Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
Seeing Potter's attitude, Snape knew he wouldn't tell him the true origin of the snake. Snape was wary of the snake that looked the thickness of a finger and was so docile to Potter. He couldn't forget the chill in his heart when it looked at him, to convince him that it was an ordinary magic snake, and that it was definitely an insult to Snape's intelligence.
Snape gritted his teeth secretly - the little cub of the Potter family would get into trouble for himself, and now he had to keep an eye on Quirrell who was obviously wrong, but now he had one more snake to be wary of! If Harry Potter wasn't Lily's child, if he hadn't brought that ridiculous feeling to himself...... Damn Dumbledore, damn Potter!
Pretending that he was the only one in the room to ignore Liu Yu's parchment, Snape once again made a fierce "T" on the parchment, and Liu Yu was very skeptical that with his strength, the parchment could hold back without being scratched!
Finally, Liu Yu was full, and even fed a few pieces of beef to Baqi, who was in the state of a snake.
"Get out of here when you're done eating, and if you forget to come here tonight to confine, I'll let you know how many parts of a snake can be used to make potions." As soon as Liu Yu ate and put down the knife and fork, Snape coldly ordered Liu Yu to be evicted, and he couldn't wait as if Liu Yu was some terrible contagious germ that wanted to get rid of it immediately.
However, this time Liu Yu was not deceived by Snape's cold appearance, but because of Snape's words, Liu Yu confirmed the fact that Snape really called himself to his office just to eat lunch for himself, and had no other meaning.
Although it seems very indifferent to the outside. But in fact, Liu Yu is the kind of pure character who has revenge and resentment, no matter how cold Snape appears on the surface. His concern for himself was real.
Although Liu Yu knew this when he read the original work, from the perspective of a bystander and his own experience, the feeling is still quite different. Therefore, for Snape, who showed awkward concern to himself, Liu Yu's expression was naturally not so cold.
Before stepping out of Snape's office door, Liu Yu turned his head and hooked the corners of his mouth at Snape very badly: "I prefer black tea to pumpkin juice, please pay attention to this next time you invite me to dinner." After saying this, Liu Yu also quickly closed the door, closing Snape's roar inside.
"What a bold child, it's the first time I've ever seen a student make Snape so angry and so calm." Medusa on the door sighed as she twisted her body.
"Really? It seems that you have one more thing to get familiar with in the future. Liu Yu said lightly. Then Medusa turned around and left when she was stunned.
"Parseltongue?" It seemed that the petrified Medusa took a long time to recover from the shock, it looked at the direction that Liu Yu left, and its body twisted into a strange shape: "I didn't expect that fifty years after that person graduated, I would still meet a parseltongue, and it was also the savior Harry Potter, that person's sworn enemy." โ
While sighing, Medusa's voice slowly became more joyful: "But then there will be someone to talk to me, and there is not a parseltongue in so many portraits of Hogwarts." Ah, thanks Merlin! โ
Not to mention the portrait on the door of Dean Slytherin's office, Liu Yu had returned to his bedroom. As soon as the door was closed, Baqi slipped off Liu Yu's wrist and fell to the ground to become the capable housekeeper with glasses. Skillfully and quickly brewed a pot of black tea for Liu Yu, and Baqi's face couldn't hide his joy.
"Going out makes you so happy?" Liu Yu glanced at Yaqi, who showed "I'm very happy" from head to toe. The mood also improved.
"It's not just because of being able to get out." Baqi smiled softly and explained to Liu Yu the reason why he was happy: "I have been staying in the body of the God King Xiร all morning, and being able to feel the breath of the God King Xiร at all times is what makes me the happiest." "For Liu Yu, Baqi has never hidden his true feelings.
"It's so easy to satisfy." After listening to Yagi's answer. Obviously, the curvature of the corners of his mouth is getting bigger and bigger, but Liu Yu's tone seems to be very disagreeable.
Baqi was still standing beside Liu Yu so respectfully. didn't care about Liu Yuyan's insincere words at all.
"Since you like it so much, come to class with me if you have nothing to do in the future." In the end, when he left the dormitory to go to the afternoon class, Liu Yu still threw down such a sentence.
"Thank you, Your Majesty the God King." Baqi "swished" and became smaller again and wrapped around Liu Yu's wrist, and his voice responded softly.
When Liu Yu appeared in the Slytherin common room, the first-year snakes who had been waiting there immediately surrounded him, especially Draco, Bryce, and Pansy, who were "up and down" Liu Yu, wanting to see if there were any parts missing from him.
"Don't be so exaggerated." Liu Yu, who was standing there for everyone to inspect, had a crying and laughing expression on his face: "Didn't you just go to Professor Snape's office?" It's not a dragon's lair, what danger can it be? โ
The reaction of this group of bear children is too exaggerated, right?! However, knowing that everyone only cares about themselves, Liu Yu, who has never liked the contact of outsiders, did not wave their hands away.
