404|Chapter 40

Hermione had drunk a lot, but she was conscious.

Upon seeing Severus, Hermione raised her glass to him, then drained the glass in one gulp.

Severus was a little unhappy with Hermione's "arrogant" way of drinking.

In fact, he originally just wanted to come over to see Hermione, so he cast a "phantom spell" on himself and came invisible.

But he didn't expect that Hermione's room would have an anti-"illusion charm", and his spell would lose its effect when he came here.

"Let's have a drink!"

Severus came to the bar with a cold face, but his ears were indeed red, and he sat down.

Look at Hermione again-

Hermione raised her glass at him and raised an eyebrow, implying some kind of invitation.

Seeing this, Severus felt that his whole body was starting to burn, as if it was about to burn.

Hermione pulled out a few bottles of wine and began to mix again.

After mixing the wine, Hermione took out another glass and poured herself and Severus one glass each.

"Have a few drinks with me!"

Today—but the day of her death in her last life.

Actually, Hermione didn't care much about that.

After all, she doesn't know how many lives she has traveled through, and she doesn't know how many times she has "died", and what death days she will care about there.

It's just that this world and the previous world can be regarded as the same world, and the familiar environment and people also make her rarely weak.

Of course, the most important thing is her inner demons and the feelings that are completely out of her control in this life.

Draco - maybe it's because he remembers this day that he stayed here today and stayed with her all day!

Seeing Hermione's somewhat silent appearance, Severus opened his mouth - and said nothing.

He had never been a comforter, nor would he say anything nice, so he could only accompany Hermione and drink glass after glass.

In fact, sometimes silent companionship can make people feel more heartwarming!

But if you wake up the next morning and nothing ridiculous happens—maybe it's even more heartwarming!

Severus never imagined that one day he would wake up in a strange room, on a gorgeous bed.

And the mess of that bed—all about what happened here last night.

After coming to his senses, Severus dressed in a panic while thinking back to what had happened last night.

But I found that I couldn't think of anything.

Damn it—

He had never been so drunk.

As a potion god, he naturally doesn't drink too much, knowing that alcohol can numb and paralyze the nerves, which will affect his judgment of potions.

And the potion - it requires absolute precision.

Once upon a time—he was only drunk like a wretched worm on Lily's wedding day.

Except for that time, Severus never got drunk again.

So he didn't know what he would be like when he was drunk, and what he would do.

And Severus, who was dressed in a panic, didn't notice that his body was any different from usual.

Hermione, dressed in a bathrobe, stood on the balcony and watched Severus get dressed in a panic.

"Are you leaving?"

Meticulously buttoning his shirt to the top, Severus unconsciously shook his buttoned hand when he heard Hermione's voice.

"Don't be so nervous, I'm not going to eat you again. Last night - nothing happened to us. Don't worry, I'll forget everything I did last night. ”

Severus, who was a little relieved to hear Hermione's first half of the sentence, suddenly became nervous again after hearing Hermione's last sentence.

After a momentary pause in the direction Severus had left, Hermione waved her hand in an irritated manner, destroying the furniture in the room.

At the same time, I became more and more determined in my original plan.

The most important thing for her now was to dissolve her demons—Hermione told herself.

After confirming his thoughts, he looked at the mess in the room, and his mood became even more irritable.

Tom leaned against the doorframe of Hermione's bedroom, looked at the mess in the room, opened his mouth wide with a pompous expression, and smiled.

"O Merlin! Y-was the battle so fierce last night? ”

Hermione heard the sarcasm in Tom's words, smoothed her hair, ignored Tom, and turned to leave the bedroom, went to the cloakroom next to her, and found a dress to change.

"Get out—"

Hearing Hermione's words, Voldemort, who had been invincible, did not get angry, but walked to the bar in the living room very scoundrelly, brought himself a glass of wine, and sat there to drink.

"That's not good, I just got back the soul stone ring, and I want to point to you to extract the soul piece inside, refine it, and give me a 'tonic'!"

