[HP] When a son dresses up as an old man
Chapter 36 James Disappears
Snape hated Borg completely, and he could ignore Borg dominating Nestlé and depriving him of his status as Prince heir, but he couldn't forgive Borg for plotting against him behind his back and hindering his path of revenge.As for James, although the crisis caused by his recklessness was resolved by his oolong coping strategy, Snape still gave him seven days' worth of vomiting potion, and the days ahead will be miserable.
Lupine's injury recovered, and the Order of the Phoenix began to investigate who sent him to kill him that day. Snape was also looking into that, and he never liked having uncertainty around him.The guy who assassinated Lupine wasn't Voldemort's man, so who could it be?
The only person investigating Lupin at that time was Lucias, and if it wasn't him, it must have been someone who had been involved in the operation before.Why do you do this?what purpose?
Under Voldemort's instruction, Snape had an extra subordinate, Regulus Black. Given the existence of Sirius, Snape didn't have any special affection for this young man.And something told Snape that this man wasn't as harmless as he appeared.
That day Snape led his men to siege the home of a member of the Order of the Phoenix. It was a small noble family from Gryffindor, and Regulus followed behind him. Snape was used to this kind of blood licking now, and he was afraid of killing people at first, but now he has no feeling.
"James Potter is also a noble family of Gryffindor."
After Avada's green light passed, Snape suddenly heard Regulus say these words from the side. Snape felt slightly suspicious inside, and the face hidden under the mask raised an eyebrow.
"Many people think so, but it's not true." Snape said coldly, the Potter family has a long history, how could it be possible that all family members were born in Gryffindor for hundreds of years.
"The composition of the Potter family is very complicated. There are also family members from Slytherin or other colleges, and not only from Hogwarts, but also from Durmstrang." However, in recent decades, most of the members of Gryffindor That's all.James Potter himself is a very typical example. Of course, Snape refers to the current James Potter. He has the bravery of Gryffindor, the loyalty of Hufflepuff, the intelligence of Ravenclaw, and the talent of Slytherin. Perhaps such a talent is worthy of being called ancient. A member of the Potter family.So that... Snape thought disdainfully, not even the old butler of the Potter family.
"No wonder he's so cunning." Regulus said suddenly, he knew that James had saved Lupin from life, and he could still be saved after being hit by Avada, it's really embarrassing!He had checked a lot about the Potter family recently, and sometimes Regulus hated James Potter inexplicably, and it was the appearance of this person who completely snatched away his brother. Regulus was very jealous of James and would have been better off without him.
Snape didn't ignore the fierce look in Regulus' eyes, this boy was not as innocent and harmless as he seemed.
"The Potter family has many branches. James Potter is the most orthodox heir, and he himself is an excellent leader. Unlike other families that are divided and intrigue, the Potter family is very united, and the various families are closely connected. The disciples exceed There are thousands of people, and they are related to the magician army, otherwise the Lord would not be so afraid of him." It is precisely because of the influence behind James that Voldemort can only assassinate, and cannot openly oppose James.
After the mission was over, Snape uncharacteristically invited Regulus to his home in Spider's End, and Regulus naturally couldn't refuse.
A cup of green liquid was placed in a beaker and placed on the coffee table in front of Regulus.
"Sorry, I don't have an ordinary cup at home. This is juice, not potion, you can drink it with confidence."
"Thank you."
Snape sat across from Regulus, and his instinct told him that there was something wrong with the boy in front of him, so he decided to start probing.
Looking at the somewhat gloomy Regulus, Snape suddenly thought that he also seemed to be involved in the hunt for Sirius before.Suddenly, he recalled a sentence that James once said to him, very strange words, James said that Regulus of Sirius admired Sirius very much, even more than he admired Voldemort, and at the critical moment Regulus might betray Voldemort because of Sirius.
This was mentioned by James a long time ago when he was chatting with him, and he forgot it when he heard it at the time, but when he thinks about it now, it is full of different colors.
"Let's talk about your brother." Snape picked up a copy of today's Daily Prophet and read it calmly.
"Recently Lucius has been complaining to me, saying that Sirius has gone somewhere to hide, making him one head and two big."
"My brother is very smart, but he didn't fit in with his family since he was a child. Later, he joined Gryffindor and even became a member of the Order of the Phoenix. I think that's all I can say." Regulus said calmly. It was Ni Lin in his heart.
