[Comprehensive HP colleagues] That year

After the long conversation that night, Lynn felt that the relationship between himself and Sirius suddenly improved.It's not that they see each other often, in fact they haven't seen each other alone at all since that night.But they started writing, and there was one almost every two or three days, which was more frequent than she and Lily wrote once a week.Sometimes, they only talked about trivial matters in their letters, and sometimes they talked about some profound issues, such as their views on Hitler.Lynn had to admit that although Sirius looked cynical on the surface, he had some thought-worthy ideas in his heart.

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

It was Thursday, and Hogwarts encountered a rare warm sun in winter.The flying lesson in the afternoon almost became James Potter's personal show again.Even though they belonged to different colleges, Lynn still had to admit that James' technique was really good.After class, several Gryffindors approached Potter, wanting to learn from him the latest stunt he just performed in class.

To be honest, Lynn envied those Gryffindors. Although she was not a Quidditch fanatic, James' move was really cool.Of course, based on her current friendship with Sirius, as long as Sirius said something, Potter should not reject her thousands of miles away.It's just that Slytherin and Gryffindor have always been at odds, and she can't always praise Potter in front of so many Slytherin classmates.

But just when Lynn was holding the broom and was about to walk between the brooms, she suddenly heard Carlo's iconic voice: "Hey, Potter, you're so close to him, don't you just want to fall in love with him?" This mudblood who can't even ride a broom?"

Lynn looked back and saw Potter was correcting the posture of Mary on the broom. After hearing this, both of them glared at Carlo, but before one of them could refute, Gryffindor's Gesper De Singleton said aloud: "How dare you? How dare you say that? Mary flies better than half of you. Why do you call her that? Why can't she ride a broom?" The one who really can't even ride a broom is Snape, your Slytherin!"

Immediately, the little fish in the pond, Snape, who was hurt innocently, looked extremely ugly, and he blurted out: "Shut up, why do you compare me with that stinking Mudblood?!"

All the Gryffindors were silent for a moment, and they all looked at Lily in unison.Lily opened her mouth wide, looking at the friend who grew up with him in disbelief.

At that moment, Sirius actually wanted to laugh out loud, and then said to Lily, "This time you are willing to admit defeat."But he finally held back.And just as he was hesitating, Guspard Singleton had already rushed to Snape, regardless of any wand magic, and fought with Snape on the spot.

Snape was "trained" by Sirius before to be good at spell duels, but he couldn't stand up to Singleton's Muggle style of fighting, and soon became bruised and swollen, Mulciber and Avery thought. He stepped forward to help, but was stopped by Selwyn.

Seeing that her friend was at a disadvantage, Lily finally couldn't help but stepped forward to try to persuade her to fight, but Singleton held back for her sake, but he was still resentful: "Evans, I know that you and this Snape The relationship is good, but you just heard what he called Mary. Mary is also your friend, so don't be too partial! Besides, don't forget, the word 'mudblood' can scold you too. !"

Lily's face turned red and white at Singleton's words. She looked at Snape, who was sitting on the ground and couldn't stand up because of the beating, and then at the crowd of onlookers who had gathered behind her, her hands were trembling. up.

"I know...Snape is wrong to scold Mary, but you don't have to hit him like that." Lily stepped forward to help Snape up, but unexpectedly, Snape turned away from her. help.

After all, Lily couldn't bear it anymore, she didn't say a word, turned around and ran in the direction of Hogwarts Castle, and disappeared from everyone's sight.

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

That night, James and Sirius agreed not to make a bet with Lily.But two nights later, as soon as they returned to the Gryffindor common room from outside, they saw Lily walking towards them and handing a notebook into Sirius' hands.

"I'm willing to bet and admit defeat." She said such a sentence, then quickly turned around and walked towards the girls' dormitory.

James opened the book in Sirius' hand. The history of magic notes on it were beautifully written, but on the first page, there was an obvious tear stain...

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

Three days later, the classrooms on the second floor were empty.

"Lily, I really didn't mean to, you know, I told you about my situation in Slytherin, if I didn't do that, they would look down on me even more! Today is your birthday, can we not Did you mention these unpleasant things?"

"Sev, I know you have your difficulties, but I also have mine. Mary is my friend. If you scold her like this in front of me, how can you let me forgive you so easily? How can you let me face Mary?"

