[HP] Illusion

It was the most beautiful smile Harry had ever seen, bar none.

"We can stay for a few more days," Snape offered.

Perhaps, this was the only thing he could do for Harry.

"When this is over, we will have a new beginning." Harry's voice was very soft, and he grabbed Snape's hand tightly.

He is greedy for everything here, but a voice keeps telling him that he cannot indulge in this world.The voice did not come from Snape.

Snape told him it was a good start.

Giving and rewarding are symbiotic. Of course, some people will choose to accept another person's giving with peace of mind, but Harry thinks he can't do it.

After talking with Lily, Harry clearly felt that the initial pain was disappearing bit by bit. Whether Lily was real or not was no longer important. The most important thing was that she was still by their side-in fact , with Snape by his side, he could clearly distinguish everything in front of him.

Maybe one day, he could do it, and he would be able to tell the difference clearly even without Snape.

Well, but that's obviously impossible.

He and Snape's souls were bound together until their souls were annihilated. It should be said that even if their souls disappeared, they would only disappear together.

For the remaining few days, Harry felt the happiness that came from family affection—Lily was still young before, and he was the only one who took care of her. When Lily grew up, he was still young and knew nothing. The love given to him is very similar, but the bond of blood makes this feeling more subtle, satisfying the desire from the depths of his soul.

Lily made him really believe that this world is real, even though this is just the world of his memories with Snape, such memories are the most real.

☆☆☆

While Harry and Snape were experiencing some kind of unknown happiness, some people were obviously not very happy.

In fact, it was a splitting headache.

On the day when school was about to start, Harry and Snape still hadn't woken up, and Dumbledore had to discuss the unreliable plan with Grindelwald.

As for whether it is necessary to play Harry or something... Dumbledore shuddered when he thought of this.

Under the feeding of the potion, Harry and Snape were in good health. Although they were a little thin, they only seemed to have slept for three days, not comatose for ten days or so.

"What are you going to do?" In addition to letting Grindelwald pretend to be Snape temporarily, they also talked about the need for others to cover Harry.

Dumbledore actually thought about it for a long time, and finally decided to ask Ron and Hermione for help.

"I'm going to bring Ron and Hermione back."

Grindelwald raised his chin towards the two who were still holding hands and sleeping on the bed, "Are you sure this is a good way?"

"I don't know if this is a good way, but it's definitely the most worry-free way." Dumbledore tugged at his long snow-white beard, "As for whether Ron and Hermione will find out about their relationship... I think they'll find out sooner or later."

On the side of the bed, Dumbledore tucked up the duvet covering the two of them, and stuffed their tangled hands into it.

"I think you're trying to cover up."

The posture of the two on the bed seems to be quite intimate.

"They just slept in the same bed," said Dumbledore against his will, "I don't think Ron and Hermione would lift Severus's blanket."

☆☆☆

There is also the same uncomfortable--

At this moment, the world outside is ice and snow, just like the day they came back.

This Christmas holiday starts with white and ends with white, which makes people shiver.But what made Ron and Hermione the coldest was not the thawing weather when the wind and snow had stopped and the sun was shining, but Harry's disappearance again.

Every time they sent a letter, they were turned back. After Harry said his forgiveness that day, the three of them still kept in touch, and met once or twice around Christmas, when Sirius set off for the Auror training camp. Afterwards, they hardly heard from Harry.

The two finally couldn't bear to go to Black's old house, but found that there was no one in the house. As for the old stubborn elf, he was not willing to tell them Harry's whereabouts at all.

In order to find out what happened to Harry, Hermione simply moved to the Burrow for the last few days of the holiday so that she, Ron, Ginny (and maybe Harry) could go to school together.But until the morning of the last day, when they were packing their luggage, they still couldn't find Harry's whereabouts, and even Molly and Arthur were helpless.

Arthur was not free today, and Molly was in charge of taking the three of them out, but before leaving, they met an unexpected person.

"I think I came in time." Dumbledore stood at the door, shaking off the few snow dusts on his body, which he had accidentally contaminated before he came.

"Albus? You didn't come to find Arthur, did you?" Molly was still standing at the door, with her fat body just in the middle, looking a little vigilant.

