Chapter 194 Questioning
Chapter 194 Questioning
Snape's left cheek became red and swollen, and the corner of his mouth was cut, and a little blood spilled out. He didn't touch his face, nor wiped the blood. He looked at the flushed Sirius with a gray face, and his black eyes were extremely empty.
"Snape..." Remus hugged Sirius tightly from behind, looking at him in shock and pain, "I didn't expect it was you..."
"Why didn't you think it was him?" Sirius laughed nervously, "Didn't he always want to curry favor with that devil Lord Voldemort? Ever since he was in school, he's been hanging out with those Death Eater reservists, concentrating on learning the dark arts. Isn't it him? Snape, you must be very happy to hear the prophecy? You can tell your Dark Lord the news so that he can reward you for his respect and allow you to kiss his feet, can't you? As for which family was destroyed by Voldemort because of the prophecy, you never cared about that, did you?"
Sirius' handsome face added a bit of evil spirit, half of his face was hidden in the darkness, and there was some madness in his gray eyes. His appearance was a little bit like that of Bellatrix Lestrange, who took pleasure in torturing people. They are similar, but there is nothing wrong with that. After all, they all have the blood of the Black family, and the paranoid madness in their bones really exists.
"You don't know that the prophecy says it's the child of James and Lily," he sneered, "You know in your heart that if Voldemort finds out, Voldemort will definitely kill the child in the prophecy. You clearly know your actions It would have ruined a family, it would have killed them, and you did it anyway, because you were a filthy, disgusting Death Eater, and you stink like that inside!"
Snape swayed slightly, and McGonagall couldn't bear to close his eyes.
"You always hated James, didn't you? You hated him because he was better than you in every way, because Lily ended up falling in love with him, and you were jealous of him—look at your ugly face, every day at school Looking at Harry and Anne, you treat them very differently, don't you? As much as you hate Harry's face, you like Anne's face. But they are just them, not a substitute for you to vent your dirty feelings!"
"Tell me, Snape. Didn't you feel any guilt when you looked at Annie? Did you really feel no regret when you looked at her and Lily's seven-quarter-like face? "
"Sirius," said Dumbledore, "even I sometimes get a little dazed when I look at the faces of Harry and Anne."
Sirius panted heavily, and he was very happy to see Snape speechless, but after venting, he also blamed himself and felt more painful.
"James and Lily's death, you are a sinner, so why am I not their executioner..." He murmured, kneeling on the ground weakly, shaking his body back and forth a few times, as if he was suppressing the pain in his throat. The whine that was about to rush out, he hugged his head, hitting the cold floor again and again.
"It was I who suggested that James and Lily change the secret keeper. I suspected that Remus was a spy... Hahahahaha, I actually suspected that Remus was a spy. Let James and Lily use Peter, a timid mouse, yes I trusted people who shouldn’t be trusted, it was me, I caused them to die, I let Harry and Annie lose their parents, I let Peter go free, I spent 12 years in Azkaban, and I let Annie die She was wronged outside, but no one could save her! I was supposed to be their guardian, it was me, I caused all this!!!”
Remus knelt down and hugged Sirius who was crying bitterly, his usually gentle face was twisted in pain at this moment, "It's not your fault... Sirius, I really don't blame you..."
"No, I hurt them, Annie hated me even more... She was right to hate me, I failed them, I should have protected her, I should have let her grow up in peace... It's all mine Wrong... I still doubted you, Remus, how stupid I was back then, I should have been imprisoned in Azkaban to atone for my sins, I even doubted my best brother!"
Sirius whimpered like a wounded beast, and Remus' eyes were flushed, "I don't allow you to say that! I didn't blame you, neither did James and Lily, why did you think you stayed in Azka? Ben is their atonement? Look at Harry, look at Annie! You should be with them both, you are their godfather! You owe it to them both, so stand up for me, Sirius Blake!" he yelled.
McGonagall wiped the tears from her face, looked at Dumbledore sideways, "Albus, you know all this."
Dumbledore's blue eyes under the lens dimmed, "Severus immediately asked me for help after he learned that the boy in the prophecy was Lily's child, and at that time, he became our side, Being a double agent for Voldemort. Sirius..." He closed his eyes and sighed, "I didn't know he and James had secretly changed Secret Keepers, otherwise..."
