HP heard I should be a Death Eater

Sirius opened his mouth, unable to refute.Their fights with Slytherins had indeed always started on the Gryffindor side.

But there is a reason for that!If Snape wasn't so...so lingering, no one would always have trouble with him.

Lily was always talking about how nice that bastard was, and Signus was always treating him differently, and even the most blood-conscious Slytherins were starting to accept him.Sirius couldn't figure out what was so special about Snape!

"Siegel."

When a woman's familiar voice came, Sirius shuddered and froze into a statue.Signus was very indifferent, turned around and smiled at the person: "Mom?"

Mrs. Black did not appear alone, and Andromeda's mother, Alice Black, was also here. The two ladies seemed to be just out shopping and happened to meet them.

"Are you completing the task your father entrusted to you?" Mrs. Black came over, her eyes were only on the eldest son, and she couldn't see Sirius next to her: "Let's talk about these things tomorrow, it's almost noon, and Alice and I are looking for A restaurant, and you too."

"Okay." Signus obediently agreed.

He has always been very obedient in front of Mrs. Black, and wizards in the British wizarding world know it, so they envy Mrs. Black for having a good son.When Sirius was at home, he was already used to seeing his brother's obedient appearance, but seeing him now, there was a sense of irony, which made him explode the anger he had suppressed for a year, and shouted directly on the street: "He's just pretending , if he is really an obedient and good baby from the Black family, how could he make friends with a half-breed poor ghost like Snape!"

Sirius' voice was loud, attracting all the wizards around to look over, but Mrs. Black just glanced at him coldly: "Sir, please pay attention to your etiquette. I have to say that even a half-breed is much better than you." gone."

Sirius was dumbfounded, he knew that for Black, inferior to half-blood was definitely the most contemptuous statement.If he had the confidence to say before that his mother was only angry because of the sorting, now he finally understands that Mrs. Black is really disappointed in him.

But why?Sirius stared blankly at his mother holding his brother's hand and leaving in front of him, still unable to understand what heinous thing he had done.In the end, everything can only be attributed to the paranoia of the Black family and Slytherin's indelible prejudice against Gryffindor.

"Don't waste time with him in the future." On the way to the restaurant, Mrs. Black said to her eldest son.His tone was as cold as if he was referring to a stranger.

Signus laughed, and said indifferently, "Why bother, he has nothing to do with the family anymore."

"I feel sick even seeing him." Mrs. Black frowned, not talking about her own son at all: "He has been a stain on the Black family all his life. What do you think people say about him?" Son'! Can this be called okay! If it really doesn’t matter, those people should understand that now the second son of the Black family is Leil, and the Black family only has two sons.”

Signus knew what he should say at this time, but he really couldn't say it, so he only patted Mrs. Black's hand comfortingly, and changed the topic away.Alice Black, who was walking on the other side, heard his intentions, and talked cooperatively about the little dress she had just fancy.

The three of them entered the restaurant together, and a waiter came over immediately and took them to the private room.At this time, Mrs. Black, who was leading the way all the way, joined hands with her sister again, letting her son walk in front.Signus didn't pay attention to this little detail. The waiter strode into the box as soon as the door was opened, and then realized that Andromeda was already waiting for them here.The other party obviously didn't expect to see him, and couldn't help frowning.

Signus froze for a moment, then reacted, put on a smile: "Hello, Andromeda."

"Hello." The girl nodded, barely restraining her emotions.She was no better than Signus, she had all sorts of things from the family and Death Eaters to keep herself busy, and the marriage brainwashing around her every day since the holidays made her gradually numb from the initial fierce opposition.Now she has understood what kind of attitude can make herself a little easier.

Anyway, no one would care about her until school starts, so it's better to put on a show for myself to live better during this time.Andromeda was reluctant to think about it, but she was still not good at disguising it. Adults could tell that little thoughtfulness at a glance, but it was not to the point where she had to be exposed.

Lunch was quite long for the two young people, and Andromeda almost had the word "forced" written on her face.Signus didn't think it was difficult to act in front of the ladies, but anyone who was rejected by a girl he didn't like three times and four times would not feel happy.As a result, the two wives have never been able to arouse their desire to communicate, and they can only say goodbye to each other after the meal.

"You should take the initiative." Mrs. Black watched her sister leave, turned around and said to her eldest son.

Signus could hear that there wasn't much reproach in that sentence, so he shrugged casually: "She doesn't interest me."

Judging from the expression, Mrs. Black obviously agrees with her son's feelings, but this kind of approval is not conducive to the marriage plan of the two families at all.She coughed to cover up, and said seriously: "Your marriage is a certainty, even if you're not interested, you still have to marry her."

