HP Demon's Silence

Potions Office.

Snape crossed his arms, raised his eyebrows and watched a certain golden peacock who always loved to be clean stayed motionless in the fireplace, indifferent to the dust all over his body.

According to the past, Snape would definitely seize the opportunity to sneer, but he did not forget Lucius' original intention of going to the Slytherin lounge. attacks of an extremely egregious nature.Otherwise, what could make Lucius forget about maintaining his perfect image, other than something to do with his family?

Snape frowned tightly, his mind turned quickly, and he began to think about countermeasures.He certainly cared more about his godson than Harry.In his opinion, as long as Harry still had a life, everything else was out of his consideration.After all, Harry looks so much like James Potter, it is disgusting to look at from a distance, he can resist throwing a fuchsia in the past, Harry should thank Merlin.So when he saw Harry lying in a pool of blood, the overwhelming anger was gone when he confirmed that his life was safe. If the murderer was really Draco, Snape would definitely choose to protect this old friend Dear son.

This matter can be big or small, Snape can pretend that he didn't see it, the key is whether Harry knows what happened, but this can only be found out after Harry wakes up.And once he woke up, things were out of hand.

At this time, an urgent inquiry interrupted the thoughts of the hard-working Head Slytherin.

Lucius finally recovered from his contemplation. He stepped out of the fireplace, flicked his robe casually, and said hastily: "Severus! Show me the detailed information of the transfer student you mentioned to me. .”

"..." Snape squinted at him.This topic doesn't seem to be the current focus, does it?

Lucius walked around in front of him twice, snapped his fingers, and said in response to the house elf who appeared, "Give me a cup of lemon honey—oh, Sev, do you want a cup too?"

"..." Snape continued to squint at him.This family!From old to young!Everyone loves sweets!Why didn't they recognize Dumbledore as a grandfather?By the way, there is also the vampire who just transferred here with only sweets and no brain. If she and Draco get together, the four of them will form a perfect family.

However, what Lucius asked for was lemon honey instead of coffee, which meant that he was in a good mood, so what happened to his expression just now?Isn't he worried about Draco?

The house-elf soon delivered the lemonade.Lucius sat down on his own, occupying the potions professor's seat.Snape sat down opposite him, and said with a black face: "The information is with Dumbledore, Mr. School Manager, I'm afraid it's easier to get it than mine with your authority."

Lucius took a sip of his drink, and finally recovered his demeanor: "Oh, you're right, then can you describe her appearance and the name of her guardian to me?"

Snape's heart trembled, Lucius asked, did he already discover the connection between Lachesis and the blood race?He thought carefully, and said slowly: "Black hair and green eyes, the guardians are Muggle rich businessman Randy Philos Troy and the fallen pure-blood nobleman Carroydrian Garza. There is no blood relationship between them, she is Adopted."

"Pfft——" Lucius was drinking a drink, and when he heard this, he was so caught off guard that he sprayed his old friend in the face.

Snape's face instantly became as gloomy as a black lake.

"Ahem, I'm sorry, Sev, clean it up!" Lucius threw a spell casually, dropped the crystal cup, and muttered to himself thoughtfully: "Well, that must be her daughter... Strange, could it be that the name Ovelia Lachesis is a family inheritance, so every generation uses the same name?"

Snape felt that he was more patient than ever tonight, he gritted his teeth and asked, "... Lucius, what are you talking about?"

Lucius smiled in a good mood: "Oh, dear Severus, I found news about an old friend who has been missing for many years! I think Sissy will be very happy too, thank you so much!"

At this time, Lucius' face suddenly changed, looking serious and calm: "However, I can't tell you who she is, and I hope you will firmly protect the memory of tonight, no matter who you are serving now, as long as you If you have to go back to Hei-Master, this memory will put you and me in danger. Do you understand?"

Snape, who was hooked to the end, snorted coldly from his nose, and said disapprovingly: "If I understand correctly, Lucius, what you mean is that I can't do what your Occlumency can hide arrive?"

"No, the Occlumency I've seen so far can be counted with one hand, and of course I'm not among them." Lucius said quickly, "However, Occlumency is not foolproof. It always has a way to break it. And I have another set of secrets that even the master can't crack. For this, if you want, Sissy and I can teach you, but not now. You know, the gate of Malfoy Manor Always open to you."

Snape looked at his friend for a while, and finally nodded coldly: "Okay."

At this time, the door of the office was knocked.

"It's Dumbledore," Snape said. "Come in."

Lucius smiled faintly, still sitting still on the ground, fiddled with the quill on the table with downcast eyes, as if it suddenly became so interesting.

The gray-bearded and greatest wizard of the century, Albus Dumbledore, walked in with a kind face as usual, but his expression was more serious than usual, at least not smiling.He took in the situation in the office at a glance, with a look of surprise on his face: "Oh, there are old friends here, dear Lucius! I'm so glad to see that your relationship is the same as before, as if everything is still 20 years ago-yes , I clearly remember that my beard was still black at that time."

