[HP] Mermaid in the Black Lake

Rather than going to Madam Pomfrey's for a special cold potion, it's best to stay where you are. "

After appeasing the shy future lion cub, Dumbledore said goodbye to Xiao Ran politely, then directly apparated back to the main hall outside the castle gate, put James down, gave him a few words of advice, and then returned to the main hall.

When Sirius saw James approaching, he hurried over and said bitterly, "Brother, you are finally willing to come back! How is it? Is the big turntable fun?"

"Come on, Sirius, I don't want to." James replied with a bitter face, "You don't know, after I was played with by the big squid for a long time, I woke up from Principal Dumbledore's arms. Find a crack in the ground and get in!"

"Pfft—" Lily, who followed closely, burst out laughing, and asked as James' face quickly turned red and then blue: "James, I didn't mean to make fun of you. I just wanted to ask you What's the matter, that big squid is only as big as an arm, I'm afraid you will be bullied by it."

"I'm fine, Lily," James replied hastily after hearing the Goddess' words of concern for him, "The creatures in the Black Lake cannot harm the little wizards of Hogwarts. The giant squid was just playing with me. And, you don't know what I saw there..."

Intrigued by James' mysterious appearance, Lily hurriedly asked, "What?"

"Deep sea mermaid! I saw a deep sea mermaid there..."

"Impossible! How did the deep-sea mermaid appear here?" Sirius, who had been educated since he was a child, of course knew what a deep-sea mermaid was. They were the children of the sea god, and they would never leave the deep-sea area. How could they appear in the black lake? !

"What are you lying to? Principal Dumbledore greeted him at the time!" James rolled his eyes and said, "If you don't believe me, let's go to the Black Lake together tomorrow."

"Okay! I want to go too!" Lily happily raised her hand to sign up. She is now very curious about everything in the magic world, let alone mermaids that have appeared many times in fairy tales.

Several people discussed for a while, then Mag came out of the gate, glanced at the neatly dressed young wizards, very satisfied, but frowned when he saw James' messy clothes standing at the end: " Now, line up in single file and follow me."

"Oh my god! I was only talking to you just now, I forgot to memorize the book again!" Lily exclaimed in a low voice, and then began to memorize the book with a sad face.

"What does Lily endorse? I heard that she is going to fight the troll. Don't worry, I will protect you!" James said.

A group of little wizards lined up and entered the gate, as if they had entered a fairy tale world. The magnificent hall was brightly lit by thousands of candles, and four long tables were neatly placed in the middle. It was full of little wizards of all grades.There are many candles floating on the ceiling, and you can see a vast night sky with thousands of stars twinkling, so beautiful that you can't take your eyes off it.

"That's the enchanted ceiling, it's written in "Hogwarts, A School History." Lily looked at Severus' shocking gaze and explained in a low voice. At the same time, she also saw a square in the center of the hall Stool, no trolls, no test papers, just a tattered pointed wizard hat, looks like that's the way to sort?

"It's beautiful." Severus looked at Lily, and his gloomy expression improved a lot.

"Damn it, what's the good of that snot-nosed man? Lily went over to talk to him again." James clenched his fists hard, afraid that if he couldn't help himself, he would rush up and beat that damned snot-nosed man violently, but it was okay. Well, there are still seven years to come, and he will give that gloomy little bat some color!

No one noticed the small movements between the few people, because most people's eyes were now focused on the tattered peaked hat. They saw it twist twice, and a wide slit opened at the brim of the hat. Like opening his mouth, he sang with a bel canto.

After it sang about the advantages of the four colleges, it bowed to the four tables one by one, and the little wizard below clapped its hands.

"So, we just have to put it on?"

"Damn Remus! He actually told me that the sorting ceremony is about fighting trolls!" James said, shaking his fist angrily, "I'll definitely send him a box of Flobber caterpillars for Christmas!"

