HP's Impassable Time

The summer vacation came, and after Lily waited for Snape's Hogwarts work to be completed, the two of them apparated back to Snape's home in Spider's End.

What Lily didn't expect was that Snape didn't have an owl!After knowing that he usually used the public owl in the school, Lily was stunned for a few seconds. She thought that all the professors in the school had owls, so what should she do with the thing she agreed to write to Allen?

"I'm impatient with owls! I'll take you to the mail center in Diagon Alley tomorrow, where there are public owls." Snape said when Lily and Snape had promised to send letters to their friends.

Lily sighed in her heart, and she could only do this: "Thank you, Professor! I see."

Snape couldn't bear to see Lily's listless look.

"I brought back some potions in the basement, I will use them at night after you deal with them later."

"Good professor!" Lily replied, in fact, she still likes handling potion ingredients, because it feels like preparing dishes before cooking.

Lily doesn't have amazing talent for brewing potions, but Lily's memory is not bad, and she has a famous potion master to teach herself, so she is relatively outstanding in the class.

In the evening, Lili took the initiative to take over the job of cooking, and also handed over the procurement of ingredients to Lili in the future.

Early the next morning, Snape and Lily went to Diagon Alley through the fireplace after breakfast, and Meow stayed at home to watch the house.

Lily would still be very interested in traveling with Floo powder, if it didn't stain her clothes.

Lily brought her wand this time, and she walked out of the fireplace after performing a Clean Up on the two of them.

They came out of a small potion material shop. Obviously, the owner of the potion material shop knew Snape, and after nodding with Snape, he went to greet other customers.

Snape took Lily directly to the mailing center, it was very big, there were rows of owls standing on the shelves, some were sleeping, some were staring intently at the customers passing by, as if they were saying "choose me, choose me, choose me". I!

Lily picked a strong brown owl, handed the letter to Alan last night to the owl, and paid it two Sickles of silver, the owl flew away with the letter in its beak, and then Snape After purchasing some daily necessities and some equipment for making potions, I returned to my home in Spider's End Alley.

In the afternoon, Lily went to Mrs. Luo Li's cake shop to report, and discussed with Mrs. Luo Li about Lily's working time. Lily worked five days a week, from [-]:[-] am to [-]:[-] pm, with a break at noon For one hour, during the break, Mrs. Luo Li will provide Chinese food, and the work content is the same as before-cleaning, greeting guests, and making simple cakes and milk tea.

Wages were also raised to five pounds, and he worked until the end of August.

Alan sent back a message soon, welcoming Lily's weekend visit. The content of the letter is as follows:

Dear Lily:

I am very happy to receive your letter. I welcome your visit. It must have been a very interesting weekend. I was surprised when you mentioned in your letter that you are temporarily staying at Professor Snape’s house. I hope you will not be arrested. The long venomous tongue attacked the whole body.But since you live in the professor's house, you should know how to use Floo powder. My home address is 304 ** Street, ** District

Fireplace No. 6 in Building No. [-], you can just come over the day after tomorrow. I also wrote to Matthew and Abel, and they will come back by then.

your allen

Alan's father was the director of the Department of Emergency Management of Magical Accidents, and his family was in good condition. His mother was the only daughter of an old nobleman and brought a lot of dowry.

As the only son, Allen is very favored at home, but Allen's character is not domineering and he always behaves like a gentleman. Reason for rarely interacting with Alan.

As soon as I arrived at Alan's house, the first thing Lily felt was that it was very warm. The middle of the living room was filled with furniture. In addition, there are many trinkets and many photos.

There are three floors in total, the first floor is the activity area, the second floor is the master bedroom, and the third floor is Allen's bedroom, study and entertainment room.

"Hello, Auntie! I'm Alan's classmate. My name is Lily Morin. Nice to meet you. This is a snack I made myself. I hope you like it." When Alan took Lily to meet his mother , Lily handed over the small snacks she made. The box was a magic gift box that Lily specially chose in Diagon Alley. There were moving bunnies jumping around the box, which was very cute.

"Thank you! Lily, I always hear Alan mention your cooking skills. I'm so blessed. Alan, take Lily up to play! I'll call you when dinner is ready." Alan's mother looked over 30 He is very kind when he smiles, and speaks softly, which is in line with Lily's understanding of the word mother.

