[HP] Aunt of the Savior

The attitude of the Slytherins changed, however, after Snape took the lead in clapping his hands in what could be called a slouchy gesture.They were behaving like any other house—if Jody hadn't noticed the disdain and boredom still lingering on their faces.

Although Jody understood that they couldn't be too familiar and close in front of others at school, what Snape did still made her mouth twitch.

Jody quickly adapted to life at Hogwarts as a professor.She sent Hogwarts house elves to deliver meals to Harry on time every day and help him communicate with his friends and aunts. In the letter, Jody confirmed that Harry is now very comfortable: the Dursleys will never dare To mess with Harry, they always seemed to think that Jody was hiding in their cupboard, and worried that she might turn the family into toads, toads, at any moment in the night.

Harry also wrote a letter to Snape, but the content of the letter was about his understanding and questions about the "Fundamentals of Potions" he took back before school started.

Jody now finally understood how Snape had made himself so haggard.His work is really very busy - he has to be in charge of seven grades of potions, he has to approve the homework of seven grades, he has to keep researching to ensure his level of authority in the field of potions, and at the same time he has to fulfill his duty. Duties for the Head of Slytherin.Snape, with a strict personality, obviously couldn't push everything to the prefects like Slughorn.

Compared with Snape who was busy all day, Jody's work was much more leisurely.

At Hogwarts, there are very few students who take Muggle Studies as a course - even fewer than Divination, which is considered the most unreliable class in the whole school.After all, most girls are easy to become interested in illusory things like divination, but there are very limited people who are interested in studying Muggles. Among them, those Muggle-born wizards who are very familiar with Muggle life have to be removed.In fact most students thought it was silly to take Muggle Studies.Jody's students include those who have to get an OWLS certificate in Muggle Studies to get the job they want, and some students with extraordinary intellectual curiosity, such as a considerable number of Ravenclaws, and some students who choose Muggle Studies But I think this class sounds easy.

Jody felt that she had never liked Ravenclaw students so much, because they at least avoided the tragedy of being too lonely in her class.Students who took this course rated Professor Bubbaji very well, because she rarely assigns long dissertations.But that's because most of the students haven't noticed that Jody's short papers, if taken together, would be anything less than a twelve-inch paper.

But even so, Jody's workload is much less than Snape's, so after getting acquainted with her own courses, she often finds time to go to Snape's office to help him review those hilly papers, and occasionally together in his office Dinner and Supervise Snape's punctual bedtime.She'd been doing this since the holidays at Laurel Cottage, and the results were obvious, Snape looked much healthier than when Jody had just returned.

Jody seldom saw Snape doing anything other than work. He had no hobbies outside of work, nor was he keen on socializing.But when Jody walked into Snape's office one day, he found that he was reading a letter, and that letter was obviously a personal letter rather than the academic letters that Snape usually received.

The professor's letters were sorted by the elves and sent to their respective offices.Snape frowned and opened the envelope, glanced at it hastily, then threw the letter on the desk in disgust.

Jody walked to the desk curiously and picked up the envelope, which was signed with a beautiful but rigid R·A·B in the place of the sender. "It's from Regulus?"

Regulus barely recovered his health half a year after Jody left England, but it was only a recovery.The double toxin had seriously eroded his body, making him unable to use magic for a long time, and he could not even summon the faithful house-elf Kreacher.This situation made Regulus quite depressed. He didn't want to go back to the old house of the Black family immediately, and he was a "dead" person in name, so he temporarily borrowed and lived in the remote Spider's End Alley. .It wasn't until the past two years that his magic power gradually began to recover.It was during the summer vacation at Laurel Cottage that Jody learned that there was such a tenant living in Spinner's End.

Jody thought that the time spent together was enough for Snape and Regulus to become friends who could trust each other completely, otherwise Snape would never have allowed Regulus to live in his house for so many years.And in Jody's opinion, being friends with Regulus is much better than being friends with Lucius Malfoy.But the expression on Snape's face when he received this letter was not the one he should have been on when he received a letter from a friend.

