Chapter 219 The First Confrontation and Miscalculation (Please Vote for Me)
"Well, Miss Kaslana, let me think about it."
Severus Snape turned around, pulled back his sleeves expressionlessly, lowered his head and the one-meter-tall dwarf standing behind him said softly in his slow tone:
"As the first dual house in the history of Hogwarts - well, a celebrity, you deserve some preferential treatment. For example, whether you add points or deduct points, it should be decided based on the house uniform you wear... Yes Is it like this?”
Snape's eyes wandered over Hermione and Hannah for a while, and finally landed on the silly owl on Elena's chest. The round, fat chicken head just blocked the color of Elena's college mark and bow tie - -However, based on the conversation he vaguely heard before, it was probably Gryffindor's gold and red color.
"Yes, yes, Professor Snape, you are really enlightened, kind and wise."
As if she didn't hear the joking in Snape's tone, Elena blinked quickly, trying to pretend to be innocent and cute, silently praying that her blood magic would work on Snape.
Since entering the magical world, her once invincible cuteness has become increasingly difficult to use.
Judging from the current record: it only took effect once against Gellert Grindelwald, never once against Dumbledore, and all took effect against Hagrid, but Elena suspected that there was part of the reason for this. It stems from Hagrid's subconscious preference for dangerous magical creatures.
According to Elena's understanding of Severus Snape, the difficulty of influencing His Highness the Half-blood Prince with Veela's own [Charming Humanoid] is roughly equivalent to conquering ten Albus Dunes. Bledo - The living can never defeat the dead. There may be no one in this world who can replace Lily Potter's position in Snape's heart.
"Enlightened, kind and wise?"
Snape raised his eyebrows and twisted his thin lips into a strange smile. This seemed to be the first time he had heard such a comment from a student in so many years.
And the strangest thing is that the little guy in front of him clearly has a conversation with him for the first time, but he shows a feeling of familiarity that makes people feel uncomfortable - especially in those clear lake-blue eyes, there always seems to be a hint of familiarity. With a disturbing hint of...compassion and respect?
"Yes...yes."
Elena nodded bravely.
It was the first time that he faced Snape's cold, paralyzed face at close range. Even though he knew the good intentions in the wizard's heart, the psychological pressure was still really great.
No wonder the Skyfall series has always been a nightmare for childhood sweethearts. In addition to the famous Westermarck effect, purely in terms of appearance, compared to James Potter, who has a bit of a bad look in the sunshine, Sneijder Professor Pu's melancholic literary style was simply beaten up by one side, not to mention that Harry's father was an evil rich man. (For more information about the "Westermarck Effect", click here to expand the comments)
Snape's eyes were fixed on Elena's face like an awl, his eyebrows raised, and he sneered, "In other words, in Miss Kaslana's opinion, the form just now was praiseworthy?"
If the atmosphere was just a little tense just now, now it seems as if someone has cast a large-scale freezing spell and silencing spell on the entire auditorium, and even the temperature seems to have dropped by two or three degrees.
Taking one look at the terrifying curve at the corner of Snape's mouth and the increasingly stagnant atmosphere around her, Elena swallowed, gritted her teeth, and her heart skipped a beat - No matter what, let's talk about it first, there must be dreams, just in case It’s been realized.
Anyway, Professor Snape is a well-educated and good person, and he shouldn't hit girls in public... right?
"For example...if the deduction points can be divided evenly and the bonus points can be doubled, I think it might be better."
Elena pinched the two small wings of the food reserve, poked them gently like her own fingers, carefully took a small step back, and said in a tentative tone:
"After all, people don't always say that a piece of happiness shared with one person becomes half happiness, and a piece of pain shared with two people becomes half pain."
"..."
There was a slightly long silence.
All the surrounding students subconsciously took a breath of air and looked at Elena as if they were a hero—or a martyr. She was worthy of being able to threaten the existence of the Sorting Hat in front of Professor McGonagall. .
You know, even Peeves walked around when facing Professor Snape.
The corners of Severus Snape's eyes twitched, and he felt as if the blood vessels on his forehead could not help but bulge. He suddenly understood why Dumbledore specifically reminded him that during the first lesson this morning At this time, you should pay attention to your emotional control.
Deduction points are divided evenly and bonus points are doubled?
Is this child scared out of his wits or too brave, or both - the combination of Hufflepuff's single-cell brain circuit and Gryffindor's extraordinary courage to die is truly a particularly terrifying existence. , Fortunately, when he originally arranged the classes, he did not put the two colleges into the same class.