"Okay! Mother." Allen couldn't wait to pull Lily upstairs after finishing speaking.

"Come on Lily, Matthew and the others are here."

After that, Lily played wizard chess and magic checkers together at Matthew's house, and visited Allen's collection of cards. When a few people were having fun, Locke, the house elf of Allen's family, came up and told Allen that it was time to eat.

"Alan, you didn't say that you have house-elves in your family before." Matthew always bluffed, but there was no malice at all.

"Yes, yes! It's like Abel didn't tell you that he had been to Malfoy Manor, and slowly you will find out more things we didn't tell you." Alan glanced at Matthew and joked.

"Yes!" Abel's noodle maker said, and Matthew felt that his blood bar must be empty now.

"Haha! Abel, you are too bad." Lily covered her mouth and whispered.

"By the way! Lily, have you gone to Malfoy's manor?" Matthew suddenly remembered Malfoy's invitation to Lily.

"No, I'm not very familiar with Malfoy, so it's not very good to send him an owl rashly." Lily said with a bitter face, she was also worried about this matter.

"Let's eat first! I'm hungry after playing for so long, it's not too late to think about it after eating." Allen patted Lily on the shoulder.

After dinner, a few people said goodbye to Alan and went home. Alan’s mother gave everyone a piece of cake she made herself. The exquisite packaging showed that the owner had put a lot of thought into it. After another thank you meal, everyone used Floo powder go home.

Lily came out from the fireplace, cleaned it up for herself and put the cake on the table. Looking at the kitchen, she knew that Snape hadn't eaten today. Lily went to the basement worriedly. The temperature in the basement was very low and the area very big.

It was Snape's research laboratory, where the three generations of improved versions of Wolfsbane Potion were produced.

"Professor? It's time for you to take a break." Lily saw Snape looking at the cauldron, lowering his head to write something in his notebook, and his sallow complexion became even more ugly.

Seeing that Snape didn't hear, Lily shook her head with a sigh, went back to the kitchen to heat up the milk, baked the bread and put it on the dining table, then went back to the basement, put on the protective clothing, and patted the professor lightly, Snape Just noticed that someone was coming.

"What's the matter?" While speaking, his eyes were still fixed on the burning pot.

"You go to eat! I'll help you look at it for a while." Lily said, Lily also helped Snape record before, so she is quite familiar with this work.

"The temperature should be kept between 85 and 10 degrees. After [-] minutes, pour the liquid into a medicine bottle and store it in a cabinet on the third floor." Snape thought for a while, took off his protective clothing and said .

This potion is almost finished, so as long as the temperature is maintained, there should be no problem, and it can be tested tomorrow.

***

The days were passed in an unhurried manner, and Lily still hadn't figured out how to write a letter with Malfoy, so Draco Malfoy still didn't receive any letter from Lily until more than half of the holiday passed, which made the original Draco, who was looking forward to Lily's arrival, has recently become irritable.

"Draco? What's the matter with you recently? Even your favorite broom rarely sees you to play, what happened? My baby?" Narcissa Malfoy asked worriedly.

"It's nothing, Mom," Draco didn't tell his mother about inviting Lily.

"Okay! Since Draco has his own little secret, mom won't ask." Narcissa said pretending to be sad, and secretly looked at Draco's expression.

Draco stepped forward and hugged Narcissa helplessly, "It's just that I'm a little upset recently, it will be fine in two days, don't worry."

"Why don't you hold a party in two days! You invite Pan Xi and the others to come to your house to play, and you won't be so upset if you play more with your friends." Narcissa looked at her son distressedly, since she went to Hogwarts From now on, his son had more and more worries, and he didn't talk to himself anymore. Although he was happy for Draco's growth, he was also a little bit disappointed.

Draco's eyes lit up, and he could take the opportunity of the party to invite Lily to his house as a guest.

Draco jumped up happily, hugged Narcissa, and kissed Narcissa hard on the face.

"Great mother! I'll write to her right now, the day after tomorrow! We can make arrangements for the party tomorrow."

Narcissa watched Draco bouncing up the stairs.

"Her? It seems that Draco's little secret might be a little surprise!" Narcissa thought.

"What did Draco do? You don't pay attention to your demeanor when you walk!" Narcissa was thinking about whether she would be Pansy or Daphne that her son said, when Lucius' voice suddenly sounded in her ear.

