Hogwarts: The Unscientific Wizard (TL)

"Okay..."

Andy answered, then suddenly remembered something and asked, "Professor, it seems that the day of the execution was Friday, October 8th... You should have class that day, right?"

"How are you going to act?"

Snape didn't say anything; he just gave Andy a sinister look, as if everything could be understood without words.

Andy: "..."

Time-Turner!!!

Fuck you, old man!

Andy cursed in his heart.

I've fallen into the trap, and I even walked right into it. It's like someone sold me out, and I'm still helping them count the money.

No wonder. That day when I went to the Headmaster's office, I clearly volunteered to wait outside for a while, but Dumbledore didn't care at all, and instead, he let me sit in on the meeting.

So that's what he was hoping for!

Andy didn't realise it at the time, and he didn't really care about it afterwards.

But now that he thinks about it, what does it have to do with him if Snape is going to rescue Peter Pettigrew?

But if Snape needs to use the Time-Turner, then the only person who can help him is Andy, so Andy must be told about this matter.

Originally, this was a good way to do a favour... As long as Andy waits patiently for a few more days, Dumbledore and Snape will sooner or later come to Andy on their own initiative to borrow the Time-Turner.

But now...

Andy has delivered himself on a plate!

Toothache!

Headache!

Snape kept stirring the cauldron without a sound and silently added a point to Dumbledore's score on his mental scoreboard—the encounter between the two Hogwarts bosses was currently a draw.

As for when the last encounter was—of course, it was Andy's infiltration of the Department of Mysteries.

Snape had been able to participate in that encounter from beginning to end.

After the Ministry of Magic was invaded, Dumbledore naturally turned to Snape first to find out about Voldemort's movements. However, Snape knew Voldemort was not involved in the Ministry of Magic infiltration.

Voldemort didn't have the ability or the motive to do so.

Dumbledore pondered this for a whole night, and after learning some specific information, he immediately suspected Andy.

Andy possessed both the ability and the motivation—he was hungry for the knowledge that the Department of Mysteries could provide.

It was at this time that Andy also approached Snape and proposed a deal with him.

Snape was thinking at the time that Dumbledore was quite perceptive. It was really Andy who had infiltrated the Ministry of Magic.

So when Andy proposed to make an unbreakable oath with Snape, Snape did not resist too much. Because for Snape, no matter if he said it or not, Dumbledore would discover Andy's secret sooner or later.

Because he had already begun to suspect Andy.

But after the start of the school year, Dumbledore immediately changed his mind—he felt that he should not suspect Andy.

It was so fast that it caught him off guard.

Snape was completely flabbergasted!

But Dumbledore had a very good reason—the person who infiltrated the Department of Mysteries had been to the Time Room, and if Andy had done it, he could have easily taken a Time-Turner.

But Andy had signed up for all the elective classes to get the Time-Turner.

That was completely out of character!

Andy was only interested in power.

Courses like Muggle Studies and Care of Magical Creatures would not normally have even caught Andy's eye.

This was really well-thought-out and no one could argue with it.

Snape had already scored Andy in his mental scoreboard.

Brilliant!

He deliberately went to the Time Room but ended up not taking anything. Instead, after the start of the school year, he signed up for all the elective courses, thereby proving that he needed the Time-Turner.

As it turned out, Andy's plan was a success.

Dumbledore immediately lifted his suspicions against Andy and instead felt guilty for having doubted Andy.

Snape thought to himself, Dumbledore is really senile.

But in this encounter...

Andy sold himself out!

'Ssshh...'

Andy really did have a toothache now.

Although he had long since learnt that Dumbledore's most effective strategy was to let things take their natural course—he would lay things out in front of you in the most obvious way, and all you had to do was follow your own instincts, and Dumbledore would achieve his goal.

But even if you knew this, it was really hard to guard against such things.

After all...Andy really did make this decision according to his own instincts.

With his strength having increased, he wanted to find someone to fight with to prove his strength...that was normal, wasn't it?

This is a common practice in novels.

"Collins... Dumbledore said a long time ago that you need an opponent," Snape said suddenly.

Andy: "..."

Okay!

Andy felt that it was no longer the time to dwell on such things. Since someone had been scheming, then he would find a way to strike back.

Without disrupting the overall plan, he would find a way to make Dumbledore suffer another loss.

He would then regain the upper hand in terms of intelligence.

"Professor, then it's settled."

Andy smiled and said, "Don't forget to let me know the day before the operation."

Snape continued to stir the cauldron and then threw something that looked disgusting and smelled foul into it.

"...Professor, why don't you just pee in it?" Andy's mouth twitched slightly.

In the future...definitely, definitely, I won't drink the potion that Snape brews.

It's disgusting!

Snape looked up at Andy.

Peeing...not a bad idea, as long as there's a way to neutralise the urine's properties.

But I can't do it in front of the students.

Andy shrugged, "Professor, I'll be going then."

After saying that, Andy waved his hand and turned around to leave Snape's office.

When rescuing Peter Pettigrew, a battle is inevitable.

Fudge was in a terrible situation. He had been trumpeting Peter's crimes to salvage his image and was planning to gather journalists to report on the execution.

So there would definitely be many Aurors and Hit Wizards at the scene on the day of the execution.

Andy didn't know what Snape had planned, but if they tried to rush into the execution site—even if Andy and Snape worked together—they would probably not return.

'We need to do something.'

Andy felt that he should prepare an illegal Portkey in advance.

A Portkey was much better than an Apparition spell.

Not only could one travel a long distance, but the opponent could not come after you using the 'Side-Along Apparition' spell or other tracking spells, and they could not even locate you using magic.

Once you used it, you would basically be safe.

With these thoughts in mind, Andy returned to his dormitory.

Now it was time to wash up and go to bed!
