[Comprehensive HP colleagues] That year

The author has something to say: Passerby A is a character who has shown her face in the original work. I wonder if anyone can guess who she is.

At noon, at the Hufflepuff table.

A: "Look, Black is bullying Snape again. It's been a month and it hasn't stopped."

B: "What is bullying? It's called one-on-one. Who can blame Snape for being inferior to others?"

A: "You can't say that. Blake came from a family of wizards, and he must have received a lot of special training since he was a child. Of course, Snape can't beat him."

C: "Come on, Snape is not an easy-going lamp. You didn't see the magic he performed a few days ago. At that time, a senior student told me that it was black magic!"

A: "How is it possible? Snape is a first-year student, how could he know the Dark Arts?"

C: "Don't believe it, our dean was there at the time, and we could tell something was wrong at a glance. Look at the time when Black was caught causing trouble for Snape, and Black was not the only one who was deducted points. But that time, The dean deducted points for both of them, doesn't that explain the problem?"

A: "According to what you're saying, it's not that Snape really can't defeat Black, but that he doesn't dare to use those black magics lightly?"

C: "Probably so. But let me tell you, even if Snape used black magic to defeat Black, so what? Black's appearance, eloquence, and popularity, which one can be drawn out will not beat Snape ten times. If Black loses, It is estimated that more girls will find trouble with Snape."

B: "What are you talking about? Blake is not the kind of person who relies on women! It's not like Snape, who relies on Evans every time."

A: "If you speak for Black like this, don't you fall in love with him?"

B: "Go, go, sister, I can't appreciate elementary school students from an artistic point of view."

C: "All right, all right, no one said no. But speaking of it, don't you think that Evans is weird? You see, Snape was bullied...well, well, not bullying, but singled out...he When he was singled out, no one in Slytherin stood up to help him, but Evans, a Gryffindor, always stood by Snape's side. Evans is such a little beauty, but To be like Snape...well, you understand without telling me, what do you think she is up to?"

A: "You don't understand that. This is the power of love!"

B & C: "Why, you know the inside story? Tell me, what's going on?"

A (smugly): "I have a Gryffindor friend, she told me that on the first day of school, Blake made a public bet with Evans in the Gryffindor lounge that Snape would Can't learn the word 'Mudblood.' If Evans loses, he'll have to copy two years of history of magic notes for Black."

C: "What does this have to do with love?"

A: "Why are you so slow, Black, Evans and Snape have no grudges, why do you want to make such a bet? According to my analysis, Black probably fell in love with Evans at first sight, and Evans rejected him , in order to avoid entanglement, he found Snape who was farthest away from the word "handsome" to prove that he would not be fooled by Black's beauty, so Black was furious and vowed to show Snape a good look."

B & C: "This guess is too nonsense...too nonsense..."

It's really ridiculous.Walking by the Hufflepuff table, Lynn thought so after hearing Student A's last analysis.But she never expected that a week later, this ridiculous talk would become a mainstream topic in Hogwarts when everyone talked about the battle between Black and Snape.Lily also wrote a letter to Lynn complaining about the cruelty of the scandal: "Black is just looking for trouble! He is very boring about Severus, but I can be sure that the reason has absolutely nothing to do with me! Lynn, can you Don't believe those rumors."

Lynn was speechless. She actually knew better than Lily why Sirius was targeting Snape. Isn't it because Snape's message that day made him suffer a lot.Although Lynn also felt that Sirius was somewhat angry with Snape, but she was not familiar with Sirius, and she had no position to criticize him.

Lynn wouldn't know that, compared to her "nothing to do with herself" attitude, someone took this scandal to heart and made a serious note of Lily's flirtatiousness; she also wouldn't know, because This scandal, how did that girl named Edith Malfoy start brewing a great plan to "make Sev forget Lily"...

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

Severus looked at Edith Malfoy who was in a daze in front of him, and regretted accepting Lucius Malfoy's test.

More than a month ago, on the third day after he agreed to Lucius' test, Lucius asked him to send a message to Sirius Black.He guessed that this message would make Sirius Black unhappy, so he readily agreed.Sure enough, that night he heard that Black was injured and entered the school hospital.However, after a few days, Blake was discharged from the hospital and began to bite himself like a mad dog.Of course, he, Severus, was not easy to bully, he had long wanted to settle with Black.So during that time, he put the hard work practice spell, hoping to beat Black and avenge him.Only later, Hogwarts suddenly heard rumors about him, Lily, and Black, and the content of the scandal almost made him have the urge to kill.Black stopped for a while because of this scandal, which just gave him a chance to "recuperate and recuperate".When fighting again, he can already reach a tie with Black instead of letting mermaid!And just because he gradually became equal to Black, the Slytherin classmates no longer dared to underestimate him. Mulciber, Avery and others successively expressed their acceptance of him. Of course, the roommate Selwyn was just as annoying as ever.

It was better to get everyone's approval through his own efforts than relying on others, which made Severus feel that Edith Malfoy was a weakling.

"Malfoy!"

no response.

"Malfoy. Hello?"

Still no response.

"Edith Malfoy! Are you looking at your cauldron!"

After being yelled at by Severus, Edith finally woke up like a dream. She hurriedly added ground snake skin to the cauldron, and the cauldron that was about to explode finally calmed down.

Severus really felt that sacrificing the time he spent studying potion improvements with Lily to be with this pretty Squib lady was the greatest torture in the world.

【"Miss Malfoy, do you really want to study hard? Or do you just want to waste other people's time with a name, and then find it interesting? If you are not interested in potions, you can tell your brother, I I have no interest in playing soup with a little girl like you!"]

"Oh, Severus, don't be angry. I was really thinking about something very important just now. I promise I won't do it again next time! I know you are hard-spoken and soft-hearted, and you won't really leave me alone."

