HP's Impassable Time

Chapter 41 Overheard

It wasn't until Harry was taken away by Professor Moody, followed by Sirius, and Digory's body was taken out of the arena by his father, that the piercing screams around him gradually stopped.

Everyone heard what Harry said that Voldemort was back, but not everyone believed it. Before the screams started and the crowd was completely chaotic, Draco put his arms around Lily, fearing that someone would bump into her. She didn't feel it, her eyes were a little empty, she didn't know what was wrong with her, but she felt as if someone was calling her name, but she didn't know who it was, except Snape himself didn't have the right to give anyone his name.

After the crowd calmed down, the professors asked the prefects to take the students from their respective colleges back to the dormitory, but none of the professors personally led the team, and everyone was busy. Draco hugged Lily and followed the Slytherin team in a daze Going forward, he is no longer the ignorant boy he was back then. The training during the previous holidays was not just for show. He knows that if the mysterious person returns, it will bring a great impact to the magic world, and his own home will also be different. , he remembered his father's expression when he talked about the mysterious man.

It seems that no one has time to take care of others now. Abel looked gloomy, his whole face was turning white, his hands were shaking, and he followed the team like a walking dead. No one wanted to talk, and the long line seemed to be about to leave. The ghosts on the way to Sanchuan are silent.

Until entering the dormitory, most people chose to go back to the dormitory, and some were discussing what happened just now in the study room, most of them were seniors, and Draco put Lily on the sofa.

"Lily?"

"what?"

"are you OK?"

"Ok!"

Lily nestled herself on the sofa, as if she had no interest in anything, and Draco saw Lily as if he wanted to stay by himself and planned to leave.

"Draco!"

When Draco turned around, Lily stopped him.

"Ok?"

"Sit with me for a while!" Lily patted the sofa next to her.

Draco sat next to Lily, and he looked sideways at Lily.

The two sat there until very late, until everyone went back to the dormitory, until Lily was so sleepy that she fell asleep on the sofa.

Draco took out a thick blanket from his dormitory to cover Lily, took out his wand, made the sofa a little more comfortable, sat back in his original position, and continued to look at Lily, as if he could carve Lily into his body. In her mind and heart, she can no longer escape.

***

The next day was the day when students from the other two schools left, and it was also the day when everyone went home by train.In the early morning, the school organized a mourning meeting for Cedric Diggory, and all three schools participated. After the end, everyone bid farewell to each other in the atrium. Lily only attended the morning meeting and then went back to the Slytherin lounge , she didn't know anyone to send her off.

Recalling that she woke up in the hall in the morning, next to Draco leaning on his face, his eyes were closed, there was a patch of black and blue under his eyes, he seemed not in good spirits, and he was covered with a thick veil There was a dark green blanket with a unique fragrance, and Lily had never seen this blanket in a public classroom, so... She looked at Draco who was not sleeping peacefully beside him.

Even with a haggard look, Draco is still very beautiful or handsome. She likes Draco's meticulous care and constant concern for her, which makes her feel a sense of security. In fact, this feeling sometimes comes inexplicably, but it is It really exists, that's why Lily called Draco to stop last night, and Draco really stayed with her all the time, so it's good--Lily thought.

By noon, people from the other two schools had already left, and Draco was relieved after completing his task of seeing him off. It was impossible for him not to be touched by Cedric's death, but he certainly wasn't. Leigh or other people who know Cedric are older, more of a confusion about the future and a fear of death. At this time, he clearly realizes that death is around him, not decades later waiting.

When Draco returned to the dormitory, he didn't see Lily in the common room, nor at lunch. He was a little surprised where Lily went?Then he asked a few people around Lily, and they all said they didn't know. Alan was always comforting Joanna, so it was normal for the two of them not to know. Why doesn't Bull know Lily's whereabouts, and even Abel doesn't know whether Lily attended the mourning service in the morning, which is very abnormal.

At this time, Lily was eavesdropping, eavesdropping on the conversation between Snape and Dumbledore. In the morning, the students were all gathered in the atrium, and the whole school could be said to be empty, so Snape and Dumbledore When the principal was arguing in front of the principal's office, he didn't shy away from the surroundings. Lily happened to use her invisibility spell right away, so she hid in the corner and could hear the conversation between the two very clearly.

