Eh?

Kate was taken aback again, and before she could refuse, Catherine seemed to sense what was in her heart, and immediately got up and left without even a chance for her to speak.

"So..." She stood up slowly, looking at the things on the ground around her, "Are we treated as cheap labor?"

Why doesn't this professor play his cards according to the routine!

Hermione at the side couldn't help laughing when she heard her loveless voice, "Actually, if you're with Kate, cleaning is also a joyful thing."

Indeed, from a scientific point of view, cleaning when people are depressed can make them feel better.

But this is not their room, and this is the magic world, what science is there!

Kate sighed speechlessly, pulled out her wand and said, "Let's clean this place within 10 minutes."

Then you have to run away before Catherine comes back!

It has to be said that with the blessing of magic, cleaning a not-so-big office is easy and comfortable.

After a while, the room that was still in a mess was cleaned up.

Kate wanted to pull Hermione away, but when she turned her head, she saw that she was holding the photo frame on the desk, staring at the photo curiously.

She leaned over to take a look, and saw that in the photo in the frame, there were two young girls with long black hair and very beautiful.

One of the girls smiled very happily, her mouth was grinning, and her eyes were almost narrowed.

And the other one looks much more elegant, with a faint smile, and the eyes seem to be shining with gentle light.

To Kate's amazement, these two girls were the ones she had seen the other day when she practiced Occlumency.

Is this...her mother?

Subconsciously stroking that gentle face with her fingers, Kate couldn't help but raise the corners of her lips, and when she raised her eyes, she saw Hermione's puzzled face.

"Kate, you are..."

For some reason, she stared at Kate who was showing a gentle smile unconsciously.

This was the first time she saw Kate showing such an expression, and even smiling at a photo like this.

"Ah! This is me..." Kate was brought back to her senses by her confused eyes, and quickly put down the photo frame, "I just saw it was a little dirty, just wipe it off!"

It is not yet determined whether Catherine is her aunt, and Kate can only use this clumsy lie to cover it up.

Hermione frowned rather strangely.

She and Kate have been childhood sweethearts since they were young, so how can they not see each other's panic at the moment.

But she just didn't understand, it's just a photo of the professor and others, why panic?

His eyes once again fell on the girl smiling gently in the photo.

Could it be... Kate likes this type?

Hermione felt that her mood suddenly became complicated.

"Hey, now that we're done cleaning, let's go quickly," Kate coughed lightly and changed the subject, "Otherwise, the professor may ask us to do chores again when he comes back."

With that said, he pulled Hermione and quickly slipped out.

After a long time, Catherine came in from the outside, and at a glance, she saw the photo frame that had been erected on the desk.

"Sister," she walked over to pick up the photo frame, her eyes became gentle, "The child should have seen you, right?"

Raising her hand to take off her glasses, Catherine raised her hair casually, tilted her head to look at the woman in the photo, her eyes were far away, as if she was looking at someone in her memory through the photo.

……

After bidding farewell to Hermione and returning to the Slytherin lounge, Kate was startled by the low air pressure inside.

Hiss... It seems that she came back at the wrong time.

Subconsciously, he wanted to pretend that nothing had happened and exit, when he heard Snape's angry voice from inside: "Safik, why don't you come in soon?"

Oh, I was caught.

Kate's heart tightened, and then she had the courage to go in, and saw that there were already a crowd of people standing in the middle of the lounge with their heads bowed.

In front of them, Snape was standing there aggressively, and beside him was Malfoy who also lowered his head.

Kate walked to Snape with a wooden face: "Good afternoon, Dean."

"I'm fine." Snape turned around, his voice dark and mean, "It seems that Miss Sapphire is having a good time and is in the mood to go out for a stroll."

Kate suspected that he was going to scold her for being a monster brain in the next second, so she immediately said: "Dean, I was also at fault for what happened yesterday, no matter what punishment it is, I am willing to accept it!"

Anyway, they will be punished, and there is no need to listen to the old bat's yin and yang.

Snape choked on her, and forced back the sarcasm that had reached his throat.

"...If I hear you interrupting the professor again, you will regret it." He said coldly.

Kate felt that his unfathomable eyes seemed to invade her brain.

This can only be done by a Legilimency user with a certain ability. It is a method of penetrating the other party's thoughts with their eyes.

But most of the time, Snape's eyes were so sharp, and he didn't intend to absorb her thoughts, but just used it as a deterrent.

Subconsciously, Kate's mind was empty, and a little smile unconsciously bloomed on her lips, "I won't do it next time, Professor."

Seeing that she was not affected by him at all, Snape narrowed his eyes slightly in surprise, and turned his head to look at the students who dared not speak out.

"It will be assigned by the prefect. In the next month, everyone will clean the rest room once. If you don't get an A or above in Potions in the final exam..."

He didn't continue speaking, but the chill in his words had already caused some students to shiver.

"As for you," Snape looked at Malfoy and Crabbe again, and Snape's tone became even colder, "The two of you will be locked up together for half a month."

Malfoy's head drooped even more, and Crabbe nearly cried.

Even Kate couldn't bear to look at Malfoy's appearance, but it wasn't time for her to sympathize with others.

