In the headmaster's room at Hogwarts, Dumbledore was holding a glass of lemon sherbet and looking worried at the blank photo frame on the table.

Three fourth-year Slytherin students were petrified in the corridor the day before yesterday afternoon, and James of Gryffindor was soaked in clear water again when class was over at noon yesterday. That half-breed kid named Severus Snape The strength is too prominent among peers.His family background is similar to that of Tom, the only half-breed Slytherin, who also began to be excluded as soon as he entered school, but when those Slytherins realized that Snape's strength far surpassed them, would they respect Tom again? Same……

I heard that the Malfoy family has begun to set their sights on Snape, but they don't know whether those rumors are true.Back then, Tom was also the first to be accepted by the Malfoy family...

Dumbledore recalled what happened at the door of the prize showroom that day. He also knew that it was James who provoked him first, but he really wanted to know how Snape would react, so he didn't ask the reason, so he directly confronted the Slytherins. Snape's points were deducted. At that time, the black-haired and black-eyed boy quietly faced his favoritism, and his calm demeanor almost made him think that standing in front of him was Tom from back then.

Although Tom hadn't appeared in public these years, the Death Eaters kept moving.The establishment of the new commercial street, the personnel changes in the Ministry of Magic, and the Hogwarts school board seats are directly controlled by the Slytherin nobles.Dumbledore wrinkled his old face, thinking distressedly, it was really not easy for him to maintain the Order of the Phoenix under such circumstances.I just don't know when Tom will start to dominate the wizarding world... If darkness really comes...

Black magic will make people lose their moral direction, and will infinitely magnify the dark side of people's hearts, and finally surrender to the desire for power and the ambition of possessing great power.Dumbledore, who also studied black magic in depth, has always believed this.

It's like the blond boy who was shining in the sun many years ago, but finally embarked on such a road of no return...

Gellert...

I still can't let go of the past.Dumbledore sighed heavily, and gently buckled the blank photo frame down on the table.

—————————————————————————————————————————

The Christmas holidays are just around the corner.

After breakfast, the little animals of Hogwarts happily boarded the Hogwarts Express with the suitcases neatly packed by the house elves.Severus sat in the last box and watched the receding scenery outside the window.The tight thin lips and glossy black hair reflected a layer of gleam in the warm winter sun.

Lily sat opposite and looked at Severus who was immersed in his own thoughts, and couldn't help but feel a little dazed.

r>She still remembers that one evening when she was nine years old, she and her sister Penny came to play on the swing in the small open space as usual. When Penny pushed her to swing to the highest point, she sat on a wooden chair not far away to take a bath Severus watching the setting sun appeared in her sight.When she first moved to the remote Spider's End Lane, she was very unhappy, and she had an awkward fight with her mother for a while because of this, but Penny said it was all because she let the people where she lived see things they shouldn't see Things, the whole family moved to this desolate place.

Petunia had always been jealous of her, and she knew it.Obviously her friends like to see the flowers she conjures up, but every time Penny pulls her away angrily, Penny doesn't like her being loved by everyone.But what can she do?Petunia is not good-looking, and her personality is not likable, but she is her sister and her relatives, so she will still play with Petunia.

But when she met Severus, she realized that the magical powers she possessed were because she was a wizard!What a miracle, what a wonderful thing!

And Severus, who was indifferent to everyone, would tell himself so many things that he was special to her.This realization made Lily very happy.She knew she would go to the wizarding world with Severus, he and she were of the same world.

But on the first day on the Hogwarts Express going to school, I encountered unhappy things. First, Petunia lost her temper early in the morning and refused to go to the station with her parents to see her off. Here comes the two nerds.He actually called Severus a gloomy little viper!And said she couldn't go to Slytherin House with Severus because it was full of bad guys.

Turns out it was exactly as they said, Severus went to Slytherin, and Lily herself went to Gryffindor - and sat with those two bastards!

Slytherins are really bad guys, except for Severus.Every time she saw Severus walking alone in Hogwarts, Lily felt that he was so lonely.But not only the Slytherins bullied Severus, even the Potters in Gryffindor always made trouble for Severus. Excluded, if she didn't care more about him, then Severus would be too pitiful.