"Well, it's a big deal and I won't say that word anymore," Snape said impatiently.

Lily looked at him, unable to stop the sadness in her heart.Why, less than a year after entering Hogwarts, she already felt that the heart that was close to Severus was getting farther and farther away?Was it her fault, or Sev's?

After all, she forgave him, and that night, under Severus' gaze, she silently made her 12th birthday wish: May Severus Snape never say that word in front of her again ...

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

April is fragrant, and the grass grows and the warbler flies.Just when many students are still missing the Christmas holiday, the Easter holiday has come.But this holiday season isn't quite as good as Christmas.The teachers seemed to think that it was time for the students to prepare for the end-of-term review, so the homework suddenly increased, and the students complained endlessly.

But to Xue Kelin, this is nothing at all.Every time the magic item research group meets, Lynn or Sister Alma will complain that there are too many homework now, but Xia Kelin always easily says that she has finished all the homework and is studying more advanced things , This made Lin En feel envious and jealous.

But Lynn is still very grateful to Xia Kelin.Originally, because of the quarrel between Xia Kelin and Sirius that day, Lynn had some prejudices against Xia Kelin. She applied to join the group purely for the purpose of making a bloodline tracker in the future.But after getting along with her for the past few months, she felt that Xia Kelin was not as stubborn as she thought. At least Xia Kelin did not show disdain for a commoner from a non-pure blood family like herself, or at least, did not show it in person.After several months of running-in, she has become an official member of the research team.

In fact, for sisters Xia Kelin and Alma, although Lynn's hands-on ability is not strong and he is not innovative, he is very knowledgeable.Every time they discuss the properties of a substance, she can always immediately quote the classics and summarize the most reliable conjectures, and the facts often verify her conclusions.Therefore, Lynn acted as a similar data search engine in the team, and this just complemented the characteristics of Xia Kelin herself and her twin sisters.Now, they have fully accepted her, and they have changed from calling her Bruce to Lynn.

However, Lynn still feels more comfortable with Lily from Gryffindor than Shaklin or Marceline from her own college.

Before Christmas, Lynn and Lily only exchanged letters, and the discussion about potions was the most mentioned.But after returning from Christmas vacation and meeting in the empty classroom on the second floor, Lily invited Lynn to study potions with her and Snape.Originally, Lynn was still busy passing Shaklin's test, and she wasn't very interested in potions, but she couldn't hold back Lily's repeated invitations, so she decided to join in the fun.Unexpectedly, the first time he went to join in the fun, Snape criticized her potion level, saying that she was not even as good as Malfoy's squib.

Lynn had no complaints about Miss Malfoy herself, but she was very sensitive to the word Squib. This word may not be considered a big deal in modern times, but in the era of her previous life, it was quite an insulting word.She, Lynn Bruce, was not as good as Lily and Snape, two top potion students, but Snape didn't have to hurt people so much, she didn't offend him!

Because of Snape's embarrassment to Lily in public that time, Lynn didn't have a good impression of him at all, and now he was ridiculed by him like this, and he was even more angry.

"Yes, yes, only your potion is powerful. Then let me ask you, do you know what Gobalot's third law is? Why is the shelf life of the vitality tonic only three days, and why is the eternal potion never used up?"

Snape was stunned, he seemed to have seen these questions somewhere, but now he couldn't remember any of them.

"The first question, Gobalot's third law is that the antidote for a mixed poison/drug is greater than the sum of the antidote for each individual ingredient, and the second question, the tincture of Potentilla in a Vitality Tonic ingredient lasts longer It will react with other ingredients, the third question, the most important ingredient in the eternal potion is the tears of the Jue-sound bird. Screaming, calling out all the sounds it has heard in its life. So as long as this sound exists, the eternal potion will never run out or expire."

Lily and Snape stared blankly at Lynn, terrified.Lynn wiped the sweat in her heart. Fortunately, she listened more carefully to the advanced potions lectures in her previous life, otherwise she really couldn't restrain Snape, a potion genius.

"Lin En, I didn't expect you to be so powerful. I've never heard of these things." Lily was the first to break the silence, looking at Lin En with bright eyes.

"Lily, I'm not that good. These things can be found in any advanced potions book. I just happened to read it and write it down. I just said this to let Snape know that everyone has their own What I'm good at and what I'm not good at, maybe I'm really inferior to you in making potions, but that doesn't mean I can't rely on theoretical knowledge to help you."

