Raven's Claw at Hogwarts - Chapter 635
c633 Conversation with Harry
Seeing Mike sitting contentedly at the dining table, Snape was almost going crazy.
But he couldn’t do anything about it. After all, even in his heyday, he couldn’t do anything to Mike, let alone now.
Moreover, strictly speaking, Mike is the owner here. If he wants to come for a meal, no one can say no.
Now all he could do was stand in front of Harry like an old hen guarding her chicks when faced with an eagle.
As for Snape’s actions, Mike didn’t take it to heart at all.
He just sat quietly, waiting for Ms. Kate to bring his share of dinner.
Unfortunately, he had been in meetings with those damn politicians all afternoon, and he was already hungry.
Fortunately, Ms. Kate was very fast, and when she prepared dinner for Snape and the others, she prepared more because she was afraid of not having enough ingredients. So in a short time, Ms. Kate appeared again with a buttered potato roast steak. In the restaurant.
Looking at the steak that was still sizzling on the stone dinner plate, Mike couldn’t help but swallow. Ms. Kate had just put down the dinner plate, and he couldn’t wait to help Mike cut the steak. He stretched out his knife and fork and began to enjoy.
Ms. Kate was startled by Mike’s eagerness, but she quickly smiled and brought a glass of ice water from behind when she saw that Mike ate so quickly.
After consuming a whole piece of T-bone steak and the potato side dishes for decoration with ice water, Mike finally felt a sense of fullness. He put down his knife and fork and leaned back on the chair. , exhaled a sigh of contentment.
“Your craftsmanship really amazes me!”
“Thank you, Mr. Mike Townley!” Ms. Kate clasped her hand and said excitedly, “It’s my honor to serve you! You are our great benefactor to the Squib! Without you, I might still be here now. I’m working in a restaurant for ordinary people!”
The smile on Mike’s face became even brighter when he heard that Ms. Kate did not use the word Muggle to refer to ordinary people.
His belief changed and he spoke again:
“It’s a pity that someone with your skills is left here to take care of a guy with such a bad personality like Mr. Snape. I wonder if you are interested in being my full-time cook? You know, I was originally raised by house elves. But as the business of Los Santos Group has increased day by day, their main task now has become to help me manage my assets, and it is difficult to find time to take care of my daily life.”
Upon hearing this, Ms. Kate was stunned, and her whole body was trembling as if she was stunned by this huge surprise.
Harry, who was hidden behind Snape, looked surprised.
He agreed very much with what Mike said. A middle-aged man with a bad personality like Snape was indeed not worthy of Ms. Kate’s care. Moreover, if Ms. Kate could become Mike’s cook, there would be a qualitative leap in salary and benefits!
This is obviously a great thing!
Unfortunately, apparently some people don’t think so.
“I disagree!”
As a roar like a roaring lion came from Snape’s mouth, the eyes of the other three people at the scene were all focused on him.
At this moment, Snape seemed to be a little out of control. His body was shaking harder than Ms. Kate, and the pair of eyes that should have been empty and deep like a deep pool were even more bloodshot!
“I absolutely disagree!”
After noticing that everyone else was looking at him, Snape seemed to emphasize what he meant and repeated what he just said.
This made Mike start to look at Ms. Kate and Snape.
To be honest, although Ms. Kate is a bit older, she is definitely a beauty.
Although the slightly plump figure doesn’t quite fit Mike’s taste, it can still be regarded as bulging forward and backward, and her figure explodes.
It is reasonable for a normal man to be with such a charming beauty every day, and some stories will happen.
Thinking of this, Mike looked at Snape with a playful look, and he suddenly felt evil in his heart and teased Snape:
“Oh? Professor Snape, do you disagree with me transferring Ms. Kate, or do you disagree with my evaluation of your character just now?”
“Of course it’s character!” Snape replied stiffly, “At the same time, I don’t agree with you transferring Kate!”
“Oh! But I heard that you guys don’t get along well, right?”
“This this……”
Seeing Snape speechless, Mike smiled, then turned his head and asked:
“So Ms. Kate, what do you mean? I am still very open-minded. As long as you are willing, I can agree to it, whether it is a job transfer or other matters.”
After saying this, Mike winked at Ms. Kate, and the teasing meaning in his words was already obvious.
Kate obviously heard it. Hearing this, she showed a rare appearance of a little girl. She lowered her head and rubbed her hands. After a long time, she said slowly in a thin voice:
“I…I still think it’s better here.”
“Very good, then as you wish!”
Mike patted his thigh and said. After saying this, he and Harry looked at each other and smiled. They both saw that there was a story between the two.
Kate and Snape obviously didn’t realize this, and both of them breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this.
After laughing for a while, Mike finally decided not to dwell on this topic anymore.
He sighed and said:
“Okay, Ms. Kate, Professor Snape. I still have some things that I need to talk to Harry about alone. I think you should avoid it.”
“No! I must be there!”
Snape suddenly became excited again. In his opinion, Mac coming to Harry would not do anything good.
But Harry didn’t think much of it. Seeing this, Kate hurriedly stepped forward to dissuade him, and finally half-pushed Snape upstairs.
Looking at Ms. Kate’s figure that easily lifted Snape into the air, Mike exclaimed:
“Wow! I didn’t expect Ms. Kate to be so strong!”
“Yeah.” Harry said with a smile, “I was shocked when I first found out.”
Mike smiled and shook his head, then stretched out his wand and cast a silent spell.
