[Comprehensive HP colleagues] That year

Chapter 16 Squibs and Hybrids

After the Potions incident, Sirius completely stopped thinking about transferring.Xia Kelin came to him many times, and Sirius was perfunctory at first, but when Xia Kelin came to ask him how he was thinking for the seventh time, he finally told the truth.

"Shakelin, you don't need to persuade me. I've decided. I won't transfer. Firstly, Hogwarts has no precedent for transferring. Secondly, I'm really fed up with those people in Slytherin. Potions class You were at the scene when they made a sneak attack, and the villain complained first! I don’t want to go even if it’s Ravenclaw, that Edith Malfoy is in Ravenclaw.”

After speaking, ignoring Xia Kelin stomping her feet angrily, she turned around and pulled James away.

In the first half month of school, Sirius and James have definitely become the most influential figures in the first year of Hogwarts: in the first Transfiguration class, they completely turned matches into needles. Professor McGonagall, who is known for his strictness, bluntly said that It was something that rarely happened in her teaching history; in potion class, the news that the two took the lead in fighting Slytherin was spread all over the sky; in flying class, when some students couldn't even fly, this The figures of the two have merged with the broomsticks in the air.History of Magic, oh, forget it, is anyone taking this class?Oh, no, yes, I heard that Lynn Bruce of Slytherin has always listened very carefully to the History of Magic class, and even lectured and discussed with the ghost Binns after class. Sirius "admired" her very much.

Everyone said that this year's Gryffindor had two geniuses.Originally, Sirius was assigned to Gryffindor, and many Slytherin purebloods began to look down on him, but since Sirius showed extraordinary talent and was inseparable from James, who is equally talented as him, everyone began to look down on him again. Don't dare to underestimate him.

Contrary to the infinite prosperity of the young master of the Black family, Lucius, the young master of the Malfoy family, has been very depressed recently.

Because it's been whispered lately that Edith Malfoy is a Squib.

Three months ago, he took his sister to Ollivander's store to buy a wand for the first time, but Edith failed to pick her wand of destiny.At that time, he was still thinking that his sister was really different, and the wand she wanted was not something Ollivander could satisfy.However, on the day of sorting, my sister was actually sorted into Ravenclaw, and told him that night, the Sorting Hat said that it could not feel the slightest wave of magic power on Edith! (1)

He comforted his younger sister, saying that it must be because of the previous incident of jumping off the cliff that made her current magic fluctuations a little abnormal, and he would inform his parents about this as soon as possible and discuss countermeasures.

But from the beginning of school to the present, he has asked for leave to take his sister home to "see a doctor" three times, but her condition has not improved.In the first week of school, all subjects were basically theoretical courses, which was fine, but in the second week, Edith's situation began to be difficult to hide.Especially Charms!Although the current first-grade spell class only teaches you the basic wand gestures, and has not really started to cast a complete spell, but even so, when people wave the wand, there will be various lights flashing on the tip of the wand, but my sister took it. The "Unicorn Horn" (2) on the back, like a normal Muggle stick, doesn't give any response!

What is "unicorn horn" you ask?Oh, that's Edith's "special wand".At that time, Edith failed to pick up the wand of destiny in Ollivander's store, but she had some kind of telepathic connection with a unicorn-like cone that was hidden in a corner.At Edith's request, Lucius bought this strange cone for her, and it later became Edith's temporary wand.

Thinking of this cone, Lucius was even more annoyed, don't think he didn't know, those people didn't dare to do it in front of him, but they called that thing a "Muggle thing" in private!How unreasonable that many Slytherin purebloods are secretly watching the jokes of the Malfoy family!However, Lucius couldn't do anything about it.

Lucius didn't know that Edith was no longer the original Edith.

The current Edith is actually a time traveler.In her previous life, her parents who died young left her a huge amount of property, but it was usurped by her uncle and aunt. So she appeared to be glamorous in front of outsiders, but actually lived a life that was inferior to that of a servant. Ya committed suicide.

Then it traveled to the world of Harry Potter's parent generation, Miss Malfoy who also jumped off the cliff because of a failed marriage proposal.

She could see the real Miss Malfoy in the mirror, and the real Miss Malfoy gave her orders: Seduce Sirius Black to marry herself!

Edith was very speechless about this order. She used to look at HP, and in her eyes Sirius Black was a brainless stupid dog with no sense of family responsibility, but she also felt that this body belonged to the real Miss Malfoy anyway, and she I don't have any purpose to live, so I agreed to fulfill the last wish of the original owner.

But the sky is against her will, she has no magic power, and she can't even choose a magic wand.The Sorting Hat also saw that she had no magical powers, and reluctantly sorted her to Ravenclaw.What made her even more disappointed was that on the Hogwarts Express, she had been detained in the box by Lucius and had not been able to go out to find Severus Snape, her favorite character in "Harry Potter" , the man in hell because of Lily Evans (3).

