Opar, you can continue to role-play......

But then again, although you are complaining, you actually enjoy the appearance of Xiao Ao in front of you, right? Nai is starting to be tsundere again, this is not good, not good (shaking his fingers). Snape: Arvada!

========================================

Gold Coin Ace (Positive): Relaxation after tension.

、

Hogwarts Slytherin common room

、

"Opal, you're in a good mood?"

Pansy looked at Opal, who was lying on the soft cushion and dangling her feet to do her homework, and couldn't help but speak.

[Ah, you see?] ]

After double-checking to make sure his Potions papers were completely OK, Opal handed Pansy the parchment scroll in his hand and began to complete his other herbology homework, [Am I obvious?] ]

“…… As long as anyone with eyes can see it, right? ”

Pansy twitched the corners of her mouth - come on, who would hum a song and do their homework when they're in a bad mood?

Although she admits that the melody without lyrics is really good, I don't know if it's her delusion, and she always feels that the song that Opal hums seems to be very familiar.

[Yes, I did a cleaning when you went to a Quidditch match and got rid of a lot of pests.] ]

Opal made no secret of his good mood at the moment, [Whoever would be in the mood, right?] (Tianyin: Xiaoao, you're really not afraid of goofs...... ）

Knowing that Opal never paid attention to Quidditch, Pansy didn't pay much attention to it, but couldn't help but shake her head: "You're so easy to satisfy." ”

It's just a matter of cleaning up to be happy like this, this kid is too easy to fool, right?

[Well, because I've been harassed all the time.] ]

Opal shrugged, [but he couldn't find time.] This time, I just took advantage of the time to clean up, at least for a while. ]

After all, during this time, she had listened to the complaints of those friends in the Forbidden Forest, and her ears were about to hear calluses.

"Isn't that right? Isn't there a house-elf in our room who takes care of the hygiene? ”

Then Pansy suddenly noticed that something seemed wrong, "Why are there still pests?" ”

[I don't feel comfortable leaving my lab to house-elves, as some of the materials inside are valuable.] ]

Opal was telling the truth, except that her definition of a pest was clearly different from what Pansy had believed.

"This is also, last time the house-elf washed a silk cheongsam I got from the East, and I still have a headache, after all, it has been three packs, and it is not easy to change."

Saying this, Pansy was also concerned, and the topic was immediately diverted - after all, although house-elves are very versatile, some things are more reassuring to do by themselves. As for the house-elf who washed her cheongsam, I heard that she had been forced to rest because of excessive self-punishment, and it is conservatively estimated that she will not be able to see her in a short time.

"Opal, so you're here."

Draco, who was walking into the common room while talking to Blaise, walked over at this time, "I'm looking for you." ”

[What's the matter?] ]

Opal, who had adjusted his position before Draco approached, looked up at him, [Speaking of which, your arm is alright?] ]

"It's not a big deal, Madam Pomfrey was able to allow me to avoid Quidditch matches in the name of an arm injury, for the sake of my fellow Slytherin residents, and if I continue to rely on it, the healing potion alone will be enough for me."

It's a well-known thing in Slytherin that Draco has transferred Quidditch under the guise of injury, but no one is unhappy about it - after all, everyone has seen the situation of the Gryffindor and Hufflepuff matches, and for the graceful little snakes, playing Quidditch in the storm...... It sounds heroic, but forget it.

Not to mention that Dementors and Unicorns take turns in the future. There have been quite a few little snakes writing home asking for relevant things, and I believe that by Monday the owls will be busy again.

After a pause, Draco added, "Speaking of which, have you heard of it?" Some Slytherin students have reported that a large black dog has been seen hovering around Gryffindor Tower and Slytherin cellars lately. But when it sees people, it runs, and it is very cunning. ”

“…… Uh......"

Black ...... Big dog?! Oh my God, it can't be what she thinks, right?

Pansy only thought that she must have more black lines on her head to make a sweater.

Should I say that the power of this plot is too great or something, the major events of this school year are basically all happening one after another - although the details already have a feeling of "unrecognizable". That black dog can't be Harry's famous dog godfather, Cialis Black, right?

But wasn't the rat spot that Peter had turned into missing this semester? And there is no trace of the rat on the photo of the Rons, so why is Sirius still running to school? It's not scientific!

[What do the others say?] ]

"Others" in Opal's mouth. refers to the other prefects and chiefs.

"Because of the last cellar portrait incident, they all think that it would be better for everyone to pay attention to their actions and not be left alone. A few were inclined to report the incident to the dean, but there was no evidence that the big black dog had the intention of hurting people, so there was no movement for the time being. They are now more inclined to set traps and catch them and deal with them. ”

...... with traps Catch a big black dog?

