Chapter 2478 Special Silence
Snape's voice was actually not loud, and everyone in the room could barely hear it through the door. But even without Sarah's warning in advance, students like Hermione, Harry, and Ron, who have been with this Hogwarts professor for a long time, can tell the truth from the short sentence "open the door" from the other party. The indifference full of memories belonged only to them, Professor Snape.
"Uh...shall I open the door?"
Even though Harry is now able to slay demons with the Gryffindor sword in his hand, when he heard the very familiar voice outside the door, it seemed that he suddenly changed back to the old man who would always be punished current students.
However, the experience of the past few years has not been in vain, at least now when everyone is subconsciously a little dazed, he is the first to stand up.
But the next second, he saw Hermione standing up too.
"Let me go!" Hermione waved her hand, and then said loudly as she walked towards the door, "Professor Snape, please wait a moment, this is coming..."
Seeing this, Harry couldn't help scratching his head, and simply sat back holding the sword again. He habitually turned his head to look at Ron, but saw that his good brother shrugged at him subtly, and seemed to be a little complicated about Snape's sudden visit.
In fact, it wasn't just Harry and Ron. Almost none of their friends who had studied at Hogwarts and were not Slytherins were not blamed by Snape. But to be honest, many things have long since become memories. Even if everyone didn’t like it in the past... It can even be said that they hated this professor who had never spoken kindly to them. Everyone felt so hard to let go.
In any case, at least the professor was absolutely above reproach in his teaching. These students, almost everyone has learned at least the minimum knowledge of Potions and Defense Against the Dark Arts in the other party's strict to demanding class, and under the other party's teaching habits that pay special attention to practicality, That knowledge also benefited many students in this monstrous disaster, and some even saved their lives because of it.
Most of the guys have complicated feelings towards this professor who has never had a good face.
And in the moment when all the Hogwarts students in the room exchanged glances with each other, Hermione had already opened the door and walked back. Behind her, Snape's hurried figure, as usual, soon appeared in everyone's field of vision.
"Professor, please sit down first! Do you want... something to drink? Tea is brewed on the stove..."
To be honest, even Hermione didn't know how to start the topic when facing this former professor. Especially when the specific intention of the other party is not clear, based on the past friendship between the two parties,
It's even more embarrassing.
However, it was obvious that Snape didn't care about the complexity and embarrassment of the students in front of him. He frowned slightly when Hermione was halfway through speaking, and said lightly:
"There's no need for that, I don't have to sit down, and I don't drink tea."
After interrupting Hermione's polite invitation, he paused again, as if hesitating for something. But this was also a moment of hesitation, and then he continued very quickly:
"There are a few things, I'll leave! First of all, can any of you tell me clearly where Maca McClain is now?"
"Uh……"
The moment Snape asked this question, everyone who was already a little silent immediately froze.
Speaking of which, how long has it been since everyone said this name clearly? Even if it is unavoidable to be mentioned sometimes, everyone almost always uses "he" to replace it tacitly, and then quickly passes it by without going into it.
Was it when he returned to this disaster area alone from Maca and disappeared immediately? Or when everyone saw the body sealed in the ice with their own eyes? Or, is it secretly guessing that the so-called "lord of the living corpse" is very likely to be Maca's current identity?
In fact, people who can sit here today have similar thoughts and judgments even if they are different, which makes everyone form this tacit understanding by coincidence.
But today, Snape appeared in front of everyone, and mercilessly broke the special silence among their little friends.
"Maybe...that's a good thing."
Hermione had such an idea almost subconsciously in her heart, but soon her heart was astringent, and she couldn't help pursing her thin lips.
On the other side, Luna, who hadn't spoken much since returning to this room, turned her head slightly after hearing Snape's questioning. There was a misty look in those big silver-gray eyes, and he didn't know what he was thinking, but there was a hint of sadness inexplicably.
As for the others, no matter what thoughts they had in their hearts, at least on the surface they were almost silent.
"No one knows?"
Snape glanced back and forth a few times, and his eyes flicked across the faces of Sarah and other people with relatively calm expressions. Obviously, most of his attention was on Hermione and the others.
It's just that the moment he wanted to speak again, Hermione, who could see that she didn't sit down again after coming back, seemed to have made some decision, took a deep breath and said:
"We speculate that the lord of the living corpses may—"
"Someone is here again."
Unexpectedly, it was Sarah who spoke suddenly again, whispering a reminder, but at the same time, Hermione couldn't finish the words that were on her lips.
And then, as if eager to confirm her words, there were three knocks on the door "Tuk Tuk Tuk".
"It's the zombie girl, Bai Ye."
As soon as the knock on the door fell, Sarah added as if to add.
Not far from the door, Snape, who was standing there, frowned. He glanced at Sarah who was speaking, then looked back at the closed door, paused for a moment, then simply turned around, stretched out his hand and opened the door.
Sarah's perception was naturally correct. As soon as the door opened, everyone saw the petite figure standing at the door from Snape's side. Perhaps it was because she didn't expect that it would be Snape who opened the door. Being a bit unfamiliar with this new guest, she took a half step back and was slightly stunned. Afterwards, she moved her body carefully and looked at the room from Snape's side. people inside.
"Eldest sister said...it's already getting dark. If you are hungry, you might as well go to the restaurant to eat first." She dutifully conveyed the message to everyone, "The master has also returned. After everyone has eaten, he will eat in the main hall." Meeting with all of you...Miss Granger, do you see?"