"He doesn't have a good relationship with his family. I've heard that. After all, I was his schoolmate for seven years." Snape turned a page of the newspaper.
"However, I seem to have heard someone mention something different. The relationship between Sirius and you is actually pretty good."
Regulus couldn't help tightening his hand when he heard the words, Snape took a panoramic view of these small movements, and sighed in his heart, after all, he was still too young, and the fire wasn't ready yet.
"Where, it's too late for my brother to hate me." Regulus said in a self-deprecating way, and what he said was indeed true.
"You know this guy, Remus Lupine?" Snape continued.
"I've heard of it." Regulus lowered his head, the candlelight casting a shadow on his face.
"He is an important clue to Sirius, but recently someone got news that Lupine was assassinated and almost died. This incident not only angered the Order of the Phoenix, but also made it very difficult for Lucius. After all, one less clue means less hope. ,Am I right?"
Regulus' heart was beating like a drum at this moment, why did Snape say these things to him, just chatting, or pointing something?The man in black in front of him was really scary, he kept thinking like this.Did he know what he had done?Would he tell Voldemort?Thinking of this, Regulus became even more uneasy, and for a moment he even felt murderous towards Snape.
Seeing Regulus' silence for a long time, Snape knew that he probably guessed right!It was the person in front of him who made an oolong, which almost exposed him that day. According to Snape's analysis, Regulus had a clear goal, and his methods could be called simple and ruthless, and he did it very cleanly. Lucias hadn't discovered the reason until now.If it wasn't for the relationship between Snape and James, he wouldn't have guessed Regulus so easily this time.
"Son, since the Lord entrusted you to me, now I am your mentor in life. You are still too young, you need to use more brains and less hands, and think about the consequences before doing things, understand?" Snape looked like Inadvertently said.
Regulus froze, what did Snape mean?Isn't he going to inform?Or was it just a boring trial just now?
"Thank you Mr. Snape for teaching." Regulus thought carefully about what Snape had said to him.
In a sense, Regulus made Snape see himself three years ago. Although his qualifications were a little weak, he could still become a talent if he cultivated well.Besides, according to what James said, Regulus was indeed likely to be turned against him. Just because of his obsession with his brother, Snape was sure to take the boy for his own use.
Time was running out before Voldemort could make a necklace of Horcruxes, and Regulus would steal the Horcruxes and die, as James had told him earlier, and Snape didn't want the child to make useless sacrifices either.Moreover, this kid has good aptitude, ruthless enough, and smart enough, but what he has is only experience and the correct way of thinking.
Sometimes things often go round and round and return to the original point. Ever since Albus said last time that Hogwarts was going to recruit prophecy teachers, James has been paying attention to the progress of things.In his heart, James was expecting a savior to appear... But James didn't expect it, but he didn't expect that Trelawney actually predicted it, and Voldemort knew about it.
"Prophecy?" Snape suppressed the surprise in his heart, maintaining a slightly puzzled but calm face.
"Yes." Voldemort rarely frowned, showing his displeasure.
"Lord, what prophecy worries you so much?" Snape asked calmly.
"About my downfall..." Voldemort looked at Snape, then smiled, very coldly.
"Why, are you interested?"
Snape quickly knelt down.
"The Lord is invincible, maybe it's an alarming conspiracy by the Order of the Phoenix." Snape didn't know if he was agreeing with Voldemort or not, but that was all he could say.
"Is it alarmist talk..." Voldemort said in a neutral tone.
"This subordinate has made a slip of the tongue." At this point, Snape couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.As he expected, although Voldemort might not believe any prophecy, the news has spread, and the Order of the Phoenix even used this news as a reason to suppress Voldemort's momentum, causing panic among the Death Eaters... Regardless of whether the prophecy was true or false, Voldemort had to make a gesture.
Snape was curious about the content of the prophecy, but he also knew that now was not the time to ask.
"James Potter, have you made any progress?" It was obvious that he was angry, but Voldemort had an intuition that this damn prophecy would not be possible without the additions of the Order of the Phoenix and James.
"The assassination operation is still going on, but his ability is very powerful, and our people can hardly get within 100 meters of him. But there is still some progress. Recently, his subordinates successfully captured the Potter family's manor in Romania and captured some of the Potter family. member." Snape had figured it out a long time ago that it would be useless for Lucius to do nothing with James, and it would be a big mistake for him to do nothing, so he had to do something.