"very good."
Snape took a deep breath and glanced at the young wizards around him. His cold gaze made both senior and junior students tremble.
"very good."
He repeated it softly again, straightened up, took a deep look at the innocent-looking white-haired little witch in front of him, the smile on his face gradually disappeared, and a cold light shot out of his eyes, and he spoke softly.
"Then, I hope Miss Kaslana's amazing eloquence can help you distinguish the difference between nettle grass and cold water flower. Otherwise, I don't mind imposing two penalties at the same time - in addition to deducting points, there are also related Things like confinement and after-school labor – like staying after school to skin lizards and prepare black beetle eyes.”
"It's not a big problem. I have carefully previewed the Potions textbook before. Our first-year Potions class materials will only involve nettle grass. If the professor accidentally mixes wrong materials that are out of class in the material section, I promise to help. You figured it out in advance.”
Hearing the familiar "Snape-style" threat, Elena breathed a sigh of relief - as long as she accepted Professor Snape's personality, no matter how she looked at it, she was a stupid and poisonous otaku with very weak lethality. .
The girl looked up to the cold-faced Potions professor and said with a playful smile, "So, according to your logic, if I get extra points, can I also get double rewards accordingly?"
"Hogwarts has never had a tradition of rewarding an act twice. As for which house gets extra points, I will decide based on your class schedule - although, I think this may not happen at all."
Snape's face froze and he said in a stiff tone. After speaking, he waved his sleeves, turned around and walked directly to the classroom seat.
He has never seen such a shameless first-year freshman. Even the Weasley twins, who are currently the most troublesome, at least when facing him, are as well-behaved as two dumb balmino. protozoan.
"Don't worry, Professor. You're saying this now because you don't know me yet. When you get to know me..."
Looking at Professor Snape who looked helpless, the hair on Elena's head swayed happily, and she followed the wizard's dangling black robe like a little follower and said.
"Elena Kaslana! Go back to your seat, otherwise, you may be detained by me in the first class..."
Snape suddenly stopped, stood on the spot, turned around and said with an evil expression.
boom!
Before Snape could finish his words, the silver-haired little witch who was following him bumped headlong into Snape, knocking the Potions Professor off guard and almost falling to the ground.
The reason why it was said to be "almost" was because just when Snape was about to lose his balance, a small white hand accurately grabbed his arm and helped stabilize his body.
"you!"
"Oh, it hurts. Professor, why did you stop suddenly?"
Elena raised her other hand and rubbed her red forehead, curled her lips, and looked aggrieved.
"...Do you have any other questions you want to ask? Ka, Si, Lan, Na, Miss?!"
Snape stood firm, took a deep breath, leaned down and looked into Elena's eyes, his voice squeezed out through his teeth word by word - this little guy who is like a dog-skin plaster, is Dumbledore Was he specially recruited into the school to torture him?
"But Professor, you haven't told me yet, which college table should I sit at?"
Elena blinked and said innocently.
"Where are you sitting?" Snape frowned.
"Yes, should I go to Hufflepuff or Gryffindor?" Elena spread her hands in distress. At this time, it is undoubtedly most appropriate to let Professor Snape take the blame. The choice was made.
Obviously, who else is more suitable to help her than the just (Head of Slytherin House) and dignified (the most terrifying Potions professor in history) Professor Severus Snape? Find a safe balance in a deadly field of shyness?
Snape glanced at the golden and red lion pattern on Elena's chest, then glanced at the two little lolita in the distance who were looking nervously at Elena, and his eyes fell on Elena's face again. , a familiar and annoying breath of a winner in life came to my face.
——What a nasty little guy.
"It seems that you enjoy wandering between colleges, right? Miss Kaslana."
The Potions Professor raised his eyebrows slightly, took out his wand and tapped Elena. The golden-red lion pattern twisted and suddenly turned into a silver-green snake-shaped pattern.
"This morning, you sat down at the Slytherin House table. As the Head of Slytherin House, you still have some rights."
"Eh?!"
Elena slowly lowered her head and subconsciously tugged on the shirt and tie in her robe - all of them changed into the style of Slytherin House.
After glancing at Elena, who had a look of astonishment on her face, Snape curled up his lips with satisfaction and said softly.
"Don't worry, I will change it back before class, so you don't have to worry about Slytherin's score..."
Before Snape could finish speaking, the little loli's eyes lit up, she turned around, took Hannah's hand, and ran away without looking back.
"Wait! Elena Kaslana, come back!"
