Su Shuang's world is collapsing [Comprehensive]

Chapter 1119 [No Responsibility Extra Story Professor Chapter] 18

For some reason, Liu Quan shivered subconsciously.

Although Snape had been speaking to her in various impatient, cold, and gloomy tones, she hadn't met him for a long time with such a threatening voice.So Liu Quan had no psychological expectations at all.

...Aren't they looking forward to the future after separation?At that time, she lost even the only advantage he could still appreciate - the real Lily's body and appearance - and she couldn't believe this arrogant Mr. Wizard who once discriminated against Muggles and radically believed in pure-blood theory , would admire a little exotic Muggle girl.That assumption is a hundred times more unreliable than Voldemort's firm belief that slices can live forever.

Thinking about it this way, she felt as if she could convince herself again.Somewhere in his body surged with courage, Liu Quan bravely opened his eyes and looked directly at Snape's face, saying, "I don't deny that this is also one of my possible options in the future."

After her voice fell, Snape stared at her closely, his eyes were as sharp and cold as a falcon.After a few minutes, he finally figured out that she was not joking, but was telling the truth. He laughed angrily, nodded and said, "Very brave, Miss Wizard."

Liu Quan turned this sentence in his mind and understood what he meant.

He must have been thinking of his parents - a combination of Muggle father and wizard mother.They didn't get along too well, and it didn't end too well; it's a tragedy, isn't it?

But what he didn't know was that she was originally a Muggle.For her, Muggles are the same kind, partners, and an inseparable group, and they must be respected and work hard to get along with each other.In her world, there are no wizards, no magic, no prophecies, and no miracles.

She looked back at him calmly, as if not at all offended by his malicious sarcasm, and replied, "I know how you feel about Muggles, Severus. I'm sure you know how I feel about Muggles too." I was originally from a Muggle family - both Lily and I - and now, I'm just going back to the old world. I hope you will be happy in the future, I also hope that I can be happy as well…”

"And the way you find happiness is to find a husband for yourself?" He couldn't help mocking her sharply, but he didn't see a series of soap bubbles of confusion, anger, indignation, sadness, etc. on her face. The performance of a violent emotional rebound after a puncture.When she said that, it was as if she was convinced that this was her future.

She nodded calmly and said, "Family is conducive to a happy life. Severus, no one can go through life alone and feel happy and fulfilled - at least I can't. My childhood wish was the future." To be able to have a wonderful family of my own, and I think I still want to be. It's as simple as that."

He looked shocked for a moment, as if it hadn't occurred to him that her wish was so simple, so innocent.It took a long time before he rolled his lips and sneered in her familiar contemptuous tone: "It's really... stupid."

Liu Quan nodded slightly, as if he hadn't heard the malicious adjective he just uttered, and replied calmly: "A beautiful family is what I have always pursued... If I don't have one, then I will go and build one myself." .”

Snape lifted his lips harshly, and commented: "You should be able to succeed, after all, haven't you always been like this?... The goal you want to achieve, even at all costs; in this , what other people think and feel, it doesn't matter—”

Liu Quan was slightly taken aback, a little confused about what he was referring to.In the end she decided to bet on the one thing he hated her the most - that she replaced Lily and became the good and trustworthy Gryffindor flower in the eyes of others, but made the real Lily's life so far bleak Down - up.

She sighed and suddenly felt a deep level of exhaustion.

Hadn't they endured enough of the days when they spoke ill of each other and blamed each other?Why do we continue to argue now that the threat of war has been lifted and we can start life again with a smile?

She suddenly felt that she no longer wanted to quarrel with him.I also don't want to make a fuss about any topic that the two sides failed to reach a consensus on.Now, the real Lily was within his reach.As long as he can successfully complete the soul magic, he can obviously get everything he has dreamed of for a long time——

She sighed again, and casually responded as if giving in: "Maybe it's true."

Snape seemed to gasp.He seemed dissatisfied with her concession, and there was a hissing sound between his teeth, as if he was clenching his teeth hard to stop the anger behind his teeth, otherwise they would gush out and pour all over the place. It's like she's on her head.

"I'm assuming you should have some conscience and remember how you used to treat... destroying other people's expectations of the word 'beautiful'... just when others have some inaccuracies about the absurd proposition of 'beautiful future' Realistic expectations, but you—”

Liu Quan was a little surprised, the smile on his face gradually faded, and finally returned to silence.She looked away, looked into the distance, and said softly: "Oh yes, of course I remember those things... those decisions you were forced to make... At that time, you must have hated me very much, right?"

Snape glared at her angrily, making no attempt to answer her.It was as if several big holes could be pierced in her body with just two eyes.

Even if Liu Quan didn't look at him, she could still feel the scorching gaze, which spread like a flame on her body; she pulled up the corners of her lips and smiled lightly as if mocking herself, and said, "If you think I hurt you or anyone else, I can apologize."

Snape gasped in surprise.His voice seemed to be strangled by someone, and the syllables were barely squeezed out of his throat.

