Hogwarts: A Chinese-Style Professor

Chapter 113 So Tired—Being a Spy is So Tiring
Hermione's results are in.

【35 seconds】

She was ten seconds slower than Harry—and seemed somewhat dissatisfied.

But this did not diminish the fact that her brilliant performance also won cheers from the entire audience, especially the Gryffindor students.

As for the Slytherins—each of them wore a disdainful smile.

Clearly, they had developed a misconception—that the assessment was actually quite easy, and that it was only because Weasley, the first contestant, performed so poorly that they had the illusion that the assessment was difficult.

However, the students who took the stage one after another quickly shattered their naive ideas.

【1分03秒】【1分35秒】【1分56秒】.一个又一个成绩全新出炉，可却始终达不到赫敏和哈利的高度，哪怕是三年级的学生也是如此。

However, the fourth-year students redeemed themselves a little – each of them finished in under 30 seconds, with Cedric, a fourth-year student from Hufflepuff, completing the test in just ten seconds.

No obstacle could trouble him for even a second.

His swings were swift and resolute, and he bravely chose to cast six of the nine spells silently—it was undoubtedly a display of skill.

Only through rigorous practice can one reach this level!
Li Wei immediately stood up and applauded Cedric enthusiastically, making no attempt to hide his admiration for him.

Ever since Levy asked that question, Snape has fallen silent again.

Li Wei ignored him and continued with the assessment.

Snape, on the other hand, had completely fallen into a state of gloom and despair.

Sometimes, he really envied Li Wei—the other party clearly had such great strength, yet he knew nothing about it.

That's right, I know nothing about it.

He had absolutely no idea what was truly terrifying about the magical world, or what was going to happen in the future.

Dumbledore couldn't possibly tell him that.

After all, this was no small matter. Only by swearing an oath with his own life to plead with Dumbledore did he gain Dumbledore's trust and gradually learn many of the Dark Lord's secrets.

For example, on that night when Potter was known as "the boy who lived," the Dark Lord did not actually die!
According to Dumbledore, the Dark Lord's soul is not completely shattered, which means that he could return at any time with the help of a Death Eater!
And what about Li Wei? He had already stepped into the legendary realm, yet he still lived each day without realizing it—even though he possessed the strength of a legendary wizard, he was still a fool.

Snape couldn't help but think this maliciously.

Without him, Li Wei would have been murdered by the Dark Lord shortly after his return—even if he had stayed hidden inside Hogwarts Castle.

So how could I possibly relax and relieve the pressure?
Not only could he not relax, but he also had to constantly remind himself that he must learn more advanced lying techniques and further master the secrets of the brain-closing technique.

No one can hide their secrets from the Dark Lord—except him!

Thinking about this, Snape suddenly found everything before him utterly boring.

He had never seen a club admit a hundred new members at once, and they were all students—not even the best seventh graders.

What's the point of raising so many idiots?
No—it all means nothing.

Even if you become as good as Horace Slughorn and create a second Slug Club, what good will it do?

In the face of the Dark Lord's terror, nothing else matters.

Snape leaned back in his wicker chair and slowly closed his eyes—all sounds were shut out, leaving only the quiet of his mind gradually settling down.

He is too tired.

No one could understand the pressure he was under—perhaps Dumbledore would, but the other side would never allow him to give up his identity as a spy.

Once the Dark Lord returns, his status at Hogwarts might change—perhaps everyone present will look at him with fear—but then, he'll probably have a title even worse than "stinky bat."

traitor.

Thinking of this, Snape slowly opened his eyes again and looked at Potter in the waiting area. Potter was extremely proud of his achievement, and he couldn't hide the smile on his face—he was also a fool who didn't know how to hide his emotions.

But his eyes
Li Wei did say something sensible just now.

The eyes of this ridiculous savior are indeed as beautiful as his mother's.

Snape stared intently into Harry's bright, lively eyes—like a freshly touched emerald lake, vivid and clear. He had even inherited the shape of his eyes perfectly from his mother.

As long as the owner of these eyes is still alive in this world, I'll let him do whatever he wants.

"Snape, your favorite student Malfoy has arrived! Aren't you going to take a look?"

Snape opened his eyes in disgust.

"Can't you just give me a quarter of an hour of peace?"

"What, aren't you interested in Malfoy's performance? To be honest, I'm quite curious."

Li Wei looked at Malfoy, whose blond hair and confident face radiated confidence.

Why do you have such a high opinion of a narrow-minded student like Malfoy?

Snape's eyes sharpened again.

Now it's not just him who's being slandered, but even the students he favors are being slandered?

"I think you are the one who is narrow-minded."

Snape retorted without hesitation.

"You might think that Draco is a self-important fool who only revels in the glory brought by his family name?"

"While it's not as bad as you say—I think he's just incompetent compared to you."

Snape wasn't provoked this time; it seems he's become somewhat more tolerant of Levi.

"Fluorescent flashing—fluorescent flashing—!"

Malfoy's somewhat exasperated voice came from the assessment platform.

Completely different from his expectations, he spent eight seconds on the first challenge.

"Draco's performance may indeed be unsatisfactory at the moment."

Snape's voice carried a hint of hesitation.

"But his true nature is better than you think. You are just prejudiced against him because he is actively upholding the honor of purebloods."

In fact, this child is a true Slytherin; he can do almost anything you ask him to do—regardless of the purpose or the means.

"That sounds pretty impressive."

Li Wei nodded, wondering if he should try to remotely control Malfoy later—he should listen to him then.

"So, the problem lies with you as the teacher because his skill level is lacking?"

Li Wei hadn't forgotten how Snape had taught Malfoy the "Oolong Out of the Cave" trick.

Although it was meant to annoy Harry, this action also demonstrates to some extent his high regard for Malfoy.

"I'll poison your voice sooner or later—you'd better watch what you eat from now on."

"Understood, Potions Master."
