  Chapter 1234 Being Targeted

After much deliberation, Snape still decided to tell Dumbledore the news that Narcissa planned to sneak into Hogwarts to steal Felix Felicia. Since the old man was willing to give Draco a hand, he would definitely be able to handle it. Ok this thing. He also didn't want Narcissa's actions to cause trouble to Dumbledore's plan.

  Although Snape himself has never used Felicia, as a pharmacist, he is very aware of the magic of this potion. Once Draco uses Felicia, maybe he can repair the damaged Vanishing Cabinet in advance.

  After the disappearing cabinet is completely repaired, the plan to invade Hogwarts will be advanced and become uncontrollable, which may disrupt Dumbledore's original plan, which is not good news.

   "Your message was timely, Severus."

  After learning from Snape that Bella had obtained Felicia and that Narcissa planned to invade Hogwarts, Dumbledore's reaction was calmer than Snape expected, as if it was just a trivial matter.

   "Narcissa didn't tell me the specific time, and..." Snape paused, looking up at Dumbledore, "How are you going to deal with this matter?"

   "There are only a few ways to sneak into Hogwarts quietly. With Aurors on patrol, the probability of her success is not high."

  Dumbledore seemed to be thinking about other things. After a moment of silence, the old man suddenly murmured, "This is actually a good opportunity."

   "What a great opportunity?"

  A moment of astonishment appeared on Snape's face, suspecting that Dumbledore was talking nonsense.

   "It would be even better if you could figure out the time when Narcissa invaded Hogwarts. I hope all the changes are under control."

  Dumbledore remembered Albert's reminder, knowing that his previous series of arrangements might not be able to keep up with the changes in the situation, and he needed to revise his original plan.

   "I hope everything goes as you want."

  Snape took a deep look at Dumbledore and didn't say anything more. He knew very well that the old man in front of him didn't intend to tell him too much, and even if he continued to ask, it was obviously a waste of effort.

   "I'll do my best. If you have any arrangements, you'd better tell me in advance." Snape took a deep look at Dumbledore, turned and left.

  After Snape left the headmaster's office, Dumbledore intertwined his fingers on the table and began to think about what to do after this happened. He still hoped that Harry could get that part of the memory from his old friend.

   "I'm running out of time!"

  Dumbledore took out the double-sided mirror from the desk drawer and tried to get in touch with Albert. Some things must be discussed with the other party in advance to avoid a mess at that time.

"What's up?"

It took a while, and finally there was a reaction in the double-sided mirror. Albert's face appeared on the other side of the mirror. He seemed very dissatisfied with the old man disturbing him at this time, but he also knew that Dumbledore must have something to look for him, so he didn't because Complain about being disturbed.

   "As you expected, our plan may be advanced." Dumbledore said calmly.

  After about thirty seconds of silence, he asked directly, "How many Felicias did they get?"

   "One bottle, about twelve hours' worth." Dumbledore said.

   "Have they returned to England to find Snape?" Albert seemed to be very clear about this matter.

  In fact, he was the one who made Bud secretly release the news to force Bella and Narcissa back to England.

The bounty for them was also secretly released by Bard. Anyway, there is no need to worry about someone killing the two to take the high bounty. By the way, Narcissa Malfoy can also taste the feeling of being wanted. .

   "It seems you know about it."

   "If you want to chat with someone, we can take the time to have afternoon tea together." Albert asked Dumbledore to focus.

   "The development of the matter has indeed exceeded my expectations. If there are some things that I don't have time to do, I'm afraid I can only ask you."

   If the original plan is followed, Dumbledore still has a few months to deal with the funeral affairs, but now it seems that the time is very tight.

   Without Albert, Dumbledore would never allow Narcissa to break into Hogwarts, let alone allow the situation to get out of control.

  Although he will try to stop the other party, it is obviously necessary to make two-handed preparations, especially after Albert made an appointment in advance.

