Chapter 210 Let’s Get Started
"Professor, here is the list of students who will go home for the Halloween weekend this year."
"Put it down."
"Okay."
Lu Yunkai put a roll of parchment on Snape's desk in a proper manner, then turned around and planned to leave the office.
It was the last Thursday before Halloween, and Lu Yunkai had just completed another job as the male class leader: counting the list of students who will go home for the Halloween weekend.
"Wait a minute." Snape put down the potion bottle in his hand and looked at Lu Yunkai.
"Anything else?"
"Did you quarrel with Draco some time ago?"
"No! Who said that?" Lu Yunkai was stunned, "After the Quidditch game last week, we celebrated together in the lounge!"
"Yeah. That's good. I see that he seems to have rarely interacted with you recently. I thought you had some unpleasantness."
"... Professor, don't beat around the bush with me? Can you get straight to the point?" Lu Yunkai had a strange expression on his face.
Would Snape care about his relationship with Malfoy? Not to mention that it was totally unnecessary, he didn't have the time to do it!
"Smelly boy." Snape coughed awkwardly, waved his hand, and threw a spell on the door.
Anti-eavesdropping spell, this, Lu Yunkai is familiar with it.
Snape and Lu Yunkai have talked about some secret things in the office, and this is the first time Lu Yunkai has seen him use this spell...
"Does what happened this morning have anything to do with you?" Snape's expression was very serious.
Also gloomy.
"Morning? What happened?"
Lu Yunkai was stunned.
Then he reacted instantly, his eyelids twitched.
Recently, the only thing that Snape can talk about so mysteriously is probably that?
Finally here?
"...Are you crazy???"
Snape saw Lu Yunkai's little action, and was furious, pointing the wand in his hand at Lu Yunkai.
"Professor, what are you talking about?" Lu Yunkai decided to play dumb.
"Don't play dumb!! How could you not know about this! Is there anyone else besides you around the Dark Lord now?" Snape asked angrily.
"Yes." Lu Yunkai nodded, "Nagini."
"I said human! Not snake!!"
"It's a human! During the summer vacation, I found a way to remove the blood curse in Bulgaria and turned the snake back into a human."
"Blood curse?" Snape was stunned for a moment.
"Don't you know? Nagini is a blood curse orc." Lu Yunkai nodded, "So, what happened to Voldemort?"
"This morning, there was a large-scale riot in Azkaban." Snape's eyes narrowed, as if he was examining Lu Yunkai's expression, "A group of Death Eaters got wands from nowhere and tried to escape from Azkaban."
"...How many died?"
Lu Yunkai tried hard to ensure that his expression would not fluctuate too much, and asked.
"Sure enough, this matter has something to do with you?" Hearing that Lu Yunkai was not concerned about where the wand came from, but how many people escaped successfully, Snape became furious again, "Do you know what you are doing? You are playing with fire!!"
"Professor, if Crouch Jr. can get out of Azkaban, the group of people imprisoned inside will be able to get out sooner or later." Lu Yunkai shook his head, "I only care about how many people died this time?"
"Damn it!" Snape's wand flew out a spell towards Lu Yunkai.
Lu Yunkai, who was well prepared, immediately cast a counter-spell.
The two spells collided and both missed.
"Because of your nonsense, nine people died in Azkaban today! Nine in total! One of my best friends also died!!"
"Professor, let me remind you that you are a professor at Hogwarts now. It doesn't seem to be in your position to feel sorry for the Death Eaters." The wand in Lu Yunkai's hand entered a state of readiness.
"..."
Snape took a deep breath and regained his composure.
The room was quiet.
"So, the Ministry of Magic received some relevant reminders before, saying that the Dark Lord was organizing a prison break, and it was you who did it?" Snape asked again.
"Nagini said she would be responsible, and I didn't care. I only provided her with the wand." Lu Yunkai said frankly.
Although he didn't quite understand why Snape was sad for his friend in Azkaban, he decided not to touch the bad luck and put the blame on Nagini.
"Nagini?? It's the most loyal servant of the Dark Lord..."
"A kind blood-cursed orc, turned into a beast, and was then ordered by Voldemort to kill so many people. Suddenly one day she regained her human form and conscience... Professor, what do you think will happen?" Lu Yunkai spread his hands.
Silence again.
Snape's chest was heaving violently.
"Professor, these nine people you mentioned can't all be Death Eaters, right?" Lu Yunkai shook his head, "I want to know how many people managed to escape this time."
"What? You don't even plan to let them go?" Snape glanced at Lu Yunkai coldly,
"Professor, do I need to remind you again?" Lu Yunkai asked coldly.
Once again, silence.
"Two escaped. Antonin Dolohov and Bellatrix Lestrange." Snape said coldly, "But with these two here, it should be dark soon." A group of people will gather around the devil."
