For Angus, this is a happy day, and his good impression of Christmas has risen to a certain height.

For Tom, it was thrilling to see Salazar carrying Angus back to the bedroom in the early hours of the morning.

However, the most important thing is that Tom finally asked a clear question.

"Is Angus Slytherin really your child?"

The biological kind!

It's no wonder that Tom muttered to himself, he didn't want to believe it, even though the Gaunt family, who were descendants of Salazar Slytherin, had proven on another level that Salazar Slytherin must have children.

But isn’t this a woman who has never seen any special relationship with Salazar?

It's not that Tom couldn't remember Monica's existence. In Tom's own opinion, she was a servant of Salazar, similar to the relationship between Death Eaters and Voldemort. Voldemort would not take a fancy to witches among Death Eaters.

It was absolutely impossible to allow those witches to have strange relationships with him.

However, Voldemort has always been unscrupulous, and the good-looking Death Eaters were almost taken to bed by Voldemort. However, because of his pursuit of immortality, Voldemort was disgusted with the idea of ​​having children.

He didn't treat the Death Eaters as serious people, so as far as Tom knew, he had many lovers, but unfortunately they were all emotionless ones.

Tom himself didn't even take the Death Eaters in his eyes, so he felt that Monica and Old Nott were Salazar's "Death Eaters", so he never regarded them as a threat.

So, a thousand years ago, there was a woman who had a close enough relationship with Salazar Slytherin, right? So close that she could give Salazar a child! ! !

Tom was really curious about who that person was.

Sarah looked at Tom's expression and squinted her eyes, finding it interesting.

"What do you want to know?"

Tom actually couldn't tell what he wanted to know. He just looked at Salazar stubbornly, waiting for an answer.

Sarah looked at Angus who was sleeping soundly on the bed and thought about it for a long time.

"Yes."

This is the answer.

Salazar admitted Angus's identity, although he was still very surprised by Angus's appearance. Anyone would be a little uncomfortable with the sudden addition of a child.

This was not the answer Tom wanted to hear, so he pursed his lips and said nothing.

In the bedroom, it was quiet.

Tom's voice was filled with confusion. He lowered his voice and said, "Is that so..."

The atmosphere continued to be tense, and Tom didn't even know what he was talking about.

"Did you come to Hogwarts for something? If you need it...if there is anything I can do, please tell me..."

Salazar just said calmly: "No need."

It wasn't until Salazar left that Tom felt deeply powerless. He slowly fell to the carpet, his eyes full of confusion.

In fact, he knew very well that Angus's identity was true, because there was no need to tell such a lie. There was no need for the Sorting Hat, there was no need for Angus, and there was no need for anyone to do this...

Ugh……

Not long after Salazar left the Slytherin common room, he met Snape.

He subconsciously glanced sideways, and then made eye contact with the person in the portrait who was still dozing on the wall with half-open eyes because he noticed some movement.

The man in medieval clothes seemed to look at Salazar carefully, then muttered something, continued to hang his head, leaned on the frame of the portrait, closed his eyes, and slept.

Salazar was a little embarrassed. He had forgotten that this was the corridor near the Slytherin common room, not the corridor near the Gryffindor common room. There were no windows here, and you couldn't see the sky outside through the windows. .

But he roughly remembered when he and Angus came back, and he estimated that the time now was around five or six in the morning.

Snape frowned and looked at Salazar. He was silent for a long time and did not ask why Salazar appeared in Hogwarts. Instead, he asked in a low voice: "You just came from Slytherin's common break." Came out of the room?"

Before Salazar could answer, Snape snorted coldly and continued: "Are you going to take a look at your masterpiece?"

The masterpiece in Snape's mouth refers to Tom Riddle.

Salazar took a deep breath and faced Snape. He looked at Snape's alert eyes, but felt nothing in his heart.

"That's it."

In fact, it was because Angus was still young and it was the time when he was snoozing. After he was tired from walking, he fell asleep leaning on Salazar. Salazar had no choice but to send him back to Hog. Watts.

Snape was filled with confusion for a long time, as if he couldn't find a suitable topic to talk to Salazar for a while.

Salazar said hesitantly: "Don't you have anything to ask?"

Snape had many questions that he wanted to ask, but unfortunately, some of them were difficult to ask.

Salazar sighed, and his sigh was clearly audible in the quiet environment. Snape had to brace himself to face Salazar.

"Don't you ask Draco Malfoy?" Salazar said. "I remember that you seemed to be familiar with Lucius Malfoy."

Snape said hesitantly: "Yes... we can be considered friends..."

In fact, they are not friends, but when Snape was in school, Lucius happened to be the prefect of Slytherin. At that time, Snape was not doing well, and the entire Slytherin school actually looked down on mixed-race people. , and Snape is obviously a mixed race.

The pure-blood wheel could be said to be very popular at that time, which made Snape's life in Slytherin College a bit difficult. When he was only a first-year student, life was particularly difficult.

Snape, who had just come into contact with magic, had not yet had time to show off his talent. He felt that at that time, his only salvation was Lily Evans. Snape was relaxed only when he was with Lily.

But his good relationship with the Muggle witches in Gryffindor House also became another excuse to isolate and exclude Snape in Slytherin House. Like snowflakes, layer after layer, Snape felt suffocated. .

However, the Slytherin students did not do anything extremely bad to Snape. This was due to Lucius Malfoy's warning. He did not prevent the Slytherin students from being violent towards Snape, but He doesn't allow any bloody "accidents."

