HP solves the mystery

Before the Quidditch game officially begins, Hogwarts holds a Halloween dinner.

Severus woke up to the smell of roasting pumpkin wafting through the corridors, a smell that had been wafting through Hogwarts Castle for at least a week.

To be honest, he doesn't like pumpkin very much, and no one who eats more than half of the pumpkin feast will like it again.

The little wizards knew they were going to attend a dinner party in the evening, and they were all uneasy. What they were happy about was not the school banquet, but the masquerade balls held by each college after that.

Professor McGonagall noticed their anomaly and rarely criticized them. Instead, she asked them to participate in class activities to help Filch check out the decorations in the castle auditorium.

Regulus finally got some free time and was able to rest in a warm and bright house while it was pouring rain outside the window.

The little snakes of Slytherin rarely gathered in the common room, which was also decorated in a Halloween style, with skull lights everywhere.

They sat there in twos and threes reading, chatting, and doing homework. The seniors had no expectations for the dinner and were all discussing the masquerade.

When the dinner started, students came to the restaurant one after another.

The restaurant was decorated in a colorful way. A thousand bats turned into mice by the students were flying leisurely among the walls, ceilings and little wizards. There were also many round dumplings like dark clouds floating in the air, everywhere they could see. There are lanterns made of pumpkins, which look very fun.

The meals that appeared on the table were different from the usual ones, and they all had a strong sense of weirdness, including wriggling witch finger biscuits, bloody human brain cakes, ferocious mummy series sausages and bread, disgusting spider cookies, and Eye candy and all.

While Severus found it interesting, he decided not to touch them because they looked too disgusting.

He sat alone in the corner, tapped the cup with his wand, and turned the red liquid inside into transparent water. He picked up the slightly normal boiled potatoes and pumpkin pie on the table and ate it.

Although he had single-handedly deducted several hundred points from Gryffindor before, and the Slytherin students had some changes in his view, they still could not change the fact that he was not popular.

Regulus wanted to go over and sit with him and chat, but he was pulled to sit together by Barty Crouch. Forget it normally, as important roles in Slytherin, they could only sit at this kind of dinner. A prominent place on the long table.

Regulus had to work hard, show off his aristocratic style, and interact with the senior students, chatting about some boring content.

It's nothing more than what role to play in the dance, who to invite as a dance partner, whether you want to attend when Christmas comes...how, how...

There were also little snakes discussing fiercely, expecting the Quidditch team to win the championship, and saying that Regulus was the secret weapon against Gryffindor.

They were looking forward to Regulus fighting with his brother and his brother's friends, so that it wouldn't matter even if he was benefited by Ravenclaw, as long as the champion was not Gryffindor!

Regulus was talking to them with a fake smile. God knew he was impatient to socialize with them. Sometimes it was not without benefit to think about Sirius living a wanton life. At least that man could turn against them directly without caring about the interests of the nobles.

But he couldn't do this. The family's interests were very close. In addition, they were basically the Dark Lord's reserves. Now they were relatives and alumni, and later they were colleagues and competitors.

Severus was aware of the undercurrents under their kind appearance, but he did not want to participate. He just wanted to be alone. It would be best to disappear in the magical world after graduation and not be found by some people.

Soon, Dumbledore stood up in his new dark blue wizard robe with purple stars. He waved his wand and the leftovers on the table disappeared. Then he used the magnifying spell to say some wishes for a happy Halloween, and smiled with McGonagall. The professor left together.

Professor Flitwick used his wand to levitate and fly away from the restaurant. The other teachers also stood up slowly, waiting for the young wizards to return to the lounge of their own college.

The rest was a happy time for the students. As for the rumors that Dumbledore invited the Skeleton Band to perform jazz, there was no such thing.

It's better to look forward to it, Nick's ghosts and Peeves dance together in a group.

Some anxious little lions changed into ghost clothes before eating. Other houses were more calm, but they rushed to the dormitory after Dumbledore and the others left and quickly changed into Halloween costumes.

Severus looked at the impatient little wizards and felt that they were really full of energy, and the storm brought by the Dark Lord did not affect them.

Most of the people dressed as werewolves, vampires, mummies, gods of death... were familiar species in the magic world. They didn't know that there was a real werewolf mixed in among them, and they kept laughing.

Others dressed up as King Arthur, little devils, ghost brides, knights, beautiful elves with pointed ears and popular movie characters in the Muggle world...

The most eye-catching thing is a blond girl dressed as an angel. I don’t know what magic spell was used. A pair of golden wings grew out from behind her. The wings were twice as tall as her. She looked extremely beautiful.

