"Harry, this only shows that Professor Snape did enter that room, but it does not prove that Snape went to steal things." Ivy guided.
"If he wasn't going to steal something, what could he be doing?" Harry was still doubtful.
"Why can't it be about protecting things?" Ivy asked.
"Protect? How is that possible!" Harry didn't want to believe it.
"To put it bluntly, it's just because Professor Snape is not friendly to you, so you psychologically feel that he is not a good person, right?"
In the entire Harry Potter series, his favorite character was Snape, and Ivy admired him very much. Although he was not a good person, he had followed Voldemort to cause trouble in his early years, and he deserved his death.
In fact, in his previous life, there were two groups on the Internet who have been arguing. Some people think that he returned from his lost path, repented, and was willing to sacrifice himself to complete redemption. He is a great figure.
Some people think that Snape is just for Lily and has the courage to love beauty rather than country.
In comparison, Ivey still agrees with the latter. Snape is different from Dumbledore. In Ivey's heart, Dumbledore is a person who is great enough to be a myth, but he is also the kind of person he dislikes the most.
Dumbledore is indeed a selfless leader, but this kind of greatness and selflessness is not for individuals, but for everyone. For Dumbledore, everything can be sacrificed for the entire wizarding world.
Just in line with the saying “Everything is for the greater good”
But Snape was different. He was a selfish person from beginning to end. He gave all his selflessness and conscience to Harry's mother.
Assisting Dumbledore, protecting Harry, undercover Death Eaters, protecting Hogwarts - etc., all of them have nothing to do with returning from the lost and repenting. It is just for one person: Lily Evans
.
The leaked prophecy became a shackles for his life, and he lived in pain and regret his whole life. In order to make up for the guilt in his heart, he gave everything he had.
If Gryffindor represents courage, then no one in the world can represent Gryffindor better than Snape.
As Harry said at the end - "He is the bravest man I have ever met."
Therefore, every time I heard Harry say that Snape was targeting him, Ivy thought about how Snape would treat Harry if he were a woman——
It is estimated that the development of the plot may refer to Yang Buhui in "Eternal Dragon Sword".
"Well, I don't deny that I am biased against him. Maybe as Ivy said, Snape is a protector. But no other suspicious person has been found yet, only he is the most suspicious."
"I do know that a person should have problems," Ivey said with a smile.
"Who?" the trio asked in unison.
"quirrell"
"Professor Quirrell?"
"impossible!"
"He is so cowardly, how is this possible?"
The three people who were shouting obviously didn't believe it.
"Harry, I remember you said that you met Quirrell when you and Hagrid went to Diagon Alley." Ivy ignored the three people's reactions and asked lightly.
"In the Leaky Cauldron, to be precise."
"Where is he going and what is he doing?"
"...You mean - he is the one who broke into Gringotts!" Harry said in shock.
"No, it's just a guess. But compared to Snape who has been staying at Hogwarts, Quirrell, who just came this year, is obviously more suspicious." Ivy shook his head in the negative, and then said, "And there is another reason.
"
"Speak quickly" the three urged
"The night you broke into the three-headed dog's house, Betty and I were outside. We saw Quirrell when we came out," Ivy said slowly.
"What did he do?" Harry seemed worried.
"We met on the third floor. He kept looking around, as if he was looking for something. And he was mumbling something like 'I'll find it,' or something like that. Later, maybe I didn't find anything, so I went to the fourth floor.
Gone." Ivey finished in one breath, letting the three of them digest it slowly.
"Given Quirrell's timid character, I still don't believe it. Snape is more suspicious," Harry said stubbornly.
"Cowardly? You haven't considered that Quirrell is deliberately pretending to show it to everyone." Ivy still wanted to click on him.
"How could someone pretend to look like that!"
Ivy rolled his eyes. Even after he reminded him to this extent, Harry still insisted that there was something wrong with Snape. It can only be said that the child really held a grudge.
"Haha~" Betty was quite happy to see him deflated. Ivy glared at her angrily.
