Chapter 83 Snape's Letter (Part [-])

It was rumored that Snape's most precious place was his medicine storage room.

No one can enter there, the professor returned the hut and cast the strictest magic to prevent the students from breaking in.

Someone once attacked the hut at night and stole some potions. At that time, William was transferring Lu Wei with Cedric and the others.

After Professor Snape returned from Azkaban, he added a few more spells to the hut, but today he was attacked again.

William knew about this. On the day he was caught in the cycle for the first time, he saw Dumbledore's memory in the pensieve. Professor Snape said that he was fighting a "self".

Presumably the professor discovered that someone wanted to enter his cabin, and then the fight broke out.

The wooden door was closed, and there was a layer of flames on it. After William approached, no magic was triggered.

The attackers should have broken through the defense, but Professor Snape was taken away by the Ministry of Magic before he could rearrange the magic in the hut.

William glanced around, seeing that there was no one in the corridor, he opened the door and walked in.

It was a dark room, with hundreds of glass bottles on the shelves, slimy specimens of animals and plants floating in colorful potions.A cabinet in the corner was filled with herbs.

"Burning flames."

William flicked his wand casually a few times, and lit the kerosene lamp on the table.

This room contained regular herbs and corpses of magical creatures. It was indeed a treasure trove for making potions, but it was not as precious as William imagined.

He was slightly disappointed.

William's attention was quickly drawn to the desk, where there was a bunch of keys.

"The key to the office?" William thought for a moment and picked up the key.

There was also a note under the key, scrawled on it: Professor Dumbledore will keep it for me.

If it's a particularly precious key, it's really not easy for Professor Snape to take it to Azkaban.

William searched around and found an old box in the corner.

There was a big lock on the box. William compared it and found that it was the keyhole of the key.

Although it is not a good habit to secretly open other people's boxes, William is now in a time loop and no one will find out.

Soon, his curiosity suppressed his inner integrity.

In fact, it doesn't matter even if there is a curse arranged on the box, anyway, William was seriously injured, and he can recover as before tomorrow.

William walked to the box with seven locks, inserted the first key into the keyhole, opened the box, and found a pile of clothes inside.

He closed the box, inserted the second key into the second lock, and opened it again. There were no more clothes in the box, but various potions textbooks, some parchment and quills.

William quickly inserted the third, fourth, fifth, and sixth keys into the lock and opened the chest, each time revealing something different.

Finally, he inserted the seventh key into the lock, opened the lid of the box, and William's pupils shrank.

The bottom of the box turned out to be a room, like a basement, with a ladder hanging at a height of about three meters deep.

William climbed down the ladder.

It was a huge room, almost exactly the same layout as the outside, with a long corridor on the far right, too dark to see clearly.

There was this kerosene lamp on the table, and when William lit it, the room suddenly lit up.

On his left is a pear wood table with a chair in front of the table. On the table, there is a group photo and a bouquet of lilies.

William picked up the photo, which couldn't be moved, and he knew it was the Muggle way of taking pictures.

In other words, it was a Muggle who took this photo, but for some reason, Professor Snape didn't use the developing potion on this photo, and kept the original style.

The photo has a long history and has a sense of historical vicissitudes: it shows a man and a woman, both of whom are only about ten years old, and the background is a playground with almost no people.A large chimney towered impressively in the distant sky.

The girl was swinging, and a skinny boy pushed the swing behind her.

The boy's black hair is very long, and the clothes on his body are extremely incongruous, as if he was dressed in this way on purpose: a pair of jeans that are too short, a worn-out coat that is too big and long like an adult's, and a strange-looking pregnant woman Clothes-like shirts.

In the corner of the photo, there should be another person, but it was directly torn off.

The boy smiled happily.

Or, this was the first and only time he laughed so happily.

William recognized that it was Professor Snape and the girl named Lily.In Dumbledore's pensieve, the scene on the train, there are two of them.

William guessed that it was taken by Lily's parents, because Snape didn't look like a family with money to buy a camera when he was young.

On the desktop, there is also an envelope, signed on April No. 20, which is today.

On the envelope, there was no postage stamp or other markings, but it was written: I miss Lily for three thousand 910 five days, and send it to the girl I love the most.

There was a piece of paper under the envelope, and because of the cover, William could only see the last few lines.

"Lily, Dumbledore told me, 'We're all the same, we're all in pain, our lives are messed up, life's just so confusing.'

But I... I'm tired of it.I have nothing but awareness of the malevolence of the world.

This is not the life I want, I can't hold on anymore..."

Before Professor Snape left, he should have been writing a letter here, but before he finished writing, he heard the sound of an attack at the door, and left in a hurry.

William opened the drawer of the desk, and he froze. The entire drawer was full of envelopes!
The inscription on each one reads to Lily.

However, none of them were sent.

Because Lily died 11 years ago.

Snape probably really... loved Harry's mother, and these letters were the best proof.

With such hot feelings, at that moment, William was unable to open these letters and read all the contents.

He sighed slightly, turned and walked out of the room, and walked towards the corridor on the right.