"How do you make me trust you!" Snape's voice was low, full of sadness and suppressed anger.

"Severus, you should know that you have no choice now." Dumbledore's voice sounded a little cold, and Lily rarely heard Dumbledore speak in such a serious voice. When it comes out of the cup.

"I don't want Lily to be the second Lily, so I will take care of her myself."

"Yourself? Don't forget that I warned you when you got too close to her at the beginning, but you didn't listen. What are you going to do to keep her safe now?" Dumbledore's words were full of aggressiveness smell.

"It's so difficult that it's safe to let her be used by you!" Snape's voice became louder involuntarily.

Dumbledore said: "I told you at the beginning that she has a very special identity. During the three years she disappeared, no one knew what happened. Even the magic test, which has never been wrong, failed on her. She You have too many secrets, and you will only bring trouble to us if you get too close to her!"

"Us? I don't need your false concern. How did you agree to me back then? I worked as a spy for you, and I went through life and death for you. What did I get in return?" Snape lost control of his emotions again, even what Dumbledore said He controlled his emotions and didn't listen.

"Lily is dead!" Lily couldn't believe what she heard. How could she say she was dead even though she was still standing here?And the missing three years?What three years?What does it have to do with me?

"Keep your voice down, Severus, do you want everyone to know!" Dumbledore's obviously displeased voice interrupted Snape.

Snape's yelling stopped abruptly, and was followed by a low gasp, like the whine of a wounded animal.

Lily's heart was more than shocked.

"Okay, come into the office with me." Then Lily heard the password 'cockroach heap' rubbing against the stone wall, Lily turned around carefully, looked at the spiral staircase slowly moving up, until the spiral staircase returned to its original shape, Lily whispered She said the password and continued to go up the steps incognito. Now as long as it is not running or too strenuous exercise, her spell can be used completely. This is the spell that Lily is most proud of.

After going up the stairs, you can't directly enter the principal's office. There is also a corridor. This is the first time for Lily to come to the principal's office. She carefully casts a silent spell on herself to cover up the sound of her footsteps and breathing.

"...It's not all bait. Since she is born with Parseltongue, it means that she must have some kind of connection with Voldemort. She can only be regarded as an imperfect backup plan. Whether it will be really used at that time is uncertain. Is it safe to let her follow you to the spider's end all the time? Everyone knows your address."

"There is also Prince Manor, I can let Lily go there."

"Still a well-known place!"

"Then you can guarantee that the Dark Lord will not summon Lily? Don't let me take Lily to meet him. As I said before, he is not a human at all, but more like a snake in human form." Snape's voice was controlled It kept trembling and loud, as if making a louder voice would dispel those fears.

And Lily knows that when you try to hide something, it proves that what you concealed one week has actually existed.

"The current Tom will not publicly summon others, unless he obtains more powerful magic power or rights. He is accumulating power. This is our time, Severus. We can solve him before he grows up." Deng Bullido's voice was full of bewitching taste, which made Lily move her body uncomfortably, and continued to listen with another ear.

Lily was wondering who is Tom?If it was Voldemort, Lily remembered the soul in the notebook in the first grade, he said he was Tom, could it be one?But there are so many Toms in the world, unless you know his full name.

"You promise, Dumbledore, I'll trust you one more time, if Lily has anything..." Snape didn't finish his sentence.

"So you fell in love with that unknown Lily? Better than Evans?" Dumbledore's tone was full of danger, and even Lily could hear the blatant malice.

"Call God to guard."

Then the room was quiet for a while, Lily didn't know what the Patronus Curse was for at this time, and there were no dementors, and there was no mention of the Patronus Curse in the spell book Snape gave her, except for dementors. There are other characteristics besides influence.

"It's Lily's..." The danger in Dumbledore's voice disappeared, replaced by disbelief and embarrassment.

"It's always been." Lily could hear the heavy sadness in Snape's voice, and it seemed that Snape was sitting at the Christmas ball that day, facing the steak that had only eaten one bite, and his expression was so empty that it was frightening .

Lily couldn't understand what kind of charades the two were playing, and what relationship did the spirit-calling guard have to her.

"Her parents..." Snape spoke next, but Dumbledore didn't answer, at least not in words.

"I'll let her go to the Order of the Phoenix during the holidays." It was Snape who finally made the compromise, his tone full of exhaustion.

