Su Shuang's world is collapsing [Comprehensive]

Dumbledore's face contorted in the flames, and Willow wasn't sure if he was trying to give her a smile.He said quickly, "Find Severus for me, and tell him to wait for me in the headmaster's office. I'm going out...too bad I couldn't find the person I was looking for when I was rushing out. "

His tone was calm, as if he was narrating the facts, but there seemed to be some ominous premonition in Liu Quan's heart.She reacted suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in her heart.

"All right," she heard herself reply calmly, "but, if I may take the liberty—Professor, where are you going?"

Dumbledore was silent for a moment.

"Oh! I'm going into the night to chase that frivolous and seductive temptress—adventure..." he replied in a tone that sounded like reciting a sonnet.

Liu Quan:! ! !

She frowned almost immediately, vaguely aware of something——

This poem... this poem! !

She suddenly felt a cold sweat trickling out of her back.

What exactly is Dumbledore trying to do? !Where does he want to go? !

She suddenly understood that such temptations or deaf-mute hypocrisy would not work.

It was not Dumbledore's intention to tell her the truth about his whereabouts.

"Okay." Liuquan changed his strategy and said in a softer tone, "I'll find Severus and make sure he's in the principal's office when you come back. But—tonight What's your password?"

Dumbledore froze for a moment.He seemed to be thinking about something before, so that he didn't fully devote his mind to the conversation with Liu Quan. "Password?...Oh, sorry, I forgot, the password for tonight is—"

"Why don't you let me guess?" Liu Quan interrupted him rudely before he finished speaking.

There was an inexplicable light in her pair of green eyes that belonged to Lily, staring scorchingly at the old and wise face emerging from the flame in the fireplace.

"I guess, the password for tonight is probably—'Horcrux'." She stared at the face in flames, and said slowly.

【Hello! ! ! 】The system bacteria roared in her brain almost immediately.

[Don't over-explore things you shouldn't know!And don't overly guide the original characters to make redundant ideas before the destined plot happens, which will lead to the collapse of the plot! !You manage too much!This is not something you should worry about! 】The system bacteria sternly drank.

Liu Quan squinted his eyes reflexively, and his head buzzed with the roar of the system bacteria.

She crossed the line again.In other words - her hint was discovered by the system bacteria again and failed.

Maybe she should have said "Little Hangleton" or "Gaunt" or "Riddle"? !But those few words sound just as deadly as pointing to the Resurrection Stone ring imbued with powerful black magic.She couldn't think of any words that could suggest that Dumbledore was careful and not be warned by the system bacteria.Liu Quan suddenly felt extremely irritable and powerless for a moment.

Of course, she knew that all this was futile and harmful.However, sometimes, people just do some crazy and futile things—knowing that the ending will not change much, but still foolishly wanting to see a different result—

A slight, subconscious spasm passed across Dumbledore's face almost instantly.However, he concealed it too well, his expression was still so calm, that face shook back and forth in the flames, expressing his denial.

"Oh, my child, I'm sorry, you guessed wrong." There was a hint of a smile in his voice, but Liu Quan always felt that the smile sounded a bit deliberate.

"Tonight's password is - 'Peppermint Toad'."

Liu Quan sighed.

She has said enough.In fact, she couldn't undo the course of the plot, or Dumbledore's sacrifice.If even the greatest white wizard in the world had to be preserved, then she would know without asking the system bacteria—the plot would definitely collapse.Dumbledore wasn't as single-minded and easy to deal with as Sirius Black.If he survives, he will completely disrupt the following plot, and overthrow the situation that she has worked so hard to manage until now.

Liu Quan didn't dare to take such a risk.

She is such a selfish person.She thought with self-mockery and self-loathing.

She would endure and ignore all other sacrifices and tragedies in order for Severus Snape to survive, in order to be able to accomplish her ultimate mission.Including letting Albus Dumbledore die - how despicable, how dark, how solitary, how Slytherin, as a Gryffindor she played for many years -

For no reason, a few poems suddenly appeared in her mind.

[I am here to pray that everyone will stop crying; to let you know how much I love you.On a hot summer afternoon, a long wait.The old path is like a father's face, a lonely wild flower, quietly disappearing. 】

She stared at the old face in the flames, and finally said softly, "Good luck, Professor Dumbledore."

Dumbledore's face in the fireplace smiled at her, said nothing more, and disappeared.

Liu Quan immediately stood up, stepped into the fireplace, and said, "The principal's office."

Although the fireplaces at Hogwarts are connected to each other, only the fireplace in the headmaster's room can lead to the outside world.Liu Quan felt very inconvenient about the design of this LAN.But now she doesn't care about complaining - she must act immediately to find Severus Snape, and before Dumbledore comes back, they must prepare enough and good enough potions to treat the world. The greatest white wizard.

But all these worries cannot be told to anyone.

Liu Quan stepped out of the fireplace.The principal's room was very quiet, Phoenix Fox was not there, and Dumbledore had already left.

