Chapter 780

Snape threw the Sorcerer's Stone to Dumbledore.

"Although it looks boring, for Tom, this is the difference between heaven and earth. Even if he smashed this mirror, he wouldn't be able to get the Sorcerer's Stone."

Dumbledore smiled and put the Sorcerer's Stone back into the mirror.

Then he stopped talking.

Snape didn't know what to say either, so he stood silently on the edge, waiting for Harry and... Darren to come over.

But the first to come was Quirrell.

He didn't say a word, just testing around the mirror with all kinds of spells.

Snape and Dumbledore didn't speak either.

They knew of each other's existence, but were too lazy to talk.

But Snape knew that Harry and... Darren were about to come over.

Sure enough.

A black-haired, green-eyed guy rushed in recklessly.

"It's you!"

As soon as Harry Potter came in, he made Snape laugh.

This guy really persistently believed that he was the one stealing the Sorcerer's Stone.

Look at Quirrell again.

This guy is even more interestingly explaining to Harry Potter.

Two mortal enemies, yet they appear quite harmonious.

Until.

A hissing sound.

Like the sound of pouring water into fire.

Then Snape saw Darren.

Uh, Darren, whose Invisibility Cloak had failed...

775

"The Invisibility Cloak you bought..."

Dumbledore looked at him with an expression of "that's it."

Snape opened his mouth.

He really didn't expect that the first reason for Darren's exposure would actually have something to do with him.

This behavior stunned Quirrell. Even Voldemort revealed his face because of this. He laughed loudly, looking extremely happy.

Snape pursed his lips in annoyance.

If he had known, he wouldn't have prepared an Invisibility Cloak for the little brat.

"Why aren't you surprised at all that it's me?"

Because of Darren's calmness, Voldemort finally stopped laughing.

He began to ask with interest.

Snape listened to Voldemort's questioning, and only then noticed that Darren was actually not surprised at all that Quirrell was here.

Could it be that Darren never suspected it was him?

"No, I knew from the beginning it wasn't Professor Snape; he is very good to me..."

How is he good? It's just ordinary.

He never gave him any special treatment; why does this child think he is very good?

"The professor is so good, gentle, kind; I can't imagine what the professor would look like doing bad things!"

The little brat was still there talking endlessly.

Snape blushed rarely.

He was so embarrassed by this little brat's nonsense that he didn't want to listen.

Voldemort sneered at his foolish words.

After another round of meaningless conversation, they angered Voldemort.

"Since you both think the Sorcerer's Stone isn't mine, it seems I have to choose one of you to accept punishment. Harry Potter, it's you..."

Voldemort laughed wildly. He raised his wand and pointed it at Harry. Snape looked at Dumbledore.

Dumbledore closed his eyes.

Clearly, he felt this was something the Savior needed to endure.

But this is the Cruciatus Curse!

Snape subconsciously wanted to stop it, but his wand was snatched by Dumbledore.

He shook his head silently.

Snape looked over there with trembling hands. He thought Harry Potter would be lying there, but Darren, Darren Potter, was lying there instead.

"Ha, Harry, you hurry... hurry and go..."

The little brat's face was extremely pale, his voice weak, screaming almost every second.

By the end, he didn't even have the strength to scream.

He curled up on the ground, covered in cold sweat.

Clearly this was real, not the kind of acting Becky did.

But, Dumbledore, Savior cultivation plan, why let an innocent child suffer torture?

Will he die?

He might even become a fool like the Longbottoms! You cultivate your Savior, why implicate the little brat?

He almost wanted to grab Dumbledore and question him.

But Dumbledore looked at him seriously, telling him to calm down and not ruin things, otherwise Darren's curse would have been suffered in vain.

Yes! Suffered in vain! I don't know how many minutes.

Snape watched Darren close his eyes, not knowing if he was alive or dead, watching Harry being pierced through the chest by the black energy Voldemort had turned into.

Only then did he stumble to Darren's side and carefully feed him the potion.

"Severus, this is necessary..."

Dumbledore walked up to Harry and Darren.

He wanted to check the state of the two children, but was forced back by Snape's fierce gaze.

"Dumbledore, don't you touch them!"

What greatest Headmaster, he's just a coward who leaves the responsibility to children to complete!

"I really don't know how you defeated Grindelwald. Maybe it's just like the tabloids wrote, you just released a handkerchief, ha!"

"Severus... I have no choice... If I had even the slightest choice, I wouldn't let the children do this kind of thing..."

Dumbledore whispered wearily.

"You are Dumbledore..."

"Yes, I am Dumbledore... but I am not omnipotent, Severus. You must admit this fact; I am old..."

"But you can kill him... you can do it. Even if you are old, you can do it. You can completely kill him... or what else do you want me to do? I can do anything..."

Snape pleaded as he looked at the old man in front of him.

They are still children.

When he saw the two children lying there not knowing if they were alive or dead, it was as if he had returned to that night.

Clearly he could do anything, why couldn't he let him do it, and let the children have a normal school life?

"Yes, Severus, you are very right, Tom can be killed... even if I am old, I can kill him again... but what about afterwards?"

"What afterwards?"

"Harry killed him once, but he lived again... I am trying my best to kill him now, but after I die... what if he lives again?"

Snape trembled his lips.

"But... but they are still children..."

"Yes, but the prophecy dragged them in... Darren is innocent, but he is Harry Potter's brother. No Death Eater will let him go because the Savior's brother is innocent, do you understand?"

Dumbledore said seriously.
