Harry Potter’s Book of Sin

Chapter 493 Spider Alley

The genius remembers the address of this site in one second: (Apex Chinese), the fastest update! No ads! Cold! Very cold!

Maca is now lying on the snow and pretending to be dead. The weather is so cold that it really made him experience the feeling of being so cold that the joints of his whole body began to stiffen.

Besides, he had to be distracted. After he used Transfiguration to conjure a fake soul that looked like Snape, he had to do his best to stabilize his soul, otherwise he would be shaken out of his body by the power of the floor-to-ceiling round mirror.

To be honest, almost all the difficulties of this plan from the beginning to the end are concentrated here. Although he had made some preparations for this at Hermione's house before, who knows if there will be any incidents?

Even if the deception has been going well so far - just now, he pretended to be Snape and taunted Harry severely, bringing Snape's nasty side to life, and finally Hermione With the cooperation, he turned around and left with a sullen face unwillingly.

But it was so smooth that made him more cautious.

Fortunately, this time, the mysterious time rules did not cause him any other surprises. When he finally got to the moment when the ticking in his ears ended, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Immediately afterwards, he couldn't wait to get up, and quickly withdrew from the area of ​​influence of the floor-standing round mirror. In order to ensure that the whole scene was foolproof, he even took a look back.

Very good, already gone. Maka looked at a certain place in the distance and whispered to herself.

Last time, he decided to use the time-turner again immediately in order not to delay time, and this time, of course, he still had the same idea.

Although it is the same backtracking five hours each time, there will always be some delays. He doesn't yet know how many times he'll be backtracking, so he has to make the next trip as fast as possible. Repeat this until he completely solves the incident this time.

This is the third time he has used the time-turner. To be honest, he deliberately feels it every time, trying to catch some clues about the time rule runes in the process of going back in time.

But it's a pity that, let alone rule runes, he couldn't even discover more characteristics of the time rule.

But at least, he has a good direction on how to break the deadlock.

Not long after, when he escaped from the state of time regression, he used the Portkey to leave here immediately. Last time he collected his thoughts before going to Hermione's house, so now, he still had a chance to get there first.

...

About half an hour later, Spider's End Alley.

This is a dilapidated small town on the outskirts of Cokeworth. It is lonely against a small river with gurgling sewage. The town is full of dilapidated old houses. On the north side of the town, there is a whole piece of abandoned factories, and the sparse street lights flicker on and off, extending all the way to the depths of those factories.

In the dark before dawn, this spooky town looks like a ghost town straight out of a Muggle horror story.

At this moment, a thin figure suddenly appeared in an empty alley. He was wearing a black robe, which fluttered silently as he walked quickly, but he was inconspicuous in this dark alley.

This man seems to have something important to do, and he walks briskly at every step. But even at this time, his gloomy eyes still scanned everything in front of him in this alley, showing his disgust for this place.

What was it that made him hate this place so much? So much so that when they set foot on this land, they would show such an expression of extreme impatience?

He walked very fast and took long steps. He just turned a corner and came to a house door within a few steps. This old house is similar to the other buildings around it, and it looks so dilapidated, but at least, it is one of the few houses here that is still lit.

Squeak— Bang!

With a piercing sound of the door opening,

The man walked in without hesitation, and closed the door behind him.

Severus, you're back.

Ok.

Not long after he entered, there were two slight voices of conversation coming from inside the door. The man's voice was still cold, with a hint of irritability; while the woman's voice was still timid, but contained a ray of joy that was rarely seen.

Didn't I say it? You don't have to wait for me to come back today, why are you still sitting here?

Oh, sorry, but—

No but!

Okay, okay...I'm going to sleep right now...There's food left for you on the table...

I see.

……Oh.

Afterwards, the simple conversation between the two ended. Following a series of inaudible footsteps, it seemed that the woman went upstairs.

But none of them noticed that there was an uninvited guest standing by the window outside the house, and they took the conversation inside into their ears verbatim.

