HP in the name of Slytherin

Lily had been waiting in the lounge after dinner. She saw James and Sirius returning to the dormitory after eating. If they wanted to go out to explore at night, they would definitely pass by here.

At 8:30 in the evening, the Gryffindors came back one after another, including James' roommate Remus and Peter, who had a tense relationship.

Lily pretended to be obsessed with homework and sat in the corner of the lounge until nine forty-seven.

She was the only one left in the lounge when she suddenly heard a set of footsteps. As expected, it was James, Sirius, Remus, Monica and Mary.

With the addition of her, it's almost like a group adventure of a boys' dormitory and a girl's dormitory.

Catherine gave Lily a double-sided mirror in the afternoon. If something unexpected happened, Lily could contact her through the double-sided mirror.

"I can't stop them. James even caught a non-venomous snake for tonight. They must go and see it tonight to feel at ease." Lily said in a low voice at that time.

Catherine wanted to comfort her, but she didn't expect Lily's next sentence to say: "Katherine, please go find the professor. I will follow them and try to delay as much time as possible."

This brave girl really took the risk of completely deteriorating her relationship with everyone by doing this.

She was probably also scared, so after saying this to Catherine, she didn't dare to listen to her advice. She put away the mirror and set off to catch up with James and the others who had just left.

The first time Lily contacted Catherine, Catherine was checking Herbo and didn't notice. The second time she contacted her, Severus who was standing next to her heard her.

"She didn't see you in the double-sided mirror. You can stop Lily and I'll ask the ghost to help you lead the way." Catherine said to Severus, who was frowning and pursed his lips.

Severus was silent for a few seconds and shook his head, "I can't stop Lily from doing what she wants to do."

After he finished speaking, he lowered his eyes slightly, "You just asked Haierbo to go over. You probably completely guessed that Lily would follow."

"Even though I guessed it, Lily's bravery still impressed me. Her sincerity to her friends always moved me time and time again."

Severus curled his lips slightly, "Lily is very good."

"Lily's magic is relatively strong in today's adventure team. Her joining is not a hindrance, but more of a protector. Do you understand, Severus?"

Severus was silent again, no one knew Lily's achievements in spells better than him.

Catherine said: "Lily not only regards you as a friend, she also cherishes her friendship with Mary, Monica and Remus. Even James and Sirius are kind classmates to her. She cannot stand by and watch." No one was hurt.”

In the beginning, wasn't Severus accepted into Lily's circle of friends because of her kindness? Severus knew this very well, so he understood what Catherine said.

No matter how much he disliked some people in Gryffindor, as long as he wanted to maintain his friendship with Lily, he had to respect her friendships.

And if he really cherishes Lily, likes Lily, and can't bear to let her be sad, he should know that Lily can also ease the relationship with several people in Gryffindor through today's events. Not only can all the conflicts in the past be cleared up, but they will also change. I like Lily even more.

Severus' lips moved, wanting to say something. After uttering a dry syllable, he found that his mind went blank.

"Selfishness is a kind of love, and so is tolerance. I can't say which one is more noble. I think it depends on what kind of love the other person needs." Catherine looked at Severus and saw that his eyelashes were trembling and he was trying to breathe slowly. Come and adjust yourself in silence.

He has always been a smart man.

But at this time, the cleverness was a little cruel.

After all, Catherine still couldn't bear it, and said with a smile: "I think Severus needs attention and preference, haha, don't look at me like that, that's what I think, I'm an arrogant Miss Slytherin, I'm so If you think that’s all you need to do, what can you do?”

She deliberately put her hands on her hips to make a very arrogant look, and poked Severus' shoulder rudely with her fingertips, "I am selfish. Slytherin will do whatever it takes to achieve his goal. If Severus wants to be selfish, People, that’s normal.”

So if Severus told Catherine that he wanted to stop Lily from participating in today's "team building" activity, Catherine wouldn't think there was anything wrong with him.

but……

Severus took a deep breath, his chest filled with the sweetness of hot cocoa and the cool fragrance of Catherine's body.

He grabbed Catherine's deliberately messy fingers and said, "No, no need."

Just to prevent the obviously good Miss Catherine from pretending to be evil again, he stopped Catherine's performance and gently let go.

It's like letting go and letting Lily continue to make friends freely and blend in.

That's what lilies should look like...

Catherine was stunned for a moment, then touched Severus' head, "Severus always makes me feel...well, what a surprise, you are such a cute kid!"

Severus turned red and rolled his eyes in a panic, "Miss Catherine, if I remember correctly, you are only 11 years old now!"

Even if she knew tacitly that Catherine's actual age must be over 11, at least she was entering Hogwarts as an 11-year-old now.

"Hahaha," Catherine smiled and changed the subject, "Let's go and make some new friends."

Before leaving, Catherine used the Disillusionment Charm and the Invisibility Charm on Severus, so that the two of them could blend into the environment perfectly, and no ordinary professor would be able to find him unless Dumbledore came over.

As for Dumbledore, Catherine asked him to go to the secret room in the afternoon and had already reported tonight's actions, so he would not take the initiative to show up at all.

It was the first time for Porter to organize such a "large-scale" activity. While his heart was pounding with nervousness, he was still excited and ran forward and backward to detect the "enemy situation" for his friends.

From the Gryffindor common room, walk from high to low. As long as you don't run into Peeves or run up the wrong stairs, and pay attention, you won't be noticed by anyone.

As Catherine expected, Lily was completely unable to persuade James and the others. James said "expose Slytherin's true face", Monica said "just go and have a look", and Sirius said "Gryffindor". You have to have an adventurous spirit." Mary also said, "Lily, you should go and see it too."

Remus was the only one who looked helpless to her. Lily thought that Remus actually knew the danger. He would go because he was worried that James and Sirius would encounter danger with the two girls and would not be able to solve it.

There are multiple people and multiple paths, and she used the magic spell well. We went together. If she felt something was wrong, she might as well grab Mary and Monica and leave quickly.

Severus followed Catherine and witnessed with his own eyes that Lily was persuaded left and right by several people, but in the end she was instigated to rebel. He was so angry that he turned blue.

It feels like a well-behaved child gets mixed up with a stupid and naughty kid, and ends up becoming a naughty kid too.

Stupid Potter!

Stupid Blake!

Stupid Lupin!
