Gentleman's Night Canteen

But the intensity of the feud between the two sides is less clear to anyone other than a few professors.

It can be said that both sides have basically used everything that can be used except black magic and some overly lethal magic. Both sides are frequent visitors to the school doctor's office, but the only difference is that Snape usually uses potions to deal with it first. Afterwards, they would go to the school infirmary alone, and James Potter and the others usually moved the others to the school infirmary with the less injured one.

The source of the friction between the two sides is now unclear.

Is it simply because the battle between Gryffindor and Slytherin made the two sides fight each other until it escalated continuously, or because a serious student bully and a rebellious thorn simply repel each other, or because The two parties vaguely realized that the other party's intentions were not important now.

Because if they met in public, they would either ridicule each other or ignore each other, and this was often because there would be another Gryffindor girl next to them, who was also the 'Lily' who had given Snape countless warmth.

But if they met privately, it would probably turn into a brawl in the end.

As for the OWLs exam this time, which is the most important first exam in a Hogwarts student's life, the effort expended by both parties is self-evident, and the joy after the exam is also self-evident.

But maybe it is precisely because of the importance of the exam that the two groups who have been holding back for almost a month without doing anything, after meeting, the battle is even more imminent.

Peter, who was the weakest among the 'Predators', was the first to be dealt with, but neither side was too surprised, after all, the opponent was the weakest, and every time they fought, he would either be the first to be dealt with, or Snape would simply ignore him He carried James Potter and others to the school infirmary.

And the remaining three cooperated tacitly.

Among them, Sirius, who looks the most unscrupulous, has inherited the excellent talents of the family. Even if he wasted his talents, his spells are still far superior to those of his companions. He even started to learn how to cast spells without spells at a young age. At this time, he was holding a magic wand As the main attack.

And James took the initiative to meet Snape as a striker.

He may be slightly inferior to his friends in terms of talent for spells, but he is the strongest when it comes to combat experience and combat intuition, and even occasionally dodges directly from Snape's spells instead of being like others As simple as defending, he alone attracted most of Snape's firepower.

As for Lupine, he was the one with the calmest expression among the group of four.

'Predator' is composed of two thorns, a follower and a schoolmaster.

Little wizards are assigned to a college but it does not mean that he only has the characteristics of one college, just like Snape, although he is called a 'standard Slytherin', but he has a strong thirst for knowledge about potions and black magic It is not surprising that he was assigned to Ravenclaw.

And Lupine also has the most sensible brain among the Gryffindor foursome.

He knew that he was inferior to Sirius in terms of spells, and inferior to James in terms of combat experience, so he simply protected Sirius in the rear with the Iron Armor Curse and let him fully fire while assisting James to a certain extent.

At first glance, he seems to have the least sense of presence, but it is his presence that maximizes the strengths of the two teammates and conceals their weaknesses.

The cooperation of the three of them is very tacit, but even so, Snape still did not lose the wind in the slightest. All kinds of common or unorthodox spells continued to fly from the wand to the three of them, among which the cutting curse even put James and the others together. His robes were torn.

Fortunately, this is Hogwarts, otherwise the ordinary house would have been destroyed by him long ago.

According to past experience, the final result is likely to be a tie between the two sides, and then each retreats to lick their wounds and wait for the next battle.

But a person who shouldn't be here made this battle go in a direction that no one expected.

Lily, who also completed the exam, searched for Snape and James to no avail, and reflexively guessed that the two sides might have friction again. In fact, this is not the first time, but because no matter who she asked, both sides said that' There's no such thing' and she can't do anything about it.

This time, due to the increase in the intensity of the battle, both sides were so engrossed that they had no time to care about others. In the end, Lily quietly lurked near the battlefield with the help of the invisibility spell.

"Snape?! James?!"

Although she had known about the battle between the two sides for a long time, she had no idea that the two sides had already started to use such a powerful and lethal spell as the 'cutting curse'.

You must know that although the magic world can treat most injuries except black magic or some special magical animals and special curses theoretically, being able to treat them does not mean that these magics are not lethal. If the protection is not timely, any spell may cause casualties.

For example, the cutting spell can make people lose a part if they are not careful.

She almost instinctively uttered a voice to stop the two parties, and at the same time made up her mind to let the two parties have a good talk.

But what she didn't expect was that her appearance brought an unexpected change to the battle. Snape, Sirius, and Lupine had all instinctively stopped, but James, who was hot-blooded, didn't notice Lily at all. With the appearance of Snape, he just instinctively grasped Snape's flaws and used the spell that the other party had cast on him more than once.

"Fuchsia!!"

Snape, who never expected that James would directly attack him in front of Lily, wanted to defend himself too late.

Fuchsia is a magic spell with no actual lethality, and it is also one of several new spells developed by Snape alone, with the intention of disgusting James and the others.

Under the circumstances that it is impossible for both parties to kill, this kind of 'spiritual attack' is more effective than wounds that can be healed, so James' fighting instinct made him choose this spell.