In this way, Lynn joined Lily and Snape's potion research team, but unlike Lily and Snape who met almost every night, Lynn would only join them in the fun on weekends, usually she had her own She had to study her homework and the bloodline tracker, so she didn't have so much time to spend on potions that she wasn't interested in.But getting along with Lily once a week still makes her feel very relaxed.Compared with the arrogance of Marceline and Shaklin, Lily is more cheerful and easy-going than the girl next door, which makes Lynn feel no pressure.Of course, the premise is that you have to ignore Snape's gloomy face.

Today is another day when Lynn comes to join in the fun.The topic of their discussion today is the Potion of Forgetfulness.

"Speaking of memory, Sev, do you remember that you told me that when Lucius Malfoy talked to you, your memory was uncontrollably retrieved?" Lily said suddenly.

"Memories were pulled out uncontrollably? He wouldn't have cast your mind on you, would he?" Lynn said.

"Insomnia? What's that?" Lily and Snape asked in unison.

"Uh...that's a very old and very remote magic that allows people to enter other people's brains and read their memories." Lynn said.

"How can there be such magic in the world?" Snape was a little disbelieving.

"I'm not sure. I saw it in an ancient book by chance. It seems that there is a magic that is specially used to prevent others from entering your own brain, but I can't remember the name. The book is right These two kinds of magic are also mentioned in passing, so I thought that kind of magic had been lost."

"Then we need to check this spell carefully later, especially for you, Sif. If Malfoy uses this spell on you again, you should have something to deal with. It's terrible to be able to be flipped through memories at will! Then Wouldn't there be no privacy at all?"

"That's right." Snape echoed Lily's words.

In this way, I usually discuss studies with Marceline, participate in Shakelin's magic device research group and Lily Snape's potion research on weekends, discuss miscellaneous things with Sirius in letters, and discuss the book " Lineage Tracker, Lynn feels she's living her life to the fullest.Because of this, when the final exam was coming, she felt that the time passed so fast that it was unbelievable.

"I can never remember this! Why does dragon's blood have twelve uses instead of ten or eight?" Marceline said irritatedly.

As the exam was approaching, Lynn and Marceline began to review by asking each other questions, but Marceline couldn't tell all the twelve uses of dragon blood, either she missed one or the other .As for Lynn, theory is her strong point, and these things that need to be memorized are not difficult for her. She is still worried about the practical lessons of spells and transfiguration.

"Recite it a few times, and I can always remember it. What I am most worried about now is my practice of transfiguration," Lynn said to Marceline. "The matchbox I changed last time still had mouse whiskers on it. If the exam It would be miserable for me to make such a low-level mistake sometimes."

Anyway, the final exam came.As Lynn had expected, she didn't have the slightest problem with her theory exams, but her practical exams were just passable.The worst was the Charms exam.Professor Flitwick told them to go into the room one by one to see if they could soften a desk and put a pineapple on it to play on the trampoline.Lin En's softening spell was very successful, but when the pineapple fell, the accuracy was really bad, and it fell off the desk with a "baa".Under the distressed eyes of Professor Flitwick looking at the smashed pineapple on the ground, Lynn fled in despair.

The exam lasted for a whole week, and when Lynn handed in her most confident history of magic paper, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.She asked Marceline to go to the lake together and relax.

A week later, the results of the final exam finally came down.In the first grade, Sirius firmly took the first place, followed by Shaklin and Lily tied for second, followed by Ravenclaw's Anthony Goldstein, Hufflepuff's Croy Jones, Lynn came in ninth.

Lin En wasn't too surprised by his own result, but seeing that his three good friends were ranked among the top three in the grade, he couldn't help but feel that he had to work harder.

After the results of the final exam came back, the students completely relaxed and just waited to go home for the holiday.During this time, however, some things happened.For example, Lynn heard that Sirius went to the Forbidden Forest with Edith Malfoy for some reason on the day when the results of the final exam were announced, but came back injured all over.Sirius' explanation for this was vague, and Lynn didn't pursue it.

In any case, this can be counted as a year of many disasters, and finally passed.

Lynn never expected, and no one expected, compared to the future, in fact, the life of the first grade can be regarded as peaceful.Just as the first-grade children were celebrating the coming of summer vacation, the outside world was becoming more and more uneasy under the agitation of a wizard named Voldemort.
