HP solves the mystery

Love doesn't come out of nowhere, you have to give enough love first.

Tom woke up from his dream again. He could still feel the joy of being hugged, and even had the idea of ​​​​tying the person to his side and watching him all the time.

This is so weird.

Covering his racing heart, Tom summoned the house elf and drank a few glasses of brandy.

Nagini was awakened by his movement and yawned as she swam over to Tom.

[Tom, what’s wrong with you? ] Nagini flicked her tail. Without the company of the basilisk, she felt that the manor was too big and boring.

After Tom drank the entire bottle of brandy silently, he told Nagini his doubts.

As for why, there are few people in the world who can speak Parseltongue, not to mention that Nagini has been his partner for decades.

[Nagini, I have been dreaming recently... I dreamed that I turned into a black cat... and met a big green snake... The young people inside were very kind to me, but I can't even remember their names...] Tom He thought this dream was ridiculous. How could he turn into a cat? Even being held in someone’s arms, Jiang Jiang Niang Niang!

Nagini suddenly straightened up and moved closer to Tom, spitting out the letter and sniffing his arm to make sure he wasn't being impersonated.

When Tom saw this, he patted Nagini's snake head. I don't know since when, it became smarter and smarter.

[Although I don’t know if you have ever turned into a cat, I should know the names of Orochi and Young Man. ] Nagini smelled a familiar smell and heard Tom say this, thinking she was joking with it, so she continued what she was saying.

Tom's brows moved slightly when he heard this, but Nagini's next words made him dumbfounded.

[That snake is Haierbona, the one we met in the Forbidden Forest! Are you planning to take them to the manor to play? ] Nagini poked Tom's leg and brought up the topic again.

[When did you run to the Forbidden Forest? I do not know how? ] Tom asked in surprise.

This time it was Nagini's turn to be speechless, her tail swung rapidly and her body twisted into a twist.

【You asked Duoduo to take me there! Hum, and the golden peacock also knows it. 】 Nagini betrayed her teammates without hesitation, and then expressed her request, "You also promised me to eat Honeydukes candy once a week, but you haven't bought it for me for several months." 】It said and bumped Tom's right hand with its head to show its dissatisfaction.

Tom became thoughtful, the blond peacock...is this talking about Lucius?

So at three o'clock in the morning, Lucius was woken up from his bed while sleeping soundly. He touched his dull blond hair and headed to Voldemort's Manor amid his wife's silent comfort.

So he received a strange mission. Voldemort asked him to investigate a big green snake near Hogsmeade and the young man who accompanied the green snake, and then order a batch of Honeydukes for Nagini every month. candy.

Lucius really wanted to say that he was not a handyman, but the current head of the Malfoy family.

But looking at Voldemort's gloomy face, Lucius swallowed his words.

He thought that the task would be easy to complete, but he went to investigate, and the people he sent out came back batch after batch, but there was no trace of the big snake.

But Nagini's candy was ordered, and she enjoyed eating it.

Tom saw that it tasted delicious, so he picked up a sandwich candy and ate it.

Nagini was in a good mood and gave him some. Then she rolled up a small bag from somewhere and put the candy in it.

Tom saw a little black cat embroidered on it and the pile of missing snacks, and knew that this was a bag with a seamless stretching technique.

Just as he was about to ask Nagini where he got it, he was interrupted by the butler who appeared.

The butler was a half-blood wizard who was studying in Ravenclaw. He was in his thirties and was reporting the situation to Tom on the phone.

"Lord, there has been progress in the ancient Chinese books and elixirs you requested to study..." He said solemnly and handed over the materials in his hand.

Tom flipped through the information and pondered, ancient books and elixirs? When was he going to study it?

"Tell them to bring some Concentration Pills. If the effect is good, I will provide additional funds." He waved his hand and asked the butler to pass the message.

After the housekeeper disappeared, he slumped down on the chair, took out the stabilizer and drank it for himself.

Another strange picture appeared in his mind just now. The young man appeared in his memory again. The picture became clearer and clearer. At least now he could see clearly that the young man's hair was black.