That's it, that's it!Severus felt deeply powerless.How many times, he told this Miss Malfoy plainly that if she has no talent or interest in potions, don't force herself, but every time, she can't understand how impatient he is, and he can't speak anymore when he is angry. The choice of words can be interpreted by her as hard-spoken and soft-hearted.

Fuck Merlin's hard mouth and soft heart, I just want to get rid of you, bastard!Severus was deeply depressed.

***********

Maybe it's because she's too busy right now—in addition to homework for various subjects, and studying potions with Severus every other day and helping Severus fight wits with Black, when Lily realized that she was in Huo She couldn't believe it when Gwartz had been there for two full months.The initial unaccustomed to life in the wizarding world is gradually fading, and she and her roommates who are also from the Muggle world gradually feel that the retro life in Hogwarts is actually quite interesting.

Today is Halloween, and the last class is History of Magic, which is attended by Gryffindor and Ravenclaw.Lily was dizzy listening to Professor Binns talking about the goblin Elfric's rebellion, and walked away after listening.In the end, she insisted on listening to the class carefully, but she was defeated by Professor Phantom's consistent chanting voice for thousands of years, so she decided to look at the spiritual spirit of other classes.As for the notes for this lesson, let Lynn borrow them later.Lily knew that her Slytherin pen pal had always had an incredible love for history, and she believed that she would not miss a single point of knowledge taught by Professor Binns.

The bell for the end of get out of class finally rang, and Lily couldn't wait to invite a few roommates to see the halloween costumes together.However, just as she was walking out of the classroom, Edith Malfoy, who had never dealt with her at all, stopped her and said she wanted to talk to her.

Lily felt very surprised. She subconsciously worried that something happened to Severus. After all, Severus was the only place where she and Miss Malfoy met.So, she could only let her roommates go first, and followed Miss Malfoy to a secluded place.

【"I think you may know what I mean by telling you to come out."】Miss Malfoy opened her mouth, but she didn't look at Lily, but looked behind Lily blankly.

Seeing this, Lily couldn't help but look back, but there was nothing behind her except the wall.She turned her head, but before she could answer, Miss Malfoy suddenly said, "I don't know, but I think it has something to do with Severus." When she said this, her eyes became more natural.

Huh?Lily was confused by what seemed like a question and answer.

Then Miss Malfoy said something that surprised her even more: ["I hope you can understand the rules of the game, Edith Malfoy."] It was that blank look again.

What's going on, is this Miss Malfoy talking to herself?

"What game?" His eyes returned to normal.

【"Don't play dumb. Malfoy, you're a pureblood, and a Malfoy at that. Your scheming and ambition are in your blood. So what if you're a Squib? You can still use your pretty You can gain a firm foothold with your little face and the power of your family, won’t you?”] His eyes are abnormal again.

"It's... Lily, you know I'm not..." It's normal again.

【"Shut up, you squib! Of course I know the status of a Muggle-born like me in the eyes of your purebred wizards, but I also warn you, don't use your brains! Miss Malfoy, I hope you use your Platinum-gold aristocratic head, think about the aristocratic etiquette that I have learned that suits your status, and know what it means to come first, first served! What do you mean don’t touch other people’s things!"] It’s not normal again.

……

Lily has never encountered such a weird thing since she was a child. Is Edith Malfoy playing role-playing or sleepwalking?

"Miss Malfoy, what's the matter with you?" Lily yelled loudly, trying to wake up the girl in front of her, but Malfoy was not affected at all.

"Evans, do you mean...you like Severus?!" Normal eyes.

【"Like? Hehe, a joke. A kitten like you in the greenhouse knows more than I do. You don't need me to teach you how to master men. I don't want to hang out with a greasy guy? Well, if he wasn't the only magical person I've ever known, and I could see his talent in magic, I wouldn't bother to stay with such a person. West Forrest, how are you? Severus, you are the best! Severus, I am really happy to meet you~! Bah. I feel sick when I think about it, but you, Miss Platinum, Hanging with that greasy guy all day, I really can't compare to you in this respect."] Abnormal eyes.

Lily felt that she couldn't bear it anymore.She could see and hear it, and whenever Malfoy's eyes blurred, she was pretending to speak.She didn't want to argue with a suspected sleepwalker, but what this Miss Malfoy said was too much!What is "greasy"?What is "disgusting"?She wants to imitate herself, but she can't imitate so disgustingly!

"Miss Malfoy, you want to direct and act on your own, but I'm not interested in being an audience member." Lily said this, knowing that the people in front of her couldn't hear her, and turned to leave.I was still thinking about it, it was really disappointing to encounter such a thing during the big festival.Or is this a Halloween special?She doesn't like this kind of show at all, okay?

But Miss Malfoy held her back.She raised her awl, and slashed across the back of Lily's hand with the tip, and a deep red bloodstain appeared immediately.

"You..." Lily trembled violently in pain, tears almost popping out involuntarily.What kind of grudge does this Miss Malfoy have against her? !

And at this moment, she heard an angry and familiar voice: "Malfoy. What are you doing?!"

Lily looked around, and saw Severus striding towards him with flaming eyes, and then he grabbed Lily behind him, while that Miss Malfoy muttered: "Severus, what's the matter? This is what you see. You listen to my explanation".

Eyes, unusually sober.

===================================

This chapter is full of my infinite resentment towards Jinjiang Hei Liliwen. It is taken from Chapter 17 "Red-haired Girl, True Face" of "Stars, Perseverance".

【】What Lily said in the original text.

This article assumes that Miss Malfoy is "sleepwalking". She dreams of these things involuntarily, and deeply believes that her dreams are real.