"How can you be sure that he won't betray us like he betrayed Voldemort?" Sirius said coldly, "I think he's playing tricks like this."
"I won't betray Lily!" Snape said, who had been silent all this time, he took a step forward, his dark, empty eyes suddenly lit up surprisingly, "Maybe you all think I'm a despicable informer... I am, but for Lily's sake..."
"Willing to betray your old master for Lily?" Sirius interrupted him with a sneer on his face, "Snape, you are truly great."
"Severus has been protecting Harry and Anne, Sirius. Although he didn't like Harry on the surface, he also protected Harry during your absence." Dumbledore said gently, "I I believe he will spare no effort to protect Lily's child, and he did."
Sirius stared at him without speaking, he knew that Snape had indeed protected Harry in school, and at that time he was still in Azkaban.
"Lily's death... I regret it all my life," Snape said in a low voice. "To protect her child, I would give everything, even die." The moment she dies, it goes with her."
"You must not die, Severus, your mission is not yet complete," said Dumbledore, and, I don't think Lily would want you to give up your life out of remorse. "
Sirius' chest heaved several times, and he smiled meanly, "Yeah, you don't deserve to die, Snape, you don't deserve to see Lily at all, she and James are together even if they die, so what do you count?" what?"
The wooden door was roughly pushed open, and Sirius strode out of the room with a sullen face.
"...Harry?"
Harry leaned against the wall, and slowly raised his head to look at Sirius who was full of panic. The other adults also came out, with expressions of surprise, sadness and intolerance mixed on their faces when they saw Harry.
Harry gave them a forced smile, "I'm going to see Anne."
He stood up, didn't look at anyone, and went straight to the ward. Mr. Weasley was standing at the door of a room on the other side of the open space. He knocked on the door, and several children came out of the room.
For a while, no one spoke.
Harry was sitting alone on the edge of the bed, looking down at Annie's face. Now that he thought about it, he used to be upset that Annie was a student in Slytherin, because everyone said the Sorting Hat was People can't be wrongly classified, Anne herself said that she was born to belong to Slytherin.And he was a Gryffindor, which made him panic.
He was once afraid that Annie would take a different path from him—or even an opposite path. He was afraid that he and Annie would be estranged because of the college, even though they were brothers and sisters.
He felt threatened by different and rival schools, and he hated anything that would cost him his sister.
But now he doesn't think it's such a big deal that the college is different, and it will be lost forever after life and death.
Harry held Annie's hand tightly, thinking calmly, he was no longer a child protected by his elders, he wanted to become a force that could protect his sister.
Someone's broad palm covered his shoulders. Harry looked up and saw Dumbledore's gentle and sad face. Harry didn't know what to say, and turned his head to look at Anne again.
Dumbledore knew that it was Snape who overheard the prophecy, and he was the one who asked Snape to be a double agent. Harry knew in his heart that Dumbledore would never tell him these things unless it was the last moment.
"Can Annie have to carry it by herself?" Harry said softly. "Is there no other way?"
"We can't forcefully enter her brain to restore her memory. Her mental power is much stronger than I imagined," Dumbledore said gently. "To be precise, I think her mental power is even greater than mine."
"How could it be... You are obviously such a powerful wizard." Harry was puzzled.
"I'm not in the slightest ashamed of your compliment, Harry," said Dumbledore, "I thought I was a very powerful wizard, too, but when it came to Annie, I couldn't be bothered, she was so smart and so powerful. "
"Stop joking with me," said Harry. "Is there really no other way?"
"Yes, there is. Annie's heart is full of hatred because she only remembers the malice she felt. If we can remind her of the good memories of the past and let her re-experience the love she once received, maybe it will be possible. Let her wake up." Dumbledore thought thoughtfully, "But Anne is so repulsive to outsiders now, I haven't figured out a way to keep her from being excited for the time being."
"May she feel our love again..." Harry frowned, "But how do we show her that love."
He suddenly realized something.
"Hermione!" He lowered his voice, full of joy in his heart, "Professor Dumbledore, I think she must be able to feel Hermione's love, because she loves her so deeply, and Anne must not have seen it before she got angry. Hermione, when she wakes up, let's let her see Hermione alone."
Dumbledore fell silent for a moment, then nodded.
"Okay, let's try again when Annie wakes up."
