After everyone procrastinated and sang the school song that sounded quite tortured, the dinner officially ended, and the students who had traveled all day were going to go back to their dormitories to rest.

"Freshman of Gryffindor, follow me," the prefect of Gryffindor said to the newcomers, "I will take you back to your dormitory." There are only ten Gryffindor students this year. Come on, but it's better than Slytherin anyway, and the ratio of men to women is about the same.

When all the freshmen stood up in twos and threes and unconsciously lined up in a crooked line, James, who was talking to Sirius, suddenly stopped, and he saw Lily as if she was about to walk towards Slytherin with sharp eyes, "Lily , where are you going?" Rather than saying that he was asking questions, it would be better to say that he was stopping Lily's behavior.

Perhaps Lily didn't know how dangerous it was for a Muggle-born freshman to interact with Slytherin alone. Even if it was someone she knew a long time ago, the girl couldn't be so blatant.

James' words did stop Lily in her tracks, but because James didn't realize that his tone was a bit questioning, Lily was a little unhappy: "I'm going to have a word with Severus, no May I?"

"Don't be kidding," Sirius Xi walked half a step in front of her, "Not to mention that he didn't even look at you, have you seen the faces of those Slytherins? You really don't Are you worried that they will eat you?"

"Sirius..." James also had a strange expression on his face. His face clearly showed disdain for Slytherin, "Don't say such things to a lady."

"Sooner or later, she will know that Gryffindor and Slytherin will never be on the same page, they will always be against each other," Sirius said arrogantly, "This point will never change, otherwise, why do you think I entered Gryffindor? "

Lily was too lazy to talk to them, she looked at the black-haired boy standing at the end of the Slytherin freshman line not far away, and it happened that little Snape was also looking at her at this moment.Lily just stretched out one foot, but was pulled by someone.But at this time, she saw little Snape shaking his head slightly towards her.

At this time, Lily had no time to care about who was pulling her, and the reluctant smile on her face disappeared, while Sirius sneered and said, "What did I just say?" , This is a natural Slytherin, obviously that little dark wizard adapted to the rules here faster than you."

There was a sneer at the corner of Sirius' mouth, but it was hard to tell what he was thinking from his expression, only James looked at him disapprovingly, but said nothing.

Some words, not only listen to the literal meaning.

Just like Sirius, even if you are familiar with him, you may never understand whether he is mocking Snape or the family of Slytherins after the surname Black.

Obviously, Lily, who has no experience in pure-blood family struggles, will not understand——

"That has nothing to do with you, right?" Lily said to Sirius angrily, but what he got was that Sirius spread his hands and looked indifferent.

"Lily," a girl with slightly brown curly hair who was a Gryffindor freshman just like Lily took her hand, "Don't be as knowledgeable as these boys, aren't you tired, we have to go back to the dormitory quickly. "

At this moment, the prefect had assembled the Gryffindor freshmen, and everyone was bustling towards the gate.

"Mr. Potter, did you hear? This lady said that it has nothing to do with us. It seems that we are indeed being sentimental." Sirius said lazily with his arms around James' shoulders.

James shrugged. "Shall we talk about something else, Mr. Black?"

"Like at least you won't let the Potter family down? How about a bet, I'll receive the roaring letter from my family tomorrow. Of course Sissy and Bella will tell them immediately." Sirius laughed at himself.

James: "..."

As soon as he finished speaking, there were really two Slytherins blocking the front of the freshman line, because these two girls were obviously looking for Sirius Black, so the prefect didn't want to cause trouble at all.

As for Sirius Black, they have not been able to determine the role of this person. Although the Sorting Hat seems unreliable, it can never go wrong, right?

"Save me a bed." Sirius yelled at James before being forcibly taken away.

After Sirius was taken away, Lily suddenly asked James nonsensically, "Is your surname really Potter?"

"It's true." James said subconsciously, and then he suddenly realized that the boy opened his eyes with black pupils, looking puzzled and shocked, and more, hurt—— "Did you just know now? Why do you ask?"

"And do you know Harry Potter?"

"Who is that?" James hadn't reacted yet.

