When the food on the table and the dessert were gone, Dumbledore stood up again.

He looked at the quiet auditorium and said slowly, "Oh, now that everyone is full and full of drink, then please listen to me and say a few more words to everyone." At the beginning of the semester, I would like to make a few points to note with you. ”

"First-year students should note that the woods on campus are forbidden and are not allowed to enter, and some of the older students should also remember this."

Dumbledore said as he glanced at the Weasley twins with his shining gaze.

In the last semester, the Weasley twins had run into the Forbidden Forest a lot, and on two occasions Severus had brought them out.

For this, Gryffindor has no less points deducted.

"Also, Mr. Filch, the administrator, wants me to remind everyone not to do magic in the hallway between classes."

"The Quidditch player review will take place in the second week of the term, so students who are interested in participating in the House's Quidditch team should contact Lady Hooch."

"Finally, I must tell you that anyone who does not want to suffer an accident or a painful death should not enter the corridor on the right side of the fourth floor."

After Dumbledore finished speaking, the students in the entire auditorium were thoughtful, and Harry was the only one laughing.

Severus frowned and stared at the "dead" savior.

There is a saying that the more you laugh now, the worse your luck will be in the future!

"Now," Dumbledore continued, "before we go to bed, let's sing the school song!" ”

Dumbledore spoke loudly, but several of the teachers in the teacher's box were a little distorted.

In fact, Severus asked Setina to compose a school song, and it was good, but Dumbledore was adamant not to use it.

"It's good for everyone to choose their own tune, and there's no one-size-fits-all style at Hogwarts." Dumbledore was still saying something at the time, "Severus, you have to let go a little!" ”

That's it, the old bee blinked ambiguously when he said it!

As a result, singing the school song is still the last part that Severus wants to face at the beginning of school!

According to a professor who did not want to be named, Hogwarts used to have a tune.

So, Severus has reason to believe that this is all the bad taste of the old bee.

Everyone finished singing the school song in a scattered manner, except for the Weasley twins who continued to sing to the slow melody of "Funeral March".

Dumbledore also conducted the two of them with his wand until they finished singing and applauded loudly.

I don't know what tunes the twins will use next year, forget about "Wedding March", the rhythm is too fast, and the twins obviously prefer slower-paced tunes.

Eventually, the students followed the prefects back to the common room to sleep, and the deans also left.

The dean's condolences on the first day of school were common, but Severus didn't say anything, and he quickly left the cellar to let the students rest.

After a day of train rides, muddy paths, and boats, the new students are now exhausted, and except for Harry Potter, who is too excited, normal students are in a hurry to go to bed!

But Severus certainly wouldn't sleep right now.

He spoke to a few of the sixth-year students about class selection, then with the Slytherin prefects, and it was almost time for curfew before Severus walked out of the office.

Although Dumbledore had already summoned several professors in the afternoon to discuss the protection of the Philosopher's Stone, he did not say anything substantial due to the early departure of Hagrid and Professor McGonagall.

So the professors are summoned again tonight.

This time, though, there were only four deans of the colleges.

By the time Severus arrived at the Headmaster's office, the others hadn't arrived, and even Dumbledore didn't know where he had gone.

The entire headmaster's room was filled with the sound of silver turning, and the smoke from the pointed mouth made it still look fantastical.

But it's not the same as it used to be.

As soon as he entered the door, Severus saw a large glass mirror, which he placed in front of the portraits of the headmasters, and the long curtain on the wall covered it, but Severus recognized it.

"Mirror of Eris!"

Severus muttered under his breath.

Severus also searched for the mirror for a while, but couldn't find it, and it is not known where Dumbledore hid it.

I guess it's going to be taken out now to lay out the level.

He stepped forward, pulled back the curtains, and ignored the nagging of the previous principals.

Severus walked straight to the Mirror of Eris.

He wanted to know what he wanted most in his heart.

It's something Severus himself isn't quite sure about.

Getting stronger?

He's sure no, getting stronger is just to survive.

What's the point of becoming stronger if you can't enjoy life!

The Mirror of Eris was like an ordinary mirror, first of all Severus himself, and then very quickly, he became a beautiful young woman with emerald green eyes, Lily. Evans.

