Chapter 167 A Sleepless Night on the Second Day of School

Is he going to kill Sirius Black?

Lucius Malfoy looked at Snape with a strange look.

As Snape's senior, Lucius knew all about Snape's love history during school, and naturally he was also very clear about the grievances between Snape and the Marauders.

Snape wanted to kill Black... To be honest, Lucius was not surprised at all.

As a capitalist in the wizarding world, Lucius quickly settled an account.

As one of the ancient pure-blood families, the Black family is very rich.

But the money is in Gringotts.

Except for the heir of the Black family, no one can take out the money.

And now, the first heir of the Black family, Regulus Black, is dead.

Sirius Black, as the second heir, is now imprisoned in Azkaban.

As long as Sirius Black dies, according to the order of succession, he, Lucius Malfoy...'s wife, Narcissa Black Malfoy, has the opportunity to inherit the property.

"I will apply to meet Sirius Black. Fudge has taken so much money from me, it's time for him to help with something."

Lucius smiled faintly and said, "I will give you an answer soon."

At this point, Lucius suddenly found that he couldn't laugh anymore.

The Black family is miserable!

Because Regulus Black and Sirius Black are both Death Eaters, they work for Voldemort.

As a result, one of the two brothers died quietly, and the other was imprisoned in Azkaban. If nothing unexpected happens, he will never get out in his life.

Even if he escapes, he will most likely die in the future.

And I... Lucius Malfoy, am also a Death Eater!

"I am calculating the Black family's property now. One day in the future, will my Malfoy family's property also..."

When he thought of this, Lucius felt unwell.

Snape glanced at Lucius.

What's wrong with this guy?

Why is he smiling confidently one moment and frowning the next?

Realizing that Snape was looking at him, Lucius tried to maintain his demeanor, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing an awkward but decent smile.

Snape: "..."

Turning suddenly, Snape walked towards the gate of the manor.

...

Back at Hogwarts, Snape sat quietly in his office chair, casting a spell on the quill pen to automatically correct summer homework while recalling what happened tonight.

Snape knew Lucius, his senior, very well.

He was not a loyal Death Eater, but he would never dare to betray Voldemort - even if Voldemort had lost his power.

And Lucius's wavering gave Snape an opportunity to use him.

What's even better is that Lucius personally delivered the dark magic items left by Voldemort to Dumbledore.

Based on Snape's understanding of Lucius, he should be eager to make meritorious contributions to Voldemort, and at the same time hope that someone can kill Voldemort to eliminate future troubles.

So he will do his job honestly, and then do some trivial things in secret.

"Diary... what is that?"

Snape pondered in his heart, "The secret of the Dark Lord's immortality? What kind of dark magic item can prevent the Dark Lord from dying?"

Since learning that Voldemort did not die that night ten years ago, Snape has been investigating the secret of Voldemort's immortality.

Snape has read the books in the forbidden section of the library countless times over the years.

"It seems that Dumbledore hid those books."

Thinking of Dumbledore's attitude, Snape knew what was going on.

Since cultivating Voldemort, the Dark Lord, Dumbledore has been much more cautious in doing things.

"Whatever it is, the only way to find it is to make the Dark Lord expose himself."

Let Voldemort use his 'secret of immortality' as bait to lure Dumbledore. This is the method Snape came up with.

And all this requires Voldemort to recover a certain amount of strength, or even completely revive!

Snape secretly planned.

Last year's Quirrell incident made Snape see some of Dumbledore's ideas.

Dumbledore wants to train Harry to fight Voldemort.

This is also the fate in the prophecy.

But...

That's Lily's son!

Snape's face was painful. He had killed Lily, and he couldn't watch her child take risks anymore.

He had to do something.

...

On the same night, Snape was not the only one who couldn't sleep.

In the Ravenclaw library, Andy was reading quietly.

"Are you reading a book about law again?" Hermione asked with a look of surprise.

When did Andy become interested in this kind of book?

Has he changed his personality?

"That's right!" Andy gritted his teeth.

Only by arming yourself with legal weapons can you possibly bring down Dumbledore.

After the astronomy class, Andy specifically asked Harry and Ron if Professor Lockhart was really that bad?

Their answers were as expected.

It is said that when the Cornish elves were making trouble in the classroom, Lockhart tried to pick up his wand to stop them.

But the result was obvious.

Lockhart didn't use any magic, and he was severely punished by those little guys.

Andy's eyes were red at the time.

Unfortunately, Lockhart did not leave any evidence.

Lockhart is different from Quirrell. Lockhart is a celebrity in the wizarding world and a recipient of the Order of Merlin, Level 3.

Andy can't do anything to him for his empty talk.

You can't just give him a killing curse, right?

Not really.

"You want to expel Professor Lockhart from school?" Hermione knew Andy too well, not to mention that Andy did it so obviously.

"Um!"

Andy nodded and admitted, "More than that, I also want to teach Dumbledore a lesson by the way, so that he won't always find such incompetent parallel imports to teach us lessons."

Hermione looked at Andy strangely.

You are too brave, right?

You, a second-year wizard, dare to go head-to-head with the greatest wizard of the twentieth century?

Voldemort didn't even dare to do this when he was in school.

"Have you thought of a solution?" Hermione asked curiously.

"think……"

Andy glanced at Hermione and hummed: "Just wait and see the good show!"

"You actually want to hide it from me?"

Hermione said unhappily: "I don't believe you can cause trouble for Dumbledore."

"I didn't mean to hide it from you..."

Andy looked around and said, "The ghosts and portraits in the castle are intelligent. There is no guarantee that they will not tell Dumbledore."

"He is the principal after all."

If you understand the law, you can find its loopholes.

Andy felt that tonight's reading was not in vain.

"whatever."

Hermione rolled her eyes angrily, "When you are expelled from school, I will watch the show."
