dumb wizard

Halloween Eve.

Hogwarts Castle is filled with the sweet smell of pumpkins, the spacious auditorium is full of colorful decorations, and the night sky on the ceiling is dotted with stars.

A thousand bats flapped their wings flutteringly under the ceiling, and a thousand dark clouds enveloped the auditorium in darkness, and rich and delicious food suddenly emerged from the golden plates on the dining table.

Toffee apples, candied corn, fried pumpkin seeds, popcorn, pumpkin pie, spiced gingerbread and other special Halloween foods are on the table, as well as the essential fruit feast.

Hugh was still sitting at the end of the long Ravenclaw table, listening casually to Dumbledore's speech, and sighed in his heart that this Halloween might be the most peaceful Halloween he had spent in Hogwarts.Harry Potter will enter school next year, and Halloween every year is like being cursed, and every time it is not a mess.

Dumbledore finally finished his incomprehensible emotion and gave the order to move.

The delicious Halloween dinner made the little wizards very satisfied, and they were discussing about the Halloween masquerade party while eating, and even the proud Slytherin snakes couldn't hide their excitement.

Xiu picked up some fruit and put it on his plate, slowly forked it up, put it in his mouth, chewed it, swallowed it, forked it up again, put it in his mouth, chewed it, swallowed it, and repeated this action mechanically.

It's so troublesome, why isn't it over yet!

Xiu secretly complained in his heart, pretending to casually glance at Snape on the professor's chair.

Well, Hugh bet the fruit on his plate that he must have not washed his hair for more than three days. It looked greasy. No wonder the little wizards called him a greasy old bat behind his back.

Snape's face was very ugly, a little more gloomy than usual, Hugh guessed it was because Dumbledore next to him had been trying to persuade him to try those horrible desserts.This obviously affected Snape's appetite, and Hugh saw that the food on the plate in front of him was barely touched.

Originally, he was just watching secretly, but without realizing it, Xiu's gaze stayed on Snape more and more openly, until the other party glared at him viciously, then he lowered his eyes and focused on his dinner plate embarrassingly.

mean!How about letting him take a look?

Xiu angrily ravaged the innocent fruit with a fork.

At this time, Xiu still didn't realize why the always withdrawn self would always unconsciously show a childish side in front of Snape, and why the self who didn't like to force anything would make capricious requests to Snape time and time again. I don't know why my eyes always linger on this gloomy man that everyone avoids.

The sumptuous dinner was over, and Dumbledore announced that the Halloween masquerade would start in one hour, and the little wizards from the four colleges went back to the dormitory to change their costumes.

Xiu avoided everyone, hesitated for a while in the branching corridor, then turned around and walked towards the road leading to Hufflepuff's basement.

People who don't have enough to eat will definitely have a bad temper, so he let Professor Snape fill his stomach first, so as not to face a grumpy professor.

Xiu Ru thought about it.

Half an hour later, Xiu carried the tray and walked silently to the cellar.

Why does he look like he is going to have a private meeting with his lover?Still with food!

Such a thought suddenly popped up in Xiu's head, he was startled, and quickly shook his head to throw out this absurd idea.

Knocking on the cellar door, Xiu carefully raised the tray and looked at Snape with a gloomy face with a smile on his face.

Snape frowned, seeing him struggling to lift the tray full of steaming food, he stretched out his long arm, "Come in!"

Xiu Pidianpidian followed in, and the door behind him closed automatically.

Snape put the tray on the table, turned his head for a while, and saw Xiu sitting on his own small sofa spontaneously, looking at him with a smile.

What the hell is this kid doing here? !

Xiu pointed to the delicacies he made by himself on the tray, and then pointed to Snape, making a gesture of inviting him to eat.

Snape involuntarily swallowed the venom he was about to export.

Every time when he saw Shubi stroking, but unable to utter a sound, and looking at him with a smile, it was really difficult for Snape to refuse his request, especially if this request was purely for the sake of his body.

Xiu shook his little head, watching Snape eat gracefully and quickly, he felt an indescribable sense of satisfaction in his heart, which made his left chest ache.

On a whim, Xiu took out a pen and notebook, and wrote: "Professor, I will be in charge of your daily dinner from now on?"

Snape glanced at him coldly, "Oh? Could it be that Mr. White is not doing a good job as a wizard, but wants to experience what it's like to be a house elf?"

