HP solves the mystery

Lily's cry was not loud, just sobbing quietly, and the tears in her eyes fell one by one, which was very pitiful.

Severus stood opposite Lily, and to outsiders it seemed that he was the one who made her cry.

Although today is not the weekend, there are still young wizards relaxing by the Black Lake. Thanks to Lily's choice of a remote place, there are no wizards to come and gossip.

"You damn slug, stay away from Lily!" James Potter couldn't see the goddess being bullied, so he took off the invisibility cloak he was wearing and jumped out from behind a tree not far away.

If Peter hadn't told him that he saw Lily coming to the Black Lake and being with Snape, he wouldn't have been hurriedly walking over with the invisibility cloak on, wanting to see what they were talking about. Unexpectedly, he saw the goddess being raped. Bullied, exploded instantly.

"Lily, don't be afraid, I will help you teach him a lesson!" Potter comforted Lily, then turned to look at Severus fiercely, "Stinky bat! Let you bully Lily! Damn evil dark wizard!"

"Expelliarmus!" Potter took the lead in launching the spell with full malice.

"There are many obstacles!" Severus cast a curse to resist. He had been wary of Potter for a long time, and added an armor to protect himself when he launched an attack.

"Damn it!" Potter cursed and uttered several spells in succession, "Imprison him quickly and turn them all to petrification! Stand still with your legs frozen and die!"

He was so angry that he forgot to cast the curse, he just wanted to immobilize Severus and humiliate him.

"There are many obstacles! Expelliarmus!" Severus blocked Potter's attack and approached step by step, "Imprison him quickly! Expelliarmus!"

Potter also fought back, but he still missed a move. The wand in his hand flew out of his hand and flew in the direction of Lily, landing right at her feet.

Before Potter had time to get back his wand, his body rose into the air and was hung upside down on a crooked tree one meter away from the ground. The hem of his black school uniform drooped, revealing his elegant leather shoes and trousers, and his messy hair pointed toward the ground like a broom. .

"Put me down! You disgusting snot-nosed man! Stinky bat! Evil dark wizard! You have the ability to challenge me alone!" Potter shouted, regretting not calling Sirius and the others, because Severus was almost killed in his heart. His guilt disappeared long ago when he 'badged' Lily many times and cast spells to counter Gryffindor classmates.

Severus chuckled. Fortunately, he was proficient in using the silent spell of the 'Upside Down Golden Bell', wouldn't it come in handy?

Little Barty, who was planning to help not far away, breathed a sigh of relief. Gryffindor's lion was still annoying!

He rolled his eyes and fluttered the paper crane in his hand, letting it call Regulus.

Potter hung upside down on the tree, his hands hanging down over his head. He swayed from side to side and saw Lily who was stunned not far away. He became more and more disgusted with Snape in his heart. It was him who caused him to lose face in front of the goddess!

When Lily met Potter's eyes, her face turned a little pale. When she heard Potter's accusation against Severus, she felt a little secretly happy in her heart; now that she saw this scene, she began to complain about Potter's behavior. People are coming.

"Severus!" Lily wiped her tears haphazardly with her hands, frowned dissatisfied, glanced at him angrily, pointed her wand at Potter and said, "The curse will stop!" After the spell was recited, Potter immediately fell down and landed heavily on the grass, his body covered in mud and water.

Potter climbed up in embarrassment, went to get the wand at Lily's feet, turned and pointed it at Severus.

"Fire is burning!" (Items hit will be burned by the magma emitted by the spell.)

"There are many obstacles!" Severus frowned. This Potter was really annoying, "Expelliarmus!"

The wand in Potter's hand came out again, and the man was knocked to the ground.

"Potter's wand is flying." Severus chanted a spell to summon Potter's wand. Looking at his angry eyes, he snorted, "Did your mother really not mistake you for a troll? Idiot. !”

"Snotlout! Thief! Disgusting bat! You fatherless bedbug should get out with your alcoholic father and cowardly mother...take your rags back to the slums..." Potter got up from the ground. , his face turned red, and he pointed at Severus with trembling fingers, looking very angry.

His unscrupulous words made the two people present change their expressions, one was Severus and the other Lily.

Severus pursed his lips and looked at Lily. Only Lily, who grew up with the original person, knew these things.

"Lock the tongue and seal the throat." He recited the spell loudly to Potter, with anger on his face. His heart was not shaken by those words. He thought that he could not let this person go so easily, so he cast another stinging spell. .

Potter's handsome face became swollen, but he couldn't speak. He could only cry out in pain while covering his stinging face.

Lily was shocked by Potter's words, and her heart was frozen by that look. She was froze even if she wanted to go back to Potter's magic war.

"James, are you okay? Let's go to the hospital wing quickly!" When she saw Potter's miserable state, the corners of her mouth twitched slightly, and she turned to look at Severus with eyes red from crying, "You are happy now ! James was made like this by you! Return the wand quickly!"

Severus's mind was filled with questions. Little girl, double standards are unacceptable!

Before Severus could make a move, Sirius Black pushed aside the crowd of onlookers and led Lupine and Peter to stand in front of Potter, surrounding him and Lily in the middle.