"You guys look a bit like that," Lily finally looked at James, and she copied the man's facial features for a long time. Although the outline was a bit different, the facial features of this man did have Harry's shadow, "It's just...you really don't know Is it? He was shopping for wands with us that day."

"That person? Harry?" When it comes to buying a wand, James also has a little impression. He once contacted him in order to know the girl's information, but unfortunately he didn't get anything in the end, and was... "His surname is Potter?"

Then he remembered, because he was excited at that time, so he didn't introduce his surname to Lily at all, and the point is, he never discovered this fact afterwards, and the Harry who "kind of resembles" him, It seems that he never said his last name.

But even if he found out now, it would be too late. Anyway, they had already entered Hogwarts to start studying, and they would not be able to contact the outside world for at least several months, let alone "Harry Potter".

But, are they like it?Why doesn't he think so.In the end, James still didn't say this sentence.

"Probably the same surname? The surname Potter is not uncommon." Of course, their family is the most famous in the wizarding world. "Maybe our distant relatives. In fact, if we knew each other, my parents would be there that day." In time, you will recognize him."

Lily's expression was still puzzled, her eyes unconsciously fell on this man's hair, Harry's hair was always like a bird's nest, no matter how you looked at it, it was very similar to this James Potter's hair.Are they really not relatives?

With such doubts, Lily followed the large group to the common room in the Gryffindor tower.Maybe she could ask Harry the next time she saw her, even though Harry didn't seem to know the Potter family at all, she always felt something was weird.

When the female prefect of Gryffindor led them to the girls' dormitory, the brown-haired girl suddenly said to Lily: "Actually, they are right. My parents said that if I were a Gryffindor, I would better Don't have anything to do with Slytherin, the two houses are deadly rivals, I've heard that Slytherin doesn't care about Muggle-born wizards, and they even say some ugly words to insult people," she said. After a pause, he concluded, "Anyway, if you can't talk to them, don't. There are so many people in Gryffindor, we can definitely become good friends."

Lily pursed her lips and whispered, "I don't believe Severus would do that."

This time, she really believed in little Snape.

New term, new atmosphere.

From the chaos in the first few days, before they could fully enter the learning atmosphere, to the gradual adaptation after a week, the new school year at Hogwarts was finally on the right track.

In the past, idiots and rookies were always synonymous with first-year freshmen, but this year, several children broke the inherent impression of first-year Xiaodouding in senior years.

The first one is that Sirius was born in the Black family but entered Gryffindor. On the first day of school, he received a roaring letter, which made the students who were already very curious about Sirius quite addicted. Of course, pure blood The family also has such advantages, Sirius is very smart, he can learn quickly, but all the teachers are quite a headache for him.

The second one is James, this guy has already huddled with Sirius on the first day of school, he is bright and cheerful, he doesn't seem to care about the first grade courses, he does everything very well, but the same , His speed of gaining points is almost equal to the speed of his deduction of points, and his ability to cause trouble is almost as good as that of Sirius.

Both of the above two are Gryffindors. James is indeed very capable of learning, but there is one person who is almost unanimously appreciated by all the professors. "Outstanding" to describe his magical talent, and his performance in potions class is enough to kill all other students.

But Zuizui is not the above three, but Lily, the red-haired girl from Gryffindor. Evans is a completely unfamiliar surname, basically no one has heard of this surname in the wizarding world, and she I also admitted that she was born as a Muggle, but her ability is no less than that of any child born in a magical family.

Of course, we can't say that they became popular figures in the eyes of others as soon as they entered school, but obviously they have already occupied everyone's attention quite quickly.

Of course, everyone, including Harry.

Harry didn't actually stay at Hogwarts all the time. On the night of sorting, the last place he went was the Room of Requirement, but instead of looking for the Ravenclaw diadem, he went to sleep.

He didn't wake up until the next afternoon. Originally, he wanted to stay in Hogwarts, but in the end he decided to go back to Cokeworth.Although little Snape already knew that he had watched the whole sorting ceremony, maybe the boy would send the letter to the Evans' house with Lily.

Sure enough, when he went to Evans' house in the afternoon, his grandmother was reading a piece of paper, and when she saw him, she asked him to read it together, and then took out another envelope and handed it to him.