Narcissa looked at her husband beside her, leaned over and whispered, "My son has a little secret now, and I think he may be in love with someone's little girl."

"Oh?" Lucius put his arms around Narcissa, kissed her on the forehead and said, "Whose family is it?"

"I don't know, I'm just guessing. I'm going to have a little party for Draco and his friends the day after tomorrow, maybe I'll know who it is then."

So Lily, who came back from work and stayed at Snape's house to do her summer homework, received a letter from Draco brought by a fluffy brown crested eagle. Lily took some fresh meat from the kitchen and fed it to the crested eagle. Opening the letter, the crested eagle was eating meat and waiting for Lily's reply.

Lily Morin:

It is a great honor to invite you to my dinner party the day after tomorrow. I have invited many Slytherin students together, and I am waiting for your reply.

Draco Malfoy

Seeing that there was a suspicious hole in the brief letter, Lili looked thoughtfully at the hooked beak of the crested eagle. The crested eagle was a little hairy from Lily's look, and the hairs on its neck stood erect. rising trend (crested eagle: I’m just a messenger, what do you want to do?)

Lily picked up the quill on one side and wrote a reply, to the effect that she thanked Draco for his letter and would arrive at Yunyun on time.

After handing Xinjian to the crested eagle waiting aside, Lily went to the basement to find Snape who was making the potion.

"Professor, Draco invited me to a banquet at his house, what should I wear to be impolite, is there any precautions?"

Snape was adding mouse bile to the potion, and when he heard Lily's words, he trembled and added an extra drop, so - the quality of this potion could not reach perfection.

Snape was conflicted in his heart, because he seldom participated in such occasions, and almost always survived by relying on the teacher's robe. Every time he participated, he would either stay in a corner or leave after a while. In short, it was a sense of presence Super low, who knows what to wear for a child's banquet, so hard to say that I don't know!

In fact, it wasn't that Snape had a low sense of presence, but that Snape didn't give face and left before everyone had done a good job of psychological construction... They are also very innocent, okay? !

"As a Slytherin, do I still need to teach you these things myself?" The professor raised his eyebrows, simply cleaned up the laboratory table, and walked out of the laboratory quickly. The medicines this time are relatively safe and familiar, so The item of putting on and taking off safety clothing is missing.

Snape walked into the living room, took a book from a bookshelf near the door, and handed it to Lily who followed behind him.

"Read by yourself." After finishing speaking, she turned back to the basement, and closed the basement door with a bang, Lily's tongue clicked so quickly.

She blankly glanced at the "Basic Banquet Etiquette - Quick Course" in her hand. Lily was about to go upstairs when the cellar door opened again.

"Tomorrow I will take you to buy some decent clothes." Snape's low voice came through the crack in the door, and then there was another bang, and the cellar door was shut tightly again.

Lily had been wearing school uniforms when she was at Hogwarts, and since there were three sets that could be changed and washed, there was no shortage of clothes to wear.

During the holidays, there were two sets of clothes that Snape had prepared for herself and two old dresses worn by her daughter that Mrs. Luo Li had given her, so Lily didn't feel the need to buy more clothes, even when she went to Ellen's house. A pair of light-colored jeans and a short-sleeved T-shirt, Lily didn't think it was any different from what Alan usually wears, but Lily didn't know that the Malfoy family was a nobleman with a manor, and they were attending a dinner party. What should I wear? I have a previous question.

The next day

Lily rubbed her loose long hair irritably, which made the messy hair even more messy.

After getting the book last night, Lily studied it very seriously until very late, and she was still reading it in the morning. Lily has a good memory and the book is a quick guide. It should be easy to operate, but the problem is that every time Lily The movements required in the book are always awkward to death, either the body is stiff or the expression is stiff. Lily waved her hand, and the water mirror in front of her disappeared.

As for why Lily dared to use magic in Snape's house, it was entirely because of Snape's connivance. Snape told Lily that the Ministry of Magic generally used locations to determine whether little wizards used magic.

So the effect of casting magic in a group of muggles is different from casting magic in a group of wizards. Lily can cast small magic without using a wand, so during the holidays, except for going to Diagon Alley, the wand is usually Put it in the corner to collect dust.