"...Are many Death Eaters escaping justice?"
"More than you think. Otherwise, do you think the previous riots outside the World Cup stadium were caused by the fans themselves?" Snape snorted, "By the way, there is one more thing I have to tell you. It's your fault. Fu, an ancient family may have completely lost its inheritance in this riot."
"Are any Death Eaters imprisoned for life in Azkaban?" Lu Yunkai was stunned.
"..."
"It's none of my business! Is Azkaban humane enough to allow the prisoners inside to continue their family lineage?" Lu Yunkai looked ridiculous.
"...Thanks to you, I have to go back to the Dark Lord." Snape decided not to talk about it.
He suddenly felt that the student he once admired most in front of him had become so disgusting.
"Do you need me to remind Nagini?" Lu Yunkai asked.
"No need." Snape's expression improved slightly, but his face was still dark, "You don't want to ask me what I'm going to do?"
"Don't ask." Lu Yunkai shook his head, "I have no interest in what Dumbledore arranged for you to do."
"..."
Snape reached out and rubbed his head. He had a headache.
This brat is really smart when he should be smart, but when he should be stupid...why isn't he stupid at all? !
Once again, the room fell into silence.
A long time.
"Professor, if nothing happens, I will first... Oh, by the way, maybe I have to change that list." Lu Yunkai seemed to have remembered something, and reached out to get the list he just put on Snape's desk, " It’s better for me to stay at school this weekend.”
"Aren't you going to take a look at your own record?" Snape glanced at Lu Yunkai.
"Nagini really arranged this, I'm not sure." Lu Yunkai continued to blame, "And I don't want to be interrogated by those who claim to be Voldemort's heroes in Azkaban. A little Crouch It’s enough to make me sick.”
"Humph." Snape did not answer this sentence.
In fact, it's not like he hasn't been worried about this matter...
"Well, I'll leave first, Professor." Lu Yunkai found his name on the list, changed it to detention, put the list away, put it on Snape's desk, and planned to leave.
"Professor Umbridge may take some actions in a while, which may affect you, so be prepared." Snape said meaningfully, "Don't lose your sense of proportion when the time comes."
"Umbridge?" Lu Yunkai was stunned.
What is she going to do?
And...what does it have to do with me? I've been so good lately! !
However, Snape seemed to have no intention of talking to Lu Yunkai anymore, and just waved his hand, indicating that Lu Yunkai could leave.
Lu Yunkai walked out of the room and returned to the lounge.
"Yunkai!! Come here quickly!!"
Just when Lu Yunkai was about to go back to the dormitory to get the communication mirror, and then find a place to contact Irene and ask her to quickly ask Chris to come to school to tell him what happened, Malfoy rushed out of nowhere. When he came out, he grabbed Lu Yunkai and pulled him to an uninhabited corner of the lounge without any explanation.
"What are you doing?" Lu Yunkai was worried and a little irritable. When Malfoy pulled him, he almost got angry.
"I have something to tell you!!" Malfoy looked worried.
Lu Yunkai was stunned.
In the corner, there were only two people, Lu Yunkai and Malfoy.
"My dad just sent me a message telling me that something big happened this morning!" Malfoy said in a low voice.
"...Escape from Azkaban? Why are Mr. Malfoy telling you this?" Lu Yunkai didn't come back to his senses.
Then, he came to his senses almost immediately.
What to do? As for his precious son's colander, if such a big thing happens, he will definitely publicize it everywhere immediately. Therefore, telling Draco is equivalent to telling Lu Yunkai! !
"He asked me to be careful and not go home this weekend." Malfoy's face lost all that aristocratic pride and calmness.
Full of panic.
I also forgot to ask Lu Yunkai how he knew it...
"Then I won't go back. I won't go back either." Lu Yunkai nodded, "Stay in school for a while, and wait until Mr. Malfoy says it's safe before you leave Hogwarts."
"I'm worried about my dad and my mom!!" Malfoy glared at Lu Yunkai.
"What's there to worry about...Shouldn't your father be friends with them?"
"But they entered Azkaban, and my father didn't! God knows if they will cause trouble for my parents because of this matter. When my father was talking to me just now, he looked several years older."
"Even if they cause trouble for your parents, what can you do?" Lu Yunkai asked back.
Malfoy opened his mouth, speechless.
Quiet.
"It's useless to worry. You can only trust your parents." Lu Yunkai shook his head, "Stay in school honestly and don't cause trouble for them."
"...It's no use, but I'm still worried!!" Malfoy sighed and fell silent.
Lu Yunkai could only pat Malfoy on the shoulder and leave.
…
"Chris? I haven't seen it for a few days!"
"What??"
In the dormitory, Lu Yunkai looked at Irene in the mirror and was stunned.
Will that cat have any accidents?
Isn't it possible? !