Harry glanced at Lily's letter, and what she wrote was consistent with what she had experienced, "Don't worry, I believe she will be fine there, because her level is already very good, if you want to write back to her, just use ..." He glanced at the owl standing on the coat rack. "That owl is wonderful. You tie the letter to its foot and it will bring the letter back to Lily."

"But Lily said that she and Severus are not in the same academy." Mrs. Evans was obviously worried.

"Lily has a very good personality, and everyone will like him." Harry said without burden.

"How can I not worry," Mrs. Evans sighed, "I regret letting her go so far away for so long."

Compared to Mrs. Evans, Harry felt a little heartless.

After saying goodbye to Mrs. Evans, Harry returned to his home.

He looked at Snape's envelope, and suddenly felt a little reluctant to open it.

☆☆☆

The next day, Harry went straight to Hogsmeade with Cokeworth Apparating, where he planned to sneak into the school through the passage leading to Hogwarts.However, because he woke up relatively late, it was almost four o'clock in the afternoon when he arrived in Hogsmeade.

Harry, sitting in the three broomsticks and drinking butterbeer, belched.

He still has a lot of things to do.

Harry was thinking about how he would not be discovered by the people in Hogwarts, but if he broke into Hogwarts too frequently, Dumbledore would definitely be alerted.He would never say anything to Dumbledore until he had figured out exactly what to do.

If he had been in the Room of Requirement, would Dumbledore have found out?

Truth be told, Harry hadn't really figured out what to do, but he had things in his mind that he had to do, and anyway, he could do as much as he could with the time left—

Harry has been observing the hourglass on his neck these days, and he found that the hourglass is particularly slow this time. When he stayed here for a month before, that speed seemed to be twice as fast as this time. If so If not, he may have to stay here for two full months.

The time is indeed getting longer and longer.

Harry suddenly realized a serious problem.

If he really stays here for two months this time, then the next time will definitely be more than this time. It can even be said that the two months of summer vacation are not enough at all. , Maybe he could come to Hogwarts to apply for teaching or something, but at that time he didn't think that if he wanted to come here, the summer vacation would not be enough.

——I can’t tell Minerva, can I save up my summer vacation?I don't have a vacation for three years, you let me take half a year at a time, right?

Next time, this problem will have to be solved.But now, there is at least a month before he leaves this world.

Harry put the question to the back of his mind and focused on accomplishing the goals he had set for himself.

Young people enter Hogwarts every day, how can they not know about Hogwarts.

In fact, Harry knows the performance of Snape, Lily, James Sirius and others. He has been wearing his invisibility cloak to sneak into Hogwarts back and forth these days, so for these people I know where it is.

——Fortunately, Dumbledore doesn't seem to have discovered such a big problem with him.

For example, Lupine and Peter Pettigrew have been incorporated into the small team of James and Sirius. For example, Lily and Sirius are indifferent to each other. For example, these days, little Snape seems to be looking for something intentionally or unintentionally.

But Harry never appeared in front of them.

But then the young man realized that the act of completely disappearing did not seem to be a good answer, so he used an owl to deliver a letter to young Snape.The content of the letter was extremely simple, it just asked him to study hard, and basically didn't mention a word of other things.

Harry planned to send a separate letter to Lily and young Snape before he left, so that at least the two children would not be sad to lose news of him even if he hadn't seen him for a few years.

"Do we have to meet like this?"

Little Snape and Lily made an appointment that day in a hidden corner outside the castle. At this moment, Lily's face was full of incomprehension.Because the two were in different schools, when she wanted to talk to Snape, she was either rejected by him shaking her head or being dragged away by her classmates, so they really alienated a lot these days.

No, no, it should be said that they never talked alone at all, and when they did more, it was still when they communicated in Potions class.

If it wasn't for Harry this time, maybe they would have cut off communication altogether.

There was no expression on Little Snape's face, and his tone was very flat. "The atmosphere in our house is tense, they don't like Gryffindors."

Lily became angry when she heard it, "So you don't like me either?"

Little Snape shook his head, "It's not like that, it's just that place..." He pursed his lips, "It's not an easy place to get along with."

