[Comprehensive System] Sieve Completion Action

Color setting, comfortable and comfortable, the days when you don't need to bow your head are gone.

Shao Nian calmed down.There was still a long lingering smoke outside the window, covering the dark river.

By the way, this is the Thames River.The last time I came to London was a hundred years ago. At that time, there was the same smog, and the river water at that time was also so dirty and muddy.

Snape fake cast a few air purification spells with wandless magic, and took a few deep breaths.That's right, he can't be influenced by his emotions, can't think about what he wants, and has to focus on what he wants to do.

What happened last night gave him a new understanding of his substitute career.Shao Nian felt that he had to re-examine this mission. He still knew too little about Snape himself.

If it was Snape, was he ecstatic when faced with Voldemort's affirmation?If it was Snape, did he feel reluctant when he knelt down to Voldemort and kissed the cape of his robe?If it was Snape, wouldn't there be a slight resentment towards the Death Eaters who showed genuine affection or false favors?If it was Snape, when he tortured and killed Muggles with his companions, would he feel disgust or pleasure?

He has no idea.He doesn't know him at all.After reviewing the plot in the book many times, all he knew was Snape who had become a potions professor, who used a poisonous tongue, calm, arrogant, and stubborn to disguise himself, but only Snape who redeemed himself was left in his heart.

What about young Snape?What about Snape who is hovering at the crossroads of his life?

There were so many chaotic ceremonies yesterday, and the time was very short, there was no need for him to do anything or express anything.But after today, he will still be active with the Death Eaters for a long time. If his state of mind is wrong, he will not be able to become the core and not be reused. If it is serious, he may be directly executed as a traitor.

He's going to last until the day Voldemort falls for the first time, and before that day, he's going to play a death eater through and through.

A death eater through and through.

The question is, which one?

There are many kinds of Death Eaters, there are fanatical pure-blood followers like Bella, there are thugs like Greyback who only vent violence, there are old and cunning speculators like Lucius, and there are pettigrets like Peter The coward who follows out of fear.

What about Snape?What does he want?Shao Nian found that he could not understand, nor could he empathize.He himself had no worries about food and clothing since he was a child, and he didn't suffer any grievances. He didn't care if his parents ignored him, and he thought that children of the same age were all idiots.

He seemed to have a lot since he was a child, but he didn't take it to heart.Snape had so little and wanted so much.

And he thought that Voldemort could give him those things.

Belonging, recognition, honor, companionship, strength...

But it's all fake.

This kind of falsity can confuse many people, and it cannot be discerned by wisdom alone.

Shao Nian calmed down and tried to extract useful information from his poor knowledge base, fanaticism, incitement, brainwashing, fascism, red soldiers, pyramid schemes, cults... find all the information that can be compared and referenced...

This is the first time for him to seriously prepare for a mission, try to figure out the characters, and deal with various possible situations.While thinking, he cleaned the wound, applied medicine, changed his clothes, and then prepared to go to work.

The reality was cruel, even if he didn't sleep all night, Snape still had to go to work.

It took two years for Snape to get a position at Hogwarts and join the ranks of the people's teachers. As for the Death Eaters, it was just a part-time job, and he did voluntary labor without paying, and sometimes even paid for it.

Two robes were reimbursed yesterday, and the wand was also broken. Whether it was repaired or bought a new one, it was a huge expense, and a lot of the stored potions were also consumed.

Snape? False reached for the jar of Floo powder, not daring to Apparate without his wand.With a flash of green flames, he came to the Leaky Cauldron. There were very few customers in the bar in the morning, so Snape went directly to the entrance of Diagon Alley in the backyard.

At this point he was still early for work, and his first destination was the wand shop.

Ollivander is a time-honored brand that is well-known throughout Europe. Like other students at Hogwarts, Snape's wand was also bought here.He entered the cramped, cramped store full of wand boxes, which Mr. Ollivander had just opened and had not yet dozed off behind the counter.

Compared with the turnover of Snape's potions shop, Ollivander's wand business was almost non-existent.Although it hasn't been opened for half a year, and it takes half a year to open, it is conceivable how low the shipment volume is for items such as magic wands that will be used for years, decades, or even a lifetime once bought.

