Blessing Potion [Comprehensive British and American]

When Snape and Cyril set foot on British soil, there was a momentary magical feeling.

It may be that they are too relaxed and comfortable in China, the two of them do not work according to the daily biological clock; they often randomly choose a completely unfamiliar street to wander around; they sit down and eat something they have never seen before (this is Cyril)... It seems As long as there are each other by their side, then everything else is no longer a problem.

At this moment, facing the Ministry of Magic hurriedly, or wizards in suits and leather shoes or formal magic robes, the two of them had a sense of urgency that was incompatible in mentality.This time, the two of them did not take the Muggle plane for more than ten hours, and obediently chose the international fireplace.

"It's hard to imagine that I'm going to work in St. Mungo's tomorrow..." Cyril leaned weakly on the arm of the person beside him.

"Go to bed early tonight."

Snape tapped the punch card at the door of the international fireplace with his wand, and the passenger's identity information flashed on the sign when the two passed by.

The female mechanical voice sounded coldly: "Identity verification passed, welcome to the UK."

"How do I remember that there was no such link before?"

Cyril looked at this miraculous identity verification equipment and thought it was a bit advanced, it even showed the blood type and the material of the wand.

"I thought Benny told you."

Snape pointed with his wand at a swash letter on the back of the display panel.

————“M&M”————

"..."

Cyril tried his best to control his expression within the range of being "the big boss's son" and not being surprised by it.

Snape made a sarcastic expression: "It was installed uniformly after Azkaban escaped this time. Fudge thinks those people will use the international fireplace tunnel to escape from the country."

"...Oh. Then...that group of people have quite 'high' IQs...If I were me, I would rather smear some Mo Nan gel and swim abroad like Blake did." [107] The two walked out along the flow of people , Many people along the road saluted them with "attention salute".Obviously, after Ms. Rita Skeeter's literary creation and Snape's own marriage proposal announcement, the popularity of the two has skyrocketed, and the effect is comparable to that of some stars.

Cyril asked without looking sideways: "Shall we go directly back to Hogwarts?"

Snape glanced at him with a delicate expression: "Actually, we won't go back today."

Cyril also became interested at once: "Oh? Is there a situation? Where are we going?"

"Take you somewhere."

……

Cyril tried to open his eyes wide, carefully observing the small building in front of him, feeling a little dazed.

Just 5 minutes ago, his professor just said he was going to take him somewhere he thought Severus was going to take him for a romantic lunch (Snape: I can't believe you're still thinking about it).

Then the two of them appeared in front of this three-story light-colored small bungalow.

The walls of this house are light beige, the window frame is log color with a light blue edge, and the roof frame also has a sky blue wooden edge, the overall look is very fresh and lovely.

The garden is surrounded by a light-colored wooden fence, and you can see the small stone road winding forward in the yard and the short shrubs on both sides. There are a few clusters of particularly pink and tender flowers blooming in the round flowerbed.

The white fox boy looked around. There are other houses a little further away, each with their own characteristics and similarities. This place is neither overpopulated nor deserted. It looks like a natural magic village.

Farther away was a forest, and farther away there was a hill.

"Where is this?" Cyril asked the people around him.

Snape took out a brass key from his body, stepped forward and unlocked the courtyard door, and said, "In the southwest of England, near Godric's Hollow, the Dumbledores are also here. "[Note] Cyril's eyes sparkled: "Ah...the birthplace of the legendary Godric Gryffindor, and also the place where wizard goldsmith Bowman Wright created the first golden snitch!"

"Yes, there are many famous people here. I can show you around after seeing the house. There is a small square not far away, as well as churches and monuments. Anyway... it's quite lively."

"it is good."

Cyril followed into the yard, only then did he see a white stone birdbath in the middle of the flowers, the style was not "Snape".

Snape followed Cyril's gaze, coughed back with his hands in embarrassment, and explained: "The designer and builder I contacted Lucius, they said it's more...comfortable."

"I like it very much." Cyril said, putting his arm around the wizard.

"Go in and see?"

"it is good."

Snape stopped suddenly in the middle of the walk, and said with some hesitation: "...I didn't put any decorations in it, because I thought you might want to buy some yourself?"

"my pleasure."

Snape held Cyril's hand, and nervously put the other hand on the doorknob, and Cyril could even feel the wizard take a small breath: "This is just a preliminarily renovated house. ,if you……"

"This is our own home, Severus." Cyril gently shook the wizard's hand.

"Okay." Snape resignedly pushed the door open.

