The Snake Wife of the HP Professor

Ch.17: Mindfulness

Snape listened blankly to Malfoy's prophecy, which was so impressive to this day, that he had given his life for it.Even though he was no longer a double agent, the prophecy was heard, and then the Dark Lord must pay whatever it took to find the boy, and after that...

"Although I think Trelawney is a liar, Dumbledore seems to believe him." Malfoy seemed a little impatient, and said in a hurry.

On this side, after Zenobia treated little Black, greeted him, and entered the room a little tiredly—the infernal poison is not easy to get rid of. After all, her current strength is not as good as before. After the treatment, the mental strength is exhausted, but fortunately, it can be recovered after half a day of rest.

As soon as she entered the room, Silver Snake was sensitive to the fact that the atmosphere was not right, especially her contractor - she had been with her day and night for so many years, so she could easily detect the emotional ups and downs of the other party - the whole body was depressed and gloomy, vaguely desperate The breath made her startled, and she immediately swam in front of the other party, even ignoring Malfoy who was beside him, and squatted cross-tailed against the man's legs, wrapping his hands gently around his clenched fists.

Zenobia didn't try to express consolation with words: first, Malfoy was still talking about things; second, she was actually not very good at comforting others with words.All she can do is to accompany her silently and firmly, so that her companion will never fight alone.

It was only when Malfoy realized that something was wrong with Snape that he asked uncertainly, "Severus?"

When the girl's soft hands came up, Snape felt that the rapidly falling body seemed to be gently supported by something, and then pulled him out of the maze of memory.

"I'm fine." Shaking his head slightly at Malfoy, Snape leaned back against his somewhat stiff body on the back of the sofa. His clenched left hand had already relaxed, and he even held the girl's hand instead. His free right hand was very It naturally landed on the soft and silky black hair of the silver snake, and stroked it gently, "The prophecy...how did you know?" Last time, he was the only one who overheard the prophecy besides Dumbledore, and then He told the Dark Lord.It was because of his informant that led to Lily's death. Compared with the loss of love, the guilt and guilt of killing the person he cared about overwhelmed him even more, so he devoted his whole life to atone for his sin.

I thought that this time, without his eavesdropping and informant, everything would be different—even if it meant that the war might be infinitely protracted, but the Dark Lord who split the Horcrux and went completely crazy is destined to perish.One day, the magic world will restore the tranquility and peace it deserves.

Severus Snape will be completely liberated from the sins of the past and have his own life.He was, indeed, a selfish, sinister and cunning Slytherin, however, he would not be ashamed of it.After all, it is enough for the savior to have a great white wizard and a righteous Gryffindor.Slytherin, you just need to protect your own treasures.

Seeing his friend's actions, and seeing the snake-tailed girl lying docilely on the man's lap like a small animal, Malfoy was dumbfounded, but this is not the time to joke, he quickly collected his thoughts and looked at Zenobia: "You know, as I mentioned earlier, the suddenly appearing Donald is very suspicious. So last time, I asked Zenobia to help me make a small alchemy product," Snape's sharp eyes made him He coughed a little guilty, "...Anyway, a few days ago I discovered his whereabouts sneakily, so I found a chance to put something on him."

Zenobia's alchemy is very sophisticated, and the principles and magic patterns used are quite different from those here, so Malfoy was able to listen to that prophecy smoothly.

"That person knows it!" Snape said firmly after a moment of silence.

At this time, Malfoy suddenly laughed: "It seems that Severus, like Dumbledore, felt that... the prophecy might come true! Although this is really absurd, this prophecy comes at the right time. Maybe we It's time to make some preparations, no matter it's true or not... you won't suffer any losses."

Snape lowered his eyes, ran his fingers through the girl's long hair, and combed it carefully.What Malfoy wanted to do, he didn't have the heart to find out.Now he only needs to solve one problem, which is how to keep Lily's life—he still owes her a life—perhaps, he should start with Peter Pedilu.It's just not safe enough. Although history has shifted, it seems to stick to the original line stubbornly at certain times.

"Hayes..."

After Malfoy left, Snape had been sitting on the sofa in a daze.Zenobia was quietly by his side - one of her hands was still tightly held by the man - not to mention she was very worried about him, through the prophecy Malfoy said, and then contacted the "plot" in her mind ", Silver Snake probably knew what was going to happen.

"Hayes."

Zenobia smiled, her soft body suddenly fell down at an astonishing angle, and she lay gently on the man's lap—she was just thinking that physical touch seemed to be more able to soothe people's emotions, after all, just now When Mr. was feeling uncomfortable, didn't he just hold her hand and stroke her hair!She said softly: "Sir, you are so indecisive today... I heard what Malfoy said, if you want me to help you with something, just say it!"