Every year, the swarms of young wizards preparing to enter school accounted for almost half of the business.Besides, it was the unlucky guy like Snape who lost his wand by accident.Wizarding is a high-risk profession, but the total number of people is not large after all. In addition, Ollivander's wand is of excellent quality and fits perfectly with the owner, so changing the wand is a small probability event.

Given that there is no need to sell too many wands in a year, Ollivander, a master wand maker, spends most of his time looking at the store in boredom.

Seeing Snape come in, Ollivander's silvery eyes looked pleased at first, then turned sad, "Mr. Snape, sandalwood, twelve and three quarters long... oh no... ..."

As soon as Snape Pseudo took out the broken wand, the old master wand maker lamented, stretched out his hand to caress the broken wand, his face was full of reluctance and sadness.

"Mr. Ollivander, can this wand be repaired?"

Like a mother who lost a child, Ollivander shook her head in grief, "It can't be repaired, it's completely broken."

"Then please help me choose another one."

"This wand has been with you for seven years, it must be very emotional, don't be too sad." Ollivander advised.But he misunderstood the cause of the other party's pain. Snape? Pseudo didn't have any feelings for this wand brother who died gloriously in just one day, but felt a strong reluctance for the soon-to-be-lost Galleon in his pocket.

Hearing that someone wanted to buy a new wand, Ollivander's measuring tape was eager to try on the table, until Ollivander nodded and said, "I measured it seven years ago, and now I need to measure it again." The measuring tape volunteered to meet it, I measured my arms, arms, palms, fingers, and all the energy, and finally didn't miss the height and head circumference.

Ollivander thought for a moment. "Well, it's this one. It's unmistakable. Birch, thirteen and one-half inches long, unicorn hair."

Snape took the wand and said a few incantations. This wand feels very smooth to use.Picking and picking is not allowed in Ollivander's shop. Mr. Ollivander's purpose is that it is the wand that chooses the wizard.

"how much is it?"

"Eleven Galleons."

Snape? Fake's heart was throbbing.All the belongings I saved after working for a few months were gone.

☆、[HP] met

Snape poured out all the coins in his pocket. There were ten Galleons in gold and Sickles in twenty silver. According to this weird exchange ratio of 1:17, which was completely like exercising the calculation ability of wizards, he could still get Return 3 Silver Sickles.

Three Sickles of silver, and five or six Knuts, was all he had now.

Snape? False was very sad, how did he live a poorer life than the original owner, for a person who had never been poor, he had no idea how to live frugally.

It seems that I have to learn how to be poor from scratch.

Of course, starving to death is not enough.Among the exchange items that Master Lingfei sent him was an emergency kit, which contained a complete set of food, medicine, clothes, tools, and some hard metals, but he planned to use it only in life-threatening emergencies.

After leaving Ollivander's wand shop, he walked to the potion shop where he worked.Menfflet Pharmacy Store is an old store in Diagon Alley, selling most of the legal potions, from the simplest cough potions, hair dyes, to complex transfiguration potions, the rare Felicia.

Difficult potions are purchased from well-known potion masters (such as Professor Slughorn). Ordinary pharmacists like Snape make some simple potions, which are always available in regular pharmacies and rarely used. Advance order is required.

Compared to the Black Magic Pharmacy in Knockturn Alley, the job looked like a real deal.This was Lucius' suggestion. He felt that Snape needed to have a beautiful and unblemished resume, so that he could respond to Voldemort's strategic goals and sneak into Hogwarts.

Since the main components of the Death Eaters are hysterical lunatics, ignorant fools, and pure-bloods who disdain to teach mixed-blood mudbloods, Snape, who has excellent grades and talent for potions, is the most promising among them. Gwartz was a teacher.

Snape flipped through the memo and found the information of the store owner, old Frans Menfollette. After finding out that old Frans was a chubby, kind-hearted man, he decided to apply to the store owner for this month's salary advance. Half - 25 galleons, eating and drinking is no problem.

As soon as Snape reached the door of the potions shop, he saw two wizards, a man and a woman, coming out facing each other.