As the translucent lightsha gradually covered the two of them, Mike sighed and said:
“Harry, I told you everything about what happened on my side when we were on the Holy Mountain, but I still know nothing about what happened on your side. Of course, I’m not blaming you for what happened on your side. I’m hiding it, because you and I both know how urgent the situation was at that time, and it’s not easy to sit down and talk things through. But now, we have enough time. So I thought… maybe you have something You want to tell me things.”
Mike’s tone was soft and he chose his words carefully, as if he was afraid of irritating Harry again.
This moved Harry very much. When he thought about it carefully, Mike was really kind to him. Even if he did such an outrageous thing, Mike didn’t mean to blame him.
Harry finally nodded, placed the still-broken Death Cloak on the table, and told him everything Dumbledore told him and how the Death Cloak bewitched him.
After telling everything, Harry felt much more relaxed. He let out a long breath and leaned back on the soft chair.
But looking at Mike sitting across from him with a serious expression, Harry’s heart suddenly lifted again.
Mike had remained silent when he spoke before, and he remained silent until now.
This made Harry start thinking wildly involuntarily.
What if Mike won’t forgive him?
What if Mike decided he was too dangerous and wanted to lock him up here forever?
What if he couldn’t go back to Hogwarts?
What if he couldn’t see Sirius and Ron again?
…
For a time, various thoughts kept popping up in Harry’s heart, and he became panicked.
This was something very wrong. After all, Harry had been mentally prepared to accept any punishment before Mike came, but when things came to pass, he found that he was still too naive.
At this time, Mike finally finished thinking.
He reached out and touched the death cloak on the table and said:
“So, Death’s Cloak is conscious. It is he who has bewitched you and asked you to collect the Deathly Hallows. It is said that after collecting three Deathly Hallows, you can summon an ancient god similar to Pandora’s Box, thus getting an A chance to make a wish, right?”
Harry pursed his lips and nodded, and Mike lowered his head again.
This is not the first time he has heard the term ancient god. Zhou Hong has mentioned this before. However, compared to Death Cloak’s yearning for ancient gods, Zhou Hong is very resistant to it, and even It can be called fear.
As for who is right and who is wrong between the two arguments, Mike really can’t tell, and he doesn’t want to tell.
After all, it makes no sense. He is very satisfied with his current life. Unless the world is about to perish, there is no need for him to make a wish.
Mike touched his chin and thought, but in the next moment, he thought of another thing Harry said.
Suddenly his expression changed drastically, and the hand that was holding the Death’s cloak tightened.
“The last long-eared elf who appeared at that time was called Alicia, right? He also carried something similar to a virus, which would make the terrifying plants that even the flames of the curse and the fire of the sun unable to completely burn out. The spread of restrictions?”
“Yes.”
“The guy who calls himself Death Cloak said Alicia was imprisoned in the Holy Mountain and can’t get out, right?”
“Yeah, that’s what he said then.”
“But what if he comes out?”
The expression on Harry’s face was stunned when he heard this, and then he said anxiously:
“This is impossible! He promised me…”
“But he also deceived you, didn’t he? Can you really guarantee that what he said is true?” Mike interrupted, “Think about it carefully, how did you let Alicia out in the first place? Is it with the help of the power of a reality warper? Then have you ever thought that since the reality warper can directly modify and distort the existing reality from the level of world rules, and thus help Alicia escape from prison. Then she Why can’t we break through the space and help Alicia escape from prison again?”
Harry’s body began to tremble violently, because he realized that what Mike said could really happen.
After all, they didn’t take Pan with them when they escaped. At that time, he thought that Pan had already been killed by Alicia, but now that he thought about it, the probability of Pan being captured was quite high!
That means Alicia will really come to the main world?
The hairs all over Harry’s body stood on end.
As a witness to the whole thing, Harry’s fear of Alicia was simply engraved in his bones.
If the opponent’s heaven-destroying power really acts on the main world, then by then, everything he cherishes will be buried deep under the roots and slowly rot, turning into green nutrients.
Knowing that he might have made a big mistake, Harry clenched his fists and said with difficulty in a tone that was almost crying:
“sorry!”
There was a silence in response to him, which also caused Harry’s already lowered head to be pressed even lower.
Seeing his appearance, Mike finally relented and sighed:
“So, it’s still a matter of communication, isn’t it? I mean, if you could have discussed it with me earlier, maybe the things that happened later wouldn’t have happened.”
“Yes, it is.”
Harry stammered, and upon seeing this, Mike shook his head and said:
“You don’t have to be like this, Harry, do you remember what I always told you at Hogwarts? We are friends. There is nothing that cannot be said between friends, and I will not be too harsh on my friends.”
Hearing this, Harry’s somewhat dilated pupils solidified a little, and he asked tentatively:
“So…you don’t blame me?”
“I think I’ve made my point clear. Of course I’m not surprised!”
“Then can I go back to Hogwarts and continue studying?”
Harry’s eyes grew brighter and brighter.
Mike raised his eyebrows and said:
“Emm, regarding this point, my answer is… YES!” Facing Harry’s expectant gaze, Mike said, “But after you go back, you can’t be as perfunctory about your studies as before, you know that you are no longer You’re a junior again. Besides, you’ve missed too many classes this semester, and I can’t guarantee that Professor Flitwick won’t put you in solitary confinement!”
“Confinement? Oh! God! I want to be detained so much! As long as I can go back to Hogwarts, even if I am detained for a whole year!” Harry jumped up from his chair and cheered. Said, “I can’t wait to go back! Oh! I really miss my bed. Without it, I can’t sleep well these days! And the breakfast at Hogwarts! Do you know Mike? , when I was at Hogwarts, I always thought it was the most unpalatable thing in the world, but now, even if twenty owls poop on it, I can still eat it without changing my expression!”
“Wow! This is so disgusting! I just finished my steak!”
