"Old bat... What's wrong with Professor Snape recently, he looks like he's going to go home..." Ron complained to them at the dining table after the new Monday's Potions class. , all the students in the school have gone through a round of Potions class.

Yi Renee froze and forked a piece of meat on the plate and placed it on her plate.He couldn't help but look at Harry who was still eating quietly, then retracted his gaze and sighed slightly.

Professor Snape hadn't recovered from the blow that Harry was going to die...

"Are you still going to learn that at night?" Elene pursed her lips and nodded when she heard Hermione's question.The Occlumency class is held once a week. In the last class, until the end, I tremblingly restrained myself from thinking about the memories that I didn't want Snape to see. Unexpectedly, it seemed that I found a lot of memories that I had forgotten. No idea when they'll learn Occlumency so I don't have to count the days.

Hermione looked back at the silence of the two and did not ask any more questions.Harry had explained to her and Ron the kidnapping of Elene that night, and they agreed that Harry must learn to the best of his ability.

"Pay attention, Potter!" Snape yelled at Harry who was in a daze with a sullen face. After a week, he found that he didn't seem to have improved at all, which made him hate iron even more.

Snape put down his wand and shifted his gaze to Elene, frowning, who was sticking something to her nose.

Yi Renee whispered a scent-blocking spell on the sticker on the bridge of her nose, sniffed it lightly, her eyes lit up, and the smell decreased a lot.I'm sorry, even though Snape was the one she liked, she couldn't understand the strange smell that was growing on him, which seemed to be a mixture of various exotic materials.

"...concentrate. 'Installation'."



"What should I call you?"

……

"Can I just call you Elena?"

……



Elene moved her eyes and tried to resist Snape's magic of reading her own memory.No, I can't let him see Elena... I can't let him know my biggest secret...

Snape frowned and looked at the picture in front of him. He knew the existence of Elena, and the communication between this person and himself was often in Elene's body.

But looking at her memory, it was clear that Elena was a different individual, one he had never met.

He couldn't help but increase the output of magic power, wanting to see that face.



"They will die."

……

"You say you are happy, but they will die."

……

"Voldemort's Horcruxes are..."

……

"Are not you afraid?"

……

"Don't fall in love with Snape, Elene."



"..." Elene panted heavily, a drop of cold sweat slipped from her ears, she didn't look at Snape's expression now, she pushed him away and fled out of the cellar.

Snape squeezed his wand slightly, and he didn't see the ghost's face until the end.It seems that Elene's talent is much better than Potter's.

"It's your turn, Potter." Snape turned to the stunned Harry and fixed his green eyes with cold, empty eyes.

"...I don't want to learn anymore..." Irene hid in the empty basement bathroom and sat down to wipe away her tears.This has become her secret base. Although no one came, it was kept clean by the house elves at Hogwarts.

Elena floated from her side to mid-air and stared at her.

After crying for a while and feeling better, she took out a honey candy from her school uniform pocket, stuffed it into her mouth, and tore off the paper tape attached to the bridge of her nose.

What if you don't learn?Directly join the Death Eaters?

Yi Renee looked at the candy wrapper and paper tape in her hand and sniffed.

If Voldemort caught her and learned of the prophecy and Harry's secret, her friends, family, everything she held dear would collapse.

Snape watched as Elene walked slowly back from the door she just ran out and sat back in her seat.

"...The Dark Lord will not give you a chance to dry your weak tears."

Yi Renee pursed her mouth when she heard his cold words, so in other words, did he acquiesce that he could vent his emotions at will?She rubbed her swollen eyes again and raised her head to face Snape calmly.

"'Inspiriting'."

"Don't eat." There was a cold voice suppressing anger in the corner.

Snape entered her memory.

Elene's eyes widened. This was the night she sneaked away the scattered desserts after the curfew.

Snape frowned as she sat on the ground with her knees tucked up, picked up a loose box and stuffed it into her mouth.

"...don't waste food, Irene..." Irene wiped her tears with the back of her hand that wasn't stained with crumbs. After swallowing the cake, she stared blankly at the half-remaining dessert box.

"Let me eat."

Yi Renee shook her head and breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's a good thing too, isn't it? We know he doesn't like desserts..."

"You have a fever. Go to the hospital."

Snape watched the ghost appear beside her, stared at her back and frowned. This guy floating in the air was very familiar to him, and it was actually the same as the woman in the crimson robe that Renee remembered before. different.

He still wanted to observe her appearance carefully, but Irene pushed him out of his memory.

"..." Yi Renee did not come back after leaving this time.

Harry watched Elene with a pale face and ran away again covering her face, and her resentment towards Snape deepened.

"...What did you do to her!"

"...focus on Potter."

Harry gritted his teeth looking at his expressionless face and the hollow and deep black eyes. Elene is his important friend...

"'Inspiriting'."

"'Armor Protection'!"

This time, his previous memories were not forced to appear in front of his eyes. He saw a man with a hooked nose yelling loudly at a woman lying on the ground, a little boy was crying next to him, and he saw a skinny man with greasy hair. The boy rode on an old broom and was pushed by the laughing girl beside him and said 'enough'!

Harry came back to realize that he had just seen Snape's childhood memory, and that was enough, not only the memory but also the present room.

"Isn't that an improvement? But I don't remember ever having you use the Iron Armor Charm, Potter!" Harry noticed from between the greasy strands of hair that hid his face that he was as pale as himself.

"...Continue next week!"

He stood up and was about to walk out the door when he heard Snape's gnashing of teeth sullenly from behind him.