A thin face with short messy black hair.One with fiery red hair and emerald green eyes.

He froze, James Potter and Lily Evans?No, it was already Lily Potter at this time.Lily and James got married shortly after graduation. Of course, Snape, who had broken up with Lily long ago and swore against James, was not on the guest list.

Snape hurriedly flipped through the information in the memo and confirmed the identities of these two people, but he also inadvertently blocked the way for the Potters to come out after a short delay in searching the information.

"Hey, don't get in the way, snot..." In the middle of speaking, James was stabbed in the ribs by Lily's elbow knife, and took back his habitual insulting nickname.

There was a hint of sadness in Lily's green eyes, but she quickly hid it, and she nodded nonchalantly. "Sorry, please make way."

Snape? Unexpectedly, this dog-blooded encounter would be so calm and ordinary. Every encounter in the student days began with verbal confrontation, climaxed with the chaos of magic, and ended with Lily or a certain teacher's roar to stop it.Of course, the epilogue may also include a consoling conversation between Snape and Lily. For example, that time, Snape, whose self-esteem was injured, scolded that mudblood, which made Lily leave in anger.

In the last two years of Hogwarts, this kind of conflict gradually became less, perhaps because the relationship between James and Lily improved, but Snape broke up with Lily, so James no longer had to feel jealous towards Snape; Perhaps it was because James took the initiative to restrain his violent and arrogant temper under Lily's discipline.

So what about this time?What should he do when he meets a husband who is true love and true love?

Shao Nian quickly analyzed it.Snape was stubborn and arrogant, and it was absolutely impossible for him to bow his head in a good manner.But he is also a person with strong self-control, and he will not cause troubles in the place where he works, resulting in losing his job.

After quickly judging what he should do, Snape faked a little way out of the way, squeezed out a few words dryly, and said with a mocking smile, "I forgot to wish you two a happy wedding and honeymoon." Lily pursed her lips, then raised her head proudly, and savagely pulled her husband away, who wanted to fight back.

Snape looked at the backs of the two leaving, and a few words drifted into his ears. "But Lily, I bet he's a Death Eater now!" "Dueling in Diagon Alley to get caught by the Law Enforcement Department? What did Dumbledore tell us?" "Sorry, I won't do it next time." will be impulsive."

Why, there is no rival in love, he still loves you after meeting you still remember his bloody lines?

It turned out that he didn't even have the qualifications to be a rival in love.No love, jealousy, entanglement, just a complete parting of ways.

It is impossible to be friends if the three views are different.

【"I can't pretend anymore, you chose your way, I chose mine."

"No—listen to me, I didn't mean to—"

"—Call me a Mudblood? But you call anyone of my origin a Mudblood, Severus. How am I any different?"

Lily glanced at him contemptuously, turned around and crawled back from the portrait hole...]

Shao Nian thought it was very subtle. According to his memory, it was possible that Snape was with Lily.But when it was possible to fight for it, he knew Lily's position, but chose to be a Death Eater.But later, because Lily's life was threatened, he betrayed Voldemort without hesitation.

Comparing the two, Shao Nian felt that in these few choices, love should not be everything.There is also a process in which a teenager gradually matures and the three views gradually form.

He reminded himself once again that although the face he saw in the mirror looked very gloomy and old-looking, in fact Snape, who just graduated, was only 18 years old, equivalent to the age when he just graduated from high school and entered university. The impulsive age is also the age where it is easy to go astray.

As for Shao Nian himself, he lived in the first two missions for a year respectively, and he is also 18 years old now.But he doesn't like this algorithm. After doing too many tasks, wouldn't it add up to decades or hundreds of years?Isn't Master Lingfei an old monster who is thousands of years old?

Snape? Pseudo walked into the shop, greeted the teller, and walked into the potion making room at the back of the shop.

The potion production facilities here are very complete, large and small crucibles, neat materials, look pleasing to the eye.With Snape's current financial strength, he still can't afford a decent potion room at home. Therefore, his job is not only to maintain his life, but also a great opportunity for him to hone his skills.

