Chapter 748: How is that possible?!!

The scene shifted again.

Snape was standing at the entrance of the Gryffindor common room.

Lily was also standing there with her arms crossed.

Snape was constantly apologizing to Lily.

"I'm sorry..."

"I'm not interested, don't waste your breath!"

Lily looked at him with a sneer.

"Enough, I only came out because I heard Mary say you were going to sleep here."

"I really am going to sleep here, I'm really sorry, I shouldn't have..."

Lily interrupted him.

"Don't say anymore, I know you just blurted it out."

"For so many years, my friends have all thought it was incredible that I was friends with you, and every time I forgave you."

"But what about you?"

"You never listened to me, I told you not to associate with those people, what did you do? You did nothing, you still wanted to be with them."

"You've already made up your mind to follow the Dark Lord, haven't you?"

"Then, tell me, what else is there for me to say to you?"

"I know you just blurted out the word Mudblood, you didn't say it to me on purpose."

"But you call people of my background that way, tell me, what difference is there between me and them?"

Snape struggled to say something else.

But Lily had already looked at him with contempt.

She pushed the door open and went in.

The scene shifted again.

This time it was on a desolate, cold mountain top.

Snape was standing there nervously, holding his wand.

He seemed extremely terrified.

He was waiting for someone.

Finally, a flash of white light passed. Snape fell to the ground.

His wand slipped from his hand.

He shouted in fear: "Don't kill me! That wasn't my intention!"

Dumbledore appeared in front of Snape.

He didn't look much younger.

He looked at Snape mockingly and said: "Severus, we meet again. What message did your master entrust you to bring me?"

"No message... I am, I came for myself, I beg you... I brought a warning..."

Snape knelt on the ground nervously.

"What kind of warning could a Death Eater bring me?"

"It's, it's that prophecy... Trelawney's prophecy..."

"How much did you tell your master?"

"Everything, everything I heard... He, he has chosen Lily Evans..."

"That prophecy didn't say it was a woman!"

"He has chosen Lily Evans's son, Harry Potter... He is going to kill their whole family..."

Snape covered his face in pain.

Dumbledore looked at him mockingly.

"Lily Evans is so important to you, did you never beg your master?"

"I begged him, I begged him to spare Lily..."

"You truly disgust me, you only want to save her, but you don't care about her husband or her child at all!"

Snape said nothing. He covered his face.

After a long time, he raised his head.

"Then hide her... hide them... I beg you..."

"What can you give me?"

"Everything, my everything!"

The mountain top disappeared.

Snape was sitting in Dumbledore's office.

He let out a howl like a wild beast.

Dumbledore stood in front of him.

After a long time, Snape finally raised his head.

"I, I thought... you would protect them well..."

"She and James mistakenly trusted someone else... just like you, didn't you also beg Voldemort?"

Snape's breathing was weak and powerless.

He seemed to have lost all hope of living.

"Her son survived."

Dumbledore said.

Snape showed an expression of disgust.

"Her son is still alive, he has Lily's green eyes..."

Snape was utterly devastated.

"It's gone... it's all gone, I wish it were me who died..."

"That's all useless now, you know what she died for... the path ahead of you is very clear!"

Snape was dazed, it took a long time for Dumbledore's words to make him understand.

"What do you mean?"

"Lily is dead, but the Dark Lord is still alive, you must protect her child, as long as the Dark Lord returns, that child will face the greatest danger!"

Snape was silent.

Finally, he stood up.

"Very well... fine, I will protect him, but you swear... you swear never to tell him... Potter's son... you swear!"

"If you insist..."

Dumbledore said with pity and a sigh.

The office disappeared...

This time it was in the orphanage.

Snape was talking to Dumbledore.

"I don't dare to look at him, he is exactly like Lily, I can't face him... I can't face him at all, every time I see him, I think it's Lily..." Dumbledore laughed.

"You must hold on, I see Darren is a very smart child, be careful he finds out you like him very much."

The scene shifted.

Still in Dumbledore's office.

Snape was looking at Dumbledore unhappily.

"What exactly are you trying to do? That child is so well-behaved, he is a true genius, I think he is ten thousand times better than Harry Potter!"

Dumbledore was reading a copy of "Today's Transfiguration," and without looking up, he said: "Believe me, Harry is also a good child."

"Other teachers also say Harry is very humble and very likable."

"Keep an eye on Quirrell, will you? I think Quirrell is very strange, he has some interest in Darren."

The scene changed again.

Snape was talking to Lucius.

"Why did you put that thing into the school? Darren Potter and Harry Potter almost died!"

Snape said angrily.

Lucius's face was a bit guilty.

"It wasn't that Weasley mutt wanting to check for contraband, and I didn't know what to do, and selling that person's things was impossible."

"So, I could only let Weasley's little daughter bring it to school, hoping Dumbledore would handle it, who knew it almost..."

"By the way, Draco came back and said he quite likes that Darren Potter, what do you think of him?"

Snape's face softened.

"That child is humble, well-behaved, studies very well, is polite to people, much better than his brother Harry Potter."

"The only flaw is that he's too silly, foolish, always being schemed against, too innocent, every time I see him I'm afraid he'll be schemed against..."

Snape was complaining when he saw Lucius's surprised expression.

"Severus, do you know? Narcissa says the same thing about Draco every time..."

"I just thought I was seeing the parents of some child!"

Snape stood up in embarrassment and anger.

"What child, what father, how could I... hurry up and go!"

Snape pushed Lucius into the fireplace...
