In This Hogwarts Without a Savior Chapter 431

  Chapter 431 429. Immortal

   "This is the position you gave?"

   Lily clenched her wand tightly, as if she was not satisfied with Snape's broad answer.

  Snape said indifferently.

   "So I said three questions. Telling you that I will not leave the UK is already my greatest sincerity. Otherwise, what do you think? Let me just throw myself into the trap like this?"

  Lily just stared at him quietly, as if she had no more rebuttals to Snape's words, but was waiting for him to ask a second question.

  Snape only had one face in the flames, but Jon looked at the expressionless face, and for some reason, he always felt that he must be twisting his fingers nervously and uneasily.

   "I really want to know, do you know what James did to me back then? And when did you get together?"

  Jon secretly covered his face aside.

Snape's two questions made all his previous ambiguity in vain. A normal person can figure it out if he really hates and resents Lily. , and will not care about these issues.

   Lily didn't know if she had thought of this, but when Snape asked the question, the expression on her face still didn't change a bit, she just stared indifferently at the human face made of green flames.

"You still care about this? That's why I said, you have never listened to others, and you have never changed. Of course I know what James did to you, so my impression of him at that time was always the same. Very bad, no matter how much he tried to attract my attention and pursue me, I never thought about what kind of future I would have with him."

  When Snape heard this, he gritted his teeth subconsciously, and said in a voice that pretended to be calm as much as possible.

   "Then why later..."

"What makes him stronger than you is that he knows how to change himself. No one can make mistakes, but if you make a mistake, you must know how to change it, especially after it is pointed out by others. James changed it, Not only because he knew that I didn't like it, but because he recognized that what he did before was wrong, he sincerely apologized, and was willing to correct it, and it was precisely because of this that I accepted him at that time. Is my answer clear enough?"

  Snape lowered his head, the flames formed by the floo powder became somewhat blurred, making it impossible to see the expression on his face at this moment.

  But what Jon can be sure of is that the Hogwarts vice-principal, who was once under one person and above ten thousand people in the UK, will definitely not have a very good-looking expression.

  After his sweetheart exposed the gap between him and his enemy so decisively and directly, no one would show a good face.

   After a long time, he raised his head again. There was no special emotion on that face, but he just completed the second transaction he promised.

"If you want to find me, I suggest you go faster, because my previous master hasn't discovered my importance yet, if you wait for him to find out, you won't be the only ones who want to find me. "

  After Lily heard the news, her face darkened.

   "Is this a piece of information?"

  Snape held his head up.

"Why not? How long do you think you guys can keep my escape from prison hidden? As long as this story gets out, you are not the only ones who want to find me. You know in advance what kind of competitors you will have. , isn't this a very important thing?"

   Lily took a deep breath, she didn't dwell on this matter for long, but continued to ask.

   "What about the third question?"

  Snape didn't stay silent either, he asked a question that sounded very simple in a low voice.

   "We're meant to be immortal, aren't we?"

   Lily didn't answer right away, she just stared at those eyes and asked indifferently.

"What do you think?"

   This has already given the answer, and Snape doesn't need to ask any more questions.

  He closed his eyes, then opened them again two seconds later.

   "Come on then."

  He seemed to stand up from the chair, and did not give Lily the location information of the third transaction as agreed.

   But the picture presented by the Floo fan is constantly expanding, not only Snape's face, but also several things around him and the background.

   Then the flame suddenly went out, and the whole room fell silent, leaving only the dust in the fireplace still rippling in the air.

  Jon stood up from his chair consciously. He knew that the melon eating time was over, and he was going to continue with his business.

   "It's disgusting, he didn't keep his promise, agreed three questions and three location information, but the last one just left without saying anything!"

  He said this on purpose, he just wanted to test how Lily's mood is now, and whether he needs to ease it up.

   Lily just walked back toward the fireplace.

   "He did not breach the contract, the last message has been given to us, I know where he is now."

  Jon blinked and followed Lily's pace. This time they disappeared into the fire of the fireplace again, and when they reappeared, they had already arrived at a magic joke shop on a bustling magic street.

  Diagon Alley, the busiest street in the British wizarding world, even in the era when Voldemort ruled Britain, there was no way to change its status among wizards.

   After Jon and Lily walked out of the fireplace, they discovered that this was the storage room of the store, and the fireplace used to receive it was hidden behind a pile of wooden barrels and wooden boxes.

   This is the place where Dumbledore entrusted Lily before she left, and where she can obtain a legal identity in England.

   "If we waste time here, then go find Snape, won't he definitely run away?"

  Jon asked in a low voice.

Lily did not disturb the shop assistants and shop owners who were busy outside, but searched in this storage room, and soon opened a hidden compartment under a small phoenix imprint, in which were hidden several simple parchment.

   "As he himself said, it is impossible for him to throw himself into the trap after escaping from prison. Since he dared to disclose his location to us so safely, it means that he is not afraid that we will find him next time."

   Lily handed one of the parchments to Jon, which was a legal and traceable half-blood wizard identity information in the British wizarding world.

  Dumbledore was very well prepared, and Jon even wondered if he had already planned to let him come to England with Lily, and even the identity information they got now was a pair of mother and child.

  Jon memorized the contents of the parchment, and then asked.

