He lowered his head to check John's heartbeat, and suddenly an arm wrapped around his neck, prompting him to get closer.

—It was John who opened his eyes suddenly.Light blue eyes looked at Snape with a smile, and stood up slightly to cover his lips.

The eyes of Dumbledore and the black-robed professor suddenly widened, apparently caught off guard by a great shock.

In the portrait, Principal Armando's dentures fell out with a "snap".

Snape broke away from John suddenly, his face completely black.He took two steps back and roared angrily, "John Snape!!"

John blinked and gave a flattering smile.

He propped up his upper body, although his face was a little pale, but his eyes were clear, looking at his intact appearance, it could be seen that he was just pretending.With a guilty expression on his face, he tugged at Snape's robe, and whispered, "Hey, Severus...just kidding."

Snape immediately pulled the corner of the robe out of John's hand with a blank expression, and said in a cold voice: "I can't be a joke about the powerful Mr. Snape, after all, I'm stupid, and I can't tell when it's a joke." , when is serious."

His expression didn't look like rage, but there was a terrifying aura that silenced people in the coldness - Snape had never spoken to John like this before.

John looked a little scared, knowing that Severus was really angry this time.

He smiled wryly.

It is undoubtedly too capricious to make such a joke with his own safety, especially for Severus, who has no sense of security, he must be very angry.Putting this situation on myself, I guess I will be angry for a long time.

But what can he do?Just now, he passed out from the pain, and when he woke up in time, he acted accordingly.

He just wanted to pretend to be tough in front of Voldemort, and he was immediately slapped in the face. He couldn't say such words even if he was killed.

To make it clear that Severus really hurts, or to let him mistake it for a prank?In the blink of an eye, John could only choose the latter option based on his feeling.It's just that it seems that the first one may not be reliable!

What to do... Is it too late to tell the truth now?

The atmosphere in the principal's office was a little frozen.

Snape stood stiffly aside and didn't look at John, obviously a little angry, and didn't want to talk to him for a while.The black-robed professor shook his head, and said in a complicated tone: "It seems that my vision really needs to be improved."

"...you'll know later." Snape twitched his lips.He wanted to refute, but now he really didn't want to talk, so he could only shake his robe and stride away.

Dumbledore also understood that this young man named John had the ability to fake his death, but now he accidentally made a fuss and couldn't stop it.

Although this is a minor annoyance among young people, Dumbledore always feels... a little strange.He also didn't think John was the kind of person who didn't care about gains and losses.

Dumbledore said to John with concern: "Let Madam Pomfrey take a look later."

John has been staring at the gate pitifully since just now, like an abandoned puppy.But he just sat on the ground without moving, just watched Snape throw his robe and leave.

——Professor Black Robe felt that he was obviously more annoyed when he stepped out of the door in the future, which should be the reason.

Hearing Dumbledore's words, John agreed without hesitation.

Dumbledore seemed to confirm something, and said: "Severus' detection magic is also very good, you can let him see it first."

He looked at John and added, "This is Severus."

John was stunned for a moment, his expression flustered, and he didn't know whether to refuse or agree: "There's no need for that—"

Before finishing a sentence, the black-robed professor took out his wand and recited a spell knowingly.

"Excessive blood loss, a bottle of blood tonic is enough." He checked it, and then said slowly, indicating that John was fine.

"Excessive blood loss..." Dumbledore's half-moon-shaped glasses flickered in thought, "John, can you still get up?"

John spread his hands helplessly: "It seems that you can see that now my legs are numb and heavy, and I can't move. It's a bit reluctant."

Now the professor had some guesses about what happened just now, his expression was a little more relaxed than usual, but he hissed, "Stupid."

Dumbledore kindly persuaded: "It's really good not to want to worry Severus, but it's even more hurtful to make him think that you are joking with your own safety."

"I think so too... I'll explain it to him when I see him later." John regretted it a long time ago, and now he nodded immediately.

"Then Severus, you should send John to the medical wing first, John's condition cannot be delayed." Dumbledore said with a smile.

The professor's face darkened, and he pulled out his wand wordlessly, and a levitating spell floated John beside him.

"Wait! Are you going to send me there like this?" John asked hastily.

"Otherwise?" The professor smirked, "Do you think I'm him, take you away?"

He said this very bluntly, with a strange and slightly mocking tone.It's exactly the tone of Severus when he faces strangers or people he doesn't want to see—although John knows from here that the original professor doesn't like him, but at this time, he looks at a familiar face and says this in a familiar tone. Such words, it is inevitable that I feel uncomfortable.

"That's unnecessary." A familiar voice sounded.

The black-robed figure that appeared at the door was Snape who had gone and returned.There was some coldness in his tone, obviously still angry.

Snape glanced at himself, took John over with a straight face, turned and left.

John lowered his head unnaturally in his arms, not knowing how to explain.

"Why are you back?" He finally asked out of words.

Snape's footsteps stopped abruptly, and hissed angrily: "Assuming I don't come back, you're going to pretend this never happened, are you?"

John quickly shook his head wisely in denial: "Of course not! I'm about to tell you."

Snape sneered.

John shrank, and after a while he said cautiously, "Severus, I was wrong."

He was still a little aggrieved-but this expression was restrained by him.

His physical condition was bad, and the pain still seemed to be lingering in his heart. Usually at this time, he just wanted to make out with Severus.

It happened that he had annoyed Severus now, and he didn't dare to act like a baby anymore. Being said that way by the former Severus, he was in a bad and heavy mood, and he didn't dare to ask for comfort.

John felt that he was a little aggrieved for no reason.

Snape didn't answer John, just walked in silence.The arc of his side face was tight and cold, obviously he didn't want to talk to John at all at the moment.

Severus will probably be angry for a long time this time.

John also bowed his head in silence.Although he was in Snape's arms, he was not as comfortable as usual, his body was tense involuntarily, he couldn't relax, and he felt quite trembling.

Snape suddenly sighed helplessly, and stood still in place.

"There can't be a second time." His cold tone softened slightly, and his arms around John also tightened.

"—Okay!" John raised his head in surprise.

Snape remained expressionless, still looking angry, and turned his head away from looking at John.

John suddenly thought of the time when he had been angry for a long time, and understood in his heart - Severus was waiting for him to coax him!

He regained his energy immediately, and said half coquettishly and half coaxingly: "Severus, you are so smart, I can adapt to the situation and I can't hide it from you. You really deserve to be my Severus!"

There was a smirk on Snape's face: "It's no use even if you say so."

But your tone is obviously saying——continue to praise me!

John had figured out the trick, and he suddenly remembered that when Malfoy flattered Severus in the original book, Severus didn't refuse, and his attitude seemed to be quite willing to listen, showing an arrogant and arrogant look.

— but he just loved seeing Severus make that look!

John had the bottom line in his heart, and continued to boast with a smile.

He is mentally prepared.If Severus was also angry for a month or two, he would praise him for a month or two, coax him for a month or two!

Anyway, as long as you don't ignore him.

The author has something to say: Alas, I was planning to go all the way sweetly, but the plot of feigning death was a sudden inspiration. Once I added it into the plot, I almost couldn’t get it back. Now I can count it back...
