Chapter 35
matter.In his opinion, it is enough to teach Neil that potion. Although that potion is far from enough for Black's body, other potions are out of the scope of what Neil can learn now in his opinion.It is impossible for him to teach Neil more knowledge than he can handle just for the sake of Black's body.In his opinion, it was even more impossible to help him by brewing the potion himself.Blake himself doesn't care about his body, he doesn't care about his health when he gets out of prison, insists on going home instead of going to St. Mungo's to recuperate his body, then he is already busy with his affairs, why bother with someone who has nothing to do with him.
"Black's body needs long-term conditioning in St. Mungo's. It will take at least three months before he can barely return to normal. He has been in Azkaban for more than ten years, and his soul has been damaged." Black's question It's not caused by the body, but in the wizarding world, problems with the soul have always been the most difficult to treat.
"Barely back to normal?" Neil frowned as he repeated the information revealed in Severus' words. "Why can I only say reluctantly?"
Putting the potion bottle back in the medicine cabinet, Severus turned his head absently. "At this stage, there is no potion that can completely cure the sequelae of dementors." Severus said in his heart, telling himself that he just happened to see a dementor, so he had a sudden whim to spend time researching a complete cure for dementors. The potion of ghost aftereffect.However, due to unsatisfactory progress, his current research has not produced breakthrough results.
Misunderstood the information contained in Severus' words, Neil stopped speaking, thinking about it...

Time jumped to the eve of the start of school.As the school day drew closer, Sirius' mood became more and more depressed day by day.
On this day, Sirius pestered Neil again, wanting to go to school with him when school started. "Neil, why don't you take me there when school starts, okay?" Sirius turned into a big black dog again as he twisted his body beside Neil, lying on Neil's lap and rubbing his head.Harry on the side laughed and collapsed on the sofa, the corners of his mouth twitching.
Neil gently stroked Sirius' fur and rubbed his big furry head. "But you know, each person is only allowed to bring one pet in the school." Neil pointed to Jedda who was squatting aside, staring at Sirius. "What if I take you there, Jeda?"
After hearing Neil's words, Sirius turned into a human again, looking at Neil pitifully with a bitter face.
Neil was softened by Sirius' expression and had to surrender. "How about this, if you can convince your father to let him take you to school, I won't object, okay?" Suddenly, Neil thought of a way to retreat and kill two birds with one stone.If his father disagrees with Sirius, then he has nothing to do; if his father agrees, then everyone will be happy, and at the same time, the relationship between the two of them will be deepened.The most important thing is that in this way, he can further find a way to get his father to treat his father.And, no matter what, it was impossible for him to leave Yeda, who had been with him for so long, alone at home.
Sirius was dumbfounded after hearing Neil's words.It took a long time for Sirius to come back to his senses, and said bitterly: "I will definitely let Snape agree!" Sirius stood up with his hands on his hips, cheering for himself without confidence.
Harry on the side looked at Neil with admiration.In the past two days, he has been tortured by Sirius to the point of being overwhelmed, and he is about to cede the land for compensation.Although he felt sorry for Sirius staying at home alone, the school stipulated that each person could only bring one pet. He really had no way to ignore Hedwig and take Sirius to school instead.What's more, Harry also felt that Sirius should have his own life, instead of just spinning around himself and Neil all day long.After all, he has now restored his reputation and is free to walk the wizarding world.Unexpectedly, what seemed to him a huge problem was resolved lightly by Neil with a few words.In Harry's mind, of course, the possibility of Sirius' success never even occurred to him.Winking at Neil, Harry grinned sarcastically.This idea is absolutely perfect!
Seeing Harry's overjoyed expression, Neil raised his eyebrows.He wasn't as optimistic as Harry.Whether father can convince father or not is hard for anyone to say...
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&Dividing line&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
Doing what he thought, Sirius directly let Neil and Harry play at home, and Apparated to Snape's door by himself.
Ringing the doorbell, Sirius grimaced and grumbled.This Snape is simply too hateful!He actually blocked his ability to use the fireplace to go to his house without making a sound. If he hadn't been bounced back by the fireplace just now, he wouldn't have discovered this.It's just too cunning!At this moment, Sirius was filled with resentment.
After waiting for a long time, the door of Snape's house opened slowly.
"I don't know why Blake, who is busy with everything, is going to come to the door?" Leaning on the door, Severus showed a smirk, deliberately using words to tease Sirius who had nothing to do during the day.It was one thing for him not to pick on Black, but Black came after him, and Severus wasn't going to fight back.
Pushing Severus' hand away, Sirius cheekily squeezed his way into the room.Confidently blocking it, Severus let go, acquiescing to Sirius stepping into his territory.
Sitting on the sofa, Sirius stretched lazily before explaining his purpose. "Snape, can I become your pet and go to school with you after school starts?" Sirius had a flattering attitude when he asked for help. "Don't worry, I won't bother you when I get to school."
Frowning, Severus knew that nothing good would happen when Sirius came.Without even thinking about it, Severus refused directly. "I don't know if Mr. Black overestimates his charm, but I don't seem to have the obligation to be at your disposal."
Sirius narrowed his eyes slyly. "Hey." Sirius covered his head. "I'm really out of energy during this time, and I don't know if when I saw Neil, I would accidentally say something that shouldn't be said..." Knowing that being soft would not have any effect, Sirius directly threatened.
"You!" Severus was really angry, staring at Sirius.Sirius couldn't bear to show weakness, and stared back.After a long time, Severus surrendered. "But Dumbledore knows your Animagus, he won't agree." Severus who said this was actually showing weakness.Although he didn't want to bring such an oil bottle, but no matter what, Severus really didn't dare to bet that if he didn't agree, would Sirius really put all his eggs in one basket and tell Neal what he had forced him to do back then? .This is his weakness, he doesn't want to see Neil's disappointed eyes.Besides... Sirius' body should also be adjusted systematically...
Knowing that Severus had acquiesced, Sirius nodded triumphantly. "You don't need to worry about this, I have a way to convince Albus." He could see that Albus felt a certain amount of guilt towards himself after being imprisoned innocently for so long.He entered Hogwarts on the grounds that he wanted Madam Pomfrey to recuperate his body, and at the same time, he took the initiative to find ways to cover up his usual whereabouts. With Dumbledore's tolerant personality, he probably would not refuse his request.
Severus was silent for a while after listening to Sirius' words. "If you can get Albus' acquiescence..." Sirius' request was agreed.
"Thanks, Snape." Sirius thanked triumphantly, ready to leave happily. "I'll go back and tell Neil right now." After thinking about it, Sirius disappeared in place.
Looking at the living room which became empty again, Severus gave a wry smile...
Back at Black's old house again, Sirius triumphantly told Harry and Neil that Severus had agreed to take him to school as a pet.Harry's jaw dropped in shock, his eyes bulging in disbelief. "No way? Professor Snape would agree? How is that possible?"
