Chapter 68: Snape's intuition
Chapter 68 Snape’s Intuition
Before the Quidditch match started in the afternoon, Snape found Mrs. Hoch and asked to postpone the game on the pretext that the physical and mental health of the players in his academy had been affected.
Mrs. Hodge seemed to know what happened at noon. She agreed without much thought and prepared to let Ravenclaw replace Slytherin.
"Mrs. Hodge, I don't think Gryffindor is fit to play today either."
Snape glanced in the direction of the Gryffindor team and said, "I have something I need to ask the two Weasleys."
“Can’t you wait until the game is over?” Mrs. Hodge frowned.
Subsequently, if both teams are replaced, the event will be completely disrupted and rescheduling will be very troublesome.
Snape drawled: "It's an emergency, Mrs. Hoch."
“That’s...okay.” Although he was reluctant, Snape was the school’s official professor and dean after all, so he had the right to intervene in the Quidditch match.
Mrs. Hodge could only agree.
However, she still warned: "Dean Snape, I hope this won't happen again. It's really troublesome to reschedule the game."
"Believe me, I don't want this to happen either, but I just don't know what they think..."
Snape turned around and came to Gryffindor, taking Fred and George away without any explanation.
Charlie wanted to step forward to stop him, but he was deducted ten points as soon as he opened his mouth.
"Ten points from Gryffindor for contradicting Professor Weasley." Snape said coldly: "If you don't get out of the way, I will deduct twenty points from you next time."
Charlie's face turned red with anger. He clenched his fists tightly and veins popped out on his arms. Then he took a deep breath, raised his legs and... moved to the side.
“Professor Snape walks slowly.”
Snape's hand holding the wand relaxed slightly, snorted coldly, and left the Quidditch pitch with Fred and George.
But as soon as he left, Charlie cursed and rushed to Professor McGonagall's office.
Slytherin doesn't have martial ethics, and he didn't say anything about setting them up, but he still called them. It's so shameless.
Isn’t it just the thigh? No one has the same.
Their Gryffindor's biggest asset is still the vice-headmaster... In terms of official position, he is bigger than Snape.
On the other side, after returning to the castle, Snape took Fred and George all the way to the Potions Office.
However, instead of being nervous, the twins were looking at the furnishings in the office with great interest.
is very average.
Not to mention it's narrow, the tables and chairs are also very old, and the floor creaks when you step on it.
If they ignored the potion ingredients, they might even think they had entered a second-hand furniture store.
Compared to Professor McGonagall's, it's far behind.
“Professor Snape, what do you want from us?” Fred asked first.
Snape said slowly, "What happened to the package you received this morning?"
“We don’t know either, Professor.” George said calmly, and took out a piece of paper from his pocket and placed it on the table beside him.
“There was no signature on it, so we thought the owl sent it to us by mistake.”
"Yes." Fred nodded and said, "We have been looking for the owner of the package for a long time but could not find it. Just when we were about to hand it over to Professor McGonagall, the package disappeared."
George continued: "Professor, do you know who stole...that package?"
I don’t know whether it was intentional or not, but George pronounced the word “steal” very hard and paused.
But Snape seemed not to have heard and continued to ask: "So, you didn't buy that package?
Don't try to fool me, I know it's from Zuko, I'll ask in Hogsmeade later. "
"Of course, this is your freedom, Professor." Fred's expression did not change at all. "But if you know who stole the package, please tell us. After all, the thing was lost in our hands, and we won't be able to account for it if the owner finds it."
Snape's eyes twitched and he pretended not to hear again.
"Weasley, you..."
“Bang bang bang”
At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door.
Professor McGonagall walked in from outside.
"Severus, I heard that you took Fred and George away." Professor McGonagall pursed her lips and asked with a serious expression: "Did they make any mistakes?"
"We don't, Professor McGonagall." Fred quickly complained.
George followed up and said: "Professor Snape came to us to ask about the package."
Professor McGonagall thought for a moment and said, "Is it the package you told me about before, the package without a signature?"
"Yes, that's the one," said Fred. "But it's lost. We suspect someone may have stolen it."
"Stealing things? In Hogwarts?" Professor McGonagall pursed her lips even tighter, "If you let me know who it is, I will deduct one hundred, no, two hundred points from him."
"Ahem..." At this time, Snape suddenly coughed twice and said: "Actually, it belongs to one of our Slytherin students. He took it after seeing it before."
Professor McGonagall was slightly startled, "From your college?"
"Yes, from our college." Snape's face turned a little blue, and he gritted his teeth and said, "I called Weasley this time, just to confirm the situation with them."
“That’s it…”
Professor McGonagall's expression softened a lot, and she glanced at Snape with some displeasure. "It's okay to talk about this on the court, why do we have to interrupt the game."
Snape said nothing, but in his heart he cursed Rozier as a fool.
After that, Professor McGonagall went back, and she took Fred and George with her before leaving.
Snape didn't stop him either.
Actually, he had never doubted the two Weasleys from the beginning.
The styles are too different.
This time I called them over, just wanting to talk about it, and by the way, it was deducted from thirty or fifty.
In the end, he did not expect Professor McGonagall to arrive so quickly, and the two people seemed to have been prepared. They directly characterized the matter as "stealing things" in front of Professor McGonagall.
He couldn't even find anything wrong with it.
Because this is a fact. If the Slytherin people had not stolen the package, what happened next would not have happened.
"Rozier, this idiot, is simply a close relative of the troll!" Snape cursed in his mind again.
But after what happened just now, he was even more certain that this incident had nothing to do with Weasley, or at least they were not the mastermind.
Weasley's brain is not that good yet.
Snape pondered for a moment, and for some reason, an honest, loyal (crossed out), cunning and hypocritical face suddenly flashed in his mind.
“Kael Chopper…” Snape muttered.
Although no matter how you look at it, Kyle has nothing to do with this incident, and he can't even be close to it, but Snape's intuition told him that Kyle was definitely not innocent.
That's right, it's just intuition, and it has nothing to do with him leading Kangna astray.
