Chapter 422 On the Right Path
Voldemort's impotent rage did not stir Sherlock's heart.

At this time, he was silently observing the state of Voldemort possessing Harry, holding the crown in his hand and thinking about something in his heart.

Under the nervous gaze of Professor McGonagall Snape and Lily, Sherlock suddenly stretched out his finger, pointed at Voldemort's head and tapped it lightly, and he passed out directly.

Sherlock stood up, looked at Snape and the others with serious faces and said.

"Under normal circumstances, there should be nothing I can do about Harry's current situation. The connection between him and Voldemort is very deep. Under the influence of the Horcrux's effectiveness, Harry's soul has already merged with Voldemort. The remnant souls of Voldemort are entangled together, which is probably why he appeared on Harry after Voldemort was killed."

Snape and the others breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that Sherlock hadn't finished speaking.

"But he's being smart enough to take this crown out of the Room of Requirement, and that's really giving us an opportunity."

Sherlock raised the Ravenclaw Diadem in his hand.

"Voldemort's Horcrux can bring me a great improvement in a short period of time. With my current state and the improvement during this period of time, I should have the opportunity to control Voldemort's soul and take him out of Harry's body. separate from."

Snape's complexion didn't improve much, he still asked with an ugly face.

"What do you mean by chance?"

"Literally, because I had already made such an attempt yesterday afternoon, but it failed at that time, failing to separate Voldemort's soul from his body. Now Harry's condition is worse than that It won't be much better once, so I can only say try, there is no guarantee of success."

"What if it doesn't work out?"

Sherlock turned his gaze to Harry lying on the ground.

"Harry's life is indeed tied to Voldemort. Killing Harry is tantamount to killing him. But in the same way, if he dies in Harry's body, then Harry must have no chance of living. If If it doesn’t work, I will give up trying for the time being, and first stabilize the situation, and then think of other ways.”

At the end of the sentence, he didn't look at Snape, but set his eyes on Lily, whose figure was so illusory that it was like a bubble.

"Even if the problem on Harry's side is bad, we can still find a way to solve it later, but you don't have much time."

Sherlock's words made Snape, who was already suspicious of Lily's change, alert immediately.

"Lily, is she like this?"

Sherlock's voice was calm with some emotion.

"She is not Lily's real soul. I told you before that the spell I asked you to send her was just an attempt. Even if this attempt was successful, it only retained a part of Lily's soul. You can Think of this as a variant of the Horcrux."

"And Harry is the soil where she lives, but if the broken soul is likened to a flower that is about to wither, then Harry's flowerpot is also limited. Now that Voldemort's remnant soul is squeezed in, it is equivalent to squeezing her The remnant soul was uprooted. As you can see, without the soil, she has no way to exist in this world for long."

Snape turned his head in disbelief and looked at Lily, who had become illusory to the extreme, then stared at Sherlock with those bloodshot eyes, his voice became hoarse and excited.

"Can't I make this soil? Sherlock, you can do something, right? Let Lily rely on my body to continue to survive."

Sherlock shook his head silently under Snape's desperate gaze.

"Let's not say that you don't have the connection between defensive magic and Lily at all. It's like having soil but it's dry soil. Even in terms of the condition of close relatives, you don't meet it. So, I'm sorry, Severer Si, it's not that I don't want to help you, but you'd better cherish the time now. I'm going to prepare for Harry's affairs."

Compared to Snape's despair, Sherlock and others' silence, Lily, as the person involved, behaved very flatly.

With a gentle smile on her face, she looked at Harry lying on the ground, and then shifted her gaze to Sherlock.

"I have the opportunity to participate in Harry's growth for nearly two years. I am really grateful to you, Professor Forrest. Thank you for teaching and taking care of Harry when I was away, and thank you for making our mother and son There is still a chance to meet again after so many years, you have done enough for us, Harry will ask you to take care of him in the future."

Sherlock waved his hands, didn't say anything, but clenched the crown in his hand, and squatted down in front of Harry again.

Lily also expressed her thanks to Dumbledore and Professor McGonagall, and finally she set her sights on Snape, whose head was lowered, his body trembling slightly, and he was in a daze.

"sorry"

Snape's voice was also trembling, as if he was in a cold cellar and couldn't feel any warmth.

"Apologize, you've said it to me many, many times, 20 years ago, Severus."

Lily looked at her with no complaints or disgust on her face, only a smile like the warm afternoon sun.

"You apologized to me when you were in school, but I never said anything to forgive you at that time, because I don't think you have changed at all. But people always change, don't they?"

Snape didn't speak, or rather, his current state of mind made it impossible for him to know what kind of syllables should be produced after he opened his mouth.

"So you must remember, at the professor that night, the promise I made with 'Professor Slughorn,' right?"

He didn't know where Lily's words started, Snape felt his cheeks itch, and the liquid that slipped from the corners of his eyes had already washed his face.

Lily's question made him cry, and he could only speak vaguely.

"I remember."

"If one day, he really reforms himself, stops being entangled with those people, stops studying those messy magic, and honestly studies the potion he is most interested in, it is best to come to Hogwarts If Ci becomes a professor, it means he has really changed for the better. At that time, I will look at him with admiration, and we may be friends again."

With the identity of Lily 20 years later, she and Snape, who is now showing her true colors, recounted her promise that day again with a smile.

Lily Evans tilted her head, with a smile as bright as the sun on her face, just like the summer vacation when the Hogwarts admission letter was not received, the boys and girls were in the gray spider's end alley, Talking about magic, happily looking forward to the future.

"Severus, as my best friend before and after death, you must insist on walking on the right path in the future."