"That's pretty good for you. My cousin told me that the sorting ceremony is to recite all the textbooks of the first grade." Sirius said bitterly, already thinking about how to repay his dear cousin.

After the crowd quieted down, Professor McGonagall stood beside the sorting hat with a piece of parchment, and said solemnly: "Whoever's name I call now will come up and put on the hat, and wait for the sorting...Karen Ann Corey!"

"Hufflepuffs!"

"Sirris Black!"

James patted him on the shoulder, Sirius walked up smartly, put the Sorting Hat on his head, the Sorting Hat pondered for a moment, and shouted directly: "Gryffindor!"

Sirius was stunned, the professors were stunned, and so was the pure-blooded little wizard below.

The eternally pure Black family produced a Gryffindor?Merlin's beard, isn't this a joke?

Bellatrix Black and Narcissa Black, who were sitting on the long Slytherin table, turned pale, and looked at Sirius who was still sitting on the stool in disbelief.

"Oh no! As much as I want to go to Gryffindor, my family doesn't allow it! You must have got the hat wrong!" Sirius screamed in his head, and he could already imagine his serious and prim What would mother have done to him, maybe seven years of yelling letters?

"How could I be wrong? The Sorting Hat can never be wrong, little guy, you belong to Gryffindor!" The Sorting Hat obviously didn't want to communicate with Sirius, and twisted its body to let McGonagall pick it up.

Mag helped the glasses that were falling off, and said sternly: "Quiet, continue sorting!"

The discussion below suddenly disappeared without a trace, but many people looked at Sirius who was on the verge of collapse intentionally or unintentionally, with unknown meanings exchanged in their eyes.

Slytherin

There were no surprises in the subsequent sorting ceremony. Severus went to Slytherin, and Lily and Sirius went to Gryffindor.

Severus was the last to sort, and when the hat blurted out "Slytherin," he glanced at Lily subconsciously.It's a pity that Lily is having a hot fight with the little wizard of Gryffindor, and James is sitting next to her, wagging his tail and chatting up, and there is no extra time to see him.

Severus felt a little lost.

He took off the Sorting Hat and put it back on the corner stool politely, and walked towards the Slytherin table, where the little wizards applauded reservedly, but looked at Severus with searching and contemptuous eyes.Snape, a surname he had never heard of, could only mean that he was either an illegitimate child or a half-blood, whatever it was, was unwelcome among pure-blood Slytherins.

Severus, who was very familiar with all kinds of malicious gazes since he was a child, of course felt the contempt of his future classmates. The cold eyes made him clenched his fists and sat at the end of the empty seat.The senior sitting next to him glanced up and down at him, and moved to the other side. It seems that if he didn't want to maintain his aristocratic demeanor, he would probably let the people behind him move back and let him leave. farther away.

Severus looked up at the Gryffindor table, Lily was still chatting with James, unaware of his predicament.

At this time, Dumbledore stood up, and the little wizards who noticed his movements quickly fell silent.

There is a kind of person who is born with this kind of momentum. He doesn't need a stern expression or vicious words to make everyone move according to his will.Even the proud Slytherin can't deny that Dumbledore is a great wizard. Of course, it would be better if he didn't reject Slytherin so much.

"Welcome!" Dumbledore's beard swayed as he opened, and the crisp bell echoed throughout the hall, "Welcome everyone to Hogwarts, where you will spend the most Wonderful student days! Before the banquet begins, let me say a word first, that is: Idiot! Crying nose! Dregs! Twist! Thank you!"

After finishing speaking, Dumbledore sat back again, and the empty plates on the four tables were quickly filled with various delicacies, and there was a burst of exclamation in the hall.

"Dumbledore is still so crazy," said the senior snake sitting below him, "I heard that the bell was given to Fox by Professor McGonagall last Christmas, but it was snatched by Dumbledore to set his beard .”

