[HP] Mermaid in the Black Lake

"Keep an eye on that half-breed, try to win him over!"

"Yes, my lord." Lucius put away the worry in his eyes, and exited the room respectfully.

After Halloween, time seems to press the fast-forward button all of a sudden, advancing to Christmas among countless stories.

Severus reduced the time to go to the lake, which caused Xiao Ran to sleep for several hours a day, practice and practice, and the underwater house was built by Xiao Ran except for Libo and Rielway who occasionally visited. After blackmailing them one by one, he avoided them one by one, and Xiao Ran was happy that no one would bother him, so he lived happily every day.

On Christmas Day, Xiao Ran lay on the rocks by the lake to enjoy the swirling snowflakes. The icy snow was like the comfort of feathers to Xiao Ran, and he accidentally fell asleep until Severus' furious voice came. , dragged him out of the dreamland.

"Xiao Ran, what's going on?!"

When he opened his eyes, he saw Severus' livid little face, and Xiao Ran asked blankly, "What's wrong?"

"What's the matter? You asked me what's the matter?" Severus asked back through gritted teeth, wanting to step forward and slam Li Xiao Ran's head off to see what was made of it inside, "Don't tell me Mr. Xiao Ran Your pain-sensing nerves have failed, so you didn't feel the wound on your tail!"

Xiao Ran suddenly realized that he forgot to cover up the wound, but for a mermaid with rough skin and thick flesh, such a wound is really no big problem, "You don't need to worry about the wound, it will heal after a while."

Severus paused, and said angrily: "It seems that I am too busy, the great Mr. Mermaid doesn't need other people's concern at all?!"

It turned out to be caring about him!Xiao Ran looked at Severus in surprise, with a big smile on his face, and said: "Thank you, Severus, but the wound is really fine, the mermaid's self-healing ability is very good." It wasn't obvious, but there was a wave of fluctuation in his heart. Since birth, Severus was the second person who cared about him.

"But its wound has turned white, indicating that it has been soaked in water for a long time. This is what you said has a good self-healing ability?!"

"I soak in water every day, so the wound will turn white, don't tell me, Severus, you don't believe me?" After speaking, Xiao Ran held his heart, looking sad.

"No, of course not..." Severus replied dryly, but the angry look on his face receded slowly, and his obsidian eyes were full of worry, "My potion level is not bad. Why don't you try?"

"No need," Xiao Ran shook his head, seeing the disappointment in Severus' eyes, he added, "It's because there's something in the wound that is organizing the wound to heal, and I need to absorb it to make the wound heal. Medicine doesn't work either!"

It was said that Severus looked much better.

"Then... Severus, why did you come here? Isn't there a banquet at Hogwarts?" Xiao Ran blinked, "Could it be that you were one step too late and didn't invite your little girlfriend?"

Severus blushed, "How is that possible?! I'm here to give you something!" As he spoke, he timidly took out a small box from his pocket, enlarged the box with a magic spell, and handed it to the Xiao Ran.

"Christmas gift for me?" Xiao Ran was stunned. He finally realized that he had come to a real world. The people and things here were all real, just like the world he was in before. The world in the book obliterates their real existence.

And Severus Snape was not the little bat in the book whose nose almost touched the table when writing with inferiority, not the old middle-aged man in the movie, but a real person!The reason why people are human is that the contact between people will naturally produce feelings, even if they are as vigilant as him, they cannot avoid the production of feelings.

Standing in front of him and looking at his child with implied anticipation, he is the only person who cares about him except for the deep sea blood whale. His concern is extremely immature because of his age, but it just hits the softest part of his heart. corners, inadvertently integrated into one's own life.

Under Severus' eyes, Xiao Ran smiled slowly, and seriously opened the box wrapped in the simplest layer of parchment. Inside was a glass bottle filled with pale golden liquid.

If Lucius were here, he would have exclaimed "moisturizing potion" and stalked Severus to make it for him, because for those who love beauty, moisturizing potion is better than glory potion and beauty potion. It is more attractive, because it really nourishes a person from the inside out, so that TA can maintain the beauty for a longer time, which is countless times better than beauty potions and glory potions that expire every day!