"Haha, Snotlout..." Sirius's face twitched and he raised his wand, "You should be like a house elf...give me James' wand..." He paused, "Disgusting annoying guy! "

Severus shrugged and threw away the wand belonging to Potter in his hand. Looking at Sirius' arrogant expression, he didn't know what he was so proud of.

The two sides were in a stalemate, with no one giving in.

"Haha, it's so lively." Barty Jr. chuckled. With the two people he brought, the numbers of both sides were equal, and Potter's side had no advantage.

Sirius looked at his brother behind Barty, with angry fire in his eyes.

"Regulus, do you have to go against me! I'm your brother!" Sirius shouted loudly, ignoring even the hostile Severus. He pointed the wand at his younger brother, implying that he was asking him to Make a choice.

Regulus had a slight smile on his lips and looked at Sirius as if he were an ignorant child, "Brother? I only have an older sister and a younger sister, but I don't have a brother like you."

Regulus thought of the letter sent by his mother not long ago, and his hanging heart finally settled. Naturally, he could not clearly say that his father's method of expelling Sirius in his own name would not work. This would be considered jealousy, fear and fear. There is no room for his own brother; and the adult named him to give him leave for an audience. It must not be as simple as warning the Black family.

As the head of the family, her mother Walburga had too much to worry about, but her eldest son Sirius didn't appreciate it. She really destroyed the family emblem she made for Sirius this time, and even went to the Ministry of Magic to register that only Thunder Gulus was the only heir to the property, which truly erased all traces of Sirius' existence and deprived him of the possibility of returning to the family.

"Regulus, you have been studying dark magic for so long that you don't even recognize your own brother!" Sirius was not satisfied with Regulus's answer, and remembered the family's praise of Voldemort, and said bitterly, "What are you doing for Joining the Death Eaters, in order to serve as Voldemort's lackey, and for the suffocating family, it seems that you have sacrificed a lot!"

He glanced at Barty, who was in a protective attitude, and Andre, who was questioning Severus with concern, and curled his lips in disdain.

Regulus looked at his well-dressed and arrogant brother, and it was hard to imagine what he would look like after being deprived of his surname and all resources by the Black family.

He had no intention of fighting, and now he looked at Sirius with pity.

"Severus, look?" Regulus pointed at Potter's wand with his finger, and the meaning was self-evident.

Severus watched the show and threw his wand to Regulus.

"Thank you," Regulus said.

Severus nodded slightly, patted Andre's arm, and left without saying anything.

Before leaving, he glanced meaningfully at Lily, who was comforting Potter. He wondered if their relationship could be as harmonious and beautiful as in the original book.

[Hiss... Severus... why don't you fight back? ] The basilisk poked its head out of its pocket. Although it couldn't see it, it could sense it with its snake letter. [That Black just went to Gryffindor? It’s really rare...I think back then...]

Severus couldn't speak well outside, so he only responded by touching the basilisk's head with his hand.

Andre didn't have this worry and kept his mouth shut.

"Severus, are you going to confess to that Evans? And you're also dueling with Potter, hahaha, such an old-fashioned way of dueling..." Andre smiled teasingly, swiping his hands in the air. , "Look at how embarrassed Potter is, if Lupin and the others hadn't arrived, you should have thrown him into the Black Lake to take a bath!"

Severus took note of this method and thought it was pretty good, so he would try it if he had a chance.

"Have you read today's daily report?" Andre took out a piece of chocolate and stuffed it into his mouth, and said vaguely, "The Black family sent out a divorce letter from Sirius Black again, and also attached a letter from the Ministry of Magic. The seal and signature are really strange.”

Severus nodded in agreement, this was indeed strange.

The herbs in the greenhouse are growing well, and some are ready to be harvested.

After entering June, the weather in England did not become sunny. Instead, it rained lightly every three days.

Andre's owl exam was approaching day by day, and he had to spend several hours reviewing every night. Severus got up and read for a while while he was studying.

For the sake of his own sleep, Severus brewed a large pot of sleeping potion and drank some before going to bed every day to prevent being woken up by his roommates.

Andre had been spinning for several days, and his eyes were all black and blue. Lack of sleep made him almost fall asleep in Professor McGonagall's Transfiguration class.

Severus couldn't stand his behavior of seeking death, so he spent some time making him a review schedule and gave him some potions.

Holding the planning sheet, Andre felt like he had found a treasure. He shook the potion again and asked doubtfully: "What is this?"

"Easing Potions and Sleeping Potions," Severus replied, pouring more Glory Potion into the basilisk's mouth.

The basilisk spit out the message, curled up into a ball, looked at the emerald green scales on its body, and continued to sleep with satisfaction.

"Oh~ Severus, I really... don't know how to thank you..." Andre said with tears in his eyes. It would hurt his body to buy these with gold galleons. There is one It’s good to have a roommate who is extremely talented at brewing potions.

Severus looked away at his artificial stupidity and coughed twice.

"Go to bed early at night and don't disturb me." He pursed his lips and pointed at the schedule and potions. "You can take them to Barty and the others to see..."

Hearing this, Andre agreed with a smile, found a satchel, stuffed the things in it, and left with his homework in his arms.

After seeing the person leave, Severus pulled out the letter at the bottom of the book. It was a letter Penny sent via owl a few days ago, and he hadn't figured out how to reply yet.