"No wonder Professor McGonagall's face was so stiff after Christmas." The other little snake laughed in a low voice. It was really unexpected that Dumbledore would do such a shameless thing, and even snatch the pet's presents.

"Blake's old house must be exploding now, and the eternally pure Black has produced a Gryffindor?"

"The blood is mutated. I have never heard that the nobles like to hang out with the common people. Maybe he is not popular among the nobles. Only that Potter can feel sorry for him, so he went to Gryffindor?"

"It's very possible to say that. Everyone knows that Blake's heir is proud of his talents and looks down on others, even his own younger brother. It doesn't matter if you don't want a son or brother like this. Slytherin's special training: Cherish your family , he will definitely not be able to do this, luckily the Black family has a second son..."

"Okay, Narcissa, Sirius may not be willing, just now he looked very bad, maybe you can ask him to talk to him alone later?" The speaker was sitting diagonally across from Severus.

It was a beautiful and angry boy, with platinum-blond long hair tied loosely in the middle with a dark green headband, light gray eyes, with a charming arc formed at the corners of the eyes, Severus saw many little The snake's gaze could not help but pause as it swept past him.With a slender and tall figure, even without muscles, he can hold up his clothes. Even if he wears the old-fashioned wizard's robe, it looks like a dress carefully tailored by a nobleman.

To describe it in what the future professor said in the future, it is a humanoid love potion.

"But Sirius went to Gryffindor. If the elders in the family know, Sirius will definitely suffer." Narcissa covered her face and wept in a low voice. He watched this younger brother grow up, although Sirius has always She is rather proud, but she is still good to her sister.

"Sirius is very talented, your elders will definitely not give up on him."

"Really, Lucius?"

"Of course, my Sissy."

The boy named Lucius hugged Narcissa and comforted him softly. The other little wizards looked familiar. It seemed that this was not the first time they had performed in public.

Severus snorted inwardly, and was looking away when he met a pair of light gray eyes, filled with the pride of aristocrats, but looked at Severus without disdain or contempt.

Severus felt a little surprised for a moment.

But only Lucius Malfoy knows that, as the best heir of the Malfoy family, he knows every secret among the nobles, and this is his weapon to control other nobles in the future.Of course, it can also become a weapon for him to discover value, such as that greasy freshman-Severus Snape.

His memory is not wrong, Prince, the most prestigious potion family in England, everyone in the family is a potion genius.And more than ten years ago, Irene Prince, the sole heir of the Prince family, married a dirty Muggle named Snape.

Severus Snape, although he was a half-breed, was a freshman who had no family protection and might be a potion genius—Lucius didn't intend to take it lightly.Even, he needs a period of time to observe whether this person is worth wooing.

Nodding to Severus, Lucius continued to make out with his Sissy, Severus gave him a suspicious look, lowered his head and continued to eat.

When everyone put down their forks, the food residues on the plate disappeared, and various snacks appeared-pudding, ice cream, jelly, donuts, and Severus took a piece of fried jam to sweeten it. Quan took a bite, and the sweet taste made him frowned in disgust - he was sure that he didn't like desserts very much, because that's what happy people would like.

As the dinner continued, no one responded to Severus, as if they couldn't see him.But Severus didn't care anymore, he was always alone when he was in Spider's End, no children would play with him, even Lily, she had her own partner, and she could spend very little time with him.

Instead, it was books that stayed with him the longest.

The world outlined between the lines is always so fascinating. There is no hunger, no cold, and no beatings. He would rather spend a whole day hungry and read a book under a tree by the river than go home. Better to face the fists of alcoholic fathers.

Watching the others still eating their desserts and talking softly occasionally, Severus took out a book from his school uniform and read it with relish.

It wasn't until a strange singing sound came that Severus raised his head from the book in dissatisfaction, and saw Dumbledore standing on the professor's seat waving a wand in his hand, and a golden ribbon fluttered out of the wand. Rows of cursive characters formed in mid-air.

