Willow Quan's smile was still on her face, and it hadn't completely disappeared until she left the Muggle Studies office and walked down the eighth-floor hallway leading to the Headmaster's office.

But when she said tonight's password in front of the stone beast outside the headmaster's room, walked up the stairs, and stopped outside the door of the headmaster's office, the slight smile on her face with a slight lightness finally disappeared after hearing the faint sound of conversation coming from the room.

Dobby was right, Snape was in the headmaster's office. He must have left her office and went to the Headmaster's office almost immediately to find Dumbledore.

She heard Snape's angry voice, "...... Werewolves are very dangerous! You shouldn't leave someone like this in Hogwarts!"

Dumbledore replied perfunctorily, "Oh, of course, of course. Severus, don't you want some honey candy?...... So, what about Bibi Duo beans?"

Snape interrupted him angrily, "Albus, you should take this seriously! You can't put the whole castle in danger just because the poor werewolf is poor and has no job! Do you sympathize with him, do you want to let him create more monsters like him at Hogwarts?! You know what he did tonight! If you go a little later, there is a good chance that someone will actually become a miserable victim......

She could see through the crack in the door that Dumbledore's expression was a little more serious at first in the face of such a serious accusation, but when he seemed to sense something, the expression on his face suddenly relaxed, and he even winked at Snape in a good mood, and said in a pleasant tone: "Oh, Severus, I know you're worried about Lily, but ......"

"No one is worried about that woman!" Snape stiffly interrupted the old wizard again, his back straightened even straighter, and his back radiated a raging rage. "I just don't want to see your favorite Defence Against the Dark Arts professor turn that Potter, who is just as reckless and arrogant as his father, into a were......wolf before the 'mystery man' or some dark wizard does something to Mr. Potter."

Liu Quan's eyebrows involuntarily raised slightly.

Strange, was he discussing Lupin the Werewolf? shouldn't he have discussed with Dumbledore what to do with the real traitor Peter Pettigrew?Or was she too late, and they had already agreed on it?

Dumbledore coughed. Then, as if intending to interrupt Snape's surging rage in a blunt and unexpected way, he raised his voice sharply.

“...... Are you out there, Lily? If so, please come in. I have something to ask for your help. ”

Snape: "......!!!"

He was rarely surprised by anything, but at this moment he was stunned to watch the oak door of the headmaster's room slowly open, and the fake Lily who had just returned to her Muggle Studies office earlier was standing there with a calm expression, I don't know how long she had been standing there, and I didn't know what she had heard!!

He was so angry that his usual pale face turned red.

"Dumbledore...... You...... She...... You ......!!" He couldn't organize his words for a moment, and the venom he was accustomed to spraying at her didn't know when it was gone. It was probably because he thought that Dumbledore had deliberately misinterpreted his words and twisted his disgust at werewolves into concern for the impostor, who would have been overjoyed if he heard it!

However, the impostor didn't look smug in any way. Met with his angry eyes, she walked in, the door closed behind her, and she walked over to Dumbledore's table, which happened to stop beside him.

"I heard you're looking for me. She said briefly to Dumbledore.

Dumbledore smiled and nodded. Asking her in a tongue-in-cheek tone if she had just heard his conversation with Snape, he replied bluntly, "Yes." ...... I've heard Harry briefly explain to me the truth you found in the Screaming Shack tonight...... It's shocking. But no one would believe the words of the three thirteen-year-old wizards. And you should guess that Remus and Severus are out of — well, 'all these years,'" he squeezed his eyes at the fake Lily as a hint, and Snape guessed that what he didn't say was actually a blunt and cruel definition of "Remus as a werewolf and Severus as a former Death Eater". But fortunately, Dumbledore took care of his already dangerous face and ...... rage value, choose a more obscure word instead.

“...... Even as a witness, he was not able to fully convince the Ministry of Magic and the Wizengamot to believe Ciris's testimony and overturn the case for him...... Then, of all the people present, only your word seems to be the most credible, Lily. Would you like to testify for Siris before the officials of the Ministry of Magic and the Wizengamot to prove his innocence and the sins Peter had committed?"

Snape: "......"

For a moment, he felt that Dumbledore's words were full of grooves, and he didn't know where to start.

But the fake Lily nodded without hesitation.

"I'd love to, Albus. She replied categorically.

Dumbledore laughed happily.

"How lucky it is to have a friend like you...... I'm sure Siris would have thought so. He reverted to his earlier relaxed tone, a little teasing, and winked at Willow Spring.

"If you want to speak to him before he escapes, go to the castle tower now. I'm guessing he's hiding somewhere outside the tower where it's easy to escape - but quickly, before the stiff-minded people get the Dementors or something. He hinted happily...... No, explicitly, it's like saying, "You've got to go there and talk to Siris so you're a friend."

Liu Quan sighed.

“...... I'll go. "Tell him a few words about what you have secretly arranged for him," she said helplessly, lest he impulsively mess around outside—"

Dumbledore chuckled.

Liu Quan only turned to her side at this time, and since she walked into the principal's room, she had been silent, and her eyes were surging with angry black-robed men. Her gaze shifted from his face, over his shoulders and onto a shelf behind him.

"Rest assured, I'm sure Remus will get out of here," she whispered, "and he'll find something more worthwhile for him elsewhere—for now his friend is back." ”

Snape felt a surge of rage rush over his head.

Very...... Great! She told him this! After he had just made a mockery of their blind friendship with Gryffindor, she immediately used the example of the werewolf and the stupid dog to upset him!

He snorted coldly, and replied in a strange tone, "That's the best! I don't want to see anyone suffer any more misfortune because of your blind and gullible so-called 'friendship'!"

Sure enough, as soon as this sentence came out, the imposter was choked.

