Snape watched this scene and a nameless fire rose in his heart, but he suppressed it in an instant.

After Lockhart finished eating the beef, he wiped his mouth and said slowly, "Don't worry, Snape, you should know that I am always very careful and cautious in doing things."

"You can relax about this."

Hearing what Lockhart said, for some reason, Snape felt a chill in his heart and a chill down his spine.

But his face remained expressionless and he did not speak. He just looked around silently, as if looking for an opportunity to escape.

Now is not the time to feel guilty, my magic is imprisoned, I am in an unknown place, I have missed classes, and Dumbledore did not show up....

All of this told him that he was in big trouble.

suddenly....

"Snape, do you know what year it is?"

Lockhart's mischievous voice came to my ears.

This made Snape, who had been observing for four weeks, focus his eyes, and he saw something that looked like a clock not far away.

上面正写着:2011年10月26日,上午9:56.

"It's been 19 years?" Snape's voice was a little hoarse. As far as he remembered, it should be 1992.

Then, he reacted and said in a positive tone: "It's impossible. It's absolutely impossible that 19 years have passed."

"Why?" Lockhart picked up a shrimp from the pot, put it in the bowl, and asked Snape as if chatting.

"Lockhart, don't play these little tricks." Snape said coldly: "It is impossible for me not to notice the erosion of time on the body, especially for 19 years."

"Snape, you are so smart." Lockhart put the shrimp in the bowl into his mouth and praised: "But there is one thing I must tell you."

“Now, it really is 2011.”

Hearing this, Snape looked unconvinced, but his heart gradually sank.

Based on his understanding of Lockhart, he would not joke about such issues.

As the thought flashed through his mind, Snape turned his head to look out the window, looking at the unfamiliar scene through the transparent glass.

Strange, brand new buildings, lots of electronic screens, tall buildings, and the occasional sound of car horns.

This made his expression change.

He just stood up when Erica opposite him seemed to realize something and quickly stood up to stop her from leaving.

Lockhart stretched out his right hand to stop Erica and said with a smile: "Let's eat meat and don't disturb my old friend from observing the new place."

After hearing this, Snape's defensive posture disappeared, he took a look and sat down, still eating hotpot and waiting for Lockhart.

Without saying a word, he just walked silently to the window.

Through the window, I looked out at the tall buildings in the distance and the large number of Muggles wandering around below.

The novel buildings, the large crowds of people and the prosperous urban scenes all told him that this was most likely no longer in the UK.

At the same time, he secretly raised his right arm, carefully looked at the runes on the bracelet, and adjusted the magic power in his body.

It seems that he wants to take advantage of this opportunity to crack or escape.

However...

"Snape, give up and have more faith in me. If I were a fool, I wouldn't be alive today."

Hearing Lockhart's voice in his ears, Snape silently lowered his arms.

Turn around and sit down at your seat.

After sitting down, before he could open his mouth, he heard Lockhart remind him again: "Snape, the beef in your bowl will get cold if you don't eat it."

Hearing this, Snape looked down at the bowl in front of him, and the chopsticks, knife, fork, etc. beside it.

After thinking about it, he picked up a small fork, picked up the beef, put it in his mouth, and chewed it carefully.

It was beef, very tender and fresh, with no abnormal temperature changes.

No...it's a fantasy!

"Snape, how does it taste?" Lockhart asked with a smile after seeing Snape finish eating.

“It tastes good.”

Although he didn't know what tricks Lockhart was playing, Snape still answered cautiously.

"This is reality, not an illusion." Snape made his own judgment in an affirmative tone.

"Oh, why do you say that?" Lockhart seemed a little surprised and asked directly.

"The details, the flow of wind, the friction of arms, the heat of the sun, the texture of flesh, etc. are all exactly the same as in reality."

"The illusion is definitely not capable of this."

Snapped!Snapped!Snapped!

Hearing Snape's judgment, Lockhart clapped his hands lightly and said encouragingly, "As expected of a dark wizard who once worked for Voldemort, his abilities are beyond reproach."

Hearing Lockhart's praise, Snape remained expressionless.

After a moment's silence, he said, "Lockhart, I apologize to you for the potion."

"Don't worry, I will never tell anyone, including Dumbledore, that you own a basilisk."

After he woke up, he quickly thought about the whole process of his attack.

A snake head, yellow eyes, petrified, and completely unconscious.

He quickly thought of the magical creature that only a top dark wizard could possess and cultivate - the basilisk!

After hearing this, Lockhart said calmly: "Snape, I don't believe your promise."

"I trusted you before. The transaction between us must have earned you at least a thousand gold galleons."

"As a result, you really impressed me."

By the end, Lockhart's tone had turned into sarcasm.

After hearing this, Snape remained silent. Since he had made the decision, he naturally would not feel any regret or guilt.

After thinking for a moment, he said, "Lockhart, is there anything I can do for you? I can make up for it."

In the current situation, if Dumbledore doesn't show up, he will be in danger.