Anyway, she used magic many times and didn't see the Ministry of Magic give herself an ultimatum.

"Never mind! It's better to be so stiff." Lily put down the book and went downstairs to wash her hair.

After everything was tidied up, Snape also put on the suit from two years ago.

Yes!They went to the Muggle world to buy clothes. Snape originally wanted to go to a wizard's shop to have them custom-made, but customizing usually takes time, and most wizards also know how to buy Muggle clothes.

"Sir, are we going to London?"

"Well! Let's go from Diagon Alley, and then go to Selfridges, there should be clothes suitable for you." Snape recalled the little information about the Muggle world in his mind.

Lily nodded. She is very unfamiliar with this city, but she knows that as long as she is good with the professor, she is not the little girl who was afraid to trouble the professor before.

Anyway, she owed too much to Professor Snape. As the saying goes, if you have too many lice, you will not be afraid of biting, and if you have too many debts, you will not worry about it. Lily thought: Get used to it!

Anyway, there is already a deep intersection, so why not let this intersection continue.

The two of them still came out of that potion shop in Diagon Alley, but this time the boss was not there, and someone else greeted them. It was only this time that Lily noticed that the name of the shop was Guli Weird Potion Shop.

The two of them took the jublieline from Swiss Cottage station and passed two stations and got off at Bond Street, the next stop on Becker Street. There were a lot of people in the Selfridges Department Store. Lily reached out and grabbed Snape's clothes and felt uncomfortable. Let go again.

Snape frowned and looked at so many Muggles around him, resisting the urge to draw out his wand, felt the little girl's small movements, sighed, and reached out to grab Lily's hand.

"Follow me, don't let me look for you everywhere."

Lily was a little nervous at first, but after listening to Snape's words, she responded with a happy smile, and gently held Snape's cold hand back.

One big and one small casually walked into a children's clothing store.

"Is this your daughter? What a cute little girl, how old is it?" The salesperson greeted her. She was about 20 years old, with fair skin, and her appearance easily aroused the favor of others.

Lily noticed that the muscles in Snape's hands stiffened unnaturally, and nodded to the salesperson with a smile.

"Yes! Eldest sister, my father took me to buy clothes to visit relatives. Do you have any good recommendations?"

The salesperson looked at Lily's cute smiling face and screamed in his heart. Although the father looked so serious, the daughter was so cute!I really want to hold her in my arms and knead... With Lily's favorability added, the salesperson quickly selected some clothes that suit Lily, and also recommended matching shoes and headgear.

In the end, Lily chose a matcha-colored dress with light blue patterns on it, a pair of dark gray leather shoes with a low waist, and cut air bangs. In the afternoon, the two had afternoon tea on the basement floor before taking a Take the subway back to Diagon Alley, and turn home from Diagon Alley.

After a day of shopping, Lily nestled on the sofa and didn't want to move when she came home, and it was rare that Snape didn't plunge into the basement to study potions, and sat on the sofa near the fireplace to rest.

Was that what Snape sat thinking about the salesman, daughter?Snape looked at Lily, who was nestling on the sofa and nodding her head, about to fall asleep. The newly cut hair was draped softly on her shoulders, and her bangs swayed as Lily nodded.

Compared with the first time I saw her, there was already baby fat on her face, and the whole face was much softer.

Seeing her master coming back, Miao Miao jumped onto the sofa lightly to find a place in the master's arms.

The basilisk was given a new name by Lily, Shasha, because according to Lili—it always has a rustling sound at the end of its speech, and because it was under the magic ring, it could only maintain a small figure, but when it When casting magic, it will make the person who sees its eyes stiff for a few seconds, giving it the ability to protect itself. Usually, Lily warns against biting people and then releases it to play by itself, but it is rarely at home.

Snape thought that raising Lily now is almost like raising a daughter, and Lily is very obedient and smart, and there is always a sense of peace of mind when getting along with Lily, Snape thought to himself that maybe he could go to the Ministry of Magic to organize a Adoption procedures.

You know, if the adoption procedure is confirmed, it is equivalent to recognizing Lily's identity. After Snape's death, Lily has the right to inherit all the property. According to Snape's situation, he should not have any other property in the future. child.

Snape drew out his wand, and a "pin" deer jumped out from the top of Snape's wand. Snape looked at the quiet deer softly, and seemed to see through it the green-eyed deer. that person.