Signus smiled: "I see. But since it's just a marriage, there's no need to cultivate a relationship, what do you think?"

Mrs. Black thought for a while and accepted the eldest son's argument.There are many married families in the magic world, and of course not every couple is very loving.But as the wife of the head of the Black family, she still hopes that the heir and his wife can be harmonious.

In order to get her son interested in marriage, on the way home, Mrs. Black told a lot of little stories between her youth and Mr. Black—Orion Black.It is intended to prove that even if two people have no relationship at the beginning, they can get happiness through getting along.Signus listened absent-mindedly, silent on the surface, but he was retorting loudly in his heart.

Father and mother were cousins ​​who had a good relationship, and there was a family relationship between them.And after so many years, Signus couldn't see their happiness at all.Most of the time, these two people still get along like siblings, and since Regulus was born, they have never had sex again.

They didn't have the kind of interest between men and women at all, which was in line with the situation between him and Andromeda.

Mrs. Black's story made people more and more disturbed. After returning home, Signus found a reason to get into the study, and went out again not long after.He's had enough of the wizarding world, there's nowhere to relax for a while.

There was a Muggle street outside Black's old house, and Signus walked aimlessly to the coffee shop where he and Andromeda stayed together on the first night of the holiday.Located at a fork in the road, the environment is so-so, but it is open 24 hours, and most of the customers are tired Muggle salarymen.Signus found a corner to nestle in, and casually ordered black coffee.

He reached into his trousers pocket for two Muggle pounds, but instead came across a small, hard object.He knew what it was, after all, it was something he never forgot to take with him wherever he went every day.

When the waiter saw the customer stop suddenly, he coughed impatiently. Signus came back to his senses, and took out a palm-sized double-sided mirror, as well as the crumpled pound that had been in his pocket for an unknown amount of time.

"A cup of black coffee, please wait a moment." The waiter turned indifferently and left.

At 4 or 5 p.m. on the Muggle streets, there was still a steady stream of pedestrians, and the TV in the coffee shop was rebroadcasting the noon news.Signus held the mirror in both hands, looking at the TV, the images sent back by reporters from the Vietnam battlefield.

"Muggle..." He bowed his head.The unenchanted mirror was as ordinary as a Muggle product, and it was shining on his listless face.

The waiter came back quickly with coffee, and Signus wanted to say thank you, but the speed of the other party's departure did not give him a chance to speak.

"Muggles." He muttered again, lowering his head and continuing to "look in the mirror".

I'm just curious, Signus thought, looking at Snape's pile of second-hand luggage, it's not difficult to guess that he should live in a fairly civilian place in Muggle London, what kind of place would it be like, for their kind Isn't it curious for the young master of the big family?

And Snape is really too unlovable. After such a long vacation, he didn't even contact him once.Although the function of this double-sided mirror is different from that of ordinary double-sided mirrors, if Snape tries to use it, he will definitely know it immediately.

The coffee in hand went from steaming to cold, Signus finally found enough reasons, left here in a good mood, and turned into an alley not far away.He held the mirror tightly, and the magic power gradually lit up the lines on the mirror, and then there was a snap, and the alley instantly became empty, only the stray dog ​​who was leisurely looking for food just now was startled by the sudden disappearance of humans, with its tail between its legs Ran away.

What was recent in the wizarding world was remote to Snape.Since returning home, Hogwarts has become like a dream. He is still facing the drunk man who drinks every day, and his mother who holds unrealistic hopes and goes out early and returns late for that man every day. .

But there are also differences. Hogwarts let him know that the world is not only as big as Spider's End. In a wider world, he is fully capable of gaining recognition on his own.He's not a little devil bringing bad luck, a wretch suffering from domestic violence.He is a wizard with an excellent potion talent, and he will definitely be able to stand at the top of the magic world in the future.

A year of study made him understand himself more and more like a wizard, and it also made his mother more and more disturbed, and made his father look disgusted whenever he saw him.Snape didn't care what that man thought, but his mother loved him after all, so he proposed to his mother for a divorce during the holiday.A woman who only had love in her heart couldn't hear words like divorce, so she asked Snape to move to the tool room behind the yard that had been vacant for a long time the next day.

She thought that perhaps she shouldn't send her son to a school in the wizarding world, but as soon as this idea appeared, she was immediately suppressed by herself.She has already felt sorry for the family, so how can she let the last blood of the Prince family leave the magic world completely.

