"Lucy, stop making trouble." Exace reluctantly turned his girlfriend's body and let her face herself, "Catherine already has a lover, and that person loves her deeply. ”

"What!" Lucy's mouth opened wide in shock, "Who is it?" ”

"You'd better not know." Ixissi smiled and stroked his girlfriend's hair.

"Then why do you think they love each other?" Lucy pouted dissatisfied, not noticing that the "SC" behind Ixacey was being opened from the outside.

"Because—" said Exissia mysteriously, "I saw him open Catherine's bedroom door. ”

"Only those who love each other can enter and exit that door at will!" Lucy exclaimed loudly, only to notice that there was someone behind her boyfriend, "Professor Snape!" ”

Ixissi's body froze suddenly, and it took a while before he turned around slowly: "Dean! ”

But Snape didn't pay any attention to his surroundings at all, he just walked indifferently past Ixissy and Lucy to Catherine's quarters.

When Snape's palpitating black figure vanished, Lucy dragged her boyfriend out of "SC", and it was only when the deafening music crashed into Ixace's ears that he snapped back to his senses.

[Oh my God!] I actually discussed his relationship with Catherine with my girlfriend in front of Professor Snape! Pulling his hair, he squatted on the ground and shouted hysterically in his heart, [I must be crazy!] I'm going to be killed by the dean! ]

"Braster!" Lucy covered her ears and howled at her boyfriend's ear, "Why are you grabbing your hair and squatting on the ground?" ”

[Not true!] Ixissiy suddenly looked at the crowd dancing wildly around him, [Why didn't Professor Snape open the "SC" just now, but no sound came in?] He was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized something, [Confusion Spell!] ]

As Exethisy had guessed, Snape had indeed cast a Confusion Charm on himself, as he had only recently returned to Hogwarts. He was in a terrible mood, but the school year was over, and he could no longer anger others by deducting points at will, and he didn't want to be found by others, so he wanted to come to Catherine and inform her of the failure to trap Bellatrix by the way.

Because Snape didn't control it at all, the scope of influence of the Confusion Charm was a bit larger, so even the surrounding sounds were affected, but the space behind "SC" was, after all, independent of Hogwarts. The power of normal magic is much weakened here, which is why the Potions Professor is discovered by Ixissi's girlfriend.

Snape wasn't in the mood to pay attention to them, so he waited until he turned the doorknob in Catherine's bedroom to remember what Exissiy had said to his girlfriend.

Snape froze in place, half-fazed, until the door in front of him was pulled open from the inside.

"Professor!" Catherine looked at Snape in confusion, "Why didn't you come in?" ”

The confusion on the girl's face made Snape immediately hide the distractions in his mind. "The entrapment plan failed." He replied in a deep voice.

"We all guessed it, after all, you didn't show up. The headmaster was also in high spirits, if it weren't for the group of Gryffindors who were too crazy, I was afraid that the atmosphere would have been lost. Catherine opened the door, but Snape had no intention of moving.

"Do you have a plan?" Snape asked in the affirmative.

Catherine glanced at Snape in surprise. Only then nodded slightly: "Yes." I want to travel abroad for a while, looking for their kind. She looked down at her right palm.

"When are you leaving?" Snape began to think about what he should prepare.

"Professor!" Catherine looked up at Snape, "I want to be alone. ”

"No way!" Snape glared at the girl and shouted.

"Professor!" Catherine gave a gentle smile, "You can't stop me anymore. ”

Snape was speechless. Because Catherine is now a ninth-order, although she has only reached it for a week, she has three pieces of family inheritance on her. This meant that she had been condensed three times when she was in the eighth order, and with the four water essences in her right hand, the Potions Professor was indeed no longer able to stop her from doing anything.

"I really can't stop you, but—" Snape replied coldly, "there's someone else at Hogwarts who can stop you!" With that, he turned and walked away.

Catherine looked at his back and sighed silently, but the gaze in her eyes became more and more determined.

Catherine turned back, ready to close the door and continue packing, but as her gaze swept over the doorknob, the argument between Ixissi and his girlfriend suddenly flashed through her mind.

Catherine hesitantly grasped the doorknob and closed her eyes to take a closer look, only to realize that the space behind "SC" was not only independent of Hogwarts' defenses, but also encased in a layer of water power.