Before he could see more clearly, those people disappeared and entered their respective lounges.

Severus thought to himself that maybe the young wizards from the four major colleges could have a dance party together in the restaurant after the Dark Lord disappeared, otherwise the division would be really severe.

They danced and chased each other in the lounge, some took the opportunity to express their feelings, and some played wizard chess and other fun games...

Severus followed the crowd without even changing his clothes. He just cast a spell on his teeth and grew two fangs, pretending to be a vampire.

"Snape, don't you go and play with them? Hehe, I forgot that you don't like these occasions..." The tall and strong Mulciber, dressed as blond Apollo, picked up the ball very close to Severus. He stuffed the yellow peach pudding into his mouth and smiled kindly, "You must be very proud of yourself recently! You don't even come to play with me and Evan anymore!"

Severus knew from his memory that their fun was to go find a few Gryffindors or young wizards who couldn't stand it to cast evil spells and play tricks on people and people.

The original person never participated. He was only interested in black magic and tried to invent the 'Upside Down Golden Hook', 'Lock Tongue Sealing', 'Toenail Growth Spell'... these little mischievous spells...

As for Mulciber and the others, they used tripping spells, bat spirit spells, pimple spells, etc. to make those little wizards bruised and swollen. It's just that they will be hit back, it just depends on who is more skilled.

Moreover, it is now a common thing for young wizards to cast evil spells on each other in schools. Even Dumbledore can't prevent these from happening, especially the armed fight between Gryffindor and Slytherin.

"Mulciber, you don't have to worry about my affairs. If you have nothing to do, go to the Forbidden Forest with Evan to blow up a bunch of things!" Severus said with a cold face, for this former man who vowed to die to become a Death Eater. Friends are rarely impatient, "You should take good care of yourself, Death Eaters don't be reckless!"

Mulciber curled his lips and sneered, finally looking at this schoolmate seriously.

The shabby second-hand wizard robe has been replaced with a new one. The clothes of good fabric are now worn on the body in a straight and straight manner. The greasy long hair has been washed clean and looks very soft. It is now tied back by a silver-white hair tie and looks pale. Under the dim light, people couldn't help but stare at her little face.

For the first time, Mooreside discovered that his 'good friend' was actually pretty good-looking.

"Snape, don't forget, you are just like me. That adult said that all outstanding people can be Death Eaters, but don't say such sad things..." He leaned closer and whispered, lifting Severus Si's black hair fell down her shoulders and was twisted around her fingers to play with.

Severus frowned, thinking about the meaning of his words, Voldemort recruited troops... Is it so powerful... The wizarding world's brainwashing package...

He was thinking to himself, not noticing Mooreside's almost teasing gesture.

"What are you doing!" Regulus finally escaped from the annoying chat and wanted to sit with Severus, but he didn't expect to see him being pulled into someone's arms!

Mooresaid's ears twitched, he unhurriedly loosened his hair and stood up straight, slightly raising the corners of his lips. The Black family is so out of control...

"Young Master Black, nice to meet you...I'm Mooreside...I was just chatting with Snape. We had a great time chatting!" He deliberately put his hand on Severus's shoulder, with a smile on his face. The Black family are fanatical Death Eaters and will be his future colleagues. "I admire Mrs. Lestrange very much. She is really a powerful person!"

"Moorside, right? I will tell you about my admiration for Bella, and she will like you! Then you must get straight A's in NEWTS, so adults will like you more..." Regulus narrowed his eyes. , he knew this man's deeds, often provoked senior Gryffindor seniors, and defeated them with curses, and had a good reputation in Slytherin.

He stared at the hand on Severus' shoulder, wishing he could burn a hole in it, even though he had never done that!

"Master Black, thank you for your advice, I will try my best!" Mooreside replied with a smile. His tall body matched Apollo's appearance, and he looked very handsome.

The little witches around him watched him exude charm. It was rare to have a sunny and cheerful big boy who was neither as rude as Gryffindor nor as reserved as Slytherin. He completely neutralized the advantages of both sides.

Regulus and Mooreside exchanged words back and forth, calling each other idiots.

Regulus took advantage of his opportunity to fight back, pushed the person aside, and covered Severus, who was still in a daze, behind him.

Mooreside shrugged and left to find the little witch he liked, leaving behind a certain person with a cold face.

Severus looked at him blankly and saw a different person in front of him, Regulus who still had a strange smile on his face. He didn't understand what was going on.

Regulus was so angry that he couldn't explain his feelings. He was also angry that others had taken advantage of him, so he turned around and left.

Severus felt baffled, what happened to this child!