Neil smiled and said nothing, but was not too surprised by this result.After touching Bruno's head, Neil said softly, "In that case, I will take good care of you when we get to school." Although he didn't say it clearly, Neil was still slightly moved.He understood that the reason why Sirius made a fuss about going to school was entirely to cling to himself.Gently resting his head on Black's big dog's head, Neil turned his head slightly to look at Harry. "After school starts, you have one week, and I have one week?" Neil said, pointing to Bruno who squinted comfortably.
Harry squeezed over with a smile, put his arms around half of Bruno's body, and nodded. "good."
☆, start of school
On the first day of school, Neil was sent to King's Cross by Severus early as usual.Entering Platform Nine and Three Quarters, Neil unexpectedly met Dylan who hadn't contacted him during the summer vacation.
"Neil." Seeing Neil, Dylan walked up to greet him reservedly.Although there was a smile on his face, Ke Neil could still see a touch of unnaturalness on Dylan's face.
"Dylan." Neil also nodded expressionlessly.Neil is very clear about the reason why Dylan is facing unnaturalness.Anyone who performed the best throughout the year, but was surpassed by the last few in the grade at the end of the semester, it is impossible to have no thoughts at all, even if that person can barely be called his friend.Besides, this incident still happened in a place like Slytherin, where the power is the first, and others can stand aside.Since Neil chose this way to express himself, he naturally expected Dylan's possible reaction.In his opinion, Dylan can still keep calm, and he has performed very well without questioning him.
"Neil, come, let me introduce you. This is my sister, Pansy Parkinson." Only then did Neil notice a girl following Dylan.Neil had seen this girl before, she was on the same level as Draco, and the relationship seemed to be pretty good.
Neil was a little puzzled, but he still greeted him without changing his face. "Hello, Miss Parkinson." He couldn't understand why Dylan not only didn't show the slightest sign of anger, but also introduced his sister to him.
It has to be said that Neil's understanding of pure-blood families comes mostly from books, and here, he got a little confused.Although Dylan was a little bit worried that Neil was better than him in the exam, the pure-blood family valued value more. If Neil was just a small character, Dylan might fall out with him.As the son of the Cellar Snake King, Ke Neil inherently enjoys many advantages.After he has shown his own value, other people will only choose to win over him instead of others.Just like this time, if it wasn't for his excellent test scores and his personal value worthy of making friends, it would be impossible for Dylan to introduce his sister to him, so as to further narrow the relationship between the two of them.
"Hi, Mr. Snape." Pansy smiled coquettishly. "I don't know if I have the honor to call you Neil? If you don't mind, you can also call me Pansy."
"Of course, my honor." Neil nodded with a stiff smile on his lips.
"Neil, don't you know that I have the honor to ride in a box with you?" Seeing the good atmosphere, Dylan further extended the invitation.
Taking a deep look at Dylan, Neil nodded. "certainly."
"Then Dylan, I won't prevent you from getting along with your friends. I still have to find my friends." Pansy smiled softly at Neil, and turned to tell Dylan like a big sister.
"Okay, sister."
……
When Pansy left, Dylan and Neil boarded the Hogwarts Express together.At this time, there were not many people in the Hogwarts Express, so Dylan and Neil randomly found an empty box and walked in.
Putting away the cage containing Jedah, Neil sat down.After Dylan put away the box, he also sat opposite Neil.
"Neil, how was your summer vacation?" Taking out some snacks from his bag, Dylan casually chatted about the daily routine. "During the summer vacation, my parents took me and my sister to France for vacation. If my sister hadn't been urging me all the time, we almost missed the World Cup."
"I'm not bad either." Neil replied lightly.At this moment, he clearly realized the changes in his interpersonal relationship brought about by the change of power.Like last year, although Dylan was very friendly and polite to him, it was limited to that, and he would never sit down with himself and chat with him like he is now. "Father took me to the World Cup."
Dylan's eyes widened slightly in surprise.He didn't expect the always strict Professor Snape to have such a tender side.After hearing Neil's answer, the smile on his face also became brighter.
At this moment, two Slytherins who had a good relationship with Dylan walked into the box.
"Dylan." One of the two people was named Alves Acheson, who was an ordinary pureblood, and the other was named Alves Langman, who was a mixed blood. "Hello, Snape." The two nodded to Neil in a friendly manner.
Neil sneered inwardly.Last year, these two people never even looked at themselves.Although he was contemptuous in his heart, Neil remained calm on the face. "Acheson, Langman."
……
What makes Neil feel a little depressed is that the sky this year is still not beautiful, and it rained heavily again on the annual school day.After getting out of the car, Neil waved his wand, and cast the waterproof isolation spell on himself that Severus deliberately taught him during the summer vacation.
The three people who seemed to be happy along the way with Neil had different expressions when they saw this.A hint of admiration mixed with entanglement flashed in Dylan's eyes, and at the same time he cast a defensive spell on himself, while the faces of the other two showed deep envy.
Dylan didn't speak, just waved his wand, and cast a separation spell on the two people.Seeing this, Neil's eyes flickered, and he followed the large army and began to move forward with a blank expression.
This year, Neil is in his second year, and the way he gets to Hogwarts castle has changed as a result.Passing through the pitch-black platform, more than 100 carriages pulled by large black horses were parked outside, waiting for the students.
Looking at those vigorous black horses, Neil's eyes were a little complicated.He knew that the dark horse was called a Thestral, and only those who had witnessed death could see it.At this moment, the appearance of old Jeff when he died appeared before Neil's eyes again.grandfather……
Neil sighed.Closing his eyes and pursing his lips, Neil tried his best to suppress the surge in his heart, lifted his foot, and stepped on the carriage.
……
The auditorium in the new semester was extraordinarily lively and magnificent, but Neil, whose thoughts were seriously affected by the sight of thestrals, was rarely distracted.At this time, he was still sitting on the seat with an expression on his face, his eyes seemed to be focused on the first grade in the branch in front of him, but after careful observation, he found that Neil's eyes were out of focus.At this time, Neil's mind is full of happy or sad memories of the past and old Jeff.
When Neil came back to his senses again, the sorting ceremony was over, and the table was filled with all kinds of exquisite food.Neil randomly took a piece of pork chop, but he didn't even take a bite, it was tasteless.
Severus, who was sitting on the podium, had a twinkle in his eyes.Maybe others didn't notice, but Severus, who knew Neil very well, noticed his abnormality immediately.Normally, Neil's eyes would shine when he was eating, how could he be so absent-minded like today.
After thinking about it for a while, Severus understood the reason for Neil's abnormality.Sighing softly, Severus felt a little distressed.Some things can only be faced by Neil alone, no matter how concerned he is, he can only be a bystander.Convinced of his son's strength, Severus stopped thinking about it and focused on the food again.