After drinking the wine in his glass, Tom pulled out another bottle of wine from the bar.

"You have a lot of good wine here, why don't you have a drink together?"

"Tom Riddle, you know, although I resurrected you, that doesn't mean we're all the way - with you, I don't think we have anything to drink."

"Don't do that! You resurrected me so 'hard', I thought we were allies at the moment of my resurrection. You know, no matter how you look like, in the eyes of others, we are already 'all the way'. ”

"Resurrecting you just to get Dumbledore and Voldemort in trouble, we—we'll never be allies."

Tom smiled wryly as he lowered his glass after hearing Hermione's words.

"When Severus joined the Death Eaters, I had already been split from the Lord's soul. I've never used the 'Diamond Curse' on Severus Snape. Your anger is too far-fetched! ”

Upon hearing Tom's words, Hermione looked at Tom and smiled coquettishly.

"Don't you know that it's a woman's nature to be unreasonable and vexatious?"

Seeing Hermione look like "for granted", Tom laughed too.

"Dumbledore said I don't know love. Yes, what love is - I really don't understand. My experience since I was a child has only taught me that if I want something, I will try to grab it. But now, seeing what you've done to Snape, I'm curious about 'love' and envious of Cyris Snape. ”

Actually, Tom really didn't know that Hermione was in love with Severus Snape.

You must know that Snape is not handsome, his hair is greasy all day long, he has a bad temper, and he has an awkward personality, and if you really want to talk about it, you can't find any other merits except for that talent.

But it's such a person who makes Hermione love so hard.

Ah, by the way, he has another advantage, and that is infatuation.

"But—it seems that Snape was infatuated with the mud bloods that had been called the 'Flower of Gryffindor'. It can really be said that 'love is as deep as the sea'! Even after that mudblood gave birth to the son of the man Snape hated the most, he would also kneel at the feet of the main soul for that woman, endure the pain of 'piercing the heart and bones', and plead with the main soul for her. ”

Hermione heard Tom's words, looked up, and glared at him viciously.

The Dark Lord deserves to be the Dark Lord, and his words are really "one hit must be hit", and he always knows how to really hit himself.

In this world, only Severus can cause her inner turmoil.

"What do you want? Tom. Reed - I want you to understand that if I can resurrect you, I can resurrect other Horcruxes as well. I can even resurrect the main soul and help him replenish his soul and restore his senses. ”

"N-you won't!"

Tom didn't care at all about Hermione's threat.

"You will never resurrect the Lord Soul just by having the Lord Soul kneel at his feet, kissing the corners of his robes, and casting the 'Piercing Heart Curse' on him."

Speaking of which, he really didn't understand Hermione.

Hermione's love for Severus really made her lose her mind, such an obvious weakness is there, it's really useless, I'm sorry for myself.

But—he was really envious!

As a Horcrux, before his resurrection, he was connected to the main soul consciousness, after all, their souls were the same.

It was only later, after he was resurrected and his soul was replenished, that he could no longer perceive the main soul.

He has all the memories of the main soul before the resurrection, and he has been alone in the diary for so long, in fact, he is lonely.

And this loneliness made him even more envious of Severus, who was loved by Hermione.

And even - want to snatch it up.

"Yes, I'm not going to resurrect the main soul, but don't forget, Voldemort's Horcruxes are actually quite a few out there."

"I know this, and you know, that during the holidays, I was looking for my 'brothers'. But alas, the pendant is no longer in its original place. It seems that some little guy is disobedient and secretly takes my things. ”

Tom looked distressed, deliberately twisting Hermione's words.

Hermione looked at Tom as a scoundrel and gave up on the previous topic.

"It's Regulus Black, the heir to the Black family. Come to think of it, he's in the same cave you laid out before - a corpse. ”

Knowing that the main soul was hiding the locket, he borrowed the house-elf from the Black family to drink poison, and then looked at the initials in the fake locket, and guessed that it was Regulus Black who took his Horcrux.
