Chapter 53: Bias?!!

~6 min read 1,151 words

Snape’s mood suddenly turned bad.

He began his fault-finding activity in the classroom again.

Especially Harry Potter’s angry face, which gave him satisfying comfort.

Until.

"Bang!"

Snape turned around quickly.

Who was it?

Who blew up their cauldron?

Every year there were people like this.

Speaking of which, he should suggest to Dumbledore that those without potion talent be expelled from his classroom.

It was really too annoying.

Snape thought unhappily.

He wasn't in a hurry at all.

Those cubs should be taught a lesson.

If potion spills on you, you’ll get boils, and then you can roll off to the hospital wing!

Who knew that just as he was thinking this, he saw Darren Potter hugging that idiot’s cauldron and running toward the door.

Fool!

Idiot!

That’s potion, okay?

Using your hands to hug it?

Is he not afraid of lying in the hospital wing for a while?

Madam Pomfrey said that on the train, because he was worried about drinking potion, he would sleep in the hospital wing for three days, and he was even a bit afraid to drink the potion.

And now he’s not afraid anymore?

He knew it, that younger cub was kind to the point of stupidity.

The Sorting Hat was simply crazy, sorting this kind of person into Slytherin?

"Evanesco!"

Snape chased after Darren Potter and waved his wand to clean up the pile of things in his hands.

He even specifically looked at the younger cub’s hands; they were white and tender. Very good, luckily they were preserved; he had thought he would have to go to St. Mungo’s to see him!

Snape smiled mockingly.

He picked up his wand, wanting to knock it on the younger cub’s head.

However, looking at those eyes, he endured it in the end.

"Are you crazy? You... get back to your seat!"

He had almost just finished speaking when he became furious again.

If he didn't give that Potter cub a lesson, would that younger cub ever be able to correct his flaw of being too kind?

It was just that he couldn't bring himself to pull him back and scold him again.

Forget it.

He looked at Neville.

"You idiot...~"

Hmph, he should have scolded that younger cub like this just now! ===== CHAPTER 128 =====

Snape thought angrily.

In the common room in the afternoon.

Snape and Dumbledore were guarding there early.

They were invisible in the common room.

Waiting for Darren’s return.

6:00 PM.

Finally, the younger cub pushed open the common room door.

The younger cub was quite happy when he returned.

It wasn't until he saw everyone there that he remembered he had to receive punishment.

Snape revealed a mocking look.

What were you doing earlier?

He noticed Dumbledore nearby, staring seriously at Darren’s every move.

He thought that the younger cub might never know in his life that the great white wizard was actually this kind of person behind the scenes.

Next was the younger cub’s punishment.

Bei Qi acted very convincingly.

He even suspected that the younger cub had really been subjected to the Cruciatus Curse.

Fortunately, he could see the younger cub screaming in his mouth, looking at Bei Qi with foolish eyes.

Just as he thought, the other Slytherin students were still just students and weren't too bad.

They couldn't stand the younger cub receiving the Cruciatus Curse for a long time and chose to give up the opportunity to punish him.

The younger cub successfully muddled through.

"You should be at ease now, Dumbledore!"

Snape turned back to look at Dumbledore.

From beginning to end, this child hadn't shown any thought of regretting meeting Harry, persistently stating that Harry was his brother.

Even if it violated Slytherin’s rules, he would still go.

With such kindness, he didn't think Darren would become what they were worried about.

"Severus, just as I said, you have to forgive an old man’s pain, but perhaps I still need your help; I need you to appear in front of him..."

"In front of him?"

Snape snorted coldly and continued angrily: "You want me to appear when he is feeling guilty, forcing him to blurt out that he cheated?"

That child couldn't tell a lie at all.

His sudden appearance now was no less than a thunderclap to that child.

"Honesty is also a quality of kindness. Of course, I still need to determine one last point: what decision will this child make under your questioning?"

Hah!

Truly worthy of being the greatest white wizard; even for such a small matter, he had to observe it personally.

Snape left the common room with a sneer, and after restoring his figure in his office, he came to the common room again.

This time, except for the invisible Dumbledore, only Darren was left in the common room.

"If I remember correctly, after being hit by the Cruciatus Curse, you should be lying in your dormitory right now!"

He said coldly.

Even if it was a fake Cruciatus Curse, the younger cub had been hit by several spells and it had lasted for ten minutes.

According to his thinking, this younger cub should have gone to the hospital wing!

Following Dumbledore’s instructions, he revealed an expression of seeing through everything.

Sure enough, the younger cub was scared.

"Professor, it, it was me, I cheated and used my power, it has nothing to do with anyone else!"

Snape heard the younger cub say with a pale face.

He pursed his lips.

He glared at Dumbledore.

Must you force this kind-to-the-point-of-stupidity younger cub like this?

Dumbledore’s expression looked much more relaxed.

Yes, the younger cub Darren didn't expose Bei Qi, which meant he valued friendship and wasn't someone who would casually push responsibility onto others.

Yes, Dumbledore knew that hearing such words was indeed something to be satisfied with!

Snape puffed air out of his nose.

He saw the younger cub secretly wipe away tears, looking extremely pitiful.

That younger cub must be very scared, sad, and worried in his heart right now...

Hmph, the greatest white wizard, is this what he does every day?

Snape despised him in his heart, and finally comforted the younger cub with one sentence.

Although looking at the younger cub’s appearance, it seemed to have been of no use at all.

Hmph, Dumbledore’s good deed!

Waving his hand to let Darren leave, Snape looked at Dumbledore with a cold face and said angrily: "You should leave too; it seems sweets have confused your brain, actually making you suspect this fool. I hope next time, you won't disturb me with such boring matters again!"

He turned and left angrily.

He heard Dumbledore’s slightly serious voice behind him say: "Severus, Harry is also her child; you shouldn't be so biased."

Biased?

How am I biased toward that younger cub Darren?

They are treated the same; is Dumbledore blind?