Although Xiao Ran didn't know what the potion was in this bottle, he could tell from Severus's expression that it must be very precious. The black and blue eyes in the other party told him that the potion was not easy to make.

After thinking about it, Xiao Ran gritted his teeth and tore off a fish scale from the edge of the wound and handed it to Severus, saying: "This is my Christmas present to you, dear Severus, you can usually carry it with you, it can absorb The magic power that hurts you, of course not all."

"Can I use it for experimentation?" Severus asked expectantly with his eyes bright, "This is a part of you, maybe I can research a potion that can heal your wounds quickly!"

Xiao Ran's heart seemed to be soaking in warm water, and his eyes were also sore, he could only turn his gaze to look at the distant mountain, "You should wear it, the scales all over my body will fall off once when I become an adult, Then you can do your research."

"kindness."

weird situation

Christmas was originally one of the two long holidays at Hogwarts, the Robbers and Lily had gone home, and only Severus was left in Slytherin, so Xiao Ran had to face Severus in pain. Stein venom almost twelve hours a day.

Of course, it was because of the wound that was said to heal quickly, but there had been no movement.

With Severus watching over him, Xiao Ran didn't dare to do whatever he wanted like before, sleeping when he wanted to sleep, and absorbing energy only when he wanted to. Severus had to check every day, and Xiao Ran had to devote all his time to working hard.

The wound is only the length of a baby's arm, and the energy contained in it is not too much. It's just that the space attribute is too violent, which makes the wound unable to heal for a long time.After Xiao Ran tried his best to absorb it, the wound was finally shortened, even though he was not satisfied, but the Christmas holiday was over, and Severus had to return to Hogwarts to continue his classes.

Xiao Ran felt that he came to this world just to find a nemesis, otherwise, he would have crushed Severus to the ground long ago, so what's the use of being sprayed with venom every day? !Depressed, beyond words...

And Severus was no less depressed than Xiao Ran. After school started, Lucius didn't know what medicine he had taken wrongly, and whenever he was free, he came to pester him, talking about homework, the current situation of the magic world, and his future life... Among them Asked Severus many times about his opinion of the Dark Lord.

After coming to Hogwarts for so long, he still has a certain understanding of the status quo of the wizarding world. The rivalry between Dumbledore and the Dark Lord, Slytherin is known as the training base for Death Eaters, Gryffindor It is also the training base of the Order of the Phoenix, and every little wizard who leaves Hogwarts needs to choose - the Ministry of Magic, the Order of the Phoenix or the Death Eaters.

It's just that Severus didn't understand why Lucius was in such a hurry when he was in the first grade, he still had six and a half years, didn't he?

This was not the only one that was abnormal, Severus looked at the Jiedao group of four smiling at him, and said indifferently: "Excuse me... what else do you have?"

James stepped forward and put his arms around Severus's shoulders, and said enthusiastically, "Aren't we friends? If we are friends, of course we will be together. This holiday, my cousin and I won a bet. He told me about Hogwarts. A secret room, how about we go and see it now?"

"I..." I'm not interested in the Chamber of Secrets.

As soon as Severus opened his mouth, Lily came over and said expectantly: "Okay, Severus, I'm really interested in that secret room, so you can go with us!"

Lily went out, one against two, and Severus was killed and dragged to the eighth floor.

"My cousin said that you just need to think about the room you want, and then go back and forth three times." James flipped his hair and muttered, "I want a room for the Quidditch field, and there must be a lot of brooms in it." After three times, a carved stone door appeared on the wall.

The stone door opened slowly, and several people walked into the Room of Response. Inside was a Quidditch arena, and even the positions of several auditoriums were exactly the same as those in Hogwarts. "This place changes according to the place imagined in the mind of the person who needs it."

A sliver of clarity came to Severus' mind, as to why they had changed their attitude towards James, and why they had brought him to share the Chamber of Secrets.

Sure enough, the next moment, James said happily: "Since we are here, let's have a Quidditch match!"

"Great idea! It's not enough to play with my brothers during the holidays! Lily, you must also participate?" Sirius hurriedly continued.

