The Extraordinary Apothecary at Hogwarts

"Severus, tell me the reason for seeing you." Dumbledore looked at Snape with a touch of love in his eyes.

After all, Dumbledore watched Snape grow up. Since the unfortunate incident, Snape has been depressed day by day, hiding his emotions, and showing a cold face to everyone. Dumbledore It's also very unpleasant.

Eugenie was accidentally scratched by Quirrell, which just provided an opportunity. Although Snape also has other students he likes, she is undoubtedly the one with the most potential.

"The whole school knows that if she gets hurt, her life will be in danger. I'm protecting her." Snape replied boldly.

Dumbledore paused, never expecting Snape to give such a reason.

It had been a long time since he had seen Snape act so vexatiously as he was doing now.

Flitwick didn't know how to evaluate it, but felt that he should re-acquaint himself with Snape's thick skin.

"There are no outsiders here, Severus, you know the rumors are true and false, do you want to continue pretending?" Flitwick asked helplessly.

Snape ignored it, but bent down and patted Sissy's head, "You tell them, do you want to stay with me?"

Flitwick swayed in surprise and almost fell to the ground.

Was this the same Severus he'd known before?

Sissy understood now why Snape was so angry because he was only fishing for himself, and Flitwick or Dumbledore must have talked to him about it at that time.

It is completely foreshadowing now.

Although it was not fair to Professor Flitwick to say so, Sissy had already made up her mind, and she had no way to refuse Snape's expectant gaze.

"I hope that I can continue to study with the professor." After finishing speaking, she saw the expected satisfied smile, and she was not as miserable as what the Weasley brothers said.

"Therefore, we should also consider the individual wishes of the students." Snape quickly put away his smile and said solemnly.

If the little cakes were around now, Flitwick would like to let them perform a jive for him, and he was in a terrible mood right now.

Dumbledore coughed twice, peeled off a candy and put it in his mouth.

Without Dumbledore's special approval, such an approach would have violated hundreds of school rules, and even the headmaster could not easily make such an instruction.

Dumbledore was silent for a long time, and said slowly: "In my opinion, there are not many first-year classes, and the Defense Against the Dark Arts class has been suspended. Even if it resumes later, she doesn't need to go to it."

"Spell class, transfiguration class, herbal class, astronomy class, these important classes are inconvenient to miss, and there is still plenty of spare time."

Snape frowned and didn't respond. He could accept such a result, but he was still not satisfied.

"I know other classes, you can teach her the same, but the child needs to grow up in the group, and she will have friends in the class."

friend?

Snape almost didn't, he didn't know what kind of feeling it was, but maybe it was a good thing for Sissy, and he shouldn't stop it.

"it is good."

After a silence, Snape finally agreed.

"Let's go." He said to Sissy.

This time, the pace was much slower, and Sissy was able to follow closely at a normal speed.

In the principal's room, Dumbledore stroked Fox's feathers without saying a word.

"Albus, those rumors outside..." Flitwick broke the silence.

"It's okay, although it's outrageous, it just helped us solve the problem, so don't worry about it." Dumbledore's deep eyes showed a complex expression.

"Severus..."

Dumbledore sighed deeply.

He planned many things and succeeded many times, but he also left too many regrets. The distance between life and death, no matter how powerful his magic power is, there is no way to make up for it.

If you make a mistake, you will always be wrong. No matter how many years have passed, the result is the same irreversible.

People can only look forward and look back, there are too many unbearable things.

"Perhaps this is the best result," Dumbledore said to himself, "Whether it's Severus or Eugenie, I don't have to do anything more."

Flitwick didn't know how to comfort him. He didn't worry as much as Dumbledore. He silently picked up a few candies on the table and directed them to dance.

"It's very interesting, Felius, no wonder the students like it." Dumbledore watched the candies dance with great interest, and tapped his fingers on the table following the rhythm of the candies.

Seeing Dumbledore regain his former look, Flitwick's mood also improved a lot.

"It's been more than ten years. Time flies. Harry and Eugenie are here. But I always think I'm still as young as I was decades ago."

Dumbledore opened a box of multi-flavored beans, which he didn't usually like much.

"You take one too, Felius, I'll touch one at random, and promise not to peek."

Flitwick took the multiflavored beans and popped them into his mouth.This smell... His expression quickly became strange.

Dumbledore asked gloatingly like a child, "What does it smell like?"

"Damn it, it's the smell of booger." Flitwick showed a bitter face, how could he be so unlucky, and asked what the purpose of this kind of thing was invented, and why it was designed to smell like booger for people to eat.

"Ha, I'll try it too." Dumbledore randomly picked one up and put it in his mouth.

"Great, mine is from Toffee, I'm much luckier than you, Felius, you have such a dark face, be careful when you go down the stairs, don't break your old bones." Dumbledore was still the same interesting.

Flitwick smiled: "I'm much younger than you. Speaking of which, Severus finally no longer lives alone in that cold stone room. You should be very happy."

"Indeed, if it weren't for Harry, I was worried that Severus would go before me."

"People who are alive must see some hope. Everything will be fine, Albus, and we have to look on the bright side of everything." Flitwick let the dancing candy take off the candy wrapper, and went straight Dumbledore jumped out of his mouth.

"I really like your dancing tricks. Can you teach me? Anyway, you don't have class today. We two old guys should have a rich after-school life."

"What's so difficult about it, look after it!"

"I guess you don't mind if I eat more candy today?"

"I don't mind, I want to have a few too."

The sweet taste always makes people fall into happiness.