The Gryffindor and Hufflepuff tables sang loudest, with all sorts of tunes, and the Slytherins and Ravenclaws all just chanted silently.Severus guessed that this was also part of the entrance ceremony, so he read the text quickly, just in time to finish with the others.

At this point, the banquet was finally over, and the prefects of each house led the freshmen back to the dormitory. Slytherin's dormitory was in the cellar, passing through a long corridor, and at the end was a stone door carved with gorgeous patterns. A portrait of an ancient nobleman.

"Password?" the noble asked with his chin raised.

"Noble," replied the prefect.

The noble saluted gracefully, and the stone door moved away, revealing a circular opening. The little wizards followed the prefects into the Slytherin common room—soft carpets, gorgeous furnishings, resting In the center of the chamber is a burning fireplace, making the subterranean lounge look anything but damp.

After the prefects finished speaking, it was their headmaster and Potions professor, Horace Slughorn. Although this funny fat old man loved vanity, it was undeniable that he was a very good man. The professor, at least in his class, even a Gryffindor would be smart enough to make potions instead of blowing up the cauldron.

After Professor Slughorn left, the prefect took the girls to the dormitory first, and then came to put the boys in. Severus found that he was the only one on the name tag of his dormitory, not two people like everyone else. Individual room.

Well, being obnoxious isn't all bad, at least he has a private room instead of sharing a bedroom.

Severus thought silently, but there was still an unconcealable bitterness in his heart.

Just as he was about to open the door and go in, the prefect stopped him and said, "Snape, this is a dormitory for mixed-bloods. You must know that Slytherin mixed-bloods are very rare, so you are the only one. But , Slytherin's strength is paramount, I don't want you to not be strict with yourself just because you are a mixed race, and I don't want Slytherin to be ashamed because of you, do you understand?"

Is this caring about him?Or warning?Severus was not very clear, so he could only nod his head and said, "Of course."

The prefect left satisfied, and Severus closed the dormitory door and threw himself into the bed, replaying everything that happened today in his mind.It wasn't until after midnight that he dazedly let himself fall asleep.

meeting of the two

After school, life began to become more regular.

The curriculum of Hogwarts has remained unchanged for almost a thousand years. Which courses were taught when the school was founded and which courses are still taught now, but the emphasis is different.Even the content of the Muggle Studies class is exactly the same.

I have to say that being a wizard is still not very new. They followed the same curriculum for thousands of years until the twentieth century. Fortunately, they only studied for seven years. It is a tragedy.

Slytherin and Gryffindor have been rivals since the establishment of the school. Now, with the efforts of the Dark Lord and the White Wizard, they have become rivals. Whenever they see each other, they can't help but want to throw a curse in the past.

This kind of war is okay in the lower grades, because the little wizards don't learn many spells, they can only use elementary spells such as getting bigger quickly, with many obstacles, petrification, tarantella dance, front teeth match sticks, etc. .But in the senior grades, it really became a life-and-death duel, with spells such as flocking birds, falling apart, scorching fire, shattering bones, etc., causing the beds in the infirmary to often be out of reach.

Madam Pomfrey protested to Dumbledore, but he dismissed it as a prank among the children.Because of this incident, Pomfrey stopped Dumbledore's anti-moth potion angrily, with the excuse that "the children's pranks kept her too busy to make potions".

In such an atmosphere, James was also greatly encouraged, and he was excited to find trouble with - the evil Slytherin - Severus every day.

Because Severus had only entered school not long ago, his spells were only the Transfiguration and Levitation spells, unlike James, who had learned a lot of spells in advance from his noble education, so in a one-to-two match, two people were added. Under the circumstances, he was almost completely defeated.

The elementary spells did not cause much harm to Severus in the hands of the little wizard, but almost every day he spent a lot of time dealing with the gang of robbers, who were locked in the corridor for a few hours, or went to Pang Mrs. Frey's place to patronize for a while.In the rest of the time, I have to go to class, do homework, preview and review...