The one standing outside was Maca who followed Snape. He knew that the woman who talked to Snape for a few words was undoubtedly Tia.

Just before that, he had arrived at Granger's house before his last self, and had sneakily left a mark on Snape. And this time, he won't be as hasty as last time.

He took out his staff and cast an anti-apparition spell on the old house before he opened the door and strode in.

This town is a town where Muggles live, and the furnishings in the house are more Muggle-style. Compared with the dark and dirty brick wall outside, the living room Maca saw was obviously much better.

The simple dining table covered with a plain tablecloth, the sparkling brick fireplace, and the ubiquitous bookshelves are easily reminiscent of Snape himself. He is a master of Potions and an outstanding wizard, and what makes him accomplish all of this is not only his own talent, but also his single-mindedness and persistence.

Even the living room, like himself, does not have too many miscellaneous furniture. Just as he had been in love with Lily all his life, he also had the same undivided attention on the endless knowledge of magic.

Maca was bathed in the orange fire light from the fireplace, and Snape, who was slightly stunned, looked at each other, both of them had different sighs in their hearts.

...You still came after me. Snape put down the fork in his hand, wiped his mouth with a napkin, and threw it aside casually.

To be honest, I don't really want to come here, Maca looked at him and said, Because when I found myself in Spider's End Alley, I knew that you definitely don't welcome anyone.

Who knows? Snape shook his head lightly, Perhaps you are right, this place...even I don't want to come back...

This was Snape's old home, and even though he probably didn't want to admit it, it was the only place he could call home.

In this small town, in this small house, he experienced the most disgusting childhood.

His life was neglected by his Muggle father and pure-blood mother who fought constantly, so that he lived a slovenly life from an early age.

It is said that when he was young, he never had a decent piece of clothing on him. He always had a very ill-fitting old suit, plus a crumpled shirt and dirty jeans. And his hair has been greasy since he was a child, and it looks like it hasn't been washed for a long time.

Snape's childhood was a childhood lacking parental care.

However, it was also in this small town that he met Lily Evans for the first time. It was the girl who made him fall in love at first sight and for the rest of his life, lighting up his gray life that was very similar to this dilapidated town.

For Snape, this dilapidated hometown undoubtedly contained all kinds of bitter, hot, sour and sweet tastes, and he would never forget it in his life.

Maca stared at Snape's calm face, savoring the complex emotions hidden behind it. After a while, he looked away and looked around the small living room.

...Tia, are you okay? He inexplicably asked a seemingly irrelevant question.

Hearing this, Snape subconsciously glanced upstairs.

Nothing bad. He replied flatly.

Both of them lowered their voices very softly, apparently not wanting Tia upstairs to hear them. Maca didn't know exactly what Snape was thinking and planning for that woman who was doing things in a daze.

It can be seen from Snape's leaving Tia in this house that he probably accepted this younger sister who appeared out of thin air. However, in front of Lily, Tia, the unexpected younger sister, was not as important as imagined.

Otherwise, Snape wouldn't have held Hermione hostage.

Although Maca now knew that the Snape who devoted himself to the mysterious round mirror was actually himself. But in terms of Snape's holding Hermione hostage, Snape would have done the same without him.

Even now, when Greenwald succeeds, Snape, who knows the plan is successful, will probably still rush there, and then resolutely step into the area that others are afraid to avoid.

What about after that? Will she be okay?

Facing Snape who was perfunctory, Maca insisted on asking.

Between the living Tia and the dead Lily, Snape would still choose the latter. But in this way, Tia, who just got an older brother, will have to face the pain of losing a loved one again.

While expressing admiration for Snape's love, Maca couldn't help but sigh for his unfeeling.

Hmph... Snape chuckled, and then said calmly, This family is not worth her coming back. Being born in this family is a kind of pain. After today, she will forget all of this—she doesn't I will remember the parents who abandoned her, and I will never remember me, the brother who abandoned her.