When the table was clean again, Dumbledore stood up.
"...It is very regrettable to tell everyone that the school will not hold the House Cup Quidditch match this year." Before, Dumbledore was talking about some routine prohibitions, and the audience was still absent-minded. A blockbuster, the whole auditorium suddenly boiled.Countless people whispered, chattered, and looked excited.Only a few Slytherins looked less surprised.
Neil naturally didn't change his face. In his opinion, whether the Quidditch match is held or not will not have much influence on him.Just seeing Harry's excited expression on the Gryffindor table, Neil was a little worried.How much Harry loved Quidditch Neil could see clearly, and this incident was undoubtedly a great blow to him.
Looking at Draco, Neil's expression tightened.Draco's face was not the surprise and anger he thought, but the clarity and excitement that he had known for a long time.Neil blinked his eyes and his face darkened.
At this moment, the door of the auditorium was knocked open with a bang.
A man with gray hair and scars all over his face limped onto the rostrum.The man grinned wide, but the nose was blank.As for his eyes, one was normal, while the other was pale and bright blue.The entire auditorium suddenly fell silent, and everyone was frightened by this vicious and terrifying man.
The man took the only vacant seat on the podium.There was a flash of understanding in Neil's eyes.Presumably, this is the professor who knows magic defense this year.
Dumbledore's subsequent introduction confirmed Neil's guess.When he heard that the man's name was Moody, the introduction of the Brave Auror that he saw in the previous newspapers appeared in Neil's mind unexpectedly.Could it be that person?
Finally, after the introduction of Moody, the episode came to an end, and Dumbledore's words returned to the previously mentioned Quidditch match.
"In the coming time, we will be very honored to host a large-scale event that has been suspended for more than a century. I am very happy to tell you that this year the Triwizard Tournament will be held at Hogwarts."
With a 'boom' sound, the auditorium, which had been terrified by Professor Moody's leaving the factory, suddenly became noisy.
Dylan, who was sitting next to Neil, leaned into Neil's ear. "Unfortunately, there is an age limit for this competition, otherwise I would also like to try." Neil turned his head and looked at Dylan beside him, his eyes were full of ridicule.At this time, Acheson and Langman, who were sitting opposite Neil and Dylan, also poked their heads over.
Knowing that Dylan wasn't serious, Neil also hooked the corner of his mouth. "I think so too." Neil shrugged. "Unfortunately, my father will definitely not allow me to participate in such dangerous activities. He is most concerned about my safety." Although I know that other people will not dare to act aggressively towards me even out of jealousy, but In order to avoid accidents, Neil still put a hint of warning in his words.
Hearing what Neil meant, Acheson and Lang Man showed embarrassment on their faces. Dylan smiled and said no more.
☆, peace
After the start-of-term dinner was over, Severus returned to the office exhausted.As soon as he entered the office, Severus saw Bruno lying sleepy under the desk.Severus curled his lips.As soon as he saw Bruno, Severus thought of the ambiguous and teasing look in his eyes when he saw Albus in the afternoon.
With a 'chick', Severus sat on the sofa, ignoring Bruno who was already fast asleep.
In fact, Sirius had already woken up when he heard the sound of the door.Just seeing that it was Severus who entered the door, Sirius pricked up his ears but didn't want to move.Early this morning, Sirius rushed to Snape's house and pestered Severus with a faceless face. After Severus sent Neil to school, he followed Severus to Hogwarts .As soon as he arrived at Hogwarts, Severus left the office, and after that time, Sirius stayed in Severus' office bored and moldy.
Seeing Severus looking a little tired leaning on the sofa, Sirius took a human form and sat down beside him.
Feeling a sudden extra weight around him, Severus opened his eyes and glared at the cheeky Black beside him. "I remember—" Severus drew his tone, "it seems that not long ago someone promised to appear in animal form instead of human form during my office? Could it be that someone has degenerated to the point where he can't even remember the morning Can't stop?" Severus' expression was full of sarcasm.
"Come on." Sirius waved his hand indifferently, and leaned comfortably on the sofa, Sirius played foolishly openly. "Don't be so serious, Snape. I just wanted to ask Little Neil about the start of school today." Sirius was now completely reduced to child control.
Hearing Sirius' question, Severus fell into an unnatural silence.Seeing Severus' expression, Sirius suddenly became anxious, straightened up, and looked at Severus. "What's the matter? Did something happen to Neil today?" When Sirius asked this question, his tone was full of worry.
Severus shook his head. "Neil can see thestrals." Severus said the answer dryly.Thinking that Neil had already faced death at such a young age, Severus felt his heart ache.Before, although he knew that when Neil was 9 years old, his grandfather Jeff who looked after him had died, but what happened at that time, Neil has always kept secret.However, seeing that Neil was in a trance while eating today, Severus clearly realized that what happened back then must have brought great pain to Neil.Otherwise, with Neil's strong personality and always strong ability to control emotions, he wouldn't have lost his mind for such a long time just because he saw the Thestrals.
After hearing what Severus said, Sirius froze for a moment. "...He's still so young..." After a long time, Sirius murmured.Sirius has lived a good life since he was a child, and has never experienced any real hardships.Although Sirius often had confrontations with his family during school, his family did not treat him financially badly because of this.Even when he was expelled from the family in fifth grade, Uncle Alphard has always supported him.It can be said that Blake lived an extremely wealthy and comfortable life when he was a student.In this environment, let alone the second grade, Sirius didn't know what thestrals looked like until he graduated from the seventh grade.Before, although Sirius had already blamed himself extremely, but after all, Severus' description was very simple, and Sirius didn't have an intuitive understanding.And when he heard that such a young Neil could actually see thestrals, such an unacceptable fact brought a great intuitive shock to Sirius, who had a deep understanding of the wizarding world.Thinking of his own fault, Neil had already experienced unimaginable ordeals at such a young age.Sirius just wanted to run to Neil's side immediately, hug him, and comfort him.
"Hey, Snape." After a long time, Sirius finally whispered. "Look, are we getting along well? Let's not quarrel in the future." Sirius smiled wryly, "I can't believe that we have been like two children for a while, and we still need to be let go." Neil is here to worry about and reconcile our relationship." Calm down, and then think of the naive confrontation between him and Severus for a period of time and Neil's worrying eyes from time to time, and think of the expression on Neil's face that he couldn't hide when we parted this morning Sirius felt extremely guilty.He always thought that he was already a very good father, but at this moment, Sirius suddenly realized that he was still far, far away from being a good father.
Sitting up, Severus looked directly at Sirius. "...as long as you don't take the initiative to provoke..." Severus acquiesced to Sirius' peace.Compared with Sirius, Severus has more than ten years of experience and is much more mature.Before, it was because of the perennial confrontation that Severus could not voluntarily surrender when facing the aggressive Sirius.For Neil's sake, if Sirius could not take the initiative to provoke, he would not be serious with Sirius.
