The second day was Sunday, a rare good weather, the sun was not so dazzling, hanging lazily in the sky, cloudless, and the breeze blew from time to time, which made people feel refreshed.

After a brief breakfast, Snape and Sally arrived at the Quidditch pitch on time at nine o'clock, perhaps because of the good weather, there were more people on the pitch than usual today.

"Sally, here. Lily waved from her best spot in the middle of the stands, and Sally and Snape walked over and sat down next to her. "Sister, you're here so early. ”

"No, we didn't arrive until about eight o'clock. Lily said as Sirius walked over with two hot drinks.

"Sally, you're here. Sirius squeezed Lily's place very, very naturally, and sat on the other side of Sally, not because he didn't want to squeeze Snape away, but from the moment he appeared with a drink, Snape looked at him with a knowing look, as if he saw through his plan, so he had to let Lily move to the side.

"Well, what are you serving?" asked Sally, curiously.

"Would you like a taste of the pumpkin juice from the restaurant?" Sirius asked, handing Sally a glass. Sally took a sip, "Wow, it's delicious, is it a new variety?" Severus, you taste." She handed the pumpkin juice to Snape, who took it, glanced at Sirius, and took a big sip with an unconcealed smile on his lips.

"Is it delicious?" "Well, it's delicious." Snape gave the pumpkin juice back to Sally.

"Look, it's on. Thankfully, the practice match had now begun, and Sally interrupted the awkward atmosphere at the right time, soothing Sirius with her eyes.

Sirius's first time was completely distracted from the game, it was clear that Sally was next to him, but he couldn't talk at all, Snape drew all of Sally's energy over, carefully explained the rules, techniques, tactics to her, and damn it, even more professional than he spoke.

How could Snape not know Sirius's thoughts, for God's sake, although he was not the best expert in Quidditch in his previous life, he was also a professional Quidditch referee, whether it was the knowledge of the game or the understanding of Quidditch, he was much more seen and more professional than these hairy boys.

It's just that he didn't expect that he should be an adult in his forties psychologically, but he is still here to be more serious with these thirteen-year-old children, and he is enjoying it.

"It seems that Snape is also very good at Quidditch. After Sally inadvertently showed adoration for Snape for the Nth time, Sirius finally couldn't help but interrupt forcefully.

"I'm not good at it, but I just know something. Snape said modestly, but his eyes seemed to say, "That's right, I'm better than you, how about it?"

Sirius, what a proud man, how he endured this provocation, he said impulsively, "Then let's compare." ”

"Huh?" Sally looked at Sirius puzzled, "Bibi?"

"Yes, you and me, let's compare ... Before he could finish his sentence, he was interrupted, and a Slytherin senior came over, leaned down, and whispered something into Snape's ear, and Lily and the others saw the badge on his chest.

Snape's expression became serious, and Senior Slytherin stood up after speaking, and did not leave, as if waiting for Snape's response, and after a while, Snape said, "I know, go over immediately." ”

After Senior Slytherin left, Sally clutched Snape's clothes, "Where are you going? ”

Snape glanced at Sally, then at Lily, Sirius, and Lupin, and she took Sally's hand and took her hand off the hem of his coat.

"I'll be back soon, okay?" said Snape, "The Dean has something to ask me for, and I'll be right back." ”

"But... "Don't worry, I won't leave the school, Hogwarts is safe, remember?"

"Okay. Sally finally let go of her hand. "Then you must come back quickly. ”

"Don't worry. He stood up and looked at Sirius, "Take care of her, please." ”

Sirius didn't know what was going on, but he knew it wasn't easy just by looking at Snape's face, and he nodded. Snape turned and strode away, the Slytherin's green robes blown up in the wind as he walked briskly.

The training match is still going on, but the number of people in the stands is gradually increasing.

"Are you sure it's the Dark Lord?" Snape and Dumbledore stood on the roof of the main Hogwarts building, watching the smoke billowing from the horizon not far from Hogwarts.

"This doesn't need proof, in this day and age, he is the only one who can muster such a large force to search for Hogwarts in a sweeping way. Dumbledore frowned, "But I didn't think about it... He was able to find it. It seems that Armando has become more than lucky. ”

Snape understood what he meant, he had been the headmaster of Hogwarts in his previous life, and understood that the headmaster was the secret of Hogwarts, and only the headmaster could expose the secrets of Hogwarts, Armando was the previous headmaster of Dumbledore, although he was old, but his health was still healthy, he had worked at Hogwarts all his life, even if he was not the headmaster, he must have known some ways to sense the existence of Hogwarts, and...

"It seems that we pushed him too hard. A cruel smile tugged at the corners of Snape's mouth, and the expression on his face did not look like that of a thirteen-year-old at all.

"We destroy every Horcrux he makes, which has undoubtedly ruined his entire plan, and his desperate gamble is also expected by us, but we didn't expect him to be crazy enough to attack Hogwarts, I heard, he was like this in the previous life?"

"Something similar, but Hogwarts is really not indestructible. ”

"Even an unbreakable oath can be broken, let alone something like a non-disclosure agreement. Dumbledore looked at the billowing smoke, "Now I just hope that the Ministry of Magic and the Order of the Phoenix can come over as soon as possible." ”

"It's not that easy. Snape said this, and neither of them spoke. That's right, the Dark Lord blocked all of his net worth this time, and they all know how powerful his power is, it is foolish to hope to give it to others at this time, they can only rely on themselves.

Hogwarts is like a peach blossom paradise, peaceful and quiet, but everyone doesn't know that the outside world has long been a bloody storm.

Quidditch field

"Why are we all here?" Sally and Sirius switched places as the crowd grew, sitting between him and Lily, already filled with people.

"I don't know, we listened to the prefect and the dean, what about you?"

"So do we, but what the hell is going on? Why doesn't anyone know?" The noisy conversation next to them came into their ears from time to time, and Sally and the others knew that this reason was inseparable from Snape's departure.

"I want to go to him. Sally got up for the third time and was held down by Lily, "Don't be impulsive, Snape must have asked you to stay here, there must be a reason for him, and now that the students are gathered here, it means that this must be a relatively safe place." ”

"But why can't Severus stay in a safe place?" Sally tried desperately not to cry, but the aggrieved tone in her tone could no longer be hidden. Lily put her arms around Sally and comforted her. "It's all right, we have to trust Snape, trust the teachers, don't we?" she said, but she looked around the field, estimating how many teachers were staying here.

"Sally, do you have your wand?" asked Lily, thinking that it might be more serious than she thought.

"Brought it. Sally pulled her wand out of her sleeve. Severus said that no matter where he was, never leave his wand. ”

"Good. Lily said, "You have to be strong, do you hear me?" to protect yourself from Snape, understand?"

Sally nodded. Wipe away the tears that did not fall in the eye sockets at once, "Understood." ”
