dumb wizard

The weather was getting colder, the lawn of Hogwarts had withered and yellow marks, and the north wind was as cold as a knife.

Xiu is a person who is afraid of the cold.He has a cold physique, and his palms are cold in summer, not to mention winter, his hands are as cold as popsicles.

He had just entered October, and he wrapped himself in a thick sweater and padded jacket, revealing only a small face the size of a palm, which was flushed red from the cold, which aroused pity.It's a pity that he still doesn't know how to keep warm, so he can only hide indoors as much as possible except adding clothes desperately.

The temperature in the cellar is even lower. Every time Xiu goes to the cellar for confinement, he has to stand on the stairs and struggle for a long time before climbing down slowly.Snape's office never lit a fireplace, and didn't even cast a warming spell. Xiu knew that this was because many potion ingredients had to be stored at low temperature, and Professor Snape himself was not afraid of the cold.

Since October, every Monday, Wednesday and Friday, the confinement that Xiu was looking forward to turned into a torment, but he was stubborn and never showed the slightest bit in front of Snape.

Knocking on the cellar door, Xiu heard footsteps coming from the door, and then the door was suddenly opened.Before Xiu had time to look at him, he had already turned around and walked back on his own, without even saying a word.

Xiu noticed that he was not in a good mood, and secretly told himself to be careful not to provoke him, so as not to suffer disaster.

It’s so cold!

Rubbing his hands together indiscriminately, he glanced at Snape.

The black-haired man was still sitting behind the desk, frowning as tightly as possible, as if nothing in the world could make him feel comfortable.His face was gloomy, his thin lips were pursed into a straight line, and his usually oily hair looked even worse today.

Xiu noticed that he was scratching the parchment harder than he had seen before, and he was even more sure that he was in a bad mood!

damn it!What are these? !Damn Gryffindor trolls!Damn Dumbledore!Damn Potter!

Snape scribbled a big T again on the parchment of some poor exasperated Gryffindor lion cub.

Damn Albus Dumbledore!snort!Had he worried that he had forgotten to protect that stupid Harry Potter?I even went to talk to him today!

Principal room.

The black figure blew into the principal's office like a whirlwind, and the man's face was as gloomy as the sky before a storm, "Albus Dumbledore! Damn it! You better have enough reasons to explain why you destroyed my potion of potions." reason!"

"Oh, Severus, my boy, here you come." Dumbledore had grown accustomed to his venom over the years, and he had completely filtered out this level of venom.

"I'm not your child!" Snape retorted, and a silent and wandless spell passed over, turning the golden-red sofa next to him into silver-green, and sat down.

Dumbledore ignored his protest again, and began to routinely sell his sweets with a smile, "Oh, Severus, this is Honeydukes' latest barley magic candy, there are many flavors, do you want to try it? It was delicious!"

Snape's face turned even darker, "Dumbledore, put away your sweets, don't think that everyone has unique tastes like you. If you have anything to say, hurry up!"

Dumbledore stuffed a bright red candy into his mouth contentedly, and smacked his lips, "Oh, that's such a pity, you know, these candies are really delicious."

The veins on Snape's forehead twitched happily, "Dumbledore, if you don't talk about business, you'll have to cook the anti-moth potion for this semester!"

Dumbledore pulled back immediately, "Oh, oh, no, Severus, you can't embarrass an old man like this. Well," Dumbledore's expression became serious, "Severus, next year Harry will Come to Hogwarts."

Snape's heart moved, and the black eyes that were still a little angry suddenly became empty, "So what?"

"Severus, he is Lily's son, you know, his eyes are very similar to Lily's, beautiful green." Dumbledore said reminiscently.

Snape interrupted him irritably, "Enough! Dumbledore, since I promised to protect that damned Potter, I won't break my promise. Don't mention Lily to me!"

Lily, his sin!

Dumbledore's eyes flashed behind his glasses, "Of course, Severus, of course I believe you."

Snape stood up, his eyes were cold and empty, "I have nothing else to do and I'm leaving."

"Oh, Severus, I heard you were helping that kid with his after-school tutoring?" Dumbledore said just in time before Snape left the headmaster's office.

It is said that?Listen to whom?The reason for repairing to the cellar has always been confinement.laugh!Those ubiquitous portraits!

"I think it's my freedom which student I want to tutor. Is there any rule in Hogwarts that does not allow professors to tutor students?" Snape said coldly.

Dumbledore smiled kindly, "Of course. Hugh is a lovely boy, isn't he?"

"It's none of my business if he's cute! Dumbledore, what are you trying to say?" Snape was impatient.

"It's nothing, Severus, I remember you still have class later, don't you? Potions class in the third year."

Damn old bee!

Snape left quickly, his black robes swaying gracefully and imposingly in waves behind him.Behind him, Dumbledore's blue eyes flashed wildly behind the glasses.

For more than a month, under the guidance of Snape, with his own hard work and extraordinary talent, Xiu has learned both Charms and Transfiguration well.Although he was not as effective as some young wizards in the same grade because he learned the difficult silent spells, Xiu, who was always content and happy, was very satisfied with his learning results.