"Miss Safik," Snape finally turned his attention to her again, "practice black magic in private, I think you should continue to drink potions for half a month."

Kate shivered and accepted the punishment in a low voice.

Damn old bat, knowing that she is not afraid of confinement, so I pick the most annoying one for her!

The last month is crucial, because I don't know when Quirrell will be discharged from the hospital, and when he will return to Hogwarts to steal the Philosopher's Stone.

And for the past half month, she had to face Catherine at close range every day...

Think about it is a mess.

She kept her head down, barely relieved until Snape's voluminous robes disappeared into the Slytherin lounge.

Just raising his head, he found that the atmosphere seemed a little strange——

The main reason is that the resentful eyes of the little snakes are really scary.

Although the object of their glaring was Malfoy who kept his head down and said nothing.

That's right, now that everyone knows that Malfoy betrayed them collectively to the dean, naturally they won't take a good look.

But in this whole matter, apart from the cause, every step was controlled by Kate, including motivating Malfoy to file a lawsuit, which was also done by her.

She is also responsible for Malfoy's current situation.

Again, she is a double standard.

If Malfoy was a boy, then she could at most give him a few words of consolation, but since he was a girl after all, it would be different.

"Senior," Kate accurately caught the prefect in the crowd, "you can allocate the number of people to clean the lounge."

There are so many people fined this time, even if three people are allocated every day, it is enough to clean for a month.

Successfully temporarily shifting everyone's attention to the allocation of personnel, Kate took the opportunity to wink at Malfoy.

But Malfoy only took one look at her, then lowered his head again, and entered the boys' dormitory with Crabgore.

Looking at the lonely figure, Kate stayed where she was, feeling extremely uncomfortable. For the first time, she began to doubt the correctness of her actions.

After all, it was she who had brought Malfoy into this, and now made him the one to cover all the mistakes.

"Kate..." Pansy tugged at the hem of her dress behind her back.

Kate had already talked to her in private last night, and almost made the little girl cry on the spot.

She thought that Pan Xi would not want to find herself these days.

"What's the matter?" She turned around, and there was a noisy voice behind her.

Pansy hesitated and said, "Didn't you notice? Draco lost sleep last night."

"...how would I know?" Kate asked with a question mark on her face.

She didn't live in Malfoy's dormitory.

Pansy's voice faltered, and he turned his head and said "I think you should go see him" before blending into the crowd.

To see Malfoy?

Want to visit her dormitory?

Going to the boys' dormitory in the middle of the night seems to cause bigger news, right?

Kate didn't quite understand her brain circuit, she frowned and thought for a while, only to cancel the absurd idea in her mind.

Chapter 95 A woman's attitude is unpredictable

That night, Kate, who had received a large gift package of Snape's potions, walked out of the office with a bottle of slow-release potion, and skillfully took out a piece of chocolate from her pocket and stuffed it into her mouth.

Feeling that the sweet taste of chocolate was diluting the nauseating bitterness in her mouth, Kate couldn't help closing her eyes and let out a long breath.

When he opened his eyes again, he saw Malfoy and Crabbe walking shyly from the dungeon passage.

Inadvertently looking at Malfoy with an extremely ugly face, Kate was stunned, and subconsciously flinched when she touched those gray eyes.

"Cough...the dean is in the office." She scratched her head in embarrassment, making way for them.

Malfoy's eyes moved slightly, and without making a sound, he led Crabbe past her and knocked on the office door.

Immediately afterwards, Snape's voice sounded from inside, telling them to roll in.

Stretching out his hand to push open the hidden door, Malfoy paused before stepping in, glanced back at Kate, lowered his eyes, and walked in.

The door was closed, and Kate stood at the door, staring at the closed iron door in a daze.

Why... She always felt that Malfoy's expression was very strange just now, which made her feel indescribable?

As long as I think about it for a while, there is an illusion of tightness in my chest.

Unconsciously covering her chest, Kate's expression, which had finally relaxed, became tense again.

Her impressions of Malfoy were mixed.

When she met the other party for the first time, she knew that the Malfoy family, who were once followers of Voldemort, were the accomplices who killed her family.

So from the very beginning, she didn't have a good impression of this little Malfoy, and her contact with her was limited to nodding acquaintances.

After that, Malfoy's various provocations or contacts were right and unilateral. She almost watched them coldly, without any special reaction.

But after she first cast a spell on them to vent her emotions, things started to go wrong.

She found out that Malfoy was a girl, and she had an alchemy tool left by her ancestors in her hand, so she had to give Malfoy a little heart.

This made her start to discover that under the mean and proud appearance of the other party, there is actually a little bit of cuteness.

At least after getting along for a short time, her attitude towards Malfoy was at least not annoying.

Therefore, in the eyes of outsiders, their relationship has changed from tense at the beginning of school to unilateral bullying to peace and harmony.

After that, it was in this incident that all the blame was placed on her.

In Kate's vision, Malfoy should distance himself from herself after this time, and even have a worse attitude than before.

This is the correct attitude towards communication between the two families.

But just now Malfoy seemed to be saying, she doesn't blame herself?

Are you kidding me?

Is this the narrow-minded, small-bellied little Malfoy in the original book, who must take revenge?