After just one week, Severus felt like half a year had passed, both physically and mentally exhausted.

You can't hide from it. I don't know how the school arranges it. Most of the courses are taught by Slytherin and Gryffindor.Severus' fixed seat is in the last row, and he is the only one. As long as it is not Professor McGonagall's Transfiguration class, the robbery foursome will always sit in the last row of Gryffindor, so that they can give Severus a seat. Les causing trouble.

The rest of Slytherin watched with a scrutiny attitude, and they would not intervene until Severus showed his strength to impress them.

As for Lily, her situation is also not good. Her best friend is a Slytherin, which is simply an unforgivable thing in Gryffindor, the incarnation of justice.If it weren't for the little prince of Gryffindor, James, who fell in love with her and made others dare not do anything, her situation might be worse than Severus. After all, Gryffindor is not as "reserved" as Slytherin.

Lily would stop James from bullying Severus every time, but James would stop and even apologize softly to her.But the next time, there is still no change, and the attack will be more serious, she can often see Severus with bruises.

In her eyes, James is an arrogant, arrogant, and rude bastard, and he pesters herself every day, like a candy that cannot be shaken off.

As time went by, Lily's enthusiastic and cheerful character finally made Gryffindor admit her. After all, such a cute girl could not be "Slytherin's friend".From what Lily said, Lily must have sympathized with the little bat to be friends with him, but after a while, she will definitely find out how evil Slytherin really is, and she is not worthy of being Gryffindor's friend.

Lily didn't know this, and people began to talk to her in the college, and even became good friends with the girls in the same dormitory.This change made Lily very happy, so she spent more time with her new friends and less time with Severus.

And without Lily's stop, James became more unscrupulous.

One day in mid-September, just after the herbal medicine class, the little wizards of Slytherin and Gryffindor walked out of the greenhouse on guard against each other, as if the other party would throw a curse in the next second.

Severus turned a blind eye to this confrontation, and walked towards the opposite direction of entering the castle with the book in his arms. He walked across a large grass field, and there was a secret path at the junction of the Black Lake and the Forbidden Forest, leading to a clearing by the lake .That was the place Severus found yesterday, because it was a certain distance from the castle, so no one came.

For Severus, who could receive a curse at any time while walking in the castle, this was the real paradise.

Sitting down by a big tree by the lake, Severus put the book on his knees and opened it. It looked like he bought a second-hand book. There were graffiti in the book, and even a few love poems. Not very clear in a pile of black ink, but enough.

The British skies are shrouded in clouds and fog for most of the year, but today is a rare day of fine weather.The sun peeked out from behind the clouds, and the warm sunlight fell on Severus' body through the leaves, making it lukewarm and very comfortable.

While Severus was in a trance, a burst of heavenly singing sounded, and the clear and soothing boyish voice hummed softly. It was just a simple note, but it took Severus out of the world of the book. Pulled out.

When he looked up, he saw a piece of shining silver.

A beautiful mermaid was lazily basking in the sun on a big rock not far from the lake, with her head resting on her arms, her eyes squinted in enjoyment, and a contented smile hung on the corner of her mouth.The black hair spread over his body like silk, forming a strong contrast with the silver fishtail and fair skin, giving him an indescribable beauty.And the fish tail that shines like a diamond, pats the water surface gently from time to time, like a playful child.

At that moment, Severus felt as if his soul had gone out of his body.

Being stared at by the same person for too long, Xiao Ran was very impatient, he just wanted to bask in the sun, he didn't want to be surrounded by people anymore, so he opened his eyes and gave Severus a hard look.

"Eh?" Seeing this, Xiao Ran chuckled suddenly, that little guy with greasy hair, short and thin, big nose and sallow skin on the shore, who is it but Severus?

He had been thinking about when the two would have a formal meeting, but he didn't expect it to be so soon.