"As soon as you enter the door, there is a foyer, and when you walk in, you will find the living room...the kitchen is over there. I guess you like the kitchen counter facing the window, so I asked the builder to open a large window here..."

Cyril looked at the elegant decoration and followed Snape in.The lighting in this house is very good, obviously it took a lot of thought.Severus was right, he really liked a bright kitchen with big windows, so that the sun could shine in whether he was making breakfast or cutting fruit, and now he could still see the garden while standing at the cooking counter.

"The fireplace is here, the dining table... I chose light-colored furniture?"

"I like it so much." Cyril tiptoed slightly, and licked the wizard's side face.

Snape slightly relaxed the corners of his eyes, with a not-so-obvious expression of "benefit and pleasure".

"There are four bedrooms on the second floor..."

Snape was obviously very uncomfortable with the role of the narrator, and he always stopped talking halfway through.Even though he could talk eloquently in the Potions class, explaining to his lover the house he secretly let someone make... This is not within his professional scope.

"Four rooms?" Cyril blinked.

"...I think in the future maybe..."

Cyril didn't know what to think of, her face turned red.

"...Maybe you would like to bring your family or friends to stay."

"……Oh."

Snape looked at Cyril's somewhat vacuumed expression, unobtrusively pursed the corners of his mouth that were about to turn up, and continued: "I have specially vacated two of them, in the future you may be willing to decorate and treat children I don't have much idea about the room..."

Cyril's red face returned: "...Okay."

"The third floor is our bedroom, connected to a study, cloakroom and bathroom."

Cyril saw the big soft bed at a glance, and immediately let go of the wizard's hand and jumped on it.

Snape walked to a separate study and drew the curtains.

It was only then that Cyril discovered that the entire wall on the third floor was covered with glass.Snape explained as if he knew his doubts: "This is a special kind of magical wall, similar to Muggle one-way glass. It looks like a wall from the outside, but it looks like a glass wall curtain from us."

Cyril lay on the bed contentedly, dug out one of the pillows from the quilt, and hugged her in her arms.

"I don't even want to go to work, dear Mr. Snape. I just want to hang out with you here now..."

Snape forcibly ignored Cyril's horrible words, took out the two people's luggage from the space bag, and used his magic wand to organize everything into its proper place, and continued: "I transformed the basement into a The entire potions laboratory, with a protective spell, and the fireplace has been connected to St. Mungo's and the Hogwarts headmaster's office. When... it's resolved, we can reconnect to the Hogwarts office. You can tomorrow Go directly to the fireplace and come back to the fireplace at night. Remember, this is: Godric's Hollow 36 or Godric's Hollow Cottage."

Cyril raised his head: "Godric's Hollow Cabin? No one has used this name?"

"Fortunately, most wizarding families here name their houses after their surnames—including the Dumbledores, so we picked up a ready-made one."

Cyril murmured: "Amazing..."

……

Cyril took a shower and went downstairs to find that Snape was sitting on the sofa on the first floor talking to Dorje. 【176】The little elf Dorje has grown up. He is wearing a small dress like a small Chinese vest, standing in front of Snape with his big eyes clean and listening to his master's speech.

"Hi, Dorje." Cyril sat on the armrest of Snape's sofa and greeted the little guy cheerfully.

"Duoji sends hello to Master Cyril!" Dorji's voice was still high-pitched, with a little milky tone at the end.

"You grow really fast." Cyril leaned forward, reached out and touched the elf's head, and the elf narrowed his eyes.

"He said he would follow me, so I just let him come here. I just asked, Biscuit and Peas taught him very well, he can do most things. You can ask him to do anything you want .”

Snape explained, half-supporting his unsteady partner.

"Duoji will do a lot of things! Dorje is willing to serve the master!" Dorji said almost bouncing.

"Then let's make dinner together, what can you cook?"

"Duoji knows some simple Chinese food and steak, lamb chops and pork chops!"

Cyril wanted to stand up and go to the kitchen with Dorje: "Well, I want to eat fried rice, let's make steak for Mr. Snape! Let's go see what fresh ingredients are available..."

Snape stood up, pinning Cyril to the ground.

"Let me go and see, you sit here."

Cyril unceremoniously occupied the wizard's single sofa, and flicked his feet: "By the way, ask Dorji if he can make curry. I suddenly want to eat curry. Don't make fried rice!"

……

In the evening, Snape pulled the white fox out of the house and let him familiarize himself with the surroundings.

