[HP] look at you

Snape, of course, protested later.

"I don't think it is necessary to participate in such a boring activity." He wore a trademark disdainful expression.

"But Sev, this is our first Halloween together." Lily looked at him with wide-eyed eyes.

In front of Lily, he was immediately KO'd because his defense was negative.

Since the three brothers were originally wizards, they only needed to shorten their hair and add some decorations on the outside of the wizard robes to show their identities.

Mary is the eldest, holding a staff transformed from a branch in her hand, a flagon on her waist, and a beard around her mouth.As the second child, Olivia picked up a random stone and held it in her hand. Lily disliked her for being so uncharacteristic, so she set up a circle of will-o'-the-wisps around her, indicating that the second child committed suicide in the end.Lily was the third child, and she wore the invisibility cloak Olivia gave her, revealing her head.

Snape put on a large cloak over the original wizard robe, the hat covered most of his face, and he also wore a hideous skull mask inside.

The three girls looked curiously at their own short hair in the mirror, and they all thought it was very handsome. Looking at Snape, who was tightly wrapped from head to toe, they all agreed that he was very cool.

Snape just felt that he was being played.

On Halloween, the sweet smell of pumpkins wafted in the air, and basically all the students had no intention of going to class, sitting on pins and needles in the classroom.After class, everyone went back to the dormitory to dress up, and everyone hoped that their ideas would be unique.

Since Lily and Olivia were sitting on the long tables of the two colleges, almost no one could see what they were playing.

Lily was pestered to ask if it was Nick who was almost headless in cosplay, which made Nick quite proud, and the whole banquet repeatedly broke off his head to demonstrate to everyone.

James kept leaning closer to her: "Evans, I also have an invisibility cloak, it's...the kind that won't fail, I can try it on for you."

The annoyed Lily had a cold face: "Thank you for your ostentatious generosity, but my sense of existence is not so strong that I need two invisibility cloaks to cover it up."

He was still chattering, and she directly hid her whole body in the invisibility cloak, showing her impatience with him by disappearing.

Olivia stared at the bats flying above her head and the pumpkin smiling strangely the whole time, wondering whether these bats were real or fake, and at the same time thought of a certain person nicknamed "Old Bat"— —Snape next to him was unmoved by the excitement around him, and was quietly eating fried pork cutlets.

She had long discovered that he was a bit of a partial eclipse, and he didn't move much except for his flesh, which was also understandable. Compared to his thin and pale appearance on the train, he looked much stronger now, with a little blood on his face.

His hair is still a bit oily, but it’s not as greasy as it was seen on the train on the first day. It can be seen that he often washes his hair at school, but in terms of his hair quality, this frequency Some are not enough.And he doesn't seem to have had his hair cut yet, it's a bit too long for a boy.

She smiled secretly, indeed she looked more and more like a little bat.

Snape caught her gaze and turned to give her a questioning look.

Olivia said casually: "It seems that there will be a ball in the cellar when I go back to the cellar later. Do you know ballroom dancing?"

His face immediately turned ugly.

"I don't know this..." He seemed disgusted and embarrassed, "useless social skills."

"If you don't plan to spend time on this kind of group activity, it doesn't matter if you don't learn it." Olivia didn't think it was a big deal either.

Snape pursed his lips and said nothing, took a knife to cut up the pieces of meat on the plate.

She understands.He actually wanted to learn something, but he couldn't bear to speak.

I will suffer at the cost of saving face.She rolled her eyes.

"Sev, you can't keep learning things you don't like." Lily who sneaked into their side spoke abruptly, and Snape, who was drinking pumpkin juice, was choked and coughed loudly.

Olivia saw that the cloak on his back was a little dented, probably Lily was patting him on the back.

Snape blushed slightly, and argued, "But Olivia isn't happy about making potions either."

"But at least she gets an E."

"She wouldn't have gotten an A without my help."

"I already have two O's in my name." Olivia, who was used as an attack weapon on both sides, said with a sneer, "I have to save some life for other students."

Lily, who was wearing an invisibility cloak, poked her in the face because she couldn't see herself.

"How rewarding it is to dance together at the festival anyway."

"Really? I don't think so." He whispered.

"I haven't danced with you, Sev."

Snape was KO again.

Lily and Mary, who had first-class mobility, greeted them, pulled Snape and Olivia, skipped their internal activities and ran to the Astronomy Tower, full of energy, preparing to teach Snape how to dance.

The astronomical tower is designed for stargazing, and the classrooms are empty and flat. The roof and the entire wall are made of transparent glass, and you can see the stars all over the sky when you look up.

Lily took Snape's hand and told him the most basic gait movements, but he was afraid of stepping on her feet, and he was too careful with every step, looking stiffer than sitting on a broom.

Olivia's face turned red when she saw Snape being led around by Lily. This poor little boy couldn't play well with Gryffindor when faced with the close contact with the girl he liked. [-]% of the combat power of the verbal sword.

It was already very difficult for him to control himself not to run away in embarrassment, and the perplexed girl on the other side was still forcing him to remember the correct steps.