Severus frowned,

This young woman was not what she wanted, it was what Professor Snape wanted most in his heart.

Immediately afterwards, the scenery in the mirror changed again, and the old buildings inside slowly became more modern, and TVs, air conditioners, etc. were displayed inside.

That was Zhang Jin's home, the living room.

There are three people sitting on the sofa in the living room, Zhang Jin and his parents, and there is a familiar picture on TV, although they don't like to watch it every year.

But the three people in the mirror just watched with relish.

Family?

Severeston lived.

Although there is less contact with family after work, it is undeniable that family is the concern of every flower grower.

Looking at the Magic Mirror again, Severus saw that there seemed to be two more figures in the direction of the kitchen, but they weren't really visible.

By the time Severus wanted to take a closer look, the picture changed again, this time to something more familiar to him - his cell phone from his previous life!

Severus Black Line!

Although he did complain that there is no smart phone here, and he can't even access the Internet, but he has been used to it for so many years, okay, what kind of trouble does this mobile phone want to make?!

Am I the kind of person who is anxious about renewal?

Isn't it just that it's been chasing for five years and it's not over?

It's a big deal that I tied up the author and let her write in front of me!

Severus thought viciously, he felt that the Mirror of Eris was not reliable at all.

At the same time, the Eris Mirror seemed to realize that it was unreliable, and it quickly wiped off the phone and replaced it with a different picture.

At this time, the picture is a little blurry, I don't know if Severus's desire is not strong enough or if he has reached the limit of the Eris Magic Mirror.

Severus could only vaguely see that they were the same figures, seemingly doing something in different places.

That's me.

Soon, Severus realized that the shadow was himself, and he couldn't see what he was doing.

His eyes widened to take a closer look at the images.

"Close your eyes, Severus!"

A voice burst forth, and Severus turned back, and the images vanished.

"Are you alright?" Professor Dumbledore approached Severus a little nervously, and he raised his wand as if to examine Severus.

Then Professor McGonagall and Professor Sprout ran out from behind Dumbledore, and Professor Flitwick slipped through Dumbledore's legs.

They all looked nervous.

"What can I do?" Severus first stopped Dumbledore's physical examination, then glanced back at the Mirror of Eris.

It's like a normal mirror now, and there's no longer the picture it just had.

"Are you alright?" Dumbledore said, "Just now the portrait told me that you were crying and smiling in front of the Mirror of Eris, and you were gritting your teeth the next, and we saw your round eyes when we first came, and you told me you were okay?" ”

Dumbledore's expression was clear in disbelief.

Professor McGonagall and Professor Sprout also look like they care about teenagers.

Severus grimaced, and he didn't know how to explain it.

"This is the mirror of Eris, Severus, which allows us to see only the most urgent and intense desires of our hearts. However, it can neither teach us knowledge nor tell us the truth, and people can only waste their time in front of it. Many people are obsessed with what they see and are even driven crazy because they don't know if everything in the mirror is real and achievable. ”

Professor Flitwick saw Severus's appearance and thought he didn't know what it was, so he kindly explained it to him.

Severus's face continued to turn cold, and he didn't say anything.

"It's useless to indulge in illusory dreams and forget about real life, Severus, I thought you knew."

Dumbledore said with a concerned expression, he hadn't shown this expression to Severus in a long time.

There is no way, Severus himself is getting better and better, and even his strength may have to be out of himself, and there was still a problem of lack of experience before, but with the precipitation of a few years, the foundation and experience have been made up, so Dumbledore naturally has no chance to become a kind old man.

So he's more often a tease, a perverted old bee in front of Severus.

"Whatever you see, Severus, remember, reality is what matters!"

This was Dumbledore's biggest concern.

If there is anyone who is most likely to indulge in the Mirror of Eris, then he and Severus who are the most injured are definitely at the top.

However, he didn't expect that Severus's strength was already so strong that he would sink in.

Severus, of course, is not good at explaining anything,

He just said lightly: "I know what I'm doing!" ”

As for whether the old bee believes it or not, it doesn't matter to Severus.