******************

The first half month of school for Severus that Edith was thinking about was not very easy.This is really "thanks" to his roommate, the young master of the Selwyn family: Andrew Selwyn.

Selwyn, too, considered himself unlucky to have Snape as a roommate.Snape's surname is unknown, his face is gloomy, and he doesn't pay attention to personal hygiene (look at his greasy hair and the dirty clothes he pulled out of his suitcase). panties), this man is surprisingly arrogant!

It starts with the first night of school.That night, when Selwyn was packing his luggage, he wanted to show off his Levitation Charm, but he missed it properly, causing the water glass to fall to the ground with a "bang" and shattered.Snape couldn't help but sneered, and then, who had been packing his luggage in the Muggle way before, he drew out his wand and began to use the Levitating Charm.From Selwyn's point of view, this is naked/naked/naked provocation.Snape didn't think of using the Levitating Charm to pack his luggage at all, and he started using it when he saw that he had missed it. Wasn't he deliberately angry with himself?He was the heir of the Selwyn family, and Snape, who had never heard of this surname, dared to mock him!

"Are you a pureblood? I've never heard of the Snape family." Selwyn decided to fight back.

Snape said with an unnatural expression, "My mother is from the Prince family."

"Prince? I seem to have a little impression, but he is not very famous, at least he does not belong to the 28 pure-blood family. Let me tell you, don't think that you can gain a foothold in school by knowing a few spells. We can learn these spells sooner or later. Slytherin, blood is the most important thing. Let me tell you, I am the heir of the Selwyn family. The Selwyn family is by no means comparable to a small family like Prince who can’t stand on the stage. So I advise you not to Put on a haughty look in front of me, what do you have to be proud of?"

Severus' face was ugly, like spoiled milk, he took several deep breaths, and finally resisted the urge to refute.What Selwyn said is right, he doesn't have the support of a big family behind him, so it's better not to fight with the heirs of the big family casually.Selwin and that Sirius Black are different, they belong to Slytherin after all.So he stopped talking and turned back to pack his luggage.

Seeing that Snape died down, Selwyn curled his lips in disdain, and stopped arguing with him.

However, most of Slytherin's students come from ancient pure-blood families, and they hold each other together, and "outsiders" are easily excluded.Generally speaking, these "outsiders" will find a backer for themselves, and the most common backer is their respective roommates.Severus had offended his roommate on the first night of school, and Selwyn wasn't exactly easygoing.After that, when he chatted with everyone, he often hinted how annoying Snape was, intentionally or unintentionally, which made Snape's situation in Slytherin even more difficult for Snape, who had no friends because he was not sociable.

That day, Lucius was walking into the auditorium with his roommate, Faith Crabbe, when he saw his precious sister chasing Snape, calling back, "Hey, Severus, don't go so fast. Wait for me!" And that Snape just walked forward, bumping right into Lucius who was on the way.

Lucius immediately frowned severely, not because he was bumped by Snape, but because he saw his sister chasing after Snape.Miss Malfoy, how could she run after men other than him!

"What's going on, Edith? Need something for Snape?" he said at once.

"Ah... I... because of... that... that I... I was... trying to get Severus to teach me about potions..." Edith stammered and finally choked out Such a sentence (4).

This lie is so bad!Lucius thought.Really want to learn potions, she can find her own brother, not this little-known first grader.Besides, Ravenclaw and Slytherin were not in potions class together, how did Edith know that Snape's potions were good?Lucius himself went to Professor Slughorn to report on the situation of Slytherin two days ago, and only heard the dean accidentally mention that Snape's potions were good.

Lucius looked at Snape thoughtfully, as if assessing the value of an item, and after a long while, he asked, "Then why are you running?"

Lucius felt that it was normal for him to ask this question, but for some reason, Snape took a few steps back in awe.It didn't matter that this retreat happened to bump into Edith who was praying with her head bowed and fingers clasped together. As a result, both of them fell down with a bang.Snape was in front, with Edith at the bottom, and Edith's head was firmly buckled on the bench behind her, bleeding profusely immediately!

Before Severus realized what was going on, Lucius pushed him away.Lucius rushed to his baby sister anxiously, seeing her pained expression, his heart ached.He pulled out his snake-headed wand, and hastily cast a spell to stop the bleeding. Then he picked up his sister and walked quickly to the school hospital. Before leaving, he gave the instigator a vicious eye knife.

**************

"Madame Pomfrey, how is Edith?" Lucius asked anxiously in the school hospital.

"It doesn't look like a major problem at the moment. Of course, this is due to you stopping her bleeding in time. However, hitting her head can be a big or small thing. To be on the safe side, I suggest that she stay in the hospital for at least three days for observation."

"Okay, I will ask the professors for leave for her." Lucius breathed a sigh of relief.

