[HP] Illusion

Chapter 74

When a group of freshmen came up from the dark lake, the sky had turned into a dark blue, the sky was full of stars, reflecting the bright lights outside the castle, the huge castle stood tall in front of you, majestic and magnificent The heart of awe suddenly rose, and there was a glimmer of expectation.

Lily found it very strange that little Snape seemed particularly absent-minded. He kept looking into the dark place where no one was around, as if he was looking for something, but when she smelled it, the boy didn't speak in detail, nor did he say why.The red-haired girl was actually very nervous, because they were already approaching the gate of the castle, and according to Harry, they were about to start sorting soon, and she was worried that Snape's distraction would affect his sorting.

"Do you think we can be in the same academy?" Lily really wanted to get Snape's attention back, but obviously failed——

"We're still in the same school," said little Snape vaguely. At this moment, he turned his head frequently, because just now the freshmen were coming by boat, and their boat was already full—there was no place for young people at all, so Where is the youth association? "Harry said not to care about Sorting."

Hearing these words, Lily's expression brightened obviously. "Are you really not nervous?" She couldn't help asking.

He didn't know how to answer this question, and he didn't want to tell Lily that Harry was there.

—Obviously he should have told her.

"It's okay," he comforted Lily seriously, "Harry said it's not difficult."

As soon as his words fell, a boy next door said nervously: "Whoever said that, he must have lied to you. My father told me that we have to pass the test after test, and it is very difficult. I now My palms are sweating nervously."

Someone scoffed at this, and said half-sarcastically: "Then you will definitely go into Hufflepuff, there are all idiots—"

Lily still had a little worry on her face, and Snape was still absent-minded, as if basically nothing could get his attention.

"—Aren't you right, little dark wizard?"

Little Snape didn't know he was talking to him until someone touched him.But even so, he didn't respond.

On the contrary, Lily listened to his words and retorted righteously: "I don't think there is any problem in going to any college. I believe that the professors will never treat them differently. Also, please take back that sentence and don't insult people casually. "

The boy who spoke just now—Sirius said with a sneer: "Am I wrong? He is a Slytherin from the bottom of his bones."

"Didn't you also say that your whole family is Slytherin? Also, why do you keep targeting—" Lily was angry, and she only spoke half of her words, when the door was slowly opened, and a sullen The witch stood before them, looking calm and intimidated.

It worked, and her presence instantly silenced the rowdy freshmen en masse.

"Welcome to Hogwarts," Professor McGonagall rolled his eyes around the faces of dozens of freshmen, but he couldn't see any joy or anger, "I am the vice-principal of Hogwarts, Miller Wamag, now I will take you in from here, and then there will be your sorting ceremony."

She asked everyone to line up. At this time, Snape still turned his head frequently, and Lily also fell behind in order to accommodate him.

"What's the matter with you? Is there anything behind?" Lily asked in a low voice, "The sorting ceremony will be coming soon, you have to cheer up."

It wasn't until everyone started to file in, just when the two had to go in, that Snape turned around as if giving up.

Lily looked at him worriedly, "Are you okay?"

"It's gone..." Little Snape said in a daze.

Lily was startled, "What's missing? Are you missing something?"

"No..." Little Snape shook his head, "I was wrong."

Maybe he's already in there?Follow the seniors?

Harry had indeed followed the group of senior students into the gate of the castle long ago. He found a place quite far from the professor's seat, and after making sure that he hadn't exposed any flaws, he stayed there peacefully waiting for the first-year students enter the door.

At this moment, the four long tables were already full of people, and it was extremely noisy. I haven't seen them in a summer vacation, and of course I couldn't stop what I wanted to say.All kinds of tempting food hills are piled up on the silver dinner plate, making people move their index fingers, tempting people who can't resist the temptation and are stealing.

Because Harry was accidentally exposed on the train, he and Snape had something to eat before getting off the train. He was not very hungry at the moment, otherwise he would be tortured and hang up.