Snape felt instantly surrounded by weightlessness, and then he was directly suspended in mid-air, with his robes hanging upside down to cover his face.

And Snape, who was in mid-air, was stunned for a moment, and then an angry roar sounded like a beast.

The violent magic power poured into the wand in an instant, even without a spell, a powerful cutting curse instantly tore Snape's robes and swept towards the opponent.

"James!!"

The pupils of Lupine who had been standing behind suddenly shrank.

Because he realized that this cutting curse was different from the previous one, the other party... really wanted to kill James here.

The magic shield that appeared hastily did not completely block Snape's cutting curse, instantly smashed his magic shield, and cut a wound on James' face.

Immediately, blood gushed out from the wound, and at the same time James was unable to maintain the spell because of the injury, Snape fell directly from the air...

Chapter 39 It is not the sword that hurts the most but words

Snape, who fell from the sky, was extremely embarrassed, but James, whose face was covered in blood, obviously looked more miserable than him.

Lily questioned Snape almost instinctively.

"Snape! You almost killed James just now?!"

The reason why Lily said this was not because she was partial to James. In fact, at this time, although Snape was studying black magic and invited her to study together, there was a gap between the two parties, but in fact, James and Lily were only because of It's the same college and James took the initiative to approach him, so he just knew each other.

To put it simply, in Lily's eyes, the other party is still not as important as Snape. While she was worried about James' life, she was even more worried that Snape would cross the line that shouldn't be crossed and completely become a dark wizard. .

Unfortunately, Snape couldn't read minds.

He didn't know how Lily felt about him. A proud young man was seen in the most embarrassing side by the girl he cared about the most. Not only that, but in his opinion, the girl who should be his friend not only didn't speak up for him, And question yourself directly.

Snape, who was completely overwhelmed by shame and anger, blushed but tried his best to put on an expression of indifference that Lily had never seen before.

"Don't question me!"

After a brief pause, Snape said something he should never have said to the girl in front of him.

"Mudblood!"

The battle between Snape and James has gradually begun to attract students to gather over time. Usually, the two sides should evacuate the scene at this time, but at this time, because of Lily's existence, the two sides stalemate strangely. .

At this time, Snape's words made Lily's eyes widen, which was originally full of worry.

She looked at the boy in front of her in disbelief, who should have been extremely familiar.

She remembered the day when the two sides first met;

She thought of the little boy who used to be a bit weird;

She thought of the other party telling herself about the misfortune of the family;

She also recalled the scene when the originally gloomy faces of both parties smiled for the first time;

Of course, she couldn't forget that because they belonged to different colleges, they occasionally got together in private to exchange knowledge about potions...

She always thought that she was the most special existence of the other party, but now the other party actually used the most vicious term to call herself.

Pain and sadness welled up in her heart, and she could hardly hold back her tears, but she was not like an ordinary girl, because she was a proud Lily, and she would never shed tears because of a boy!

"You snotty man!! I won't care about you anymore!"

After finishing speaking, Lily walked towards the other end of the passage without looking back, and following the other party's words of "snot", Snape also completely woke up. At this time, he only felt cold hands and feet, because he Realized what I had just done.

The young man's arrogance and jealousy made him do the worst thing he could do. He had sworn to protect the other party forever with the magic wand in his hand, but at this time he hurt the other party with vicious words sharper than a sword.

"Lily! Wait! I..."

Snape reflexively wanted to explain, but at this time the flow of people gradually gathered made him not know how to speak for a while, because the two had no relationship on the surface, after all, Slytherin and Gryffindor There's always been friction between the two houses, especially with the 'Dark Lord' ravaging England.

And it was this hesitation that caused him to miss the best opportunity to explain, and even what he just reflexively said was completely drowned out by other people's comments.

The most embarrassing scene of Snape was only seen by Lily, but the wound on James' face was so obvious. In the eyes of the Slytherins, Snape just won a big victory with one against four, and they surrounded him. In the middle, they were either flattering or celebrating, but Snape, surrounded by the crowd, looked extremely silent, as if he had been abandoned by the world.

And it was precisely because of this that he didn't notice James on the other side, but they immediately chased after him.

Just as Snape misunderstood Lily's concern for him, for James, who didn't know the relationship between Snape and Lily, it was just "Lily questioned Slytherin's bastard because she was injured".

'Could it be that the other party was moved by my offensive? '

At this time, James could not care about treating his wound, and after simply wiping the blood on his face, he immediately chased after him.

"Lily, thank you just now..."

"Don't call me by my first name, Mr. Potter! We are not that familiar yet, and please don't harass me in the future, it's too naive, I hate naive people!!"

Compared to Snape, Lily was even more merciless in the face of James' enthusiasm.

After all, for her now, James is a rich second generation who likes to act recklessly and likes to harass her. She has no interest in this kind of person, let alone because of the other party's reason, she just quarreled with her friend For one, she didn't scold people directly, which already shows that she is a gentle enough person.

