When the Hogwarts Express slowly pulled out of the platform, Cygnus Black was lying alone in the special box of the Malfoy family, his face covered with his unfinished Potions summer homework.

Adolescent boys grow fast, and after a holiday, he could barely lie on a comfortable train seat, but it is no longer allowed to stretch his body close to that of an adult male.However, no matter how awkward it was, he still had to curl himself up and lie down, then close his eyes, and take a nap while traveling for several hours.

Merlin knew what was so exciting about last school. Last night, at the age of 11, he could go to Hogwarts. His younger brother Sirius didn't want to go back to his room at all. He insisted on pestering him to find out about Hogwarts. gossip.By the time the stupid kid finally fell asleep, he had completely lost sleep.

"Hey! What are you doing?" The door of the box was pushed open from the outside, and Lucius walked in with a wand in his hand, with the satisfaction on his face after he had just taught the junior kid a lesson.After entering the fifth grade, this young master Malfoy became a Slytherin prefect as a matter of course.After all, in the entire fifth grade, no one else could compete with him except Signus, and Signus didn't need privileges, nor did he want to take on any extra responsibilities.

The young master Black, who has always gone his own way, tilted his head slightly, letting the parchment slide off his face, and glanced at Lucius with disgust: "Aren't you a prefect, why don't you just be a good part of those stupid kids?" nanny."

Lucius smiled and looked at him tenderly: "How can I bear to leave you here alone."

"Oh! All right! I'm not that little nympho Narcissa." Signus sat up slowly, snapped his fingers, and let the parchment slide back on the ground by itself: "Since you're here , then lend me your Potions homework."

Lucius simply handed in the homework: "You are always like this, and your graduation grades will not look good."

"Come on, talk like good grades are really of any use to me."

The box fell silent, and the atmosphere became a little awkward. This situation was very rare for the two heir friends of the Malfoy family and the Black family.Signus finished his homework, picked up the quill, and looked up at Lucius: "Don't make such an expression, I am destined to follow him, and you can escape?"

Lucius took a breath, squeezed his forehead, and said in a low voice, "This is different."

Signus sneered: "What's the difference, aren't they all stamped beasts, kneeling on the ground and calling him master."

"Look, this is the difference, you don't recognize him at all!" Speaking of "him", Lucius' expression was obviously agitated, but considering Signus' mood, he restrained his admiration Feelings, omitting a large section of praise.Out of respect for his friend, he didn't try to persuade Signus to change his impression of that person.

And just like many times before, Signus hummed very coldly, and said indifferently: "Why should I recognize a tyrant?"

"He's a descendant of Slytherin!"

The conversation that had happened countless times started again. Signus lowered his head and copied his homework, while answering formulaically: "You really don't know how pure the blood of the Gunter family is?"

"But they're still the only remaining Slytherins."

"So we have to just accept him?"

"He's still a Parseltongue."

"Parseltongue isn't everything."

Seeing that Lucius was going to continue arguing, Signus quickly interrupted with a wave of his hand: "Okay, let's stop arguing about this issue, there will be no result. I came here to hide from you, not to quarrel. "

"Yeah, Sirius is here this year too." After a brief silence, Lucius changed the subject cooperatively.

"And Potter. Merlin knows how they got together."

Lucius frowned: "I suddenly remembered a rumor. Of course, this rumor is extremely absurd, and I don't think there is any need to care about it."

Signus smiled. "I'm not sure if it's really just a rumor."

"you……"

"Don't worry about it, let him decide about Sirius himself, and he should be responsible for himself."

"Is this a joke?" Lucius twitched the corner of his mouth sarcastically, "If your younger brother really enters Gryffindor, the Black family will be responsible, not himself."

Signus shrugged indifferently: "Yeah, that person will definitely be very angry, maybe he will give my father a lot of heartbreaks. Maybe even me, who knows." He said with wrinkled eyes Lucius, who was frowning, smiled at him in a good mood: "Don't think too much, just follow me, I never expect a tyrant's forgiveness." Especially this tyrant is obviously becoming more and more irrational, maybe One day he will take the whole Slytherin with him to die.

It's a pity that most of the Slytherin parents have already been marked with the Dark Mark, and it's too late to get out.And he, as the heir of the Black family, has no chance to choose at all.

It was already night when the train arrived at Hogwarts.Lucius was going to take on the responsibility of being a prefect, and Signus got out of the carriage alone, and walked towards the carriage with several other fifth-year Slytherins.

His status as a default Death Eater makes it easy for him to gain good popularity within Slytherin. Even if he himself is not that keen on interpersonal communication, there are still some people who choose to gather around him spontaneously, as if he can get away from that People are closer.