"Freshmen are coming in," the students closest to Harry spotted the freshmen coming in through the door with keen eyes. "How many people do you think will be assigned to our college this year?" one of them asked.

"Our college always has the largest number of people," another person said with anticipation, "I don't know how many people there will be in Slytherin this year. Last year, they didn't even have ten people. I don't know if there will be fewer this year." ..."

Harry was not in the mood to listen to the few of them talking. At this time, all the freshmen had entered the arena and lined up neatly——

His father and Sirius were at the front of the line. Their expressions looked confident and arrogant, but looking at it this way, they would not be annoying.

As for Lily and Snape, they stood at the end of the line.

He also saw Lupine, Moonface, a few rows back with the... very wimpy-looking Peter Pettigrew, whom Harry glanced over, before falling to the end of the line again.

Lily was nervous, and little Snape was obviously looking around, looking for something.

Harry couldn't help tugging on the invisibility cloak on his body, which became more and more unreliable, especially in front of little Snape.

It was impossible for him to stay with him until the sorting house. He still had his own mission to sneak into Hogwarts - after watching the sorting ceremony, he was ready to leave.

——Even if he had eaten, he was not too full, so these foods were still very tempting to him.

"We're starting to sort the house now, and whoever's name I read will sit up." Mag pointed to the four-corner stool in front of her.

Several sighs of sudden relief appeared on the new student's side, and Harry even heard a sound of suspicion from someone.

It was finally here, no matter how many times he had seen it in his memory, the scene still felt different—Harry felt more and more greedy.

But the price of greed, he was a bit unable to pay.

But they can see the sorting ceremony of their closest relatives, which has probably never been done before, right?

McGonagall began to read his name. There were not too many freshmen in this class, and each college might not be able to allocate fifteen students.

Sirius and Lily have higher surnames, so the two soon arrive, with Sirius at the front and Lily at the back.

"Another Black," someone laughed. "They're all Slytherins."

So it is conceivable that when they yelled Gryffindor the moment the sorting hat hit Sirius, these people were frightened and froze.

In fact, the audience fell silent——

Narcissa Black, who has always been restrained and calm, even stood up excitedly, while Bellatrix Black looked at Sirius with a triumphant smile in disbelief and screamed: "How is it possible?! Is there something wrong? Oh, how could my brother! How could he be a Gryffindor! Professor McGonagall, please put the sorting hat on him again—”

Sirius acted very chicly at this time, the headmaster, he walked towards the Gryffindor long table without hesitation, he took two or three steps, and the Gryffindor long table received sporadic applause , until he walked to the long table, and said angrily: "I said, I have been rejected by my sisters, are you still planning to welcome me?"

"Sirius!" Bella even wanted to rush over, but was stopped by Narcissa in the end.

Sirius sat down, and many people came back to their senses. Some people looked very suspicious. They didn't applaud until the next student was sorted into Gryffindor.

When McGonagall called out Lily's name, she let out a big breath, and whispered to Snape, "Then I'll go."

"Come on." Little Snape nodded at her.

Harry looked at his mother expectantly - even though he already knew the outcome.

As I remembered, the dirty and ugly Sorting Hat almost screamed when it touched Lily's fiery red hair: "Gryffindor!"

The cheers sounded from the long table in Gryffindor, but Lily didn't seem to hear it. The first person she saw was Snape, but she found that he was still distracted, which made the red-haired girl feel a little annoyed .

At this moment, little Snape finally turned his eyes to Lily, the girl's expression looked a bit complicated, little Snape nodded slightly towards her, wondering what the girl saw in this subtle movement, and then After coming down, she walked towards the Gryffindor table without hesitation.

When it was James' turn, the boy even walked up to Professor McGonagall on a catwalk, and saluted her mischievously, causing everyone in the auditorium to burst into laughter.

Harry grinned unconsciously when he watched his father's specially made antics. He had a hard time enduring it, but fortunately, James finally restrained himself after being glared at by McGonagall.

"Isn't this Potter in Slytherin?" Because of the lessons learned from Sirius, the current students will be cautious and watch the show when they guess.