"Then as a sign of reconciliation, how about I call you Severus from now on, and you call me Sirius?" Seeing Severus' strange expression, Sirius added another sentence.
"...Up to you." Severus turned his face away slightly, without refusing.He knew that Neil would be very happy to see that his relationship with Sirius improved and they could call each other by their Christian names.Thinking of this, Severus had already agreed to reconcile with Sirius anyway, so he didn't care about a common title anymore.
At this moment, Severus and Sirius, who had been at odds for more than ten years, finally shook hands and made peace because of the person they cared about the most.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&Dividing line&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
The next morning, after class, Neil got rid of the people trying to accost him and headed straight to Severus' office.
"Dad." At this time, only Sirius stayed in the office alone, and Severus was teaching potions for the fifth grade in the classroom not far away.
"Neil." After closing the door and sitting on the sofa, Sirius leaned against Neil's body softly and bonelessly. "Did you rest well last night?" Sirius' eyes were slightly red and swollen when he asked this question.Last night, Severus wouldn't let him into the bedroom, so he had to go outside, turn the sofa into a bed, and settle for the night.Although he slept pretty well after falling asleep, it was just the discomfort of the sudden change of environment and the fact that he couldn't sleep because of his emotional agitation last night, which made Sirius' eye circles a little swollen.
"I'm fine." Neil patted Sirius' hand, and leaned on the sofa while Sirius acted like a baby.
"Neil, I heard from Severus yesterday that you saw thestrals when you were at the station?" Sirius couldn't help asking after seeing Neil after holding back all night.He wanted to understand his son, he wanted to unravel his son.Last night, he was always worried about whether Neil would be sad and afraid because of seeing the thestrals, and could not sleep at night.
Neil's body suddenly became stiff.His men subconsciously wanted to push Sirius away from him.The moment his hand was about to exert force, he inadvertently saw Sirius' face full of worry and exhaustion.Just like that, Neil's hand froze in mid-air, and then slowly fell.
"Yes." Neil's voice was as cold as winter hesitating.Staring fixedly at Sirius, Neil shut his mouth tightly, unwilling to say another word.
Seeing the obvious refusal on Neil's expression, Sirius sighed lightly, but didn't press the question any more.Hugging Neil tightly, Sirius said softly, "From now on, Dad will always be by your side." Sirius made a pious promise, wanting to do his best to give his son warmth.
Seeing that Sirius no longer insisted on asking himself, Neil relaxed his nerves and leaned on the sofa.After a pause, Neil finally stated his purpose for taking this time to come here.
"Father, may I accompany you to the medical wing for an examination?" Before, Severus had told him that Sirius had borrowed the name of the medical wing to recuperate his body before Dumbledore allowed him to stay in the school.Neil had been worried about Sirius' health for a long time. After hearing what Severus said, Neil would seize the opportunity and urge Sirius to go to the medical wing for an examination.
After hearing Neil's words, Siriston was speechless.Looking at Neil, Sirius looked a little guilty.He also knew that after he was released from prison, his health was not very good. It was just that he was eager to seize the time of summer vacation and spend more time with Neil, so he refused to go to St. Mungo's.After school started, he also made up his mind to go to Madam Pomfrey to recuperate his body, but he didn't expect that Neil would make such a request as soon as school started.He originally planned to get used to it for a few days before going to Madam Pomfrey.
Seeing Sirius' puffed face, Neil misunderstood what he meant, thinking that he didn't want to go for an examination.Taking a deep breath, Neil continued to persuade patiently: "Dad, you know that you are not in good health, and treatment and conditioning are necessary for you. Don't be afraid to see a doctor, I will accompany you."
Sirius' eyes widened in disbelief.He couldn't believe that he was underestimated by his son!Standing up, Sirius was aggressive. "Who said I was... scared! Let's go now!"
Neil snickered, but kept his expression on. "Okay, I was wrong, you are the bravest." Neil coaxed Sirius patiently like a child.Seeing Neil perfunctory himself, Sirius puffed up his face, but he also knew that he did it on his own.Obediently turning into Bruno, Sirius wagged his tail, signaling to go to the medical wing now.
"So cute." Neil praised Bruno after touching his big head.Opening the door of the office, Neil walked out first.
Sirius burst into tears behind him.He was actually underestimated by his son!It's so sad, is there anything!
☆, discuss
No one knows more about the school's secret passages and paths than Sirius.Following Sirius, Neil bypassed the crowd all the way and arrived at the medical wing smoothly.
"Neil, come to the hospital wing at this time, what's the matter?" Seeing Neil walking into the hospital wing with a big black dog, Madam Pomfrey's eyes flashed with surprise.
"Madame Pomfrey, I hope you can check Sirius' body." After leaving the door of his house, Neil automatically changed his address to Sirius.He wouldn't reveal his relationship with Sirius without Severus' permission and consent.During the World Cup, although the three of them acted together, due to the fact that there were too many people participating in the World Cup, and they were dispatched together with the Malfoy family, and Sirius was Narcissa's younger brother, Severus It was a fact that everyone knew that they were Lucius' friends, so no one noticed them.
"Sirius?" Madam Pomfrey was surprised at first, and then she glanced past the big black dog, with a look of understanding on her face.Yesterday, Dumbledore had already greeted him, so Madam Pomfrey did not refuse Neil's request, "I think Sirius was a frequent visitor to the medical wing at the beginning, but now that he has graduated, I will still treat him." Madam Pomfrey laughed and joked. "Sirius, come with me." After finishing speaking, Madam Pomfrey turned and walked towards the examination room.
Sirius turned the dog's head and glanced at Neil.Neil bent down and patted Sirius on the head.Sirius wagged his tail and followed Madam Pomfrey into the room.
……
After half an hour, Madam Pomfrey came out of the examination room again.Behind her, Sirius also staggered out.
Pressing her lips tightly, Madam Pomfrey looked serious. "Neil, you go back first. Sirius will be detained here. He has to stay with me for at least a week first, and then he has to come once a day."
"Madam Pomfrey, can you tell me what happened to Sirius' body?" Hearing Madam Pomfrey's words, Neil was full of worry and looked anxious.
"Don't worry, Neil. It's just that Sirius stayed in Azkaban for too long, and there is something wrong with his soul. It will be fine after half a year of recuperation." Madam Pomfrey had already been told by Sirius in the room before, So answer as lightly as possible.She didn't say that since Sirius had missed the best recuperation time, it would now take longer for his body to heal. "Go to class first, Sirius will leave it with me, don't worry."
After hearing Madam Pomfrey's words, Neil had no choice but to leave.After Neil left, Sirius took human form again.
