Harry Potter’s Defense Professor

"Hermione—" Lockhart slowed down, "and Ginny, this time I can guarantee that Snape is on our side, you trust my judgment once."

"Dumbledore made us believe his judgment too!" Hermione argued, "but he was-"

"But he's right!" said Lockhart, "People in the Order of the Phoenix often say that Dumbledore never trusts or misses anyone except Snape, but I've proven that Snape has not defected, so don't worry, okay? ."

"How can you rest assured! Once your thinking goes wrong, it will kill us all!"

"I have no other way to restore my body," Lockhart had to say, "Either you just watch me age and die as a baby, or believe me to take a risk, this body can't grow into a man. "

"Okay." Hermione hesitated for a while, and finally made a choice, "Ginny, do you have classes in the morning?"

"Yes, I will go to class later."

"Take the Marauder's Map with you, be careful, try not to let anyone else see Snape, and once Snape is alone and there are no other Death Eaters around, you call him over...and say I need his help ."

"Okay." Ginny took the Marauder's map, "Then you hide for now, I'm leaving."

"Ginny," Lockhart stopped her, "come back early, or you can give me some blood before leaving, I'm afraid Hermione won't be able to bear it..."

"I'm fine!" said Hermione.

"I'll go find Snape right away!" Ginny shuddered and left the Room of Requirement as if to flee.

——

Hermione approved the Invisibility Cloak, found a bed that looked like one of Gryffindor's classmates, sat down, and waited nervously.

"Maybe when Snape comes in, I should hide for a while and see how he reacts," said Hermione. "If he can't find us, scold Ginny angrily or..." she thought, and stood up. Get up and walk to the edge of the portrait. "I opened the portrait, made it look like we had escaped through the tunnel, and—"

"No, Hermione. I trust him," said Lockhart helplessly.

"Be safe."

Hermione was restless and couldn't sit still. Sometimes she touched it here, sometimes she stood up and walked, sometimes she took out the bottle and asked Lockhart if she was hungry. Do I need to drink some blood...

About two hours later, the door to the Requirement Room opened, and Hermione stared nervously at the door: Ginny walked in with her neck hunched in, then Snape in black, not sure if he had no other clothes or not. All of his clothes were like this, and Lockhart had hardly seen him in any other form.

Snape walked to the middle of the Requirement Room with a blank expression, and looked around.

"So you guys are hiding here, no wonder the Carlo brothers and sisters couldn't find it..." Snape said coldly, "Where are the others?"

"I-I don't know..." Ginny said nervously. "Hermione? Professor?"

Hermione didn't dare answer. Want to see Snape's performance. But Lockhart took the initiative: "Severus, here I am."

Snape glanced at the source of the sound, of course seeing nothing.

Seeing this, Hermione had no choice but to pull the Invisibility Cloak off, but she still held Lockhart tightly in one hand, protecting him from the side, and facing Snape with her wand in the other.

"Granger, put your wand down," Snape said with his hands down, expressionless. "If I want to deal with Gilderoy. You can't keep him with ten."

"Hermione, put down your wand," said Lockhart. "And, Severus...she's my wife now, not Granger anymore."

"Oh. Yes, I seem to have heard that guy from Loyenthal." Snape saw Lockhart in a baby state, and squeezed out a smile that looked like a mockery. "That idiot is still obsessed with your little wife. He said that although Mrs. Lockhart was not the most beautiful woman he had ever seen, her frown was very moving..." He moved his eyes to Hermione's face: " Huh, why don't I think so?"

Hermione had been staring at Snape with a frown.

Hearing this Death Eater's evaluation of himself, I was extremely embarrassed. I didn't know whether to continue frowning or change my expression, but I put down my wand anyway.

Snape also put his wand in his sleeve back into his robe and came over, Hermione took a step back involuntarily.

"Tsk tsk, anti-dark magic fighter, now you're looking like this?" The news of Lockhart's death made Snape extremely depressed. Although he was relieved to see Lockhart alive at this time, he still couldn't bear it. I wanted to ridicule a few words, "It seems that you were killed by the Dark Lord himself, and forced him to be injured a little? To save your little wife? A touching relationship between husband and wife..."

"Don't bullshit, Severus," Lockhart said. "Do you know what potion the mysterious man used to resurrect? Do you have these materials?"

"Yes, the Dark Lord gave the recipe to all the Death Eaters he trusted, and asked each of us to collect at least one in case we needed one," Snape said. "As it happens, I have collected All the materials..."

"Restore me," Lockhart said. "The material cost is mine."

"Hehe, how to calculate the cost of materials, there are many materials that can't be bought in the market..." Snape said calmly, "What do you pay for."

"Canon, it's fine for a million or less," Lockhart said.

"What's the use of me asking for money!" Snape snorted softly, "and your money is now nominally all Barty's property, do you understand?"

"Are you an Order of the Phoenix!" said Ginny angrily. "He wants something in return for helping Professor Lockhart!"

"Don't interrupt, little brat!" Snape turned his head and glared at Ginny, "Gidero, why don't you use the Philosopher's Stone? What are you going to do after your resurrection, run away with your little wife?"

"The Philosopher's Stone is no longer in my hands...I would have run long ago if I could run," Lockhart lay in Hermione's arms, but looked at Snape firmly, "I will find all the souls of You-Know-Who and kill him to avenge Alastor and the others."

"Very good, your promise is enough." Snape nodded slowly, his eyes swept up and down Hermione's body by the way, showing a disgusted expression: "I'll go to prepare things, and then here Make the Rejuvenation Potion - Before that, I suggest that Mrs. Lockhart, who frowns beautifully, take a shower and change her clothes, it looks so sloppy!"

"I—" Hermione blushed, "It's better than shampooing your hair once a month!"

"Um—who said I wash my hair once a month? I'm clearly washing my hair once a week." Snape said suspiciously, but inadvertently exposed all the details. "Who said that, dare to slander me!"

"Severus, don't pursue this frivolous thing." Lockhart coughed, which he made up two years ago when he was writing a novel about the Order of the Phoenix, but it hasn't been published yet... Hermione He must have seen the manuscript when he was flipping through his bag and took it seriously. "Ten you ** is just made up by some students you have scolded for fun, you hurry up and prepare things."

"Professor Snape..." At this time, realizing that Snape was really her own, Ginny also became bold, "Why did you want to kill the mysterious man, did he do anything to hurt you? "

...

"You-Know-Who killed Severus' favorite woman," Lockhart explained for him.

"Why!" Ginny and Hermione asked in surprise. "Who is it?"

"Mind your business!" Snape suddenly became furious. "Gidro, if you dare to say one more nonsense, I can guarantee that you will not be able to have a married life with your little wife after your resurrection!"

"Okay, I won't say more, I promise!" Lockhart said quickly, even if Snape didn't ask, he wouldn't talk nonsense, Snape liked Harry's mother... which would make them It will be difficult to get along in the future. "Come on, Severus, I'm up to you."

Snape glared at him and left the room of requests angrily.

"He won't go to his master to tell the truth." Hermione said worriedly, "Maybe he's too embarrassed to turn against you directly, or he's afraid that you have something behind..."

"Don't think about it, my dear, now, go take a shower first." Lockhart comforted softly, "Neither the student nor the professor can go to the bathroom, only the prefect's bathroom, where there are usually no people."

"Um."

"Where is the prefect's bathroom?" Ginny asked curiously. "Can you take me there, I've never been there."
