No matter how busy the outside world is arguing about werewolves, spiders and the board of supervisors, the little animals of Hogwarts are still relatively far away, after all, they cannot participate.So the little animals continued their simple and happy study life, and at the same time began to slowly accept the appearance of an unusual "little wizard" among their classmates.

Now everyone knows that it was Peter Pettigrew who replaced the wolfsbane potion made by Prince himself, which made Remus lose his mind.Some brave Gryffindors have already started normal communication with Remus, which of course also benefited from his usual popularity and the generosity of Lily Evans.

Although she was infected with wolfsbane and almost turned into a werewolf, Lily Evans was very lucky to be the first beneficiary of the wolfsbane anti-epidemic drug, and even gained her love because of it. James' desperate rescue made the romantic little The witches were envious.

Perhaps it took only one day from the time when she was infected with Wolfsbane until it was completely resolved. After experiencing the initial panic and despair, Lily quickly recovered her former cheerfulness under the sweet love. Woz's discussion of safety hazards came to an end, and she had the energy to focus on her findings.

"Lily, if you don't hurry up, Potter's going to jump."

Severus stood at the corner of the cellar corridor, helplessly reminding the hesitant Lily that James Potter was not far away, and although he was happy to see Potter's various depressed expressions before, now that Lily has been with Potter, After confirming the relationship, he is naturally not interested in seeing a Potter jealous.If Lily hadn't suffered a lot this time, he would have left in a hurry when she was dawdling and never explaining why she came.He also didn't want to see another man who was jealous of Hai Shengbo.

"Uh, Severus, do I have a few things I want to ask?" Lily frowned.

"Then you can tell them one by one." Severus took a moment to guess what Lily wanted to say.

He had just turned down Albus' request this morning.No matter how innocent Hagrid was, those acromantid spiders were all raised by him. In fact, without these spiders, Tabor would never have had a chance to deal with him. Now that he knew that he was reborn, Tabor naturally knew that it was just An insane werewolf and Lily's containment will not achieve the purpose of killing him, even with the help of the crown.

Although nothing happened to him in the end, it was understandable why Voldemort was unwilling to wave his hand.In fact, after the crown disappeared, he also fell into fear for a time, watching the man who was exactly the same as his lover, or even a part of his lover, disappear before his eyes. Go bear it again.

Severus even hated Tabor deeply. If it wasn't for him, the crown would have stayed in the Room of Requirement well, and perhaps one day it would be able to make up for the real survival of the soul instead of dissipating into the world like this. Voldemort didn't know that during this period of time when he came back late at night, he didn't fall asleep, and only in his arms every day could he truly feel at ease.Therefore, Hagrid, who indirectly helped Tabor, also disgusted him.

"I know that Hagrid really shouldn't have kept so many acromantia, but, Severus, he has no bad intentions. Azkaban is really a terrifying place." Lily secretly peeped at Sever Les looked pale, and found that he was still indifferent, and couldn't help being discouraged: "Oh, I know you won't be willing to forgive him, but in fact, I just did my best."

Severus raised his eyebrows in surprise, they grew up together, they knew how kind Lily was, and she was not someone who would give up easily, he didn't even say anything.

Lily looked at Severus's expression, her face flushed slightly, in fact, she was only tempted out of sympathy.What's more, after the werewolf incident, she has matured a lot and can understand Severus' mood very well.

"Severus, actually, even now, when I see Remus, I'm still very scared." Lily said hesitantly, and she could only confide her thoughts to her childhood friends who weren't from the academy, even to her dorm roommates. No one has ever said that.

"Although I know that Remus didn't do it on purpose, and I know that his potion was replaced by Pettigrew, but I just can't help the chills in my heart, always afraid that he will suddenly turn into a furry monster and pounce on him. I can't even My roommate’s kitten will be scared. However, James and Remus are good friends. Last time, they had a bad relationship because of Rivers. I can’t let James lose all his friends because of me. That’s why I Said to forgive him. You see, I have become hypocritical now. I have no right to ask you to forgive the person who almost killed you. "

There was a strange look in Severus' eyes, and the corners of his mouth lifted into a slight smile. "No, Lily, you've done a good job."