He didn't go looking for Severus on purpose, after all, Harry Potter was just a story to him, even if he came to this sub-space, he couldn't integrate into it.Severus was just one of the characters in the story that moved him more, and it didn't make his IQ drop to zero, so he made a rush to Hogwarts Castle and said to Severus, "Hi, I'm sorry , because you moved me, so I decided to help you pick up girls" - such a mentally handicapped thing.

If God came here for Severus in order to let him, they would definitely meet, and it would be much easier to justify it.

Isn't this an opportunity?

Xiao Ran stood up and asked with a smile: "Is my song nice?"

Severus came back to his senses all of a sudden, his face flushed red, but he said in his mouth: "Mr. Mermaid wants to turn into a peacock and show off your gorgeous feathers to me? If I remember correctly, the whole The wizarding world has recorded praises for mermaid singing, do you need poor me to recite it to you?"

"Don't compare me with peacocks, which are not gorgeous," Xiao Ran pouted and said, "You have such a sharp mouth at such a young age, you really deserve to be a Slytherin snake!" into the lake.

Severus froze for a moment, then a self-deprecating gleam flashed in his eyes.

How can a greasy, weird little bat expect to be liked by others?You deserve only to hide in the dark.

At this moment, Xiao Ran swam out of the water again, jumped onto a rock by the lake, and waved lazily at Severus: "Come here! You wouldn't be so ungentlemanly sitting so far away place to talk to me?"

"Are you implying to me that your gender is actually female?" Severus snorted, but still couldn't help walking over.Mermaids are a symbol of beauty in the magical world. They love to sing and love peace, but they are still very powerful to invaders in the territory.

Deep-sea mermaids generally live on the bottom of the sea, and they are a legendary race. So far, only shallow-water mermaids have been seen. They usually live in coral reefs in shallow seas.In the Muggle world, many navigators ran aground and sank because they couldn't bear the temptation of the mermaid's singing, but they blamed the mermaid for their crimes, thus creating an ugly image of a vicious cannibal.

Of course, shallow-water mermaids are ugly, but deep-sea mermaids are as beautiful as Veela.

Severus sat beside Xiao Ran, took off his shoes like a mermaid, and put his feet into the cold lake water.

"My name is Xiao Ran, and I'm a temporary resident of Black Lake, what about you?"

"Severus...Severus Snape." Not knowing whether he was tempted by the mermaid, Severus said his name without hesitation.

get along with lily

Since the last time the two exchanged names, the two began to spend more time seeing each other.

The location is naturally still there, Severus would go to the library to borrow books every day after class, and moved the original reading place from the library to the lake.Xiao Ran would come up to sit with him every day, neither of them was a talkative person, they just talked a few words while reading, but there was never an atmosphere of embarrassment between them.

Severus learned about the origin of mermaids from Xiao Ran, and learned a few words of mermaid language by the way.

Xiao Ran also learned from Severus that the food at Hogwarts is delicious, but the desserts are too unacceptable; Headmaster Dumbledore likes to pretend to be crazy every time, Professor McGonagall is a good professor, black The Defense Against Magic professor is a liar; Gryffindors are stupid lions that blow their fur every day, and Slytherin snakes are easily assimilated when they see a lion and become a smelly mane with a lion's mane. Snake; who said Hufflepuffs were honest?Their ability to avoid disasters is stronger than anyone else. Seeing that there are countless little wizards who have entered the infirmary since the beginning of school, there is no Hufflepuff who knows...

Of course, it was impossible for these words to come out of Severus' mouth, but Xiao Ran's conclusions were drawn from Severus's twists and turns.

There is also something more important recently - flying lessons on Thursday.

Flying lessons were supposed to start in the second week of school, but their professor was on a honeymoon period and didn't finish until the first two days.So those professors who have used the course before will make a lesson to return to the flying lesson, so on Thursday and Friday, they will have three full flying lessons!