When Liu Yu explained to them that he had just gone to Snape's office for lunch and was kicked out, everyone in the Slytherin common room was stunned as if they had been petrified in an instant. Would Professor Snape care if his students ate lunch or not? And that person is still Harry Potter that he has always looked down on?
"Oh, Merlin, Professor Snape can't have been impersonated by the wizard who drank the Polyjuice Potion, right?!" Finally, Draco wailed out what everyone present was thinking.
Don't be so exaggerated, Snape is actually a good guy who is twisted up! Liu Yu just said this sentence in his heart, if he really said it, he didn't know if he would be sprayed with blood all over his face. In this world, except for the Dumbledore who seems to be able to see through people's hearts. Perhaps only Liu Yu knew Snape best, but unfortunately no one would believe him even if he said it.
After the afternoon class. After dinner, Liu Yu came to Snape's office for the second time today. As soon as she saw that it was Liu Yu, Medusa on the door immediately twisted happily and hissed at him, obviously wanting to talk to him.
But Liu Yu was not interested in chatting with a snake other than Yaqi, it was still a snake in a portrait, the exposed eye swept coldly, and the Medusa on the door stiffened, and the tremor that seemed to come from the soul made it close its mouth immediately. The door was opened.
The sound of opening the door immediately made Snape, who was originally writing something, raise his head, and his sharp gaze swept towards the door, when he saw that the person who came was Liu Yu, his pupils shrank first, and then the corners of his mouth hooked a mocking arc: "I thought who was so bold to dare to go to the gloomy Snape's office, it turned out to be our savior boy." Snape looked at Liu Yu for a moment: "Didn't the savior's reputation allow him to come to his humble Potions professor's office without knocking?" That's not a good habit. โ
Liu Yu didn't go out and knock on the door again, but naturally walked to the chair he had sat on at noon under Snape's increasingly aggressive gaze. Facing Snape: "I was going to knock on the door, Professor Snape. Liu Yu said unhurriedly: "But the portrait on your door obviously didn't give me a chance, and it opened automatically before my hand touched the door." โ
Liu Yu's face, which had always had few expressions, actually looked a little innocent at this time: "So this is not what Professor Snape ordered?" Medusa did open the door before Liu Yu knocked on it, but if Liu Yu hadn't looked at it with a threatening look, it wouldn't have been frightened into doing so. Liu Yu naturally wouldn't say this to Snape.
The young man in front of him tilted his head slightly and looked at him. There was an innocent glint in the purple eyes, and this scene made Snape's next taunt a little indescribable. Realizing that he had relented to the little Potter cub, Snape felt ashamed, and originally only wanted Liu Yu to weigh the skin of the African tree snake, but now he immediately changed his mind.
"Grind the horns of that bucket of bicorns into powder. Immediately, immediately! With a wave of his wand, Snape flew in front of Liu Yu with a barrel full of two-horned horns. When to deal with it. When to go back and rest. The corners of Snape's mouth curled up in a malicious arc, announcing the content of Liu Yu's labor service tonight.
"Powder the horns of the two-horns?" Liu Yu raised his eyebrows and looked at Snape with a very strange look.
Snape thought that Liu Yu was expressing dissatisfaction and reluctance, and a smile appeared on his face that was almost pleasant, however, the smile on Snape's face had not yet fully bloomed, and Liu Yu's next self-talk made his face immediately clear and cloudy, and it was cloudy as if it was about to rain heavily.
Liu Yu's original words were like this: "Originally, I was ready to slice the caterpillar or pluck the toad skin, and even brought snakeskin gloves, so it seems that I won't need it today." Liu Yu intentionally or unintentionally glanced at the place where the bucket of African tree snake snake skin was placed just now, there were obviously two buckets there, and the buckets contained the two potion materials that Liu Yu said, two potion materials that were very disgusting to handle.
At this moment, Liu Yu had a deeper understanding of Snape's cold-faced and soft-hearted Liu Yu, and a slight affection for Snape rose in his heart - this man is a model of older tsundere!
"Don't worry, Mr. Potter." Snape said with a gloomy face, even he didn't know why, when he waved his wand over, he subconsciously chose the snake skin of the barrel of African tree serpents, the best of the several barrels of potion materials. "If Mr. Potter prefers the caterpillar and the toad, I'll be more than happy to leave them ...... for tomorrow."
"No, I don't like them, not at all!" Liu Yu said word by word, saying that he is very serious now.
Snape was stopped by Liu Yu before he could say the last few words, and it was okay to tease Snape occasionally, but if it would make him suffer, it would be worth the loss.
Snape opened his mouth and was about to say, "I don't care if you like it or not", but after meeting Liu Yu's purple eyes that seemed to contain countless wisdom and secrets, the ghost closed his mouth and acquiesced.
Seeing this, Liu Yu's face finally showed a shallow, but very sincere smile - Severus Snape is really a good person. If you let everyone know at Hogwarts that someone used the word "nice guy" to describe a greasy, eerie old bat. I don't know how many eyeballs will fall from the ground......