Lily looked up at Severus happily, she didn't feel like a brave Gryffindor lately.Remus has always been sensitive, and now he tries not to appear in front of her as much as possible. He must know that she is afraid, so Lily has always felt uneasy in her conscience. Now her friend's affirmation has undoubtedly freed her from shame.

She turned to look at James who had been waiting in the distance, recalled the ultimate purpose of today's conversation, and summoned up the courage to ask.

"Severus, I heard that the wizarding world allows wizards to form companionship, is that true?"

Severus was taken aback by the topic he had asked, and nodded subconsciously.

Lily's eyes widened in surprise, she thought Severus didn't know about it, like she never paid attention.

Ever since she resumed her normal college life, Lily finally remembered what she heard about Sirius wanting to pursue Severus, so she ran over and gave him a harsh lesson. Unexpectedly, Sirius was serious, and even James admitted it. It is also said that wizards are allowed to form partners in the wizarding world, because there is a magical potion for giving birth!

Lily thought of the Fertility Potion and immediately understood why Severus knew.

"Is it because of the fertility potion? But among my classmates, I have never seen two wizards together?"

Severus looked at Lily suspiciously, wondering why she had such a problem since she didn't find the wizard together.

"It is possible for wizards and same-sex couples to conceive children, but it is rare for a couple in a hundred years. Later, Prince invented the fertility potion, which relatively increased the probability of wizards having children. Therefore, the magic world officially allowed same-sex marriage, but even With the existence of childbirth potions, the chances of having children of the same sex are much lower than normal couples. It is difficult for wizards to inherit, so most pure-blood wizards will not choose same-sex couples. As for the little wizards born in the Muggle world, I don’t even think about accepting the same sex.”

Lily said "ah" and pouted. Sirius was seriously injured to save her and James this time, but Severus saved the three of them. Lily thought that since they had shared weal and woe, Sirius Since she likes Severus so much, and has no worries about having children, she agreed to Sirius' plea and wanted to help match him up.But if the chance of having children with the potion is very small, doesn't it mean that Severus may never have children in his life, Lily couldn't help but hesitate.

Severus stretched his hand across the air, and the shiny silver lettering showed that it was almost lunch time, and he couldn't help sighing. "Lily, what exactly do you want to know?"

Lily couldn't help rolling her eyes. Severus was also born in the Muggle world. Even though the relationship between Sirius and Severus has eased a lot, she may not be willing to accept wizards, but she sympathizes with Sirius and doesn't want to mess up. After thinking about it I had an idea.

"Ah, I want to ask you, will you improve the birth potion?"

"Improve fertility potion?" Severus raised his eyebrows. Since he finished researching wolfbane anti-epidemic potions before Halloween, he has concentrated on researching potions that increase magic power and spiritual power, because his magic power growth has completely hit a bottleneck, and he shrinks Potions also need to be researched, and he has no time to improve this remote potion now.

Because the probability of childbirth potion is very small, only wizards in the general family who do not have the pressure of having children will let themselves choose a same-sex partner because of love. The demand is very small, and the current childbirth potion is actually enough.

"Well, maybe it would be useful if a friend likes the same sex?"

Lily faltered in her explanation.Who knew that the slightly pale face of her friend with black hair and black eyes began to turn red, which made her widen her eyes in surprise.

Severus felt uncomfortable. He hadn't thought much of it when he heard about the Fertility Potion, but when Lily said this, he suddenly thought of him and Voldemort.

"Uh, Severus, you..." Lily's green eyes were full of curiosity, why did she feel that Severus, who had always been calm and calm, was very cramped.

"It's nothing."

Severus interrupted Lily's inquiry hastily, and calmed his chaotic thoughts with the long-useless Occlumency.

"The birth potion has been invented for 500 years, and it is very difficult to boil it. It may not be easy to improve it. Let's go, it's lunch time."