"It's hard to imagine that a wizard with such a convenient and quick way of moving as an apparition phantom will ride that kind of broom that has no aesthetic feeling and pretend to be a slut dangling in mid-air. Maybe they are fairy tales read from the heads of Muggle ghosts. I found a sense of presence in it, so I can't wait to dress myself up as a vicious, ugly witch?" Severus's original words were like this, and his face could already be scraped off a layer of dust.

"It's the only entertainment in the wizarding world, they have no choice but to like broomsticks."

Xiao Ran could only comfort Severus, because he couldn't imagine what it would be like for a young but already imposing future professor riding on a broomstick.

However, there are really few entertainment items in the wizarding world!

I think he has been living in the human world since he was able to separate his legs. Computers, TV, video games, toys, novels... There are too many entertainment items, even sports, such as basketball, volleyball, Football, table tennis...

After arriving in the wizarding world, he never left the Black Lake because he needed to recuperate from his injuries, and he had nothing to do except practice every day.

As the only sport in the wizarding world, Quidditch is a bit more advanced than basketball - after all, people are dangling in mid-air, and everyone is a "flying man" - but I have watched it for thousands of years, and I will not feel tired ?

Watching Severus leave, Xiao Ran continued to think with his chin resting on his shoulders. He remembered that James Potter's flying skills were very good. He was able to make difficult movements of 360-degree flips after he first came into contact with the broom when he was young. knew.

And James and Severus are now rivals.

In other words, James would probably provoke Severus during the flying lesson, Xiao Ran was looking forward to what would happen.After all, he and Severus were just friends who had exchanged names and chatted for a few days. At most, he still had an idea of ​​wanting to help him pursue a woman, and he couldn't be responsible for the other's life.

Therefore, it was up to Severus to decide what to do in the future.

He, just be a spectator.

When Severus returned to the castle, it was almost time for dinner, and he had already finished reading the book in his hand. Before dinner, he went to the library to return the book, and borrowed another book on the expansion of basic knowledge of potions. Just walked towards the hall.

Walking outside the hall, Severus heard Lily calling him, and just stopped, Lily ran to him happily, pouted and said dissatisfiedly: "Severus, what are you doing lately? I'm going to I can't even find you."

"I found a quiet place to read, Lily, what can you do?" Severus was a little excited, his face was also nervous, he could hardly control the trembling of his hands.

It had been a long time since Lily had been stalking that damn Potter.

"Really?! Then I also want to know! You don't know how much Potter is too much, I can't clean up every time I read in the library!" Lily said angrily with disgust in Potter's tone, " He even had to guard the door when I went to a women's bathroom, and he stared at Esmeralda after I said a few words to me... I really don't know how there are such annoying boys in this world. That little fat man is cuter than him!"

"The stupid lion of Gryffindor..."

Severus is also very angry, but now he is powerless, far worse than him who has no foundation in strength, and better than interpersonal relationships, although the robbery foursome—mainly the two of them who are always energetic— He likes to play pranks and often bullies Hufflepuffs, but because of their good family background, good strength, good looks, and personality in line with Gryffindor characteristics, most professors still like them very much.

Compared with him who has always accepted cold violence in Slytherin, the difference between the two is very different.

"Severus, don't speak ill of Gryffindor! Don't forget that I am also a Gryffindor now, are you going to call me a stupid lion?" Lily narrowed her eyes threateningly, as if only Severus nodded, and she was about to give him a big stick in front of his teeth.

"No, of course not..."

Severus explained dryly, but Lily smiled "Puchi—" and waved her hands: "Okay, okay, I know what you mean. The relationship between the two colleges is so bad now, you should say that Yes. Then we have agreed, you will wait for me after class tomorrow, and I will come to you after I get rid of that annoying guy, where is that secret place?"

"By the Black Lake."

"Okay then, Severus, wait for me at the gate of the castle."

After the two made an agreement, they chatted about other topics, and then walked into the
