The fire in the quiet interior fireplace continues to burn.

The alarm clock that automatically makes noise announces the beginning of a new day.

The boy who was sleeping curled up on the carpet in front of the fireplace was awakened by the sound. His vocal cords felt painful as if they were torn, and his breath smelled of rust.

His voice was hoarse, he covered his head and groaned in pain, his muscles ached all over, and his bones were as stiff as if he had been poured into the concrete of Muggle society.

Regulus stood up with difficulty. It seemed that he had fallen asleep while sitting in front of the fireplace last night without changing his dirty clothes.

No, he had to get up quickly and clean up, because he had to go find Wenxiu Lord today, and he would be able to see Wenxiu Lord today.

Thinking this in my mind, I held on to the sofa beside me with my arms, supported myself to stand up, and walked towards the bathroom with a dizzy head.

He took off all his clothes, and considerately placed the headband wrapped around his neck on top of his change of clothes. Regulus stretched out his fingertips to lift the headband wrapped around the palm of his other hand.

The soft cloth was stuck with platelets mixed with blood, and dried and hardened into the unhealed skin at his wound.

Regulus saw that his palm was tightly stuck to the headband, and a strange sense of satisfaction arose deep in his heart. Without soaking it in water to soften it, he tore the junction between the two centimeters.

The shower head sprayed out a dense stream of steaming water, which soon created a mist in the bathroom that obscured the boy's body.

Regulus raised his head and let the water wash over his body, washing away all the exposed parts, leaving only the wounds on his palms and a circle of marks around his neck.

He raised his hand and pushed the wet hair that was sticking to his face back to his head. The thin hair slid across the wound on the palm of his hand. He felt a stinging pain and the floor tiles under his feet were marked with diluted red spots.

After quickly rinsing himself, Regulus turned off the shower, simply wrapped a bath towel around his waist, and walked out of the bathroom barefoot.

Coming to the sink, the damp heat from my body sprayed a layer of mist on the mirror in front of me. I stretched out my hand and wiped it across the mirror, and strings of water droplets flowed down along the traces.

Staring at himself in the mirror absentmindedly, 'himself' and himself looked into each other's eyes. The boy in the mirror raised his hand, scratching the red and purple marks on his neck with his nails, with a distressed expression on his face.

I was too careless last night. I can only choose a turtleneck sweater for class today. The dark circles under my eyes are also very obvious. It seems that I need to drink a bottle of beauty potion. I can't meet Wen Xiu with such a face.

Regulus leaned on the edge of the sink, the strands of hair on his forehead and the sigh in his throat cut off at the same time.

The young man ignored the constant pain in his brain and cast a drying spell to instantly make himself dry and refreshed, and his hair became fluffy.

She picked up the headband on top, cleaned it to make it soft and smooth, and skillfully wrapped it around her wrist to secure it before putting on other clothes.

The shirt could not be worn, so Regulus walked out of the bathroom door wearing only a pair of trousers and slippers and went straight to the closet.

There weren't many clothes in his closet, and most of them were in black, white and dark colors. He slid his fingers over a row of clothes hanging on the clothes rack and pulled out a black knitted turtleneck sweater.

The soft material stuck to his skin, outlining the boy's good figure. Regulus casually picked up a suit jacket, dressed himself, and put on a wizard robe to cover his good view.

After drinking a bottle of beauty potion and returning to the bathroom, the dark circles under his eyes disappeared, revealing his original polite and handsome appearance.

After you are satisfied with the decision, you can buy a few more bottles just in case. Your fingers scratch the fabric and rub the itchy marks.

Picking up his textbook and putting on his mask, the boy walked out of the dormitory.

It was as cold and gloomy as ever. Regulus' eyes fell on the closed dormitory door in front of him, and he complained in his heart about this corridor that could freeze people to death.

Passing by the door, the name tags of {Severus Snape} and {Vinciu Lord} were neatly lined up. Regulus turned his head away and stopped looking, quickening his pace.