Ten minutes later, Edith woke up. She looked at Lucius timidly, not knowing what to say.It is true that Lucius feels sorry for his sister, but seeing Edith's submissive appearance, and thinking about the cause of the accident, he feels that his sister is not up to date.Where did that tough younger sister go?

"Tell me, what's going on with you and that Snape?" He said in a bad tone.

"I...I'm not lying, I really want him to teach me potions." Edith replied softly.

"And then? He refused, and you ran after him? Edith, are you clear about your identity? Are you clear that everything you say and do at school represents the most honorable Malfoy family?"

"No...he didn't refuse...he just...just felt that he couldn't climb up to me..." Edith stammered.

"Then he still has self-knowledge!" Lucius snorted coldly.

"But brother, I really have a crush on him. Although he is only a mixed race, he is really strong, works hard, does well in all aspects of his studies, and is very talented in potions."

Lucius sucked in a breath of cold air, mixed with shock and anger: "Is he a half-breed? You have a crush on him? You actually like a half-breed?!"

Edith didn't notice at all that she had completely exposed Snape's half-blood identity to Lucius, but hurriedly clarified: "No, no, no, I... I just want to make friends with him , the kind of pure friendship, not what you think brother." Come on, she still has to complete the task of seducing Sirius Black to marry her, how can she have an affair with Snape?She's not Lily Evans' kind of indifferent person!

Lucius was silent, and she continued her efforts: "Besides, Slytherin values ​​blood more than power. From this perspective, there is nothing wrong with me making friends with him, right?"

Looking at his sister's expectant expression, Lucius fell into deep thought.To be honest, he didn't pay much attention to this Snape before.Although he received a friendly welcome at the start-of-term dinner, it was only a matter of courtesy.Later, he came to know that Snape had offended his roommate Selwyn, and felt that the boy was very unruly.So, even when Professor Slughorn told him that the boy was very talented, he didn't really take it to heart.But now, his sister's enthusiasm for him made him pay attention.After all, except for the bastard Sirius Black, my sister has never paid so much attention to other boys.He didn't think Edith had a crush on Snape for no reason, Snape must have done something...

"I will examine him for you. If he is really as good as you said, I will grant your wish and let him teach you potions." Finally he said.

When Edith heard this, she beamed with joy.

Alice was a little worried, whether the fact that she couldn't use magic would be exposed by this strange hat...

"Oh beautiful girl, I'm not some weird hat."

Alice was taken aback.The Hat's sudden speech startled him.

"Ah... this... that..." She didn't know how to hide the worry that flashed in her mind just now.

"I know what you're thinking~" The hat dragged on, and the voice seemed to enter Alice's head directly. "Well, since you have received the Hogwarts admission letter, it is impossible for you to be a squib. But I really can't feel the slightest fluctuation of magic power in you. You must know that even if you have the qualifications for admission, Can't read here without magic. Unless you..."

"Mr. Hat, please don't expose me...I...I..." Alice wanted to say that I had some difficulties, but she crossed over and asked a hat, can it understand..."I can, go to Slater Lin? You know, I'm a Malfoy, my whole family graduated from there, my brother is there now." Alice thought of Harry.What Potter had done, he mustered up the courage and decided to discuss it with Mr. Hat.

"This... is difficult. Although you are a Malfoy, I don't see the magic talent and strong desire to prove yourself that Slytherin should have in your little head. But I can see that you And brave ones, maybe Gryffindors..."

"Don't! Don't go to Gryffindor!" Thinking of how her family who loved her deeply would treat her if she entered Gryffindor, and now they are all important to her, she doesn't want to go to the paradise of bloody lions... …she was no longer a lonely little girl, she was a Malfoy, heir to the oldest and noblest bloodline.The consequences of going to Gryffindor made the hairs on the back of her neck stand up...

"Oh... don't get excited, don't get excited." The hat chuckled, and comforted: "After listening to my hat who has witnessed the history of Hogwarts~ maybe Gryffindor... needs a courageous person, But he/she also needs to have the offensive magic power needed for fighting." The hat paused: "It's a pity for the little girl of the Malfoy family, for you without magic power, Gryffindor may be better than Slytherin Even sadder."

Alice breathed a sigh of relief, as long as it wasn't Gryffindor... Although she couldn't get into Slytherin, as long as she worked hard...

"Oh no, miss, magic power is not obtained through hard work, it is born, and it is a gift from Merlin to every child, so I can't send you to Hufflepuff, the children there work hard, not It’s wrong to say that you work hard, but I see that your little brain is so clever, if you are sent to Hufflepuff, it will be unfair to those hard-working children, isn’t it.”

"Then only..." Alice muttered...

"Yes, that's right, it's there. Although you don't have magic power, you have enough wisdom. Only there can you learn magic that can achieve something without magic power. Of course it's a pity, if you have enough magic power, I Of course I can send you to Slytherin. It's just that you are more suitable for another place. Yes, that's right - Ravenclaw!"