"But Harry, let's not talk about whether it's Quirrell or Snape. What is hidden in that room?" Ron was confused. He skipped the argument and went straight to the point.
"Yes, if you can know what's hidden inside or what its purpose is, maybe you can identify who it is." It was rare for Hermione to stand in the same team as Ron.
"But what's inside?" Harry also wanted to ask.
"Alas~" x3
The trio began to feel melancholy again
"Didn't Hagrid take it out? Didn't you think of going to find him?" Ivey reminded them.
"I've looked for it, but Hagrid doesn't want to tell me." Hermione looked listless.
"If you can't just ask directly, just distract him and talk about something else first. As far as I know, Hagrid is not a tight-lipped guy."
"Good idea!" The three people's eyes regained their brightness.
"Go tonight!" Harry said excitedly
"I said Harry, have you forgotten something?" Ivy asked seriously
"What? Nothing happened."
"F*ck!" Ron suddenly swore, "Harry, you have to go to the competition tomorrow!"
"Damn! Wood also asked me to practice extra tonight. I forgot all about it! Bye - I'm leaving first." Harry jumped up from his seat and ran away, leaving several people looking at each other.
"Shall we eat first?" Ivy asked.
"Yes! Eat." When talking about eating, Ron got excited. "Yes, Ivy." Ron sat next to Ivy and hugged him.
"Last time, do you still have the kind of food you had in the infirmary? It's quite delicious -" he said and smacked his lips in return.
Glancing at Betty, I found that the murderous look was in her eyes again.
"You really don't know how to open the pot." I can only pray for him silently in my heart.
"Hey? Why do I feel cold again?" Ron tightened his robe.
"You are too weak," Hermione mocked.

Early the next morning
In the restaurant, everyone was chatting happily. Everyone was looking forward to a wonderful Quidditch match.
"What's wrong with him?" As soon as Ivy arrived at the restaurant, he found Harry lying listlessly on the table.
"What's wrong? I'm just nervous~" Hermione replied
"Harry, don't be nervous. No one has ever seen you play Quidditch. You will definitely win by surprise." Ron reassured him.
"That's right, you have to eat more now. Competitions are very physically demanding." Hermione also coaxed.
"I'm not hungry~" Still half-dead
"Don't worry, your Quidditch talent is innate." Ivy patted Harry on the shoulder, "I'll go over to eat first," and then walked away.
There is no need to talk too much. When Harry rides the flying broomstick, he will realize that all his previous worries are unnecessary.
Around eleven o'clock at noon, Quidditch pitch
All the teachers and students in the school seemed to be here, and Ivy saw Madam Pomfrey on the commentary stage. That's right, how can there be no medical assistance in a regular game.
In short, the stands were crowded with people. Many students also brought their own binoculars. Although the stands were set up high, it was sometimes difficult to see clearly due to the fierce confrontation.
The strong atmosphere also made Ivy interested. Happiness is contagious. Instead of being with Ron and the others, he and Betty sat in the stands of Hufflepuff.
I saw Ron and Hermione holding a huge, colorful banner in the Gryffindor stand opposite, with a lion's head representing the house painted on it.
"Everyone, welcome to the Quidditch Cup! I am Lee Jordan, the commentator for this game."
"Bah bang bang -" everyone applauded in great displeasure
"Next - our players are invited to enter!" After the words fell, the players from both sides flew into the stadium with roaring cheers.
"Let me welcome the referee Ms. Huo Qi!"
Ms. Huo Qi is the referee. She is holding a broom and is standing in the center of the venue waiting for the players from both sides to take their positions.
"Listen! I want everyone to participate in the game fairly and honestly," she said after the players were in place.
Harry, who was floating in the field, looked around the field. He saw the huge banner in the Gryffindor stands, saw Ivy and Betty waving to him from the Hufflepuff stands, and also saw Dumbledore and Dumbledore smiling at him.
Professor McGonagall's heart also surged, and she suddenly summoned up her courage.
Ms. Huo Qi first let go of the Bludgers and the Golden Snitch, then a whistle blew and she threw the Quaffle high.
