Chapter 25 The House of Requirement

The whole Hogwarts is going crazy, every year at the end of the term, the students will go crazy once.

You know, Hogwarts grades mean whether you can spend a comfortable vacation.Although grades can't represent everything, you must know that Hogwarts' seven final grades and two grade exams determine the future of a wizard.

Of course, this is not necessarily the case, at least the Weasley twins are doing well.

All the places in the library were occupied, and Lily had to sit at a table with others to study.And Snape, his frown could almost kill a fly.The students next to him were discussing quietly, or flipping through books clattering, making Snape so irritable that he wanted to flip the table.

He originally planned to go back to the dormitory to review the classroom knowledge, but the grade test is not only about theoretical knowledge, but also practical operation.The more extracurricular knowledge you can master, the better grades you can get, and the more likely you will get unexpected opportunities in the exam.For example, internship recommendation.The public books in the library are not allowed to be borrowed, but the books that can be used in the borrowing area are almost borrowed and can only be exchanged.

There are new people joining next to it, and the space on the bench is getting smaller and smaller.Snape's elbow was touched by a classmate next to him, and the quill made a long gash on the paper.

Snape's expression became even more ferocious.

Before Snape could swear, Harry stretched out his leg and kicked him in the shin.

"What are you doing, Mr. Pott?!"

Harry packed his schoolbag quickly, nudging Lily with his elbow, "Okay, let's go."

"Go?" The book in Lily's hand was taken away by Harry, "This is the place we finally found! And the book cannot be taken away!"

"I know." Harry pulled Lily up vigorously, "Let's go, let's go to the lobby to get some food first."

"Hey, Harry, can you give us that book?" The fat boy next to him asked quickly when he saw that Harry was leaving.

"You're welcome." Harry handed Lily's book to him casually.

"Harry!"

Lily stared, and Snape's expression was also unkind.

You know, the library is one of the most sought-after places in Hogwarts now, and many people even take turns to eat in order to occupy the space to study.

Harry blinked at them, "Come with me, you won't regret it."

The three of them came to the hall together, and it was time to serve dinner, but most of the long tables were students from lower grades, and they were still eating dinner carefree and laughing.

Philip Longman just came over to get some food. He looked at the group of lower-grade children with a self-conscious expression on his face, and said to Harry: "If I knew that my potion grades were so bad back then... , I will definitely eat more vegetables."

Harry looked at him amusedly, and said goodbye.

Harry and Lily didn't sit down to eat, but started packing for takeaway.Harry was holding up a large tray with some food on it, but more drinks.There are several large cups placed on the tray, which are extremely heavy.

Lily saw him take the drink and seemed to put down her glass on the tray, but Harry stopped him and even asked her to bring as many glasses as she could.

The two of them were carrying the food and were about to leave, but Snape actually sat down firmly and was eating.

Harry put down the tray and walked awkwardly to the Slytherin table.

A few Slytherins put down their knives and forks and stared at Harry's as if he might lose his mind and pounce on him at any moment.Snape's seat happened to be in the middle of the long table. Harry scratched his hair and walked over quickly.

"Hey, let's go."

Snape froze, he looked at Harry Potter, and then at the Slytherins sitting next to him, "Do you have the head of a troll?"

Harry rolled his eyes at him, reached for a tray, and put food in it with his hand, "Spare yourself, snotty." He said and put another pudding on the plate.

Snape was still sitting, taking only a few mouthfuls of the steak on his plate.Snape glanced at Harry, reached out and pulled the pudding out, and added another steak and chicken drumsticks to it.

"Picky eater," Harry muttered under his breath.

Before leaving, Harry saw an acquaintance. Wilson Crabbe was sitting diagonally across from Snape. There was a pile of food in front of him. When Harry looked at him, he was tearing and biting a chicken leg. He gave Harry a hideous smile.

Harry tried to laugh a little, scratched his hair and nodded at him.

Snape looked at them suspiciously, and left the restaurant with Harry.

Lily cast a levitation spell on the trays, making them float in mid-air, and they only need a slight push to float forward.

Everyone has a tray full of food floating in front of them, making them look a little goofy.Snape looked dissatisfied at the dangling tray in front of him, and gave Harry Potter a hard look, "Where are we going?"

"Go to the eighth floor."

"Eighth floor?" Lily raised her eyebrows.

"Are you stupid, Potter?" Ever since they reconciled, Snape hadn't missed any opportunity to sarcasm Harry.

Harry walked ahead and led the way, "Of course you're not stupid. Don't be so arrogant, you might be so excited that you'll call me mom when you get there." Harry turned his head and grinned at Snape.

Snape glared at him. "Are you gender neutral, Potter?"

"So you want to call me Dad?"

Snape: "..."

"Okay, stop making trouble." Lily was a little panting, they had already climbed to the seventh floor, and it was tiring to climb from the first floor to the eighth floor. "Harry, where are we going?"

Harry turned his head and smiled mysteriously at them, "That's a good place, we call it—the Room of Requirement."

Snape asked puzzledly, "Responsiveness—?"

"Anything you ask for."

"Ha, what an idiot is talking about."

"Hogwarts has a lot of secrets," Harry said as he climbed up to the eighth floor, "you'll know when you see it." He came to the opposite side of the Barnabas tapestry and walked three times in the same place.