"Thank you, Bobby." Sirius' expression was full of sincerity.
Madam Pomfrey shot Sirius sideways. "If you didn't cherish your body, you don't need to do this now." Madam Pomfrey snorted coldly, "You can do it yourself." Although Sirius promised not to share his
"Black's body needs long-term conditioning in St. Mungo's. It will take at least three months before he can barely return to normal. He has been in Azkaban for more than ten years, and his soul has been damaged." Black's question It's not caused by the body, but in the wizarding world, problems with the soul have always been the most difficult to treat.
"Barely back to normal?" Neil frowned as he repeated the information revealed in Severus' words. "Why can I only say reluctantly?"
Putting the potion bottle back in the medicine cabinet, Severus turned his head absently. "At this stage, there is no potion that can completely cure the sequelae of dementors." Severus said in his heart, telling himself that he just happened to see a dementor, so he had a sudden whim to spend time researching a complete cure for dementors. The potion of ghost aftereffect.However, due to unsatisfactory progress, his current research has not produced breakthrough results.
Misunderstood the information contained in Severus' words, Neil stopped speaking, thinking about it...
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&Dividing line&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
Time jumped to the eve of the start of school.As the school day drew closer, Sirius' mood became more and more depressed day by day.
On this day, Sirius pestered Neil again, wanting to go to school with him when school started. "Neil, why don't you take me there when school starts, okay?" Sirius turned into a big black dog again as he twisted his body beside Neil, lying on Neil's lap and rubbing his head.Harry on the side laughed and collapsed on the sofa, the corners of his mouth twitching.
Neil gently stroked Sirius' fur and rubbed his big furry head. "But you know, each person is only allowed to bring one pet in the school." Neil pointed to Jedda who was squatting aside, staring at Sirius. "What if I take you there, Jeda?"
After hearing Neil's words, Sirius turned into a human again, looking at Neil pitifully with a bitter face.
Neil was softened by Sirius' expression and had to surrender. "How about this, if you can convince your father to let him take you to school, I won't object, okay?" Suddenly, Neil thought of a way to retreat and kill two birds with one stone.If his father disagrees with Sirius, then he has nothing to do; if his father agrees, then everyone will be happy, and at the same time, the relationship between the two of them will be deepened.The most important thing is that in this way, he can further find a way to get his father to treat his father.And, no matter what, it was impossible for him to leave Yeda, who had been with him for so long, alone at home.
Sirius was dumbfounded after hearing Neil's words.It took a long time for Sirius to come back to his senses, and said bitterly: "I will definitely let Snape agree!" Sirius stood up with his hands on his hips, cheering for himself without confidence.
Harry on the side looked at Neil with admiration.In the past two days, he has been tortured by Sirius to the point of being overwhelmed, and he is about to cede the land for compensation.Although he felt sorry for Sirius staying at home alone, the school stipulated that each person could only bring one pet. He really had no way to ignore Hedwig and take Sirius to school instead.What's more, Harry also felt that Sirius should have his own life, instead of just spinning around himself and Neil all day long.After all, he has now restored his reputation and is free to walk the wizarding world.Unexpectedly, what seemed to him a huge problem was resolved lightly by Neil with a few words.In Harry's mind, of course, the possibility of Sirius' success never even occurred to him.Winking at Neil, Harry grinned sarcastically.This idea is absolutely perfect!
Seeing Harry's overjoyed expression, Neil raised his eyebrows.He wasn't as optimistic as Harry.Whether father can convince father or not is hard for anyone to say...
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&Dividing line&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
Doing what he thought, Sirius directly let Neil and Harry play at home, and Apparated to Snape's door by himself.
Ringing the doorbell, Sirius grimaced and grumbled.This Snape is simply too hateful!He actually blocked his ability to use the fireplace to go to his house without making a sound. If he hadn't been bounced back by the fireplace just now, he wouldn't have discovered this.It's just too cunning!At this moment, Sirius was filled with resentment.
After waiting for a long time, the door of Snape's house opened slowly.
"I don't know why Blake, who is busy with everything, is going to come to the door?" Leaning on the door, Severus showed a smirk, deliberately using words to tease Sirius who had nothing to do during the day.It was one thing for him not to pick on Black, but Black came after him, and Severus wasn't going to fight back.
Pushing Severus' hand away, Sirius cheekily squeezed his way into the room.Confidently blocking it, Severus let go, acquiescing to Sirius stepping into his territory.
Sitting on the sofa, Sirius stretched lazily before explaining his purpose. "Snape, can I become your pet and go to school with you after school starts?" Sirius had a flattering attitude when he asked for help. "Don't worry, I won't bother you when I get to school."
Frowning, Severus knew that nothing good would happen when Sirius came.Without even thinking about it, Severus refused directly. "I don't know if Mr. Black overestimates his charm, but I don't seem to have the obligation to be at your disposal."
Sirius narrowed his eyes slyly. "Hey." Sirius covered his head. "I'm really out of energy during this time, and I don't know if when I saw Neil, I would accidentally say something that shouldn't be said..." Knowing that being soft would not have any effect, Sirius directly threatened.
"You!" Severus was really angry, staring at Sirius.Sirius couldn't bear to show weakness, and stared back.After a long time, Severus surrendered. "But Dumbledore knows your Animagus, he won't agree." Severus who said this was actually showing weakness.Although he didn't want to bring such an oil bottle, but no matter what, Severus really didn't dare to bet that if he didn't agree, would Sirius really put all his eggs in one basket and tell Neal what he had forced him to do back then? .This is his weakness, he doesn't want to see Neil's disappointed eyes.Besides... Sirius' body should also be adjusted systematically...
Knowing that Severus had acquiesced, Sirius nodded triumphantly. "You don't need to worry about this, I have a way to convince Albus." He could see that Albus felt a certain amount of guilt towards himself after being imprisoned innocently for so long.He entered Hogwarts on the grounds that he wanted Madam Pomfrey to recuperate his body, and at the same time, he took the initiative to find ways to cover up his usual whereabouts. With Dumbledore's tolerant personality, he probably would not refuse his request.
Severus was silent for a while after listening to Sirius' words. "If you can get Albus' acquiescence..." Sirius' request was agreed.
"Thanks, Snape." Sirius thanked triumphantly, ready to leave happily. "I'll go back and tell Neil right now." After thinking about it, Sirius disappeared in place.
Looking at the living room which became empty again, Severus gave a wry smile...
Back at Black's old house again, Sirius triumphantly told Harry and Neil that Severus had agreed to take him to school as a pet.Harry's jaw dropped in shock, his eyes bulging in disbelief. "No way? Professor Snape would agree? How is that possible?"