The green crystals on the "SC" are not randomly arranged, they are arranged according to the snake language, which means "the origin of water".

The whole "Origin of Water" is like a house hidden inside Hogwarts, "SC" is the gate connecting the house to Hogwarts, and behind the door is the "Sleeping Serpent Foyer", because the silver serpent that "incubated" the snake ring has been sleeping under the floor.

The Sleeping Serpent Foyer originally had only one door, as it was originally Salazar's suite as a child, but after Hogwarts was built, he converted it into a dormitory for prefects and student council presidents, adding four more doors and replicating the suite in three copies.

Due to Slytherin's special focus on personal privacy, Salazar has set up three guardian magics.

The first lane is placed on top of the "SC", which is responsible for screening the occupants, so it can only be opened by those who have been approved.

The second is placed on four doors to keep out unwanted visitors, so that only those who are invited can enter.

The third is placed on the bedroom door, which provides a safe resting environment for the owner, so that only those who love each other can enter and exit at will.

Catherine's eyes widened in shock, staring at the inconspicuous doorknob, she had always thought that the bedroom door was no different from the door of the study and dining room, and no one had warned her, let alone tried it.

After all, Slytherin doesn't deliberately invade anyone's privacy, and the Gryffindors who come to visit have always been out of step with the lavish setting, so Draco only tried it last year the night she left the medical wing to take her to the celebration.

But Catherine thought that the reason why Draco couldn't open it was because the Potions Professor had set up multiple locking charms outside, after all, Snape had set up an alarm spell specifically for her inside the door before leaving, otherwise she wouldn't even dare to approach the door.

The next morning, Catherine was so excited that she didn't notice how much magic Snape had set up at her bedroom door, and she lost the chance to notice the abnormality of the bedroom door.

It was precisely because she did not discover the peculiarity of this bedroom door that Catherine did not realize that the relationship between her and Snape had long since become extraordinary.

Catherine raised her hand and covered her eyes, but she couldn't hide the tears that slowly dripped from the two lines, she lowered her head and leaned against the door panel, her body trembled slightly, and she couldn't calm down for a long time.

By the time Catherine finally regained her composure and lowered her hand, her eyes had become more resolute, she closed the door, waved her wand to pack her belongings, packed the materials she needed for her travels, and then washed and slept without hesitation or hesitation.

By the time Catherine boarded the Hogwarts Express with the others the next morning, there was nothing unusual on her face, as if nothing had happened last night.

"I still can't believe that all of your twelve courses have received perfect marks! I thought Trelawney was going to give you a failing grade! Ixissi, who was on his last prefect patrol, said to Catherine in astonishment.

"To be honest, I didn't expect her to give me a perfect score." Catherine was also full of disbelief, "I completely forgot about the exam at the time, and now I don't know if it counts as cheating?" ”

"I don't think there is a student who doesn't cheat when it comes to divination." Ixissi shrugged and smiled.

Catherine couldn't help but smile with relief, and then asked, "Have you chosen your heir?" ”

"I didn't choose." Ixissi shook his head and replied, "After all, no one can open 'SC' except you at the moment, so it's up to you to decide who you are!" He reached for his prefect badge and tossed it to Catherine.

"You don't seem to have a strong desire for power?" Catherine grabbed the badge and raised an eyebrow and asked.

"You don't need this thing to be a member of the Wizengamot." Ixissi gently stroked the family crest on his cuffs, "I would rather be the youngest member." ”

"I don't think it's going to be a good idea to grant your wish." Catherine smiled and offered her own proposal, "It's better to travel first and gain some experience." ”

"Huh?" Ixissi immediately narrowed her eyes slightly, and Catherine looked out the window as if she hadn't noticed.

"Justice and law have always been the most useless things in war."

Catherine's whispering voice, like thunder, startled Ixissi, and he stared at the girl for a long time before turning his head to look at the magic school in the distance, which was gradually obscured by the mountain peaks.

"I wonder when I'll be able to return to Hogwarts?" "I don't know if it will be the same when I see it again." ”

"No matter how much it changes, it is the most undefiled holy place in our hearts." Catherine leaned her head against the window frame and smiled softly.

Ixace glanced at the girl, and then looked in the direction of Hogwarts, and couldn't help but smile wistfully. (To be continued......)