"No, actually not." Snape re-corrected a little irritably: "Not all." He simply handed the letter to Jody. "You see……"

The top note was actually an invitation to Snape and Jody to visit the Blacks at the Blacks' house in Godric's Hollow.Both the envelope and the invitation were written by Regulus, but the other piece of paper besides the invitation was written by Sirius.And this letter was obviously written to Jody, and the letter focused on asking whether his gifts had been handed over to Harry, and whether Harry liked those gifts.

"Oh, Sirius is back too?" Jody raised his eyebrows.She sort of understood the reasons for Snape's irritation now, but she still tried to act as nonchalant as possible, even though she was annoyed now.

——Sirius deliberately put the letter to Jody in the invitation letter to Snape, the purpose of wanting to annoy Snape is self-evident.

Snape exhaled angrily.He was very upset that Jody had been keeping in touch with Sirius without telling him.Snape had always seen Sirius as his greatest "rival", from the beginning when he didn't even understand his feelings for Jody.Then he clearly saw James Potter's bad ideas, and this mentality intensified.Even though later Snape knew very well that this kind of meaningless comparison mentality was completely instigated by Lucius at first, but after the fuchsia thing happened, this mentality has become a knot in his life, and it will never be possible relieved.

Even ten years after leaving Hogwarts, Sirius Black still knew how to piss off Severus Snape as quickly as he had at school.

"You never told me." Snape scowled, glaring at Jody.

"Because I don't want you to be upset about some boring guy - like now. I need to contact Sirius for many reasons, the most important of which is that I need to understand the dynamics of the Aurors who are hunting him, so I can deduce The situation that I may encounter. You know, there are only a few Aurors in the entire Ministry of Magic, and they have tried to catch too many people over the years. I can neither let them give up hunting me, nor let them catch me."

After the unpleasant conversation just after their reunion, Jody rarely talked about her escape experience in the past seven years.Hearing these words, Snape frowned even tighter.

"Okay, Severus." Jody kissed Snape reassuringly before he could speak. "I know you don't want to see Sirius. But I think we have to go—for a reason that only the two of us know, I may need Brother Black's help. And, I don't think Regulus will be there for nothing. invited us."

Jody's guess was correct, Regulus invited Jody and Snape mainly to express his gratitude.When his magic powers were officially restored and he and Sirius finally made up, he thought it necessary to invite them to celebrate, and he also wanted to know how the Dark Lord was doing.It's just that he didn't expect Sirius to include another piece of letter paper in that letter.

Sirius' return was rather sudden and adventurous.You know, the Ministry of Magic's efforts to capture Sirius are much greater than the capture of Jody-although Shaker and Moody have provided Sirius with a lot of cover, they cannot control all Aurors and the entire world after all. Magical Law Enforcement Squad.Moreover, the Ministry of Magic even notified the Muggle government of the arrest of Sirius, completely ignoring Dumbledore's objections.

Under such circumstances, since returning to England, Sirius has maintained his Animagus image, and has hardly dared to become a human.Along the way, he has to subsist on rummaging through bins and the occasional food people throw to stray dogs.

Sirius' destination was 12 Grimmauld Place—even though Sirius' name was burned out in the family tree, the mansion still recognized Sirius as a Black.He avoided his mother, Walburga, and quietly tried to get the truth out of Kreacher.Fortunately, Regulus had recovered his magic power and summoned Kreacher. Unable to disobey his master's order, Kreacher told Regulus about Sirius, and finally allowed the Black brothers to meet again.

"So, you're reconciled?"

After listening to the experiences of Sirius and Regulus, Jody looked at Sirius who was hugging his younger brother's shoulders in high spirits, with an indescribable sadness and envy in his heart.

"We decided to live here for a while." Sirius said, "As long as I don't leave here, those Aurors won't be able to find me so easily."

