The Strongest Badger at Hogwarts
Chapter 644: firm determination again
Slughorn waved his hands and went straight to Link's side.
He wasn't mad at Snape, in fact, he knew his former student very well.
Knowing how talented Snape was, he also knew how stinky this guy was.
If Slughorn himself represents a type of Slytherin that is sociable, intriguing, witty, and arrogant.
Then Snape belongs to another type of character who often appears in Slytherin. This kind of person may have a very high talent, but at the same time, he is also very autistic and stubborn, and sometimes it even causes tragedy.
Slughorn has come into contact with a lot of these people, so he knows that talking about these people is useless.
And after Slughorn left, it was Harry's turn to suffer.
When Snape scolded Slughorn just now, he scolded him along the way.
Of course, he was already used to this kind of thing.
The most important thing is that as soon as he sees Snape now, he will instinctively sound the advice Gerald gave him - go to Snape to help place the space anchor.
As soon as he met Snape now, the unprepared Harry could only feel that his heart was beating at a high speed, and he couldn't be nervous.
It is estimated that Snape felt the same way. The two of them didn't know what to say when they met each other. They could only look at each other in silence, so that the surrounding air was filled with a strong smell of embarrassment.
After a long time, Snape finally moved his eyes aside and tried to say:
"Otherwise, let's go to Link's side. I think they are quite lively there."
Despite the suppression of Occlumency, Harry could still hear that Snape's voice was a little stiff.
He felt that Snape might be starting to regret being so mean to Slughorn just now, because if Slughorn was still around, the atmosphere between them would at least be less awkward.
And now, to be honest, going to Link's side is indeed a good choice.
After all, it is more lively there, even if they continue to keep silent, it can always alleviate some of the embarrassment.
It's just that Harry instinctively wanted to refuse.
Link is right there.
Harry's psychological quality is not strong enough that he was still thinking about how to defeat Link a few hours ago, but now he is talking and laughing with others.
And Link's Legilimency spell is very strong, what if Link sees any clues?
It's a pity that Harry's refusal words could not be said, because although Snape used interrogative sentences, he did not give him the right to choose, but walked towards Link alone as soon as the words fell. past.
In desperation, Harry could only keep up.
The location where Link and Emily are located is the very center of the entire banquet hall, and it is also the brightest place.
This is the same as his position in the hearts of everyone on the scene.
Everyone was constantly approaching Link, and everyone surrounded Link and Emily like the moon, and they kept saying flattering words, and some of them were even blatant to the point of embarrassment and disgusting. .
Harry didn't really understand the behavior of these people.
Could it be that Link would like them because they said a few good things?
Stop dreaming.
The expression of Link in the crowd is obviously already fed up with these things, and is just keeping a smile in a formulaic manner, which is enough to show that what those so-called flattery can do is only counterproductive.
So what's the use of flattering Link?
"Are you wondering why these people do this?"
Snape's voice sounded abruptly.
This startled Harry, he took a few steps back suddenly, and looked at Snape in horror.
Snape is also a master at Occlumency and Legilimency, and Harry has been invaded by Snape with Legilimency more than once.
When Snape saw this, the corners of his mouth twitched and he said:
"Don't worry, I didn't read your mind. In fact, that's not necessary. Your expression is so obvious that you have already written all your thoughts on your face."
"Yes... is it?"
Harry covered his face as he spoke.
He felt his cheeks get extremely hot.
Snape ignored him, but looked at Link and continued:
"You also think the picture in front of you is very ironic, don't you? This group of people are obviously doing completely meaningless things, but they are all showing fun."
Harry hesitated for a while, but finally nodded.
And Snape, who noticed this, also had a rare smile on his face and said:
"That's because they don't know Link, what kind of person Link is, and what kind of flattery he likes. So when everything is still unclear, they choose a safe way."
"Safe? I can't see where this is safe. Isn't Link already annoyed by them?"
"But do you think Link will do something unkind to them just because they're constantly flattering and saying disgusting things around?" Snape asked himself and answered, "Of course not. Don't these students like to read "Quotations of Link Foley"? There is a word in it, which is very suitable to describe such a situation - reaching out and not hitting a smiling person. Right now, this group of people is using the crudest and most primitive His words were expressing his kindness to Link.
Although this kind of talk may not have any effect to please Link. But at least it won't attract Link's hatred. After all, they are expressing kindness. Except for a lunatic, who would shoot at a person who is expressing kindness to him? This is what is called security.
Of course, this security is only temporary.
At present, this group of people just don't understand Link's character. I believe that if they and Link have more opportunities to get along. Then soon they will switch strategies and continue to express goodwill and surrender to Link in a gesture and manner more acceptable to other Links. They're definitely professional in that regard, well, exactly like Professor Slughorn. "
At the end, Snape also made a bad joke about Slughorn.
Too bad it didn't make anyone laugh.
Because Harry, his only audience, was looking at him in disbelief at the moment.
Harry really understood one thing through Snape's description just now.
That is, Snape, he is not a big bat who doesn't like to wash his hair at all.
Snape actually knew everything about the sophistication of people, but he just didn't want to use it.
This is the quality that a real double agent should have.
If you think about it carefully, you should know.
If Snape didn't understand anything but had a superb Occlumency, he would have been killed by Voldemort long ago.
After realizing it, Harry stared blankly at Snape.
Gu U </span> He felt that Snape's image had been changing every day since he put aside some of his stereotypes, and now it has become almost unrecognizable.
