[HP] Return to original form

After Madam Pomfrey left, Snape was finally willing to tear himself away from the wall and walked to the hospital bed.

Even though he saw that Evan was acting just now, Snape was stung by his shy look, Evan seemed to have never shown such a shy smile in front of him.

In fact, looking back, Snape’s memories are mostly Evan’s gentle or happy smiles, which are far less vivid than Evan’s expression after separation. Even Evan’s occasional empty expression is his truest appearance. .

Thinking of this, Snape's thought of asking Evan why he visited Gellert right after the start of school also faded away. At this moment, Evan's still pale face made him sigh involuntarily.Snape tried to forget the anger and sadness that had accumulated when he followed Evan all the way to Grindelwald's office last night, and instead asked about Evan's current situation: "How long has your soul been damaged?"

Evan, who was leaning on the bed, seemed a little tired, rubbed his forehead, and said softly: "It is not free to devour Voldemort's soul..."

If there was a vague sigh, Snape's heart tightened. Sure enough, Evan paid a price for being resurrected and became the Dark Lord, and even his soul was hurt.

Snape frowned and said, "I will pay close attention to researching the potion to repair the soul recently." Soul damage is not a trivial matter, and he will do his best to help Evan recover.

"I need the Ravenclaw crown more than the potion..." Evan pointed out the direction to Snape directly, "It hides the power that Voldemort once retained, I need it..."

Ravenclaw crown? !Snape's face changed slightly, he was annoyed and didn't know how to explain it, so he didn't make a sound for a while.And Evan has keenly guessed something from his hesitant expression, and looked at him sharply: "What's wrong?"

"The crown... has been taken by Lily." Snape said with difficulty.At that time, he had just discovered that Evan's death in the cellar was a fake, and he was so excited that he only thought about how to regain Evan's affection. When Lily asked for the Ravenclaw crown, he didn't think much about it and asked her to take the crown away up.If he knew that the crown was very important to Evan, he wouldn't even let Lily touch the crown.But it's useless to say that now...

Snape's gaze, which had been focusing on Evan, met the other's black and white eyes at this moment, as if through the camouflaged black, he could see that the cold red eyes behind him were full of suspicion and ridicule.Snape knew that Evan must have doubted his intentions, thinking that he already knew that the Dark Lord was Evan, and deliberately handed over the crown related to the Dark Lord to Lily.

Snape also knew that it would be useless to explain at this time, so he simply promised, "I will get the crown back."

Evan was obviously very disappointed with him, he didn't want to say anything, and waved his hand casually to signal him to leave.

Snape didn't do what the other party wanted, but waited silently for Evan to lie down again before turning and leaving.Just when Lily came to him, he could take this opportunity to get the crown back.

When Snape returned to the cellar, Lily had already discussed something with Dumbledore, and she was sitting on the sofa waiting for him, but her eyes were blank, as if she was preoccupied.

It wasn't until Snape called her that Lily came to her senses, raised her trademark cheerful smile, and asked, "How is Marvolo's condition? Is the healing potion suitable?"

"I don't have any thoughts yet, I need to conduct detailed research." Snape didn't want to reveal more about Evan, he sat across from Lily, and asked straight to the point: "What do you want from me?"

It seems that Lily's mind has been hanging on this matter, and she didn't continue to chat with Snape for a long time before entering the topic as usual, but said urgently: "Sev, deer eat grass, Lavigne grass, rice Do you have these potion ingredients for Bumibo in stock?"

Snape became vigilant in an instant. The potion ingredients that Lily reported casually seemed to be rare medicinal materials, but the only thing that needed them at the same time was the resurrection potion he had researched!Leaving aside how Lily knew about the potion he researched, it is strange that Lily is now looking for these materials. Could it be that she wants to resurrect someone?

Snape weighed his words and said, "These medicinal materials are very rare... I collected these potions for a long time when I revived you, but now so many years have passed, and the potion materials are basically expired."

"That's right, potion materials can only be stored for two years at most, I should have thought of that earlier." Lily murmured, and then realized that Snape had obviously guessed that she wanted to research the resurrection potion.She smiled in a concealed manner, pretending to be surprised and said: "It turns out that you used so many rare medicinal materials when you resurrected me. I am so grateful to you for being able to get a new life."

Snape ignored Lily's dry thanks, but lowered his voice and whispered: "Lily, you need to tell me what potion you want to make... maybe I can help you see if there are other alternatives Potion ingredients."

Snape's proposal made Lily show a shaken expression, but it seemed that the worries in her heart made it difficult for her to speak, and finally she declined Snape's kindness: "It's really fine, I just want to study potions anyway. It doesn't matter if you have these ingredients or not. I haven't experienced the beauty of potion for a long time, and I still miss it."