Neil smiled and said nothing, but was not too surprised by this result.After touching Bruno's head, Neil said softly, "In that case, I will take good care of you when we get to school." Although he didn't say it clearly, Neil was still slightly moved.He understood that the reason why Sirius made a fuss about going to school was entirely to cling to himself.Gently resting his head on Black's big dog's head, Neil turned his head slightly to look at Harry. "After school starts, you have one week, and I have one week?" Neil said, pointing to Bruno who squinted comfortably.
Harry squeezed over with a smile, put his arms around half of Bruno's body, and nodded. "good."
☆, start of school
On the first day of school, Neil was sent to King's Cross by Severus early as usual.Entering Platform Nine and Three Quarters, Neil unexpectedly met Dylan who hadn't contacted him during the summer vacation.
"Neil." Seeing Neil, Dylan walked up to greet him reservedly.Although there was a smile on his face, Ke Neil could still see a touch of unnaturalness on Dylan's face.
"Dylan." Neil also nodded expressionlessly.Neil is very clear about the reason why Dylan is facing unnaturalness.Anyone who performed the best throughout the year, but was surpassed by the last few in the grade at the end of the semester, it is impossible to have no thoughts at all, even if that person can barely be called his friend.Besides, this incident still happened in a place like Slytherin, where the power is the first, and others can stand aside.Since Neil chose this way to express himself, he naturally expected Dylan's possible reaction.In his opinion, Dylan can still keep calm, and he has performed very well without questioning him.
"Neil, come, let me introduce you. This is my sister, Pansy Parkinson." Only then did Neil notice a girl following Dylan.Neil had seen this girl before, she was on the same level as Draco, and the relationship seemed to be pretty good.
Neil was a little puzzled, but he still greeted him without changing his face. "Hello, Miss Parkinson." He couldn't understand why Dylan not only didn't show the slightest sign of anger, but also introduced his sister to him.
It has to be said that Neil's understanding of pure-blood families comes mostly from books, and here, he got a little confused.Although Dylan was a little bit worried that Neil was better than him in the exam, the pure-blood family valued value more. If Neil was just a small character, Dylan might fall out with him.As the son of the Cellar Snake King, Ke Neil inherently enjoys many advantages.After he has shown his own value, other people will only choose to win over him instead of others.Just like this time, if it wasn't for his excellent test scores and his personal value worthy of making friends, it would be impossible for Dylan to introduce his sister to him, so as to further narrow the relationship between the two of them.
"Hi, Mr. Snape." Pansy smiled coquettishly. "I don't know if I have the honor to call you Neil? If you don't mind, you can also call me Pansy."
"Of course, my honor." Neil nodded with a stiff smile on his lips.
"Neil, don't you know that I have the honor to ride in a box with you?" Seeing the good atmosphere, Dylan further extended the invitation.
Taking a deep look at Dylan, Neil nodded. "certainly."
"Then Dylan, I won't prevent you from getting along with your friends. I still have to find my friends." Pansy smiled softly at Neil, and turned to tell Dylan like a big sister.
"Okay, sister."
……
When Pansy left, Dylan and Neil boarded the Hogwarts Express together.At this time, there were not many people in the Hogwarts Express, so Dylan and Neil randomly found an empty box and walked in.
Putting away the cage containing Jedah, Neil sat down.After Dylan put away the box, he also sat opposite Neil.
"Neil, how was your summer vacation?" Taking out some snacks from his bag, Dylan casually chatted about the daily routine. "During the summer vacation, my parents took me and my sister to France for vacation. If my sister hadn't been urging me all the time, we almost missed the World Cup."
"I'm not bad either." Neil replied lightly.At this moment, he clearly realized the changes in his interpersonal relationship brought about by the change of power.Like last year, although Dylan was very friendly and polite to him, it was limited to that, and he would never sit down with himself and chat with him like he is now. "Father took me to the World Cup."
Dylan's eyes widened slightly in surprise.He didn't expect the always strict Professor Snape to have such a tender side.After hearing Neil's answer, the smile on his face also became brighter.
At this moment, two Slytherins who had a good relationship with Dylan walked into the box.
"Dylan." One of the two people was named Alves Acheson, who was an ordinary pureblood, and the other was named Alves Langman, who was a mixed blood. "Hello, Snape." The two nodded to Neil in a friendly manner.
Neil sneered inwardly.Last year, these two people never even looked at themselves.Although he was contemptuous in his heart, Neil remained calm on the face. "Acheson, Langman."
……
What makes Neil feel a little depressed is that the sky this year is still not beautiful, and it rained heavily again on the annual school day.After getting out of the car, Neil waved his wand, and cast the waterproof isolation spell on himself that Severus deliberately taught him during the summer vacation.
The three people who seemed to be happy along the way with Neil had different expressions when they saw this.A hint of admiration mixed with entanglement flashed in Dylan's eyes, and at the same time he cast a defensive spell on himself, while the faces of the other two showed deep envy.
Dylan didn't speak, just waved his wand, and cast a separation spell on the two people.Seeing this, Neil's eyes flickered, and he followed the large army and began to move forward with a blank expression.
This year, Neil is in his second year, and the way he gets to Hogwarts castle has changed as a result.Passing through the pitch-black platform, more than 100 carriages pulled by large black horses were parked outside, waiting for the students.
Looking at those vigorous black horses, Neil's eyes were a little complicated.He knew that the dark horse was called a Thestral, and only those who had witnessed death could see it.At this moment, the appearance of old Jeff when he died appeared before Neil's eyes again.grandfather……
Neil sighed.Closing his eyes and pursing his lips, Neil tried his best to suppress the surge in his heart, lifted his foot, and stepped on the carriage.
……
The auditorium in the new semester was extraordinarily lively and magnificent, but Neil, whose thoughts were seriously affected by the sight of thestrals, was rarely distracted.At this time, he was still sitting on the seat with an expression on his face, his eyes seemed to be focused on the first grade in the branch in front of him, but after careful observation, he found that Neil's eyes were out of focus.At this time, Neil's mind is full of happy or sad memories of the past and old Jeff.
When Neil came back to his senses again, the sorting ceremony was over, and the table was filled with all kinds of exquisite food.Neil randomly took a piece of pork chop, but he didn't even take a bite, it was tasteless.
Severus, who was sitting on the podium, had a twinkle in his eyes.Maybe others didn't notice, but Severus, who knew Neil very well, noticed his abnormality immediately.Normally, Neil's eyes would shine when he was eating, how could he be so absent-minded like today.
After thinking about it for a while, Severus understood the reason for Neil's abnormality.Sighing softly, Severus felt a little distressed.Some things can only be faced by Neil alone, no matter how concerned he is, he can only be a bystander.Convinced of his son's strength, Severus stopped thinking about it and focused on the food again.
When the table was clean again, Dumbledore stood up.