Dumbledore saw the problem: "Does it need to be verified? For example, when was the Order of the Phoenix established?"

The three people who were blocked behind: "..."

"Okay, so you're here to..."

"Looking for Ron and Hermione, I hope they can go back to school early with me... Of course, Ginny too."

"Why?" Molly asked puzzled.

"Because I need help." Dumbledore looked at Molly and said earnestly, "It's not too much trouble, but only Ron and Hermione can help me."

Although Molly looked at Dumbledore with some puzzlement, the tiredness on the old man's face was so intense that he couldn't get rid of it. It seemed that he would not have come here if there was no other way.

"Is it about Harry?" Molly couldn't think of any other possibility except Harry, who had disappeared for a long time. "Where is he? What happened to him, did something happen?"

"Calm down, Molly, Harry is not in too much trouble." Dumbledore took off his half-moon glasses and wiped them, and said slowly, "Forgive me for not revealing his situation. Now, let me take three Take a child away?"

"I will go with you."

Dumbledore thought for a second, nodded and said, "If you want to see the children, we can only go to Hogsmeade, but if you want to see Harry... then I'm sorry, it's not convenient for him to see other people."

can you be honest with meMolly was a little angry. Harry had disappeared for such a long time, and now there was news, but it was this news.

"Time is tight, Molly. There is a dinner tonight. I need to arrange everything before then." Dumbledore sighed. Today is their school start time. Take a walk, maybe he should have come earlier, but Harry's news should not be exposed because of Ron and Hermione.

Just when Ron and Ginny thought their mother would go crazy, she unexpectedly compromised.

The five came to Hogsmeade together, and Molly wanted to take the opportunity to go to Hogwarts with them, but was still rejected by Dumbledore, "Molly, you know the rules, I will take the three of them away now, You go back too."

Finally, Molly was persuaded, and Dumbledore led the three of them towards the castle. After entering the castle, Dumbledore immediately summoned the house elf to take away the luggage of the three, and then he said to Ginny: "Sorry, Ginny, I need you to leave first, I hope you don't mind."

Ginny looked at Dumbledore nervously, then looked at her brother and Hermione with a pleading expression, "I want to know about Harry too, can't I go together?"

"I'm sorry," Dumbledore blinked, "Also, it's true that something happened to Harry now, but I don't want others to know, and I hope you all don't say anything to others."

"I really can't..."

"I'm sorry, boy." Dumbledore refused a third time.

Ginny closed her mouth tightly, nodded solemnly, and left in the opposite direction.

Dumbledore signaled Ron and Hermione to follow him. They didn't meet anyone along the way. Ron and Hermione wanted to ask about Harry's situation, but because Dumbledore was serious, they also knew This is definitely not a good place to talk, so until they stopped near the medical wing, neither of them had a word with Dumbledore.

Dumbledore stopped in front of a door, which made Ron and Hermione jump, who were walking forward.

"Is Harry in there?"

"That's right," Dumbledore put his hand on the doorknob, but did not unscrew it. "I hope you are mentally prepared."

"Is Harry not feeling well?" Ron and Hermione's expressions tensed immediately.

"You will know when you go in."

Ron and Hermione were in up and down moods at this time. Although Dumbledore kept telling them that Harry's situation was not particularly serious, he wanted to leave everyone else behind, leaving only the two of them. Make them feel a little overwhelmed.

What happened to Harry?Is it an injury, or is something wrong?

Under the cranky thinking of the two, Dumbledore slowly opened the door.

Ron and Hermione saw the situation inside the door when the old man stepped aside halfway.

"Merlin—" came the almost screaming voice from Ron.

Fortunately, at this time, Dumbledore had already closed the door.

Ron was mentally prepared for everything, including Harry's disfigurement, Harry's body being seriously injured, and Harry's possible coma...

Yes, Harry was indeed unconscious, but Snape was also unconscious, and the two of them were sleeping on the same hospital bed! !

They must have opened it the wrong way!

"What's going on here?" Ron leaned forward and looked at the two people who were sleeping soundly (?) in the glass window, "You asked us to come just to let us see this?"

Dumbledore said: He is innocent too, isn't he!
