HP in the name of Slytherin

In order to let Severus, who was trying advanced methods for the first time, have an adaptation process, Catherine said: "I will use a spell this time, please pay attention."

Severus did not dare to take it lightly. To use a higher level of Occlumency, he needed to inject new memories into the emptied brain.

It must be logical, and it must be smooth and silky, with no flaws visible. This is much more difficult than a simple brain-opening Occlumency technique.

Seeing him nod, Catherine looked into his eyes and used the spell again: "Legilimency."

Severus felt the familiar dizziness again, but this time he didn't know if it was because he was too tired, or because he was still not skilled in shaping beautiful memories, or because Catherine's use of magic was much more precise than that of Haierbo... It might be all, in short, when When Severus realized it, the false memories he had created quickly collapsed like a mirage.

His true memory was displayed in front of Catherine without any hindrance at this moment.

In the dilapidated and dim spider tail alley, there is a particularly dilapidated small building.

The house is surrounded by bare walls, and there are almost no small pieces of furniture. The large pieces of furniture also have various unspeakable marks, like they have been smashed, or like all kinds of dirt have been piled on top of each other and have never been cleaned properly.

In Severus's distant memory, their family also had better things, but they were either broken by his father, or damaged by his mother and him when they were beaten, or they were sold when the family had no money. .

All the furniture now was bought by him and his mother from junkyards. It was dirty and old, but at least it was usable.

Mice could be vaguely seen running across the walls, and fleas were dancing on various fabrics. Regardless of whether it is sunlight or moonlight, they can illuminate the entire Spider End Alley, but they cannot illuminate this hut, because when it is too cold in winter, the windows are nailed with wooden boards. If they are taken off, they will have to be nailed back again later. Trouble... you may not be able to find such a suitable and good wooden board.

The father, who seemed to have never smiled before, was away from home during the day. He might have gone out to do part-time work, or he might have gone out drinking. When he came back, he would either fall asleep drunk, or beat his mother and him drunk.

He was always drunk anyway, and it seemed that for as long as Severus could remember, the stench of bad tobacco and alcohol had always lingered around the man.

The mother who shrank at home, like a dusty mouse, was busy every day, cleaning the house that was dirty and messy by her father, and doing some small crafts at home to make money to supplement the family income before her father came back... She spent a day It seemed like there were only four things, serving her husband like a god, getting beaten, taking care of herself, and taking care of Severus.

She is a wizard, but her magic power is very poor. She was inconspicuous at Hogwarts when she was young. She is obviously a pureblood and belongs to Slytherin, but she has no competitiveness, self-esteem, or honor. She even hates it. As a wizard... I probably hate it.

Severus knew this because he saw his mother's old belongings when he was locked in the cellar - his mother, Irene, occasionally wanted to enjoy some personal space, without a crazy husband or a gloomy son, just her.

There was no light in the basement, and the thin air came in through the gaps in the boards. Severus knew when he was locked in for the first time... At that moment, his mother wanted him to die quietly here.

But Severus didn't want to.

He has seen the bright world outside Spider End Alley, and seen the well-dressed children in school who eat delicious and clean food every day. He has been thinking since he was very young, why should he live such a life... His father and mother are willing to do so. For this, he didn't want to.

He wants to grow up quickly and live a life where he has hot water and hot food every day, has clothes that fit the seasons, has a bright and clean home, and will never be hurt or pushed out of the house again.

In extreme fear and uneasiness, Severus used fluorescent light with his bare hands... He didn't understand this spell at the time, but gathered light through his palms. He knew that he was extraordinary at a very young age.

It makes sense for Irene to hate him, because Severus's magical riots as a child led his father to discover his and his mother's wizarding identities.

The more my mother explained, the more my father attributed the failure of his business and the depression of life to his and his mother's identity as wizards.

——It’s all because of you.

- Damn wizard.

——Unlucky guy.

He always said this, whenever things were not going well or he was unhappy, he would say this, and when he got angry, he would hit people.

Severus tried to use magic to riot to kill this disgusting, weak and scary man, and then he was beaten by his mother. For the first time, he knew that his mother was also very strong. For him and his father, if she wanted to suppress them, it would be easy. .

She threatened that if her father dared to abandon her, she would kill him with the most vicious and terrifying curse, and then die with him, leaving their souls entangled forever.

She then warned Severus not to do anything to her man again if he didn't want to die.

As punishment, she locked Severus in the underground storage room...so Severus knew that Irene really wanted to kill him.

Holding the faint beam of light, Severus squatted in the silent cellar. His magic no longer spread outwards, and he just wanted to keep his weak breathing. He kept adjusting himself and trying to widen the inconspicuous gap. After a few hours, he had adapted to the semi-suffocating environment. Even because he found old magical objects buried here, Severus felt that it was good to be locked up here. .

He started studying while having fun, for fear that his mother would find out, and for fear that he would not have a chance next time. His brain was running at an unprecedented speed, and it was too slow to read ten lines at a time. He quickly memorized the contents of the book page by page in a few seconds, and was ready to go out. Then write it down silently and read it secretly.

He was imprisoned for two days. On the third day, because he had to go to school, the very responsible teacher did not see him all day and came to Spider End Alley to look for him. Only then did he bring out the semi-conscious Severus from the basement.

The good news is that Severus has almost finished memorizing all the books. The bad news is that he developed a high fever due to overuse of his brain and almost became a fool.

Under the supervision of teachers and community workers, his parents sent Severus to the hospital with disgust in their eyes. Most of the treatment expenses were reimbursed because Severus was still a primary school student and had some insurance. Fortunately, he was reimbursed in large amounts.

So strictly speaking, this is not the worst news. The worst news is that the things in the basement have been cleared out. The next time Severus is imprisoned in it, he will not be able to find the old books and old wands.

But it didn't matter, he already knew his future was better than he imagined.

He will enter the best magic school in the world and accept the teachings of the most powerful wizards. In the future, he will also become the greatest wizard and make all the damn Muggles and self-degenerate wizards disappear. !

Catherine after reading the memory:...? ? !
