Chapter 64 Speculation

November has not yet officially arrived, and the weather is gradually getting colder, and the cellar seems to be always cold regardless of the season. Green icy flames when powdered.

Snape, who was used to the cold, turned on the fireplace abnormally today, and sank deep into the sofa to feel the rare warmth.His eyes were focused on the dancing flames, his thoughts gradually drifted to the goblet burning with blue and white flames, and the fragments he saw in the room next to the auditorium at night kept turning in his mind... Karkaroff gloated His eyes, Maxim’s mocking smile, Dumbledore’s serious face, Crouch’s abnormally haggard figure… Finally, they were fixed in Evan’s meaningful sight last night…

What happened tonight must have something to do with Evan, Snape knew this very well.But why did Evan choose to let Harry compete?

Snape put his hands into a tower shape, put his fingertips on his chin, and sorted out the messy thoughts in his head...

Evan seems to still retain the kindness of his original character. Even though Harry has been dangling in front of him, he has never done anything against Harry, and he has clearly targeted Lily from the beginning.Whether it is the arrangement of the Ministry of Magic, the confrontation in the struggle for power, or the inducing Harry to favor the Death Eaters, it is ultimately to hit Lily.But this time he chose to put Harry in danger, which was completely inconsistent with his previous style!Or...he is planning a very important action, this action is so important that he has to calculate Harry to be the most likely to achieve the desired effect... and the one who cares about Harry the most and will voluntarily step into the trap because he is worried about the other party Lily is the only one...

Yes, step in voluntarily... Evan's calculations this time are arranged aboveboard, telling Lily clearly that someone is murdering Harry, and this is only the first step, and there will be other arrangements behind it.

But even if Lily saw it, so what?So what if she knew that there was a huge danger lurking behind it?She still has to follow Evan's wishes step by step and willingly step into the trap—because the bait is her son she cares about the most, she must take some action to save Harry...

But is it worth setting up what seems like a huge operation just for a little Lily Potter?No, it won't be that simple, Evan must have a bigger conspiracy...

Of course, Snape would not be so self-righteous that he thought that Evan was jealous of him, so he would target Lily again and again. He speculated that Evan would act suddenly and set up this game, it must be because Lily or the Order of the Phoenix had something that could threaten him The presence.But what would this thing be?

Snape quickly thought of the Ravenclaw diadem that had fallen into Lily's hands.Judging from Evan's attitude, the damage to his soul seems to be related to it. Is it really because of what Lily did through the crown that hurt Evan?

If this is the case, Evan seems to be very distrustful of his promise to get back the crown, so he set up this game himself...

Trying to suppress the disappointment in his heart, Snape tried his best to calm himself down: It's normal for Evan not to trust him now, it's because he hurt Evan too much...

Snape suddenly thought that even if Evan set up this game, he might not get the crown back.Even if Harry is used as a bargaining chip, Evan cannot reveal his covetousness for the crown, otherwise the Order of the Phoenix will definitely protect the crown even more, and use this as a threat to let Evan release him, and they will even find out who Evan needs the crown Reason, in order to hurt Evan.

Evan wouldn't be so careless, he didn't need to go to war so much for a crown...

Snape suddenly took a breath: Could it be that Evan's purpose this time is to wipe out the Order of the Phoenix?It shouldn't be, this is too risky, and the suspicious and powerful Dumbledore alone is not easy to deal with.

But the more he denies it, the more Snape's mind ponders the possibility of the plan's success: Evan has already inserted the Death Eaters, not to mention that he has been hiding in Hogwarts for so many years and can get Dumbledore And the existence of Lily's trust, just talking about the newcomers to Hogwarts this year, there are already Karkaroff who seems to have left the Death Eaters team, and Gellert, an ally who has always been extremely obsessed with Dumbledore , even among the students Karkaroff brought may have undercover Death Eaters, and, if Gellert is really credible, he alone is enough to contain Dumbledore...

At the final stage of the Triwizard Tournament, Hogwarts will rarely allow people from other schools to enter. As one of the school trustees, Lucius will definitely be there, and there may be Death Eaters among the visiting Ministry of Magic officials. power.From this point of view, the core strength of the Death Eaters can be easily assembled.

After arranging the arrangements bit by bit, Snape couldn't help admiring Evan, he had gathered so much power quietly, and the reason was so legitimate that not many people would doubt it, let alone notice the conspiracy behind these tiny details up.

