeing other companions.”

This can be troublesome.

I haven’t seen it, doesn’t mean I haven’t.

This snake is not like an accident. In order to prevent it from being done by someone with a heart, they must conduct a thorough investigation of the entire castle tonight.

Professor Keitelborn has checked in advance that this rune has no egg-laying period, so there should be no snake eggs left in the school.

“Could it be some student’s secret pet?” Professor Sprout speculated.

Suddenly, all the professors turned to look at Professor Slughorn.

Professor Slughorn: “…”

After all, runes were found in the Slytherin lounge, and Slytherins are known to love to play with snakes.

Here, runes are not owls. They can be bought in ordinary pet stores. Obviously, you can only order them in places like Knockturn Alley, and you need a lot of gold Galleons.

Just these two points, no matter how you look at it, Slytherin is the most suspect.

Professor Slughorn was just stared at a bit overwhelmed, but this reaction was obvious information, and it could be seen that he probably thought the same thing in his heart.

Instead, Reggie began to speak, “I believe not a student of Slytherin.”

In fact, it is unlikely that a Slytherin student did it.

First of all, if it is a pet brought by a Slytherin student, it cannot have a chance to pass by the second floor.

The Slytherin lounge is located at the bottom of the lake and is the favorite place for snakes, and students who can spend money to buy runes as pets do not need to let the snakes go out for food.

Under the circumstance that someone is in charge of the meal, the Rune Snake has no motivation to run outside, and even runs to the second floor. The stairs at Hogwarts are not so easy to deal with. Since they run to the second floor, it is difficult to guarantee that they will not run away. Been to other places.

Under such a complex staircase structure, the probability of a snake trying to return to the basement lounge without being touched by anyone in the process is too low.

Furthermore, if it was a Slytherin student who secretly raised it, when he found the snake, he should have jumped out and admitted that it was there, and this matter would not have been passed on to Professor Slughorn at all.

At least not so fast. Maybe someone will secretly report to their dean, but I believe that Professor Slughorn will also choose to keep a low profile.

In any case, it wouldn’t be such a big scene now.

Therefore, Regis is more inclined to this rune snake, or it was secretly raised by other college students and ran down. The snake likes to run to dark and cold places.

Either someone deliberately left it near the Slytherin lounge, and there were people coming and going in Potions class, and many people would pass through the basement.

Dumbledore should think so too. He conjured a transparent bottle and put the runes in it, and said to the crowd, “Everyone is innocent until proven guilty. What’s more, There’s enough underground for these kids tonight.”

The other professors also nodded.

Only the representatives of the other three schools were not disturbed tonight. The places where they lived were heavily guarded, and it could be said that a fly could not fly in. There was a protection spell cast by Dumbledore himself, so after weighing it again. , or decided not to disturb the guests at night.

After nothing happened to Reggie, he was taken back to the auditorium. Fortunately, before passing Professor McGonagall, he became angry, and the Gryffindor area was much quieter.

Seeing Potter’s eyes full of “something to ask”, Regis chose to ignore it and walked towards the innermost Slytherin area.

In fact, he believed that if Professor McGonagall hadn’t watched him at the door and warned Potter with his eyes, Potter would never have let him go.

Returning to his sleeping bag, the strings that Reggie had been tensing were loosened, and he hid the basilisk in front of everyone.

It’s just that Snape seemed to have something on his mind tonight.

When Reggie came back, Snape glanced at him, dragging his sleeping bag, and gestured to the corner of the auditorium.

“Rigi…” The two dragged their sleeping bags and ran to the corner to stay, but Snape seemed to be very confused, as if he wanted to say something but had no determination.

Regis recalled carefully, it seemed that when school started, Snape always hesitated.

Instead of urging him to be born, he cast a few anti-interference spells beside the two before looking at each other calmly and saying, “Severus, we are friends, you can trust me.”

Reggie had counted Lily’s relationship with Snape. In fact, the two had only known each other for a few years. If the relationship between men and women was removed, he believed that his friendship with Snape was not much different.

Since Snape chose to ignore what happened at the Christmas ball, Reggie naturally wouldn’t bring it up afterward.

The candles in the auditorium had been extinguished, and only the soft starlight spread from the enchanted ceiling.

Many students looked up at the ceiling, as if they were in the wild, thinking about it… exciting!

Snape pursed his lips and looked at Reggie. The two had known each other for three years, and he had never seen Reggie frown.”

It seems that no matter what happens, he can take it calmly, and being expelled from his family and betrayed by friends seems to be not worth mentioning to him.

Snape felt that all the unspeakable and annoyances in his heart were swept away at this moment.

“My mother is dying.” He began to ramble about how he felt during this time.

For example, why does Prince appear to be unafraid of her impending death?

Snape remembered that on the day Prince was announced his days were numbered, his father, Tobias, didn’t drink for the first time, but what was the use of that?

It was useless. The girl was so thin that she only had a handful of bones, and there were countless old and new wounds all over her body. She always looked weak and haggard. After suffering so much, she was finally about to die.

Is Tobias sad for her? Nope, the man was probably grieving the loss of a tenured cathartic nanny.

As he thought, Tobia returned to his old days the next day, getting drunk every day.

Why didn’t he die?

Listening to the sound of smashing things from downstairs that night, Snape sat on the bed and wondered.

The moonlight poured in through the window, and he saw the wand beside the pillow through the moonlight. At this time, there was a trace of movement in his eyes.

During the whole process, Regis listened quietly and did not make a sound.

“…she probably won’t make it this summer, Reggie, I don’t understand why she’s guarding someone like Tobia until the end of her life.”

Snape’s voice was full of disgust when he spoke of Tobias.

After a moment of silence.

Reggie patted him on the shoulder: “A lot of things don’t need a reason, maybe for Ms. Death Prince, it’s a relief.”

“You know, Severus? In the East, there is a romantic interpretation of death. They think that after death a person becomes a planet, and they are far away in the sky, every night, for their loved ones. People light themselves up.”

“I don’t know, Reggie, I don’t know, I don’t think anyone loves me.” Snape’s voice was very low, and there was a choking behind him.

Is there anyone who doesn’t love their children?

Will do.

I have seen countless **** news, so Regis didn’t say anything big.

If the parties cannot feel it, is that still love?

If there is someone who has been loved~www.mtlnovel.com~ how could it be because of a flower in the same year that they have the ability to love someone.

How could one lose the ability to love someone forever because of the withering of a lily.

Because I haven’t felt the warmth, as soon as it appears, it will be like a drowning person grabbing a driftwood, unwilling to let go.

“Love? Too weak a word, Severus. We don’t need to care if others love us or not, I prefer to love others than to be loved. In this way, the initiative is always in my hands. The rules of the game are up to me. Calculate.”

“Only strong strength and ever-hot heart can make our most precious treasure. We are friends, if you will, brothers for life. Believe that in the future, as long as you want, you will have countless new friends .”

“Brother?” Snape chewed on the word.

This word is too “Potter”, and every time he hears this word from Potter’s mouth, he can’t control the contempt in his eyes, but now…

The haze in his eyes dissipated, and he lay in his sleeping bag and looked at the ceiling, his eyes dazzling than the stars.
