The Mightiest Badger at Hogwarts

Instead of getting better after Christmas, the weather in Hogwarts got worse.

The thick dark clouds in the sky were throwing snow down all the time. Those snowflakes kept rising and falling in mid-air with the wind. By the time they hit the ground, they had already connected into a large piece, like a ball of cotton wool.

Whether the weather is good or bad has little to do with the students. Those half-year-olds at Hogwarts don't know what cold is. No matter how cold the weather is, they will still run outside, either to play Quidditch or Just a snowball fight.

There are also some young lovers who specially choose such days to go out for a walk - they call it fun.

The person who was really unlucky because of the weather was Filch.

Due to heavy snowfall for several days in a row, thick snow accumulated all over Hogwarts. In some places, there was even a layer of snow more than one meter deep. Shorter students could step into it and disappear in the blink of an eye. , very dangerous.

It's up to Filch to clean up these.

As soon as Link and Emily came out of the auditorium at noon, they saw Filch shoveling snow on the steps outside alone, carrying a shovel.

This scene looks really miserable.

Because Filch not only had to deal with the ice and snow on the ground that had almost turned into ice and condensed together, but he also had to always be on guard against the snowballs thrown by the naughty students around him.

Link just watched quietly, with no intention of going up to help.

Filch didn't need it either.

He stubbornly believed that this was his job and a gift from Dumbledore. Rushing to help him with magic would only make him feel that it was a mockery of him as a squib.

Shaking his head, Link said to Emily:

"Come on, it's time for us to go to the potions classroom."

Emily rolled her eyes at him, deliberately turned her head and said:

"You should go take classes with your know-it-all lady. I saw you had a great time getting along with her last night!"

A jealous woman is cute, but also scary.

Especially for this kind of jealousy, don't think that you can rely on time for the woman to resolve it, because it actually consumes past feelings.

When this little affection is used up, then this relationship will be over.

This is something Link understood in his previous life.

So Link didn't even hesitate at all, and regardless of the classmates watching around him, he directly hugged Emily into his arms and kissed her hard.

This is not counting.

Link then took out a pair of emerald earrings from his pocket and hung them on Emily's ears and said:

"Don't be angry. You should know that I love you!"

After this set of operations, Emily was completely confused.

She lay in Link's arms and stared blankly at Link until she noticed that more and more people had gathered around to watch the excitement, and when Link saw that she didn't respond and was about to kiss her again, she screamed. With a cry, he covered his face and ran towards the Potions classroom.

Even if she was running away, Emily's back was still so beautiful in Link's eyes.

Especially the pair of huge emerald earrings that swayed with Emily's movements were very dazzling.

This earring was carefully selected by Old Kled from the Lestrange vault. At first glance, Link thought it matched Emily's temperament. Now that he saw it, it was indeed the case.

Link nodded with satisfaction, and when he saw that the crowd around him was still huddled together and refused to disperse, he raised his eyebrows proudly towards them.

He didn't care if anyone was watching. Things between young lovers should be beautiful, especially for the talented and beautiful people like him and Emily. The onlookers should obediently offer their blessings to them.

As soon as this idea came to Link's mind, whistles and applause broke out from the crowd.

Link looked closely and realized it was George and Fred.

The two guys were sitting on their feet in the middle of the crowd, clapping and whistling while winking and looking obscene.

This scene ruined the good mood that Link had just gained from admiring Emily's back. He gave the two brothers a middle finger and walked out of the auditorium.

By the time Link arrived at the Potions classroom, the gloomy classroom was already full of people.

Emily was sitting in the same seat where they usually sat. She kept touching the earrings on her ears and twitching her little head. She seemed to be in a good mood, so much so that Link even walked behind her. Couldn't find it.

It wasn't until Link sat down on the specially reserved seat next to her and coughed twice on purpose that Emily trembled, her little hands quickly retracted and stacked on her thighs, and her head turned away on purpose.