Lily has been courageous since she was a child. What happened to her last flight lesson did not make her fearful, but aroused her competitive spirit. In just a few lessons, she learned how to operate the broom. She is one of them.

"Of course, I definitely want to participate! If it weren't for the school's rule that the first grade cannot participate in Quidditch, I would have signed up to select the Chaser!" Lily waved her small fist, then tilted her head and asked, "Sev Les, you join in too, I'll be on your team!"

"That's right, Severus, we all like Quidditch, as our friend, you will certainly like it too..." James grabbed Severus and walked towards the center of the field without even giving him a chance to refuse .

"Me, Sirius, Remus' team, Lily, Severus, Peter's team, how about it?"

"I don't like brooms," Severus said darkly.

Lily said disapprovingly: "Severus, you can't just sit and read a book every day. Dad said that you need to exercise more to be healthy. Quidditch is the only sport in Hogwarts. You can't stop participating because you don't like it." ! And I know you... But the shortcomings must be overcome, right? You see, I can operate the broom very well now."

The robbery group of four also joined in, and Severus clenched his fists, remembering the scene of the fall last time, and wanted to refuse, but he didn't want to disappoint Lily.At this moment, the door of the Room of Response opened slowly, attracting the attention of several people, and a mermaid came in with its fins and stood in front of Severus.

"Xiao Ran, it's you!" Lily exclaimed, "I haven't seen you for a long time, how do you know we're here?"

"It's you!" James said in astonishment, "Why are you here?!"

Xiao Ran was stunned for a moment, thinking "Is this the future couple? They really have a tacit understanding", but then he thought that if he was going to help Severus pick up girls, it would be better for James to stand aside, Severus Les and Lily are the future couple!

"I came to look for Severus. I heard the portrait said you were here, so I came here." Xiao Ran explained with a smile, not saying that he suddenly couldn't notice where his separated scales were, and was worried about Severus. Fleurs was in danger, so I came here.

"It's really a deep-sea mermaid!" Sirius' eyes widened, and his eyes were full of astonishment. He had heard that the deep-sea mermaid was unparalleled in beauty, but today was the first time he saw it. Even more layers...

Peter said timidly, "His image is the same as the mermaid that came with Severus on Halloween..."

Several people observed carefully, and they were indeed exactly the same. Lily suddenly realized, "So it was you, Xiao Ran, no wonder someone searched all over Hogwarts and couldn't find such a person." Afterwards, she thought it was a makeup problem. Nothing.

Five small animals chattered around Xiao Ran asking questions, and Severus stood quietly beside him, seeing Xiao Ran's impatient expression with a smile on his face, he couldn't help laughing - for only himself It is also very happy to be able to sense the emotions of the other party, and I have long forgotten the provocation of James hiding the needle in the cotton.

"Did you come to see Severus for something?" After talking for a long time, Lily remembered that Xiao Ran said that he was here to find Severus.

Xiao Ran moved his already stiff face, nodded and said: "Yes, I have something to tell him, so I can't play with you today." He asked about the carpet opposite the door, and when he knew it was a Quidditch place, he just Knowing that Severus was called here must be embarrassing him, that's why he ran in without authorization. It's okay for the little lion of Gryffindor, but if it's the little snake of Slytherin, it's extremely uncomfortable. Politeness matters now.

After talking to Lily a few words, Xiao Ran took Severus out of the Room of Response. As soon as the door was closed, he immediately lost face and muttered, "Little brat is so troublesome! He keeps chattering endlessly! Or Xi Fleurs is the most obedient, and his language is incisive enough, you can sum it up in a few words when others have to repeat hundreds of words..." After finishing speaking, he nodded seriously.

Severus changed the subject dumbfounded, and asked, "How do you know I'm here?" Xiao Ran never took the initiative to come to him, but appeared when he needed help, and Severus felt a softness in his heart, wanting to Thank you, but I am too embarrassed to speak.

"The scales I gave you can know your general location. Just now I couldn't feel the existence of the scales. I thought you were kidnapped..." But you were indeed kidnapped. Of course, Xiao Ran knew how much Severus hated Kui. Quidditch, he'd walk into the Quidditch field with nothing to think about except being framed.

