Su Shuang's world is collapsing [Comprehensive]

The iron door made a creaking noise and swung open sideways.Snape stepped into the small, overgrown courtyard, and opened the door of the already useless room without much effort.

Everything in the living room remained the same—except for some overly tenacious weeds and vines that got out from the gaps in the wooden floor and grew upwards, almost submerging half of the room.The sofa and coffee table, which were all out of place because of the fighting that night, were left unattended and covered with dust.However, it was precisely because of the overgrown weeds in this living room and the dust that seemed to be almost a foot thick that Snape realized almost immediately——

Weeds and vines have large lodging marks.There are also traces of dragged dust on the dilapidated floor - along those traces, he can almost outline what happened that day: after using the Portkey left by Dumbledore to bring Nagini to this living room Afterwards, the big snake that was enraged by this sudden incident almost immediately launched an attack on the victim object that had been locked by its owner.

On the thick dust on the ground, there are messy traces of its huge body dragging past, and it can be seen how long that tricky opponent has been dealing with it; in some places, its huge snake body seems to be coiled up and seems to be spinning Several laps, but in other places there were only long trails - it looked as if it had raised its head, briefly locked on to its hapless opponent, and then sprang forward to attack the opponent with all its strength, perhaps aiming at the opponent's last attack. Fragile Throat Area!

Snape didn't need to look in the magic mirror to guess how ugly his face was now.The messy traces dragged on the ground seemed to be like disorganized lines, slowly swimming, forming a painting by itself—a line drawing about the dangerous situation that fake Lily encountered at the last moment of her life.

He has experienced too many arduous battles, so he can easily distinguish that in the dust on the ground, some marks are obviously caused by the human body falling there and rolling sideways; Sit on the ground and step back to wipe what comes out.

And at the end of everything, the evidence with the most decisive value is a small puddle of blood on the corner of the wall—it is not very big, and it is not enough to be fatal based on the amount of bleeding alone, but there is no doubt that the drips from the road along the way The traces of splashed blood extending all the way to the end point, a small pool of blood that had already dried up and started to darken, could only be left by her.Because no one else will come here, and no one else will commit life-threatening crimes here that have become a memorial site; although two people died in this house 16 years ago, they are all cursed , will not leave blood.So there is only one inference of the matter——

There could be no one else who was wounded and bled in the battle with the Dark Lord's pet Orochi.

Since the Dark Lord had been killed by Harry Potter, it proved that before that, one of his Horcruxes, Nagini, had been killed.Because the Dark Lord cannot be killed without destroying all of his Horcruxes.

Now, that big snake has turned into black ashes along with its master, perhaps it has been blown away without a trace by some wind.But where is the woman who killed the Dark Lord's Horcrux Orochi?Even if something happened to her, her body should be left here, just like the tragedy that happened here 16 years ago; however, this place is empty and there is nothing.

Snape slowed down, took a very cautious and careful attitude, and searched the entire floor very meticulously for a week.He searched carefully every corner, every room, even every footprint and trace in the dust; however, he found nothing.

Finally, he followed the messy trails all the way to the staircase.

The stairs were covered with carpets, and he still remembered that Beryl said that this was prepared in advance so that Harry would not fall and get hurt when he was learning to walk. Of course, after 16 years, the carpets that were originally fixed on the stairs Already fuzzy, hemmed, tattered in many places, and hardened from repeated soaking in the rain and drying in the shade afterwards; the stairs were dark and the light bulbs had long since died.Snape had to take out his wand and cast a Luminescent Charm to barely light the small path in front of his feet.

Under the light of the small circular halo, he slowly climbed the stairs.Suddenly, his footsteps stopped without warning; after a moment's pause, he suddenly bent down, and under the reflection of the little halo——from the water-stained carpet, he slowly picked up A long red hair.

He slowly raised the long hair to his eyes, and the tip of the wand was lifted accordingly. With the help of the faint fluorescent light on the tip of the wand, he opened his eyes wide, and it took him a while to recognize —That was indeed Lily's hair.

The moment he came to this conclusion, he suddenly felt short of breath for no reason.

He tightened his five fingers, and tightly held the long red hair, which seemed to be weightless, in the palm of his hand. He looked towards the narrow corridor at the top of the stairs—which now seemed dark and endlessly long—corridor. look away.

He knew where that corridor led.That dreadful room he didn't quite want to return to - the room where Lily, or rather, Beryl - had been killed by the Dark Lord.

The tip of his wand suddenly pointed downward again, and the place illuminated by that little fluorescent light slowly swept away from his feet in a further direction; within a few seconds, that little fluorescent light suddenly He paused, because in the halo, half of the footprints were clearly visible.

It's not easy to leave footprints on carpet—even an old one that's hardened and hardened.But he was really lucky—or rather, very unlucky—that half-print was obviously a female footprint, and at the heel; The heel of one foot was stained with blood, so when it fell heavily, half of the outline of the heel was left on the carpet.

