Chapter 778
Soon, Christmas was coming, and Snape felt terrible looking at the two lonely children.
Everyone else had a home to return to, only these two children were homeless.
And all of this was caused by him.
The closer it got to Christmas, the more irritable Snape became.
So he decided to deduct points from Harry Potter.
Every time he saw that face, which looked like James Potter's, reveal an angry expression of daring to be angry but not daring to speak, he felt much better.
Ha, Potter is really useful! On Christmas Day.
While checking the safety of various places in the school, Snape discovered that Dumbledore had sent Harry Potter an Invisibility Cloak.
This should be the Potter family's heirloom.
Dumbledore tried every means to make Harry Potter the head of the Potter family, just for this treasure?
Truly worthy of being Harry Potter, the privileges are many.
Thinking of what James had done to him with this Invisibility Cloak in the past.
Snape indignantly bought one for that little brat too.
Hoping the two Potters would fight!
It would be best if Darren Potter took this Invisibility Cloak and swapped it with Harry Potter's.
Hmm, the little brat sent him a few heavy wizard robes, and some warm hand warmers.
Does he think he's as afraid of the cold as that little brat? Snape put on the hand warmers.
He curled his lips in disdain, thinking they weren't as satisfactory as thin hand warmers! ...
At night.
Dumbledore called him out.
Asking him to patrol at night, and also to help lure Harry Potter to the Mirror of Erised.
Pfft, what's there to see in that thing? It's all fake!
But he still didn't refuse.
He teased Harry Potter with a wicked sense of humor.
He heard his breathing, just deliberately pacing around him, and making an expression of being about to catch him.
He listened to Harry Potter's panicked footsteps, imagining the scared face under the Invisibility Cloak, and felt relieved for several years.
Finally, as Dumbledore wished.
The two children sat in front of the Mirror of Erised. He looked at the little brat first. The little brat's look at the mirror was very amazed. He saw quite a lot of things.
A world where no one picks up lost items and doors are left unlocked at night? A future world? Ridiculous!
How could such a world exist?
But it did fit that little brat's personality.
Oh, and he also saw Lily?
Is that the beautiful woman whose eyes are the same as the little brat's? Is she living very happily?
Snape's eyes gradually became hollow.
It was he who caused Lily's death!
Afterwards, every night, Harry Potter would drag the little brat over.
The little brat looked somewhat reluctant.
Snape didn't quite understand; being able to see his parents, this child should be very happy!
"At first, I was indeed addicted to this mirror, but later, I found that it was all fake..."
Yes!
This child had discovered it long ago.
He accompanied Harry Potter every day, watching those scenes that could be called cruel to him.
He was more sober than many people; he didn't indulge in those sorrows at all.
Snape exited the room.
He couldn't bear to hear the rest of those words.
It was he, it was he who caused this child's tragedy.
If this child knew the whole truth, would he want to kill him? He laughed mockingly.
Anyway, he should have died with Lily long ago... because of this matter.
Snape was silent for quite a while.
He even didn't dare to look into Darren's eyes.
Every time he taught Slytherin, it was a torture for him.
Until that night.
Filch said he had caught Harry Potter and asked him to notify Professor McGonagall to deal with her student.
He came to Professor McGonagall in high spirits, and then saw Darren.
What is this kid running out for?
A dragon?
Hagrid that guy raising a dragon? This is truly possible.
So this kid ran over to cover for Harry Potter sending the dragon? And just stood there stupidly blocking the professor.
Completely asking for punishment!
Watching those green eyes lower in guilt after seeing him.
Snape looked away, hating that he couldn't make him better.
Since you're scared, don't come out.
Finally, after Professor McGonagall finished dealing with everyone, the little brat, Malfoy, and he were left behind.
"Speak!"
From Malfoy's mouth, Snape learned more.
He even saw the handiwork of the Dark Lord and Dumbledore in it.
Dragon egg, Hagrid... hehe. Everyone is a part of the plan.
Only... Darren...
Snape was full of admiration for him.
Why is he involved in everything? Can't he just stay in the dormitory properly?
And that detention, what does he want to come for?
That is what Dumbledore uses to cultivate the Savior; why is he following along? Since he likes detention so much.
Then.
"Detention! Besides Professor McGonagall... you will also serve a week of detention with me!"
Stupidly.
Even now he wants to lie to him, saying everything was his prank.
God!
If this little brat learned to play pranks, would he still be this worried? Even being punished with detention himself, he is still worrying about Harry Potter.
How could anything happen to Harry Potter?
He is the Savior! What is he?
He is just a little orphan who was taken away at birth, worrying about the Savior's affairs all day long!
...The detention arranged by Dumbledore was indeed in the Forbidden Forest.
He didn't go that day because Dumbledore thought that if too many people went, it would make the Dark Lord wary.
He wanted Harry to face the Dark Lord once.
And Dumbledore promised him that he wouldn't let other children be implicated.
Specifically referring to Darren.
But despite being guaranteed by Dumbledore, Darren was still sent to the hospital wing. This wasn't being implicated; it was purely caused by him going up to save the unicorn himself.
Only then did he and Dumbledore know that Darren was also a soul healer.
Snape was panicked for a moment.
Wizards possessing soul healing arts are very rare in the wizarding world.
Because no matter how heavy the injuries are, they can save them.
Even the Avada Kedavra curse, as long as they are nearby, there is a certain chance they can save them.
But they have to use mental power to save them.
Exhausting mental power can even lead to death.
