HP's Wretched

Snape looked at the sea not far away that was shrouded in night in shock, and only then did he realize that this time, the apparition had almost crossed half of the UK.

"Shocked, I was also surprised when I came here for the first time two days ago." Flotte, who had just come out of the secret passage, was thoroughly blown by the cold wind blowing in front of her, and she warmed up by brushing the fur on her body. .She walked slowly to Snape's side and continued to explain, "This place is protected by a huge barrier, and anyone can only enter and exit through the secret passage."

Hearing this, Snape turned his head to look at the entrance of the secret passage, but it was gone long ago and turned into the original stone wall.The secret of the Luster family is indeed an eye-opener.

There are several cargo ships docked on the sea not far away. The walls of the ships look extraordinarily cold under the moonlight, and the huge hulls are bobbing up and down with the waves. Open your mouth.Flotte on the side was not in a hurry, and watched the scenery quietly with Snape.

"Everyone thinks that the Luster family only has a train business on land, but they never thought they were also engaged in smuggling by sea." Snape finally said.

"That's right, those freighters are indeed the shipping line of the Luster family. And this business line has not been approved by the Ministry of Magic." Flott admitted without refusing anything.

"Then you really trust me. Since it is smuggled and kept from the Ministry of Magic, the Dark Lord probably doesn't know the secret, right?"

"The Dark Lord really doesn't know. As you can see, the Luster family hides this secret very deeply. Even I, a married outsider, was allowed to know because of that accident." If it wasn't for Diz Lyle turned into a squib, how could she be allowed in here, even if the authentic wedding ring is opened, it is a newly added magic circle.

"It seems that the Luster family is really 'loyal' as Death Eaters."

Flott was not in a hurry to refute Snape's eccentric tone, but said with a smile: "Then your loyalty can be regarded as 'a lesson from the sun and the moon', not only turning Dezrael into a squib Keeping things secret, you will definitely not tell your Highness about the smuggling business line, after all, the oath to enter the door is not white-haired."

"Oh, then you can rest assured of this oath, there are countless ways to reveal the secret in this world."

"I don't just believe in oaths, I also believe in human greed. As you can see, I believe you have already thought about what benefits the Luster family will give you. I don't think you risked your life to reveal the Luster family's Secret, the benefits that the Dark Lord can give you can be higher than these." Flott pointed confidently at a freighter in front of her.

"You mean my hush money is a freighter?" Snape looked in the direction Flott pointed.

"Don't underestimate this ship. The foundation of the Luster family is only five ships. With this one, you can go to the world to buy and sell things. The magic circle on it can't be tracked by the Ministry of Magic, and this The people who sailed, transported, traded, and received people from all over the place were Muggles controlled by Luster's family magic, and it was impossible to reveal any information to the wizarding world."

Snape suddenly thought of something, chuckled and said, "Now I finally know why the Luster family insisted on marrying Buford."

Flott raised her eyebrows and looked at Snape, the bat was not as dull as it looked.

"No matter how much money the Luster family earns from this cargo line, they are shameless. Why not go to other countries to buy some high-end medicinal materials and work with the Buford family to make potions and sell them, and the money will be laundered." It's clean."

"That's true, but it's a pity, my father may not know that there is such a smuggling business line, and he is so happy to be used as a tool for money laundering by others, heh." Flotte said mockingly.

"Since this ship is so important, why are you willing to pay me for it?" Snape asked the question he had been thinking all along.

"The price of this ship is really more than just hush money."

"Oh?"

"I heard from my husband that you modified the Death Eater's mark?"

"Why, you feel that your arm is empty, and you want me to make a mark for you." It was the same Snape-style mocking sentence.

"You know exactly what we want."

"Forging the Dark Mark, if His Highness finds out about it, I will die with this freighter." Snape said in a low tone.

"If you don't report it, I don't think your Highness will spare you either. Instead of lying to him once, it's better to do it again. What's more, the Potion Master's election is just around the corner. Although you have the escort of the Dark Lord, Wouldn’t it be even more powerful with high-grade medicinal materials?”

Snape was not talking, but quietly frowned and thought. Flott's words were indeed reasonable. The Potions Master's election was imminent, and the Dark Lord had also said that he must win the election. Honor, although he has a high level of confidence in his potion technology, the works made with high-grade materials are indeed more effective, but...he doesn't want to betray His Highness anymore. Could it be that his loyalty can't stand the test?

Flott looked at Snape's silence and was not in a hurry. Snape's ambition was not small. His purpose of joining the Death Eaters was nothing more than to reach a high position, but the mysterious man was the fearsome Dark Lord. To put it bluntly, he is nothing more than a highly wanted criminal from the Ministry of Magic, and he has the huge obstacle of the Order of the Phoenix, so it is impossible for him to be able to do everything.But the wealth brought by this freighter is different. Money can buy anything you want. Almost no one doesn't like money. If Snape wants to go higher, the potion materials in his hand need money, and the people around him Officials need money to manage, so he will never make life difficult for money.