   "So we have to prepare for a long war?"

   "He told us that his former master would soon discover his importance and come to him, so it's best not to expose our next actions, otherwise we will only have more troubles in the future."

  Her words completely reassured Jon. Now Lily's state is at least not overwhelmed by hatred. She has always been very clear about what she wants to do, and at the same time, she has a clear judgment on how to do it.

In this way, Jon doesn't have to interfere with her decision. As long as Dumbledore said, in an absolutely dangerous situation, he can save Lily. At other times, he can just follow An Xin as a person. The people who eat melons act as thugs at most.

  After the magic joke shop obtained the legal certificate that they could operate in the UK, they didn't stay, and then they left Diagon Alley and came to a gray city through apparation.

  No matter where you are in the city, you can see several big chimneys, which makes people feel that black smoke is constantly billowing out all the time.

  The city is located on the edge of a dirty river. There are many fried fish and potato chip wrappers scattered around the river bank. The river water is also black and there is no sign of life in it.

  In a typical industrial city, the living environment is extremely bad. Just living here, it is estimated that I will not have a good mood every day.

   "Where is this place? Professor Potter." Jon asked involuntarily, breathing the tar-smelling air.

   "Cockworth, my former home."

  After hearing this answer, Jon raised his eyebrows and didn't continue to ask.

   Then Lily led the way, and the two soon came to a shabby Muggle alley called Spider's End Alley.

   There are rows of dilapidated brick houses in the alley, and the windows on the houses are dark and lifeless during the day.

  The dirty river is right next to the Spider's End Alley, and the stench from the river is not very strong, because the alley itself is already stinky enough.

   Lily took Jon to the last two-story house at the end of the alley, and the two stopped there.

   This house looks nothing special compared to the surrounding buildings. The door is not locked, and you can walk in with a light push.

   Discovering that Jon was looking around, Lily took the initiative to speak.

   "This is Snape's home."

Jon couldn't help subconsciously thinking about the meaning of this sentence. Although Snape's home sounds very inconsistent, he didn't jump out of some rock after all. This so-called his home , which was the place where his parents gave birth to him and raised him.

   After re-observing the dirty alley where the house was located, relevant information about Lily and Snape flooded into Jon's mind.

   If he remembered correctly, Lily and Snape should have lived in the same alley and had grown up together as childhood sweethearts.

   But soon he didn't have time to think about it anymore, because Lily had already walked into the room without any protective measures, and Jon could only speed up his pace to follow.

  The house is very messy, all kinds of furniture have obviously been rummaged deliberately by someone, and they are randomly discarded everywhere. Even the murals on the wall are hanging crookedly on the wall as if they have been inspected by someone.

"This place was searched by Death Eaters?" It's easy, Jon can guess what happened here before, "Snape was taken away by us, and the Death Eaters thoroughly searched the place where he used to live Normal thing, but if that's the case, is there any chance they'll leave Aurors around to watch over here?"

   Just as Jon was looking at some hidden places in the alley that were suitable for hiding and observing, Lily had already checked the fireplace full of half-burned firewood.

   "He met us here before." Lily looked towards the direction facing the fireplace, which was the background where Snape was finally revealed before ending the Floo powder transmission screen.

   "If he dares to come back here, and doesn't return to the side of the master who abandoned him, it means that there are no Aurors around to watch."

   As she spoke, Lily picked up and threw it by the fireplace, a copy of the Daily Prophet with a new date.

The front page of the news has long stopped reporting on the Triwizard Tournament. As the ultimate loser, the British side naturally wants to minimize the impact of the lost Triwizard Tournament on the British wizards. The easiest thing to do is to try to Don't mention it, then one day, people will be attracted by other things and take the initiative to turn it.

  The recent news is basically about changes in positions within the Ministry of Magic.

First of all, the head of the office of the Auror Command has changed. Everyone is guessing that Draco's terrible performance in the Triwizard Tournament must have angered that gentleman. Lucius was also angered by this, and he lost The position in the Ministry of Magic is now idle at home all day long.

Then there are other important departments, basically they have been changed all over again. Even Slughorn, who has been "conscientious" as the director of the International Magic Cooperation Department for the past two years, has been "leveled" from the position of director. "To the Secretary's Department in the Office of the Minister for Magic.

These revealed very unusual signals, and even more extraordinary, in the second edition of the Prophet's Daily Edition, it was vaguely revealed that the great gentleman seemed to want to establish a brand new magic school in England recently rumors.

  The story in the newspapers was so convincing, it was as if the reporter who wrote the article had seen the new wizarding school being established with his own eyes.

   But Jon, who saw the news, didn't believe half of the letters written on it.

  The fact that Voldemort wants to establish a new magic school is simply nonsense, at most it is just an excuse to appease the emotions of wizards in Britain.

   Leaving aside whether he still has the energy to build a magic school, even if he does build it, what about the students?

  The pure-blood and half-blood little wizards who were suitable for admission before were all brought to France by Dumbledore!

   Now Voldemort's newly established magic school is going to start teaching again from recruiting first-year students?

   This is obviously impossible, but the so-called establishment of a new magic school sounds very exciting for a while, but wizards are not fools, and they will quickly realize that this rumor is simply a joke.