If you really just miss the potion, there is absolutely no need to find such a precious medicinal material for experimentation. Making a compound decoction is enough to experience the beauty of boiling the potion in its complicated procedures.However, Snape didn't ask much, he had more important things...

Just as Snape was about to ask for the diadem back, Lily said briskly, "By the way, Sev, I'm afraid it will take some time before I can return the Ravenclaw diadem to you."

Snape frowned: "I just wanted to tell you about this, Dumbledore asked me to get back the crown as soon as possible and unravel the mystery in it, after all, the Dark Lord is getting stronger and stronger now, so we need to make preparations as soon as possible. "

Lily laughed relaxedly: "If that's the case, I just discussed it with Dumbledore. My research on the crown has made some progress, so I still need time to continue the experiment."

"Have you made progress?" Snape was obviously a little surprised by this answer. Facing a Diadem who was almost unresponsive, how could Lily make progress so quickly?

Snape tentatively asked: "I didn't find a breakthrough when I faced the crown, and now I am very curious about the crown, can I also join in the research? It happens that you are usually busy with the Order of the Phoenix and the Ministry of Magic, I can Help you." He had to find a chance to touch the crown, to get it back.

"Oh, no need, you are already busy enough teaching the whole Hogwarts students." Lily refused without thinking.

Snape sighed and looked directly at Lily: "Lily, you know... as long as you need it, I will help you without hesitation."

Lily didn't seem to expect that Snape would break the boundaries they had always kept between each other, and suddenly "showed her true feelings", her expression was a little awkward, and she still said: "The recent research is not very troublesome. Once you encounter difficulties, you will have to A potion master is coming, don't you refuse then?"

Without waiting for Snape to continue persuading, Lily changed the subject and talked about the Ministry of Magic: "Since I dismissed several saint positions, the Death Eaters and Saints are much more peaceful, but the Saints hide So deep that I'm not even sure I've taken out all the Saints lurking in the Ministry of Magic."

"Compared to eradicating the opponent, taking the opportunity to develop yourself is the most important thing." Snape comforted, inquiring about the news of the Order of the Phoenix without any trace, "Have the replacement members been arranged?"

"Yes." Seeing that Snape didn't mention the research, Lily breathed a sigh of relief. In order to cover up her previous gaffe, she counted the arrangements of the Order of the Phoenix in detail, trying to calm herself down: "Lupine recently entered the magical world. Department, replacing a position in the Floo Network Administration. Podmore also entered the Funny Commodity Patent Office. Although these positions are not very important, they can at least develop some influence. The most powerful of them is Shaker, He has made outstanding achievements recently, and I have promoted him to be the head of the Auror Command, so we don't have to worry about controlling Aurors at all..."

Lily felt that she couldn't continue. Snape's eyes always made her feel that all her intentions of using the crown were seen through. Under the restlessness, she chose to chat casually before leaving.

After the door was closed, the cellar was visibly quieter, and Snape let himself sink into the sofa, unable to tell whether it was anger or exhaustion: both Evan and Lily were lying to him...

When he first saw the Dark Lord floating out of the crown, he vaguely guessed that it should contain a fragment of the Dark Lord's soul, otherwise how could a magic item have its own consciousness and even be able to use magic?Even if it was a rare legacy left by a Ravenclaw girl, it wouldn't make it special enough to break the laws of life.

Evan seemed to say frankly that the power of the Dark Lord was hidden in the crown, but he didn't say a word about the important information of the crown.Moreover, Evan was so sure that the crown was in his hands, he must have asked Lucius to divert him and sneaked into the cellar for the purpose of Ravenclaw's crown, and then discovered the secret room by mistake.

Soul damage is not a trivial matter, so what Evan said about the need for a crown to repair the soul should also be true, but he must have other purposes besides that...

And Lily is obviously not as clever as Evan, and she showed very obvious flaws from the very beginning, and her purpose of looking for the potion is probably to restore the dark lord's soul fragment hidden in the crown.But how could she, the leader of the Order of the Phoenix, want to help the Dark Lord regain his strength?

The most suspicious thing is that the damage to the crown was too serious at that time, and there was almost no magic power reaction, which also made him unable to continue researching at that time, but why did Lily make progress in such a short time after taking over?Could it be a piece of the Dark Lord's soul that controls Lily? !

No, it's impossible, Lily's behavior is very normal, she doesn't seem to be controlled at all... Could it be that Lily and that piece of soul have reached a consensus?

Snape sighed, now things were getting too difficult.The Ravenclaw crown is very important to Evan and Lily now, but compared to Lily, he still hopes to find a chance to get the crown back and dedicate it to Evan... But no matter what, he still has to hurry up for the potion of repairing the soul Research……