Voldemort was very happy when he heard that, after all, Lucius had never plucked half a hair from Potter's iron cock before, and that guy was very cunning, and he seemed to be able to escape unscathed every time.
"Very well, you continue to deal with Potter's affairs. The Order of the Phoenix basically relies on donations from the Potter family. If the Potter family collapses, the Order of the Phoenix will suffer greatly."
"Yes, my subordinates obey."
Snape backed out, heading straight from the Floo to his home in Spider's End.I don't know why, but he is always a little restless today.He suddenly wanted to see James, maybe ask what the hell the prophecy was all about.It wasn't until he almost blew up his own cauldron that he calmed down a little.
James was always coming for him, wasn't he...that guy was always showing up in his bedroom without warning.
At this moment, James is also at a loss! Trelawney wasn't there the day he made the prophecy, so what was the prophecy about?Why would Voldemort know?He didn't know anything about these things, so he could only find out by asking Albus.
"I said a long time ago that you really should apply for the post of teacher of prophecy at Hogwarts." Albus had a regretful expression on his face.
"You know, if the comparison is Trelawney, there is no doubt that I admire you more."
"Albus, if I can only be compared with Trelawney, please give me the Avada Kedavra right now." James was in no mood to tease Albus anymore.
"What did that Trelawney woman say again this time?"
"You want me to repeat what you almost figured out?" Albus was also surprised by this, and he almost suspected that Trelawney's prediction was that a blind cat met a dead mouse.
"You should pay attention to those children born in July." James said, only this time there would be no Harry Potter.But without Harry Potter someone else would be the savior.Perhaps, only the savior is the constant theme, and it doesn't matter whether the savior is Harry or not.Harry, who had lost the aura of the savior, was finally just Harry now.
"James, you know, Lily's due date is approaching." Albus didn't want to emphasize this on purpose, but...
"Merlin...don't tell me it's July." James frowned.
"I'm already Sirius' secret keeper, I can't be Lily's anymore!" He is a human being, not a god.
"James, you're too nervous. It's not necessarily that child, is it? The Longbottom family's baby will be born in July. You should sit down, drink a cup of pumpkin juice, and calm down."
"Forget it, I have something else to do, so I'm leaving first." James waved his hand, picked up his coat...
Until a long time later, Albus thought that if he insisted on keeping James to drink another glass of pumpkin juice that day.Because that day was the last time he saw James...
"Fabilus..." Snape repeated the unfamiliar name, maintaining a cold mask in front of his subordinates.He couldn't show his flaws, although only the sound of his own heartbeat was left in his ears.
"Yes, Mr. Snape, that guy is a dark wizard who escaped from Russia to Europe, and he seemed to have had some trouble with Potter before."
Snape's eyes were like a deep well, no one could see what he was thinking.
"I don't remember ever ordering him to act without authorization, sneak up on Potter." Snape's tone was still calm and gorgeous.
"That guy has always been a loner, and he often acts privately like this." The speaker hesitated.
"When we arrived, the scene had been destroyed by black magic. We only found some human body fragments, which could prove to be Fabilus's, and some other people's. They were all mixed together, and they couldn't be distinguished."
Voices echoed in Snape's ears.
'Let me see what spell this time? '
'Oh, torn apart?Glad your hands and feet are still there, I wonder how they didn't get blown off? '
"The so-called 'some other people', who exactly?" Snape asked.
"I don't know, it might be Potter's. At least a dozen people were killed at the scene, some were Muggles, some were wizards. When we arrived, the Order of the Phoenix and the Ministry of Magic had also received The news is out, so we can only conduct some preliminary investigations and leave as soon as possible."
'If I hadn't had the portkey, I'd be doomed this time. '
'It's the portkey again, you better not let anyone find out that your damned portkey is taking you straight to my bedroom. '
"Really... So, Fabilus is really our hero."
Hearing what Snape said, the people below breathed a sigh of relief.
"I'm so glad to hear this news, to give Fabilus a good funeral. I will report this to the Lord as soon as possible, and each of you will have a reward."
"Thank you Mr. Snape for the promotion!" Everyone seemed excited.
"Forgive me, I still have to make a new potion for the Lord, so excuse me."
Snape didn't know how he got home, he opened the bedroom door, there was silence, no sign of anyone coming. Snape had no expression on his face, just sat quietly on the head of the bed, from day to night, and from night to dawn.He sat there without moving a finger.It seems to be contemplating, and it seems to be waiting, waiting for someone to suddenly fall from the sky and say 'Hi, Sev, long time no see'...