"If I were you, I would think about my last words carefully. I know you have arranged everything, but this incident may disrupt some of your plans." Albert also felt that his words It is redundant, he added: "I will help you with divination, but don't expect to get too accurate information."

   "Maybe, we can sit down for afternoon tea and talk about these things slowly."

  Dumbledore was quite satisfied with this. After closing the double-sided mirror to communicate with Albert, he began to organize his thoughts. Some things really need to be advanced. This is not good news, but it is also impossible.

On the other side, Albert, who closed the double-sided mirror, was sitting in the study thinking about this matter. He was still a little confused by a question: Will Bella really give the Felician to Draco Malfoy? ?

  Not likely!

   That crazy woman would definitely prefer to use Felix Felicia in the action of besieging and killing Dumbledore. That thing can make multiple Death Eaters perform supernormally and increase the success rate of killing Dumbledore.

  However, without Felicia, Malfoy obviously couldn't have repaired the Vanishing Cabinet in advance.

  That is to say, Malfoy in the prophecy repaired the Vanishing Cabinet in advance with the help of Felicia.

   If Malfoy got Felicia, it could only come from his mother, Narcissa. The odds of him stealing Felicia from Slughorn were really slim.

  Bella and Narcissa got two bottles of Felicia?

  It is possible, but the probability is not high.

  The white mist above the crystal ball swirled rapidly, and a clear picture appeared in front of Albert: a young girl in school uniform was pointing her wand at Professor Slughorn.

   Is this... Narcissa Malfoy?

  Is that woman planning to sneak into the school secretly and steal the Felicia stored by Slughorn?

   Albert immediately figured out what was going on.

  The question now is: does Dumbledore know about this?

  If he knew and acquiesced to this happening, then why?

  What does Professor Slughorn have on his mind?

   Albert's fingers tapped lightly on the parchment: "So it's because of the memory that Professor Slughorn didn't want to mention?"

   "Is it because of me?" Albert murmured, "What a pit, this mistake should be corrected."

  After he finds out why the plan is ahead of schedule, he doesn't mind rectifying the mistake at all.

Leave more time for Dumbledore to prepare, and the less trouble will fall on him, and once Slughorn's stockpile of Felicia is looted, God knows how much the Death Eaters who get Felicia will do. destroy.

  Since things are already unavoidable, why can't the whole situation be made controllable?

   Narcissa intends to **** Slughorn's Blessed Elixir, so why can't she **** Narcissa's Blessed Elixir?

  Albert waved his wand and unfolded the large map of Hogwarts on the desk. Looking at the densely packed student names on the map, he took out his wand and tapped it lightly, preparing to highlight Malfoy's name.

  …

   At the same time, Draco Malfoy, who was far away at Hogwarts, seemed to feel something, and couldn't help shivering.

"what happened."

   He grumbled and looked at the damaged apple in the broken cabinet, picked it up and looked at it carefully, then angrily threw it towards the garbage mountain next to it.

   Failed again.

   Malfoy scratched his hair frantically. Since he came into contact with this broken cabinet, similar things had happened countless times. Failure after failure was making him lose his patience.

what to do?

  Ask Snape for help?

   No, if asking Snape for help was useful, this broken cabinet should have been repaired by now.

  Malfoy took out the double-sided mirror from his pocket, but he didn't use it after all. Instead, he put the mirror back into his pocket, took out the notes on repairing the disappearing cabinet and continued to read, trying to find a way to repair the disappearing cabinet.

At this moment, mother Narcissa's calling voice suddenly came from the double-sided mirror, which startled Draco who was looking through the notes carefully. Cracked into several pieces.

   "Mom, what do you want from me?" Draco couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that the cracked double-sided mirror was still working.

   "I remember you have studied potions." Narcissa's question confused Draco.

   "What's wrong?" Malfoy asked back.

   "I need you to help us get some hair from other students who are taking potions with you, preferably girls," Narcissa said.