He hadn't seen the Dark Lord die yet, he couldn't die yet.

Hearing what Snape said, Lockhart smiled and didn't respond.

He turned his head and waved to the waiter not far away.

When the waiter saw this, he immediately trotted over and listened attentively to the customer's instructions.

"Waiter, bring the meat. The beef just now was good. Give me more."

"Okay, sir."

As he said that, he took a step back, gently pulled his collar, and whispered into the microphone: "I want five, no, ten servings of Kobe beef, of the best quality."

After that, he walked to the side, bent down, and whispered to Lockhart: "Sir, wait a moment, the beef will be here soon."

At Lockhart's gentle wave, the manager immediately stepped back and stopped interrupting the conversation between the guests.

Snape watched this scene without any action, waiting quietly for Lockhart's reply.

"Snape, try the hot pot, and these beef and vegetables."

“This is one of my favorite foods.”

After hearing what Lockhart said, Snape remained expressionless and motionless, as if he wanted to hear some answer from Lockhart.

Then...

"Snape, you really need to change your temper." Seeing Snape's reaction, Lockhart said with some emotion: "No wonder Lily left you."

Hearing Lockhart mention his beloved Lily, he also mentioned the source of his pain.

Snape's anger suddenly rose, and he couldn't help but stand up and want to teach Lockhart a lesson.

However....

"sit down!"

Snape had just stood up when he felt a huge force pressing down on him and he sat down immediately.

"Lockhart, just tell me what you want to do." Snape said with a gloomy face and a cold tone, but there was still anger that could not be concealed in his cold tone.

"Snape, are you angry?" Lockhart picked up a light pink fish ball from the hot pot, put it in his bowl, and said lightly: "Isn't what I said the truth?"

"Although Lily left you because of the dark magic, it was also related to your bad temper."

Lockhart's words were like a bucket of cold water poured on Snape, making him sober up instantly.

But he remained silent.

Lockhart was not surprised to see this. Lily was the eternal pain in Snape's heart, but she was also the best medium to control him.

"Snape, I heard you say before that your goal is to avenge Voldemort, even if it means your own death."

"Is it right?"

Lockhart picked up the fish ball that he had just dipped in the sauce, and after he finished speaking, he put it in his mouth and savored it carefully.

Snape stared closely at Lockhart opposite him and nodded silently.

He said this in front of Lockhart, so there was no need to hide it.

"Harry Potter is Lily's child, and his eyes are very similar to Lily's."

"Do you want to care about his life or death?"

Hearing what Lockhart said, Snape said in a hoarse voice: "Dumbledore will take care of Harry Potter for me."

"Oh, I see." Lockhart seemed a little surprised and said, "Yes, there is something I don't know whether I should tell you?"

"Something to do with killing Voldemort."

"You say." Snape said coldly, but he had a bad feeling in his heart.

"Voldemort is still alive. He lives through the Horcruxes. As long as there is a Horcrux, Voldemort will never die."

Hearing this, Snape's bad premonition became stronger and stronger, and he asked directly: "Lockhart, what do you mean?"

"My meaning is very simple. If you want to kill Voldemort, you just need to find all his Horcruxes. Don't you understand?"

Lockhart picked up a bunch of vegetables from the pot, put them in Snape's bowl, and whispered, "Try this vegetable."

"Vegetables are good too. After you finish eating them, I'll tell you a little secret."

After hearing what Lockhart said, Snape was silent for a moment, picked up the fork next to him, picked up the vegetables in the bowl and put them into his mouth, chewed them carefully, and then looked at Lockhart.

Seeing this, Lockhart raised his chopsticks and joked, "Snape, you can practice how to use chopsticks. It's perfect for eating hot pot with chopsticks."

After hearing this, Snape did not reply, but kept staring at Lockhart, as if asking, what secret are you talking about?

"Don't be impatient, Snape. What I say will definitely surprise you."

"Control your emotions." Lockhart reminded with a smile.

"When Lily died, Voldemort died at the same time."

"If Dumbledore hadn't told you that Voldemort was not dead yet and that Lily's child was still alive and would be in danger of death in the future and would need care, I'm afraid you would have gone to accompany Lily now."

"Lockhart, how did you know?" Snape was a little surprised and doubtful. He had never told Lockhart such a thing.

"Don't be in a hurry, let's talk slowly." Lockhart picked up a piece of tenderloin from the hot pot, put it in the bowl, took a light bite, closed his eyes, and a happy expression appeared on his face, as if he was tasting the deliciousness of the meat.

Soon, Lockhart opened his eyes and said slowly, "There is one thing I don't know if Headmaster Dumbledore has told you."

"If you want to kill Voldemort, you must kill Harry Potter and wipe out the last remains of Lily."

"Do you know about this?"

Hearing what Lockhart said, Snape's previously accumulated anger suddenly erupted.

He held the table with both hands, as if he wanted to overturn it in one fell swoop and pour the boiling hot soup in front of him directly onto Lockhart's hateful face.

However...

"calm!"
