Luke's first reaction when he heard the news was not surprise but speechlessness, profound speechlessness.
He couldn't figure out how Quirrell and Tom managed such a confidential matter so crudely. The twins knew about this and had guessed it, so if Dumbledore didn't know, Luke would just think it was bullshit.
But even so, Luke will not expose it casually at this time, which is not good for everyone.
Dumbledore wanted to sharpen his knife, Luke wanted to fish in troubled waters. Letting Tom come out like this will be beneficial to everyone.
As for Tom?
emmm...he tried his best.
Luke said with a serious face: "You two, stop paying attention to Professor Quirrell. Although I don't know what he wants to do, Dumbledore should have said the same thing to you last time."
The twins looked at each other and nodded together. Dumbledore also told them last time that they didn't need to pay attention to this matter.
"We didn't deliberately look for it, we just wanted to take the secret passage when we went out. But we happened to see Professor Quirrell coming out of it."
George quickly explained. After all, even after Luke and Dumbledore gave their orders, the two of them still refused to give up, which was a bit ungrateful.
Fred didn't explain, he just looked at Luke's face, his expression was calm, but his eyes were calm. But it's not that simple. On the contrary, it is like the sea that is about to surge. There are no waves on the outside, but there are turbulent waves on the inside.
"I don't mean to blame you, I'm just worried that you two will be noticed by him." Luke sighed softly and explained to them, "You may not take my attitude to heart, but you still need to pay attention to Dumbledore's words. He I have lived for such a long time and get along well with your parents, so I won’t harm you.”
Although George and Fred are naughty, they are also very smart. How could they not understand this? And even Luke's other meanings were not incomprehensible.
"I didn't mean to disbelieve you. It was indeed a coincidence."
Fred also opened his mouth to explain, and he told the truth.
Luke nodded and said nothing more. However, George frowned and thought for a while, but still felt that it was not appropriate: "Luke, do you really don't need to warn the professors? Other professors may not believe what the two of us say, but Professor McGonagall should believe it. .”
"Other professors won't believe it either."
Fred added.
Although the two of them have a reputation for being naughty and mischievous, several professors have been dealing with them for a long time, so they naturally know that they will not joke about this kind of thing.
Unlike Harry and Ron. The twins may seem unreliable, but they are actually very smart and reliable. Harry and Ron tried their best to look reliable, but in the end they were still unreliable.
But when they said this, they all reacted.
"Forget it, I guess you must have an idea." Fred shook his head and said.
Even if others didn't say it, both of them knew that Luke's words in front of several professors would definitely be more effective than their words. In the eyes of some people, Luke is a child, but in the eyes of others, this is the patriarch. Of course not treated like a child.
Of course, well-informed professors will not fail to know that one of the school directors has changed...
So if Luke had to say that, he would weigh a lot more than the two of them.
Since he didn't say it, what's the point of them saying it.
George quickly understood. Although he was still a little confused, he didn't say anything more.
Luke chuckled and said, "Don't worry, I'm measured."
But as soon as he finished speaking, Fred asked strangely: "Luke, Ron and Harry were also looking for ghosts? Did they also find Professor Snape's head?"
Luke was choked again. He didn't know whether it was because George and Fred's information-gathering abilities were too strong, or whether those two people couldn't control their mouths when doing this kind of thing...
"Probably both." Luke thought with some pain, and held his forehead helplessly.
George and Fred looked at Luke's expression and wanted to laugh, but also felt a little ashamed. The person who is embarrassed right now is their biological brother.
After a moment, Luke raised his head and said helplessly: "I know about this. I originally thought that the two of them would be idle and not cause anything to happen. And if I say it, I will definitely not stop, and I will do it again." Complain. It's better to let the two of them mess around on their own, so as not to have excess energy and cause other troubles."
Fred also sighed: "This does seem like something Ron would cause trouble..."
They know best what kind of virtue their brother has.
"It's because you guys are so good that it puts him under a bit of pressure." Luke comforted him with a smile. But he was not lying. He felt that Ron's behavior, especially his tendency to brag and his high self-esteem, were probably due to this reason.
George and Fred looked at each other again, and then both sighed. What can they do...
When Luke saw this, he also smiled. The relationship between the children at Wes's house was really good. Everyone really has each other in their hearts. Even Percy always has family in his heart. But sometimes it goes astray...
"Fred, George, I need you two to do something for me."
Luke suppressed the smile on his face and spoke seriously.
George was a little confused, but Fred had a serious look on his face.
"you say."
"Help me investigate who are very dissatisfied with me now. Mainly check those who are five, six, seven or three years old."
In other grades, he was sure that no one would say anything bad about him when he graduated.
"no problem."
Fred responded simply. This thing itself is not difficult, but it is important. He was very happy to receive this task.
George still couldn't understand it, but he nodded: "Don't worry, it's not a big deal. It's easy to check."
Luke smiled and nodded.
He wouldn't force the twins to do something like this for him. I don't think the twins would like this kind of thing too much. But since Fred is interested, it's better to let him get in touch with him first. Just like Gemma, if he doesn't like it, he should withdraw quickly. Everyone in the province was in an uproar.
Luke is not afraid of enemies, but he is unwilling to inexplicably turn those around him into enemies.
After saying a few more words, the three people separated again. It was not yet time for dinner, so George and Fred decided to make a plan first. The two of them had been playing pranks for so long. Firstly, few people could catch direct evidence. Secondly, if they were caught, they could do so without making people annoying. Solving things under certain circumstances is all due to the habit of planning in advance.