The temperature continued to rise as we turned upward. When we pushed open the closed door of the lounge, the room was unprecedentedly noisy and chaotic.

With a barely perceptible frown, Regulus pushed open the door and was seen by other young wizards. When they saw it was him, their eyes sparkled with excitement and they waved to him to come over.

Giving the man a polite smile, Regulus walked towards him while keeping his eyes and ears open, collecting information from the lounge.

The wizard pulled out a chair beside him and said, "Black, come and sit down." He even kindly passed the dessert on the coffee table to Regulus who had just sat down.

"This is a dessert sent by my family. It's not available in Hogwarts. Come and try it."

Regulus had a puzzled expression on his face. This man was a first-year wizard and one of Vinciu Lord's followers. The two of them usually had a good relationship and could be considered friends on the surface, but this man had never shown such excitement in front of him.

what is it today?

He thanked the boy calmly, picked up the dessert that was placed in front of him and took a bite.

After accepting what the boy gave, he could then wait for the boy to state his purpose.

Sure enough, the man opposite was delighted when he saw Regulus eating the dessert, and he moved a little closer, as if he wanted to say something in private.

Regulus was not used to Wenxiu Lord and people other than his family getting close to him, so he leaned back slightly to keep a distance from them. The man did not get angry when he saw him, but stopped where he was and did not come closer, and told him his purpose with a gossipy look on his face.

"Regulus, you have the best relationship with Snape and Lord in Slytherin besides Malfoy."

"Well, what's wrong?" Regulus looked at him and nodded, and added in his mind, 'It's just that I have a good relationship with Wen Xiu. Snape is just an addition.'

The man took a sip of the lukewarm tea in the cup and asked, "So are they already together?"

Regulus tore off his disguise of gentleness and humility and said, "What nonsense are you talking about?"

The coldness in his gaze made the young wizard opposite him shudder, but he didn't realize it was because of Regulus's gaze. He pulled his robes together and continued to argue excitedly.

"I'm not talking nonsense. My friend was in the common room this morning and saw with his own eyes that a disheveled Snape ran out holding Lord."

"The look on their faces, tsk tsk tsk." He shook his head repeatedly with a teasing tone. If you didn't know, you would have thought that he had seen Severus and Vince Lord doing something indecent with his own eyes.

Other students passed by and heard it, and came over to chime in, "Yeah, yeah, there must be something going on between the two of them."

"My friend and I just analyzed it. The two of them must have slept in the same bed. That's why Snape noticed something was wrong with Lord's body. Otherwise, who would get up so early and go to look for his roommate without washing up?"

"Do you know?"

The person who was pointed at shook his head repeatedly.

"so……"

The faces of the people gathered together showed expressions that you know. Because of their own etiquette and upbringing, they did not show obscene smiles, but the meaning in their eyes was too obvious.

Regulus standing aside had a terribly gloomy face. Grell Nott noticed the expression on his face and observed a three-second silence in his heart for the few first-year wizards who were still grinning foolishly around the boy.

Several witches gathered together, and Narcissa Black's eyes flickered as she listened to the more wild speculations in their words.

In the corner, a wizard was sitting next to the woman. He had a shy and flattering look on his face and said something that had nothing to do with the hotly discussed topics in the lounge. He wanted to develop a closer relationship with this charming woman.

Eliza O'Lombia spoke perfunctory love words with ease. A few simple words and unintentional actions could make a man fall deeper.

The corners of her eyes turned up seductively, and her remaining attention was all focused on the crowd on Regulus' side, who were so excited that they couldn't even suppress their voices.

When the pretty face saw the ugly expression on Regulus's face, and thought of Sirius Black's expression which would only be uglier, she rarely showed a sincere smile for the first time in a while.

The gorgeous red roses bloomed, and the wizard next to the woman was stunned and had a physiological reaction instantly.
