Harry Potter: The Path of Destiny

Chapter 40 Seeking help from Snape

Time passed by, and Nydia was waiting with uneasiness. She didn't know what kind of result she would be waiting for, whether Harry and the others succeeded in guarding the Sorcerer's Stone, or whether Voldemort succeeded in getting it. The Philosopher's Stone then restored its powers.

Nidia looked at Neville, who still had the same expression as when he was about to duel with Harry and the others. His look reminded Nidia that his parents were warriors who died in that battle. Neville always hoped that he could be like him. His parents were so brave, and his performance tonight made Nidia see the shadow of his parents in him, although Nidia had never actually met his parents.

If there hadn't been that war, Neville would have grown up with his parents. If there hadn't been that war, Harry wouldn't have been sent to live with his Muggle aunt and uncle.

Nydia suddenly stood up and walked towards the hole of the portrait, but she was not the one who lifted the spell for Neville. She crossed Neville and got out of the hole. She did not go towards the corridor on the fourth floor, but walked in the opposite direction.

What they were about to face was Voldemort, the man who once caused chaos in the entire magical world. Even if he was seriously injured now, it was still not something they and the first-year kids could handle. What they need is a real magician.

Dumbledore had left in the afternoon, and Nydia saw him going out. So it is unrealistic to expect him to come back immediately. Besides him, if anyone else can deal with Voldemort, she can only think of one person. If it is as she suspected, he is not with Quirrell. Yes, then there is only one explanation for his behavior all the time, which is to stop Quirrell. And soon her suspicion was confirmed.

Snape looked at Nitya who knocked on his office door at this time with great surprise.

"If I don't get a reasonable explanation, Miss Field, then Gryffindor will once again take a huge deduction from that pitiful score."

"I need your help," Nydia said, looking at Snape.

Snape did not speak, but looked at Nydia coldly, thinking about her purpose of coming here.

"It's the Philosopher's Stone." Nydia didn't beat around the bush. The fact that Snape was not in the corridor on the fourth floor at the moment made Nydia certain that he was someone who could be trusted.

"How do you know about the Philosopher's Stone?" Snape's eyes showed surprise, but his expression didn't change much.

"Professor, I don't have time to explain so much to you now. I want to tell you that Quirrell should have passed Lu Wei's guard, and Harry and the others have already stopped him." Now I have to start over to explain that she is How to know this matter is already very difficult, Nidia can only tell the key points directly.

"You... how... Quirrell..." Now Snape could no longer conceal his surprise. He was so surprised that he was speechless for a moment, "How long have they been gone?"

"It's been more than ten minutes, Professor," Nidia thought again, "Maybe more than twenty minutes."

"Damn it, do you think you are a hero? He is just as arrogant as his father." As he said that, Snape had already started to walk out of his office towards the corridor on the fourth floor. "Hurry up and send a letter to Principal Dumbledore explaining the situation and ask him to reply as soon as possible."

Nydia knew that even if she followed Snape, she wouldn't be able to help, and she didn't know how she would feel if she really saw Voldemort. She was not ready to meet him yet. So when Snape asked her to deliver a message to Dumbledore, she immediately agreed without hesitation.

When the owl flew away, Nydia felt much more at ease. Now, she had done everything she could. She wanted to go back to the Gryffindor common room to wait for the result, but in the end Still unable to withstand the torment in his heart, he walked toward the corridor on the fourth floor.

While she was still guessing who she would wait for to come out, she had already met Hermione who was supporting Ron with difficulty. Nidia immediately rushed forward and helped Ron's other side of his body. Has completely lost consciousness.

"What's wrong with Ron? How's Harry?" Nydia asked Hermione.

"He probably just fainted. We need to send him to Madam Pomfrey." Hermione replied, "I don't know how Harry is doing now. Only one person can pass the last level, but Snape He should be able to go over and help Harry. He will definitely have the potion to pass that level. Did you inform him to come over?"

"Yes, after thinking about it for a long time, I still think you need the help of a real wizard." Nidia said.

"How do you know? We all thought that Snape was the one who wanted to steal the Philosopher's Stone. Why do you always believe in him so much." When Snape appeared there, Hermione was very surprised. She realized that they had All the assumptions about Snape were wrong.

"This is a bit long to explain. In fact, it was only at the last moment that I fully confirmed that he was trustworthy." Nydia told Hermione everything she knew and guessed.

"It seems that we really went to see Snape with preconceived prejudices, and Quirrell played the role really well." Hermione said with emotion after hearing this. "I hope Harry will be okay."

Not long after Nydia and Hermione helped Ron to Madam Pomfrey, Snape strode in holding the fainted Harry.

"How is he?" Nydia and Hermione anxiously gathered around Harry to check.

"There doesn't appear to be any injuries on the outside, but the details will only be known after Madam Pomfrey's examination." Snape looked at Harry lying on the hospital bed expressionlessly.

"That...Philosopher's Stone!" Nydia asked Snape.

"He managed to protect it," Snape said.

"That's good." Nidia finally breathed a sigh of relief. "What about Quirrell?"

"I don't know." Snape replied simply. He didn't seem to want to give detailed answers to Nitya.

Nitya didn't ask any more questions. As long as the magic stone was protected, everything else was not important for the time being.

The three of them stood silently beside Harry's hospital bed and watched Madam Pomfrey doing their own examinations on Harry. The door to the ward was opened again, and the dusty Dumbledore walked in.

"How is he?" He came in and after scanning everyone, his eyes rested on Harry.

"It's not a big deal. It's just that the magic power was consumed too much and I'm a little weak. I just need to rest for a while." Madam Pomfrey had just finished the examination.

"Now that it's confirmed that everything is fine, Miss Field and Miss Granger, you should go back and have a good rest." Seeing that Dumbledore had returned, Snape wanted Nydia and the others to leave. He should be reporting tonight's situation to Dumbledore.

Nidia and Hermione also left obediently. Just as they were walking to the door of the ward, Nidia suddenly thought of something and turned back.

"Professor Dumbledore, can I speak to you?"

Dumbledore was obviously a little surprised by Nydia's words. He looked at Snape and said, "Of course it's okay, but it's too late now. You go back and have a good rest. I will inform you tomorrow." ”

After receiving Dumbledore's answer, Nydia nodded and left.