Signus rested his chin on one hand, listening to the Slytherins showing off their vacations to each other in boredom, and then ended this boring and hypocritical conversation with the sentence "I haven't been anywhere, I've been at the lord's manor". A kind of ironic envy and jealousy.

If these people knew that he was not happy standing with those servants with the Dark Mark in that man's manor, I'm afraid it would be regarded as ignorance and flattery.

Without Lucius, every minute of Signus' life is difficult.This is not to say that his relationship with Lucius is so deep that they need to be together all the time, it's just that in the whole Slytherin, only Lucius is willing to mention that person as little as possible in front of him, so that he can breathe.

This year's school-opening dinner began with difficulty.Signus saw Lucius, who was sitting with the other prefects, raise his glass to him from afar, with a particularly nasty Malfoy smile on his lips, and simply turned his head to look for his brother who had just entered school.It didn't matter if he didn't look for it, but when he saw that stupid kid who was with the Potter kid, Signus only felt more headaches.

Don't you have a good thing today?

As the sorting began and Sirius Black was expected to be sorted into Gryffindor House, Signus began to believe that today might be the scariest day of the term.

When Sirius jumped at Gryffindor happily, his cousin Bella, who was engaged to Lestrange, screamed directly.Andromeda tried her best to restrain her emotions, but she didn't know whether she was restraining happiness or fright.Narcissa grabbed Lucius' arm with an expression on her face that was about to cry.The most goosebumps thing is that from the way Narcissa stares at him, it can be seen that the reason why she is about to cry is all because of today's sorting association when thinking of the Christmas holiday, "Poor Signus Hall Brother" will suffer.

A sentimental woman...Signus was playing with a fork in one hand, waiting for Lucius to appease Narcissa quickly, lest that disgusting gaze continue to fall on him.

However, before Narcissa let him go, Sirius on the opposite side recovered from the excitement of the sorting house, stood up, and waved vigorously towards him, expecting his response.

The eyes of the whole Slytherin, no, the eyes of the whole of Hogwarts were cast between the two brothers.Signus stopped playing with the fork, and smiled generously at Sirius. The stupid kid over there immediately showed off to his new friends happily, separated by the two long photos of Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw. The table could hear him shouting.

"That's my brother! See! He's on the Quidditch team! Isn't he so handsome!"

The Gryffindor girl next to him didn't know what to say to him, and then Sirius argued even louder: "You girls' aesthetics are really strange, isn't Malfoy's peacock more suitable for being a girl! "

Signus couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth, and glanced at Lucius, and sure enough, he saw his good friend staring at Gryffindor with a gloomy face.Unfortunately, he was five years older than Sirius, so he was too embarrassed to bully a first grader, so he could only stare at the kid's brother viciously and hungryly.Signus shrugged, not taking it seriously.

Sorting was drawing to a close, and the last new Slytherin came from a family they hadn't heard of, Snape.The Slytherins whispered to each other, wondering if he was a foreign pureblood.This futile inquiry didn't last long. When the freshman approached, everyone could see the second-hand robe on his body, and watched him go to sit next to Signus.

At this time, the emptiest area around this table is around Signus, but this vacuum exists because Signus likes to occupy a large space by himself, and how comfortable he is without the image of an heir. sit.The freshman sitting next to him was clearly ignorant of the innocuous ailments of Black's heir, and such ignorance would never have appeared in any pure-blood Slytherin.

Someone persistently asked him where he was from, and the freshman answered London, a Muggle city.So the last hope that "he may be from a family that has declined" was also dashed, and this year Slytherin did indeed get a mixed blood!

There was an undercurrent at the dinner table, and Signus didn't bother to pay attention to it, and the kid around him who inadvertently stepped into his territory didn't attract his attention.He finished dinner slowly, patiently chatted with his classmates about meaningless so-called cutting-edge fashion, and finally made it time to go back to the dormitory.He didn't follow the Slytherin army back in a proper manner, but he couldn't wait to go through the secret passage and took the shortest way he knew.

The former roommate Lucius has moved away to enjoy the prefect's single dormitory, and he just got a chance to occupy a double dormitory to himself.

This is simply wonderful, as long as he thinks that he will no longer have to fight for the bathroom with the stinky young master Malfoy every morning, he will feel refreshed and the air will be much fresher.

Signus thought that no one in Slytherin would be stupid enough to move into his dormitory, hindering his long-awaited solitude, but he forgot that this year's Slytherin had just ushered in a change, the mixed-race freshman Severus Snape, this mixed-race kid living in London doesn't know anything about Young Master Black.