"Damn Potter, you actually learned tricks. Maybe it was caught by the door panel. I didn't realize it for a while, and I almost fell for it!" Say it again.

"It should be Lu Ping's idea. Among the four, he is the only one who can use tricks, and the other three believe that big fists are the truth." To put it bluntly, Lu Ping is a dog-headed strategist, and the other three are small soldiers. Why is Ping not a genuine military adviser? Don't forget the existence of Dumbledore, that is the real big boss behind the scenes, a super-intelligent military adviser.

Severus understood.

"But Severus, it's time for you to practice riding a broom. Isn't it more interesting to defeat the enemy from the place where they are most proud?"

Severus hesitated for a moment at first, but the idea of ​​bullying the lion cub still prevailed in his heart, so he smirked and said, "You are so smart, respected Mr. Mermaid."

Then, when Dumbledore was secretly eating the dessert he bought with his own pocket money, there was a knock on the window, which made his little heart thump, and he quickly hid the things and sat down solemnly, like Thinking about something.

As a result, an arm and foot came in from the window and threw a piece of paper to him, which read: "Dear Headmaster Dumbledore, since I have fallen in love with flying recently, I borrowed a broom from your school, no Day return. Yours, Xiao Ran."

Dumbledore's glasses suddenly turned crooked, and he muttered in his heart, "What's wrong with a fish? What a weird thing it is to love flying." Professor) about this—the mermaid in the Black Lake fell in love with flying and borrowed the broom?Poppy wouldn't think he sold the broom because he wanted to buy dessert?

This is very likely...

failed flight training

When at sea, the afterglow of the setting sun renders the entire sea surface red, and the endless sea surface makes the setting sun less distant, which is a kind of spectacular beauty.

Watching the sunset at Hogwarts, the small disc-shaped red eggs slowly disappear behind the mountains and forests in the faint mist, and the golden light reflected by the black lake adds a new touch to the thousand-year-old castle of Hogwarts. Feel the vicissitudes of history, don't have a taste.

But... no matter how interesting it is, if you look at it in the wrong way, it's useless.

Take Severus, for example.

He didn't think too much when he agreed to Xiao Ran's proposal. It was nothing more than three steps: adapting to the heights, learning to broom, and bullying the little lion. It's just that Xiao Ran was not a person who took the usual route, so he could train Severus to replace him as soon as possible. Screaming the little lion bully, Xiao Ran abandoned the usual teaching method taught in the flying class and found another way.

That's why today's scene happened. Xiao Ran got Severus onto a decorative rail outside a tower in Hogwarts. There was a piece of air under his feet, at least a hundred meters above the ground.Severus was so frightened that his feet went limp immediately, his heart was beating like it was about to jump into his throat, which made him involuntarily think of the pain of falling from mid-air twice.

"Severus, breathe slowly, with me here, you won't fall." Xiao Ran's relieved voice came from behind, he sat on the stone rail less than two meters away from Severus, Next to him was one of Ruierwei's arms.

"... so high." Severus sounded like a mosquito.

"Don't look at your feet, look at the front, don't you think today's sunset is particularly beautiful?"

"Who still has the mood to watch the sunset?!"

Hearing Severus's voice sounded a bit hoarse, Xiao Ran was puzzled. He remembered a scene in the movie where Severus stood on a high place and looked down, but he didn't see his limbs weak and sweating... Could it be because of his appearance that history merged into another torrent?So the dark potions professor is afraid of heights?Merlin, this is not true!

However, looking at Severus's appearance, it seems that the shadow is quite deep. To be honest, learning to broom is of no use except to make the four little lions in the rebellious period suffer a bit.

Xiao Ran thought for a while, and said, "Then let's not study it, it's not very useful anyway."

Severus turned around immediately in astonishment, but forgot that he was sitting on a place that was only a decimeter thick, and when he moved violently, he lost his balance and fell headlong.Xiao Ran immediately jumped down, and Rui Erwei raised his arms and feet behind him, rolling the two of them together and throwing them back on the rail.