Suddenly, a door carved with complicated patterns appeared on the wall.

"...God!"

Lily's eyes widened, and she couldn't wait to rush up and push the door open.Snape followed behind them, reached out his hand to touch the handle of the door, closed the door casually, and then the door disappeared.

"Harry! Harry! I love you so much!" Lily rushed in and walked back and forth several times around the bookshelf on that wall.

Snape was also stunned, he looked around, "Did you move...you brought your study here?"

Harry laughed triumphantly, and patted the redneck Snape on the shoulder, "Of course not, as I said earlier, everything is here."

Snape curled his lips, waved Harry's hand away in disgust, walked to the sofa in the middle of the study and sat down, tumbling on it, as if checking the quality of the sofa.

The study room is full of bookshelves all around, leaving only a gap in the middle, where a set of sofas and a few armchairs are placed, and a large coffee table is placed in the middle of the sofa.There was a fire burning in the fireplace next to it, which added some warm colors to the bright study room. Although it was already summer, the room was not stuffy at all.

Lily ran over with a pile of books in her arms, and fell down on the soft sofa, her face was dreamy, "This is really wonderful——"

Harry watched her and couldn't help shivering.

They put the tray on the tea table, and the three of them sat together, had dinner, and started studying.

And then, the drinks that Harry brought came in handy, and they spent the whole night here, and if it wasn't for those drinks, they would have been thirsty and left.

It can be said that Snape and Lily came back here with a lot of rewards. Lily got tired of staying on the sofa for the last time, followed in the footsteps of her friends, and stepped out of the door of the Room of Requirement.

Outside the door, Snape and Harry were confronting the marauding foursome.

The four of them waited outside for a long time, and finally they came out before the curfew.

James stood beside him with his hands folded on his chest. Judging from his expression alone, he was not in a very good mood. "Harry, I want to talk to you." He said, looking up at Snape, " As for you, you can... go." He glanced at Harry and swallowed the scroll.

But Sirius obviously didn't think so. He propped up the wall with one hand, blocked Snape, and raised his eyebrows at him, "Hey, Mr. Snotluck, remember that incisor game stick?"

Lily stood at the door stupidly, she looked at them in surprise, and shouted loudly: "What are you doing?!"

No matter how you look at this scene, it looks like a fight.

Remus seemed to want to make himself invisible, the situation was too difficult with Lily and Harry on one side and his brothers on the other.He walked over to Lily and tried to comfort her, but it didn't seem to be working.

"James Potter!" Lily stared at James, trying to draw Snape to her side, but Snape didn't seem to appreciate it, and shook off Lily's hand without hesitation.

"Harry," James said so quickly that he didn't even pay attention to Lily who was angry, "you were strangers before, I don't know why you suddenly became friends with him, but... listen, don't interrupt, listen I say! I don't want you getting too close to Snape."

"James," Harry looked at him dumbfounded, "we're friends, trust me, Snape is actually a nice guy."

"There are too many good people!" James seemed a little anxious, and he glanced at Lily who was on the brink of explosion again, "Is there any advantage in Snape that you should be friends with him? He never speaks well, open his mouth Keeping your mouth shut is sarcasm, and you can't see others being kind, I've never seen such a narrow-minded person!"

James looked a little agitated, his face flushed a little.

Harry shrugged. He looked at James and smiled, reaching out to pat his arm, "I know."

"You know?" James looked like he had swallowed a fly.

"Ok, I know."

"Did Snape give you a love potion?!" James grabbed his younger brother's head, wanting to see what's inside, "You'd better stay away from him, that guy is abnormal!"

"Hey!" Harry tried to save his neck, he was almost stretched by the giraffe, "don't worry!"

"Are you stupid, Snape waited for you all night that day!"

Harry was taken aback, "What did you say?"

"I said, on the night when the moon was full, Snape thought it was you who asked him out, and he waited for you outside all night!" He seemed to think that he was not strong enough, "It's at the door of the fifth greenhouse, that's the date holy place."

"You mean, Snape, to like me?" Harry looked at James confused.

"I'm not sure, but I can't rule it out." James put his arms around his brother's neck, and he seemed to want to say something, but he just hugged Harry and rubbed his hair vigorously.

Harry smiled as if he was relieved, "Don't be ridiculous, James, this is absolutely impossible, I can assure you." Harry also put his arm around James' shoulder and patted him hard.He looked at Lily, who had blown her hair, and then at James. Lily was the love of Snape's life, but Harry didn't want to fire at this time.

James seems to have compromised, and the two brothers hooked up shoulder to shoulder in a harmonious atmosphere, but what happened on the other side.Snape's expression was unkind, and Sirius' eyes were spitting fire, and a fight was about to start.

Harry walked between the two of them, trying to pull Sirius away.

"Don't touch me, boy." Sirius stepped back half a step away from Harry.

"Sirius, I really don't want to see you fighting with Snape." Harry looked at Sirius sincerely with his green eyes open. He always thought that Sirius would like him.

"Ha, why?"

Harry looked at the arrogant Sirius, smiled, and said affirmatively, "Because you are my brother."

Sirius stared at Harry, he suddenly grabbed a handful of hair, turned around and walked away without looking back, "...Damn it!"

Harry looked at Sirius' leaving back and smiled silently.
