"So that cocky Potter thinks he's found something, so he's going to come and expose me to you, isn't it? ”

Liu Quan turned his head suddenly.

Severus Snape stood in the deserted hallway, the dim candlelight on the walls on either side casting a shadow on his face. Noticing the look of surprise on her face as she turned around, he twisted his lips into a mocking smile.

Liu Quan felt like sighing again.

"Principal Karkaroff looks...... Intimidating," she carefully chose an objective adjective, trying not to remind Snape of the fact that she already knew that Karkaroff was also a Death Eater, "and it was normal for Harry to be wary of him. As for you...... Severus, haven't you always tried to make him afraid?"

Snape's face darkened, and he frowned before realizing that the impostor was joking.

“…… But that arrogant Potter lacked reverence for the professor. He replied coldly, looking bored.

"Just like his father and godfather!"

Liu Quan was stunned, "James?...... Siris?!"

Snape snorted.

Willow Springs, "That's all in the past, Severus. She shrugged, "They gave Gryffindor a lot of points when they went to school—"

She cleverly swallowed back the second half of the phrase, "as much as they earned for Gryffindor." This must be the work of the Elixir.

Snape didn't blow up.

He just stared at her coldly, then lowered his voice, his tone seemed a little stiff.

“…… Where are the horns of the horned camels?"

Willow Springs: ???

Unexpectedly, he suddenly changed the subject, and she showed a question mark on her face. And this expression made him look even worse. He retorted angrily, "...... Didn't you call me here for that?!"

I don't know why—maybe it's because of the miraculous effects of the elixir—Willow Quan wanted to laugh a little.

Oh my God, isn't this conversation like one that happens when a girl in middle school was going to confess her crush on her?

Maybe it was because he had drunk too much mead at the ball tonight, maybe it was because of the elixir—anyway, Willow Springs' laughter, her emerald green eyes sparkling in the dimly lit hallway.

"Oh, what a pity, Severus. She slowly took her left hand out of the pocket of her robe, spread her fingers, and placed the strangely shaped curved horn in the palm of her hand.

"I thought you thought that dance was pretty good, too. She said, shaking her left hand slightly, squirming her lips and silently saying something, the corner growing larger in the palm of her hand—back to its original size.

Snape was slightly stunned.

"Wandless magic?" he whispered to himself. Then, suddenly, he raised his eyes and stared at her closely, his slightly greasy black hair draped over the side of his face, the whole side of his face was stretched into a stern line, and his eyes shone with a cold light.

“…… I don't know when you've developed this skill. He said coldly, but his eyes stayed sharply on her face, as if observing the slightest change in her expression.

Liu Quan wanted to laugh again.

…… Produced by the system, it must be a fine product, Severus. It's a pity that I can't say this to you.

Although it is not possible to ignore the laws of this world and find anti-heavenly skills such as "the wandless magic of the three unforgivable spells" in the exchange list of the system bacteria, the most basic wandless magic, such as the cleansing spell, the shrinking spell, the fluorescent spell, the spell stop, and other simple magic that even young wizards who are still studying at Hogwarts, are allowed to exchange for the corresponding "wandless magic" version.

"Oh, just the simplest of spells. Her eyes widened, and she said innocently, "I wouldn't be any harder—what do you think, Severus?"

The last question sounded like a pun, and Severus Snape, a clever man, certainly wouldn't fail to hear it. But he simply and brutally chose to ignore it.

"It sucks," he said, "whether it's this night or that dance." …… It's all terrible!"

Then he saw that the imposter in front of him was not angry, but snorted and laughed again. So, for some reason, he was even angrier.

"I don't know what's funny about that," he said stiffly, "maybe you Gryffindors like to giggle." But I don't—"

Then his voice was cut off. Because the Gryffindor imposter, who was always smiling stupidly, actually took his right hand and shoved into his hand the horn of the horned camel that he had worked so hard to obtain!

"You should laugh more at Christmas, Severus. There was still a smile in her eyes, and her voice was light.

"Besides, you've got the horns of the horned camel, and I've had a great evening, and it's a great Christmas Eve. ”

After making what sounded like a pun, the impostor did not pester him any more, but winked at him, added with a smile, "Merry Christmas, Severus," and stepped up the staircase in front of them, which had begun to shake and was about to turn.

