Soon, the students discovered that Snape had changed.

In the past, he always had a sullen face and refused to say anything, as if everyone owed him a lot of money. He was also very cruel when deducting points, so much so that students from other colleges except Slytherin were very afraid of him.

But now, Snape has changed.

Although he still had a sullen face and didn't usually speak in a nice tone, he seemed to be in a much better mood. Even when he saw some students breaking the rules, he would just pretend he didn't see them and walk past them. Even Gryffindor, which was originally targeted, had not been deducted points for several days!

What's going on?

The students were talking about it, but Ai Li was the only one sweating...

Have I overplayed my hand a bit?

Sitting on the broom and floating in the air, watching Harry Potter sneaking towards the potion room wearing the invisibility cloak, Ellie couldn't help but wipe the cold sweat from her forehead. She knew that there was a compound potion in the Harry Potter movie that could change someone's appearance, but that required a part of the person's body - but Lily had been dead for so many years, could she still dig up the grave to dig out some bones for Harry to make soup?

This is of course impossible. In fact, what Ellie gave Harry was just an ordinary gender change potion. But how to say it... As the saying goes, sons look like their mothers, so after the gender change, he really looks 70% like Lily.

But it's only seven or eight points.

Just like a daughter and a mother, no matter how much alike they look, they are not the same person. Besides, Ellie was just playing a little prank at first and just wanted to see what would happen, so she did it casually and gave Harry a sex-changing potion to tease Snape and let him see what the female version of Harry would react to.

In fact, Snape was not stupid. After all, he was a Potions teacher. Although he was stunned when he saw Harry, he soon discovered his true identity. However, what happened after that was completely beyond Ellie's expectations.

Now back to that night...

“Lily…?”

"Why?"

Harry was also stunned when he heard Snape's name. Snape was silent for a moment, then closed his eyes and opened them again.

"It is you, Harry Potter. What do you want to do dressed like this?"

"No, that...I..."

Faced with Snape's question, Harry quickly became nervous. In fact, he didn't know why he did all this, but considering that it was for his future days in Hogwarts, he gritted his teeth and spoke.

"I just hope to be able to... to be able to..."

"I don't want to know what you want to do."

Snape's expression turned cold again and he waved his hand.

"You can go now. It's time for students to go to bed. If you stay here any longer, I will deduct points from Gryffindor!"

"Yes, I'm sorry!"

Hearing this, Harry was so scared that he quickly apologized and turned to flee. Snape stood at the door, watching Harry's back disappear into the corridor, then he sighed deeply and closed the door again.

The next day, as usual, Snape's expression did not change at all when facing Harry Potter. He still criticized Harry in the potions class, which made Harry very frustrated. But what he didn't expect was that after the potions class, Snape asked him to stay.

"You are terrible, Potter, terrible."

Looking at Harry in front of him, Snape shook his head.

"You know what? Your mother is an excellent potion master. I originally thought that you would inherit her talent, but now it seems that you are just embarrassing your mother..."

“…”

Hearing this, Harry lowered his head in shame. Just when he thought this was just another of Snape's routine sarcasm, Snape changed the subject.

"I can't let you discredit your mother, Harry. From today on, come to the Potions Room every night and I will give you tutoring."

"Why?"

Hearing this, Harry was stunned for a moment, but before he could react, Snape leaned close to Harry's ear and whispered to him.

"Of course. To punish you, from today on, you have to take that potion every night before coming here, and you have to wear this girl's uniform. When you can successfully pass my test, I will allow you to return to your original state."

After saying this, Snape smiled coldly, then turned and left, leaving Harry alone in confusion...

So from that day on, every night Harry would take the potion and then put on an invisibility cloak to sneak into the potions room to meet Snape, and then... tutor him.

Well, it's just tutoring, at least that's what it looks like on the surface.

But gradually, the situation changed. Ellie discovered that Harry was a little afraid of Snape at first, but recently he seemed to be getting closer and closer to Snape, and even a little more... attached?!