"My forged Death Eater mark can only fulfill the function of summoning." Snape weighed for a long time and finally spoke, he admitted that he was indeed attracted by this business line.

Seeing that Snape agreed, Flotte's eyes lit up, the first step of cooperation went smoothly, and the following private cooperation may not be difficult, but the private cooperation will have to wait a while, it's not good to startle the snake.So Flotte quickly answered the question: "This one function is enough. What's more, can this fake one be eliminated?"

"Yes, because it's not the Dark Lord who casts spells, so the effectiveness is not high. But after all, black magic is in direct contact with the skin, so even if it is eliminated, it may leave some ugly marks."

Flotte curled her lips, opened her sleeves and looked at her arms, which were thin and tender. If there were some ugly marks left, she might have to wear long sleeves.

Seeing Flott's hesitant action, Snape couldn't help laughing, it's a stupid word, there is nothing in this world that doesn't pay the price, he thought this troublemaker knew this.

Flott heard Snape on the side laughing, and gave him a dissatisfied look.

"Why, are you afraid? Madam just now has a face full of fearlessness, the courage to sacrifice for her husband's family was blown away by the wind?"

"Who said I'm scared." Flotte rolled up her sleeves again, and the sea breeze made her skin get goosebumps.Flott handed Snape her arm, and said with a forced calm, "Come on."

Snape held Flott's wrist, took out his wand and imprinted it on Flott's arm, but he didn't cast a spell, but asked: "With your ability, you can take the child far away and leave here , The Dark Lord is not interested in useless women and children, so why stay and work for your husband, don't tell me that you two are in a good relationship."

"Heh." Flotte sneered when she heard the last sentence, "If I say I'm not willing, will you despise me?"

"What are you not willing to do?"

"Everything on the sea and all the freight routes on land should belong to me and my son. Why should I marry into the Luster family instead of Orion? I want to hide. I am not a good virgin, I want to get everything I deserve!" Flotte's voice was extraordinarily calm, but the words were ambitious.

Snape said sarcastically: "It's true that people die for money, and birds die for food."

Snape didn't hesitate any more, but recited a spell, injecting a black, ordinary smoke-like magical power into Flott's delicate skin. The question he just asked was nothing more than giving Flott a time to repent. There was some crossing with her at school, and nothing good would come of a woman becoming a Death Eater in this way, but... oh!He was too worried. There is no need for such an ambitious and greedy person to be pitied.

Flotte clenched her teeth tightly, she could clearly feel a kind of tiny tentacles wrapped around the blood vessels on her arm, and pierced them fiercely, wriggling wantonly in it, that weird feeling of pain and numbness , making Fluote's blood vessels straighten.She could feel Snape's disdain when he cast spells, maybe it was his disdain for her greed, but she didn't care, she never cared what others thought.

"Okay. This mark is connected to your husband's wand. You only need to bring your husband's wand when summoning. Of course, the mark of Luster cannot be removed, so you'd better respond quickly, otherwise your husband's I can't keep my arm." Snape raised his wand and said coldly.

Flotte looked at the terrifying mark on her arm, and said with disgust, "It's so ugly."

"You don't even care about your life for the sake of money and power, but you still care about being ugly? Mrs. Luster, you are really interesting."

"You're getting weird again. I think you're the one who's interesting." Flotte didn't want to explain anything at first, but she really couldn't stand Snape's superior tone. She didn't think that Snape was out for power and money with the man who was already married. What is the use of having money if I am dead? Secondly, I understand what price I pay for my money. The same Death Eater who joins for money and women? We're nothing more than the same breed."

Snape wanted to retort when he heard the last sentence, but was interrupted by Flotte forcefully: "In the end, I never need anyone's pity! Especially pity from people in the same situation as me."

"Hmph." Snape snorted coldly, but he didn't say anything. He was still regretting his ridiculous compassion just now. This kind of sharp-tongued troublemaker is really annoying.

"Since we are both of the same kind, how about helping each other more in the future as colleagues? Severus?"

"Don't make fun of yourself, I'm not the same kind of person as you, and I didn't allow you to call me by my Christian name."

"Then I allow you to call me by my Christian name. Don't keep calling me Mrs. Luster. I'm not interested in the last name of Luster. Besides, it's easy to call someone old if you call me Mrs. Luster."

"I think it's very suitable for you to match the last name of Luster, and it satisfies your ambition."

"There's nothing wrong with being ambitious." Flotte pulled down the sleeves on her arms, and said brightly: "Your ambition is bigger than mine, isn't it, Severus?"

"I said don't call me Severus!"

"Yes, Severus!"

"..."

The author has something to say:

It's not easy to finally call each other Christian names.The heroine I wrote is really greedy and has a vicious mind, so if she suffers later, she deserves it. After all, if a person wants to change, he has to learn a lesson.
