——

Wearing the Invisibility Cloak, Lockhart walked through the familiar Hogwarts campus. It was the end of the last class in the morning, and there were students passing by, Ginny should be among them , Lockhart carefully avoided the person.

School, the word comes from the Greek word "skhole", which means leisure time - because in ancient Greece, only the wealthy and prestigious bourgeoisie could have leisure time to enjoy the pleasure of learning and research.

But now, these children, who should be enjoying the fun of learning, are looking sad.

Not only are they indoctrinated every day with the idea that Muggles are trash, but the scope of their learning ranges from all kinds of magical and interesting practical magic and up to astronomy and geography, down to rune arithmetic - narrowed down to attacks and damaging spells centered on black magic , but also use classmates as experimental subjects. Not to mention the strict and brutal management of Hogwarts under the Death Eaters. People who don't know come to visit, maybe they will mistakenly think that they have entered a dark wizard military school for the purpose of training wizards to be Muggle exterminators.

But it was all about to end, and Lockhart walked cautiously against the wall.

McGonagall followed the crowd of students returning to the common room with a sad face, and she looked even older at her age. Lockhart's first reaction was to hide his aura, because a wizard of Mag's level might find himself wearing an invisibility cloak if he was a little careful. It would be bad if she showed something strange and was discovered by the Death Eaters. But after the two passed by, he had another idea: According to the previous plan, he would tell her the secret about Snape on the last day before the action at the end of the month, but now that he is here, maybe call her Come and discuss together, can you save some effort?

He sneaked to the front and back of the principal's office door, contacted Snape and McGonagall with a note under the invisibility cloak, asked the former for a new entry password, and asked the latter to come to the principal's office to see him.

——

Snape was still sitting quietly behind the headmaster's desk, with a few sheets of paper on the table in front of him. On it was the name of the student who made the most recent mistake and what the Death Eater professors suggested to do. If Lockhart reads it, you will find that most of the above are trivial things, and these students who make mistakes are basically members of h.a.

"Almost?" Snape put down his pen, he knew. This may be the last batch of documents of the same type that he has reviewed.

"Well, McGonagall will come later." Lockhart nodded at him, then sat down in one of the chairs. "Get ready to say something to her."

"What, I'm not a traitor to the Order of the Phoenix. I'm a great double agent?" Snape sneered. "I'm here to avenge myself, unlike all of you who are self-sacrificing heroes. I just want to know now. What grand plan do you have to destroy the Dark Lord's Horcrux or even kill him while taking back the Ministry of Magic?"

"When McGonagall is here, let's talk about it—"

As soon as Lockhart's voice fell, Mag hurried into the principal's office. She passed by Lockhart just now, and she was not far from here. After receiving the news on the note, she came immediately, for fear Lockhart and Snape would fight or even fight.

But look inside. The scene in the headmaster's office immediately terrified her: Lockhart was leaning back in his chair, Snape was sitting quietly behind the table, his hands on the table, no one was holding a wand, and the atmosphere seemed harmonious. The two were discussing what to eat for lunch.

Her first reaction was that Lockhart and Snape were both Death Eaters, the former was lurking in the Order of the Phoenix, planning a grand plan that seemed to target the Death Eaters, but in fact was preparing to destroy all the Order of the Phoenix and the Order of the Phoenix. The Aurors are wiped out!

The second reaction is - now that they are going to start with themselves, she must spread the news!

McGonagall quickly drew out her wand and placed the Iron Armor on herself, and quickly glanced around the principal's office. At the same time, he retreated to the door, but there were no other wizards in sight, nor any spells flying towards him.

"Professor McGonagall, don't be nervous." Lockhart smiled at her. "Come in and discuss how to deal with the mysterious man."

"Gidro, you—" McGonagall looked at Lockhart vigilantly, if the two wizards were to deal with her, then she was determined not to leave this room easily, "what's the matter with him, don't you? Already controlled him with the Imperius Curse?"

"Normal Imperius. I can break free in seconds," Snape said coldly, "but I've never actually been hit by an enemy's Imperius."

"Professor McGonagall, Severus is the Order of the Phoenix undercover for the Death Eaters—"

"That's what we thought!" McGonagall didn't know who to use her wand in her panic, "Gidro, when you were in school, I said I would teach you Animagus to transform and let you come to my house. , what did I treat you to eat that time?"

"I didn't go to your house. I was busy writing papers for other classmates for a fee, and I also thought that the transformation of Animagus was a useless skill." Lockhart explained softly: "Dumbledore was killed by Severer. Killing him was just a bitter game - to help him win the trust of the mysterious man, he was seriously injured and would not live long."

"This—" McGonagall thought for a while and calmed down: the possibility that Lockhart was a Death Eater was almost zero, but she couldn't accept it if she believed that Snape had not defected.

"Hermione and Ginny know about Severus, you can ask them to prove it." Lockhart continued, "The two girls can prove that Sever resurrected me."

"Resurrection?" McGonagall asked in surprise. "So the rumor of your death not long ago was true, not that you were seriously injured or hidden? Then you must have made him do it during the resurrection. Hands and feet~lightnovelpub.net~ so they are controlled!"

"Professor McGonagall, worthy of being the dean of Gryffindor, I suspect that Harry's brain hole always likes whimsy and is taught by you... But I don't want to tell you the process of my resurrection in detail now, I will have time later. Besides... Severus didn't control me."

"Other than that, I have no other way to prove my position. You can choose to believe it now and sit down, or just stand at the door with your wand and listen to us, Minerva." Snape looked indifferent, "but please Don't run out and yell, the other Death Eaters in the school are real."

"Okay, then you talk." Mag still didn't dare to relax his nerves.

"On May 1st, we will attack the Ministry of Magic, you already know that." With a wave of Lockhart's hand, a chair flew to Professor McGonagall, but she didn't sit down. "On the evening of April 30th, I asked you to help Harry drive away Severus, and capture the other Death Eaters and use them to attract reinforcements from the Ministry of Magic - have you ever wondered why I and you use When the note contacted, stressed that you should drive Severus away, not kill or capture him?"

"I thought you were worried that I wasn't his match," McGonagall said. "Could it be—"

"After you drive him away, he'll go with me to another place to deal with You-Know-Who," Lockhart said, "I'm telling you now, mainly because I'm worried that the rest of the Order of the Phoenix, especially Harry, will see him too much. Excited, it's not good to accidentally hurt Severus-"

"Hey—" Snape laughed disdainfully: "Thank you for your concern, Gilderoy. But even if Potter and his godfather join forces against me, I'll be able to escape without a hair. ."