Only then did Lucius stand up slowly, and said with some regret, "Yes, dear principal. However, time passes so fast, and none of us can keep it."

Dumbledore's wise blue eyes glanced quietly at Lucius from under the half-moon-shaped lenses, and said: "But we have to admit that time has left us with a lot of inspiration-of course, it never looks back. About In this regard, our lovely Harry has a lot of feelings, well, speaking of which, Severus, this is what I came here for. According to the report from the reliable Mrs. Pennrad, little Harry has woken up."

"Oh." Snape raised his eyebrows, "very good. Then, isn't his most urgent task going to sleep quickly to repair his damaged brain?"

"Uh... my advice is basically the same as yours - except the part about the brain, of course - but little Harry seemed so desperate that he nearly toppled the hospital wing. I think we should maybe go and hear what he thinks say what."

Snape's eyelids twitched, and he glanced at his friend imperceptibly. Seeing Lucius handling the staff calmly, he let go of the stone in his heart.It seemed that the matter really had nothing to do with Draco.

"As for Mr. Malfoy." Dumbledore smiled cordially: "As a school manager, you should also learn something about this vicious attack. Maybe you would like to go there with us?"

Lucius raised his eyelids indifferently, raised his hand to rub his temples as if weary, raised his chin slightly, and smiled impeccably politely: "Oh, thank you for your kindness, Dumbledore." He dragged his tone, "But I believe you I can handle it very well, and I have to hurry up and reserve energy for tomorrow's work. You should really see, the papers on my desk are almost piled up."

Snape secretly rolled his eyes at this obvious lie.

"Ah...of course," Dumbledore expressed his understanding. "The Ministry of Magic is like this. There are endless things to do every day, so my old bone is suitable for such an idle place as Hogwarts. Since So, let's go first, Mr. Malfoy, please go ahead."

Lucius nodded slightly.

After the two left, Lucius frowned slightly: something was wrong with Severus just now, and he seemed to be very concerned about his reaction.Could it be that he asked himself to go to Draco because of this matter?However, there is nothing wrong with Draco!

Maybe Severus made a mistake... Thinking so, he walked into the fireplace again: "Malfoy Manor!"

***

As for the Room of Requirement, Draco never felt that it was worthy of the name. In the final analysis, it was just a room with advanced transfiguration and advanced illusion, and it could not really satisfy the wishes of those who came.However, since it is just a room, Draco will not expect more. After all, in Hogwarts, there is no other place as hidden as the Room of Requirement that can provide enough space for practice. .

So when he pushed open the smooth door calmly like every night in the past three years, and saw a black-haired girl with ribbons all over her head, he thought he was in the wrong place, If it wasn't for Bai Yiza who was standing next to him and gave him a reproachful look with those familiar rose red eyes, Draco might have said sorry and closed the door directly to go out.

The truth is, Draco didn't go out, he just stood there, thinking in a daze: "Merlin, it turns out that the Room of Requirement can really see the desire in people's bottom, oh no, how can this be called desire? Although I am indeed curious to death about the stories about Ovelia that my father told me, and I do have a certain degree of affection for Ovelia, but I don't think about her all the time!"

Yes, Young Master Malfoy took it for granted that Ovelia in front of him was his illusion, because it was too illogical, although he vaguely felt that Ovelia was different from ordinary people, even very mysterious , but this kind of conjecture is only on the intuitive level, who would have thought that she would be related to the legendary blood race?

Bai Yisa is a vampire.This is something Draco has known for a long time, and it is precisely because of this that he is willing to give her part of his trust, because the vampires are so proud and powerful. Compared with humans who often appear cowardly and greedy, Bai Yi Sha will not sell herself for a little profit or to be threatened.

But Ovelia, the hallucination girl, spoke: "Draco!" She called out in that beautiful voice, then stood up, ran to him, and looked up at him with a smile.

Draco suddenly felt a fresh fragrance rushing towards his face, it was a unique wind and snow smell that only belonged to Ovelia, he found his shadow reflected in those green eyes, besides , and nothing else.This feeling was too real and unbelievable, he murmured involuntarily: "...Oviria?"

The memory was touched for a moment, as if he had seen such eyes somewhere before, but the blurred picture was fleeting, and when he deliberately recalled it, he couldn't find the clue anymore.

"Hmm!" Ovelia responded, tilting her head.

The platinum boy looked blank, his gray-blue eyes were a little confused. "This doesn't seem to be a hallucination," he thought, "but if it's not a hallucination, why did she appear here in this posture, prying into my long-standing secret?"

Olivia knew that he hadn't reacted yet, so she waited quietly on the spot, she felt that her current height was simply too suitable, as long as she raised her head and moved a little closer, she could kiss Draco's lips.

The distance between them was so close that Ovelia's urge to jump forward was stronger than ever, but considering that for the current Draco, things must have a gradual process, she still forcibly endured it.She thought, sure enough, the one who chases people is always more painful, but compared to what he did for her, compared to that long time, what is this patience?