And James, who had never seen this side of the other party, was stunned for a moment, at a loss, and could only silently watch Lily leave.

It's just that no one noticed the red circles under the eyes of the girl who was originally proud when there was no one around her...

With the end of the exams, Hogwarts naturally went on vacation directly, and during the short gap before the vacation, Snape frantically looked for Lily and tried to apologize, but it was a pity that even if the two parties met, the other party turned a blind eye to her, and even privately he did not give it to the other party. The opportunity to meet yourself.

In this way, with the arrival of the holiday, Snape never saw the other party again. This year, the other party did not come to see him as usual.

For Snape at this time, compared to being scolded or simply beaten by the other party, this kind of deliberate avoidance made him more desperate.

And it is precisely because of this that after returning to school to search unsuccessfully, he went to Diagon Alley to search again. After searching again but failed, he chose to find an empty shop to get drunk, and finally...found Lan Meng's restaurant.

Because of being drunk, Snape unconsciously talked about his previous experiences...Of course, his last rationality made him still not express his intentions clearly under alcohol, but deliberately emphasized that "Lily is my best" friend'.

But what he didn't know was that his embarrassing acting skills could not fool anyone present at all.

And after listening to each other's stories, everyone had different expressions.

Merlin's face was full of helplessness. Although Eri Sawamura complained in his heart that he looked like an unscrupulous Aquaman, he really didn't understand emotions and couldn't give any advice at all.

So he also unconsciously looked at other people. What he didn't expect was that except for himself, the expressions of other people seemed to have subtly changed from before.

Suddenly, Merlin had the illusion that only he was a waste.

Could it be that... am I the only one present who has no love experience?

Chapter 40 True Neon Netizens

Among all the people present, Emiya Shirou is undoubtedly the most shabby in terms of acting.

The dark skin under the sun for a long time, coupled with the innumerable scars on the exposed skin, made the other party's seemingly not strong body full of the aura of a gangster.

But in fact, in terms of emotional experience, the other party is the one with the richest among all the people present.

The 'story' Snape mentioned is actually not complicated. If elements such as magic are excluded, in the final analysis, it is a problem of an overly proud young man who lost face in front of the girl he likes and vents his anger on her, but doesn't know how to solve it. That's all.

He has never hurt the person he likes or the person who likes him, but he is full of experience in how to apologize. After all... In terms of the degree of bastard, he should be far more than the other party, right?

Leaving each other alone and waiting for myself for more than 20 years.

Thinking of the experience when he went to apologize earlier, Emiya Shirou couldn't help rubbing his brows.

"I think you should be thinking about how to apologize?"

Perhaps it was because of a strange empathy that Shirou Emiya spoke first.

Although he didn't know whether it was because of the alcohol or because of the influence of Blue Dream's "emotional resonance", Snape chose to confide, but the remaining rationality still made him have some reservations, for example, he didn't express his emotions too obviously, Naturally, he didn't mention that he had been looking for the other party to apologize these days, but the battle came to an abrupt end.

But it's a pity that even though he was paying attention, he still didn't hide in front of a group of old drivers. Before he finished speaking, everyone guessed his situation. At this time, Shirou Emiya had just opened his mouth, and he gave a firm and affirmative answer first. But then he showed a painful expression.

"Of course! I've looked for it, but... whether it's the school, the other party's home, the other party's hometown, or Diagon Alley... I can't find it."

Although Shirou Emiya wanted to complain about why Snape actually knew the location of the opponent's hometown, but now he was more serious, he still held back his desire to complain and continued to persuade the opponent.

"Then what about the other party's friend's house? According to you, it is more likely that a girl is not at home than running around and staying at an acquaintance's house?"

Snape naturally knew about some of Lily's friends. After all, the relationship between the two is much closer than most people imagined. Occasionally, the two of them would exchange their daily life in their free time when studying potions together. .

Among them, Snape's daily life basically revolves around studying, while Lily will share some things about her friends with Snape.

But most of the other party's friends are Gryffindors except for a few Ravenclaws and Hufflepuffs.

Snape hated these stupid lions from the bottom of his heart.

They always use bravery to decorate their stupidity, and they prefer to rely on their intuition rather than thinking. He and these guys are naturally at odds.

Seeing Snape's tangled expression, Eri Sawamura, who was staying aside, suddenly spoke.

"You have friction with the other party's friends, so you don't want to go?"

Although Snape didn't answer, the silence at this moment was already an answer, seeing this, Eriri Sawamura couldn't help but frown.

Although she was the only girl present, she was more able to understand Snape's situation than Lily, because she had done similar things in the past.

Not many people know that Eri Sawamura is a otaku except her family and Lan Meng, and one of her former friends is also one of the insiders.

When they were young, the two exchanged various dramas and games together, which can be said to be like-minded.
