"Lily, don't forget to carve me a pumpkin lantern." Dumbledore, who was wearing a velvet robe with more shining stars and moon patterns, said with a smile on the breakfast table.

Liu Quan just passed by his long table: "...Yes, Professor Dumbledore."

It's two months after the start of their fifth grade, it seems that Sirius' 16th birthday has just passed at the beginning of the month, and the other three members of the Predator quartet - no, it's mainly James - are still feverishly doing him good Celebrated a bit.

Carving a jack-o'-lantern is not difficult, it's just a slightly tedious job that requires patience and care.So, a few days later, after dinner, Liu Quan stayed in the common room of Gryffindor, found a corner to sit down, and first finished his homework. From the dormitory, she dragged out a big pumpkin that Dolly, the house elf in the kitchen, found for her, and began to draw faces on the skin of the pumpkin.

It is simpler to draw the line first and then carve according to the line.She didn't do it for long, however, when she was interrupted by the Predator Four—or rather, mainly James.

The four of them sneaked into the Gryffindor common room one by one from the outside-because it was already past 10:30, which is bedtime for little wizards who obey the rules-but the first A Sirius creeping into the common room was almost immediately terrified.

"Li, Lily?!" He called out in surprise and stopped.

Just because he stopped so suddenly without warning, Peter, who was right behind him, almost bumped into his back.Then the third one, Lupine who got in, was full of exhaustion, and he didn't forget to turn around to block it. As soon as he heard the name "Lily", he rushed into the common room, and almost collided with the people in front of him again. james.

"Lily! What are you doing here?" James hurried out from behind Lupin with excitement and panic—it was a strange look on his face, and rushed to Willow Springs immediately. Sitting in front of the sofa.

Liu Quan: "...As you can see, I'm carving a jack-o-lantern. It's Professor Dumbledore's request."

James: "Oh! This is really... really..." He paused, as if he hadn't thought of any kind words to praise her mission for a while.

Sirius lazily continued: "...that's awesome, Lily." He smiled with the corners of his lips crooked, like a bad boy who doesn't care about anything, but the word "amazing" Perfunctory with a touch of consolation - that tone really makes people understand why a lot of Hogwarts girls have a crush on him for a moment.

Liu Quan: "...Thank you for your encouragement, Sirius."

She put down the carving knife and stood up.

"You came back early tonight," she said with a bit of a joke, wondering if the other three, except Lupine's foursome, had already started practicing the incredible Animagus at this time. Skill up.

"It didn't go well today." Sirius said with a smile still in a casual tone.

Lupine's eyes seemed to widen for a moment.Peter flinched.James, who usually seemed careless to Liu Quan, changed his expression, and immediately said with a laugh: "...that's right! Filch seems to be particularly alert today, he must have drank Felix Felicia, and he is so guarded. Next to the entrance to a secret passage we've just discovered...today it doesn't look like we'll be able to drill through that passage to see where it leads, so another day folks—"

Liu Quan thought silently: ... Is the entrance to that secret path under the Whomping Willow? It leads to the Shrieking Shack... Forget it.This was poor Lupine's eternal pain, and it was no good telling the secret, if I couldn't help him, at least I could keep my mouth shut for now.

"Be careful," she smiled, bending over to pick up the half-carved pumpkin. "If you can not be caught by him until graduation, that would be a great achievement." She said jokingly, planning to go back to the dormitory.

"...Lily!" James called again after her.

Liu Quan:? ?

She looked back at him a little strangely, only to find that James had an unusually hesitant expression, and paused before saying: "...that snot--"

Liu Quan's face sank suddenly.James immediately changed his words: "...Snape."

Liu Quan sighed. "Tell me, how did Snape mess with you again?"

James blurted out: "He...he's been following us sneakily lately! That gloomy guy who hides his head and tail doesn't know what bad things he's planning! You...we..."

Liu Quan thought to himself, probably your frequent night travels to find a place to practice Animagus also aroused his vigilance—he trained on you [keenly detect the whereabouts of every little monster that travels at night] And arrest him]'s proud stunt has played a great role in your son after more than ten years-but of course this kind of thing can't be said directly, and it can't be obvious, so that everyone is arguing endlessly now, so she He just nodded perfunctorily, and replied: "...If you haven't done anything bad, of course you won't be afraid of his stalking. Whether it's good for him or you, I believe I have basic judgment. "

Sirius sneered.

"He, of course he is holding back his energy and wants to find out what great secret we have, so that he can shake his head and tail in front of you."

Liu Quan: ... No Sirius, you guessed it right... Snape almost hates me as an imposter now. Instead of shaking his head and tail, he wants to drag me to the sky with his tail, okay? Let's change back to his beloved real Lily - no matter how you lead me to the rhythm! !

"He's not really trying to please me that much—if that's what you're really trying to remind me of," she said bluntly, looking directly at James and Sirius.