After practicing today's content, Xiu put away his wand and walked to the desk.

Snape was used to his eccentricity of never leaving straight away after his tutoring, and said without looking up, "Babbletuber, I hope your clumsy troll-like hands don't fail to handle this."

Snape continued to face the papers written by those trolls who seemed not to understand English, his brows never relaxed.

After three seconds, feeling that Xiu was still standing in front of him, Snape finally raised his head and said with a cold expression: "Mr. White, are your feet stuck to the ground by slug mucus and you can't move? Didn't you hear me?" Shall you deal with the babo tubers over there?"

It is very wronged to repair the deflated mouth.

It wasn't him who made him unhappy, why was he always attacked by Snape's venom? !

The grievances are grievances, but Xiu still remembers his purpose.

Take out a pen and paper and write: "Professor Snape, you seem to be in a bad mood, is there anything I can do for you?"

Snape's eyes flashed, but his face was still as dark as twilight, "Mr. White, this is not something you should care about. You have two choices now, deal with the potion ingredients or go back to the Ravenclaw tower immediately."

Xiu was stimulated by his venom and his mood index plummeted, his delicate eyebrows and eyes drooped down, looking so pitiful that people thought Snape had done something to him.

Snape looked at him coldly, not at all moved by his expression.

Xiu suddenly walked in the direction of the door, Snape looked at him coldly, without the slightest intention to hold back.

Xiu opened the door, the cold wind came in, Xiu shivered suddenly, walked out resolutely, and closed the door gently.

Snape behind the desk had the same gloomy expression as usual, without even moving his eyebrows, he lowered his head and scratched a T on the top parchment, forcefully penetrating the back of the paper.

Time passed bit by bit, and the stacks of parchment on Snape's desk finally moved from the right to the left.

He snapped his fingers, and with a "poof", a house elf with big ears and long nose appeared in front of him.The elf's forehead was a little swollen, as if he had just punished himself for something.

"Milla serves Professor Snape. Oh! Professor Snape summoned Meera, it's an honor for Meera!" The house elf flapped its big ears, and the eyes as big as tennis balls were filled with tears of excitement.

Snape frowned, "Give me a cup of black coffee."

"Yes, Professor Snape!" Mira disappeared in an instant, and then appeared again soon, holding a cup of steaming black coffee in her hand.

Snape sipped his bitter coffee, his eyes drifting unconsciously to the sofa.

Every time that kid comes, he always sits on the smallest sofa, practicing magic relentlessly with a wand. Every little success will make him smile happily, and then he will shower him with unceremonious blows. venom.

There was a sudden knock on the door in the silent darkness, Snape frowned, he couldn't think of who would knock on the door at such a late hour, feel carefully, this familiar wave of magic power...

Standing up to open the door, the poison was sprayed unscrupulously, "Mr. White, what is the important thing that makes you linger at the door of your poor potions professor's office on such a cold night? Maybe with your pitifully small brain capacity, Mr. White Not enough for you to remember your way back to Ravenclaw Tower?"

Xiu at the door was carrying a large tray filled with steaming midnight snacks. Xiu's thin body shivered uncontrollably in the cold wind of the night. He tried his best to flatter the man's cloudy face above his head. laugh.

Snape noticed that he was trembling, his brows furrowed even tighter, and he stepped aside, "Come in!"

Xiu walked into the door quickly, for fear that he would go back on his word.

Snape closed the door, his lips twitched a few times, the fire flickered, the fireplace ignited a raging flame, and the temperature in the cellar immediately rose a lot.

"What are you doing here?" Snape asked impatiently.

Xiu didn't dare to neglect, and quickly wrote his answer, "Professor, I see that you are in a bad mood, and I didn't see you go to the auditorium during dinner. I think you must not have dinner, so I made you some supper. You It’s better to eat something if you often stay up late to make potions.”

Snape swallowed back the venom that was approaching his mouth, and changed into a more gentle tone, "I don't need to bother you, Mr. White, the house elves at Hogwarts are not decorations."

Xiu wrote again: "I think the food made by the house elves is too greasy and not suitable for supper. Besides, Professor, you have been eating irregularly for many years, and you have been with potions. There must be a lot of toxins in your body, and you need gentle detoxification It is better to drink less stimulating drinks like coffee.”

Snape raised his eyebrows gracefully, "Mr. White, are you questioning my living habits? Who gave you this right? Tell me, huh?"

Xiu trembled.

hateful!Doesn't he know that it's too seductive for him to make such a sexy ending with such a low and silky voice?

"I just care about you, professor." Xiu wrote, looking at him with eyes like "you don't know good people, I'm wronged".

Snape twitched his lips, and finally sat down to enjoy his supper.

Naturally, he was very satisfied, the (formerly) skills of the chefs in seven-star hotels are not covered.

The light porridge paired with simple and nutritious side dishes was delicious even for a meat eater like Snape.

After supper, Snape summoned the house elves to collect the dishes, and then unceremoniously drove Xiu back to the Ravenclaw Tower.

Damn Snape, cross the river and tear down the bridge!

Xiu grinned at the snake on the cellar door.