Then, neither Liu Yu nor Snape spoke again. Except for the sound of Snape flipping through the book every once in a while and the friction of Liu Yu weighing the snakeskin of the African tree snake, the entire cellar fell silent.
However, although no one spoke, the atmosphere did not seem awkward, both of them were seriously doing their own things, and for a while, this cellar, which had always been deserted and depressing, silently flowed with an atmosphere that could be called "harmony".
Snape seemed to be infected by the atmosphere. After Lily's death, or even earlier, when she entered Hogwarts at the age of eleven and became a member of Slytherin, her heart was miraculously relaxed. Snape never dreamed that the person who would be able to relax himself at Hogwarts was not Lily, but Lily's son, Harry Potter.
However. Nothing in this world is going to be perfect, but there is a kind of human vocation that seems to be destruction.
There was a knock on the door of the cellar ......, breaking the silence of the room and pulling Snape out of his relaxed state.
"You'd better have a good reason to be ......," Snape waved his wand, looking at the green numbers in the air, and his voice was filled with suppressed anger, "Come and visit your poor Potions Professor at seven-fifteen." If your brains aren't stuffed with stalks, you know that I'm the Head of Slytherin and not a Gryffindor, and I'm not obligated to serve the energetic lion cubs during my breaks! โ
At the door of the cave, the two Gryffindor cubs were frightened and trembling by the pressure that Snape had inadvertently released, and then in Snape's even more impatient eyes. One of the little lions, with freckles on his face, stumbled and explained, "We...... We're here...... Labor Services, Sri Lanka ...... Professor Snape ......"
Snape snorted, "It's 'Professor Snape'." It's not 'S'...... Professor Snape', Gryffindor deducted five points for changing the professor's name without permission. โ
Liu Yu, who was sitting quietly watching the play, raised his eyebrows again, if he remembered correctly, just from the time he entered school, Gryffindor had been deducted fifty points by Snape for this reason. But under the pressure of Snape's magic, how many students were able to speak fluently without stumbling?
As soon as the two poor lions explained Snape, they remembered what had happened at noon, and that they had imprisoned all the Gryffindor students. At this time, Snape suddenly felt like he was shooting himself in the foot, but the words he said were like water spilled, and it was impossible to take them back, and Snape had no habit of regretting what he had done.
However, the arrival of the two Gryffindor cubs affected Snape's mood very well, and his heart, which had just relaxed a little, tightened again, so he naturally wouldn't let the two cubs have a good time. "Finishing these two barrels of potion materials is the task of the two of you today."
You don't have to look up at Liu Yu to know what Snape let the poor two children do, it must be to deal with those two buckets of potion materials that he dislikes.
Sure enough, Snape's next words confirmed the correctness of Liu Yu's guess: "Mr. Brown skinned the bucket of toads, which is the material for tomorrow's class: Thomas slice the caterpillars, which will also be used in tomorrow's class." The implication was self-evident, that is, the two of them had to dispose of their own potions materials tonight.
"Oh no, Merlin, let me pass out!" Someone is going crazy: "Skinning a toad!" Or a whole bucket! Lavender Brown's little face turned white all at once, God knows what he hated most was a slippery creature, but there was a whole bucket of toads here!
Dean Thomas's face is not good-looking, and the caterpillar is not at all cuter than the toad.
Although the two children were very reluctant and full of resentment towards Snape, they did not dare to refute it in the slightest, and honestly squatted on the ground and began their own labor service with a white face. Experience told them that for Snape, appealing or anything had no effect on it, except to double the punishment.
The two little lions who came to Snape's office for the first time to work and serve did not have the foresight of Liu Yu, and they came with dragon skin gloves, and their hands without gloves quickly became red and itchy.
Turning their heads to look at Liu Yu, who was sitting on the sand and just weighing himself, and then looking back at himself who was sliced and thin-skinned, making the wolf bรจi unbearable, Brown and Thomas felt a wave of envy, jealousy and hatred, and at the same time had a deeper understanding of Snape's partiality towards Slytherin.
There were four people in the cellar now, and although they were still doing their own thing, no one spoke, and the quiet atmosphere that had been around with only Liu Yu and Snape at the beginning could no longer be found.
It's over. Liu Yu put away the snake skin of the last piece of African tree snake, clapped his hands and stood up.
As soon as Liu Yu stood up, Snape looked over, glanced at the African tree snake snake skin that had been weighed and divided into small portions, and Snape's eyes flashed with a faint hint of satisfaction - Potter is really talented in potions, just look at the degree of his weighing African tree snake snake skin, it is not much worse than himself, and accurately handling potions materials is the basis for being able to become a potions master.
"You can go back, Potter, at the same time tomorrow." Snape was kind enough to let Liu Yu leave first, and it was barely eight o'clock, far from the time he had said he was closed. (To be continued.)