He propped up his head and squinted his eyes as he watched Nagini swim around.

If anyone were there, they would notice that his eyes were gradually turning red.

Nagini dragged the little bag and was about to hide it in the big bed. The next moment, the little bag flew up. When she turned around, she found that it had fallen into Tom's hand.

[Tom, do you want some snacks? ] Nagini was not angry, she thought it was because Tom didn't have enough snacks.

Tom didn't answer. He rubbed the black cat pattern on the small bag, opened the bag and looked at it, and found that there were several photos of the Muggle world inside.

The photo was taken of Nagini and a green snake wearing little socks and a red Santa hat. There was a little boy with black hair and black eyes next to him. The building behind him was obviously Muggle style.

【Who is this? 】Tom looked at the familiar face of the little boy and asked Nagini, until he turned to another photo, his whole body froze.

Nagini put her head on Tom's shoulder, looked at the photos and spat out the message.

【It’s my playmate Haierbo. 】It rubbed Tom's face and said happily, "I forgot to tell you my birthday, it's Christmas!" 】

If Haierbo were here, he would definitely jump up and scold this snake imitator for stealing other snakes' birthdays.

Tom didn't have time to think about how Nagini had shrunk and her so-called birthday. His right hand tremblingly touched the young man whose back was the only one in the photo.

Everything he dreamed about in his dream appeared in the photo...

[Nagini, where were these photos taken? ] Tom asked in a hoarse voice.

Nagini looked at him strangely and replied in a low voice, "In the city center, you and I took the photo together. Well, this is you." 】The tip of its tail pointed at the boy with black hair and eyes in the photo to emphasize.

Tom's pupils shrank and he recalled carefully. The boy in the photo looked five or six times more like him when he was a child. He looked happier and richer.

Nagini noticed something strange about him and couldn't help but ask, "Tom, what's wrong with you?" Have you forgotten Sif and Helbo? 】

Tom's heart was filled with a sense of powerlessness. He thought about the reasons why all kinds of strange things happened. It might be the sequelae of the slices, or it might be that he stayed in the secret room for too long, but he never thought that it was caused by amnesia.

[Nagini, take me to the house in the city center. immediately. ] Tom interrupted Nagini's rambling. He just wanted to verify the conjecture in his mind.

But how is that possible? He never...

Nagini huddled up aggrievedly and took Tom to the house.

The houses in the city center were hidden with countless defensive spells and concealment spells. If you didn't look for them specifically, you wouldn't be able to find them.

Tom glanced around the room, feeling familiar.

Nagini was jumping up and down in the room. Where were Basilisk and Sif? Why are so many things missing?

And Tom walked into a room based on his feeling, walked around the room covered with dustproof cloth, and finally found a small box deep in the closet. Even though he was cast an enhanced ignore spell, he still found it.

He opened the box without thinking, not even thinking about the consequences if it contained a curse against him.

Tom looked through the photo album, and when he turned to the gentle photo of the young man looking at the front and smiling, his heart felt a little sour.

"It turns out...you have always existed..."

Fragments of getting along with the young man kept flashing through his mind, and that scene made him a little jealous. How could he become a cat and find someone who loved and cared for him wholeheartedly, while he had nothing.

He stroked the young man's face and whispered, "Severus Snape..."

When Tom returned to the manor from the city center, after struggling for a few seconds, he summoned Lucius.

Whether it's to find this person who can capture his heart, or the ring he put on someone in that clip, he has to get that person back.

One moment, Lucius was playing on the beach with his wife and son. The next moment he received the summoning signal, he could only sigh, change his clothes, and hurried to the manor.

Regulus, who came back from surfing in board shorts, learned the reason why Lucius left and lamented Voldemort's trust in him.

Tom looked at Lucius with half-wet hair and asked, "Am I disturbing you?"

"Lord, today is your stipulated holiday." Lucius resisted the desire to complain and answered respectfully.

Tom leaned lazily on the chair and tapped his fingers on the table. After a long silence, he spoke softly, "Lucius, do you know a young wizard named Severus Snape?"

