Chapter 154 Severus, I am the principal!

With a bang, the door of the principal’s office was pushed open heavily.

Dumbledore put down his quill, raised his eyes and said helplessly:”Severus, next time you enter my office, remember to knock on the door in advance. Don’t be so surprised every time.””

“You have to know that I’m old and can’t afford to be frightened too much.”

Snape curled his lips. He hoped that he could scare Dumbledore to death in this way, so that Professor McGonagall could become the principal, and he would be the deputy principal.

When he becomes the deputy principal’s head , One thing is to drive Lockhart and Harry out of Hogwarts Castle!

Unfortunately, Dumbledore’s old age is the biggest joke he has ever heard.

Other wizards will increase in strength as their bodies age. Decline. But as for Dumbledore, even though he was over a hundred years old, he still maintained his peak strength and even improved.

Snape thought of Dumbledore’s good friend, Nico Flamel.

Damn, he looked at him with a look. Shen, Dumbledore must have drank the elixir of life, right? Does he plan to stay in the position of headmaster until he is six or seven hundred years old?

For the first time, Snape felt confused about his future. He also wanted to be a Hogwart. The headmaster of Tz!

He directly pulled up the chair in front of Dumbledore and sat in, asking his own question:”Headmaster, do you have any idea about Lockhart’s recent changes?”

Dumbledore shook his head.

Snape slammed the table angrily,”I don’t believe that the great Dumbledore didn’t have doubts about why a liar who couldn’t even cast magic suddenly turned into a competent professor.”

Dumbledore raised his hand to calm him down, and he slowly said:”I really don’t know why he changed like this, but it can be ruled out that someone used polyjuice potion or body transformation to replace the real Lockhart..”

The old principal pointed to a piece of parchment spread out on his right side. On it appeared a map of Hogwarts and the names of everyone in the castle.

The most peculiar thing is that the names displayed on it are still changing. Everyone moves due to changes in their location

“The Marauder’s Map? Snape’s eyes narrowed,”Did you borrow it from that brat?””

They all obviously knew who the brat Snape was referring to. Dumbledore nodded slightly:”Yes, judging from the information displayed on the Marauder’s Map, at least we can be sure that Lockhart has not been replaced.”

“I don’t trust it.”Snape sneered, not hiding his disgust.

The existence of the Marauder’s Map is no longer a secret. After Sirius’s hearing, everyone knew about this magical magic item from Ives.

From Considered from this perspective, Snape’s worries are not unreasonable.

If someone really replaces Lockhart’s identity, then he will definitely be on guard against the Marauder’s Map.

“You should have confirmed Lockhart’s identity in various ways,” Dumbledore said warmly.

“Well,” Snape snorted coldly in response.

After so many days of contact, he was indeed sure that Lockhart had not been replaced. After all, not everyone can perform his exaggerated character.

Therefore , , that’s why he went to see the principal tonight. Snape really couldn’t figure out how an ignorant liar could have such strength in a short time.

Dumbledore’s right index finger kept touching the table As he nodded, his brows furrowed tightly, as if he was thinking about countermeasures.

The atmosphere in the office just solidified.

After a while, he spoke:”Severus, we can on

ly wait and see what happens.””

“If I were the headmaster, I would definitely fire Lockhart immediately. Snape laughed sarcastically,”No matter what secrets he hides, I don’t care.” But as long as he leaves the castle, he cannot threaten the students of Hogwarts”

“Let me tell you, you should never have hired a liar to teach Defense Against the Dark Arts in the first place!”The more he spoke, the more excited he became, spitting in front of Dumbledore.

The old headmaster sighed. He was also very tired. If even a normal wizard took the initiative to apply to teach a class, he would not invite Lockhart..

Snape was still spraying venom, accusing Dumbledore that he shouldn’t just recruit people to be the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, he should be allowed to do it.

“That’s enough, Severus, I’m the Headmaster.”The old principal said angrily.

Snape sneered, stood up and slammed the door and left. After he left,

Dumbledore took off the half-moon glasses on the bridge of his nose and wiped the lenses tiredly.

If it weren’t for Voldemort’s curse, Hogg would Watts wouldn’t change the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor every year.

Tom… there was one thing that the old headmaster didn’t tell Snape – he felt a very faint and disturbing feeling in the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom. He was familiar with the smell of dark magic.

He was almost certain that Lockhart’s change was due to Voldemort.

Dumbledore put the cleaned glasses back on, and then took out a locket from the cabinet.

He used the old His dry palms rubbed the S-shaped snake mark on it, and there was a trace of helplessness in his eyes – after trying almost all methods, he could not open it. He had actually experienced the temptation from the Horcrux and the profoundness of this black magic. After gaining strength, Dumbledore secretly guessed that Lockhart’s change was probably not because of Voldemort, but because of one of his…horcruxes.

……

At noon the next day,

Elvis and Hermione returned to the common room together, preparing to go to the dormitory to get the textbooks for the next class.

They were surprised to find a small group of people gathered around the bulletin board, reading the words on a piece of parchment that had just been nailed up.

Almost all the people around there were boys, Terry and Michael were having a heated discussion, while the girls were sitting in the chairs in the common room, looking uninterested.

Seeing Ives coming, Terry hurriedly greeted him

“They’re starting a dueling club! Terry said excitedly,”The first party will be held in the auditorium tonight, and I can’t wait to show off!””

“You’re so half-assed,” Michael interrupted, mockingly saying,”You can’t even block my punch.”

Terry and Michael struggled with each other.

Ives looked at them speechlessly, what on earth did you want to do by calling me over?

“Duel Club? Hermione showed an expectant expression,”Will Professor Flitwick be the one to teach us?” Ives shrugged. He was training in duels with Professor Flitwick. He knew very well that his dean was not that flamboyant.

He poured cold water on Hermione mercilessly,”No way, the professor didn’t fight with me.” I mentioned this.

Seeing him say this, Hermione became even more confused,”Who could it be? Could it be Snape?””

“Guess who in school likes to do this kind of publicity thing the most?”

“Lockhart?!”Hermione looked shocked.

She immediately dropped her face and no longer looked forward to the activities held in the evening.