"Hey, hello Evans." The door of the box was opened roughly, and a head with messy black hair and a pair of glasses came in. Mr. James Potter and his cronies made their grand debut .

"Potter." Lily gave James a disgusted look, "I don't understand why I see you everywhere I go."

"It's fate, isn't it? Fate." James tossed his hair in a handsome gesture, but the result was to make his messy hair worse.

The three of Sirius laughed,

Oh, I don't know who took them from the front of the train to find this place one by one.

Severus, whose thoughts were disturbed, was even more grim. "I assume, Mr. Potter's family never taught you what etiquette is?"

"Tch. Snotluck, of course I don't have the aristocratic etiquette of your little Mr. Malfoy." James got angry when he saw Severus.

Sirius patted James on the shoulder and comforted, "It's okay, James, even if your manners are not as good as Malfoy's, your character is definitely much better than his."

Lupine stepped forward to block the two friends, and said to Severus with an apologetic smile, "I'm sorry, Snape, they just heard some rumors."

"Remus, why do you have to apologize to him? Who doesn't know about his relationship with Malfoy?" Sirius pushed Lupine away.

"What are you talking about?" Lily looked back and forth at the four people squeezed into the box in puzzlement, and then at Severus who had a cold face and didn't speak.

"Evans, haven't you heard? Snotlite is now..."

"Sirius." James stopped Sirius, Lily was a girl, and he didn't want her to hear some words.

"Why stop him? Potter!" Lily was quite dissatisfied with their behavior, her pretty face was full of anger.

"Hmm... those words are not suitable for girls." James' eyes flickered, and he turned his head away, just in time to see Severus frowning, his light-colored thin lips parted slightly, and his black eyes There is also a trace of doubt and confusion.

Sure enough, this little poisonous snake is the best at disguising!Still pretending to be innocent!How could Malfoy declare to the Slytherin vipers that the snot-nosed was under his protection if it wasn't as they said?How did the snotling have so many advanced spells?In the days before the holiday, how could the snot-nosed man always be invisible, and some people even said that he could not be seen coming out of his dormitory!

Why is he acting like this now?Damn it, Slytherins are all bastards who will do anything for profit.

"Mr. Black, I hope you can speak clearly." Severus looked at James's constantly changing expression, and Lupine had a somewhat unbearable expression, staring impatiently at Sirius and said, his voice was a little cold, vaguely With anger that could explode at any time.

Sirius shrugged indifferently, looked at Lily and said, "Although James, you are a gentleman and don't want to let those dirty words enter the lady's ears, but I believe Evans will soon learn from her other friends. Where do you know, after all, this so-called aristocratic little game is not within the scope of keeping secrets."

Being made even more inexplicable by this kind of vague words, the chill around her body became more and more intense.

"Sirius, that's enough!" James didn't know why, but he always felt bored in his heart, but he couldn't find the reason. This feeling of being unable to grasp made him unwilling to stay here anymore, especially not wanting to watch To that nasty snotlite!Forcibly pulling Sirius into the box, Lupine and Petitlou also left.Lily, who didn't get an answer, chased them out angrily, and heard their chattering and croaking noises after a long distance.

Leaving Severus sitting alone in the box, he couldn't figure it out. Could it be that it was because people found out that he wanted to ask Malfoy senior to help sell potions?But all the potions he made were painstaking efforts. Is there anything wrong with trying to improve the financial situation in this way?He is indeed different from ordinary Slytherins. They come from aristocratic families and don’t need to worry about these mundane things. Even if he sells potions to make money is not in line with the taste of their Slytherin nobles, but his taste and face can help him get a gold plus. Long?The dignity he insists on is not in this respect.

It's just that Gryffindors also look down on this kind of behavior?A sense of incompatibility came to Severus' mind for a moment, but the time was too short to be ignored.Severus wasn't one to worry about this for too long, and soon he calmed down.Back home, there are still many things he needs to face.Mom, and the man who should be called father, although Severus was already used to it, he still couldn't help but look forward to it.Looking forward to seeing them smile and welcome him home, half a year after he's been away from home.