"Very well, this will be the right decision, trust me, Snape." Dumbledore then said something, but it didn't have much to do with him, and he didn't quite understand it, a dog Coming out of a room next to the corridor, Lily was startled, but she looked at the dog very familiarly, and this familiar feeling became clearer as the dog got closer to the office door, that is, closer to Lily.

Finally Lily remembered that it was the dog she had adopted with Mrs. Luo Li and then ran away by herself, and then she saw the dog turned into a man dressed in black, and although Lily was not familiar with this man, But I have the impression that I have seen it a few times, and it is Harry's godfather-Siris Black.

And according to Draco, he has a relationship with him - Draco's mother is Sirius' cousin, although he was expelled from the Black family, Draco's mother still seems to care about him very much.

Sirius didn't notice Lily, so he knocked on the office door, and the door opened quickly. It was Snape who opened the door, and he seemed in a bad mood.

The two separated after staring at each other with hatred. Sirius entered the office, while Snape walked back. Lily didn't take the risk of leaving with Snape. It's better to keep today's matter a secret.

Lily didn't leave until a long time ago, during which she heard Dumbledore and Sirius talking about the Order of the Phoenix and what the Order of the Phoenix was, and Sirius said that his residence needed some cleaning to make it a better headquarters.

"You know no one has lived there for years," Sirius said.

Dumbledore said: "These are not problems, have you been notified about everything I asked you to notify?"

Sirius said: "It's all agreed, but there are a few people who still have doubts about me. They said they hope to see you."

"We'll see, they don't have to worry about that."

Lily saw that the time was almost up, and she didn't want to continue listening to these questions she didn't understand, so she left the principal's office directly.

Lily didn't remove the invisibility spell until she walked a long way, and slowly walked back to the dormitory. On the way, Lily kept thinking about those questions about herself. She didn't know what kind of deal her father and Dumbledore made, and herself What is so suspicious about the identity?What is the strangest thing that has disappeared for three years?Could it be that those three years were related to the strange memories I often dreamed about?

"Lily? Where have you been? Didn't you have lunch?" Matthew's loud voice brought Lily back to reality.

"Ah? I just came back after visiting the Forbidden Forest. What's the matter?" Lily panicked without blushing.

"Oh! Malfoy seems to have been looking for you and asked me several times. If you have nothing to do, go see him. He seems to be in a hurry." Matthew left without waiting for Lily to express anything after finishing the news. Yes, I don't know what I'm busy with.

Lily went back to the dormitory. She didn't really want to eat. She picked up the little black bag thrown on the bed in the morning and rummaged through it. Everything was there. She didn't know what to look forward to in this familiar bag. What.

In the afternoon, Draco and Lily met face to face. Before getting on the train back, Lily would not take the Hogwarts train home, but followed Snape.

"I heard from Matthew that you have something to do with me? What's the matter?" Lily asked when she met Draco.

"It's nothing, I just haven't seen you all morning, so I'm a little worried." Draco didn't know what to say?Said he just wanted to see you?It's too hypocritical.

"It's okay, don't worry, I just went to the Forbidden Forest for a walk." Draco nodded, thinking that Lily went to Momo.

After a moment of silence, Draco said: "I'll be home in a while, I'm afraid I'll be busy during the holidays, if you..." Draco didn't know what Lily could ask him for, so he paused Lily was still waiting for Draco's next words, but she stopped talking after seeing Draco open his mouth a few times.

After thinking for a while, he said, "If I have any questions, I will owl you."

Draco finally breathed a sigh of relief, and looked at Lily softly, "I really hope the vacation ends soon."

"Just two months, soon."

"Ok!"

Later, Lily sent several people to the station. In previous years, Lily did not send them to the station, which made Matthew fuss for a while.

Lily looked at the train going away and watched the white steam gradually dissipate in the air. Today is a very good weather, but Lily standing alone on the platform feels that the weather is very dark, making people inexplicably irritable.

***

In the empty Hogwarts, only Filch and a few professors were there. Dumbledore left with Professor McGonagall when the train left the school. Except for Snape and Professor Trelawney, other professors also left. Come home through the fireplace.

Professor Trelawney stayed at the school most of the time, as if there was no place to live other than the school.

Snape habitually stayed to deal with his own affairs and the things that Dumbledore told him. Lily had packed up her things and put them in Snape's office before, and Snape was in the office. Lily lived in the potions office during school.