"In fact, he should have no necessary reason to fight against you every time—I don't think I have that reason. But if he thinks you provoke him, he will definitely fight back, because his self-esteem and pride They have already reached a certain height—" She originally wanted to explain the current situation in concise terms, but seeing Sirius still showing a nonchalant and contemptuous smile, and James frowning , with a look of "God Lily, that gloomy black-robed monster is not a good person, why do you still speak for him!" She quickly gave up this futile attempt and sighed.

"No, the pride of heaven like you two probably can't understand the pain of some people who have nothing but strong self-esteem and pride, so they have to lift their jaws hard."

She snorted the last sentence vaguely and swallowed it down.

[This is also impossible.Forget it... I'd better be careful and look after all of you when the time comes, so as not to cause any major incidents. 】

But that determination was challenged within a few days.

In the special cram school for Potions in the Room of Requirement in the evening, when Snape looked critically at the swelling potion made by Liuquan again, he snorted through his nose and casually put the crystal bottle aside— — and said nothing sarcastic.

Liu Quan: ...Does this mean that my skills are finally qualified? !Omg applause!Sprinkle flowers!Oh yeah--

An excited smile appeared on her face.The next moment Snape turned his gaze to her, his brow furrowed again.

"This is just one of the simplest potions," he said coldly, his voice that gradually faded from the hoarseness of the voice-changing period, and seemed to have begun to develop in a smooth and beautiful direction.

"When you can make the Felicity Elixir perfectly, then it will be considered a performance in line with Lily's talent."

Liu Quan: ...It is true that I know that you are a fan of Lily, but the fifth grade students at Hogwarts made Felicia? !Will you be too prettified in your memory and exaggerate Lily's talent?This obviously does not require any talent or practice, but the blessing of an extraordinary genius...

She sighed. "……I will continue to work hard."

Then she flipped through a few pages of the notebook, found a formula she was interested in, and started working on potion ingredients again.

When she was carefully chopping the daisy root according to Snape's instructions (?) recorded in the notebook, she heard that Snape, who had finished the potion she was making, seemed to hesitate. After a while, he suddenly opened his mouth and said, "...that arrogant Berserker and the others seem to be planning something... strange things."

Liu Quan:? !

She had to put down the silver knife and turned to look at Snape, showing that she was very interested.

"Did you find anything, Sev?"

Snape seemed to shudder, and immediately said, "...don't call me that, you impostor!"

Liu Quan smiled innocently.

"What are you talking about, Sev? I'm Lily. Unless you change your mind and don't want Lily Evans to call you that—" she replied slyly.

Snape: "..."

His language skills were always overwhelmed by his opponents, he seemed very unhappy, he gave her a hard look, and continued: "...Potter, and that guy who thinks he is the most handsome and charming in the school, and his behavior is simply disgusting Black, the prince patient! Plus their two humble followers...they are always mysterious recently, and their night tour is not as simple as wandering around in the castle!"

Liu Quan: ... Well, with your description, I feel like I can no longer look directly at Sirius!

"Aren't they just wandering around, finding secret passages or something?" she asked deliberately.

Snape seemed even angrier when he didn't get her serious and surprised response.He snapped, "...don't you notice that Lupine looks extraordinarily pale and frail for a few days every month?!"

Liu Quan's prevarication skills have probably reached the full level long ago.

"... Lupine? His health doesn't seem to be very good? I heard it's because of his congenital deficiency?"

Snape said angrily: "What a congenital deficiency!... I once saw them sneaking out from the direction of the library in the middle of the night! They must have sneaked into the restricted/book section! They are still students, and they are not hard-working people , Is there anything that could allow them to sneak into the forbidden/book area together?! They must be hiding something important! And if it is connected with them, there must be no good thing!!"

Liu Quan: ...Actually, what you said is correct, but I can't let you expose them casually.Lupine is actually a good boy, and it's not his fault that he became a werewolf. If you expose them, not only will Lupine be kicked out of Hogwarts and have nowhere to go, but your expedition is also very dangerous... …

"...Okay. I promise you, I will pay attention." She responded flatly, "How about leaving this matter to me? I will ask them tentatively. If there is no conclusion, I will Just find the answer yourself - anyway, as a Gryffindor, you'll have more opportunities to observe them than you would in Slytherin, right?"

Snape seemed momentarily taken aback.

"Who the hell are you?!" He suddenly asked sharply.

Liu Quan: ...Isn't it? Professor, why did we come back to this topic again? !

She sighed in frustration, but on the surface she showed an innocent and surprised expression.

"I'm Li--"

"You, definitely not Lily!" Snape shouted with a mighty courage, his pale complexion seemed to turn a faint red with anger.

"Lily can't easily agree to do such a reckless and risky thing!"

Liu Quan: ...However, a few years later, Lily became a heroine who took the risk to join the Aurors and fight against Voldemort and the Death Eaters?The real Lily probably has much more courage than this impostor like me, okay?

She finally couldn't help but sighed.

"Sev, I have more courage than you can imagine." She said meaningfully, "No matter what happens, you will definitely know it in the future."

"Lily Evans, no matter what happens, in short, she will definitely become a shining person in the future."

"You can look forward to it."