She was halfway through when the staircase began to turn, and it looked like it was going to take her in no idea. But she didn't seem annoyed, and the little sudden incident didn't spoil her good mood—she held the railing of the staircase with one hand to keep her balance, then looked down, her eyes falling on Snape, who was still parked in the corridor on the seventh floor.

Snape swore he could even hear her humming in a good mood.

…… Moreover, it's actually the song they just danced together! Is this imposter so magical that he can sing the whole song perfectly after listening to it once?!

After the stairs were fully turned away, and Snape, who was sure that the seventh floor, would no longer see his posture and expression, the smile on Willow Spring's face slowly solidified.

The song she hummed grew lower and lower. With a flick of her right hand, her wand slipped out of her sleeve and slashed across her eyes. A series of strange, golden, illegible fonts suddenly appeared in the air in front of her, and a new melody poured out, wafting back and forth around her.

[I don't know where the bell rang.]

I have words in my head that I don't usually say

Even the cold can make people feel pleasant

Why? That's love

With the song repeated again and again on Christmas Eve

There are also brightly lit streets that are deliberately decorated as well-lit.]

Just after midnight on Christmas Eve, the stairs in the Magic Castle creak and rattle in midair, taking her to a completely different destination than she had expected. What she was holding in her hand was not a box with Christmas presents, nor a racket, nor a [Mass-produced Longquan Sword] that had been exchanged from the system, but Lily Evans's wand, ten and a quarter of an inch, willow wood, a good wand for magic—

So that she could use such a magical spell to repeat the song she remembered in her head for a short time, and in the moment when there was no one around, there was a few minutes to recall—

In all the moments when she has lost her self-confidence, has been repeatedly frustrated, and her heart is actually full of loneliness and frustration, she can regain the courage and faith to continue to move forward by recalling the people who once warmed her in the past. Because those people undoubtedly gave her the same care and touch, because they never gave up on her at any time, even if they were sad, even if they were dark, even if they failed, even if they were frustrated, they all believed that she would always go forward, shine on this road, and become an amazing person, someone they would be proud of and trusted......

In the faint but clear melody like a music box playing music, the staircase swirled in the air, skimming the corridor on the eighth floor without stopping, and continued to turn to the side—

And at the moment when the staircase swept through the corridor on the eighth floor, Liu Quan's figure suddenly moved.

She suddenly took a step forward and rushed up the remaining three or four steps, kicked the steps with her right foot at the top of the stairs, and took advantage of the momentum to jump up and leap towards the corridor on the eighth floor!

[Advanced Light Skill] played a role at this moment—no, it was better to say that she was deliberately trying to do it—she skimmed through the gap in the air that had been staggered three or four meters away, and landed lightly and safely on the corridor on the eighth floor, where silence had been restored, with only a slight clicking sound under her feet.

Then she heard the clapping sound coming from not far away.

Liu Quan was stunned for a moment, and then saw in the shadows behind a certain pillar not far away, and Cialis Black slowly paced out of it, and applauded her a few times.

"What a wonderful landing, Lily. He smiled.

Liu Quan: "......"

Ever since she became a professor at Hogwarts, there had been few moments of astonishment that would have been almost stunned.

However, Siris's appearance was not what she expected at all, she had used the skills brought by the previous world arbitrarily because there was no one around, and now she was actually caught by Siris, and she couldn't explain why she would fly high and high and walk on the wall, swollen and broken!

Siris, however, seemed to enjoy it, much to Lily's surprise.

He walked up to her with a smile. He wore a crisp velvet suit tonight, the finest fabrics glowing in the candlelight of the hallway that had not yet been extinguished. His blazer resembles ochre, a color similar to Gryffindor's representative color, but more subdued, and his trousers appear to be black, hugging his long legs.

Compared to the night they reunited more than ten years later, he had certainly washed his face and hair and trimmed his beard, and now he looked neat and chic, and he looked as charming as the eldest young master of the Black family back then.

This shining image was also the first time that Liu Quan had seen it up close tonight - because he had been shuttling through the hall before, busy dealing with the many beautiful girls who had lowered their bodies and took the initiative to invite him to dance - she couldn't help blinking her eyes and sighed, "...... Wow. ”