Alas, what a big bug in the plot.Liu Quan thought resentfully.

If Dumbledore is unwilling to involve others in this dangerous journey, then Fawkes will always be his little pet, and it doesn't matter to take it with him!The phoenix will always be reborn. After Dumbledore stabbed the Horcrux with the Gryffindor sword, before putting on the ring himself, it wouldn't hurt to put it on Fox's ankle first, right? ...

Loophole!It's all loopholes!The most hateful thing is that these loopholes are connected together and can form a huge trap, trapping all the people she doesn't want to see each other die, and taking their lives!And she can only watch all this happen helplessly and there is nothing she can do!

Without pausing, Liu Quan grabbed a handful from a box of Floo powder placed on the hearth of the fireplace, threw it into the air, and shouted, "No. 19 Spider's End Lane!"

Almost seconds later she burst from a grimy fireplace onto the dusty floor.

She looked around, but there seemed to be no one in the room.

Snape's movements had always been monotonous.He was either at Hogwarts or at his own home at 19 Spinner's End.He even seldom went to Diagon Alley, and occasionally went to the black shop deep in Knockturn Alley to pick some rare potion ingredients of unknown origin but of excellent quality.But he only visited Knockturn Alley a few days ago - because Willow Quan once noticed the huge pile of extra bottles and cans in his office - then if he is not at Hogwarts, nor at Spider's Tail Lane, then there is only one possibility for his whereabouts - he was summoned by the Dark Lord.

Liu Quan sighed.

Voldemort often liked to torture his men with the Cruciatus Curse, even his most powerful men were not spared.Every time Snape suffered from the Cruciatus Curse, he would always go back to Spider's End to rest and heal first, and would not return to Hogwarts until at least on the surface he looked clean.

Liu Quan used "clean up" on the sofa in the living room, then looked at the surrounding environment which was as deserted as an empty house for a long time, sighed and waved his magic wand, intending to act as a housekeeper The elf cleaned the place a little for Snape.

When all the rooms at No. 19 Spider's End Lane that could be entered at will—of course Liu Quan knew which rooms could not be touched—had been sorted out by her, there was a sound of heavy footsteps coming from the gate.Then there was a "squeak", and the old door was opened.The sound of footsteps stopped immediately.The living room was silent.

Liu Quan, who was sitting on the sofa, raised her wand and cast a "Luminescence" spell, a little light came out from the tip of her wand.

The black-robed wizard standing at the door almost immediately saw clearly who the unexpected guest was by the dim light.His body froze slightly, his expression became more gloomy, as if someone had offended his territory, he walked into the house with great displeasure, and quickly closed the door behind him.

"You shouldn't be here." He said simply, still standing by the door.

Liu Quan stood up slowly from the sofa, not in the mood to chat with him in circles.

"Look, Severus, it was Albus who sent me to you," she said bluntly. "I suspect he's up to something big—because he's got you to Hogwarts." the headmaster's office and wait for his return. He couldn't look around for you just now, so he had to order me to do it—he doesn't do it very often, does he?"

Snape's expression changed almost immediately.He strode into the living room and stopped in front of Liu Quan. "when did it happen?!"

Liu Quan waved his magic wand lightly, and several numbers appeared in the air—11:10 p.m., the current time.

She thought for a moment and replied, "A few hours ago. I saw him before dinner—in my office fireplace, to be exact."

Snape's face was extremely serious, he frowned and thought carefully, then asked again: "He didn't say where he was going or what he was going to do?"

Liu Quan shook his head and answered truthfully: "I asked, but he just answered me that he was rushing out because 'I want to go into the night to chase that frivolous and seductive temptress-adventure'... ..."

It looked like Snape didn't appreciate Dumbledore's poetry and humor at all.His face darkened and he looked a little scary.He closed his lips tightly, thought for a few minutes, and asked hurriedly, "What do you think about this?"

Liu Quan immediately remembered her temptation and the warning of the system bacteria.She continued to shake her head calmly, and replied, "What Albus doesn't want others to know, others have no chance of knowing - you know that too, Severus?"

Snape snorted annoyedly, strode away, and rushed down the stairs, apparently rummaging in the cellar of the house where he always made potions.Ten minutes later, he finally came back, his expression was as gloomy and unpredictable as the sky before a storm.

"But you don't think what he's going to do is a good thing?" he asked her without looking back, as he strode toward the fireplace in the living room.

"Obviously." Liu Quan spread out his hands and followed behind him in time. "He doesn't always have to find you before he goes out. Make sure you stay in the principal's office and you won't leave. You must be the first person he sees after he comes back, right? This matter must be of great importance, Severus .I'm not sure where he's going or what he's going to do, but I think he thinks he's going to need your help—there's not much that can stop Dumbledore, is there?"

Snape uttered an inaudible low curse, grabbed a handful of Floo powder from the stove, and shouted, "Hogwarts headmaster's office!"

Liu Quan followed him into the fireplace.
