Chapter 545 Something is wrong
"You used a love potion on Lockhart, didn't you, Miss Greengrass." Snape glared at the students of his own college with a murderous look on his face.
There is no doubt that the idiot Lockhart turned into what he is now, it is a reaction to being drugged.
If there weren't many students around, Snape would have read a curse to Lockhart.
"I really...really didn't send any love potion to Professor Lockhart." Queenie Greengrass felt panicked when Snape glared at him with a sinister look on his face, and there was already a hint of crying in his trembling voice.
"Alright Severus, let's help Lockhart get rid of the influence of the love potion first," Professor McGonagall reminded.
Albert noticed that the corners of Professor McGonagall's mouth turned up slightly. Apparently Lockhart's experience put the transfiguration professor in a good mood.
As expected, none of the professors in the school liked Lockhart very much. Albert was curious about how many bad things Lockhart did when he was a student at Hogwarts to make the professors in the school hate him collectively.
The crowd of onlookers was quickly dispersed by Snape, and Lockhart, who was controlled by a full body binding spell, was transferred to the school hospital by Professor McGonagall.
Madam Pomfrey quickly prepared an antidote to the love potion to help the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor get rid of its influence.
Lockhart drank the antidote and recovered, the expression on his handsome face was particularly wonderful. He simply couldn't imagine that he would do such a shameful thing as confessing his love to a student in front of everyone.
"He's fine. If you want to talk about anything else, don't stay here." Madam Pomfrey was about to drive them away.
"My office is nearby," Professor McGonagall suggested.
In the corridor outside the school hospital, a group of onlookers were whispering quietly, trying to find out more interesting news. As a result, they saw Snape walking out of the school hospital with a murderous look on his face. They were all frightened. Running around.
“Tell me, what is going on?” Snape asked with a cold face after Professor McGonagall closed the door.
"Miss Greengrass, if you like me, you can tell me directly. There is no need to use such a method." Lockhart showed a self-conscious smile towards Queenie Greengrass, "However, our There is a big age gap and it’s not suitable for a relationship.”
"I really don't..." Queenie Greengrass was almost crying.
"Then Professor Lockhart has been poisoned, how are you going to explain this?" Snape said in a very unkind tone and glared at Lockhart, telling him to shut up.
If it were Lockhart who was still under the influence of the love potion just now, he would probably have stepped forward and punched Snape again.
Professor McGonagall didn't say much. Queenie Greengrass was a student of Slytherin. It was up to Snape to decide how to deal with her.
Finally, under the pressure of Snape's unkind gaze, Queenie Greengrass finally told the story that she had sent a chocolate frog mixed with love potion to Albert Anderson.
"At that time, he had just won the International Wizarding Chess Championship, so I..." Queenie Greengrass almost cried as he said this, but Snape remained unmoved. As a telegrapher, Snape naturally It's obvious that Queenie Greengrass isn't entirely telling the truth.
However, this matter was really full of twists and turns, causing all three of them to fall into a brief silence.
…
“You mean chocolate?”
Facing Snape’s ‘friendly’ gaze, Albert’s expression remained calm, “I don’t remember if Queenie Greengrass was among the people who sent me snacks.”
“Don’t remember?” Snape said softly.
"During the summer vacation, I did receive snacks and letters from many people." Albert said with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth: "Because I have had the experience of being maliciously sent letters, so I always treat strangers I’m usually very wary of things that come in the mail.”
"Well, I asked my roommate to help unpack that pile of packages. There were indeed a lot of snacks inside, and I gave them to other people." Albert faced Snape's "friendly" gaze without any concern. He said happily: "Of course, I also gave Professor Lockhart some chocolates last time. I am a fan of Professor Lockhart's books. The stories in the book are very good."
After speaking, Albert nodded towards Lockhart and said, "I'm sorry, I really didn't think that something like that would happen."
"It's okay, it's not your fault." Lockhart said easily, especially after Albert said he was a fan of his books, his expression became even more cheerful.
Is this really an accident?
Snape always felt that something was not quite right there.
Instinct told him that this matter might be related to Albert, but there was no evidence to prove it.
"Oh, by the way, Miss Queenie Greengrass." Albert turned around and looked at the Slytherin girl, and said seriously: "I already have a girlfriend, don't do such things in the future. Yeah, that would really bother me."
"Ten points from Slytherin and confinement." Snape said coldly: "I will tell your family about this. Now go back, Miss Greengrass."
“I think you are a little too strict,” Lockhart said to Snape.
“Okay, Mr. Anderson, you should go back first.”
Albert nodded and turned around and left.
There were not many flaws in this matter. He slightly modified Lockhart's memory to make him remember that Albert gave him some chocolates yesterday.
In fact, Lockhart did have some chocolate left on his desk.
When Albert came out of Professor McGonagall's office, he was immediately surrounded by a large group of students. They kept asking questions, and Albert briefly talked about the love potion.
“So, Queenie Greengrass actually wants to give you a love potion.” Angelina felt incredible. She had also eaten snacks sent by Albert.
"Slytherin House likes to use such despicable means to achieve their goals." Aria was quite annoyed by this. The flying broomstick last time and the love potion this time made her dissatisfied with Slytherin House. Very poor senses.
"No, no, Queenie Greengrass doesn't really like Albert at all. She used this despicable method just to break up the relationship between Albert and Isobel, just to watch others laugh," Shanna's tone was very unfriendly, "That guy is simply a [bitch]."
There are as many girls who like Albert as there are girls who hate Queenie Greengrass. Who made her use such despicable methods?
The next day, the Slytherin girl received a howling letter from home. After the roar ended, there was a burst of joyful laughter in the auditorium.