Hey, this is youth!Olivia just sat on the ground casually, leaning her head against the glass wall, looking at the sky for a while, and the two of them for a while, feeling emotional in her heart, and also made a merciless mockery of Snape's string puppet posture .

"Left foot, right foot, left foot, right foot, wrong wrong, two steps forward." She played twelve points of the meanness she learned from Snape, "Severus, I think It looks like you have been cursed with a leg-stiff-stop-lock leg spell, otherwise I can't imagine how a person can step on the right foot with his left foot."

The voice squeezed out from between the teeth: "Shut up."

"How about I give you a tarantella dance? It shouldn't be any worse than it is now." She continued to be annoying.

Snape flung his hand away in embarrassment and glared at her fiercely: "I want to give you a grin right now."

"Olly." Lily scolded, "Sev did a good job, stop teasing him."

"Gentle and kind Lily." Olivia shrugged.

She stood up and patted the ash on her body, stepped forward to push Snape away and hugged Lily, raised her eyebrows at him provocatively, "Look at it, you should hug like this when dancing, instead of shrinking back like there is a big piece of dung in front of you." .”

She deliberately rubbed Lily's face: "Such a cute little beauty, who would be willing to exchange partners?"

Lily giggled amusedly.

Olivia took another two steps back, bent down gracefully, put one hand on her chest, and stretched out the other to Lily: "Beautiful lady, do I have the honor to invite you to a dance?"

"Of course." Lily raised her chin cooperatively and gave her her hand.

At this moment, Lily has already released the deformation of her hair, her long red hair is loose, and it is slightly raised every time she spins.Olivia still kept her short hair, with a straight back and skillful gait, she really looked like a handsome boy.

The two of them slowed down, and Lily was still beating the beat, telling Snape next to her what to pay attention to from time to time.After demonstrating it with Olivia, she pulled him over and continued to teach him. Even though he made frequent mistakes, she stuck out her tongue and made fun of him, and she was not impatient at all.

Snape's awkwardness at the beginning was gradually eliminated under Lily's reassurance, and he began to practice seriously. Olivia next to him was responsible for correcting his movements, raising his arms from time to time, and patted his waist straight.

In the tower under the starry sky, the shadows of the three people are constantly interlacing and overlapping.

After Halloween passed, the weather began to cool down, and the freshmen were completely accustomed to the study life at Hogwarts, and they no longer made a fuss at every turn—this made Peeves lose a lot of fun—they looked the same as Gao There is no difference between the grades of students.

Olivia's exploration plan is coming to an end, she has visited almost every corner of Hogwarts castle - except the headmaster's office.

She can run to each professor's office under the pretext of asking about homework, and she can sneak behind the students of other colleges and sneak into their lounges-by the way, the invisibility cloak is a weapon for home travel and murder-but the principal's office is not so A place that can be easily entered and observed.

In fact, if she honestly explained her thoughts to Dumbledore, Dumbledore would definitely let her in according to Dumbledore's personality, but she didn't want to deal with this overly smart old man for the time being.

Olivia is free and easy by nature, and never dwells on one thing for too long.She quickly decided to give up that place and treat it as a small easter egg, which she would open later when she had a chance.

In the days that followed, Rio Livia did not relax, but seemed even busier.

She was always holding a lot of paper to write and draw. After class, she either spent time in the library or asked Professor Flitwick about various spells.

Flitwick welcomes all students who seek knowledge, and he unabashedly admires Olivia.

"There has never been a first-year student who is interested in these boring and complicated theories." Flitwick was amazed by her excellent charm level, and was also the first to perceive her intentions, "From what you asked about From the perspective of alchemy and ancient runes, I guess what you want to do?"

Olivia readily admitted: "Yes, I like to make some interesting magic items myself."

Flitwick's gentle eyes shone with wisdom, and he looked at the smiling little girl with encouragement, "Be brave and do what you want, I can help you with spells at any time. As for I am not very professional in alchemy and ancient runes. I can recommend the professor of ancient runes, Professor Donan. This is a course that you only take in the third grade, but I think Donan will be very happy to teach you in advance. You. For alchemy, I think you can ask Dumbledore, he is the winner of the Gold Medal for Pioneering Contributions at the Cairo International Alchemy Conference, and even the great alchemist Nick Flamel has worked with him."

Or are you going to find Dumbledore?Olivia was a little hesitant, but she also knew that alchemy was a very profound and obscure subject, and there were very few people studying it. Except for Nick Flamel, the most powerful alchemist in the world should be Dumbledore—of course, a certain A big devil may be on the same level, but he should be half mad by now.

Olivia quickly changed her mind, thanked Flitwick, and asked him to introduce herself to Donan and Dumbledore.

Donan, the ancient rune professor, was a very ordinary young man, but Olivia found that she couldn't describe his appearance. She tried to stare at his face, but couldn't concentrate, as if there was a voice in her head Said: "Why should you pay attention to such an ordinary person?"

She frowned uncomfortably.This feeling of being disturbed made her very uncomfortable, full of weird awkwardness, and the friendly atmosphere on him became a little disgusting to her.

