Chapter 3 A Good Time to Hide and Seek

"Squeak-"

"boom."

The new head of Slytherin walked aggressively through the dark and empty living room. The small and empty space did not prevent the youngest head from rolling the black waves on his sleeves even more awe-inspiring.The wave kept surging towards the bedroom, passed the round table and wooden chairs, and stopped in front of the fireplace.

Obscure eyes fell on the sofa.The little girl who was stared at fell asleep unconsciously. If it weren't for the slight ups and downs of her small chest under the blanket, her quietness and paleness would be no different from death.A petrified cat stood on a small table opposite her, staring at her with frightened eyes.

A malicious smile twisted Snape's lips.He didn't deny that it was his handwriting to petrify the unknown creature and place it in front of the unknown humanoid creature - a pair of eyes full of fear would be the best gift for her to wake up.

【"I'm sorry, I need to sleep."

"While I'm asleep, can you please take care of Xiao Hei? It won't be too long."]

Damn it won't be long!

This is the No. 20 six days that this little monster has slept through!

Snape stared at her blankly for a moment, then turned and shut himself in the room.

In the past half a month or so, Snape tried several times to throw this troublesome little girl in his eyes to Dumbledore or Madam Pomfrey in the medical wing, but they all failed.

They refused on the grounds that the war was not yet fully over and that other places were not safe for children.

Ha, what a high-sounding reason, as if the notorious Spider's End is such a safe place.

This also made his bad mood even more gloomy.

A few days ago, St. Mungo's physicians came to the same conclusion as Madam Pomfrey's about this unknown humanoid creature, an ordinary human child between five and six years old, with no magical powers, that is to say, It's just an ordinary Muggle cub.

But damn it, has anyone ever seen a [regular] Muggle baby that appeared in such a bizarre way and was still breathing after being lethargic for a month?

The therapist who graduated from Ravenclaw pointedly said to Snape that for underage children, especially this kind of children who are still young, it is necessary to get adequate nutrition and do outdoor sports appropriately. is very necessary.

Snape stared at him with vacant but distinctly startling eyes, until the healer sneered and backed out of the Snake King's territory, slamming the door so close it nearly knocked his nose flat.

Think that little thing on the sofa is his illegitimate daughter?Hmph, idiot with pink gossip on his head.

Snape cut the nettle root with a deadpan expression, the quick flickering of the knife making a crisp thud.

Grass fringe, leeches, spotted tiger grass, chrysalis, bicorn horn powder... strange items were added to the crucible one after another, and the bubbling liquid began to turn into an intoxicating color.

Suddenly, Snape stopped stirring. Although he took remedial measures in time, the color of the potion was not perfect.

He wants to see who is so bold as to disturb him at this time!

Snape walked quickly to the door with a sullen face, and pulled the door open.

A small figure stood at the door, rubbing his eyes, stepping on the floor with his bare feet, without making a sound.

"Mr Snape, good afternoon."

Mo put down his hand rubbing his eyes, and raised his head to look at this man who was too tall for her.Long black hair fell neatly from her shoulders, without a trace of waking up mess.

Her eyes were pure black, with a sort of unreal hollowness to them.

And Snape's eyes also revealed a trace of surprise and then turned into a deep, empty dead silence. At first glance, the two pairs of eyes were actually somewhat similar.

"who are you?"

Snape's wand was silently held in his hand, no matter his actions or words, he clearly expressed his guard against this humanoid creature of unknown race in front of him.

Snape was sure that he hadn't revealed any personal information to her 26 days ago, and she was asleep when he returned half an hour ago, and she hadn't stepped out of the living room since she woke up— None of the warning spells cast throughout the house were touched.

So, how did she know her last name?

Several conjectures were rejected one by one, Snape added a piece of armor to protect himself calmly, and the wand under the sleeve began to glow with a glimmer of light.

However, the person being questioned did not feel the slightest nervousness.

Mo just looked up at him, tilted his head and asked.

"Have you forgotten, sir? I introduced myself when we first met. My name is Mo, and I am a stranger."

"However, according to the standards of this world, I'm probably some kind of magical creature produced by human mutation."

Snape narrowed his eyes slightly.

Magical creature?It's not that they haven't considered this possibility, but whether it's blood samples or body shape, she is no different from ordinary humans.

Mo seemed to know what he was thinking, she laughed with childish slyness and complacency.

"I'm a soul mutant, so there won't be any abnormalities in my body."

soul?Snape frowned.

