After the duel ended, Prefect Jones stood directly on the podium, looked at the people below with a stern expression and said:"Now that the duel is over, it's time for us to discuss the sneak attack just now!"

"We have said repeatedly before the duel that other people must not participate during the duel! But I didn't expect that there would be someone who was disobedient and bold enough to release black magic! This is very serious behavior! That black magic can easily break the magic barrier set up by a few of us, which is deadly enough!"

"I will report this matter to the dean for handling. If it is discovered who did it, he will be expelled!"

Derek in the crowd immediately became nervous when he heard this. He was afraid that someone would find out that he had done it, so he lowered his head even lower.

"No, I'm already here!"Snape's rich voice sounded directly in the common room. At the door, Professor Snape lifted the Disillusionment Curse and appeared in front of everyone. It seemed that he had been here for a while.

Derek As soon as he saw Snape, his face suddenly turned pale, and he kept praying in his heart that he had not seen the sneak attack just now.

Under the awe-inspiring eyes of everyone, Snape walked from the aisle formed by the students to get out of the way, and came to the competition stage with his wand. With a wave of his hand, the wooden platform returned to carpet. Then he looked at the students around him and said in a cold voice:"Now that the duel is over, why are you still here?"

When the students heard this, they immediately dispersed in a hurry. Not everyone could bear Snape's aura.

Snape looked at Derek, who also wanted to leave, and shouted in a cold voice:"Derek stays. Down!"

When Derek heard this, he turned around and looked at Snape's terrifying eyes. He stood there with a pale expression, not caring about being stared at by everyone in surprise. All he wanted to do now was to end it!

Snape turned around to look Xiang Peter, his expression softened,"You come to my office with Derek, let's go."

Peter looked at Derek, who had a sad look on his side. He guessed something, and his eyes suddenly stared at him coldly. That black magic, after shattering the magic barrier jointly arranged by several senior students, was still able to defeat him. Under the protection of the super armor, he persisted for a long time before dissipating. This was because he had the idea of ​​killing himself!

He followed Snape out of the common room and came to the office. Snape closed the door as soon as he entered the office, and then He looked directly at Derek coldly,"Do you know why I called you over?"

"me......"Derek stood restlessly, hesitating and speechless, and cold sweat broke out on his face.

"You used a very serious black magic on your classmates! Snape yelled at him angrily,"Has your brain been bitten by the Billywig bug?" The use of such black magic is strictly prohibited by the Ministry of Magic! And you actually used it on your own junior students! If Peter York hadn't reacted in time, there would be a corpse lying on the ground now! Do you want to be locked up in Azkaban for the rest of your life like your father?"

Under Snape's rage, Derek trembled and begged for mercy:"Professor Snape, please don't put me in Azkaban. I was wrong! I won’t dare anymore! Peter on the side sneered,"Derek, if apologizing is useful, then what else do you need Oro for?" Is it possible that if you kill someone, you can be forgiven just by saying sorry? Derek said bitterly:"You have nothing to do, and I just wanted to interfere and make you lose, but I didn't expect the magic props to be so powerful!" Looking at Derek, who still didn't know where he was wrong, Snape said disappointedly:"I will send a message to your parents, and then you can decide for yourself whether you want to have a private or public relationship with Mr. York!" But I suggest you better ask Peter York for forgiveness and ask him to drop the prosecution against you, otherwise you will be expelled from school and even go to Azkaban to go to jail!"

Snape said to him impatiently:"Go back and think about it carefully. It's best to use an owl to explain the situation to your family first, and then come back tomorrow night."

Derek opened his mouth to say something, but under Snape's gaze, he was speechless. Then he wanted to plead with Peter, but Peter regarded him as an invisible person and ignored him.

Derek looked lonely. He left the office, leaving only Peter and Snape.

Snape sat on his chair, looked at Peter seriously, and then said:"You should know that the pure-blood forces in the wizarding world are still powerful, and the relationship is complicated.. Even if what happened today were made public, the worst possible outcome would be for Derek to be expelled from school. They could find many ways to escape punishment! So I hope that when you wait for Derek's parents to come to school tomorrow, you can take the opportunity to ask for compensation in exchange for him not being expelled from school. Peter still felt a little aggrieved and said unwillingly:"Then let's just forget about him using black magic on me?" Compensate a little and pretend nothing happened? Snape looked at the boy in front of him and said seriously:"As long as you improve your strength to the point where you are not afraid of others, you can trample all these people under your feet!" Even make them bow to you! But before that, you need to quietly accumulate strength, especially because many things in these pure-blood wizard families are not available outside. Exchange for these things is very beneficial to your growth! Snape said to him with satisfaction:"The reward you choose for winning the duel is a magic book. This is a good choice." The true heritage of a pure-blood wizard family has never been the number of Galleons, but the family magic accumulated over hundreds of years. Many of them are not even available in the Hogwarts library, so you can collect more such magic books. , slowly form your own background! Peter knew that Professor Snape meant well, so he nodded and said,"Then I will ask Derek tomorrow to use their family's family magic or the only copy of the magic book in exchange for my not being held responsible!" Allowing him to continue studying at Hogwarts."

Seeing this obvious student, a smile flashed in Snape's eyes. Such a talented, cautious, and clear-headed person might be able to rival or even surpass Dumbledore as long as he grows up.! Slytherin has not had a famous magician for a long time. Of course, the infamous Dark Lord is not among them.

"You go back first and come back tomorrow afternoon. Don't say anything then and just follow my arrangements. These pure-blood wizards are not easy to deal with! You have to be mentally prepared."Snape said.

Peter nodded obediently. Since Snape stated that he was on his side, of course he was willing to believe it. He said gratefully:"I will trouble you tomorrow, Professor! Snape pretended to be impatient,"

Go back quickly. I don't want to see you running around in the castle during curfew time. If you are caught by me, you will know the consequences!""

Peter agreed with a smile, and then left the office.

In the office, Snape's originally gentle expression suddenly became cold and his eyes were empty. He turned toward the fireplace and said,"Dumbledore, how long have you been here? I remember this was my office!"
