Riddle buried his head in Snape's neck. He could feel the blood flowing in Snape's neck with his forehead. On one side of his ears was Snape's steady breathing, and on the other side was the beating of his heart.
Even in such a painful moment, he felt a sense of peace from Snape.
The voices originally discussing Riddle's body gradually died away. They stared blankly at the scene, feeling the tranquility brought by Snape.
It feels like returning to my mother's body.
Warm, inclusive, and safe, with the sound of blood flowing and heart beating in my ears.
It was not until Riddle's pain disappeared and he came out of Snape's arms that the children reacted and covered their flushed faces.
For the first time, they felt Snape's gentleness and quiet charm.
The blush on their faces had not yet faded, and they were wondering:
How can I not be terrified?
Why not be surprised?
What about your curiosity?
Why did you accept it so calmly?
As if there was nothing worth worrying about.
It was like seeing a common cold that could be cured with a bottle of pick-me-up, rather than some major problem.
Looking at Snape's still expressionless face, they asked this question in their hearts.
[Riddle asked their question for them: "Aren't you going to ask why this happened?"
"There's no need, everyone has secrets." Snape said this?
Since Riddle didn't say it on his own initiative, it meant that this was Riddle's secret and he didn't need his self-righteous help.
So there was no need for him to ask.]
That's right.
Snape was influenced by Peacock's gentleness and tolerance, so he also developed his gentleness and tolerance.
But compared to the more extroverted Peacock, Snape's gentleness is more difficult to detect.
"It's the splitting of the soul."
They watched the video and Riddle said this as Snape was about to leave.
Soul Split!!!
They stared at the screen in shock, wishing they could get inside and isolate Snape and Riddle as far away as possible.
What would Snape do?
The teacher is a murderer.
They must have thought Snape would stay away, but now they were not so sure.
They didn't dare look at Snape with any thoughts of their own.
Because humans cannot guess what fairies are thinking, nor can they guess what the children raised by fairies are thinking.
Sure enough, Snape told Peacock about this, but Peacock said:
"If you want to believe him, then believe that he is innocent and was harmed by magic.
If you doubt him, then ask him why he did it, magic, or murder? Why did he do it? Is he hard-working or is he just evil? If he is evil, then we should stay away from him. You still have me, and we are not afraid of him.
In short, don't waver, you will hurt yourself and your friends."
They were no longer surprised by what Peacock said. Fairies were always like that, kind, firm and brave.
They watched the screen, watching Snape's choice.