Before the vicious verbal counterattack could be uttered, Snape felt another heaviness on his shoulders.

"Hey, hey, Mr. Snape, look, you made Mo's little black like this, can you change it back?"

The immature voice sounded next to his ears, and Snape stretched out his hand and pinched Mo's ankle, and the magic that had been ready to go shot directly at the white figure on his shoulder through the black sleeve robe.

hit!

Snapped……

Snape stared at the little girl innocently holding up the petrified kitten to block the spell, and couldn't react for a while.

"Ah, Blackie!"

Mo suddenly screamed.

But the growing crack did not consider the pet owner's feelings at all. It spread on the surface of the petrified cat's tail, and cracked open with tooth-piercing stinging sounds.

Mo looked at the small piece of the cat's tail left in his hand, and at Xiao Hei who bounced on the ground a few times, pursed his mouth, and looked like he was about to cry.

The young Potions professor felt like he was bullying a child.

He let go of the hand that was holding her, and turned his head uncomfortably.

But suddenly he heard a burst of laughter, the little girl stepped on his shoulder and jumped down, grabbed the petrified kitten on the ground and jumped onto the test platform behind him.

She didn't forget to look up and give him a big smile as she passed Snape.

"I lied to you."

Snape's face suddenly darkened like the sky before a storm.

But Mo restrained her smile, lowered her head and fiddled with Xiao Hei's two petrified bodies, trying to piece them together. After a while of hard work, she seemed to think of something, turned around and jumped off the test bench, stopped in front of the medicine cabinet, and stretched out her hand.

"Don't touch it, the spell on it is enough to make you..." Snape's words stopped suddenly, because he heard her recite the spell without any mistakes, and opened the door of the medicine cabinet in front of him, the master.

Snape's face twisted slightly, and he walked towards her menacingly.

"You little bastard..."

"Stingy." Mo, who took out a bottle of potion and closed the cabinet door, turned around and said to Snape.

Snape was so angry that he directly stretched out his hand to grab her, but she dodged nimbly and jumped to the other end of the test bench at a speed that Snape had no time to react.

Mo put the little black in the skirt, its tail, and the small bottle of potion on the table, raised his head and repeated to Snape, "Uncle Penny."

Snape began to grind his teeth, the syllable of the Killing Curse was in his mouth, but he still couldn't spit it out.

In any case, he couldn't lay hands on an innocent little girl.

Snape watched the little girl uncork the bottle seriously and pour the adhesive on the petrified kitten's tail, and sighed inwardly.No matter what, at least in terms of xinxing, this child is indeed just a child.

While trying to glue Blackie's tail back, Mo secretly raised his head and glanced at Snape, as if wondering why he didn't take the opportunity to attack.

Snape showed a very distorted smile, Mo seemed to be taken aback, grabbed Hei and jumped onto the side cabinet, ready to escape at any time, but saw Snape walking to the crucible, adding the ingredients that he hadn't had time to add before. Add it in and fix this dying pot of Polyjuice Potion.

Mo sat on the tall cabinet swinging his feet, quietly observing Snape's every move.The glued little black stone statue stood beside him, still struggling in fear.

Mo didn't ask until Snape bottled the prepared potion.

"Can you help me turn Blackie back, Mr. Snape."

Snape glanced at her, snorted and walked out.

But before he stepped out of the room, the corner of the robe was grabbed.Snape looked down and saw Mo looking up at him with clear, pure black eyes.

There seemed to be a ripple in Snape's eyes, but it disappeared quickly.

There was a slight crack in the fireplace, followed by a cough.

"Severus, it's time for you to clean your fireplace." The old wizard waved his wand to clean himself up twice, but the blue eyes under the half-moon glasses froze suddenly as they swept across the sofa.

Snape's expression was blank, and he was habitually running Occlumency at full capacity when facing the old man.He felt the child beside him hide behind him.

She's afraid of Dumbledore?

Snape was a little surprised, but didn't show it at all.

"Severus, is your little guest finally awake?"

"Dumbledore, that's not my guest, she's just an illegal intruder." Snape pointed out mercilessly, "Also, if you dislike my fireplace, you don't have to come here."

"Oh, Severus, how can you be so harsh on an old man." The greatest white wizard of this century walked to the sofa and sat down as if at home.He saw a small piece of white fabric emerging from Snape's back, and Snape's rigidity was telling.

The old man smiled kindly, "Mo, come out, now is not a good time to play hide-and-seek."