"...It is very regrettable to tell everyone that the school will not hold the House Cup Quidditch match this year." Before, Dumbledore was talking about some routine prohibitions, and the audience was still absent-minded. A blockbuster, the whole auditorium suddenly boiled.Countless people whispered, chattered, and looked excited.Only a few Slytherins looked less surprised.
Neil naturally didn't change his face. In his opinion, whether the Quidditch match is held or not will not have much influence on him.Just seeing Harry's excited expression on the Gryffindor table, Neil was a little worried.How much Harry loved Quidditch Neil could see clearly, and this incident was undoubtedly a great blow to him.
Looking at Draco, Neil's expression tightened.Draco's face was not the surprise and anger he thought, but the clarity and excitement that he had known for a long time.Neil blinked his eyes and his face darkened.
At this moment, the door of the auditorium was knocked open with a bang.
A man with gray hair and scars all over his face limped onto the rostrum.The man grinned wide, but the nose was blank.As for his eyes, one was normal, while the other was pale and bright blue.The entire auditorium suddenly fell silent, and everyone was frightened by this vicious and terrifying man.
The man took the only vacant seat on the podium.There was a flash of understanding in Neil's eyes.Presumably, this is the professor who knows magic defense this year.
Dumbledore's subsequent introduction confirmed Neil's guess.When he heard that the man's name was Moody, the introduction of the Brave Auror that he saw in the previous newspapers appeared in Neil's mind unexpectedly.Could it be that person?
Finally, after the introduction of Moody, the episode came to an end, and Dumbledore's words returned to the previously mentioned Quidditch match.
"In the coming time, we will be very honored to host a large-scale event that has been suspended for more than a century. I am very happy to tell you that this year the Triwizard Tournament will be held at Hogwarts."
With a 'boom' sound, the auditorium, which had been terrified by Professor Moody's leaving the factory, suddenly became noisy.
Dylan, who was sitting next to Neil, leaned into Neil's ear. "Unfortunately, there is an age limit for this competition, otherwise I would also like to try." Neil turned his head and looked at Dylan beside him, his eyes were full of ridicule.At this time, Acheson and Langman, who were sitting opposite Neil and Dylan, also poked their heads over.
Knowing that Dylan wasn't serious, Neil also hooked the corner of his mouth. "I think so too." Neil shrugged. "Unfortunately, my father will definitely not allow me to participate in such dangerous activities. He is most concerned about my safety." Although I know that other people will not dare to act aggressively towards me even out of jealousy, but In order to avoid accidents, Neil still put a hint of warning in his words.
Hearing what Neil meant, Acheson and Lang Man showed embarrassment on their faces. Dylan smiled and said no more.
☆, peace
After the start-of-term dinner was over, Severus returned to the office exhausted.As soon as he entered the office, Severus saw Bruno lying sleepy under the desk.Severus curled his lips.As soon as he saw Bruno, Severus thought of the ambiguous and teasing look in his eyes when he saw Albus in the afternoon.
With a 'chick', Severus sat on the sofa, ignoring Bruno who was already fast asleep.
In fact, Sirius had already woken up when he heard the sound of the door.Just seeing that it was Severus who entered the door, Sirius pricked up his ears but didn't want to move.Early this morning, Sirius rushed to Snape's house and pestered Severus with a faceless face. After Severus sent Neil to school, he followed Severus to Hogwarts .As soon as he arrived at Hogwarts, Severus left the office, and after that time, Sirius stayed in Severus' office bored and moldy.
Seeing Severus looking a little tired leaning on the sofa, Sirius took a human form and sat down beside him.
Feeling a sudden extra weight around him, Severus opened his eyes and glared at the cheeky Black beside him. "I remember—" Severus drew his tone, "it seems that not long ago someone promised to appear in animal form instead of human form during my office? Could it be that someone has degenerated to the point where he can't even remember the morning Can't stop?" Severus' expression was full of sarcasm.
"Come on." Sirius waved his hand indifferently, and leaned comfortably on the sofa, Sirius played foolishly openly. "Don't be so serious, Snape. I just wanted to ask Little Neil about the start of school today." Sirius was now completely reduced to child control.
Hearing Sirius' question, Severus fell into an unnatural silence.Seeing Severus' expression, Sirius suddenly became anxious, straightened up, and looked at Severus. "What's the matter? Did something happen to Neil today?" When Sirius asked this question, his tone was full of worry.
Severus shook his head. "Neil can see thestrals." Severus said the answer dryly.Thinking that Neil had already faced death at such a young age, Severus felt his heart ache.Before, although he knew that when Neil was 9 years old, his grandfather Jeff who looked after him had died, but what happened at that time, Neil has always kept secret.However, seeing that Neil was in a trance while eating today, Severus clearly realized that what happened back then must have brought great pain to Neil.Otherwise, with Neil's strong personality and always strong ability to control emotions, he wouldn't have lost his mind for such a long time just because he saw the Thestrals.
After hearing what Severus said, Sirius froze for a moment. "...He's still so young..." After a long time, Sirius murmured.Sirius has lived a good life since he was a child, and has never experienced any real hardships.Although Sirius often had confrontations with his family during school, his family did not treat him financially badly because of this.Even when he was expelled from the family in fifth grade, Uncle Alphard has always supported him.It can be said that Blake lived an extremely wealthy and comfortable life when he was a student.In this environment, let alone the second grade, Sirius didn't know what thestrals looked like until he graduated from the seventh grade.Before, although Sirius had already blamed himself extremely, but after all, Severus' description was very simple, and Sirius didn't have an intuitive understanding.And when he heard that such a young Neil could actually see thestrals, such an unacceptable fact brought a great intuitive shock to Sirius, who had a deep understanding of the wizarding world.Thinking of his own fault, Neil had already experienced unimaginable ordeals at such a young age.Sirius just wanted to run to Neil's side immediately, hug him, and comfort him.
"Hey, Snape." After a long time, Sirius finally whispered. "Look, are we getting along well? Let's not quarrel in the future." Sirius smiled wryly, "I can't believe that we have been like two children for a while, and we still need to be let go." Neil is here to worry about and reconcile our relationship." Calm down, and then think of the naive confrontation between him and Severus for a period of time and Neil's worrying eyes from time to time, and think of the expression on Neil's face that he couldn't hide when we parted this morning Sirius felt extremely guilty.He always thought that he was already a very good father, but at this moment, Sirius suddenly realized that he was still far, far away from being a good father.
Sitting up, Severus looked directly at Sirius. "...as long as you don't take the initiative to provoke..." Severus acquiesced to Sirius' peace.Compared with Sirius, Severus has more than ten years of experience and is much more mature.Before, it was because of the perennial confrontation that Severus could not voluntarily surrender when facing the aggressive Sirius.For Neil's sake, if Sirius could not take the initiative to provoke, he would not be serious with Sirius.
"Then as a sign of reconciliation, how about I call you Severus from now on, and you call me Sirius?" Seeing Severus' strange expression, Sirius added another sentence.
