Chapter 970 [Chapter 5] 55
That night Snape didn't sleep well, and all kinds of absurd and strange dreams appeared one after another, tormenting his nerves.
When it was almost dawn, he woke up from his dream, touched his neck, and found that he had broken out in a cold sweat at some point.
The dream just now was too scary, so scary that people thought it was the truth of everything.
He dreamed that Lily hadn't had any broom accidents caused by James Potter hitting her in fourth grade.Of course, she didn't have the tricks of claiming to have amnesia when she woke up in a coma after being injured in the school hospital.The soul in that body, from beginning to end, is the real Lily.The impostor never showed up.
In the dream, life continued smoothly along a path he had never seen before and could hardly imagine.Lily alienated him who pursued black magic, and naturally got closer to the arrogant Bert who pursued her crazily, just like the life he was familiar with; next, Lily and Potter finally came together, after graduation Married and settled down in Godric's Hollow.In the dream, they both made Aurors, and then Lily gave birth to that savior boy Harry Potter...
He began to feel that his memory was confused, and he seemed to feel that this was not just a crazy dream.
Lily's trajectory in this life is also like this.He meant, the real Lily.
Although she became Beryl Foggton, she still married James Potter, became an Auror, gave birth to Harry Potter, and then died at the hands of Voldemort with that arrogant mad Potter, Only the troublemaker named Harry Potter was left to be protected by him.
Of course, in order to protect that Harry Potter, he must be sent to the Muggle world as a baby to find his blood relatives—in the dream, the person who was responsible for raising him but also treated him badly did not Undoubtedly Lily's older sister, Petunia Evans - yet, again, in the dream, there is no social worker posing as an unmarried old girl to knock on the door of Beryl Fogerton's Squib brother , under the guise of a social worker's home visit to visit and visit Harry Potter's woman, that cunning, clever, counterfeit who can turn 1 thoughts in his head in a minute to deceive people!
In that crazy, chaotic, and real dream that almost made him have an illusion, the difference from the reality he experienced was that there was no trace of the impostor in all the stories.
At the Black Lake, when Potter insulted him rudely, although Lily stopped him, she didn't yell at him angrily—he even hung upside down at the moment when he was hanging upside down, From his chaotic and upside-down vision, he caught the unnatural twitch on Lily's face—as if trying to hold back a subconscious sense of amusedness.
Of course, after he couldn't help shouting the rude word "Mudblood" at Lily, Lily didn't throw white gloves at him to fight him, but simply broke off with him .
Without that duel, his reputation at Hogwarts would have plummeted even more.Lily refused to pay any attention to him, and those Gryffindors looked at him like a rag in the corner, with contempt and disgust; inside Slytherin, many people thought he was killed by the Black Lake. The bullying by the Predators was a disgrace to Slytherin, and even intentionally or unintentionally snubbed and squeezed him out...
Then, it was the Dark Lord who extended a pretended friendly hand to him.His life proceeded and fell along a path similar to this life. He heard the prophecy, told the Dark Lord, and turned to Dumbledore in embarrassment because he knew that the people in the prophecy were Lily and her son. ; on that fateful Halloween night, he rushed outside the house in Godric's Hollow, but saw the dark mark that had not dissipated in the night sky above the house; then, when he hugged Lily's dead body and cried bitterly At that time, no one would quietly walk into the cold room mixed with the cry of the baby and the breath of death from the door, and gently pick up little Harry who was still crying in the crib. , and then looked at him with sympathetic, soft and sad eyes, trying in vain to find a way to create an alibi for him before those members of the Order of the Phoenix arrived.
Also, after Lily's sacrifice, no one except Dumbledore would be willing to sacrifice his reputation to testify for him, just to let him be exonerated in the Wizengamot's court, let alone Dumbledore. During such a long time, he smiled gently at him from beginning to end, stubbornly faced his coldness and hostility to approach and care for him, handed over the Potter boy's wand in order to protect him in the screaming shack, and stood under the Whomping Willow. In order to save him, he confronted the dangerous werewolf, used the horn of the horned camel to lure him at the Christmas ball jointly held by the three schools, and tricked him into a dance with sweet words——
Snape was no longer sleepy.He sat up suddenly from the bed, turned over and got out of bed, walked to the window without turning on the light, and opened the curtains.
The principal's office on the eighth floor should be one of the rooms with the best view in the entire castle.Looking down at the entire Hogwarts in the early morning light, he saw the hazy mist before dawn lingering in the nearby mountains and forests, and the water surface was as quiet as a piece of light-colored silk.