After a sleepless night, Snape checked the time. It was time for him to deliver the potion to Voldemort. Snape stood up, washed his face, and took a rare potion to make himself look better.
Finally, he stood in front of the potion cabinet for a long time, picked up a bottle of potion placed in a special place, looked at the bottle, put it in his pocket without much hesitation, and left the spider tail alley.
"Lord, how do you feel today?"
Voldemort drank the potion and was resting with his eyes closed when he heard Snape ask.
"My body feels better and better, and it's all thanks to you." Voldemort said, feeling refreshed, which is a good thing.
"Lord, I have something that will definitely make you more happy." Snape's flat voice was like a cello, gorgeous and deep.
Voldemort opened his eyes and looked at Snape.
"You look very good today. Is there anything happy about it?" Most of the time, Voldemort saw Snape with thick dark circles under his eyes, and his complexion was as pale as gray walls. It was obvious that today was very different. Snape aroused his curiosity.
"Lord, I launched a special operation against James Potter yesterday, and it worked out well," Snape said.
"Continue." Voldemort became more interested when he heard James Potter's name.
"Yesterday, the people under me who were responsible for assassinating Potter got the whereabouts of Potter. He seems to often hide in the Muggle world. Fabilus under me had a fierce black magic battle with him in the Muggle world. At the same time, some of our members were exposed, but we severely hit the Order of the Phoenix, and James seems to be missing. The scene was bloody and bloody, and we were able to distinguish some body parts. After analysis by subordinates, maybe James was among them."
This was undoubtedly a pleasant surprise for Voldemort, he never expected that Snape would help him deal with Potter so quickly.The funny thing is, even Snape himself would never have thought of...
"This is good news." Voldemort stood up, eyes shining, and slowly paced around the room.
"Severus, you always have a way to surprise me. Whether it's your potion talent or your efficiency, I'm extremely satisfied." When Voldemort taught Snape the task of dealing with James, he didn't know what to do. He didn't expect Snape to completely abandon the past feelings and kill James, but he didn't expect that Snape was much more ruthless than he imagined. Maybe, he never really saw Snape clearly.
"Lord, although James has disappeared, the Potter family is still the Potter family. We should take advantage of the victory and pursue it, and recover the territory of the Potter family as soon as possible before they have time to breathe." Snape said so calmly that there was no trace of emotion at all.
"You're right!" Voldemort nodded, getting rid of James was only the first step in his annexation of the Potter family.
"Lord, please leave this matter to your subordinates. James likes to use Muggle methods to manage his territory and family business, and this subordinate also lived in the Muggle world in his early years, so he is very familiar with his work style. I think I am more suitable for this task than anyone else." As if knowing that Voldemort preferred Lucius in this matter, Snape made such a rare request.
Sure enough, Voldemort showed some deep expressions, as if wondering why Snape was so active about Potter's matter?Or maybe Snape was arguing with Lucius about something?
"Son, you're starting to get ambitious." It was the first time Voldemort saw 'aggression' in Snape's eyes.What, broke the chains that held Snape's inner beast prisoner?
"Alright, I'll leave it to you to take full responsibility for the Potter family affairs," Voldemort said.
"Severus, remember what you're doing and don't disappoint me."
Lupine's injury recovered, and the Order of the Phoenix began to investigate who sent him to kill him that day. Snape was also looking into that, and he never liked having uncertainty around him.The guy who assassinated Lupine wasn't Voldemort's man, so who could it be?
The only person investigating Lupin at that time was Lucias, and if it wasn't him, it must have been someone who had been involved in the operation before.Why do you do this?what purpose?

"Yes, my subordinates obey."

James said, only this time there would be no Harry Potter.But without Harry Potter someone else would be the savior.Perhaps, only the savior is the constant theme, and it doesn't matter whether the savior is Harry or not.Harry, who had lost the aura of the savior, was finally just Harry now.
"James, you know, Lily's due date is approaching." Albus didn't want to emphasize this on purpose, but...
"Merlin...don't tell me it's July." James frowned.
"I'm already Sirius' secret keeper, I can't be Lily's anymore!" He is a human being, not a god.
"James, you're too nervous. It's not necessarily that child, is it? The Longbottom family's baby will be born in July. You should sit down, drink a cup of pumpkin juice, and calm down."