He looked at today's production list, and there was only a dozen hair tonics with a specific formula, which were orders from regular customers.The production of this potion is not difficult, especially for Snape Puppet who has inherited the peak level of potion master. He chopped up the beard of goblins neatly, and accurately weighed the powder made from mermaid scales. , adjust the flame, and stir flexibly.

An hour later, the hair growth potion was finished.

The chubby and friendly store owner, old Frans, came in to check on the potion when it was almost finished, and exclaimed when he saw the finished potion, "It's perfect! Severus, you are the most talented trainee pharmacist I've ever seen, Fernando that Picky old guy, I'm sure I won't be able to find any faults when I receive the goods this time."

After Snape thanked him for his compliment, he took the opportunity to make his own request, "Shop Manager, I have a request. I hope to advance this month's salary."

The potion was cooled with a spell and bottled. Old Frans was already arranging for the clerk to deliver the goods. Hearing Snape's request, he turned his head and asked with some concern, "Sev, have you encountered any difficulties? "

Snape falsely nodded, "Something happened and the wand broke."

He showed old Frans his new wand, and heard the other party say, "You have Professor Slughorn's recommendation and guarantee, and you have performed well these days at work, so there is no problem with such trivial matters as salary advances." .only……"

Just what?

But Frans didn't make excuses to avoid sending money, as he expected.Instead, he quickly took out a bag of gold coins from his pocket, "Here are fifty gold Galleons, your salary for this month."

The entire salary was better than what he asked for. "Thank you, Mr. Menfollette."

Frans looked at him with a kind smile, "I don't know how long this store can last, so I can only give you an advance payment for this month."

Snape took the purse, "Why did you close the shop? Isn't the business still good?"

Frans shook his head, and said in a tone that pretended to be relaxed but couldn't hide his helplessness, "I'm old, since I've saved some money, let's find a comfortable place to enjoy myself."

Snape? Pseudo sensed the bitterness in the old man's words.Was it threatened by Death Eaters?Is it to ask him to surrender, or to extort protection money?Or ask him to distance himself from Dumbledore's men, and even poison the potions he sells to them?

Many possibilities flashed through Snape's mind.As the owner of the potion shop for many years, even though Frans was delayed by miscellaneous things and rarely made potions himself, since he was responsible for appraising the quality of each product, he must be an excellent potion master himself.

Voldemort expanded his power everywhere, absorbed his followers, those who followed him prospered, those who opposed him perished, and a person like Old Frans, who had a wide network and superb skills, was naturally not immune.

He didn't ask, because old Frans certainly wouldn't give in.He wouldn't tell Snape that he hated Voldemort's intimidation any more than Snape would confess to his employer that he was a Death Eater.

The identity of the Death Eaters is kept secret, and no one knows who to trust and who to guard against.

This is the horror of this era.

Snape found that his thoughts were empty and he didn't know how to continue the conversation. Old Frans seemed to see his predicament, and he smiled and said in relief, "If you don't work for a full month this month, the extra days Let's make up for it. You don't have to worry about work, the old lizard monster in Knockturn Alley can't wait to poach people."

Snape flipped through the memo. The old lizard monster was just a nickname. He was the owner of a pharmacy shop in Knockturn Alley, and he and old France had been friends for many years.

He didn't answer the question, but asked, "Then what will the customers in the store do then?"

Old France laughed and teased, "I believe they can still live well without some potions to drive away the velvet, change the color of the eyeballs, or cure the owl's hiccups."

"So, Mr. Menfrett is finally planning to give up those boring businesses and do something truly meaningful?"

A cool and pleasant voice sounded by the door, but old Frans' expression seemed to have met a troll.

The author has something to say: Refer to the salary of Lihen Wizard Bookstore Assistant (Daily Prophet) is 42 Galleons per month, as a trainee pharmacist who just graduated, give Snape a salary of 50 Galleons.

The salary of the striker (Daily Prophet) of the Law Enforcement Department of the Ministry of Magic is 700 Galleons per month, and I think the salary of the teaching position at Hogwarts should not be too low, although it includes food and housing.

Speaking of the price of wands, I always feel that wands are a bit cheap.