Um???

At first, Ai Li was a little confused, but after thinking about it, she understood.

Harry was an orphan who was raised by his evil uncle and aunt. Although Dumbledore always said that he was a savior, he was only an eleven-year-old child after all and naturally longed for an adult to take care of him. Although Snape had a dead face all day long and was sarcastic to Harry Potter, during the evening tutoring, perhaps because Harry, after the gender change, was 70% similar to his mother, Snape's tone was much gentler, and he was not as sharp-tongued as usual.

For Harry, who was always criticized and scolded by his uncle and aunt, Snape's performance was undoubtedly like an angel coming to him!

So gradually... Ellie discovered that Harry actually took the initiative to get closer to Snape?!

Is there such an operation?!

Faced with this scene, Ai Li said...what does it have to do with me?

Isn't this a British tradition?

You can't put the blame on me for your own problems.

I didn't do anything, it was just a cute little prank. You guys turned on the magic switch and got to this point, what does it have to do with me?

The evidence is that every night when Harry sneaked away, he didn't notice that his good friend Ron would crawl on the bed and watch his retreating back with resentment, just like a wife watching her husband secretly meeting his mistress, his eyes full of fragility, confusion and helplessness...

This can't be my fault.

She just gave Harry a potion, a suggestion, and then did nothing. It wasn't her who forced Harry Potter to drink the potion and go to Snape. He made his own choice and naturally had to bear the consequences.

Just like today, when Ellie saw Ron pulling Harry into the woods, she said nothing.

What does it have to do with her?

"Harry, where have you been every night these days?"

Holding Harry, Ron stared at him with tears in his eyes as if he was a shrew who was worried about this family. Harry felt a little flustered when Ron stared at him. Of course, he didn't dare to tell him that he went to Snape for tutoring. After all, Harry knew that Ron hated Snape, or no one in Gryffindor liked Snape. If he told Ron that he sneaked out at night to have tutoring in Potions with Snape, then Ron would definitely regard him as a traitor.

So Harry did what many husbands caught cheating in TV shows do: deny it.

"I don't know what you are talking about, Ron. I sleep in my room every night. You also know that if you go out without permission and get caught, you will be deducted points..."

"You knew it and still did it! Where on earth have you been? Harry, don't lie to me!"

Ron was holding Harry tightly at this moment, and he looked like a shrew begging her husband to change his mind.

"I know you leave the dormitory every night after lights out! Wearing that invisibility cloak, I don't know where you go! Do you know that I am very worried about you? What are you doing?"

"I didn't do anything dangerous, Ron."

Under Ron's questioning, Harry panicked a little and quickly pushed him away - just like a husband who had found a second spring in love ruthlessly pushed away the old woman who had shared his hardships.

"I don't know what you are talking about. I really haven't left. Potions class is about to start. We have to go quickly, otherwise Professor Snape will say something!"

After saying this, Harry turned around and left in a hurry without waiting for Ron to say anything. Ron looked at Harry Potter's back, bit his lips, his eyes slightly red, and a tear flowed down his cheek. Then he closed his eyes, sobbed, and then picked up the book in his hand and walked towards the place where Harry Potter disappeared.

...So you see, what does the love, hate and grudge between the two boys have to do with my Ai Li?

Looking at Ron and Harry's receding backs, Ellie felt no emotion at all.

But soon, she had no time to care about the complicated triangle relationship between Harry, Snape and Ron, because Hermione found her again, but this time the reason why Hermione found Ellie was - well, to use the more familiar words in Japanese anime... life discussion.

The serious kind.

It’s not the kind where I ride on you in your pajamas and slap you in the face late at night, okay?

The location was certainly not in the bedroom, but in the library.

"I'm wondering...whether I should continue to be a wizard..."

Facing Ellie, Hermione hesitated and expressed her troubles.