"It seems that you are very opposed to this kind of spiritual magic." Donan raised his eyebrows, as if he was a little surprised by her reaction, "This shows that you have a firm mind and are difficult to be shaken by external objects."

Olivia understood that this might be some kind of magical effect to cover up her true face, so she tried her best to ignore that feeling.

"Hello, Professor Donan, I'm Olivia Orpington. I'm very interested in ancient runes. Professor Flitwick recommended that I ask you for advice."

"Before that, I want to know your current mastery of the ancient rune." Donan's voice was soft, which could be said to be pleasant to the ear, but his tone was a little cold.

"I have memorized the three most famous rune letters, and I can understand the meanings of individual letters and simple phrases." Olivia said honestly, "But because I am self-taught, I can only read, not read."

This is rote memorization, and I would like to thank Greater China Education for making her very accustomed to this way of learning.

Donan casually wrote a few runes in the air, they were shining with golden light, and seemed to contain unique magic power.

"Recognize it."

"The first letter is water, which means flow and growth. The second letter is a gift, which also means a contract. The latter is a short sentence, Professor? Planning a trip?" Olivia was not sure.

Donen reached out his hand to erase those words noncommittally, and said, "Okay, now let me listen, what do you want to learn?"

It was a pleasure to study with Donen.

He didn't talk much, and seemed a little indifferent. Apart from explaining knowledge, he basically didn't have unnecessary conversations with Olivia, and he didn't even wonder why she was interested in ancient runes.But no matter what weird questions she asked, he could give detailed and reasonable answers.

Olivia felt that he was not young anymore.This level of knowledge cannot be possessed by a young man in his 20s, at least it should be at the level of Dumbledore.

She was a little curious about Donan's real appearance, but since the other party clearly showed alienation, she would not search out without interest.

On a Friday morning, Dumbledore's invitation was also delivered to Olivia's table by a paper crane.

She fished out the thumping paper crane that fell into the milk in disgust, and after unfolding it, she saw a sentence written on it in a long and thin font full of circles.

Dear Miss Orpington: I heard that you need my help with some interesting little problems. I am in the office this afternoon and look forward to your arrival.

PS. The password is "Honey Zizitang".

"Principal Dumbledore?" Snape next to him glanced at the signature, "What does he want you for?"

The Slytherin students didn't have a good impression of the Gryffindor-born headmaster. Although Snape didn't know much about the situation yet, he didn't think he would be friendly to the Slytherin students.

Olivia threw the note into the milk, "You know I'm studying alchemy."

"So you asked him to teach you?" Snape frowned.

"Yes, he is a very good alchemist. If he is willing to teach me, that is my luck."

"...Then don't look like you're sacrificing your life for righteousness." Snape despised her, "It's just going to the headmaster's office, not asking you to fight a dragon."

After he finished speaking, he found that she was looking at him with a very subtle look.

Olivia smiled meaningfully: "You will know how difficult this principal is in the future."

In the afternoon, Olivia sat opposite this very difficult old man, watching him wink at her with a smile.

"Good day, Miss Orpington, would you like some cockroach piles?"

"Good day, Principal." Olivia looked at the trembling cockroach whiskers in front of her expressionlessly, "I'm curious, has any girl eaten this under your recommendation?"

"Unfortunately, no."

"I think you should try something different, like Lemon Sherbet? I'd love to enjoy that."

Dumbledore readily agreed, and replaced the pile of cockroaches in front of her with a pile of hard candies, and he pinched a struggling cockroach and put it in his mouth.

"It seems that you like sweet and sour food."

Olivia stuffed one into her mouth unceremoniously: "Yes, and chocolate."

She enjoyed the dessert happily, and looked at the layout of the office with undisguised eyes.

This is a spacious and beautiful double-storey room. Since it is located in a tower building, the room is in the shape of a circular arc. The two walls are floor-to-ceiling bookshelves, filled with various books and silverware of unknown use. Pensieve.The portraits of past principals are distributed on other walls, each staying quietly in the picture frame.

Dumbledore sat behind his huge desk, which was furnished with what appeared to be astronomical instruments and various sweets.

It seems that there is no Phoenix at this time.she thinks.

"You seem very curious about my office." Dumbledore's blue eyes blinked behind the half-moon-shaped lenses, so clear that he didn't look like an elderly man.

"You know," Olivia doesn't like to talk around the bush, and she doesn't think she can surpass Dumbledore's ability to circle around, "I've been to every corner of Hogwarts, except for you - I I originally wanted to treat this place as a mysterious secret place."

"Let me take a guess. Are you planning to—make a map of Hogwarts?"

"Almost. But it's not the kind of two-dimensional, but more three-dimensional, intuitive, with text..." Talking about her interests, she explained her thoughts with great interest, "It needs to be combined with alchemy items to do it."

"Oh, of course." Dumbledore nodded knowingly, "full of creative ideas."

He looked at Olivia kindly: "You remind me of your father, Lancet, who also has a unique imagination in Transfiguration."