That was the bottom line Lucius set for Slytherin at that time.

Snape could at least breathe a sigh of relief within this default rule.

Until Lucius graduated and left Hogwarts, in fact, by the seventh grade, Lucius's jurisdiction had been loosened. After all, at that time, Lucius had lost his father, and his mind was occupied by his family. Things are tied up, and there is not so much energy to manage Hogwarts and Slytherin.

Snape no longer faced only cold violence and language difficulties from students in the same college. Those young wizards whose personalities were not yet fully mature began to commit violent acts against Snape.

It was a difficult time for Snape, but at that time, Snape also learned a lot of magic, especially his talent in potions, which allowed Snape to win Slughorn. Professor's appreciation.

Regardless of whether Lucius Malfoy intended to help Snape or not, in Snape's view, he recognized Lucius's casual care and help to him.

Later, Snape and Lily parted ways because he was lost in power.

Among them, Snape still received help from Lucius Malfoy. If it weren't for Lucius's recommendation, Snape would not have joined the Death Eaters.

No matter how you look at it now, at that time, in Snape's eyes, if he wanted to continue to study magic in depth, Death Eaters were a good choice.

Therefore, Snape became familiar with Lucius after going back and forth.

"Lucius...did he have anything to say at that time?"

Salazar stared into Snape's eyes and said in a cold voice, "I killed him."

This was enough to make Snape narrow his eyes.

"I made him kill himself, didn't I?"

This was the first time Snape heard about the circumstances of Lucius's death. He took a deep breath and wondered how Salazar could be so clean and tidy, as if he didn't care at all about the terrible things he said.

"Really..." Snape's tone was bitter. In fact, he almost blurted out a question about why, but then quickly changed his words. He wanted to give up on holding Salazar responsible for Lucius's death.

After all, Draco is still in the hands of the person in front of him, and the child seems to have no idea how his biological parents died. I don't know whether this is a good thing or a bad thing for the child.

"Will you tell Draco?" Snape actually wanted to care about Draco more. He was worried about Draco's future.

Salazar replied succinctly: "Yes!"

Snape took a breath. He couldn't understand what Salazar was thinking. He himself said that Lucius and his wife chose to die because of Salazar's pressure.

But for young wizards, their concept of the world is different and wonderful.

"Are you planning to wait until Draco is an adult before telling him?"

That's fine. By that time, Draco's tolerance will be stronger and he should be able to adjust his mentality quickly.

Salazar continued: "You don't have to wait until late. If he wants to know, he asks me and I will tell him."

"Aren't you worried that he resents you because of the death of his parents?" Snape looked at Salazar. "Even if, as you said, Lucius and Narcissa took their own lives, they were also forced to do so by you."

"So, he will probably resent me very much... It also has to do with relationships. If he wants to be resentful, just come with resentment."

Salazar's attitude was so calm that Salazar himself was smiling and looking at Snape seriously all the time.

Snape thought for a long time before saying in a hoarse voice: "I don't want that child to be hurt again."

"and……"

Snape observed Salazar's expression, but didn't see anything.

"Ever since Lucius and Narcissa passed away and Draco's whereabouts were unknown, Malfoy has been torn apart. Draco's return may not be a good thing for him."

Snape was reminding Salazar.

"He is already a thorn in the flesh in the eyes of some people."

Salazar shrugged nonchalantly.

"At least you should tell Draco about the dangers he will be exposed to."

Salazar just looked at Snape with a smile: "You can tell him everything yourself."

Snape was silent.

Salazar shook his head and planned to leave Hogwarts. Maybe before leaving, he needed to see Herbo in the secret room. He didn't know if it had eaten the roasted whole lamb that he wanted to eat...

Just when Salazar was leisurely planning to go see Herbo and say goodbye to the snake, he was stopped by Snape again.

"Brown!"

Salazar turned back impatiently and looked at Snape.

He stared at Snape, waiting for his next words.

Snape just looked at Salazar silently. Finally, he took a deep breath and whispered to Salazar: "Goodbye..."

Salazar moved the corners of his mouth slightly and said in a low voice: "Goodbye."

When Salazar found the secret room, Helbo had already been fed by the house elves with more than a dozen roasted whole lambs. After eating and drinking enough, he lay comfortably in the secret room, his tail swaying, brushing against the accumulated dust. of ground.

The temperature inside Hogwarts, especially the temperature in the Slytherin Chamber, was very suitable, making Halberd feel a little drowsy, and he felt that he could enter hibernation smoothly.

What Saracha saw was the listless Halbo, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

That's fine, there's no problem in letting Haierbo stay in the secret room like this.

After Salazar made sure that there was no big problem on Haierbo's side, he left Hogwarts.

By this time, the snow had stopped, and the gravel paths in Hogwarts Castle were covered with snow. The snow was white. Salazar was walking in the snow, and he could only feel that there was a vast expanse of white on the ground and in the sky.

"I don't know if Honeydukes is still open at this time..."

He gave all his snacks for the next month to Angus, but he had nothing here.

For Salazar, who loves sweets, this is hard to imagine. He cannot imagine that he will not be able to eat desserts and candies for more than a month in the future.

After Godric left, Salazar loved sweets even more. The sweeter, for him, the better.

Life is already very bitter, so I can only eat something sweet to adjust to this gloomy life.

That is, without Godric, Salazar would have to go to the potion shop to buy his tooth-healthy potion.

Salazar raised his hand and touched his cheek.

Even if his tooth hurts, he still wants to eat something sweet.