Luke walked towards Snape's office. Today's matter must not be over yet. He knew if something was wrong with Flint, but he still wanted to see what kind of treatment Reich and Nott would get.
Should it be a small punishment but a big punishment, or should one of them be expelled?
But think about it, Hagrid was expelled from school because he kept dangerous magical animals and caused the death of his classmates, and he could later become a gamekeeper. Although Hagrid himself did not cause anyone to die, it can also be seen that the school protects students.
It seems that at most it is a small punishment but a big warning, giving him a lesson and suppressing his arrogance.
Walking to the door of the office, Luke was about to raise his hand to knock on the door when the door opened from the inside.
Flint came out of the door with a disgraced face, but his eyes still lit up the moment he saw Luke.
The look in his eyes startled Luke. I feel a little panicked, you know this is a place where you have to be educated...
"Luke, are you here too?"
Flint said with some surprise.
But before Luke responded, he heard the deep and angry voice inside.
"Come in!"
Luke's mouth twitched. Flint shook his head and said softly: "Be careful, it's just a harsh scolding, don't get angry..."
As he spoke, he gave Luke a meaningful look.
Luke could see the advice in his eyes. It probably means that the future is long and there is no rush.
Luke was a little surprised at Flint's wit, but he still nodded: "I know."
With that said, he walked into the office.
Flint looked at his back and wanted to say a few more words, but when he raised his head, he met Snape's warning eyes. So he could only shrink his neck and retreat like a frightened quail, and also closed the office door.
Seeing the annoying Flint disappear, Snape focused his attention on the new Luke again. That look was far from friendly.
And Luke could see that the anger on the court before was indeed an act, but the unkindness at this moment was not fake at all.
So Luke also stopped joking. His relationship with Snape was not to that extent, and it was impossible for him to be lectured like in front of Professor McGonagall. Moreover, Snape, who was already a double agent, could not be bribed, but he had to find another opportunity.
So now, Luke is not in the mood to have sex with this lover. Fortunately, after he said something inappropriate to him last time and let it slip, he would not easily come to trouble Luke.
At this time, Nott lowered his head, his face was extremely ugly, his fists were clenched, his joints were white, and his body was trembling slightly, but he did not dare to break out.
As a potion master and the headmaster of Slytherin, even Old Nott would not show off in front of Snape. Even if he looked down upon Snape's mixed-race background. But this kind of thing cannot be brought to light now.
He was like this, not to mention the ardent advocate of pure bloodism, Morton Leitch.
But when Luke took a look, Morton Leitch didn't react at all. Not only was he not annoyed, but he also felt a little shivering. Luke turned on his ability and took another look. Sure enough, most of the color represented timidity, and only a little bit of anger.
The emotional backlash has arrived.
Luke's expression was normal, but he was a little worried in his heart. If something was wrong with this guy, even if no evidence could be produced, he would still be the one suspected.
If there are some inheritances that do not belong to him, but he can still tell others, then the talent of emotional control, which will be the foundation of his future, is something he is absolutely unwilling to expose easily.
While Luke was sizing up Ritchie, Snape was also observing Luke. He was deeply wary of the look that seemed to be seen through him on the playground today.
It felt a lot like being Legiliminated, but it wasn't exactly the same. Very slight, very inconspicuous. If he hadn't let go of his vigilance in this regard, and it was many times higher than normal people, I'm afraid he wouldn't have noticed it.
"Mr. Leitch's thunderbolt explosion is really skillful. You have been practicing hard and waiting for today, right? Come, let me see your powerful magic spell that everyone talks about. Be bold, just like on the court. "

Snape said in a tone that was almost provocative and mocking to Leitch who lowered his head and did not dare to speak.
Lei Qi just kept his head silent and his eyes seemed to be filled with water.
Snape frowned, feeling something was wrong, but he also felt that he was overthinking. After all, although Morton Leitch usually seems arrogant and bold, no one knows what kind of gesture he will make until the situation comes to an end.
He had seen many people who looked tough on the surface, but turned into weaklings when faced with life and death. He had seen many people when he was a Death Eater.
So I didn't take it too seriously.
Then, he shifted his gaze to Luke, with a sneer on his lips.
"What? Master Gunter, are you planning to teach me how to deal with disobedient students? Or are you asking for mercy, giving yourself a reputation of being tolerant and generous, and winning people's hearts by the way?"
Luke had no interest in paying attention to his sarcasm. The sarcasm was neither painful nor unpleasant, let alone a quarrel: "I've had an argument once, and I have no interest in arguing with you again, Professor. But it's true. Let me ask you what you plan to do with these two people."
As he said that, Luke glanced at the two people beside him who looked at him at the same time.
"After all, one slanders me and the other involves me. Let's see if your punishment today is in place. If it is, I won't say anything. If not, I will take revenge myself."
That's what Luke said, but neither Snape nor Nott believed it.
If this was really the plan, it would be unnecessary to come in and ask. The punishments here are not hidden from outside students, and they will naturally have answers after a while.
When I say this now, I'm afraid it means less about asking and more about putting pressure...
Nott looked at Luke with a bit of hatred in his eyes. He hated Luke for adding insult to injury.
As for him setting up Luke, what's wrong with that? The level is just to make Luke lose face, but he won't be punished.
The more he thought about it, the more evil he looked at Luke.
Reach looked at Luke, and apart from tears, his eyes were full of grievance, fear, worry, and timidity.
Luke didn't dare to look at her... she looked like a resentful woman.
So he and Snape looked at each other again, refusing to give in.
But this time, Snape didn't feel that sense of being seen through again.
He frowned.
Is it my own illusion?
