Harry Potter: The Path of Destiny

Chapter 251 Is this Moody’s test?

Nidia stood at the door and heard some quarrels, but could not hear clearly what they said. Not long after, Karkaroff walked out of the classroom angrily. Nidia thought she could go in, but Then Harry walked out again.

"Harry! What did you...?" Nydia looked at Harry in surprise.

"I...I accidentally knocked something over, so I kept cleaning it inside..." Harry looked a little panicked.

"Did you hear the content of their conversation?" Nidia asked.

"Yes, I heard it!" Harry looked around and whispered, "I'll tell you when I get back to the common room."

"What do you want to tell Nydia? Potter!" The door to the potions classroom was opened again, and Snape appeared at the door.

"Ah..." Harry obviously didn't expect Snape to appear suddenly, and he didn't know how to explain what he just said.

But Snape didn't wait for Harry to answer, and he didn't seem to care what Harry wanted to say. He turned to look at Nydia.

"Come in! Remember to close the door!" After saying that, Snape turned and entered the classroom.

Nydia stared at Snape's back for a while, then turned to the confused Harry and said, "See you in the common room!" After saying that, Nydia walked into the classroom.

"You know I'm looking for you?" Nitya asked in surprise, "How could this happen?"

"How many drops of armadillo bile should I add? Hum!" Snape snorted mockingly, "You have brewed this potion countless times."

Snape walked behind the podium and sat down, "Tell me! What do you want to do?"

"Ah... I want to know, does Professor Moody know my identity?" Nidia asked the question that had been in her mind for many days.

"Why do you ask that?" Snape looked at Nydia in confusion.

"Because he said some strange things to me, which made me feel confused!" Nitya said.

"Tell me about it!" said Snape.

"He told me...he is the only person I can trust in this castle...he has checked my scores in various subjects, and he even told me that he can teach me Legilimency..." Nidia He told Snape about the conversation between Moody and him that day.

"How did you answer?" Snape's expression was very calm, with no emotional fluctuations visible.

"I refused. You said I shouldn't learn this," Nidia said.

"Is this what makes you think he knows your identity?" Snape smiled sarcastically, "Tell me, who is Mad-Eye Moody?"

Nydia didn't understand the purpose of Snape's question, but she answered truthfully, "An Auror?"

"Yes! An Auror! You should know that the Auror's duty is to deal with dark wizards, and you! If he really knows your identity, do you think he will secretly teach you spells or hand you over to magic? "Where is the Ministry?" Snape said in a contemptuous tone. If Nydia didn't know him well enough, she might have slammed the door right now.

"But what did he mean by what he said to me? He should know that students are prohibited from learning Legilimency." Nidia asked in confusion.

"There is nothing surprising about this. He is investigating everyone. He has searched almost every teacher's office. You are close to Potter, so it is not surprising that he is investigating you." Snee Pu said, "As for Legilimency, it's probably just a test for you! It's good that you weren't fooled."

"Testing me? Just because I'm close to Harry?" Nydia felt incredible, but Snape's statement made her feel relieved. "Then why doesn't he test Hermione or Ron? Their relationship will be better."

"Oh! That's probably because their surname is not Field." Snape thought Nydia had asked a stupid question.

"Okay! If he did this for Harry's safety, it's understandable." It seemed that he was thinking too much.

"Moody wants to ensure Potter's safety. I think he must first teach Potter not to wander around the castle after lights out." Snape said with a hint of anger in his tone.

Nydia knew that Snape was talking about the day when Moody took away the Marauder's Map, and she wanted to explain to Harry, "I heard Harry talk about what happened that night. In fact, he The reason why I haven’t returned to the common room so late is to solve the clue to the golden egg in the second project.”

"What is his brain made of? Do you have to wait until so late to unlock the clues to the golden egg? Does it only work after the lights-out time?" Snape looked a little angry, "Even as a member of the Triwizard Tournament As a warrior, he still has no right to steal my personal belongings!"

"Um... Regarding your personal storage, I must admit to you that I actually gave Harry the gillweed..." Nydia smiled awkwardly at Snape.

"Is it you?" Snape looked at Nydia with suspicion. He didn't quite believe what Nydia said.

"The fourth row of shelves on the left, the eighth bottle from left to right... Gillweed!"

As soon as Nydia finished speaking, Snape stood up from his seat and glared at Nydia fiercely.

"I promise I will find a new gillweed and return it to you..." Nitya said nervously.

Snape was walking back and forth behind the podium with his hands behind his back. Nydia wondered if Snape was thinking about how to punish herself. She was too nervous to speak anymore, fearing that if she accidentally said the wrong thing again, she would be punished. will become heavier.

"So you also stole the bark of the African snake?" After waiting for a long time, Snape finally spoke.

"African snake bark? No! I have not taken African snake bark. I can assure you that I still have some African snake bark myself. I just took gillweed to allow Harry to pass the first test smoothly. Two projects,” Nitya explained.

Snape was silent again. He looked at Nydia with half-closed eyes, as if he wanted to see if Nydia had lied.

"Absolutely!" Snape said almost through gritted teeth, "We won't allow it to happen again!"

"Absolutely! There won't be another time!" Nidia quickly promised.

"Get out!" Snape said coldly.

Nydia bowed politely and immediately turned around and walked out of the potions classroom quickly, before Snape wanted to punish herself.

Nydia trotted all the way back to the common room. Harry, Ron and Hermione were all there, seemingly waiting for her arrival.

"You're finally back!" Ron sighed. "Harry always insisted on waiting until you came back before telling us what he heard."

"How are you? What did Snape tell you?" Harry asked worriedly.

"It's nothing, he just talked to me about potions. The potion in my class didn't achieve the effect he wanted." Nidia felt that she was getting better and better at making up lies now.

"It failed to achieve the effect? ​​What else does he want? It's just a potion, what effect does it have to boil!" Ron complained.

"Let's listen to what Harry heard first and then move on to discuss Snape!" Nydia said.

"I didn't hear much actually, but I saw Karkaroff showing Snape his arm and saying something that was becoming more and more obvious, and he thought Snape must have felt it too." Ha. Lee said.

"So?" Ron asked confused.

"It's the Dark Mark! Idiot!" Hermione rolled her eyes at Ron. "Karkaroff showing Snape his mark means that Snape is probably also a Death Eater!"

"He must be a Death Eater!" said Ron.

"But if he is a Death Eater, why does Dumbledore still trust him so much? I think there must be other reasons for this." Hermione said.

"Dumbledore liked giving people second chances, what Moody said, do you remember?" Harry said, "I think that's why Snape was given a second chance."

Nydia didn't say anything. The fact that Snape and Karkaroff were Death Eaters was not news to her, and she hadn't been there all the time. What worried her more was Karkaroff's mention of "crossing the border". It's becoming more and more obvious.' If the Dark Mark becomes more and more obvious, it can only mean that Voldemort is becoming more and more powerful.