Although it is a question, the tone is firm.

Lucius wiped the sweat from his forehead, carefully looked at Voldemort's face with his eyes, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that he was not angry.

"Lord, he studies in Slytherin House and is a few years younger than me."

Tom changed into a comfortable position and waited for the follow-up.

Lucius couldn't figure out Voldemort's intention for a while, so he could only tell the information that everyone knew.

"I did very well in Potions. After graduation, I did the potion business with the Malfoy family... I didn't join any faction..." He answered selectively, and suddenly thought of something, he paused, "In 82, I was with Mr. Snape. There is an extra child with black hair and black eyes..."

Tom narrowed his eyes when he heard this. Lucius knew his affairs very clearly.

"You have a good relationship? Huh?" Tom gave up the idea of ​​Legilimency for Abu's child and asked about another matter, "Do you know where he is now?"

Lucius's forehead was sweating even more, and most of his back was wet with cold sweat.

"Lord, we are just ordinary friends. We have more communication because of the potion business... Just give me some time and I will find him..." Lucius didn't know why Voldemort was so crazy, but he knew that eating his boss's melons was a good idea. Not that easy.

Tom stared at Lucius, who was trembling slightly, and his irritation subsided a little. This man had a wife and children and was still timid. He expected that Sif would not fall in love with him.

"Lucius, no matter what method you use, you must find him! Even if he is tied up, he must be tied up in front of me." Tom coughed, and the young man's gentle smiling face appeared in his mind, and he stopped talking to Lu Xiu. Si was interested in talking.

Lucius walked out of the study and let out a long breath. Fortunately, he had asked someone to monitor Sif's movements early, but now, where is that guy?

Someone who was missed by Tom and Lucius was standing next to Lake Baikal in Siberia. He looked at the mirror-clear Lake Baikal and the blue ice, cracks and icicles passing by, and marveled at the miraculous craftsmanship of nature.

Isidore Prince touched his shriveled belly, interrupting Sif's thoughts.

"How long do you want to watch? Let's go have a meal quickly. I'm almost starving to death." During this period, in order to avoid being discovered, they frequently changed modes of transportation, and it took them more than half a month to arrive in Russia.

"Wait a minute, my pet is taking a bath." Sif looked at his watch. He told the basilisk to come back after a good meal and to understand sustainable development.

Isidor knew that Sif had a green snake that was humane. He had seen the snake's appearance when he kept vigil for Sif, but let the snake take a bath by itself? Isn't this a little too outrageous?

If his wand hadn't been lost in the avalanche and he shouted "Snake from xx is coming", everything would have been solved.

And it’s not easy for him to buy a wand. Russia’s Kodosdoriz Wizarding School is built on the flickering Buyan Island. If you’re not a familiar wizard, you won’t be able to find it, let alone the wizard here. They all live in isolation.

Isidor's old face was wrinkled. If it weren't for the fact that the side branch had been eyeing the manor's medicine field in order to please Dumbledore and the people behind it, and they had taken away the secret recipe of the potion passed down by the family, they would have killed him, otherwise He would not panic and run into an avalanche mountain.

And the person who betrayed him was his nephew who he had doted on for decades.

but……

He cast a quick glance at Sif, finding his grandson was a blessing in disguise.

Silver noticed the old man's little movements and sighed deeply. He really couldn't stand the old man's strangely loving eyes, which reminded him of Dumbledore.

"Mr. Prince, if you feel bored, you can leave first." Sif issued an eviction order. Even if he guessed that the old man was really his grandfather, it was difficult for him to accept relatives who ignored the suffering of his daughter and grandson.

Isidor's eyes darkened. He could see Sifu's alienation from him, but he didn't know how to explain what happened. He thought his grandson had been dead for more than ten years.

"No, Mr. White, you are mistaken. I am just hungry. I don't want to leave. I want to go eat with you." Isidore's gray hair was a little dazzling in the sun, and his old face and weak body told him no. No matter how young you are, you don’t have much time to spend with your grandson.

Sifu's brows moved when he heard this, but he said no more words to let him leave.