Some surnames are actually very telling. For example, Blake, as long as it is stained with this surname, it is inseparable from pure blood. The whole family is Slytherin, such as Potter. Apart from Gryffindor, this family is Gryffindor Without exception.Now that there is something different in the Black family, the Potter family might also—

By the way, if such a thing happened to a pure-blood family like the Black family, there might be a good show when the owl comes tomorrow.When Harry heard someone say that, he really didn't expect Sirius to receive a Howler bomb the next day.

Fortunately, James still followed the rules, "Oh my God, it's a good thing I didn't enter Slytherin," he walked to Sirius's room, and amidst everyone's cheers and applause, he exaggeratedly said to Sirius, "With you One is enough."

"What nonsense?" Sirius said angrily. "That thing looks very authoritative. He said that I am Gryffindor, so I am Gryffindor. This has nothing to do with my surname or family."

At this time, James and Sirius were already in a relationship of shoulder to shoulder. At this time, he glanced at Lily, who was a little dazed, and said happily: "You are here too. It seems that we will be students in the same college in the future. We should take care of each other." Help."

Sirius' mouth was very stinky: "It's useless for you to talk to her, she is all about that little black wizard now, does she think he can enter Gryffindor?"

This time, Lily ignored him, because he had already arrived at Little Snape's sorting house.

Harry thought that little Snape's sorting would be as smooth and fast as he remembered, but little Snape sat on the chair for a long time without any results.

The position of the sorting hat on Snape's head was a little low, almost covering his eyes, and Harry couldn't see Snape's expression clearly.

Professor McGonagall also noticed, she quickly squeezed the peak of the sorting hat, but the hat broke free, "It's very difficult, very difficult, don't bother me, I will sort him properly..."

After the Sorting Hat finished saying that, it continued to wriggle endlessly, as if it was saying something to the boy, and finally, he screamed toward the auditorium: "Slytherin."

Harry's heart dropped.He watched little Snape walk slowly towards the long table in Slytherin, watched little Snape sit beside Lucius Malfoy, watched Malfoy pat little Snape Pu's shoulders.

—Even if the process is different, the result is still the same.

The results of the others were exactly the same as in memory, without any change.

Sirius, James, Lupine and Peter sat together. Lily looked a little disappointed, but she was quickly diverted because of the enthusiasm of the senior students next to her.

"Let me just say, that person is a Slytherin," Sirius said triumphantly, "Living in a group of Slytherins, you can always quickly tell which ones are born Slytherins."

Harry thought that if Sirius could control his mouth, he would not have been despised by his mother from the very beginning, and even in Lily's heart, the image of his father would have plummeted.

In fact, Harry didn't want to see the next branch house, but because the doors of the auditorium were closed, if he opened it secretly, it would be easy to be spotted.

He glanced at Dumbledore, who was 20 years younger, and found that apart from being more energetic, the old man's long white beard and his peculiar taste hadn't changed much.

If he could stay here for a year, maybe he could try to apply for the position of Defense Against the Dark Arts—anyway, this position changed every year, and it didn't stabilize from him until after Voldemort's death.

Can he really do nothing?

Sneaking into Hogwarts secretly, the biggest goal he set before was to rescue some books that had been lost, but he felt that he could find another task——

Like the Ravenclaw diadem.

If he remembered correctly, Voldemort should have placed the diadem in the Room of Requirement the night he returned to apply for the Defense Against the Dark Arts teaching position.If he had found and destroyed it, Voldemort wouldn't have known about it—

But there is only the crown, what about the other Horcruxes?

Voldemort has not disappeared for the first time, so his diary should still be in his hands. As for the Slytherin pendant and Hufflepuff's gold cup, Harry has no clue, but the Resurrection Stone can give it a try. ...

Harry's mind wandered to the far side, and if he'd killed most of someone's Horcruxes by this point, wouldn't it be easier to kill him.

Yes, it is very easy to think, but quite difficult to do.

Among other things, the fact that he cannot change history alone is enough to kill him instantly.

