HP: Embrace the Darkness
Chapter 803: Can’t stand it, confess (page 12)
Aces reserved just enough time.
It took him a total of seven minutes to deal with Grindelwald and apparate to Spider-End Alley, with twenty-three minutes left.
Compared with bustling London, Spider End Lane seems like another world.
Sewage and garbage can be seen everywhere on the streets. Weeds grow on both sides of the walls. Sticky moss grows on the corners of the alleys. If you are not careful, you will rub your trouser legs.
The wind blew from the end of the alley and became cold, making the newspapers scattered on the ground rustle.
At this time, Asseth stepped into the alley.
The mouse ran out of nowhere, wet all over, bumped into the wine bottle, knocked the bottle away, and rolled over while polishing its leather shoes.
Aces paused in his steps and glanced down at the wine bottles and mice stained with sewage, his eyes a little colder.
The magic power moved at will, turning the mouse into stone and shattering it into pieces.
Bypassing the rat ashes, Asseth entered the scope of the curse.
Since he occasionally lived in Spider End Alley, the area around the house has become much cleaner. Not to mention rats, there is not even sewage. It is not as clean as Spider End Alley, and he feels more relaxed when walking than outside.
Thinking not to overdo it, Asseth did not go in directly, but found a corner to touch the bond.
Upstairs, Mrs. Lovelace finished a long conversation, drank tea to soothe her throat, and waited for Snape to answer.
However, after drinking a cup of tea, he still didn't wait for Snape's answer.
She looked up curiously.
Snape, who should have been concentrating on discussing countermeasures with her, seemed to have been attracted by something important. His body was tilted slightly, and his dark eyes frequently drifted out of the window. The hand resting on his leg unconsciously exerted force, and the veins drew winding lines on the back of his hand. meandering curve.
This man seems to be unexpectedly charming...
Mrs. Lovelace raised her eyebrows and looked away without trace.
The second before her eyes returned, she couldn't help but glance at the pale back of her hand.
As a mature woman with normal aesthetics and appreciation, she was able to find a unique charm in Snape.
This charm is certainly not physical.
But a certain quality.
A quality that can be manifested in body parts and movements.
For example, she had never seen Snape completely let down his guard.
Almost every time they met, Snape's back, expression and even micro-movements revealed his extraordinary sense and restraint. It seemed that nothing could shake his mind and cause him to collapse.
Like an ascetic who is always calm and self-possessed.
Such a self-possessed ascetic would occasionally reveal restrained emotional fluctuations, and the burst of color would be several times that of others, almost dazzling.
Scanning Snape's shirt that was buttoned to the top and the veins under his now expressionless face, Mrs. Lovelace gave herself a thumbs up for her extremely accurate assessment.
While Mrs. Lovelace was thinking wildly, Snape couldn't sit still.
He turned back calmly and tapped the armrest with his fingertips. The wooden armrest made a crisp sound, accompanied by a deep voice that reached Mrs. Lovelace's ears.
"I will consider what you said, but now we may have to solve your accommodation problem first. Walk out from here. There is an empty room at the end. If you can accept it, you can decorate it yourself."
Mrs. Lovelace stood up gracefully and bowed slightly towards Snape, "Of course I can accept it. After all, we don't have a choice, do we?"
After saying that, she walked out without hesitation.
She was not blind, so she could naturally see Snape's intention to drive people away, and had no interest in staying and becoming a villain.
Snape narrowed his eyes.
It seems this woman found out.
so what?
From the moment the other party was unwilling to carry out the Dark Lord's mission, he had the leverage to control her.
If he can't keep his mouth shut, he doesn't mind being a villain and sending the other person on his way.
Aces had always been very patient. Even though Snape never responded or urged him, he stood upright in the shadow and was forced to sense the position of the two light groups.
In the perception, the two magic light groups that were together just now separated without warning.
The magic light group belonging to the potion master stayed still, while the other magic light group went to the next room, shining back and forth.
They should be tidying up the room, Asseth thought.
Of course, he didn't have the habit of prying into his lover's privacy, but the distance was too close, and the two sources of magic were like light bulbs, which he couldn't ignore even if he wanted to.
Suddenly there were footsteps behind him.
Immediately afterwards, his shoulder was grabbed by a force.
The unique bitter smell of herbs from the Potion Master floated from behind, and Artes's eyebrows suddenly softened. Without any resistance, he followed the strength of his shoulders and turned around, looking into Snape's slightly panicked black eyes.
"you……"
Snape blurted out a slightly questioning tone, and when he found out, he forcibly reversed the question as if nothing had happened.
"Why don't you come in?"
It's a pity that he is really not suitable to lie to Artes. His thin lips were pressed into a straight line, his black eyes flashed with nervousness, and the strength on his hands became stronger, which was clearly telling Artes that he had a guilty conscience.
He seemed to realize that his behavior was too abnormal. He slowly retracted his hand and turned his back stiffly, his dark eyes staring at Asseth unblinkingly.
Such poor acting is nothing like a double agent jumping back and forth in front of Voldemort.
Artes's heart, which had been brimming with evil just now, instantly softened. He took the initiative to approach Snape and leaned pitifully against his lover's warm neck.
"I've been a little busy recently and haven't had time to meet you. It happens to be a while before the entertainment, so I thought I'd come see you first. The time is too short, so I won't go in."
This is not a lie.
It was true that he wanted to tease Snape, but he wanted to see him and have some comfort.
Snape lowered his eyes and saw the ruffled hem of Artes' clothes, convinced of his words.
"How much longer?"
"In about fifteen minutes, I still have to change clothes. I was in such a hurry just now."
Time is indeed short.
Snape raised his hand to rub Artes' head, feeling a crazy war between heaven and man in his heart. In the end, his heart that didn't want Artes to misunderstand prevailed.
He pondered for a moment, choosing his words carefully before speaking: "There is something... I haven't told you this whole time."
"What's the matter? If you don't want to say don't force yourself, you have your space, I understand."
Like a white tiger caressed by its owner, Artes rubbed Snape's hand. His voice was full of laziness, but his words were serious both inside and outside.
Snape was even more determined to confess.
"He assigned me a task, about..."
Snape really couldn't say the idea of increasing the fertility rate, so he could only change the words slightly.
"About increasing the number of students at Hogwarts."
Aces stiffened and almost laughed.
This kind of speech is too euphemistic. If you don't know it in advance, I'm afraid no one can understand it.
Snape also found out and suddenly changed his tune.
"He...let the Carrows have children, as well as all the Death Eaters."
After saying that, he nervously waited for Ass's reaction.
