The Little Superman of Hogwarts

Kree walked towards Snape's office. Although it was Sunday, Snape would definitely be in his cramped little room, because the only joy for an older single man is watching the renovation of hooves, donkey hooves, excavators, and old parts... Ahem... Wrong set, scratch that!

For a single man like Snape, his greatest interest is probably throwing himself into his work. Since he's so indifferent to teaching, he must be extremely enthusiastic about potions.

With this guess, it's perfectly normal for him to be in his little house researching his potions on a Sunday.

"Knock, knock, knock..." Kree gently knocked on the small door of Snape's office.

A few minutes later, Snape opened the door with a sullen face: "You better have a real emergency, otherwise I'll deduct 30 points from Gryffindor!"

"Mr. Snape, I just suddenly had an idea that might be helpful for learning, so I came here specifically to ask for your opinion," Kree said pretentiously.

"What is it?" Snape's face was very bad. He knew that Kree was cunning and sly, and what he said must have a hidden meaning.

"I suddenly had an idea for resurrecting the deceased. It's a guess I made by combining some Muggle knowledge. I don't know if it's possible, so I came here specifically to ask you, my professor!" Kree said slowly.

"Resurrecting the deceased?" Snape looked at Kree suspiciously, then suddenly his heart moved, and he turned around and let Kree into the house.

Kree smiled—as expected!

Harry's mother, Lily, was Snape's only weakness and his biggest flaw. Snape's only purpose in his life was to atone for the past, including Lily's death!

If there was a way to completely resurrect a person, even if it was just an unreliable guess, it would arouse Snape's interest—he would never give up any hope!

Snape's house was very large, but it was filled with several huge medicine cabinets, with all kinds of bottles and jars on them, making the house cramped and dark. Kree sat opposite Snape, and the two looked at each other face to face.

"When I was studying Transfiguration, I deduced a conclusion from the five major Transfiguration prohibitions—it is impossible to permanently resurrect a person, because magic does not support this kind of operation. But I finally thought, if we cannot resurrect them 【permanently】, then would magic support a 【limited time】 resurrection?

As you know, I'm talking about the real resurrection, a living person, not a phantom or using Horcruxes, which are low-level methods..."

Snape's heart suddenly moved, and his expression was even a little annoyed: "How would you know about Horcruxes? This is not content that a first-year student should be exposed to!"

"Of course, I read it in books." Kree continued: "Horcruxes sever a person's soul. It seems like they are resurrecting a person—in reality, they are purely splitting and multiplying—like lower plants, such as cacti, or lower animals like paramecium."

Snape looked at Kree with a serious and thoughtful expression: "It seems that your research on Horcruxes is more in-depth than I thought!"

"The resurrection I'm talking about is a real resurrection. What is resurrected is a living person, a real human being!" Kree then stood up from the stool and said: "I suddenly had an idea. Since it is impossible to completely resurrect a person, is it possible for us to resurrect a person 【partially】?"

"For example, only resurrecting their body and not their soul, or only resurrecting their soul and not their body?" As Kree said this, he walked to the small blackboard and picked up a chalk to draw two patterns, one was the outline of a body, and the other was an outline drawn with dotted lines. Kree wrote below them respectively: Body, Soul.

"The dotted line represents the soul, and the solid line represents the body." Kree said: "But soon I used mathematical calculations to find that if a person's soul is completely resurrected, then the energy consumed is almost positive infinity. Therefore, completely resurrecting the soul is also impossible!"

"At this point, things become clear.

If the human body is composed of various independent organs such as hands, feet, body, and head, then what about the soul? Is the soul also independent?

According to some philosophical viewpoints, the human soul is actually only composed of two parts, one is memory, and the other is something called 【personality】 formed based on their memory."

"I immediately thought, if we don't even resurrect the memory, but only resurrect their 【personality】, that is, their behavior habits and style of doing things, then is there a possibility that this little bit of soul can be resurrected—I mean a real resurrection!"

Kree used the blackboard eraser to cut off the body part of the dotted person, leaving only a dotted outline of the head.

"So I thought of a technology in the Muggle world—【clone clone】!" Kree turned around and wrote these capital letters on the blackboard: C - L - O - N - E.

"This word comes from ancient Greek and originally means copy. As the name suggests, the so-called cloning is actually 【copying】! Just like the original meaning of the word, the clone will look exactly like the original body. They can even directly replace any organ of the body with each other at any time without dying!

I thought at the time, if you clone a person's body and then inject the memory into this body—then isn't it equivalent to us actually performing a 【partial resurrection】 operation on him?"

"We didn't perform a real resurrection, and we didn't violate the inviolable principle of magic..." Kree then leaned a little closer and said to Snape in a bewitching tone: "From a technical point of view, this kind of operation is possible, as long as we get their DNA, and then find a way to get memory or personality fragments—then isn't it equivalent to us carrying out a successful resurrection?"

Snape was almost frozen in place, staring motionless at the word on the blackboard—【clone】.

Seeing that Snape had already fallen into the trap, Kree stopped talking and waited for Snape to recover from the shock.

"What does DNA mean?" Snape suddenly asked.

"Deoxyribonucleic acid, this is an abbreviation. They are a kind of genetic material that exists in all locations of our body. With the existence of DNA, offspring can obtain the same traits as their parents, including appearance, organ abilities, etc. You can use a microscope to observe the cells of eukaryotic organisms yourself, and there is DNA inside!"

At this moment, Snape's heart was like a doe rushing in… thumping non-stop!