"Fabilus..." Snape repeated the unfamiliar name, maintaining a cold mask in front of his subordinates.He couldn't show his flaws, although only the sound of his own heartbeat was left in his ears.
"Yes, Mr. Snape, that guy is a dark wizard who escaped from Russia to Europe, and he seemed to have had some trouble with Potter before."

'If I hadn't had the portkey, I'd be doomed this time. '
'It's the portkey again, you better not let anyone find out that your damned portkey is taking you straight to my bedroom. '
"Really... So, Fabilus is really our hero."
Hearing what Snape said, the people below breathed a sigh of relief.
"I'm so glad to hear this news, to give Fabilus a good funeral. I will report this to the Lord as soon as possible, and each of you will have a reward."

Snape didn't know how he got home, he opened the bedroom door, there was silence, no sign of anyone coming. Snape had no expression on his face, just sat quietly on the head of the bed, from day to night, and from night to dawn.He sat there without moving a finger.It seems to be contemplating, and it seems to be waiting, waiting for someone to suddenly fall from the sky and say 'Hi, Sev, long time no see'...
After a sleepless night, Snape checked the time. It was time for him to deliver the potion to Voldemort. Snape stood up, washed his face, and took a rare potion to make himself look better.
Finally, he stood in front of the potion cabinet for a long time, picked up a bottle of potion placed in a special place, looked at the bottle, put it in his pocket without much hesitation, and left the spider tail alley.
"Lord, how do you feel today?"
Voldemort drank the potion and was resting with his eyes closed when he heard Snape ask.
"My body feels better and better, and it's all thanks to you." Voldemort said, feeling refreshed, which is a good thing.
"Lord, I have something that will definitely make you more happy." Snape's flat voice was like a cello, gorgeous and deep.
Voldemort opened his eyes and looked at Snape.
"You look very good today. Is there anything happy about it?" Most of the time, Voldemort saw Snape with thick dark circles under his eyes, and his complexion was as pale as gray walls. It was obvious that today was very different. Snape aroused his curiosity.
"Lord, I launched a special operation against James Potter yesterday, and it worked out well," Snape said.
"Continue." Voldemort became more interested when he heard James Potter's name.
"Yesterday, the people under me who were responsible for assassinating Potter got the whereabouts of Potter. He seems to often hide in the Muggle world. Fabilus under me had a fierce black magic battle with him in the Muggle world. At the same time, some of our members were exposed, but we severely hit the Order of the Phoenix, and James seems to be missing. The scene was bloody and bloody, and we were able to distinguish some body parts. After analysis by subordinates, maybe James was among them."
This was undoubtedly a pleasant surprise for Voldemort, he never expected that Snape would help him deal with Potter so quickly.The funny thing is, even Snape himself would never have thought of...
"This is good news." Voldemort stood up, eyes shining, and slowly paced around the room.
"Severus, you always have a way to surprise me. Whether it's your potion talent or your efficiency, I'm extremely satisfied." When Voldemort taught Snape the task of dealing with James, he didn't know what to do. He didn't expect Snape to completely abandon the past feelings and kill James, but he didn't expect that Snape was much more ruthless than he imagined. Maybe, he never really saw Snape clearly.
"Lord, although James has disappeared, the Potter family is still the Potter family. We should take advantage of the victory and pursue it, and recover the territory of the Potter family as soon as possible before they have time to breathe." Snape said so calmly that there was no trace of emotion at all.
"You're right!" Voldemort nodded, getting rid of James was only the first step in his annexation of the Potter family.
"Lord, please leave this matter to your subordinates. James likes to use Muggle methods to manage his territory and family business, and this subordinate also lived in the Muggle world in his early years, so he is very familiar with his work style. I think I am more suitable for this task than anyone else." As if knowing that Voldemort preferred Lucius in this matter, Snape made such a rare request.
Sure enough, Voldemort showed some deep expressions, as if wondering why Snape was so active about Potter's matter?Or maybe Snape was arguing with Lucius about something?
"Son, you're starting to get ambitious." It was the first time Voldemort saw 'aggression' in Snape's eyes.What, broke the chains that held Snape's inner beast prisoner?
"Alright, I'll leave it to you to take full responsibility for the Potter family affairs," Voldemort said.
"Severus, remember what you're doing and don't disappoint me."