Pansy didn't laugh on the spot - maybe it would be okay for a normal animal, but the problem was that the big black dog was 80% likely to be Cialis Black, and he could catch him with a trap? Hell if you can catch it, right?

[Let them toss around, just let them apply what they have learned.] ]

Opal was noncommittal, [but don't be left alone, as the culprit of the destruction of the portrait has not yet been found.] It doesn't hurt to pay a little more attention. ]

Did that stupid dog really think it was luck that he was able to make it to Hogwarts?

I don't want to think that if she hadn't consciously opened the back door, just the time he wandered in the Forbidden Forest should have been eaten alive by some creatures inside.

As for the reason why Siris was let in, it was very simple, first of all, Lupin's recent attention to her, and the frequency of inviting her to the office to chat made her feel a little unbearable - even if Snape was always acting as her shield intentionally or unintentionally recently, it was not a long-term solution, and secondly, the murderer who destroyed the portrait of the Slytherin cellar, Opal was already sure that it must be the person who Riddle took her to see last time, hiding in the Black Manor, Now her main focus is on the family tasks assigned to her by Senior Sister Qianwei, and she needs to find a helper.

Well? Nagini, you ask?

The magic snake recently entered an evolutionary dormant state because of its support in the secret realm of the lake, and after reading it, Senior Sister Qianwei said that it is conservatively estimated that she will not wake up until the beginning of spring next year.

"You guys seem to be making too much of a fuss, do you?"

Blaise was unimpressed by Opal and Draco's caution, "It's been a while since then, and maybe the intruder has left." ”

[House-elves used to complain to me......]

As for Brace's statement, Opal replied slowly, [The food placed in the kitchen will be inexplicably missing. ]

That stupid dog has a werewolf professor as its owner anyway, so he shouldn't have to steal anything to eat, and logically speaking, the only ones who can steal food are the intruders who infiltrate Hogwarts. The only surprise was that I didn't know where she was hiding, after all, magical plants didn't grow everywhere in the castle.

Although Opal has a self-made map of the living spots, because she is not the real owner of the castle after all, without management authority and no student roster, she can only see the detailed activities of the current students in Slytherin House, and the others can only see the activities one by one.

As for the previous Slytherin students...... That power was only available when she became the head of the academy.

Although Opal did not say it explicitly, everyone present could hear the implication.

"This kind of thing...... Say it early, uh...... Sure enough, it still has to be hidden. ”

Hearing Opal say this, Draco was the first to react, "I thought it was a big fuss, but now it looks really necessary." ”

"Don't you need to go to the dean?"

Brace suggested another solution, "It's not something to sit back and do, is it?" ”

"I want to know this kind of thing, it's useless to look for it, right?"

Pansy scoffed at this, "And anyone with a discerning eye can see that our dean has been in a very bad mood lately, and now go to him...... You don't want to die and don't drag others along, okay? ”

Especially with the news of the Gryffindor Foursome, whom Professor Snape hated.

The four of them fell silent together, and after a moment, Opal suddenly stretched and yawned half-covered: [Actually, if you want me to say, it's not our turn to worry about this kind of thing.] Just do our part, and there will be professors and principals left, right? ]

The three of them, who were still having a headache, reacted immediately when Opal said this—yes, although the intruder's target was clearly Slytherin, the fact that no one had been injured so far shows that the other party is still measured in this regard. Adults aren't in a hurry, what are they worried about here?

And Pansy even thought that although this is a fan, Harry's status as the "main plot corner" is still unshaken, and there is a clear villain who taunts the title of "Savior" here, and if there is really any trouble, he is the first to find him. So he also settled down.

So the next time, in the process of the four of them chatting and learning from each other's homework, passed happily.

==========================I'm the dividing line ====================== switch roles

Hogwarts: The Forbidden Forest

、

As Pansy had said, Snape had been in a very bad mood lately.

First of all, the former enemy is now shaking under his nose all day long, and then the news of another enemy's successful escape from prison broke out, and the Dementor who always evokes unpleasant memories is wandering around in front of him every day, and his college students don't know which one is being targeted by an enemy who doesn't know the details at all, and this is not the end, a copy of the trumpet of an enemy who has the name of a savior but has no consciousness at all, and he doesn't know his dangerous situation at all, Often exposing his fragile and defenseless neck to the infected fangs of werewolves......

Snape had no doubt that the sweet old bee who could eat the fox to death was definitely trying to overwork himself.

