In the middle of the night, on the silent street, a figure in a black cloak stopped in front of an old house, raised his hand and knocked on the wooden door in front of him.
"Who?"
After about thirty seconds, there was a sound behind the door, followed by a nervous voice.
"it's me!"
The figure in the cloak spoke up.
"Severus?"
The door of the room was opened a crack, and a woman looked out through the crack of the door, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief after confirming who was coming.
"I have something important to tell you and Draco," Snape said to the woman in the door.
"Come in first."
Narcissa stepped back and let Snape in.
A similar scene happened not long ago, but it was the complete opposite.
"Where's Draco?" Snape asked, looking around.
"Draco is resting in the room." Narcissa whispered: "The burning of the manor has dealt him a big blow. Are you looking for him?"
"This has something to do with Draco too. It's best to let him listen to it." Snape asked Narcissa to wake people up.
He probably heard voices coming from the hall, the door beside it was suddenly opened, and a pale-faced Draco Malfoy walked out from inside. He was slightly taken aback when he saw Snape. See each other here.
"Have Bellatrix mentioned it to you?" Snape asked suddenly.
"What did you mention?"
"Who may have attacked Malfoy Manor?" Snape turned his eyes to the confused Narcissa, and raised his eyebrows slightly, "It seems that she hasn't had time to tell you the news."
"Although there is no evidence, there is a high probability that Albert Anderson set the fire." Snape said calmly.
"That **** mudblood," Draco said through gritted teeth.
"Calm down, you're losing your mind." Snape looked at the ferocious Draco, and reminded blankly, "Anger won't solve the problem, it will only make the situation worse, and you don't have time to be angry. , don't forget the mission the Dark Lord gave you."
"I know..." Draco Malfoy forced himself to calm down, his eyes fixed on Snape, "It's definitely not because of this that you're here so late."
"Yes, I hope you can withdraw the reward for Albert Anderson." Snape turned his head to Narcissa. "That's a pretty stupid thing to do."
"It's impossible!" Draco blurted out directly.
"Nothing is impossible," Snape said quietly.
To be honest, Snape is not good at persuading others, but Dumbledore hopes that he can persuade the Malfoy family to give up the reward for Albert, and let him provide help and guidance to Draco Malfoy to avoid the other party's chaos Come.
So here he comes.
"Why?" Malfoy asked suddenly. "Why did you…"
"Now you don't even know who the enemy is," Snape interrupted unceremoniously. "I promised your mother would help you, but..."
Narcissa met her son's gaze and explained in a low voice, "Severus is more experienced in this than you..."
"Enough Mom, this is my job, he gave it to me, I can do it myself..." Malfoy was interrupted before he could finish his words.
"Draco, it's not that I don't want to believe you," Narcissa said sadly, "but we can't afford to fail again."
Draco Malfoy was silent.
"Why are you here?" A sudden voice broke the silence of the room.
Bella stood outside the door, staring warily at Snape.
"something wrong?"
Snape glanced at Bella, didn't pay attention to what the other party said, turned to Draco and said, "Remember, the reward for Albert Anderson must be stopped."
"why?"
"That fire was just a warning," Snape said, glancing at Bella with a sneer, "otherwise do you really think you can escape from the devil's flame?"
"Warning?" Narcissa looked at Snape uneasily.
"Yes, I told Dumbledore that when you were alive, he said that," Snape recalled. "Dumbledore thought Anderson set the fire, so he hoped I could convince you to give up The guy's bounty is wanted."
"So, you are here to carry out Dumbledore's orders?"
"Does this matter?" Snape asked rhetorically. "You never seem to get the point."
"Let Severus go on." Narcissa almost prayed to stop Bella, who was about to say something, "I believe there must be some important reason for Severus to be here."
"Dumbledore didn't want Albert Anderson to be corrupted by murder," Snape said with a sarcastic tone.
"What does this have to do with a bounty..." Draco was a little confused by Snape.
"I have never been able to understand why you ignored the danger of that guy. Could it be that the so-called mudblood's name affects your normal judgment?"
"It's ridiculous." Bella curled her lips in disdain, "I can kill him soon and get the Dark Lord's reward."
Snape glanced at Bellatrix contemptuously out of the corner of his eye. He felt that if he confronted Anderson with the other's barren brain, he would be killed by the other party sooner or later.
"A long time ago, I reminded Lucius not to provoke that Anderson before he was sure." Snape sneered, "As a result, Lucius failed, and many people lost their lives for it. "
"How dare you..." Draco almost crooked his nose.
"You never noticed that many of the people arrested by the Ministry of Magic were executed," Snape reminded blankly.
"You mean..." Narcissa seemed to realize something.
"It's true that Albert Anderson didn't kill himself, but he used the Ministry of Magic to kill the guys who tried to attack his wedding," Snape said deadpan. put to death."
"Once he no longer has concerns, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com will not even have a chance." Snape was also very afraid, because the fire only burned down the Malfoy Manor, but did not spread around. is the best evidence.
"Remember, it's Bellatrix's job to kill Albert Anderson, and you'd better stay out of it," Snape warned indifferently.
"You think I'm going to fail." Bella seemed to realize something, pointing her wand at Snape angrily.
"The probability is not high." Snape sneered. "That guy is a master of prophecy. He can predict the future. His so-called traps will be detected by him in advance, and you don't even know about it."
"Once the plan fails, that guy will definitely kill a group of people, and the Malfoy family who offered a bounty will definitely be on the list, and no one will tolerate repeated provocations."
"So, focus on your own mission and don't get involved in this." Snape cut off what Malfoy was about to say indifferently, "You have to remember that I am your helper and back-hand, if you miss, I will Let me take over this job, don't be ridiculous to think that I want to take your credit, this is my job originally!"
"Remember, the Dark Lord will forgive Lucius as long as Dumbledore is dead."