   "What do you want your hair for?"

  Draco was even more confused, completely confused about what his mother was doing with his hair.

"Your Aunt Bella and I got some Felix Felicia in Europe, but it wasn't enough. Your Aunt Bella is going to use it to sneak into Hogwarts and get more from Slughorn. Felix."

   Narcissa didn't say she was the one who wanted to break into Hogwarts, but Bella, because she knew very well that Draco would never help him if he said he was going to sneak into Hogwarts.

In fact, Draco was indeed taken aback by the news, and after he reacted, he quickly said: "No, absolutely not, even if Aunt Bella can really get Felicia from Slughorn, Once this matter is exposed, our next plan will be completely over."

   This is also the main reason why Malfoy never hit Slughorn's Blessing Elixirs, not because he didn't want to, but because he couldn't afford to fail.

   "Don't worry, Bella knows the importance and will not cause trouble to your plan." Narcissa softly comforted her, but the effect was not very good, Draco knew too well what kind of person his Aunt Bella was.

   "We need more Felicia, but certainly not stupid enough to mess things up."

Seeing that Draco didn't let go, Narcissa said again, "Severus also knows about this, we have already persuaded him to help us hold Slughorn, so you don't have to worry, Bella just needs to get Felicia will leave Hogwarts immediately, and she will take a small amount of Felicia before she acts to ensure that the whole plan goes smoothly."

   Narcissa wasn't lying a bit, Snape did promise to make it easier for them.

   As for the hair problem, it is obviously more appropriate to leave it to Draco.

  Because she needs someone to help create opportunities to avoid the embarrassment of the two meeting by chance.

   Malfoy's eyes widened in surprise, not knowing what to do.

  That night, he went to find Snape overnight, intending to talk to him about it.

  Clearly knowing that Snape is likely to use him, even Malfoy doesn't know why he still trusts Snape, maybe it's because they are both on the same boat now, maybe he just wants to survive with his family.

  Once the plan to assassinate Dumbledore fails, everyone will die, including Snape himself.

  So, Malfoy wanted Snape to succeed.

"How did you come?"

  Snape opened the door, saw Malfoy standing outside, frowned slightly, but still moved aside to let Malfoy enter the room.

   "Mum said Aunt Bella was going to sneak into Hogwarts and steal Felicia from Slughorn," Malfoy said straight to the point.

   In this matter, he can hardly help, so it is necessary to find out Snape's attitude towards this matter.

   "I know about it," Snape said calmly.

"Why…"

   "Why not stop them?"

   "Yes, I don't think we should take the risk." Malfoy said, frowning.

   "I think you may have made a mistake." Snape looked at Draco and asked rhetorically, "What makes you think I can stop them?"

  Malfoy suddenly fell silent.

   "What if she fails?"

   "If she messes up while using Felicia, I'll report her to Dumbledore," Snape said dryly.

   "Use Aunt Bella to win Dumbledore's trust?" Malfoy opened his mouth slightly, not knowing what to say.

   "Yes." Snape admitted bluntly.

   "However, as far as I know, it was not Bella who wanted to come to Hogwarts to steal the Felix Felicia, but your mother Narcissa."

  Snape's words made Malfoy's eyes widen.

   "You mean..." Malfoy couldn't believe his ears.

   "I think she is willing to take this risk because of you." Snape said calmly, "If it was Bella, I would definitely not agree to help."

   "But, how come, you should stop her." Malfoy said loudly.

   "Narcissa is an adult with her own judgment, do you really think you can persuade her to give up?" Snape sneered, "Why don't you look at yourself?"

"I?"

   Malfoy was silent, he understood what Snape meant.

"Narcisha's plan has a high success rate." Snape said indifferently, "and, even if we are unwilling to help her, she will still do it, but it will be more troublesome. As for the failure of the plan, I think She should be aware of the consequences and be mentally prepared."