Xiu pursed his lips, and wrote again: "No! I just feel that Professor Snape taught me so much, and I feel uneasy. And Professor, you don't take care of yourself at all! Look, how much hair should you have? It’s beautiful, but you don’t cherish it at all, and your face is pale and yellow. You haven’t left the crucible for a long time, and you have accumulated a lot of toxins in your body. If this continues…” Xiu suddenly stopped writing, and stopped writing.

If this goes on, you will collapse before that damned snake Nagini bites you to death.

Xiu turned pale.

This kind of life is so comfortable that he almost forgets that this world is not safe, the shadow of the Dark Lord is still hanging over the wizarding world, and the man before him who can make him feel at ease will eventually die with his miserable life and be buried in the Under the loess.

Snape was annoyed by Hugh's accusation of his living habits, and was about to speak sarcasticly, but he saw that Hugh's cheeks had lost all color, turned pale as paper, and his eyes were empty and bewildered.

"..." Snape frowned, "Damn it! What's wrong with you?"

Xiu came back to his senses in a daze, and looked at him blankly.

This person, will this person die?

Seven years, another seven years, this man who always has a gloomy face, who always makes sarcasm in every word, finds all kinds of excuses to deduct points, but has a soft heart, will die and be buried in the cold land , no one erected a monument of a hero for him, and even few people would remember him, and even if they remembered, they would just lightly mention "ah, that Hogwarts Potions professor, greasy old bat, It's horrific." That said.

Xiu never thought of changing the plot, and unlike many people, he did not have any sympathy or admiration for Snape's forbearance, affection, and bravery. At most, after entering the wizarding world, he was sure that this man could Trust and not shy away from getting closer to him.

As mentioned earlier, Xiu believed in his previous life that everyone should be responsible for their own choices. Since Snape chose to join the Death Eaters, and later chose to be a spy to protect Harry Potter, then everything he did would be responsible. It is a matter of course.

Whatever the outcome, that was Snape's choice.

But now, he felt a throbbing pain in his chest because this man would die on the battlefield one day, and he was so uncomfortable that he wanted to shed tears.

It turns out that there is always a difference between reading novels and real contact.

This Snape would seriously teach him magic, even though he always sprayed venom impatiently, would mock his every request, but still compromise again and again, would eat all the food he made, and even a compliment was so awkward.

Can he really watch Snape go down the road of no return, be misunderstood, and finally die under the snake's teeth without doing anything? In fact, the answer is obvious.Xiu was not kind, and he didn't want to take the position of Harry Potter's savior, but he couldn't help watching Snape follow Aunt Rowling's script.

Being in the game and being an outsider are still very different after all.

repair sigh.

Snape was surprised by the overly complex emotions in his amber eyes. An 11-year-old child, no matter how much he had experienced, could not have such vicissitudes and helplessness in his eyes.

Seeing him sigh silently, Snape's heart skipped a beat.

Xiu finally made up his mind, and his eyes became clear. Seeing Snape looking at him strangely, he couldn't help touching his face, and asked him what was wrong with his face.

Snape concealed the doubts in his heart and the strange feeling that he had never had before, "Mr. White, I don't think you need to question my living habits. If you make further progress, I won't mind shutting you out. .”

Alright alright.Xiu thought, his proposal did exceed Snape's bottom line, and it was reasonable for this guarded man not to agree.

However, it should be okay to bring some late-night snacks occasionally, right?

Hogwarts Hall.

"Hey! Why didn't you see Xiu?" Yavit Milan, who was dressed as a book, patted the prefect Ansair on the shoulder and asked.

Ansair shrugged, "I don't know. I haven't seen him after the dinner. He probably doesn't like this kind of occasion. He should hide somewhere." Ansair was pretending to be an old scholar.

"Oh, I still want to see how he will dress up! The cunning Xiu actually slipped away." Yavit muttered, and Ansair thumped his shoulder, "Don't complain, I'm not going yet With your dance partner."

"Ansair, you are not the same. You left your beautiful partner and ran here to be quiet." Yavit said, "But Belinna is really eye-catching in her dress, brother, you are blessed!"

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Ansair kicked him, "Get lost!"

"Tsk tsk! Angry from embarrassment!" Yavit winked, not worried about offending his friend at all.