After speaking, he took the lead to walk towards the auditorium.

Lily snickered slyly behind her, turned around and trotted towards James.Maybe, Severus can accept wizards of the same sex. Well, she needs to discuss it with James and Sirius. This is also a great opportunity to repair the relationship between Sirius and James.And from what Sirius said, Slytherin's current head of the house seems to be interested in Severus, so what's the matter?

When Voldemort came to the auditorium for dinner, he saw something was wrong with Severus at first glance, and kept his head buried in the meal without even giving him a look!

Voldemort squinted his red eyes and looked at Dumbledore. He received the news that Dumbledore had approached Severus, and he thought it was too much for him to throw Hagrid into Azkaban?But Severus shouldn't have a good impression of Hagrid.However, it seemed that Lily Evans had also sought out Severus. Was Severus persuaded, or was he upset? Voldemort felt bored.

"Albus, I've made it very clear that you're still looking for Severus!" Voldemort stared at Dumbledore viciously, venting his displeasure at the old headmaster.

Dumbledore couldn't help but smiled wryly, he just hoped that Severus would forgive Hagrid in the morning, and he was rejected before he said anything.Lily looking for Prince has nothing to do with him, and Dumbledore opened his mouth to defend.

It's a pity that Voldemort didn't allow him to say anything, wanting Dumbledore's character of never giving up until he achieved his goal, he interrupted him in a low and hissing voice. "Hmph, that half-giant, since you are so reluctant, as long as you promise me to expel him from Hogwarts forever, I promise not to throw him into Azkaban!"

Dumbledore was overjoyed when he heard the words. With his current prestige and the evidence currently held by the Ministry of Magic, it would be very difficult to save Hagrid, but Voldemort would have no problem taking action.Although Hagrid couldn't return to Hogwarts, he was lucky not to have to face the terrifying dementors.

Although I don't know why Voldemort suddenly changed his mind, but at least he didn't want him to harass Prince. It seems that this little Prince has a lot of weight in Voldemort's heart, otherwise he wouldn't be in a position to advance or retreat, which is better.Thinking of the plan of the previous two days, Dumbledore decided to organize manpower to investigate as soon as possible.

More than a month later, the trial of the werewolf and acromantula attack on December 12 was officially concluded.

Because of the existence of the wolfsbane anti-epidemic potion and the improved wolfsbane potion, Remus Lupine was made an exception and allowed to continue studying at Hogwarts, and even future little werewolves were allowed to enter Hogwarts, but each full moon must Take wolfbane potion and be in the screaming shed to be guarded by one of the four chiefs.

Rubeus Iger, who raised dangerous magical creatures in the Forbidden Forest without authorization, was sentenced to be expelled from Hogwarts forever. Although Dumbledore wanted to arrange a farm job for him, it was only because of his preference for huge and dangerous animals. The Fendor family did not dare to accept him, so they had no choice but to go to the giant settlement and join his younger brother.

As for Peter Pettigrew, he was probably the most severely punished, being sentenced to Azkaban for 3 years.

In the case of Voldemort erasing Tabor's existence, the responsibility for the attack was entirely on him, and Dumbledore could not protect him, because the only heir and future mistress of the Potter family almost died and even became a terrible werewolf, Gryffindor It's good that the family doesn't fall into trouble; and the Death Eaters under Voldemort's leadership obviously can't have a good impression of a Gryffindor who has never met, let alone the Prince who almost killed Slytherin.Therefore, Pettigrew's statement was not accepted at all, and was completely rejected by both black and white.

Severus sneered when he learned that Pettigrew Peter was sentenced to Azkaban. In his last life, he hated nothing more than himself, the whistleblower Gryffindor traitor.As for Hagrid's question, Severus only thought it was because of Dumbledore's full protection, and had no idea that Voldemort misunderstood him because of his shrinkage, and changed his original plan by accident.Of course, although he hates Hagrid, since he will not return to Hogwarts, he will naturally not pursue it.