As the eldest son of the Black family who used to live a stable life and had no worries about food and clothing, Sirius was thinner than Snape after years of fleeing. Although he has taken care of his appearance, his body cannot Then quickly return to the past state.

"I never thought that Sirius would be willing to return to Grimmauld Place." Regulus pondered for a while before replying tactfully.

He didn't say outright that he had forgiven Sirius, nor did he whine or complain about things Sirius had done in the past.But Jody and Snape had fully understood all the meaning of his words.The proud and stubborn Sirius was able to endure so much hardship and take such a big risk to return to the UK, and even to return to the old house of Black that he never wanted to go back for his younger brother. Why don't you let it go?His brother loved him as he had always loved his brother.

Sirius obviously didn't like this way of expression, but he watched Regulus squint his eyes, and finally said nothing, and turned to Jody and asked about Harry: "Jody, has Harry been in these years?" How are you doing?"

"I think he's going to be fine now and in the future." Jody frowned.

Sirius was once again agitated by this expression: "So, Harry didn't have a good life before?"

"Those Muggles hate him."

"How dare they!" Sirius thumped the armrest of the sofa angrily. "I'm going to warn them..."

"If you remember your situation in your mind, you shouldn't be at the Dursleys - they'll call the police as soon as they see you, I didn't know you were so eager to try Azkaban taste?"

"Jody..." Sirius looked at Jody with a helpless look. "Do you ever feel..."

Thinking that Jody had saved Regulus' life, and considering his dead friend and his godson, Sirius lost the confidence to argue with Jody.The Slytherins he disliked did a lot of things that he admired, even though he didn't want to admit his mistakes, but he didn't have as much confidence in arguing with the other party in his heart as before.

"Oh, I think Sirius meant that he thinks you and Severus are more alike now." But Regulus calmly added what Sirius had said.Although he was very happy to reconcile with Sirius, and he didn't want to worry about the past, but he was still very dissatisfied with Sirius' intentionally inserting the letter into his letter to Snape.

Seeing Sirius' embarrassed expression, Snape pursed his lips in satisfaction.

"So, now that you're back in England, have you found the Dark Lord and wiped him out?" Regulus asked.

"I failed to completely destroy Voldemort..."

"Oh, Rael, you can call him Voldemort too, don't run away from it," Sirius said.

"That man's horror is beyond your imagination, Sirius." Regulus glanced at Jody in admiration, then turned his head and said to Sirius.Compared with Sirius, he admired Jody, who had witnessed Voldemort's power, for being able to call Voldemort by his first name.

"Although he left a lot of traces, unfortunately, I did not find Voldemort." Jody continued. She did not hide her discoveries over the years from Brother Black, but she did not say her purpose of finding Voldemort Not to completely destroy Voldemort but to continue to gain his trust.

"Obviously that guy Voldemort is like a s... more cunning than a normal snake." Sirius shrugged.After finally reconciling with Regulus, he might not be able to criticize Slytherin openly in a short time.

"Actually, there's one more thing I'd like to ask you for, Regulus." Jody took the opportunity to say, "I want to know about the history of the Elder Wand. About Voldemort's wand—you know what happened after he disappeared. There was also a wand missing, and I thought that the wand might have very special and powerful powers. It might be..."

After achieving their goal and enjoying another lunch carefully prepared by Kreacher, Jody and Snape were ready to say goodbye.

"I'll see you off." Regulus stood up.

To everyone's surprise, Sirius and Regulus sent Jody and Snape to the entrance.

"By the way, can I... can I go and see Harry?" Sirius asked a little nervously, it was obvious that he had been holding back this question for a long time. "I'm just going to see, in Animagus form."

Jody and Snape exchanged a look.They were surprised that Sirius would consult them before acting.Seven years of fleeing life obviously made this man who used to make decisions only on impulse become a little more mature.

Just a little bit.Snape gritted his teeth, thinking about the letter that had been intentionally sent to him along with the invitation.It was very rare for him to be able to keep silent during the time he was here as a guest.