"...What? What?! How dare you... Do you think a fluffy apology is enough—"

Liu Quan thought to himself mockingly, maybe the two of them would never be able to reach mutual understanding and mutual forgiveness.

However, she has already apologized.She felt she had done enough.

So she turned her gaze again, and her eyes fell on Severus Snape's face.

"Speaking of which, I want to thank you for everything you've done for me, Severus," she said slowly.

"I remember you once said that everything is over... I refused to accept it at the time, and I thought it was not the time yet... But now, I have to admit that you are right. Now, it is that time. Regardless of me Whether I still miss those things, I have to let go of them all and move on... Everything is indeed over—"

She stared into the bottomless eyes of the man in front of her, syllable by syllable the word she had always remembered deeply.

"Everything."

Snape seemed very shocked, the fluorescent light on the tip of the wand in his hand flickered suddenly, and the halo slipped from between them.All of a sudden, the only source of light she could use to see his expression was the moonlight cast into the castle from the high stained windows—whether it was because of this, his face looked a little blue now.

"...Very good." He finally squeezed out a few syllables between his teeth.

"Your careful planning for the future is just like what you did here—everything is carefully planned, designed in advance, without any flaws, and is beneficial to yourself..." He nodded, as if he was still in a good mood. As if agreeing with what she said just now, the speed of speaking seemed to be getting faster and faster; then finally he seemed to realize something, and stopped all of a sudden.

"I have to admit..." He paused for a moment, then changed his tone—hypocritical, with a smirk, silky and almost cold.

"You planned everything perfectly—everything, as you just said."

After many years, that word was uttered from his mouth again; Liu Quan felt a little dazed for a while, as if they were still in that old house at the moment, after listening to him rejecting her request for help, Watching him step into the fireplace and leave without looking back.

Just like today.

Snape turned and strode away.Under the reflection of the moonlight cast by the high window, his black robe was billowing, his steps were hasty, and his aura was terrifying.

Liu Quan stood behind him, staring blankly at the back of him striding away angrily after a disagreement; after some time, she subconsciously curled her fingers, but suddenly felt the tightness she was still holding in her hand. That wand box.

She lowered her head, tightened her five fingers, and held the repaired willow wand tightly in her hand.

In front of her, in the seemingly endless corridor, the billowing figure in black robe had gone away.

She knew that he would not look back, just like when he was parting countless times before.He always rolled his black robe, strode away, never stopped, never looked back, and left everything behind.

...but why bring it to her now, after the wand has been repaired?Wait a few more days and hand it over to the real Lily, wouldn't that be enough?

She suddenly broke into a silent laugh, shook her head lightly, and said in a low voice as if talking to herself: "...Really, I don't understand—"

In Hogwarts in the middle of the night, there was only a ray of bluish-white moonlight shining on the corridor; the surroundings were completely silent, and his footsteps could not even be heard.

She moved her lips slowly, and let out a soft, silent whisper from between her teeth.

"You may suspect that the stars are flames..."

Her nose was sore for no reason.But she held back tenaciously.After taking a few deep breaths with a little force, she suppressed a sigh that almost came out of her throat.

"Doubt the sun will move..."

He'll never know what she's talking about.He will never know what kind of poem it is.Because he hates everything Muggle.Unfortunately, she's actually a Muggle through and through.She too was part of all that he hated.

fair enough.He doesn't have to know all this.Because like he said 17 years ago, it's all over.

Everything.

"To doubt the truth...is a lie..."

Every time she said a word, her throat was constricted badly.There seemed to be a heavy stone in her throat, and she rolled up and down every time she uttered a syllable, making the soft flesh in her throat swell and ache.Her speaking speed was getting slower and slower, but his leaving footsteps in her vision were as fast as ever.His back was as imposing as in her memory, and she knew that she might lose her right to leave after looking at this back in the near future.

"But absolutely...don't doubt—"

She finally stopped.

Strangely, the eye sockets were extremely dry, as if the weak watery light that should have been dried up in the past time.

Now that they have finally won, the situation between them is almost exactly the same as before.Every meeting is filled with hatred and resentment that seem to be unforgettable, and every parting may be the last meeting in this life.

His back finally turned around the corner at the end of the corridor and disappeared from her sight.Her voice was so soft that he couldn't have heard it even without the Silencing Charm.

She swallowed back the last three words.

There is nothing more to say.

He survived, she left, the mission was successfully completed, and the game was over.

Even after living here for more than 20 years, all this is still unreal to her.Even though he has the same warm body as real people, he will age, get hurt, and die just like real people... To her, he is still a line of typeface in a book. Frames on film.Even alive, even in 3D, he is still flat and unreal to her.Even in front of her, he could still disappear like she closed a book.

Now, she just needs to close the book with both hands, and the most important page in her life will be turned over like this.Since then, it has never been found again, and there is no trace to be found again.

Liu Quan closed his eyes.With a hint of coolness, the wind passed through the open window high in the Hogwarts corridor, and it seemed to blow through her body that did not belong to her for a moment.
