'Wait a minute!' What exactly does her relationship with the wizarding world mean? Snape asked, looking at the vine walls around her, "Catherine is a witch, she's a member of the wizarding world, is there anything else she has to do with the wizarding world?" ”

The Potions Professor's question went unanswered, and the pale green curtain that wrapped Catherine around it still seemed fragile, but it was actually extremely resilient.

Snape was forced to take a deep breath, close his eyes and begin to study the problem itself.

Catherine's relationship with the wizarding world, or rather with Hogwarts, after all, she basically stayed in Hogwarts Castle after stepping into the wizarding world, but as a student, her studies did not consume much of her experience, and her more than two years of study life were basically busy dealing with the conflicts between Gryffindor and Slytherin, as well as increasing her own strength, and the reason she did this was to protect Harry. Porter.

The reason why Catherine wants to protect Harry is because Snape told her on the first day he met her that she might be Lily's missing daughter.

As an orphan, Catherine had an unusually longing for affection, and although her caution kept her from finally recognizing Harry until Dumbledore opened his mouth to admit it, it was undeniable that from the moment Snape told her about this possibility, the focus of her life was entirely on this.

But Dumbledore did not keep Lily's blood, he told a lie and promoted the relationship between Catherine and Harry, but Harry's unintentional act made Catherine doubt the relationship between her and Harry, and confirmed from Dumbledore that his original evidence was just a lie.

Whatever the reason for Dumbledore to lie, being exposed to Catherine in front of her after a year and a half, and refusing to tell her why she lied, was definitely enough to make Catherine angry.

But Catherine was not angry that she didn't know the truth, but that Dumbledore had wasted her time, after all, verifying the blood relationship between the two people. In the wizarding world, blood magic is still commonly used, but in addition to the fresh blood of both parties, it is necessary to prepare some relatively rare potion materials to perform this magic.

This is one of the reasons why Catherine didn't directly verify the blood relationship with Harry in the first place, but more importantly, she didn't want to give Harry great hope and end up only to be disappointed, because Harry's desire for family affection was not inferior to her.

It was only after Dumbledore's confluence that the relationship between Catherine and Harry reverted to uncertainty, and once the results of blood magic confirmed that the two were not relatives at all. That's when things get complicated.

Why?

If Catherine wasn't Harry's sister, and she wasn't made a Horcrux by Voldemort on the night of the Potter family's accident, then why did Voldemort choose her as one of his Horcruxes?

Because of the use of a living system zuò Horcrux, the consequences are difficult to estimate, after all, the Horcrux stores only soul fragments, and any living body has a complete soul, once the soul fragment is assimilated and devoured by the complete soul, then the main soul may be affected by the living soul or even be charged.

Although the use of babies can increase the success rate. But if the environment in which he grew up made him have a strict antagonistic mentality towards the main soul, then the soul fragments in his body will one day be rejected from the body, such as Dumbledore's cultivation of Harry.

But Catherine's childhood was a brutal competition for survival, which is so similar to Voldemort's experience as a child. This, combined with the forbidden spell on her body, made her existence completely undetectable to the wizarding world, allowing her to grow in the Muggle world without any disturbance, until the moment when Voldemort needed her.

If it weren't for Dumbledore's chance at seeing her. Catherine and the wizarding world will not have anything to do with each other; But if Snape hadn't succeeded in convincing her to change her mind, Catherine would never have been a student at Hogwarts.

Thinking of this, Snape immediately understood why Catherine's previous love affair had suddenly turned from anger to panic. After all, if he hadn't shown his feelings for Lily uncontrollably at the first sight of her, Catherine's caution would not have been persuaded so lightly.

If it were another professor at Hogwarts, after they couldn't change Catherine's decision, they would definitely choose to find helpers and take turns in battle, which would only push Catherine's heart further and further away.

Because the so-called good and evil have never been Catherine's principles, she is a standard Slytherin, and in Slytherin's view, whether it is right or wrong, it is just a difference in status and perspective, so as a Slytherin, only interests have been focused.

Only the members of Slytherin can understand this, and it is precisely because Dumbledore understands this that he decides to let Snape, who has always only brought fear to students, be the guide for Catherine to enter the wizarding world, because he is the only one who can influence Catherine's future choices.