I lost face!Xiao Ran and Severus thought at the same time.

"How could you be so careless? Don't you know it's scary?" Li Ran raised his index finger and directly poked Severus' forehead, and said angrily.

"Didn't Mr. Xiao Ran jump off like a troll whose brain was clogged with unknown waste? Or do you think you are a hero so you don't need to understand other people's feelings?!" Severus said angrily, with full momentum open.

"Would I have jumped if you hadn't fallen? Do you think I'd be as stupid as you and couldn't even sit still?"

"Then Mr. Xiao Ran, who brought me to this place, has already surpassed my limit?"

"........."

Rui Erwei's huge body was lying on the black lake, all his senses were concentrated on his arms and feet, watching the two people sarcasm each other, he couldn't help shaking around, wanting the two to stop arguing.

"You just stay here and don't move!!!" The two yelled at their wrists and feet in unison, scaring Ruierwei into mid-air as if under a petrification spell.

After the two said Rui Erwei, they didn't know whether to continue talking or what to do. They stared wide-eyed for a while, and the two laughed out loud "噗嗤——".Without using too much language, they both knew that the quarrel just now stemmed from each other's concern. Although the way was a little more intense, they had to be said to be the same kind of person, an awkward little snake and a mermaid.

With Xiao Ran sitting beside him, Severus also relaxed a lot, and with what happened just now, he had a support in his heart, even if he fell again, he would not be as hurt as before.If Lily was the first candle in Severus' life, then Xiao Ran was the light within Severus' grasp, which would not burn anyone, and could envelope him in warmth.

"The high altitude doesn't feel good at all, it's too dry, and the cold wind doesn't make the skin uncomfortable at all." Xiao Ran pouted and complained, he still prefers being in the water, he can feel the comfort of water anytime.

"Me neither." Severus nodded in agreement.

"Then don't learn to fly a broom. Extreme sports are not suitable for you at all. Learn from the Dark Lord. You can fly in mid-air, which is much more majestic than riding a broom." Although Xiao Ran has half the blood of an oriental cultivator, but After all, he is not a pure oriental person, and the skills of self-cultivation left by his father are only the most basic way of self-cultivation, so he has no idea what it feels like to ride a flying sword, but he just thinks it is more majestic than riding a broom.

Severus had black lines all over his face, and said, "That's far beyond the level of ordinary wizards. The Dark Lord is one of the two kings of the wizarding world. I'm just an ordinary wizard, even half-breed."

"I am also a mixed race." After Xiao Ran finished speaking, he was not surprised to see Severus' surprised gaze, "What's so strange? You can tell that I am a mixed race by looking at my black hair. Pure blood mermaids are all blonde and blue. color fishtail."

"You came to the Black Lake because you are a half-blood?" Severus asked cautiously. He knew how low the status of half-bloods was to magical creatures. Many high-level magical creatures did not even recognize the existence of half-bloods , because the vast majority of mixed-race children cannot inherit the abilities of their parents, which is nothing less than a shame to the biological world where strength is paramount.

Xiao Ran thought for a while, because he is a mixed blood, so he can't hide in the secret place of the clan like a pure blood mermaid, and was brought here by the space crack of the doomsday, "You can also say that. The mixed blood is not that humble, dear Severer Si, although most of the half-breeds have extremely low abilities, there are still some who have inherited the advantages of their parents and become powerful beings. To give the simplest example, the heir of Slytherin, the Dark Lord, is a half-breed..."

"What?!" The crazy bloodist Dark Lord who kept saying that he wanted to clean up the mixed blood and mudblood was a half blood?This is simply the funniest joke in the past thousand years. If Salazar Slytherin knew about it, would he be so angry that he would come back to life?

"Obviously, I won't lie to you." Xiao Ran felt that he should inoculate Severus first, lest he go to the Dark Lord, "The Dark Lord was originally named Tom Riddle, a descendant of Slytherin A mixed blood with Muggles, decades ago, like you, he was discriminated against in Slytherin because of his mixed blood status, but in the end he relied on his own efforts to stand where he is today. If you don’t believe it , your friend Lucius Malfoy's father should be able to tell you."