"...Up to you." Severus turned his face away slightly, without refusing.He knew that Neil would be very happy to see that his relationship with Sirius improved and they could call each other by their Christian names.Thinking of this, Severus had already agreed to reconcile with Sirius anyway, so he didn't care about a common title anymore.
At this moment, Severus and Sirius, who had been at odds for more than ten years, finally shook hands and made peace because of the person they cared about the most.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&Dividing line&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
The next morning, after class, Neil got rid of the people trying to accost him and headed straight to Severus' office.
"Dad." At this time, only Sirius stayed in the office alone, and Severus was teaching potions for the fifth grade in the classroom not far away.
"Neil." After closing the door and sitting on the sofa, Sirius leaned against Neil's body softly and bonelessly. "Did you rest well last night?" Sirius' eyes were slightly red and swollen when he asked this question.Last night, Severus wouldn't let him into the bedroom, so he had to go outside, turn the sofa into a bed, and settle for the night.Although he slept pretty well after falling asleep, it was just the discomfort of the sudden change of environment and the fact that he couldn't sleep because of his emotional agitation last night, which made Sirius' eye circles a little swollen.
"I'm fine." Neil patted Sirius' hand, and leaned on the sofa while Sirius acted like a baby.
"Neil, I heard from Severus yesterday that you saw thestrals when you were at the station?" Sirius couldn't help asking after seeing Neil after holding back all night.He wanted to understand his son, he wanted to unravel his son.Last night, he was always worried about whether Neil would be sad and afraid because of seeing the thestrals, and could not sleep at night.
Neil's body suddenly became stiff.His men subconsciously wanted to push Sirius away from him.The moment his hand was about to exert force, he inadvertently saw Sirius' face full of worry and exhaustion.Just like that, Neil's hand froze in mid-air, and then slowly fell.
"Yes." Neil's voice was as cold as winter hesitating.Staring fixedly at Sirius, Neil shut his mouth tightly, unwilling to say another word.
Seeing the obvious refusal on Neil's expression, Sirius sighed lightly, but didn't press the question any more.Hugging Neil tightly, Sirius said softly, "From now on, Dad will always be by your side." Sirius made a pious promise, wanting to do his best to give his son warmth.
Seeing that Sirius no longer insisted on asking himself, Neil relaxed his nerves and leaned on the sofa.After a pause, Neil finally stated his purpose for taking this time to come here.
"Father, may I accompany you to the medical wing for an examination?" Before, Severus had told him that Sirius had borrowed the name of the medical wing to recuperate his body before Dumbledore allowed him to stay in the school.Neil had been worried about Sirius' health for a long time. After hearing what Severus said, Neil would seize the opportunity and urge Sirius to go to the medical wing for an examination.
After hearing Neil's words, Siriston was speechless.Looking at Neil, Sirius looked a little guilty.He also knew that after he was released from prison, his health was not very good. It was just that he was eager to seize the time of summer vacation and spend more time with Neil, so he refused to go to St. Mungo's.After school started, he also made up his mind to go to Madam Pomfrey to recuperate his body, but he didn't expect that Neil would make such a request as soon as school started.He originally planned to get used to it for a few days before going to Madam Pomfrey.
Seeing Sirius' puffed face, Neil misunderstood what he meant, thinking that he didn't want to go for an examination.Taking a deep breath, Neil continued to persuade patiently: "Dad, you know that you are not in good health, and treatment and conditioning are necessary for you. Don't be afraid to see a doctor, I will accompany you."
Sirius' eyes widened in disbelief.He couldn't believe that he was underestimated by his son!Standing up, Sirius was aggressive. "Who said I was... scared! Let's go now!"
Neil snickered, but kept his expression on. "Okay, I was wrong, you are the bravest." Neil coaxed Sirius patiently like a child.Seeing Neil perfunctory himself, Sirius puffed up his face, but he also knew that he did it on his own.Obediently turning into Bruno, Sirius wagged his tail, signaling to go to the medical wing now.
"So cute." Neil praised Bruno after touching his big head.Opening the door of the office, Neil walked out first.
Sirius burst into tears behind him.He was actually underestimated by his son!It's so sad, is there anything!
☆, discuss
No one knows more about the school's secret passages and paths than Sirius.Following Sirius, Neil bypassed the crowd all the way and arrived at the medical wing smoothly.
"Neil, come to the hospital wing at this time, what's the matter?" Seeing Neil walking into the hospital wing with a big black dog, Madam Pomfrey's eyes flashed with surprise.
"Madame Pomfrey, I hope you can check Sirius' body." After leaving the door of his house, Neil automatically changed his address to Sirius.He wouldn't reveal his relationship with Sirius without Severus' permission and consent.During the World Cup, although the three of them acted together, due to the fact that there were too many people participating in the World Cup, and they were dispatched together with the Malfoy family, and Sirius was Narcissa's younger brother, Severus It was a fact that everyone knew that they were Lucius' friends, so no one noticed them.
"Sirius?" Madam Pomfrey was surprised at first, and then she glanced past the big black dog, with a look of understanding on her face.Yesterday, Dumbledore had already greeted him, so Madam Pomfrey did not refuse Neil's request, "I think Sirius was a frequent visitor to the medical wing at the beginning, but now that he has graduated, I will still treat him." Madam Pomfrey laughed and joked. "Sirius, come with me." After finishing speaking, Madam Pomfrey turned and walked towards the examination room.
Sirius turned the dog's head and glanced at Neil.Neil bent down and patted Sirius on the head.Sirius wagged his tail and followed Madam Pomfrey into the room.
……
After half an hour, Madam Pomfrey came out of the examination room again.Behind her, Sirius also staggered out.
Pressing her lips tightly, Madam Pomfrey looked serious. "Neil, you go back first. Sirius will be detained here. He has to stay with me for at least a week first, and then he has to come once a day."
"Madam Pomfrey, can you tell me what happened to Sirius' body?" Hearing Madam Pomfrey's words, Neil was full of worry and looked anxious.
"Don't worry, Neil. It's just that Sirius stayed in Azkaban for too long, and there is something wrong with his soul. It will be fine after half a year of recuperation." Madam Pomfrey had already been told by Sirius in the room before, So answer as lightly as possible.She didn't say that since Sirius had missed the best recuperation time, it would now take longer for his body to heal. "Go to class first, Sirius will leave it with me, don't worry."
After hearing Madam Pomfrey's words, Neil had no choice but to leave.After Neil left, Sirius took human form again.
"Thank you, Bobby." Sirius' expression was full of sincerity.
Madam Pomfrey shot Sirius sideways. "If you didn't cherish your body, you don't need to do this now." Madam Pomfrey snorted coldly, "You can do it yourself." Although Sirius promised not to share his