Yesterday's great battle destroyed many places. He saw broken bricks everywhere, but it still didn't destroy the beauty of Hogwarts. Instead, it gave it a broken and eternal beauty.
really.Time is not, life is not, only Hogwarts is eternal.
really.He thought that no matter how the world changed, Lily Evans' choice would not change.
What has changed is who she is, to be precise, who lives in her body.
Abandoning all the previous responsibilities and pressures, he was able to think about the whole thing very calmly for the first time, but the more he thought about it, the more foggy he felt.
His fingers caressed the window lattice.In the dim light coming in from the window, the hand with slightly yellow fingertips from making potions from time to time tapped the glass on the window lightly, blue blood vessels could be faintly seen on the back of the pale hand.Blood flows in it.
This is a living hand.Severus Snape's hand.
The reason why he can still stand here today, looking out the window quietly, being awakened from a deep sleep by a nightmare, and later repeating the same life as before, dealing with trivial matters, being annoyed by Dumbledore with a headache, and Little trolls fighting with their brains forever stuffed with achnatherum - all because of her.That fake Lily.
She cleared his reputation, clarified his secret mission and true purpose, and died in his place - although there is no evidence to support his inference, he is almost certain that Dumbledore died in the Forbidden Forest In the hand-to-hand battle between the Death Eaters and the Phoenix—the reason why she chased him, with a look of grief and madness on her face, and raging anger in her eyes, as if she wanted to fight him to the death, was just for Defeat him for a valid reason, use the Disarming Charm on him so Voldemort will think she is the current owner of the Elder Wand, not him.
Moreover, he had to admit that he had also sensed Voldemort's vague killing intent towards him in Malfoy Manor.The Dark Lord was not one to be merciful, or to be easily deceived by a child like the Potter Kid.Even if he had pulled out of Harry Potter's mind the laws Dumbledore had taught him about how the Elder Wand accepted its new master, he would rather kill a thousand by mistake than miss one.
Snape guessed that the Dark Lord was planning to kill the most obvious candidate first - Lily Evans; and then when he sent Snape to that room, Snape's own doom was coming - Orochi Genie is still in that room.And Lily Evans is dead, it is impossible to help him kill Nagini.Even if Lily still had breath, even if she still had the strength to help him kill the snake, the Dark Lord stood behind him and would not give him time to fight or hide.The Dark Lord doesn't want to take any chances, he wants to make sure he gets the Elder Wand, so he'll kill off both of the new owners the Elder Wand might identify with after Dumbledore's death—
But that fake Lily's plan spoils it all.Even thinking about it now, Snape had to admit that it was his only life.She didn't know how to take the big snake Nagini from the heavily guarded Malfoy Manor, and the timing of her disappearance was just right-making her eager to recover her last Horcrux and eager to go to Hogwarts Voldemort, who had killed Harry Potter, had to temporarily spare Snape's life so that he could find Nagini for himself—
Then, once Snape left Malfoy Manor, Voldemort never had a chance to attack him again; because the Dark Lord had to focus all his energies on how to defeat Harry Potter, the boy who always lived. Oh, what a flawed but perfect adventure plan!It looked as if she had expected every step of the changes since then, but she hadn't thought that she would die at all!
All the nodes in her plan were taking risks and gambling, but she made the right bet every step of the way; the final ending was perfect—except that she also played with her own life.
Snape frowned tightly, and the hand touching the window was suddenly clenched into a fist, and he slammed on the window vigorously, causing the large pane of glass inlaid on the window to buzz.
"Li..." He unconsciously spit out the first syllable of the name, and suddenly woke up again.
This seems to be the first time that when he said the name "Lily", the person he was referring to was not the real Lily, but the impostor—however, the true identity of the impostor was still in the cloud, and was revealed by everyone. A hazy layer of mist shrouded and obscured him; he suddenly realized that he didn't understand her at all, even if he calculated carefully, the two of them had known each other for more than 20 years.
who is she?What does she want?What purpose do you want to achieve?Why is she doing those crazy things?Why do you have to be so... friendly to him despite his sarcasm and cold eyes?In his limited and barren life, why there is such a strange, cunning, lively, disturbing person, who even deceives him while being a good person in the eyes of others, is beyond common sense. Judging woman? ...
"Bigonia Columbine..." He murmured the name, as if chewing on its meaning.
"who are you?"