This sight made the smile on Link's face even brighter.

He didn't care that he was in the classroom, and stretched out his hand to cover the back of Emily's hand.

The resistance coming from the hand could only be described as insignificant. Link held Emily's hand in his hand without any force.

It was only then that Link discovered that Emily's hands were so nervous that they were covered in sweat.

Feeling funny, Link looked up at Emily again and saw that the ears with the pair of emerald earrings were already covered with a layer of pink.

"Bam—"

The door to the classroom was kicked open violently, and Snape, expressionless and murderous, walked into the classroom. He walked up to the podium at a fast pace, and in the process, he patted a Slytherin on the head who was chatting quietly with the people next to him. A slap.

"Get your textbooks out and start class!"

Snape slammed the textbook onto the podium and officially announced the start of the course.

Seeing this, Link calmed down a little, but he still held Emily's hand but refused to let go, even if Emily struggled harder, it was of no avail.

Snape's lessons were actually very boring, especially for Link, whose learning progress was far ahead of others.

Throughout the whole class, Snape maintained the same attitude towards Link and Emily as before, neither asking questions nor paying attention.

It was as if everything that happened in the Room of Requirement last night was just a dream.

This is actually a means of concealment.

After all, being held up against the wall by one of his students by the collar was really unacceptable to a strong person like Snape.

Link even thought that Snape might be so angry that he stayed up all night after recovering from his emotions.

This was something Snape could forget, but Link remembered clearly.

That was the only honest conversation he had with Snape in a while.

This is a rare thing. After all, both of them are masters of Occlumency and Legilimency. Covering up and disguise have long been their instinct.

During this period, Link expressed his purpose to Snape in a very subtle way by default.

Snape also very accurately drew a red line for Link - Harry could not be touched.

It's just that Snape finally revealed the information about Dumbledore and Voldemort to him, which made Link a little sad.

Because he discovered that Snape seemed to think that he wanted to turn himself from a double agent into a triple agent in order to obtain more information for him.

The result was painful for Snape.

But this was Snape's own fault.

Snape has always been such a troubled character.

The painful experiences in the past have made his soul covered with sharp thorns, turning him into a hedgehog, instinctively rejecting the goodwill of the outside world and refusing to accept new things.

This is a disease!

Link didn't intend to explain anything to Snape.

Just like what he told Snape, he wanted to keep Snape alive. This had nothing to do with Snape himself, it was just Link's will.

Link also believes that he is fully capable of achieving this.

As for Snape's inner problems, that's simpler.

Link always thought that the reason why Snape could not forget Harry's mother was because he had too little knowledge.

Snape's youthful regrets would have been eliminated long ago in a stable society.

As for the methods of digestion, there are generally only two ways.

First, Snape encountered new feelings later, and he was relieved after the ebb and flow of love.

The second is that Snape was still obsessed with Harry's mother, and was eventually tortured into a semi-madman who did some nasty things, and then was beaten up by the famous rich second generation James Potter, Sirius and others. Sent to Azkaban and died under the torture of dementors.

The only problem is that Snape lives in a troubled society and has joined the Death Eaters.

The Death Eaters, who were covered in black mist and looked like they were not good people at first glance, would not dare to get close to them, let alone any sweet love.

Later, after the fall of Voldemort, Snape, who was turned into a 'hedgehog', although he could be regarded as a diamond king with a successful career, he had no intention of messing around.

Ever since, an extremely troubled Snape was born.

When everything settles down, Link plans to tie up Snape and go to see the colorful world of Muggles.

This treatment process will probably be a bit tragic at first due to Snape's strong resistance, but Link believes that once Snape gets used to it, he will probably enjoy it.

After all, human beings are far more adaptable than they think.

……

At the end of a Potions class, Snape had no idea what kind of crazy treatment plan Link had planned for him. He threw his robes and left in a hurry, leaving only the students in the classroom who were full of fear on their faces.