"Malfoy? But...why..."

"It doesn't matter whether the Dark Lord is a mixed blood or not. What matters is what benefits it can bring to the Malfoy family. Moreover, I'm afraid the current head of the Malfoy family doesn't really want to become a Death Eater."

Xiao Ran remembered the cause of death of the head of the Malfoy family, Abraxas Malfoy - dragon wart syphilis.As a wizard, and the patriarch of the richest family in the wizarding world, would he die of venereal disease?A bottle of potion will solve the problem. Don't tell him that no one in the wizarding world has thought of researching potions for curing sexually transmitted diseases for thousands of years. Even if Merlin told him, he would not believe it.Perhaps it was the Dark Lord who discovered Abraxas' infidelity...

Severus wanted to ask something else, but Xiao Ran didn't continue to explain, but said: "It's not good for you to talk too much, Severus. The most important thing for you now is to enhance your own strength, not to go Thinking about these circles, even if you want to join some forces, you have to wait for you to graduate, right?"

"...I see." Severus nodded slowly, bid farewell to Xiao Ran, returned to the dormitory in a daze, and even forgot to eat dinner.

The words about the Dark Lord being a half-blood shocked him too much, and it also made him see a way forward.If the Dark Lord can achieve so much as a half-blood, why can't he?He has half of Prince's blood, no worse than anyone else!

Severus clenched his fists tightly, as if something was spurting in his blood - he will definitely make some achievements, make Slytherin recognize him, make his mother proud, and let him and Xiao Ran become side-by-side friends!

At this moment, there was a knock on the door, "Severus, are you there?" It was Lucius' voice.

Walking over to open the door, Lucius was still as gorgeous as a peacock with its tail open, his eyes lit up when he saw Severus open the door: "Dear Severus, you didn't come to dinner, I've been looking for you for a long time , Dobby, a lamb chop for Severus."

An ugly house-elf suddenly appeared in the corridor and screamed: "Yes, little master." As soon as the words fell, he disappeared in place, and within half a minute, a plate of well-made lamb chops was placed in the dormitory on the little table.

"Thank you Mr. Malfoy for your kindness, then, you can leave with your beauty potion, it's in the bedside cabinet." Severus ordered the guest coldly.

"Oh, you can't do this, Severus, it really breaks my heart." Lucius finished the aria in twists and turns, and found that Severus didn't even give him a glance, and could only cough After a cough, let's get to the point, "Since this is the case, let's get down to business."

Severus gave him a death gleam, and Lucius said indifferently: "The purpose of what I told you a few days ago must have been known to you. Because of your mermaid friend, the Lord Dark Lord treats you very well." I value it, I hope I can win you over and join the Death Eaters directly after you graduate."

Awkward

Severus was surprised, he knew how noble Lucius' status was, and he also knew how oblique the communication between the nobles was, but he directly stated the purpose in front of him, which was telling himself that he Do you really consider yourself a friend?

"Surprised?" Lucius raised his eyebrows elegantly, and his hands were not idle, and he threw out a dozen silent wand spells, isolating the entire dormitory from the outside world, "Some things are inconvenient for me to tell you, But there is one piece of advice, Severus, please consider carefully who you follow."

"What?" Didn't Lucius come to win him over instead of the Death Eaters?

Before Severus could ask, there was a knock on the door, "Prefect, are you there? I have something to ask you..."

"Damn it!" Lucius cursed in a low voice, and when he looked up again, it was the proud Malfoy who undid the spell and replied in a drawn-out tone, "Mr. Einstein, I'll be right out." Watching Severus make a confidential gesture, he walked out with his head held high.

At night, Severus lay on the bed and thought about it a lot, and finally decided on two things: the Dark Lord wanted to win over Xiao Ran, and the Malfoy family was not that loyal to the Dark Lord.

However, since Lucius was sent here, it meant that the Dark Lord would not take action directly for the time being. If Xiao Ran was not involved, Severus would still be happy to join the Death Eaters after graduation. After all, the strength of the Dark Lord is impressive Convinced, and it is impossible for him, a Slytherin, to jump into the lion pile anyway.But with Xiao Ran, he needs to think again...

