Chapter 318 Snape and I Are Evenly Matched
Watching Harry and Ron hurriedly running to the eighth floor, Andy turned his head and blinked at Hermione, "Let's go! Let's go eat first."
"Yeah!" The little witch nodded.
Finding an empty corner in the hall and sitting down, Hermione said with a worried look: "Andy, it seems that our guess is right. Voldemort is likely to have left some kind of magic on Professor Snape."
Andy teased: "It seems that Professor Snape did not have a happy Christmas holiday."
"Andy, I'm talking to you about business." The little witch said a little irritably.
In Hermione's view, Snape, who was undercover beside Voldemort for the peace of the wizarding world, was a well-deserved hero. So Hermione didn't want to see Snape end up with a miserable end of being beheaded.
And judging from the current situation, Snape's situation is undoubtedly very difficult.
"Okay, okay!"
Andy smiled helplessly and explained: "Snape must have discussed it with Dumbledore before he went to see Voldemort. This is also the main reason why I asked Harry to see Dumbledore."
"We all want to help, but we can't ruin Dumbledore and Snape's plan just because we are kind enough to help."
At this point, Andy raised his eyebrows, "You should have seen a lot of examples of good intentions but bad results, right?"
"Oh! Okay." Hermione sighed, "I have indeed seen a lot... in movies."
When watching movies before, Hermione was so angry every time she saw such a plot.
But she didn't expect that she would make the same mistake this time.
"Andy, you are always so calm." Hermione said in admiration.
Calm?
Andy just wanted to slack off.
"Thank you...Oh! George and Fred are here."
Andy stood up and said, "Wait for me, I'll go and borrow the map of the living point from them."
After that, Andy stood up and walked towards the Weasley twins.
"Hi! George, Fred. Hello!" Andy greeted with a smile.
"Oh! Andy."
George said exaggeratedly: "My mother talked about you all holiday, thank you for saving Percy and Ron. If you were not in St. Catchpole Village, she would definitely cook a big meal for you every day."
Fred continued: "Percy was so ashamed that he almost committed suicide. He kept locking himself in the house."
George concluded: "So we had a happy Christmas."
"It's nothing, Ron and I are friends."
Andy easily revealed the matter and said straight to the point: "Do you still have the Marauder's Map? I think I need it now."
George's eyes lit up, "Andy, is Hogwarts going to have another big thing?"
Fred also asked excitedly: "Who do you suspect?"
Andy: "..."
What's so exciting about this kind of thing?
"This is confidential." Andy didn't want to say more.
"OK!"
George made an "I understand" expression and said, "We'll go get the Marauder's Map now, wait for us."
"Thank you!" Andy said.
"I was going to give it to you. I think it's more useful in your hands than in ours." Fred said sincerely.
"We can all use it." Andy smiled.
After borrowing the Marauder's Map, Andy returned to Hermione and made an "OK" gesture.
"With the map, we can track Professor Snape's whereabouts." Hermione breathed a sigh of relief.
Andy thought for a moment, "Hermione, during this period, we'd better not have any contact with Professor Snape alone, and don't mention anything about Voldemort in front of him."
"Also... you have to learn the brain block as soon as possible!"
Hermione was stunned, "Brain block?"
Andy nodded and said seriously: "If you really want to participate, brain block is the magic you must master...especially in front of Professor Snape."
Hermione frowned and said: "You mean, Professor Snape will use Legilimency on us?"
"We have to be on guard." Andy said seriously.
"Okay!" Hermione nodded and said: "It's not bad to learn one more magic."
"Protecting the secrets of the brain... This is a very useful magic. If you want to become the Minister of Magic in the future, this is the magic you must master." Andy said.
After lunch, George and Fred finally delivered the Marauder's Map.
After waiting at the door of the hall for a while, Harry and Ron also came down from upstairs with complicated faces.
"Andy!"
Harry said hello, "Let's talk outside."
"Yeah!" Andy naturally had no objection.
Arriving outside the castle, Andy first asked, "Harry, what did Headmaster Dumbledore say?"
Harry shrugged helplessly, "He asked us to keep it secret - oh, this certainly doesn't include you. In addition, Professor Dumbledore asked us not to act rashly, and it's best to pretend that we know nothing. He will personally investigate Snape's affairs."
Andy and Hermione looked at each other. Sure enough, Dumbledore knew something.
Andy asked, "What do you think?"
Harry hesitated for a while, and said seriously, "I don't know, but I think we can secretly investigate Snape's secrets."
Andy nodded and said, "Okay! From now on, we will split into two groups to act, Hermione and I in one group, and you and Ron in one group. When we have any intelligence, we will communicate with each other."
After a pause, Andy added, "Remember, we only collect intelligence. Apart from that, no matter what happens, we cannot get involved."
Hearing what Andy said, both Harry and Ron felt that there was no problem.
Only collect intelligence... In this way, you can not only investigate Snape's secrets, but also fulfill Dumbledore's instructions - don't act rashly.
Ron said more, "What if Snape attacks the young wizard?"
Hermione rolled her eyes, "If you rush to save someone, there will be two people attacked."
Ron's face immediately turned red.
Andy quickly said: "I say it again, no matter what situation we encounter, we cannot act rashly. If you see Snape attacking the little wizard, report it to Dumbledore immediately."
"In fact, I fought with Snape once, in his office. Snape's magical attainments are very high, and we are not able to deal with him."
Harry and Ron shouted in unison: "What!? Have you fought with Snape?"
Harry showed a shocked expression, "Andy, you actually made it out alive."
"Cool~"
Ron said with admiration: "Brother, tell me in detail. Merlin's beard! You actually had a fight with Snape in his office..."
"Did something happen between you two? Is he going to deduct points from you, or let you dissect the toad's stomach?"
