Chapter 192 The Deal with Snape



So, under Wentworth's expectant gaze and in the tense atmosphere of Hermione and Ron, Harry and Draco held their breath, as if they were all ready to attack with all their strength.

But just when Harry and Draco were trying their best, the door of the Room of Requirement was opened from the outside.

"Hanging fuchsia!"

"Fainted!"

As the two cast the spell, Ron and Hermione exclaimed: "Professor Snape?!"

Hearing the two people's exclamations, Harry and Draco subconsciously looked out the door in horror at the same time, but forgot that they were dueling with each other at the moment.

Accompanied by a scream, Harry and Draco were separated on the duel field, one above and one below.

Harry felt a force sweeping through his body in an instant. He stood upside down involuntarily and floated in the air, while Draco fell straight to the ground with a muffled sound.

Wentworth just glanced at Harry and Draco, sighed and shook his head, then turned to Professor Snape and said with a flattering smile:

"Professor Snape, what a coincidence!"

But Snape ignored Wentworth's greetings. He immediately looked up and set his eyes on Harry who was hanging upside down in the air. Then, Snape gritted his teeth and said, "Wentworth, no need to ask, you must have taught Draco this spell, right?"

Wentworth laughed, then slowly walked to Snape's side and said softly, "Professor Snape, you are wrong. In fact, it was a wizard named Half-Blood Prince who taught Harry!"

Snape was startled when he heard Wentworth's words, but then Wentworth stuck close to Snape and continued speaking in a voice that only the two of them could hear:

"I had a dream last night. In the dream, there was a wizard who called himself the Half-Blood Prince. He said that I took his notes and asked me to pay him. The price was that I let the son of my enemy who had hung him upside down on a tree enjoy the same treatment he had received at that time. That child was Harry."

"What a coincidence, Professor Snape, the wizard who calls himself the Half-Blood Prince, looks a bit like you."

After a moment's silence, Snape looked at Wentworth and said in a deep voice: "So, he must hate that child very much?"

Wentworth shook his head and responded:

"No, you are wrong, Professor Snape. In fact, he loves that child very much. After all, that child has the eyes of his most beloved person. Slytherin's paper airplane only flies to the one he loves, doesn't it?"

After hearing what Wentworth said, Snape seemed to be lost in some memories, which stunned Hermione and Ron, who were standing far away and trembling with fear.

Ron was shocked and whispered: "Oh my God, Senior Wentworth, who is he? Even Professor Snape..."

Before Ron could finish his words, he saw Hermione looking at Wentworth with admiration, which made Ron curl his lips and swallow the words in his mouth.

But then, Snape came to his senses, and strode into the Room of Requirement. He patted Ron and Hermione on the head, then took out his wand and pointed at Harry in the sky and Draco who had fainted on the ground: "Golden Bell Falls!"

"Stop the curse immediately!"

When Draco slowly woke up and Harry stood up with the help of Ron, Snape immediately said, "Deduct 30 points from everyone!"

Hearing Snape's words, Ron was the first to scream:

"Thirty minutes?! That's too much!"

Snape glanced at Ron and said:

"You should be thankful that there is no detention as a punishment for violating the school curfew and engaging in a wizard duel in private. Hogwarts no longer has this punishment!"

Hermione tried to explain: "Professor Snape, it was only Harry and Draco dueling, we didn't..."

However, before Hermione could finish her words, she shut her mouth under Snape's stern gaze. Then, Snape waved his hand and said viciously: "If you don't go back to that damn dormitory, each of you will get fifty points!"

At this time, Snape called Wentworth: "Wentworth, stay a moment!"

Harry and Draco looked at Wentworth with some worry, but Wentworth smiled and told them not to worry. Soon, everyone except Wentworth left the Room of Requirement. Wentworth could even hear Hermione complaining to them in the corridor:

"30 points each, and the three of us deducted 90 points from Gryffindor! Oh my God, Professor McGonagall will be mad!"

“Bang!”

Suddenly, Snape waved the door of the Room of Requirement and closed it. The noise in the corridor stopped abruptly. Wentworth turned his head and looked at Snape, only to see that Professor Snape was also staring at him closely.

But Wentworth was not afraid at all, and said with a smile on his face:

"Professor Snape, you are keeping me here. Are you planning to put me in detention?"

Snape looked at Wentworth and said, "What do you know?"

Snape smiled and said:

"I know far more than you give me credit for! Don't forget, Professor Trelawney, you call me a prophet!"

After hearing Wentworth's answer, Snape said unhappily: "The blood talent of the Grindelwald family?!"

Wentworth's smile widened.

"You do know my identity, Professor Snape."

And Snape replied: "I know much more than you think I know!"

Wentworth: ...

After a long silence, Snape continued to ask: "What will Harry's future be like?"

Wentworth spread his hands and said, "Professor Snape, you think too highly of me. No one can fully see the distant future, not even me!"

Wentworth naturally wouldn't tell Snape that Harry would have both a son and a daughter in the future, but you can't see it!

But seeing that Snape was silent, Wentworth continued:

"However, in the near future, Harry will encounter a crisis!"

Wentworth's words instantly attracted Snape's attention. Although he still had the same expression as in years past, Snape still spoke: "You are friends. It was you who brought Harry to Hogwarts. You would not watch him get into danger, right?"

But Wentworth shook his head slowly and said:

"No, you are wrong, Professor Snape. I went to pick up Harry because of the deal between me and Headmaster Dumbledore! Harry and I have only met a few times, so we can't be called friends!"

Snape seemed to have lost his patience with the probing between the two parties, and he no longer concealed his feelings and said directly:

"Tell me, what will it take for Harry to be safe? What do you want? Wentworth Grindelwald!"

Wentworth smiled and said:

"I want to make the same deal with you!"