"Don't let me see from other people the images you tell them, Potter."

"..." Harry took a few quick steps away from the cellar door and curled his lips. Like Snape, he didn't always conjecture maliciously about others.

"...Elene, are you okay?" Harry looked into the auditorium and saw her sitting alone on the seat staring at the pudding on the table in a daze.

"...I'm fine, why did you come out so early—" Yi Renee suddenly thought that she didn't seem qualified to say this, she shut her mouth instantly, her expression darkened.

"What memory did he see of you? It's too much. Why did Professor Dumbledore ask a male professor to teach you? What if he sees some secret memory—"

Harry watched in astonishment as Irene's face flushed instantly and she opened her mouth unable to speak.

"...I'm fine, Professor Snape...he didn't see my private memory Harry..." Elene endured the heat on her face and lifted his silencing spell and left the auditorium.

Harry frowned as he watched her leave quickly.

"...Harry, you're sleepwalking again... No—the Dark Lord is again—" Ron saw him standing in front of the window again when he was half asleep, and he suddenly woke up and asked in horror.

"...Go to sleep, Ron, I'll be asleep soon..." Harry looked out of the window at the calm Black Lake and the flat grass beside the Black Lake, and there was the Hufflepuff lounge underneath.He touched his heart, he didn't know why it didn't feel very comfortable after Irene left with a blushing face at night.

Elene was absent-mindedly stirring her porridge at breakfast the next day. She had Potions class today and was thinking about how to get along with Snape when a piece of bread wrapped in orange jam was pushed in front of her. .

"...Last night, I'm sorry..." Harry looked at Irene's puzzled smile, touched his face in embarrassment and turned his head away.

Hermione looked up at his seemingly red ears when she heard his words, and then looked at Irene who was happily eating breakfast and frowned.

It gets windy in November.Autumn doesn't come too late in the English Highlands, and trees lose their leaves overnight.On the way to the greenhouse one morning, Elene happened to see the Whomping Willow not far from the castle shaking its branches frantically a few times and shaking off all the leaves.

Elene's Occlumency practiced faster than Harry's, and now she is almost able to clear her brain before Snape's operation, but it's a pity that because of this she is not sure which of her memories will be brought out Recharging led to several times seeing childhood memories that have long been blurred.

"Miss Leoton, please keep it." Irene smiled and took the Hufflepuff and Quidditch team permission certificate from Umbridge with a sweet smile.This is the first regulation issued by Umbridge after she became the senior investigator of Hogwarts. Student organizations need to be re-examined by her before they can continue to operate in Hogwarts.If Cedric hadn't made it difficult to find himself, the application for the Hufflepuff team would have been put on hold for a long time.

"Excuse me, Professor Umbridge, I want to ask, when will the Gryffindor team certificate... be ready for me?" Elene was about to leave when Angelina poked her head out of the door. After seeing himself in the house, he froze for a while, but came in anyway.

Yi Renee paused as she was about to leave.

"Not long, Miss Johnson." Umbridge took a sip of the tea in front of him and replied lightly.

"...I wish I could teach sooner, we have a game next week, but it's not proven that we even practice-"

"Miss Johnson, this is something I can't cross, and needs to be notified by the Ministry of Magic."

Elene blinked her eyes when she heard her words, so why did the proofs for Hufflepuff and Slytherin be opened so quickly?She looked at Angelina's disappointed look and opened her mouth.

"Professor Umbridge, I'm Hufflepuff's Seeker. If the Gryffindor team can't play, our game time will also be affected. I hope you can..." Elene looked at her He glanced over at her and bent his mouth.

"...I understand Miss Leoton. If there is nothing else, please go back first. I will check the Gryffindor certificate later."

"...This disgusting woman..." Irene and Angelina went out together and heard her muttering viciously beside her.

"She is Slytherin, and the Slytherin certificate has been sent out long ago! It's not what she said she needs to connect with the Ministry of Magic! She just wants us to lose!" Angelina was so angry that her hair stood on end, and she shook hands After clenching his fists and roaring, he was embarrassed to find that Yi Renee hadn't left yet. "Thank you, Leoton." If she couldn't get the certificate today, she would have to go to Professor McGonagall.

She patted Irene on the shoulder in a good mood and strode away.

Elene returned to the Hufflepuff common room and handed the proof to Cedric. In the lounge, Hannah Abbott and several Hufflepuff students were having a heated discussion.

"Isn't it enough to ask Leoton to help?"

Elene was still talking to Cedric, and when she heard her name, she turned around suspiciously and saw Hannah slapping the poor freshman on the head angrily.

"... Hannah? What are you doing?" Elene and Cedric leaned over and looked at her disapproving action and the tears of little Badger holding his head because of the pain.

"...it's okay, Leoden, we're discussing things." Yilei Ni frowned and watched her forcefully smile as if nothing had happened, and smiled at them for a while and patted the head of the slapped little badger.

"If you have any trouble, you can come to me." She remembered that this was Derek Strauss, a Muggle-born badger who just entered school this year.

Derek stared blankly at the back of Yi Renee leaving, a blush appeared on his face, and he touched his head that hurt from the slap, and the pain was no longer there.

"How could it be possible to let Leoden know!" Hannah glanced at him in a daze and rolled her eyes. This freshman is really stupid.

"Why can't Leoden know?"

Hannah froze, she had forgotten that Cedric was there.

The author has something to say:

Hufflepuff's other threads have been buried for quite a long time, so I won't mention it in the main text, and there will be a separate introduction outside the episode!