Cyril moaned and lay on the sofa, expressing that he didn't want to move when he was full.In the end, he compromised and turned into a white fox, wrapping himself warmly around the wizard's neck.

While Snape was changing shoes in the hallway, Cyril looked at himself in the mirror, bit his own tail and almost laughed out loud.

"Hahahaha, look, Severus! You look very rich. With this black shirt, you are really elegant! Hahahaha..."

Snape rolled up the sleeves of his long-sleeved shirt and sighed, "Cyril...do you know what I'm most worried about right now?"

The white fox hooked the wizard's chin with the tip of its tail: "What?"

Two words came out of Snape's mouth indistinctly.

Walking along the path, not far away, the steeple of the church stands like a landmark, so that people will not get lost.Cyril was angry at what Snape said just before he left the door, and deliberately used his tail and paws to lick the fabric of the wizard's shirt collar and shoulders.Occasionally, the wizard reached out to support the fox, which seemed to be too unsteady, and dared not have any objection to his behavior.

Until Snape walked into the small square in the center of the village, the white fox was still complaining: "...Who shed hair?! Who do you say shedding hair?!..."

The small square in the center of the village is neither too big nor too small. It is the busiest place in the whole village, where half-wizards and half-Muggles live together.

In the evening, there are all kinds of people walking and enjoying the shade. The Muggle villagers living here are not surprised by other villagers who occasionally appear and wear strange clothes. Everyone has lived together in harmony for so many years.

Snape's appearance with the fox coiled around his neck didn't attract much attention, and Cyril guessed that the wizard had used the Ignore Charm.

Seeing that no one was looking this way, the white fox Cyril stretched his neck and looked back and forth in relief.It looks quite convenient here, there are several shops along the street: selling fruit, selling vegetables, selling cheese and meat.Around the corner is a post office and a tavern.

The white fox flicked the tip of its tail happily.

Looking forward, there is a small church like a landmark. Visually, it is a Catholic church. The stained glass on the Gothic building exudes gem-like brilliance on the opposite side of the square.

There is a war monument-shaped building in the center of the square.Of course Cyril knew about this famous "monument" in the magic world.The books say it's enchanted and changes when a wizard walks by.

Snape led Cyril to the monument, and the monument really began to reorganize and move. It was no longer an obelisk full of names, but became a statue of three people.Cyril climbed up from Snape's shoulders and squatted obediently and solemnly.Cyril happens to have "seen" all three of them.One was a man with disheveled hair and glasses, and beside him was a beautiful, kind-looking woman with long hair, who held a baby in her arms. [Note] "Actually, the first time I saw you was when I came here to visit Lily's grave. At that time, you looked like a white cat or puppy, and the lump was only the size of my palm. I may be too That's bad...or I haven't seen a white fox, so I haven't thought about other things for so many years, and I didn't recognize you early...The cemetery is behind this monument, near the back of the church."

Cyril pressed herself against Snape's face, and said softly, "I think everyone will be grateful for what the Potters have done to the wizarding world. I also thank Lily for her blessing, allowing us to meet."

Snape turned his head tenderly, looked at the white fox sitting upright on his shoulders, and said a light topic: "In addition to Lily and her husband, Dumbledore's mother is also buried in the cemetery. and sister, and many, many other wizarding families. Hence the rumor on the Muggle side that the graveyard here is haunted..."

"Pfft, let's go and have a look." The white fox rubbed Severus's face with his furry face.

"it is good."

Snape stood in front of the tombstone, with a squatting white fox at his feet.

One person and one fox put a white lily in front of the tombstone.

The tombstone of the Potters is surprisingly plain. The two are buried together. There is no photo on the black stone tablet, but two names and a sentence are engraved on it: ———— "James Potter & Lily Potter will be the last one to be wiped out His enemy is death.”———

There is a white tombstone in the corner a few rows away from the tombstone of the Potters, which seems to be older than the one of the Potters: ———— "Where is the treasure of Candela Dumbledore & Ariana Dumbledore Where is the heart, there is also the heart." ———[Note] Two other lilies were placed in front of this tombstone.

"Come on, let's go home."

"Okay. Ah... tomorrow is another day."

"What time are you going to report to St. Mungo's?"

"Well, it seems to be nine o'clock in the morning, please stop, I can't walk anymore and let me climb up."

"...Did you get dirt on your paws? I saw you stepping on that clearing just now."

"...It doesn't matter, anyway, your collar has been scratched by me!"

The setting sun stretched the backs of one person and one fox very long.

Tomorrow is another day, and they have enemies to defeat, but luckily, the treasure is by their side.