Because he had just been careless, Dumbledore's darling, who only caused trouble, had nearly fallen from fifty feet in the air under siege by the Dementors, breaking his own neck if it hadn't been for the presence of a timely strike.

Snape had to admit that he was actually secretly relieved to see the unicorn that had stolen into the air save Potter, who was about to die young.

However, the unicorn's behavior was quite strange to him.

Feeling that Snape himself didn't know what it was, he made his way to the Forbidden Forest again at night.

[Yo, good evening, should I say long time no see?] ]

Then, I met the little guy I hadn't seen in a formal conversation for a long time since the summer vacation.

"If the brain body you use to hold things hasn't atrophied, we've just seen it during the day today...... Right on the playground of Hogwarts. ”

The way of greeting was exactly the same as in his past memories, and the familiar attitude that was different from the day, made Snape feel inexplicably relieved, and then subconsciously began to speak venomously again.

[Daytime?] Hey, are you in that group too? ]

As a result, the silver-white young beast in the moonlight blinked, tilted its head and looked puzzled, [sorry...... I didn't even notice because I was so angry at the time......] There are ghosts......

Although he himself was unconscious, Snape's side had the highest demonic pressure and the darkest face among the professors who rushed over—only ghosts were inconspicuous, but this kind of thing killed Opal couldn't admit it.

“……”

Snape choked - knowing that there was no malice in the young beast's words, how could they sound so wrong?

[How did you come up with this tonight?] It's not yet time for potions in the Forbidden Forest to mature. ]

As if completely unaware of Snape's struggle, Opal flicked his tail and said in an unusually cheerful and brisk tone, [Speaking of which, how happened to the boy I saved today?] ]

"I can't die anyway."

Harry frowned subconsciously at the mention of Harry, and Snape replied only to realize that something was wrong - why did he follow the topic of the unicorn cub away?

So after coughing, he continued, "Speaking of which, your state during the day ......"

If he hadn't been sure that both of them were it, he would have thought that there was another red-eyed unicorn in the Forbidden Forest. Compared to the daytime and the night, it feels like the character is completely wrong......

[Ah, you say that kind of ancient name......]

Opal moved his hooves and circled around Snape, flicking his tail in a merry tone, [It was my friend who told me that it was best to speak in that way of being majestic in front of men.] How's that? I'm pretending to look alike, right? Was Snape intimidated? ]

“……”

Twitching the corners of his mouth, Snape endured and endured, and finally he couldn't control the corner of his forehead and burst a bruise—he knew that this was the nature of the unicorn in front of him (Tianyin: Snape, you guessed wrong), "If you want to be coquettish, please go to the Forbidden Forest to find your so-called 'friends', don't face me—we don't know each other at all." ”

I really want the group of people in the school who are full of longing for this unicorn to see how cute and coquettish it is now......

[What is said...... Didn't Snape come looking for me tonight? ]

Stopping, Opal blinked.

"I just...... Ahem......"

Snape, who had wanted to say that he had come to find potion materials, got stuck in the middle of speaking, but after coughing again, he quickly organized his words, "I'm here to collect the spider silk of the Starlight Spider." ”

[Really, what would happen to coaxing me, if it were her, I would definitely say that.] ]

Opal complained, [But I haven't seen her in a while, why has Hogwarts been so strict lately?] ]

“…… Because the intruder has not yet been caught. ”

After a moment's pause, Snape realized that the "she" in the mouth of the little beast in front of him was referring to his student Opal, "Did you encounter any suspicious characters in the Forbidden Forest?" ”

[I really didn't pay attention to this.] ]

Opal opened his eyes and said nonsense, [but since you said so, Snape, I'll ask my friends to keep an eye out for it when I get back—but then again, how do I inform you if there's any news?] ]

“…… In three days, the moonlight lily should be in full bloom. ”

[Three days?] I know. ]

This should be enough time for her to communicate with a certain dog godfather before selling his whereabouts.

Opal, who was ready to do so, moved his ears in a happy mood, [So in exchange, can you bring me some fruit candy?] Last time she gave me some and I thought it tasted pretty good. Oh yes, I want strawberry or pineapple, hey...... Don't go that fast! I'm not done yet......]

“……”

So he shouldn't have gone out of his way to ask this troublesome unicorn for help!

Snape, who strode away and walked into the Forbidden Forest, felt a real sense of regret at the moment.

However, in fact, even he didn't notice that when he turned to leave, the corners of his lips, which had been tightly pursed for recent days, gently raised a faint arc......