However, when Catherine was uneasy about her future, Snape did not help her reposition herself, but was at a loss and even silent, which made her misunderstand that he had denied her existence, so Catherine suddenly decided to leave, even if he stopped her in time, but still chose to close herself.

"Stupid girl!" Snape scolded in great anguish, reaching out to Catherine's face, this time the pale green curtain finally didn't stop him from getting closer, "Whether you're Lily's daughter or not, whatever your past is—" His fingertips caressed the girl's burgundy bangs, his eyes staring at her sleeping face.

"From the moment you and I met, you will always be Catherine, the person I care about the most."

The black-haired professor slowly lowered his head and landed a light kiss on the red-haired girl's forehead.

A very abrupt shockwave suddenly hit, Snape only felt that it was dark in front of him, and the back of his head hit the stone so hard that he almost fainted in pain, and when he opened his eyes to take a closer look, he found that he was still half-submerged in water, and the surrounding area was still a dark cave.

You did it! Douglas's head suspended in mid-air suddenly opened its mouth and roared, and Snape noticed that the magic fluctuations belonging to Voldemort in Catherine had disappeared, her body temperature was rising, and her breathing and heartbeat had resumed.

"Catherine?" Snape shouted in surprise, and the red-haired girl's eyelids twitched slightly before they slowly opened.

"Professor?" Catherine spat hoarsely, "Douglas? She looked around blankly, "Where the hell is this?" 】

[Sorry! You have left the protective limits of Hogwarts. After Douglas scanned the surroundings with red eyes, he closed his eyes and stuck out his tongue and said, "I only sensed that you are at the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean, as for the specific location, it is up to the two of you to verify it yourself. 】

"The bottom of the Atlantic!" Snape shouted in shock, then glared at the red-haired girl, "What the hell were you thinking?" Catherine! ”

"I just wanted to leave." Catherine blushed and lowered her head with extreme guilt, but accidentally touched Snape's shoulder, causing him to snort, and the red-haired girl quickly got up and looked down at the faint light emitted by Douglas, only to find the wolf on Snape's body, "Professor! You-"

"Can't die!" Snape interrupted her angrily, "Get my wand back first." As for security, the black-haired professor doesn't think that there are still zài around who are not afraid of the thousand-year-old basilisk.

[Don't worry about your wand!] Douglas interjected suddenly, [Salazar has sensed that it is still within range of Hogwarts, I'm going to help you find it now.] With that, it spun around and sprang out, but Catherine and Snape could only judge the speed of its progress from the fast-moving background, but could not make out the direction in which it was heading.

Seeing this, Snape lay down on the ground with confidence, and Catherine immediately took out her wand, used her magic to drain the water around the two of them, and began to examine Snape's wounds and look for suitable healing potions.

Fortunately, the two of them usually carry some commonly used potions with them, and the pocket that is blessed with a permanent infinite expansion charm is difficult to be affected by ordinary external factors, so at this time, Catherine can directly heal most of Snape's injuries.

"Professor, I've helped you calm down the rest of your wounds, but if you don't want to listen to Madam Pomfrey's nagging, I'd better wait for me to get a means of transportation, and then take it back to Hogwarts honestly." Catherine cleaned up the potions scattered all over the floor, trying to persuade Snape who was about to get up and move.

"Are you sure that with your current magic, you can conjure something suitable for underground walking, and keep it moving smoothly to Hogwarts?" Snape stood up and walked slowly a few steps, adjusting to the changes in himself, "The most important thing is, do you know how far we are from Hogwarts now?" ”

[According to my senses, you are probably in the center of the Atlantic Ocean, and to be honest, I am also curious how you got there? Douglas, who was on his way, suddenly stopped and complained.

[What's more, the first time you left Hogwarts, Albus's kid noticed it, and he also sent his phoenix pet, but there has always been a force around you that restrained the phoenix's teleportation ability, otherwise, it would have brought you back a long time ago, so Albus now has to temporarily conceal the news of your disappearance to avoid ......]

"Have you said enough! Where's my wand? Snape shouted, and Douglas honestly shut his mouth and raised a wand in front of his head with the tip of his tail.

Snape reached for it, but his fingertips ran straight through Douglas's head, and then he remembered that it was just a phantom. (To be continued......)