Snape was grimly cleaning up the tool shed when Signus appeared.The house that had been neglected for several years was full of dust, and the mess and debris from when the family first moved to Spider's End were all stuffed here, and it was hard to know what to do with it.Signus appeared directly in the dust on his face, coughing unsuspectingly, and Snape was taken aback by the movement.

"Why are you here!" Snape might have yelled if it wasn't for the poor soundproofing of the house in Spinner's End.

Signus was still coughing, and raised the mirror in his hand upon hearing this.Snape frowned: "Two-way mirror?"

"Ahem, no..." Signus breathed a sigh of relief, and smiled at him: "This is actually a two-way door key, which communicates with your mirror."

So what he said when he gave him the mirror before the holiday was a lie, Snape thought blankly, but looking at the dusty smile on Signus's face, he found that he was not angry about it, but quite happy. Nice to see him over the holidays.

"So, if I use that mirror, I'm going straight to Black's?" He thought it better to ask first.

Signus shook his head: "Not necessarily, I am often outside during this time, and you may also appear in Diagon Alley or other places. In addition, when I am with Death Eaters, I will temporarily lock the key, so you can I can't make it through."

He keeps the mirror with him all the time?Snape raised his eyebrows and thought, Signus didn't pay attention to what he had exposed, and looked around the house they were in: "What kind of place is this?"

"Where I will live from now on," Snape said.

Signus looked incredulous: "How do you live?"

Snape pointed to the pile of cleaning tools at the door: "I'm about to clean."

"Use these things and don't even think about cleaning them up in a single holiday." The young master said with disgust, he pulled out his wand and used a simple housework magic.The dust in the room disappeared immediately, and the things that could be used were sorted and arranged by themselves. The lights on the ceiling emitted a series of sparks and turned on again.

Snape looked at all this and reminded: "You can't use magic during the holidays."

Signus didn't care at all: "This wand isn't registered in my name, what are you afraid of?" Besides, even if he really used his own wand, wouldn't the Ministry of Magic dare to come and issue him a fine?

After tidying up the tool room, the space was twice as large as Snape's previous bedroom, just enough to fit a set of potion equipment.Snape stood in the middle of the house, beginning to wonder why his mother had driven him here.Signus was already comfortably seated on the old sofa, looking boneless again.

"Little devil, what are you thinking?"

Snape shook his head: "It's nothing." He found the things needed to make potions from the pile of things that moved with him in the corner, and laid them out on the table one by one.

Signus got a headache from watching it, so he simply closed his eyes: "You have to do these things during the holidays? Can't you take a break?"

"I need tuition."

"You can get a scholarship for your grades."

Snape looked annoyed: "But I deducted almost 20 points last year. According to the school regulations, if you deduct more than [-] points in each academic year, you will lose your scholarship eligibility."

Signus was at a loss: "Is there such a rule?"

Snape looked at him like he was talking nonsense.

Signus smiled sarcastically, and asked again, "What kind of potions do you use?"

Snape mentioned a few names, all of which were common primary potions that wizards would basically make themselves, and they were not popular.However, the materials needed for these medicines were not expensive, and Snape was so poor that he could afford the cheapest materials.

Signus thought for a while: "Why don't we cooperate?"

Snape: "..."

"My family knows exactly what is in my treasury, and it is very troublesome to exchange some pounds in private, so I have long wanted to get some private money. I can provide you with materials and contact the buyer... The name of the Black family is There is a potion store, and my father has given it to me to take care of it. It’s a good choice, you just need to concentrate on brewing it. We get fifty-five points for the Golden Galleon, how about it?”

Snape's face was complicated, and he really wanted to ask directly, is the meager income that first-year students can get from selling ordinary potions, is it really enough for Master Black to hide his private house?But seeing Signus' eager expression, he silently swallowed the question back.

"I'll do it in [-] minutes." He finally said dryly.If you can sell intermediate potions, [-]% of your income is enough to pay for next year's tuition.

"Okay." Signus grinned: "But you have to allow me to come and sit often. The magic world is really too boring. I'm really out of breath recently."

That's probably not because the wizarding world is too boring, Snape thought, if Signus is not so rebellious, but like most Slytherins, he worships the Dark Lord from the bottom of his heart, hates Muggles, and thinks that Dumbledore It's just a crazy old man, so he won't feel bored.On the contrary, maybe they will be immersed in the dream of dominating Britain and the world, just like that Miss Bella who looks at people with her chin all day long.

But Signus couldn't do it, Snape couldn't figure out why he could grow up like this among a brood of the most extreme Slytherins...

Oh, by the way, I almost forgot Sirius was born in the Black family.Seen in this way, the existence of Signus is not so strange.