"You go back to spend your summer vacation somewhere else this summer."

When Snape came back at night, he said directly to Lily who was still reading the black magic book.Lily knew before that she would be sent to a place called Order of the Phoenix, but she didn't know the time, she didn't expect it to be so soon.

"Where are you going?" The appearance still needs to be done, after all, no one knows that he knows.

"Go to the headquarters of the Order of the Phoenix, and I will take you there in a few days." Snape paused, Lily continued to read without raising her head, "Why don't you spend the summer vacation at home? The plants in the greenhouse I still need to take care of it!"

The plants Lily was talking about were the glass greenhouse she had built in the backyard of Spider's End. Before school started, Snape had hired a house-elf to take over and take care of the greenhouse.

"Pippi will take care of it, you don't have to worry about that." Snape's voice slowed down again, and Lily put down the book, showing a helpless expression, "Can I not go? I still want to go home."

"The Dark Lord is back, I've already met him." Snape finally decided to tell Lily part of the matter, so that Lily would be vigilant and take this matter seriously.

"What does that have to do with my going to the Order of the Phoenix?" Lily wanted to roll her eyes, but she held back, but her tone was not very good.

"It's safer there than Spider's End. You'll come back when school starts, and you'll only stay there for over a month." Snape slowed down his voice, "My current status is rather embarrassing, you just go."

Lily pursed her mouth and stopped talking. Just now she persuaded Draco that the vacation would end soon. She didn't expect to be comforted by others so soon. She actually knew that since they had already made up their minds, unless she sneaked away, Otherwise, just do what they say.

"Shusha, what do you think the Order of the Phoenix is?" At night, Lily lay on the bed and chatted with Shasha with her wand on.

"I really know something about this. It seems to be created by Dumbledore. As for the specific purpose, I don't know, Sha." Sha Sha curled up her tail and said, putting her pointed head on her body.

"Mysterious, these adults are really strange." Lily lifted the quilt a little, otherwise it would be too boring.

"I heard from him that you are going to the Order of the Phoenix? Sha?"

"Yes! I don't know where?"

"No matter where you are, I will accompany you. Don't worry, I will leave your safety to me, that's right, Sha!" In fact, Shasha felt that she was worried about Lily's safety when she heard Snape say that she was worried about Lily's safety when she was wearing the armband. Being underestimated, I was also famous in the magic world back then, okay?

"That's right, we can't be separated anyway." Lily felt that with Sasha and Miaomiao by her side, it was fine to go anywhere, but she nodded to Sasha's pointy head in a funny way when she said that it was protecting her, "Then I I will rely on you from now on, Mr. Shasha"

Shasha then raised the place where his chest should be, and Deser's tail swayed. Meow squinted at the side, looking at the swaying tail of the basilisk, and really wanted to go up and scratch it.

"silly dog!"

……

"Meow meow, don't you want to learn snake language anymore! Sha." Shasha stopped shaking her tail and said through gritted teeth.

"Lily teaches." Miaomiao's snake language has made great progress this semester. Although the facial muscles will become very strange when speaking snake language, but the daily expressions are almost the same, but they are generally words, not sentences. of.

The cross on Shasha's head was bolded, "ungrateful little milk cat."

"Lily?" Snape's voice sounded outside the door at this time, Lily quickly got out of the quilt and lay down, quickly turned off the light on the wand, pretending to be in a deep sleep.

Fortunately, Snape just called out to himself and there was no more to say. Lily gradually fell asleep after letting out a sigh of relief. Crouching down in the little nest on the other side of Lily's pillow, she also closed her eyes.

In the middle of the night, Lily opened her eyes red, and a green circle spread around Lily. Meow and Shaguai fell into a deep sleep when surrounded by the light circle, and slept on a small bed in the office Snape also fell into a deeper sleep.

Lily stepped out of bed lightly, and the bedroom door opened silently. Standing in front of Snape's bed, she raised Snape's left hand and rolled up his sleeve. Snape frowned.

Lily looked at the imprint that seemed to be alive, and after a long time, she restored everything to its original state and continued to lie back on the bed. The light green circle just now gradually retracted until it disappeared into Lily's quilt, and the two-color pupils of meow immediately Open it and look at Lily.