In the following days, Lily and Jiedao's group of four may have been indulging in the Room of Response, often disappearing after class.While Severus was grateful to get rid of James' entanglement, he was also disappointed by Lily's neglect. He just thought of what Xiao Ran said about the lives of his friends. Severus was relieved. He liked the quiet life now, but Lily was a An extroverted little princess, although Potter hates arrogance and arrogance, he can make Lily happy, um... try not to slap your face when you meet her in the future!

As for Lucius, he still talked to him as usual, and often in front of a few Slytherins.

Severus guessed that it should be a struggle within the Death Eater family. As the right-hand man of the Dark Lord, the Malfoy family has a high status. There must be many people who covet that position, such as Estan who knocked on the door last time.Before Lucius graduated, he received an order from the Dark Lord himself. Those people would pay special attention to the situation of Lucius wooing him, whether it was for supervision or to find mistakes.

Thinking of this, Severus endured a platinum peacock hanging around every day with difficulty, but he could still understand from the increasingly strange taste of the beauty potion that his mood was not as peaceful as it seemed.

Of course, Lucius was quite happy with it.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, the end of the semester, the noises of playfulness that can be seen everywhere in Hogwarts disappeared, replaced by little wizards holding brick books, frowning enough to kill flies, and you can still hear them from time to time A roar of collapse.

Lily's goal is to be No.1 in the whole grade, so she canceled the activity program in the Response Room early and changed it to group review.

"Peter, what are the precautions for handling slugs?"

"Um...you want...to put on gloves?" Peter said uncertainly after thinking for a long time.

With a sound of "啪——", the thick brick book directly kissed the back of his head. Peter pitifully covered the injured part, and sat back beside his friends, and they, without exception, had They all swelled into a big bag.

"It's been half a month since I asked you to review, and you can't even answer such a simple question. Could it be that you secretly went to the Response Room at night?!" Lily counted one by one with her hips on her hips. In fact, she has always been a female tyrannosaurus rex. At this time, even the little wolf who is the lion's nemesis dare not easily rob her of her edge.

"I heard it was because they were caught going out for a night out last week, and they will have to work until the end of the term until the curfew." Severus said pretending not to care, seeing Lily show off his might and rob the foursome The scolding bloody head couldn't help a smile from the corner of his mouth—a soldier who surrenders without fighting, commonly known as, complaining, the method Xiao Ran told him was really effective.

Under Xiao Ran's daily teaching, Severus has turned from an absolute defeat to a semi-victory when confronting the Jiedao foursome. As long as he does not use force, Severus will never pay attention to the little lion provocative.Anyway, the little lion often blows his hair to get Lily's attention. As Lily's friend, of course he has to take care of it.

It's still a long way from trying to snatch his friend away!Severus was expressionless, but he thought gloatingly in his heart, he didn't notice that his mentality of liking the lion cub's hair upside down was exactly the same as Xiao Ran's, it was because he thought it was fun to watch the lion cub blowing fur, not because he was jealous!

James and Sirius had just improved a little towards Severus in their hearts, and after this complaint went on, they returned to the state of looking at each other and hating each other.Even though they hated to death in their hearts, they could only maintain a peaceful face in front of Lily, and only they knew all kinds of depression.

Severus didn't care much about this, anyway, they were rivals, and there was no question of whether the relationship would improve or not.Moreover, with the continuous expansion of the Dark Lord's power, he will one day confront the Order of the Phoenix, and the war will affect the entire magic world. His fights with Potter will be beneficial and harmless to the future.

After peace of mind, life passed faster, even though many little wizards no longer wanted to, the final exams still came as scheduled.

Both Severus and Lily are extremely down-to-earth people in their studies, their daily accumulation has long been able to meet the final exams, and they have even learned the content of the second and third semesters.After several exams, except for Peter, who had a slightly lower grade, who was frowning, everyone else was excited.

"I know most of the content. If I don't get the first place in the exam, I will spend all my playing time in the next semester.