It seemed that the fire in the fireplace had finally warmed Snape, and he smiled slightly relieved.Now that Evan's plan has been speculated, he can also act.Even if Evan doesn't trust him, he will try his best to help Evan, and even he will play an unparalleled role in Evan's plan. Only in this way can he gain a firm foothold step by step and slowly penetrate into Evan's heart.

After confirming the target, Snape was thinking about how to induce Lily. The news that Harry became a warrior will spread soon, and Lily will definitely come to him tomorrow at the latest...

Lily... Snape hesitated for a while, but he finally hardened his mind. He couldn't make any more mistakes. He wanted to get everything he wanted for Evan...

The freshness of the Durmstrang and Beauxbatons students had just begun, especially when the students from the two schools began to attend classes with the Hogwarts students. The students always looked at them unconsciously and tried to strike up a conversation with them.This makes professors have to spend more energy to maintain order in the classroom and warn students to listen carefully.

And Snape obviously didn't need to bother to maintain order like other professors. Even in the classroom where Krum was present, no one dared to challenge the authority of the gloomy potions professor.

"The antidote!" said Snape, looking around the class, his icy black eyes gleaming uncomfortably, "you should prepare your own formula by now. I ask you to boil it carefully, before class ends, Let's just choose one person to try..." His malicious eyes stayed on Harry, and he was satisfied to see that the other party finally stopped being attached to Ian, and obediently brewed the potion with a sad face.

There was no sound during the whole class, except for the occasional sound of bubbling from the boiling potion.

Snape was patrolling the cellar, his eyes still unconsciously lingering around Evan, but he was completely ignored by the other party as always.Snape turned his head, suppressed his emotions, and raised his eyebrows to criticize Harry's potions. He was extremely strict with Harry. After all, warriors are always stronger than others, aren't they?

Lily was more anxious than Snape expected, and Snape met her in the cellar after the first class was over.

"You're back!" Lily smiled at Snape, as if Harry's affairs hadn't affected her in any way, and if her dark circles weren't so obvious, it might have been very convincing.

"En." Snape nodded, casually summoned two cups of black tea, and signaled Lily to sit down on the sofa.

"I asked Dumbledore, and he didn't detect any abnormalities in the Goblet of Fire, which is very unusual." Lily drank her red tea and said slowly, no longer crying silently when Harry was mentioned as before , begging Snape for help.

Snape noticed this keenly, and suddenly thought: Maybe this is the real Lily?When you have no power, you can put down your body and beg others. When you stand on a high place, you regain your elegance and calmness, and analyze the pros and cons rationally.Always know exactly what to do under what circumstances, and give full play to your own charm.

Suppressing the confusion in his heart, Snape nodded and said: "I also checked it, and I really didn't find anything."

Lily held the black tea in a daze, and it took a long time before she said: "The only one who will harm Harry is the Dark Lord. The key is how he does it."

Lily put down her teacup and looked straight at Snape: "Hogwarts must have infiltrated the Dark Lord's forces, maybe Karkaroff, maybe Krum, maybe other people we don't know... "

Snape denied: "Karkaroff lives at night on a big ship moored in the Black Lake, and it is not convenient for him to enter the castle."

"What about Krum? He is a professor who only entered the castle this year, and Dumbledore didn't tell me his identity and background, which is too suspicious..." Lily's worried eyes showed distrust of Dumbledore.

"I don't know his details either." Snape brought Lily's suspicion to Gellert without hesitation: "He is very powerful, and he seems to have seen through all my temptations."

While Lily was thinking deeply, Snape said temptingly: "Lily, have you ever wondered why the Dark Lord still targets Harry?"

Lily didn't realize what Snape meant for a while, but after a while her eyes gradually cleared up: "Yes, obviously I have been preaching that I am the one who defeated the Dark Lord, divert his attention, he can't always Staring at Harry. Could it be that Harry has something that he has to get?"

"I speculate that even though the Dark Lord has acted more calmly recently, he is still irritable and obsessed. Maybe he still persists in thinking that Harry is his old enemy, and hopes to eliminate the threat and save his reputation by killing Harry." Snape With a low voice, he embedded his thoughts into Lily's heart word by word.

Lily obviously believed it, and she looked at Snape blankly: "Is it that all my previous efforts were useless? Could it be that Harry will never be able to get rid of the danger from the Dark Lord?"

Snape lowered his voice and said, "You know that prophecy, maybe the fate of the two of them has already been doomed."

Snape thought in a daze: Even if fate is destined, Evan's fate can only be entangled with his forever, and no one can get involved...

The author has something to say: So, the professor is still very powerful, he guessed Evan's plan in an instant, and also helped to induce Lily by the way~~