Bai Yisha, who was ignored by the two people at the same time, stood aside with a face full of horror, she couldn't believe her eyes, oh, of course it wasn't because she saw obvious shaking in Draco's perennially inattentive eyes, but because , she actually saw what humans call love in Ovelia's bright eyes!

Although Bai Yisha had a premonition when she saw the shrunken version of Ovelia that appeared in Hogwarts, but at this moment, she was still shocked beyond words.

"Oh my God!" Bai Yisa thought in a daze, "Could it be that she paid so much attention to Malfoy and helped them many times because of me, a cheap apprentice? Draco, Draco... who is he? Is he the reincarnation of that person? No, it's impossible, Lan Luosi clearly said that that person is dead, not even a soul dregs left, it is absolutely impossible to enter reincarnation."

No matter how Bai Yisa felt, Draco would never know. He was just dazed for a while, and then he regained the smile that belonged to the Slytherin prince, and then made full use of his condescending advantage, with a slightly She stared at the black-haired girl with mocking eyes: "Oh, Ovelia, if you are not a phantom I imagined, then you are the person Bai Yisha will introduce to me. I think it is necessary for me to give you a kind reminder , as a reserved lady, she shouldn't look directly at a person of the opposite sex with such fiery eyes, it will cause the other party to misunderstand what she shouldn't have."

Ovelia blinked her eyes, thinking that there was no misunderstanding, but she heard the deliberate alienation and slight rejection in these words, bit her lower lip lightly, and finally took a step back after thinking for a while , distanced himself from him.

"Bai Yisha, what's going on?" Draco felt that he could finally breathe normally, so he turned around and asked.

Seeing his ignorant attitude, Bai Yisha immediately became furious, but she received Ovelia's restraining eyes in time, and finally she didn't get angry, but said angrily: "As you can see, I will send you The reason why I called here is to introduce Ovelia to you. She is my friend! Well, now my task is completed, brat, you can figure it out, I will go first."

Then she turned to Ovelia, the expression on her face changed instantly, becoming gentle and harmonious, and said with a smile: "Your Excellency, it's nice to meet you, then, I'll go first~ I wish you a happy mood!"

Ovelia smiled sweetly and waved her hand.

Draco: "Huh? Wait..." However, Bai Yisa has already walked into the disappearing cabinet, and she didn't even bother to give him the last look.

So there were only the two of them left in the Room of Requirement.The platinum boy was very embarrassed, he hadn't felt a similar feeling for a long time, but at this moment, for some reason, he just felt uncomfortable, his whole body was itchy from the scalp to the soles of the feet.

Ovelia looked at him, and was also very distressed. She suddenly didn't know what to say. Many words came to her mouth, but she was forced to say nothing. "Oh, if I knew this, I should have accepted Karuo's proposal and asked her to seal my memory... If I let everything start from the beginning naturally, wouldn't this situation happen? I was too anxious... ..."

For a while, no one spoke.

The silence lasted for a while, and Draco spoke first. He smiled apologetically and said, "Ovelia, is the reason why you are so silent because of what I just said? If that's the case, I'm really sorry. Please believe that's not my intention. I... I think you're a good girl, but I already have Alexandra and I have more important things to do, you know what I mean?"

Olivia looked at him with wide eyes, and when she came into contact with that sincere gaze, she suddenly understood something, maybe just as Langlos saw from the book, one person is alienated from another, not necessarily because of Hating each other may also be out of protection.

So she said tentatively, "Draco, are you protecting me?"

The platinum boy was taken aback, his gray-blue eyes showed a hint of surprise.

Ovelia smiled: "If that's the case, I'm really happy! Because being protected by someone is a very happy thing."

Ovelia didn't wait for his answer, and changed the subject: "But, Draco, do you know? Everyone has their own mission in existence, but some people know what it is from the very beginning. , some people don't understand until the end. Compared with the latter, those who know in advance are undoubtedly unfortunate, because they have to bear everything alone under the eyes of others who don't understand..."

Speaking of this, Ovelia saw Draco's shocked gaze, knowing that he understood, she smiled brightly, and said sweetly: "However, you are a little bit lucky, because I happen to be your kind , and know what happened to you, I know more about you than you can imagine. But just as you can't tell Lucius and Narcissa, Blaise and Pansy, there's a reason I can't. Would you like to believe Me, let me be your friend and help you by your side?"

"... Just like you once helped me." She added silently in her heart.

Draco listened blankly. When a person has personally experienced the absurd thing of rebirth, his mind will be more broadened. If he had heard such ambiguous and unconstrained rhetoric 13 years ago, he would have sneered and never He didn't hesitate to throw Avada Kedavra in the past, but now, thinking of the strange sense of familiarity she brought him, and thinking of her mysterious identity, he actually believed it a little bit.

The same kind... What a weird and warm word this is, why Ovelia always looks at him like that, and can he always be easily moved by her eyes?

Reason told Draco that he should refuse, and he shouldn't use his misfortune to burden her.But for 13 years, he lived alone in a world that only he knew, he was really lonely.

Then he heard his own voice say, "It's an honor to be your friend, Ovelia."