Lily was awakened by the tickle of Meow's fur, rubbed her eyes and saw the shining silver deer standing in the living room, "Professor, what is this?"

Snape's expression froze for a moment, as if a secret had been discovered.

"It's the Patronus Charm," Snape said with a quick flick of his wand, and the deer disappeared from the living room.

"The Patronus Charm? What is it used for?" Lily asked curiously.

"This is a spell specially developed to resist dementors. If you want to learn it, I can teach you." Snape thought for a while and said, he learned from Dumbledore about the Ministry of Magic's request for dementors to live in Hoag The matter of Woz, although it is still an issue, if passed...

Lily saw Snape's face suddenly turn livid.

"Professor? What's wrong?"

"It's nothing, I'm going out today, go to sleep after dinner!" Snape quickly went back to the bedroom to change his clothes, and when he stood by the fireplace, he still reminded Lily, "I may These two days are relatively busy, you should be careful at home, and the basilisk will not let it wander around in the near future."

"Understood! Professor, I will take a good look at it." Lily nodded seeing Snape's serious expression.

Snape grabbed some Floo powder, the "Potions Office" and disappeared into a cloud of green flames.

Tomorrow is the day promised with Draco. Lily thought about it for a long time and didn't know what gift to give. She can bring more cookies made by herself, maybe there will be many people.

In the end, Lily found from the potion cabinet the medium potion she had made before and was appreciated by Snape. It was of great help to the fusion of the two potions, and the degree of fusion was higher than the traditional medium potion. Of course, it was In the case of using a Gudra grass leaf, if it doesn't grow before the start of school, it is estimated that Joanna will talk about it for a long time.

Wrap the potion well, make the biscuits tomorrow morning, sit at noon and eat them in the afternoon.

***

Draco invited several people he was familiar with, as well as Lily's friends Joanna and Diane, as well as Darren, Matthew, and Abel.In the morning, Draco got up early to pack himself, directed the house elves to decorate the venue, and went to the kitchen for the first time to look at the evening dishes.

Lucius and Narcissa glanced at each other, "It seems that Draco is very interested in this little girlfriend!" Lucius said.

"I found out at night, let's see which little girl made Draco pay so much attention." Narcissa took the words and said with a soft smile.

"I have something to do in the evening, so I should be able to come back very late. The family is lucky for you."

"Is it about Sirius?" Narcissa seemed to mention it unintentionally.

Lucius kissed Narcissa on the forehead.

"Don't worry, he hasn't been caught yet, I'm leaving." After speaking, he took the coat handed over by Narcissa, picked up the walking stick beside him and went out.

Narcissa stared at Lucius' back and disappeared at the intersection, and sighed lowly.

"Why haven't you come yet?" Draco looked at the fireplace. Abel and Matthew had already arrived, as well as Goyle and Crabbe.

Pansy Parkinson arrived in the morning, stuck to Draco for a day, and heard Draco whispering and asking: "Draco, who are you saying hasn't come yet?"

Pansy's loud voice quickly attracted everyone's attention. When Draco saw several people look over, he glanced at Pansy angrily.

"It's nothing, I mean who else is not here, it's going to start in two hours!"

"The Greengrass sisters haven't come yet. Blaise and Theodore traveled to the United States and won't come back this summer." Pansy thought for a while and said, "then there are no people." Pansy said German Laco often played together.

Draco stood up irritably, "Go to the game room first! If you want to play Quidditch, you can also. My family has prepared enough brooms. I'll go and see the venue."

"I'll go to the venue with you." Pansy stood up and planned to follow Draco. The others went to the game room under the guidance of the house elf. Draco wanted to stay alone, but Pansy followed Come here, so I walked around the venue symbolically, then returned to the hall and continued to stare at the fireplace.

A green flame rose, and Draco's eyes lit up suddenly, but it was Daphne Greengrass and her sister Astoria Greengrass who entered.

Draco stood up to welcome them with a reserved smile, Pansy went up to chat with Daphne, and Astoria obediently followed behind her sister.

After sending the three women to the game room, Draco returned to the living room, and threw the pillow on the sofa in some anger.

"Draco?" As soon as Lily came out of the green flame, she saw the scene of the little dragon throwing the pillow angrily, which was no less exciting than an excerpt.
