Snape noticed that Riddle's mood had been erratic lately, just like now.

They chatted for a while longer, until Snape's biological clock started to tick. Riddle listened to Snape's voice becoming hoarse with sleepiness, as if the "good night" with a little hook hung up the two-way mirror -

Then he decisively contacted Lucius.

Lucius was woken up in the middle of the night: ...

A collapsed house can be rebuilt, but the one you built cannot be rebuilt.

Riddle knew Lily. Ever since he knew her feelings, he had investigated Snape's superficial life thoroughly, but he didn't touch on the deeper aspects. He wanted to wait for Snape to tell him in person.

He also wanted to believe that there was really nothing going on between Snape and Lily, but it just made people feel uncomfortable.

Childhood sweethearts, although they are not in the same college, even in this situation, a Slytherin and a Gryffindor will still take a walk together, what a great friendship.

Riddle looked at Lucius with an unhappy look. He did not let Lucius tell Snape his identity at that time because he wanted to use Lucius's mouth to tell Snape the truth. However, Lucius obviously understood it, but he just didn't say it, which made Riddle very unhappy.

But because he was not ready yet, he still indulged Lucius for the sake of old Malfoy.

"Lucius, the Potter boy will know that the girl he likes lives in Snape's house, right?"

Lucius: "...He'll know by tomorrow night."

Riddle went to bed satisfied.

Lucius wrote to Snape the next day, asking if he could come visit him.

As expected, Snape refused, saying that Lily was not available.

Then Lucius went to find Sirius and advised Sirius not to make Narcissa sad, and then inadvertently mentioned that Lily lived in Snape's house.

Sirius did tell James.

James' heart broke when he heard this. Because of what happened at school, his relationship with Lily, which had been slightly improved, had regressed. He had asked Lily out countless times during the holidays but was rejected. Now Lily was living in Snape's house! ! !

James also shattered quietly, more completely than Riddle.

Riddle thought that this would destroy the atmosphere of living alone between Snape and Lily, but he didn't expect that there were actually very few people who knew where Snape lived, and James was not among them. He wanted to ask Sirius to ask Lucius.

Lucius, who had finally turned the tables, decisively rejected Sirius, so Sirius didn't know where Snape lived.

In the end, James could only drag Sirius to drink in the tavern in Hogsmeade because minors were not allowed to drink.

Riddle: Useless stuff.

Sixth grade began with Riddle feeling depressed, James feeling sad and Sirius feeling irritable.
