Chapter 238 Lily and Snape
Potion Class Lab.
This is a room located on the ground floor.
There is indeed a small pavilion above this potion laboratory, filled with dense potion bottles and crucibles, and even some experimental notes are piled up.
"I didn't expect these things to be there..."
Lily's ghost floated up the stairs. She looked at the scattered things and smiled unconsciously: "It seems that there are few students coming here..."
"Um."
Snape nodded indifferently.
This small pavilion was their secret base when they were in school.
Because Professor Slughorn, the teacher of the Potion Class at that time, liked those students with outstanding talents very much, and even liked to hold a slug club. Inviting these students to gather, Lily was naturally one of the guests.
Snape and Lily both have the qualifications to enter and exit this potion laboratory at any time, but the two little guys, who were only in their teens, liked the secret base. They used the small pavilion they discovered as a base for them to store potions and record notes...
later…
The two people had a quarrel...
This place was completely abandoned.
After Snape served as the teacher of the Potions class, students were not allowed to enter here at will, and the secret base between this small pavilion was never discovered by other students.
Lily looked here and said softly: "If you have the chance, it seems that I can continue to study potions at Hogwarts..."
“This is your place.”
Snape's eyes were lowered calmly.
This sentence seemed to answer Lily, as if he was right and wrong, and as if he was expressing his meaning. Snape could always make his mind obscured.
Snape glanced at her ghost and slowly lowered his head: "If nothing happens, I have a potion experiment to do..."
"Um…"
Lily nodded casually.
However, just as Snape was about to go downstairs, Lily suddenly turned to look at his back and whispered to him: "Severus..."
“…”
Snape stopped and slowly turned around.
The woman grabbed her fingers restrainedly and looked at him gently and politely: "Severus... can I... go and help?"
“…”
Snape was stunned for a moment.
"certainly…"
The man nodded almost incredulously and then quickly lowered his head, as if afraid that Lily would find out that his expression was wrong.
Lily slowly floated to him and said with a smile: "I hope my knowledge of potion is of some use..."
“Any knowledge has value.”
Snape looked up and answered seriously.
As he was in his youth, as he loved and believed in potions, he was always very serious in these matters.
In the dim potion laboratory.
The turbulent lamps quietly lit up.
While sorting out the medicinal materials, Snape turned on the alcohol lamp under the crucible. He no longer cared about the results of the experiment tonight. He liked the experiment more than ever.
"The flame is a little higher."
Lily looked at the scene with a smile, stood beside her and whispered to remind him: "You are sorting out the medicinal materials for a few seconds slower than before, and the crucible will boil faster...
When we boil potions, do not let the crucible enter a boiling state before putting the medicinal materials down, so that any material can ensure a perfect ratio.”
“…”
Snape lowered the flame of the alcohol lamp without saying a word.
The laboratory is always calm late at night, with the lab illuminating the laboratory bench under the warm lights, and Snape skillfully boils potions and records notes with a quill pen.
Lily stood beside her and raised her doubts from time to time, occasionally reminding Snape of which data was wrong, as if she was doing a potion experiment like she was when she was a child.
Listen to the gentle voices around you...
Snape's mood gradually calmed down.
Just as the quill in his hand recorded the last number, Lily smiled and suddenly said, "Severus, I'm sorry..."
“…”
The quill in Snape's hand stumbled.
Lily's voice was a little calm, and she whispered about their past: "I always thought our friendship was interrupted for a long time..."
This is the most sincere apology.
Because she always thought she and Snape had already parted ways.
It was not until she died under Voldemort's wand that she discovered that Snape's friend was still caring for her, which made her especially guilty of her past, that they should not have interrupted their friendship.
“…”
Snape's fingers clenched the quill.
The man was extremely uneasy, and he still remembered what Petdragon said when humiliated him. He never seemed to have officially apologized to Lily...
What he didn't expect was...
Lily returned to this world but took the initiative to apologize to him.
However, just as Snape wanted to apologize and say everything, the conversation suddenly retreated...
Snape calmly put the quill on the table, as if he was talking about other people's affairs: "I was the one who said the wrong thing at that time, but I thought we would go a different path sooner or later, so I didn't see you again..."
This man...
Talking about these things that are obviously related to me...
He was as cold and calm as if he was in class.
Even when Lily saw Snape like this, she couldn't help but feel that Snape's friend now seems to care about everything, and even made Lily feel that Snape is a bit unfathomable...
middle…
Is something wrong again?
Lily looked at Snape in a daze and sighed softly: "Sorry, I always thought you had defected to Voldemort..."
"I did defect to the Dark Lord at the beginning."
Snape frowned and interrupted Lily. He was not willing to let her take the mistakes on him...
After saying that, Snape slowly turned his head and looked at Lily. His eyes narrowed slightly, hiding his thoughts.
However, this expression...
Make him look like a proud professor.
When Snape spoke, he still had Slytherin-like arrogance: "I like to learn black magic. I always think that the Dark King is a unique black wizard, which can make the wizard stronger, but..."
As he said this, Snape's voice suddenly stopped. He glanced at Lily deeply, then turned his head suddenly, as if he didn't want to talk about what happened later.
“But what?”
Lily asked curiously.
"but…"
Snape took a deep breath, lowered his head to pack up his notes, as if he was a little contemptuous and contempt, and cursed rarely: "He is a cold idiot who doesn't understand feelings!"
This sentence...
Maybe it's scolding Voldemort...
Perhaps it's also scolding yourself who is not good at it.