A subtle sense of pleasure in regaining the upper hand was felt as the imposter silently walked out of the Headmaster's office, only to find the old Headmaster of Hogwarts sitting behind the huge desk, smiling meaningfully at him.

The smile pierced his brow.

On the other side, Liu Quan rushed up to the west tower panting, pushed open the door, and outside the door was the pheasant wall of the tower. Outside the walls was a dark starless night sky, with only the full moon hanging high in the sky, as if to suggest that the thrilling night they had spent was not over.

Sure enough, Ciris Black was there. And Harry. And Hermione. And the hippogriff, Buckbeak.

By this moment Siris had stepped onto Buckbeak, as if he was about to fly away on it. But when the heavy footsteps sounded, he glanced at where the footsteps had come from, and then suddenly grinned.

Harry and Hermione watched in confusion as their Muggle Studies professor raced in their direction—it was the second time they'd met her tonight since using the time turner—and by the time she finally stopped in front of them, gasping like an old bellows.

Her not-so-common look of embarrassment made Siris's mouth even bigger. His face was dirty, except for his teeth, which were still white, glittering in the darkness.

Harry and Hermione exchanged glances, and just as Harry was about to stop Professor Evans, he heard his godfather speak behind him.

"It's okay, Harry, I'd love to talk to her. Harry heard the godfather's voice filled with joy, "It's late, why don't you two go back to sleep?"

Harry was about to say something, but Hermione glared at him and dragged him away in a hurry—though the first time they met Professor Evans, they hadn't debunked the oddities that they weren't likely to be in that place, but the second time they met was a new story, and they couldn't expect Professor Evans to be so understanding as to remain silent every time — and the bell at the top of the tower was about to ring. They have to go back to the hospital before that.

After the footsteps of the two little wizards clicked away, Sirius jumped off Buckbeak's body - the posture was still very chic, as if the characteristics of the eldest young master of the Black family, who was going to be handsome in death, had returned to him - and slowly walked towards Lily Evans, who had just breathed his breath.

He stopped in front of her, his head covered in dirt, his hair long and curly, beaten into locks of dirt, with a beard that almost covered most of his face, and the corners of his forehead from the scars from the fight with the werewolf Lupin, with sunken eyes and a few deep wrinkles carved into his forehead. His clothes were also tattered, and he looked extremely depressed. Yet he stood in front of her so nonchalantly, and gave her a familiar smile.

"Lily, are you here to see me?" his voice was low and magnetic.

Liu Quan was speechless for a while.

But it seems that Siris doesn't really care what she has to say. He said to himself.

"Creation, Lily—the last time we met, we were in Godric's Hollow. At that time, I didn't expect to see you again after so many years. He said in a pleasant tone.

"Siris......" At this time, Liu Quan seemed to be able to make a little sound, so she called him with mixed feelings, and after shouting the name that had not been said for more than ten years, she fell into an awkward silence.

In order to avoid such a rigid atmosphere, she quickly said: "...... Dumbledore called me over tonight, saying that he would try to get me to testify before the Ministry of Magic and the people in the Wizengamot, that I had heard Peter admit in person at the Screaming Shack that he was the culprit, and that you were completely innocent...... So until then, Siris, don't act rashly, and don't let those people catch you again......"

Cyris smiled.

"You're going to testify before the old-fashioned ones who are rigid and refuse to believe the facts?" he waved his hand as if to shake the ridiculous idea away, "Alright, Lily, you don't have to do such a thing, they doubt your motives and personality other than repeating clichés like zombies...... Anyway, I didn't run out to restore my reputation, I ran out to catch Peter, the real culprit, and Harry-"

The night wind suddenly became violent, the clouds in the sky were blown away a little, and the moonlight shone down, and he suddenly snapped for a moment, and then grabbed his hair, which was already unkempt and tangled.

"Merlin's hat, you look terrible, Lily. He squinted at her with concern, as if he had completely forgotten that he seemed to be the worst person, "I guess old Remus guy got you in trouble later, didn't he?"

Liu Quan was stunned for a moment, and then realized that Siris was referring to what happened after he lured away the werewolf Lupin, but was thrown away by the other party with a ridiculously high force value. The memory of that almost gameover was not good at any time, and she grinned a little embarrassedly and replied, "...... Get used to it. ”

For some reason, this succinct answer drew a burst of laughter from Cialis.

"Hahaha...... You're still so funny, Lily...... You know, you have that look like you used to be at Hogwarts, every time you teach James a serious lesson—and then James' face looks like you've swallowed a whole barrel of slugs......"

At first, Liu Quan wanted to stare at this guy who didn't open the pot with a straight face, but later, she felt that her tense face unconsciously relaxed, and finally like him, she opened the corners of her lips and smiled.

Then, Siris looked back at Buckbeak, who was snorting in circles, and the smile on his face faded.

“...... I should go," he said without warning, "or we'll be in trouble for Dumbledore here when those idiots from the Ministry of Magic follow the scent." ”

He turned and stepped onto Buckbeak and patted it lightly on the side of its neck. Buckbeak let out a long whistle and ran towards the clearing in the courtyard. As it ran a few steps to take off, Siris's shout reached the ears of Willow Spring, who was standing behind them to see him off.

"Goodbye, Lily—is there anything else you want to say to me-"

Liu Quan couldn't help but roll his eyes as if he was not angry at this kind of handsome behavior before leaving. She raised her voice as well and shouted, "...... Remember to wash your face!!"

Siris's back seemed to freeze, stiffened for a moment, and then burst out laughing unabashedly. Buckbeak spreads his wings and soars into the night sky. The clouds cleared, and the moonlight shone on the ground at the top of the tower against the dark silhouette of Hogwarts Castle.