"Why?" Lily said incomprehensibly. These days, she is indeed living well in Gryffindor. There are many senior students who are willing to actively help the younger students. There is no difficulty at all. Get along, is Slytherin really so painful?

Little Snape shook his head, unwilling to say more, "Did Harry write to you?"

"Did you write him a letter?" Lily asked back.

Little Snape nodded hesitantly, "But he didn't reply...he only replied one letter." At the end of his speech, his words had the taste of gnashing his teeth.

"Me too." Lily said, "Maybe he's really busy." She often hears from her parents.

"We seem to have lost touch with him," said little Snape a little unhappy, "he won't be leaving, will he?"

Lily thought for a while: "He said that he will say goodbye to me when he leaves, and he will definitely say goodbye to you."

That wasn't what young Snape wanted to hear, he didn't want Harry to leave.

Someone's only concern was whether the young man would still sneak into Hogwarts, or stay at Hogwarts at all.

But this time, he didn't even see the hem of his clothes.

The huge castle always made him a little bit powerless.It would be nice if it was a train compartment.

Little Snape knew it was wrong to break into Hogwarts, but he still couldn't help but think——

Harry got in that day, but it seemed the headmaster didn't notice, because they didn't hear anything after that day.This shows that it is not very difficult (?) for him to come in.

Young Snape did hope so, until he got the farewell letter from Harry.

This time, Lily ran to Snape almost without hesitation. Fortunately, at this time, there were no other Slytherins beside the boy.

"Have you seen it?" Lily shook the letter in her hand panting, "Harry said that he will be away for a long time due to work, and the return date is uncertain."

Little Snape was holding the letter in a daze, with an expression of disbelief still on his face.

"Severus? Severus?" Lily called out several times before he seemed to come back to himself.

"Do you think we can still meet him?" said little Snape in a low voice.

Lily was stunned, "Don't be stupid, we can't get out at all."

"He can come in." Little Snape's voice trailed off.

Lily still heard this sentence, she patted little Snape on the shoulder, "How is it possible, no one can enter Hogwarts without permission. I know you want to see him, and I want to see him too, But he also made it very clear that in the future...we will still meet. "

Little Snape didn't speak, but Lily felt that his expression looked like he wanted to cry.

Lily also felt that her eye sockets were heating up.

"He will come back," Lily said to Snape in the end. This was not to convince the other party, but to convince herself, because Snape's expression made her feel that they might never see the young man again. , "Don't do this."

On this day, little Snape's performance in class was unprecedentedly abnormal, and in the next few days, his mood was as low as usual for a long time, which surprised many people.Although Slytherin's rising gems did not decrease, the bonus points also began to slow down.

Although Slytherins are all arrogant people, this is still a place where strength speaks. Little Snape's dazzling performance before made others jealous. He left people with a kind of "this man His background is not very good, but he must not be underestimated", so no one made irresponsible remarks about him.

It's just that the depression that has been lingering on the black-haired boy can't go away.

Harry actually noticed that the letter was written to the two when he saw that the hourglass had almost bottomed out, but he had stayed in this world for several days and hadn't left yet. Of course he also saw little Snape watching Doesn't sound like a great performance.

Seeing such a situation, Harry actually felt very uncomfortable, but he felt that he should be ruthless.

In fact, this kind of parting was what little Snape had to go through, because he couldn't stay here forever, and after leaving for several years, it should be his influence on little Snape.

Would it be better to even slowly alienate them?

The author has something to say: I found a Weibo: Ms. Rowling’s evaluation of Sirius in the interview is that he is a man who goes his own way regardless of the consequences, and is also a typical case of becoming rebellious after being hindered in his growth.Likewise, she said, Sirius was brave, loyal, reckless, and suffered a lifetime of suffering from his imprisonment in Azkaban.

When I wrote it, I was a little worried that I would hack him, but in fact, sometimes what they do is more secondary and excessive, but as Rowling said, they still hate black magic, and their three views are basically correct.

This chapter is very stuck...

ps: This article is not without cheats. My cheats belong to the type where the first half is foreshadowing, and the second half will be very cool (?)...