But Ravenclaw's crown was indirectly destroyed in his hands, so there should be no problem?

In fact, judging from Voldemort's control over his horcruxes, apart from knowing how to split his soul to make horcruxes, he knows little about horcruxes.

Harry didn't know much about Horcruxes, and Hermione was the one who was most familiar with them.

But judging from the later results, he can at least conclude several points-when the Horcrux is manufactured and stored in the "vessel", as long as the Horcrux does not produce its own consciousness, Voldemort cannot know the origin of the Horcrux. situation, unless he personally confirms it, and even if the Horcrux produces its own consciousness, he may not be able to communicate with him——

This means that even if he destroys one of the Horcruxes, as long as Voldemort does not suspect, he will not know that the Horcrux has been destroyed by him.

Horcruxes are indeed a kind of difficult thing to understand. He used to have a soul tablet on his forehead, except for one time he was controlled by Voldemort - when Voldemort paid a heavy price for that time, because the man could not touch his soul - - At other times, he didn't feel the presence of Voldemort, he was conscious, and the soul piece was not conscious, but he could still contact Voldemort's brain.

There is one thing Harry still doesn't quite understand. It was all good at first. For example, after Dumbledore destroyed the Resurrection Stone ring, Voldemort didn't have much doubt.

So when did Voldemort start to have doubts?

Can he find all the Horcruxes first and destroy them all?

Unknowingly, time passed quickly, everyone was full of food and drink, and everyone began to sing the school song at the kind invitation of Dumbledore.Harry knew his ordeal was finally over.

The youth flashed out when the doors of the Great Hall opened, and the whole castle was empty by this time, not even the ghosts - all the ghosts were inside the Great Hall having dinner with the students.Harry ran as fast as a fish in water, and soon reached the library floor.

The library door was locked at this time, but it didn't bother Harry, and he locked the door after he went in.

He stayed inside and quickly found many books that had been destroyed.

He put the list of books in his pocket, but didn't take it out. Fortunately, he had memorized a lot. He was very impressed with many titles. If he could copy them, he would copy them. Even if he couldn't take them out of this world, he would You can also copy it or something, anyway, he should have a lot of time in this world.

After leaving little Snape and Lily.

But after Harry had copied a dozen copies, he lost his patience - which seemed unfair to say, because he didn't lose his patience completely, but because his attention was basically not there.

Harry cheered up, but he soon found out that it was a bit difficult to do, because many books could not be duplicated. He just secretly used a weak light for illumination, but he couldn't see anything else clearly.

Footsteps were heard outside the library, Harry turned off the lights, hid in the corner holding his breath, and waited for the students outside to leave.

In the quiet and dark environment, Harry felt that his brain was particularly clear.

—Maybe you can really try it.

— but would you really dare to do that?he asked himself.

What if he had destroyed one of Voldemort's Horcruxes and found out?

The previous events have always proved that he wants to change history, but often history just turns a corner and returns to the original point.

It wasn't impossible, and in fact what he thought was impossible had finally happened.

Also, what is he going to use to destroy the Horcrux?Is the fire raging?How about he kill the basilisk first and pull out his fangs, so that the basilisk can't harm others, he can't save Myrtle, and even though he didn't have the basilisk in his second year Dead man, if this thing is awakened, will things get out of hand?

Wait, he can't use Parseltongue anymore...

Harry suddenly found that there were many difficulties in front of him. There were too many contradictions bothering him, and there were too many problems to be solved...

That's why he's having a hard time thinking about what to do in the future. In the past, he stayed in this time and space for too short a time and couldn't do anything. Now that he can stay here for at least a month, there are many things he can do. up.

Of course, he also wanted to kill Voldemort directly, and everyone lived happily together, with a happy ending.

In this time and space, everyone can be happy.

But is it really possible?

Easier said than done? !

Harry felt a little mad.

What should he do?Who can tell him! ! !

The author has something to say: This year is the year of birth... I am not suitable for marriage, but this year is double spring and leap month, it is definitely a good year for marriage.