Snape hooked his lips reluctantly, and after a moment of silence, he said slowly, "Before I came back, I was actually dead..."

Zenobia was stunned for a moment, then suddenly, she rubbed her head against the man's leg, and then quietly waited for the man to continue talking.

With a dry tone, he briefly talked about the life of a double agent without any waves: a miserable childhood, a tortuous teenager, a desperate youth...and then died when the wizard was not yet middle-aged.

"Sir..." Silver Snake murmured.It's strange, obviously she knew that this person had experienced a life of extreme forbearance and pain, and even though Snape said it lightly and acted as if he didn't care, but she felt sad, so sad that her heart twisted, and it hurt like It's about to explode.

Snape was stunned for a moment, raised his hand, stroked the corner of the girl's eyes hesitantly, and gently wiped away the silently falling tears: "Why are you crying?" His voice was stiff, but the corners of his mouth slightly lifted : What a silly girl.

Zenobia's eyes widened suddenly: Did she cry?How can it be?No matter how human she looks, she is still not human.She will be sad, and occasionally she is so sad that she wants to cry, but the Yinlian family will not shed tears unless he (she)... is emotional, and only when she is willing to live and die for this love, Yinlian will shed tears.

When she first learned about Yinlian's trait, Zenobia only thought it was very funny, because she thought of the white lady, and vaguely remembered what the white snake said to the green snake, probably, the snake demon can't cry, only the real Only when you understand human emotions, you will know what tears are, and then the snake demon will no longer be a demon after all.

The silver snake shed more tears.She thought, although she was not a snake demon, what the White Snake said was really reasonable.She never shed tears when she was neglected and abandoned by her parents in her previous life. She never shed tears when she was suddenly reincarnated in another world and forcibly forced herself to get used to the snake life.Now, just a few short words for others, because of a distant past, I feel so distressed that tears fall involuntarily...

——But, I was moved.Even before she was aware of it, she gave this affection in a daze.

Snape looked helplessly at the weeping Zenobia—there was no vitality at all, the girl was crying quietly—his heart was filled with an extremely soft emotion, and Silver Snake was obviously feeling sorry for him. , making him feel that the pain of the past has disappeared in this instant, and the sins of the previous life have become insignificant.

There is such a girl, God gave her a beautiful appearance, a lovely temperament, and extraordinary abilities.She deserves the best of everything.But such a girl will help you take care of the trivial things in life, will quietly accompany you when you are bored, and will cry for your long-gone suffering...

What more can I ask for!

With clumsy fingers but careful to wipe away the girl's tears as if afraid of breaking the other party, Snape felt a little distressed, this was the first time he saw the other party cry!He felt ecstasy again, as well as a kind of buoyant complacency... Mixed emotions prompted him to do something.

Zenobia was stunned, because of the warm touch at the corner of her eyes, and... the fine snort—it was a kiss, short and shallow.

Almost immediately, Snape sat up straight suddenly, and quickly drew his hands back, hanging unnaturally by his sides.Seeing Zenobia's unbelievable expression, the man's originally soft heart suddenly felt a sense of embarrassment. The bitter feeling forced him to use Occlumency to keep calm, and he said stiffly: "I still want to be on my lap!" When will you lie down?"

Zenobia's cheeks became hot -- she didn't think it mattered before, but the emotion she just noticed made her feel a strong sense of shame -- she got up extremely quickly, swam her tail subconsciously, and separated from Snapela. a distance.

Silver Snake was just at a loss, for the sudden discovery of emotion, he kissed the man with unknown meaning.She was immersed in her personal emotions, but she didn't notice Snape's suddenly empty eyes the moment she wandered away.

The awkward atmosphere lingered for a long time, until Zenobia couldn't stand it any longer, and she took a peek at the man, who lowered his eyelids, and his expression was as cold as usual.Wanting to detect the man's emotions, but only feel the silence and alienation of the other party.

The ambiguity just now seemed to be just an illusion.The young girl who had just moved her heart drooped her head in frustration, and suddenly remembered the little Blake who was still lying under the tree, so she said to Snape eagerly: "I'll go and see Mr. Blake..."

The man staring at the book didn't respond.Zenobia was a little embarrassed, hesitated for a while, then swung the snake's tail and swam out of the living room.Half an hour later, the girl pushed the young man's wheelchair back to the living room.Snape closed an unturned page.