This was almost the norm in Snape's classroom.

After all, no one can look good after being bombarded with vicious words for two hours.

But Link and Emily were a surprise.

As soon as Snape left, Link took Emily's hand and left the classroom talking and laughing.

Judging from the results of the preliminary investigation of the Legilimency spell, after two hours of intense 'coaxing', the jealousy in Emily's heart had been completely replaced by shyness and joy.

Link thought this was great news, and he was prepared to spend the rest of his life with Emily.

The two of them walked through the corridors and auditorium and into the foyer, but instead of continuing to their respective common rooms, they headed outside the castle.

At first, Emily thought Link wanted to take her for a walk. She still maintained her original sweet state, holding Link's arm tightly and smiling innocently.

But when she saw Newland and Skeffen waiting on the steps outside the castle, she immediately understood that things were not that simple.

The expression on her face soon became serious again, and her whole person almost instantly changed from a little girl immersed in love to a domineering nobleman.

Newland and Skeffen had actually discovered Link and Emily when they first entered the auditorium.

But at this moment, the two people unanimously chose to forget the scene they just saw, and saluted Link and Emily respectfully.

Emily nodded to them expressionlessly, but turned sideways and whispered to Link:

"What are you going to do?"

"Go hunting in the Forbidden Forest and do some serious things along the way." Link raised his eyebrows and said, "And the problem with what you said is not 'you', but us. You have to go with us this time."

Emily frowned when she heard this.

She has no interest in the unprovoked killing hobby of hunting, and it can even be said that she hates it.

Because hunting, a sport like this, would mess up her demeanor, which was unacceptable to Emily, who always wanted to look her best in front of Link.

So after thinking for a moment, Emily shook her head and said:

"I'm not interested in this kind of thing, you can go on your own."

Link's expression suddenly became weird. He stared at Emily for a while, and then smiled:

"You really don't want to go? I didn't want you to be jealous anymore, so I specifically said I wanted to take you with me."

"Who is jealous? I just..."

Emily rolled her eyes and spoke to Link anxiously.

But before he finished speaking, he heard a familiar voice coming from behind him.

"Link! Sorry, Ron and Harry were delayed by Professor McGonagall because of their Christmas vacation homework, so they were a little late."

Naturally it was Hermione who spoke.

She trotted towards this side of the Great Hall, followed by Harry and Ron.

It's just that both of them looked depressed and their hair was messy. It looked like they had been taught a lesson by Hermione.

Emily stopped talking as soon as she saw Hermione and returned to her elegant aristocratic posture.

Not only that, she also raised her head deliberately so that the pair of emerald earrings given to her by Link would sway, so that Hermione could see them immediately.

In fact, this is completely unnecessary.

The gems on the pair of earrings are too big and conspicuous enough.

Sure enough, the smile on Hermione's face froze the moment she saw Emily.

Her brisk steps stopped suddenly, so much so that she almost collided with Harry and Ron behind her.

This made Harry and Ron instinctively open their mouths to complain, but they obediently shut their mouths after seeing Hermione's expression.

Emily is in a similar situation.

At this time, Newland and Si Gefen wished they could melt into the steps under their feet - the smell of gunpowder at the scene was too strong!

Just when the atmosphere between Emily and Hermione began to become more and more tense, Link intervened between the two and said:

"Okay, now that everyone is here, let's set off! Harry, are you sure you still remember the place?"

"Of course!" Harry replied quickly, "There are Hagrid's marks all along the road. I will definitely not forget it."

"Wait a minute!" Emily frowned and said to Link, "What exactly are you going to hunt? You actually need these guys to lead the way?"

Apparently being called 'these guys' didn't sit well with Hermione.

Newland and Scott could hear the crunching sound of her teeth from a distance.

Unfortunately, Emily Ming ignored her and continued to look at Link.

Seeing this, Link shrugged his shoulders, spread his hands and said with a smile:

"giant!"
