Everyday Players at Hogwarts.

Chapter 592 Black Envelope

Snape was very depressed.

In recent years, he didn't know who he had offended.

He receives photos every January 1th, as well as on holidays like Easter and Christmas.

Lily's photo.

At first there were Lily's elementary school graduation photos, Hogwarts school photos, and wedding photos.

At this point, it's understandable.

These photos were taken by Lily herself or with her knowledge.

But then it changed. The photos were manipulated.

Next to all the photos of Lily from childhood to adulthood were added the abominable James Potter at the corresponding age, and himself with ridiculous hair and a pouting mouth.

What’s even more disgusting is that these photos are attached with an incredibly strong indestructible spell and are firmly affixed to the wall of the office.

As a result, he had no choice but to tear down the wall and move to a new office.

These photos are undoubtedly invaluable treasures to him.

But he just couldn't do it, couldn't cut James Potter out of the picture.

The following photos are even more bizarre.

As someone who once had an extremely close relationship with Lily, he could be sure that these photos were not created by magic.

Some of the scenes even show him looking at Lily from his perspective.

It was as if there was someone non-existent standing behind him and taking Lily's picture.

What's even more terrifying is that these photos are very detailed. They cover almost all stages of Lily's growth - from her first baby teeth to her lying on the sofa with that guy tightly together after she became a wife.

He had been there after Lily's death and knew that the place where the photo might have been taken was by the fireplace.

There wouldn't be someone with great magic skills who would be so bored as to hide in a fireplace and take pictures of people.

And looking at the background of the photo, there is a toy broom in the corner.

This was the stupid dog's gift to Harry.

By then Lily and that guy already had Harry.

And he has already hidden himself using the Fidelius Charm.

Who can enter a house that even Dumbledore and Voldemort cannot break into, which is actually in another dimension.

And just to take a picture for him?
And today, after brewing the pregnancy-preserving potion under the almost surveillance of the old man Dumbledore, he received another letter.

It's that person.

A black envelope with two Chinese characters written on it.

He has investigated and found out that these are two words from the Book of Changes.

It is the name of the most famous magic book used by wizards in that mysterious country to learn divination.

But it could also be a person's name.

There is a surname called Zhou in China, and Zhou Yi is not a rare name among wizards.

He had no choice but to quickly look through the letter, which contained a piece of parchment.

But as soon as his hand touched it, the parchment burst into blue flames.

The flame burned so fast that his magic power had no time to react.

However, this flame had no temperature at all, just like a phantom of nothingness.

The burn spread from his fingertips to the top of his head.

Then countless unclear images rushed into his mind.

Then he fainted.

[That was Hogwarts, next to the beech tree on the slope of the black lake where he was hanging upside down in the air, revealing his underwear that was almost turning black.

Harry appeared from thin air, a ring in his hand.

Harry then removed another stone from the ring.

Harry was very excited and was talking to a woman whose figure was illusory and ghostly.

The stone turned in his hand three times, and the woman appeared. It was Lily!
Then the scene changed and they came to the principal's office again.

There were Dumbledore and Grindelwald.

Their conversation was vague, as if coming from far away.

But he could clearly "hear" the content of the conversation with a strange sense.

They spoke in German, but the words came to him clearly.

The story of the Three Deathly Hallows rang out in the headmaster's office.

James Potter's invisibility cloak turned out to be the Deathly Hallows. Dumbledore's wand was also the legendary Elder Wand, which he won from Grindelwald.

Grindelwald prophesied a boy with his face in the mist talking to an unseen figure.

The resurrection stone was used to resurrect a woman whose appearance and figure could not be seen clearly.

What follows is more familiar content.

The rules of the competition and the schools in which it should be introduced.

How to deal with Voldemort.

How to train Harry.

Tree shepherd system. 】

Then Snape opened his eyes.

He looked at the clock and saw that ten minutes had passed since he opened the letter.

At the same time, he felt a cool sensation on his wrist.

He pulled up his wide sleeves, revealing wrists that were inconsistent with his sallow face.

An address flashed by above it: Hogwarts, eighth floor, opposite the tapestry where the troll beat up Barnabas.

Then comes the countdown.

Based on the current time, the countdown will end at 11 o'clock tonight.

Everything is weird.

But Snape knew he had no choice.

He couldn't tell anyone about this.

This matter concerns Lily's resurrection.

This was bigger than himself, Dumbledore, or even Harry himself.

Late at night, after the 10 o'clock curfew bell rang.

Everything outside the four lounges returned to an eerie silence.

The moon hung high in the sky, and the ghosts returned to the unused classroom they had chosen.

Filch held Mrs. Norris in his arms and jumped up and down the marble staircase that moved from time to time, as if he was flying.

At this moment, a black figure flashed past the corridor on the seventh floor.

It's Snape.

He walked calmly toward the marble staircase.

He knew that the ghost at Hogwarts and the portrait in the frame were Dumbledore's eyes.

If he was going to that important but strange appointment.

He must be aboveboard.

Let Dumbledore know where he's going.

As professors at Hogwarts, it is their job to patrol the night.

It is even normal to walk around at night when you can't sleep.

When we arrived at the eighth floor, a door appeared on the wall opposite the tapestry where the giant monster beat Barnabas to death with his stick.

"Come in, Dumbledore can't see the folding door. He won't notice your disappearance either." A clear voice sounded.

Snape could tell the youth of the owner of this voice.

He was about to sneer, but his intuition deep in his heart told him to shut up.

Looking towards the window not far away, the spider web that was swaying in the wind just now suddenly stopped.

He turned and looked downstairs. Filch's excited expression froze as he seemed to have discovered the night wandering students.

What surprised him even more was that Filch was now suspended in mid-air.

He turned his head again, and the troll in the tapestry opposite also stopped holding the wooden stick.

It's like it was a Muggle creation.

An immobile portrait.

"Time stopped." Snape's voice was a little dry.

But this made his expression more resolute.

He understood that perhaps only such a wizard could guide all of this.

Then - Lily's resurrection wouldn't be a fantasy.