However, he didn't find this footprint until he walked all the way here, which proves that——

The blood on the footprints could not be Nagini's.Only when the owner of the footprint bleeds all the way here, and the blood slides down the calf and flows to the heel, will the half-heel footprint be left here.

Snape felt a brief suffocation.That feeling was almost exactly the same as what he had experienced here 16 years ago; before he had time to think about what this meant, his body had subconsciously taken a big step, and within a few steps he crossed the corridor and came to the place full of screams, The door of the room of crying, grief and anger.

During this short few steps, his brain uncontrollably thought of many things.

He still remembered how she walked into that room quietly and slowly that night 16 years ago.Strangely, in the gap between such great grief and howls erupting in his heart, he was still able to separate a ray of attention subconsciously, and saw those details that he had ignored at the time—her pair of green eyes that belonged to Lily Grief and anger flashed in her eyes, sympathy and pity flashed, and there was also a kind of helpless sadness; she hugged little Harry who was crying in the crib, and hummed a soft tune coaxing him; she glanced at him stealthily, as if hesitating to speak—

At that time, what exactly did she want to say to him?Anything other than "I'm sorry"?

At that time, he didn't want to hear another word from her.Now, he suddenly found that even if he suddenly wanted to hear what she had to say, he had no chance.

It's ridiculous and ironic that the last words he said to her turned out to be - "Cruciate".

Snape felt a sudden tightness in his throat.It was as if someone grabbed his neck ruthlessly and coldly, as if he wanted to crush all the emotions and words that surged in his heart at this moment into his throat.

Of course, he still remembered that she had said many bold and bold words in front of the Dark Lord before that, and her provocative meaning almost broke through the ceiling of Malfoy Manor; now he knew that all of them were just to anger the Dark Lord , clouding his judgment, misleading him to follow the train of thought she designed in anger, thinking that she is the master of the Elder Wand——

He heard his own footsteps, stepped on the wooden floor covered by old carpets and creaked due to disrepair, step by step, and finally came to the door of that room.

He stopped at the door, hesitating for a moment, as if for such a short period of time, he actually became afraid, afraid of what he was about to see in that room; he was afraid that what came into his vision would be the same as 16 years ago. Lily fell to the ground, her face was pale, and her long red hair covered half of her face in a mess; but even then, he could tell at a glance that she was dead, and the vitality had been released from that body. There is no longer such a person in this world.

However, his rationality also clearly knows that staying here is not a good way.Even if he suddenly lost the courage to look into the room, he still had to take this step, walk into the open door, and use his own eyes to prove one thing: that is——Lily Ewan Si's life and death.

He subconsciously took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and quickly opened them again.The door that has been open for 16 years is close in front of you. It is daytime at this moment, and the sun shines in through the open door, casting a small halo on the corridor in front of the door.

Snape flicked his wrist lightly, retracted the glowing spell, tightly held the wand with his right hand, and slowly stepped forward with his right foot with an extremely cautious attitude——

Then, his breath froze for a moment.

As if his own breathing also stopped at that moment, he heard a monosyllable moan mixed with shock, surprise and pain uncontrollably from his throat.He felt his face tense for a moment, and the blood in his whole body seemed to stop flowing.

In front of him, beside the now dilapidated cot where Harry Potter had been, lay a woman.

It was not exactly the same as the scene 16 years ago in memory, she fell there sideways; however, the expression on her face was very calm, and her clothes and hair didn't look too messy.She now lay on the floor of that room after a conceivable battle with the Dark Lord's Horcrux, Orochi, with the afternoon sun streaming in through the battered window sills, making her look It's like falling asleep.

She was lying on her side to the right, with her left hand on her waist and her right hand not far from her cheek. The pale hand was stretched slightly, and there seemed to be a scratched hole in the upward facing palm. A few tiny bloodstains.On the ground beside her, the wand that had been broken into two pieces was discarded there.

There was no fear or sadness on that pale face without a trace of blood. Like a faint smile——

Snape stared blankly at the scene in the room.His whole body seemed to be turned into a stone statue, just like the statue outside the principal's room. His facial features were distorted and suddenly slanted, like a sandcastle washed by a heavy rain, which would soon lose its shape; his straight back was deeply rooted. Collapsed, and before he could come to his senses, tears rushed out of his sunken eye sockets, quickly blurring his vision.

He moved his lips, but couldn't speak.He tried again and again, as if he couldn't believe that what he saw was the final outcome; finally, after several efforts, he finally made a sound, but it was only a few broken syllables, and his voice sounded hoarse It was terrible, as if it would soon be unusable——

"...Lily?!"

The author has something to say:

February 6:

I just said I'm going to make a big deal! 【Kicked away

Don't worry about the girl, she just returned to the Endless Hall.What is left here is Lily's body.

Let me give you some explanations from God's perspective:

The girl didn't leave because she was seriously injured and received a lunch box. The girl left voluntarily because she had achieved the mission goal.

As for why Lily's body is left here, of course it is because it has to be returned to the real Lily hhh

That's why the title of this volume is called "Only Love and Soul Can't Live Up to".
