Watching Harry's leaving back, Dumbledore took his eyes back and looked sideways at the grandfather clock by the wall. He walked to the fireplace, grabbed a handful of floo powder from the box and sprinkled it into the burning fire. After the flames rose, he said, "Severus, I have something to tell you."
After a while, Snape emerged from the rising green flames.
"What's up?"
Snape had actually guessed what Dumbledore was looking for himself.
"Miss Bell, you did a good job." Dumbledore gave Snape a deep look and said straight to the point: "But I don't want something like this to happen again. I'm lucky this time, but we can't expect every Once so lucky, I hope you can take control of the situation and provide Mr. Malfoy with help and guidance to stop him from trying this dangerous thing."
"I will. Draco's kid won't give up easily until he has experienced failure. This time I will completely persuade him to follow my actions." Snape was also quite helpless.
To be honest, Katie Bell didn't die, which also relieved him, otherwise he didn't know what would have happened in the end.
If Katie Bell really died in the assassination plan, he didn't think Dumbledore would easily forgive Malfoy and forgive a murderer.
He knew Dumbledore.
"Very well, I hope everything goes according to plan, you know this is important to everyone," Dumbledore whispered, "One more thing, I have to remind you, if something like this happens again , the Ministry of Magic will definitely intervene, and all suspicious students may need to be screened for Veritaserum, I think you are well aware of Scrimgeour's behavior."
"You think the Ministry of Magic will step in." Snape was surprised.
"The Malfoys have offended a lot of people," Dumbledore reminded meaningfully.
"I know what to do." Snape grabbed a handful of floo powder and sprinkled it into the fireplace, before disappearing into the rising green flames.
"Hopefully it doesn't happen," Dumbledore murmured, knowing that after Harry began to doubt Malfoy, it wasn't difficult to verify something. Whether it was Albert's divination or the use of Veritaserum, it was impossible for Draco Malfoy to hide his crimes.
In particular, Lucius Malfoy also tried to kill Albert at his wedding. Such hatred cannot be easily resolved.
Perhaps, Albert could not implicate Lucius's family after completing his revenge, but after the last bounty incident, Dumbledore would not be naive enough to think that Albert had given up, he believed that Albert would never Would mind destroying the Malfoys and kicking them into **** with one kick.
Albert can do this kind of thing, and it's never easy to forgive others.
Just look at the Lestrange family. The Lestrange brothers were killed by accident not long ago.
As for Bellatrix, the end is not expected to be much better.
Snape returned to the office with a heavy heart, and from what Dumbledore said, he realized one thing.historical
If Draco continued to jump around, it was very likely that even Dumbledore wouldn't be able to keep him.
Yes, Dumbledore graciously forgave those who wanted to kill him, but others did not. From the sentence "Malfoys offended a lot of people", he had already guessed who it might be.
Albert Anderson.
The Malfoys have offended the most ruthless people in recent years.
Thinking of the Lestrange brothers who were killed by the Aurors, and Bellatrix's recent embarrassment, it was hard for Snape to imagine what would happen if Draco was targeted.
He knew he had to stop Draco from continuing to die.
Snape asked a Slytherin ghost to find Draco Malfoy and ask him to come to the office immediately.
The face of Draco Malfoy, who had just been notified by the ghost, suddenly fell, and he went to Snape's office with a gloomy face.
Seeing that Dean Slytherin's office was in front of him, Malfoy clenched his fists and knocked on the door stiffly.
"Come in and sit." Snape motioned for Malfoy to sit on the armchair next to his desk after he entered the room.
"What's your business with me, Professor?" Malfoy asked knowingly.
"You failed, and you almost killed Katie Bell." Snape reminded blankly: "You should be glad Katie Bell didn't die, otherwise you will be in bad luck."
"I didn't do it. I didn't go to Hogsmeade at the time. Professor McGonagall helped me testify." Malfoy twitched his lips and defended softly.
He knew that he had to leave himself alone, and staying at Hogwarts, under the watchful eyes of a certain professor, was undoubtedly the best way.
"Don't take other people for fools." Snape looked at Malfoy coldly. "You really think Dumbledore doesn't know about it. He's already suspicious of you and asked me to watch you."
"Isn't that nice?" Malfoy gave a quirky expression. "You can keep him in the dark."
