Finally, Sirius threw a newspaper to Snape and left the carriage.

Snape opened it and found the news that Voldemort had sent Death Eaters to contact Muggles.

They were all wondering whether Voldemort was ready to attack Muggles. No wonder Lily's friend came over and told her to leave.

In their eyes, Snape, who was in Slytherin in the current environment, could not be a good friend.

"Lily!"

Snape heard someone calling Lily outside. There were actually quite a lot of girls called Lily, but Snape was sure that the Lily being called was the Lily he knew.

The next second, the door of the box was pushed open, and Lily waved outside: "See you at the banquet table!"

Snape saw that Lily was still holding the flowers that Peacock had given her. The red peonies were as warm as she was.

"Don't run in the carriage, it's dangerous," said Snape.

"But my legs told me to come see you quickly. I still have something to say, a lot of things I haven't told you!" Lily smiled. The light shone on Lily through the window. Snape couldn't see her face blurred by the light, but he saw Lily's sparkling, emerald-like eyes.

Snape also laughed: "I will listen."

Lily sat opposite Snape, eager to start talking about her holiday from the moment they separated at the train station.

Parents, Penny, former classmates, the neighbor aunt, James...

She shared interesting things in her life, or complained coquettishly: "Penny also made a lot of skirts for me, I wanted to bring them all, but my mother wouldn't allow it, she said I already had enough luggage!

But I also want to show off the clothes my sister made for me!"

Snape would also tell Lily about what he and Peacock saw during their travels and ask Lily if she liked the gifts he and Peacock gave her.

"That's beyond doubt!" Lily answered affirmatively.

Snape handed the newspaper to Lily: "Did you know about this?"

"...Sev also knows about it." Lily took the newspaper.

"I'm a little scared. Of course, I'm not scared of Slytherin, nor of Sev. I just..." Lily held the newspaper with a conflicted look on her face.

She had always been reluctant to tell Snape about Voldemort. She knew that Snape was studying the Dark Arts, that although he didn't like to communicate with others in Slytherin, he had a high prestige, and that some pure-blood families were trying to recruit Snape.

She had always, always wanted to believe Snape.

"You are just afraid of war, afraid of death, afraid that those innocent lives will be destroyed because of such stupid questions. I know." Snape said gently.

Peacock is closer than a friend, and Lily is his first friend.

She is kind, beautiful, lively, a little temperamental, and as cute as a clover.

It can make people beautiful, and of course it can also make people's mood beautiful.

"Thank you for understanding me, Sev." Lily smiled. She would never say these words to her Gryffindor friends. She was afraid that her impulsive friends would misunderstand something and cause trouble for both parties. She was also afraid that her words were not in line with the brave Gryffindor.

Lily looked at Snape for a long time, and James, who was secretly leaning against the window at the door, almost heard his heartbeat coming through the door.

"Sever has changed a lot. I didn't realize it before." Lily sighed. The Sever she first knew was a man who didn't realize he was wrong even when arguing with Peacock. Now he can say:

"I know."

"Every time he comes back from vacation, Severus changes a lot." Lily thought back carefully. Although most people only noticed Severus's frequently changing appearance, Lily noticed some different changes:

"It's getting better. Sev is now like a little prince waiting to succeed to the throne. Well, I won't say anymore. I'm going to go scold that idiot!" Lily smiled and stood up. She opened the door angrily and looked at James lying on the window.

In fact, Lily had guessed Snape's identity a long time ago, the Snape family in Spinner's End.

Just like how Sirius Black was once described, no matter how cleanly a person comes out of a quagmire, mud will still be inadvertently exposed between his fingernails when he raises his hands.

The same is true for Sifu.

She hadn't thought about it at first, and she didn't want her friend to live in that environment at all, but after the first year holiday, Snape said he moved to London, and she heard that Snape's children from Spinner's End had never come back.

She knew it then, and she even secretly said in her heart that Snape was Cinderella and Peacock was like his fairy godmother.

But now Cinderella has become the little prince!

That’s great.

The fifth grade officially began and everything was back on track. No matter how things changed in the academy, Snape didn't care. He just wanted to become stronger and didn't care about the turmoil they stirred up.

He studied hard every day, researching magic and potions, and from time to time he would take the basilisk to see the crystals and pick some herbs from the forbidden forest.

However, he ordered a newspaper, and as he saw more and more policies targeting the Muggle world, he became curious about what Riddle was trying to do.

"It doesn't look like it's going to destroy the Muggle world," said Snape.

Peacock sat on Snape's shoulder: "Maybe you changed him."

Snape didn't quite believe it, but there was no point dwelling on it now.

"Let's go, Sif, to the Forbidden Forest." Peacock looked at the moon outside, which cast a layer of silver moonlight on the ground. "The moonlight is very good today. Let's go for a walk under the moon and take Crystal with us."

Crystal is now a full-grown unicorn, her silver fur gleaming in the moonlight.