"Professor Snape, Harry, you are here!"
At this moment, Link's voice suddenly sounded from the side.
This startled the brooding Harry, and almost fell on the ground.
"There's no need to be scared like this, right? I don't know how to eat people."
Link said something inexplicable, then lifted Harry up, put one arm around Harry's shoulder and the other around Snape's shoulder and walked towards the corner of the long table, "Shh! Speaking, I got away with an excuse to ask you guys to talk about things, so don't reveal anything."
Link's words held back what Harry was about to say.
Snape rolled his eyes at Link.
After a few people walked a few steps to the corner, Link breathed a sigh of relief:
"Okay, that's almost it now. I may sound a bit ostentatious to you when I say this, but those guys are really annoying!"
"No, actually... I actually feel the same way."
Out of nervousness, Harry answered somewhat deliberately.
On the other hand, Snape frowned and said:
"So you just made an excuse and left Emily alone to continue to be annoyed by them?"
"No! You misunderstood me, Professor Snape," Link said. "How dare those people talk to Emily when I'm not there? You know Emily is my fiancée. They don't dare to do that, it would be life-threatening."
There was a faint murderous intent in Link's words, and Harry couldn't help shivering because of the irritation. He instinctively glanced in the direction Emily and Link had just been.
Sure enough, the originally gathered crowd had now dispersed, chatting in twos and threes.
Now there are only a few familiar people, such as Professor Slughorn and Ernie, who are still talking to Emily.
Snape nodded slightly and said:
"Even if you pass the test this time. But I still want to warn you, if you dare to let Emily be bullied..."
"Please, Professor Snape, you don't have to talk about these things all the time." Link waved his hand and said, "I've seen everyone how Emily is, this is my fiancee, of course I don't It will make her bullied."
"Why do you think I'm bringing this up? Your mother has already contacted me and said that you refused to officially marry Emily right now. What is this? I'm not your mother, so It's so fooling. You better give me a really plausible reason!"
"Okay, she complained to you again. If you want a reason, I'll give it to you. The reason here is very simple, that is, I'm too busy now, and there will be a lot of things to do next, which is not suitable at all. Wedding with Emily."
As soon as Link said these words, Snape's eyes became sharp again, and his mouth opened slightly before he started to refute.
At this time, Harry next to him took the lead and said:
"Ah? Link, what have you been up to lately? Is it something at the Ministry of Magic?"
After speaking, Harry covered his mouth in a panic.
He understood that what he said just now was a little out of line.
In his capacity, it's really not suitable to inquire about Harry's work in the Ministry of Magic.
This is very likely to cause Link's vigilance when Harry thinks about it.
But he couldn't help but blurt out at that moment.
Fortunately, Link doesn't seem to have any other ideas.
Hearing Harry say this, he raised his eyebrows at Harry with a smile, meaning to thank Harry for helping him change the subject, and then said:
"There is a lot of work in the Ministry of Magic. The main thing going on recently is the expansion of the army. This is not a secret, and you have been staying at Hogwarts until you know it. Now all kinds of recruitment notices in the outside world have spread. In addition, the bidding activities for various ordnance are also in full swing, and it is expected that the real effect will be achieved after a while.”
"Conscription?"
Harry was a little panicked. At this time, he didn't care about the possibility of causing Link's suspicion, and asked directly, "Why are we recruiting again? Didn't we already win the matter with the French Ministry of Magic?"
Link glanced at Harry and said:
"I've heard this phrase from different people no less than twenty times, and I'm honestly curious, why do you all think it's time to enjoy peace? Our enemies have not been completely killed. Elimination, now that we have achieved a temporary victory, we should continue to forge ahead and pursue the victory.”
Hearing this, Snape's face changed, and he stretched out his hand to cover the dark mark on his arm.
He felt that he should understand who the enemy Link was talking about.
If that's the case, then chasing after victory is indeed the best choice.
Because if you want peace, you can't let that enemy continue to exist in this world no matter what!
On the other hand, Harry's expression was a little frightened.
He didn't know as much information as Snape, but he still read a terrible result from Link's words.
"You... are you going to continue to wage war?"
Harry asked tentatively.
Hearing that, Link glanced at him and said:
"Harry, you have to figure out one thing, they are the ones who started the war first, and now we are just fighting back. You can't show mercy to them just because they are weak now, because When they're strong, they don't treat you with the same mercy. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com"
Link's eyes were as sharp as swords, and the stabbing Harry couldn't help but turn his head away, not daring to meet Link's eyes.
At this time, Snape frowned and said:
"You told us these things so easily? Aren't you afraid of the news leaking out?"
"Afraid? Why should I be afraid?" Link sneered disdainfully, "What if the news leaked out and they found out? Could they be able to turn defeat into victory with this news?"
Snape froze for a moment.
Since Voldemort himself was expelled from the country, and the Death Eaters remaining in the magic world of the country were gradually exterminated, he has actually been far away from the core power of Dumbledore and Link.
To put it more aptly, he, the former double agent, has retired.
So he doesn't know much about the relevant information.
He only reacted after hearing what Link said. Compared with the previous mediation meeting between Link and Dumbledore at the International Federation of Wizards, the results of the victory should be better than those announced in the Daily Prophet. Great, otherwise Link wouldn't have such confidence at all.
Snape took a deep breath and started a new wave of inquiries.
For the war that may happen next, he has more doubts that he wants to ask Link.
