Chapter 2503 Return to the Italian Community
Snape, who left Buckingham Palace first, naturally left England one step earlier than Lupine, Hermione and others. It's just that compared to Lupine and the others who have the world's safety in mind, Snape obviously doesn't care much about the situation on the second battlefield, where the situation is deteriorating rapidly...or at least he certainly won't take the initiative to get involved in the first place .
Although he didn't listen to all of Maca's words that night, he had already noticed that something big would happen next, relying on his keen sense of changes in the overall situation.
Undoubtedly, Maca, who was originally feigning death and acting as a demon, suddenly took the initiative to reveal his identity-this can already explain a lot of problems!
However, to be honest, Snape personally didn't really care much about these developments...
"Wow... boom..."
The heavy waves gently slapped the side of the ship, splashing a lot of water, and the ship passed by at a constant speed among the undulating waves, leaving behind a fleeting white streak.
Snape hung his arms crossed in front of his body, letting the sea wind rattle the black cloak behind him. After the boat sailed for a while, he turned his head and turned his deep but inexplicably hollow gaze to the place that had been gradually left behind. Clouds behind.
The next moment, as the space suddenly distorted, there was no figure on the deck, only an empty ship that had lost power and gradually slowed down was swaying endlessly with the waves.
...
When Snape reappeared, he had already come to a deserted intersection.
At this time, it was not too long before he left the UK, and the sky had not yet dawned. The old street lamps on the street seemed to be in poor contact, flickering and flickering, which confused the moths looking for light.
But Snape didn't hesitate. After looking around, he seemed to have found his way, and strode along the brick road on the left.
Not long after, he stopped in front of a street house covered in night and a little light, and after another glance at the nameplate hanging on the lintel, he stretched out his hand and knocked heavily on the door .
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
The way of knocking on the door was a little rough. It was obvious that Snape's patience was running out after he had personally ventured through the disaster-stricken London and left in a hurry.
"Bang bang bang!"
Because no one came to answer the door, Snape who knocked on the door again seemed even more impatient. Although there are still only three strokes,
But the movement became louder and louder, completely breaking the tranquility before dawn.
A few seconds later, with a few soft "squeaks" and "clicks", the door in front of him did not open, but the windows on the second or first floors of several other houses on this street opened in response. One by one, heads poked out from the windows together with the curtains.
Then, voices of doubt or surprise entered Snape's ears.
"Professor Snape?"
"Professor Snape, is that you? Are you back?"
"professor?"
"Is it Severus?"
Those voices made Snape frowned slightly, but he didn't show much dissatisfaction because of it. At the same time, the door in front of him finally opened, and a tall figure appeared at the door, frowning and looking at Sneak who suddenly came to knock on his door early in the morning. general.
It's just that Snape obviously didn't care what kind of eyes the other party looked at him. When he saw the other party appearing, he immediately said:
"Call everyone together, I will say a few words, and then leave."
"Ok?"
Under the reflection of the lights in the room, the tall figure blocking the door looked a little dark, and he couldn't see his expression clearly. But you don't need to look, you can tell by the tone of voice that the other party's temper is not very good.
"What's the matter? You came here early in the morning to disturb people's dreams, and even ordered me to come? Why did you call everyone? What's the matter? What are you going to say?"
Snape heard the words, but there was no further reaction, he just said lightly:
"I went to London."
"what?"
Hearing this, the other party finally changed his tone, as if he suddenly realized the great meaning behind Snape's words. And at this moment, the people who had been in the other houses on the street also left the house one after another, and gathered on the street one after another.
Those faces were clearly familiar, at least to the two of them here. It was all Hogwarts students from all years, and even Mrs. Hooch, the flying teacher, who happened to live nearby.
It was obvious by now that Snape had come to...or more precisely "returned" to this Italian residential complex where the teachers and students of Hogwarts had previously hid.
"You go in first."
Aberforth, who was standing at the door, took a step diagonally, walked to Snape's side, and let the door blocked by his tall figure before.
"Rolanda, you go in too."
After saying something to Snape and Mrs. Hooch, he strode towards the young wizards who gathered, waved his hands and said in a deep voice:
"Go back, it's not yet dawn! Don't run around in pajamas, go back to the house!"
Aberforth yelled, seemingly oblivious to the fact that he was also wearing a nightgown.
These students are actually senior prefects or students with relatively excellent grades. These days, they are receiving targeted teaching and training from several professors, and they are going to gradually start to participate in the inspection and defense of the community. The rest Students don't live here.
But it was obvious that they didn't need to gather here now, and there were some things that they didn't need to know for the time being, so Aberforth drove them back to their houses loudly.
Snape didn't pay attention to this, as long as Aberforth got out of the way, he had already entered the living room that was regarded by the other party as the "temporary business location of the Pig's Head Bar", and sat down at the round table in the middle.
"Severus, what happened?"
Mrs. Hooch still had short, pinpoint gray hair, and piercing yellow eagle-like eyes. She is naturally not good at Charms and Defense Against the Dark Arts, but in the face of many disasters today, her determination to resist is no less than that of other Hogwarts professors.
But Snape shook his head when he heard her question, sat there motionless, just lowered his eyes and said:
"We'll talk about it when everyone comes."
Seeing this, Mrs. Huo Qi knew that the other party's temper would definitely not tell her in advance, so she could only pull out a chair beside her and sat down.
Not long after, Aberforth, who drove the little wizards back to their residences, also returned to the house. Perhaps he had already managed to inform all the professors at Hogwarts that he didn't do anything more after he came in, and he didn't look at Snape any more. He just walked into the simple bar counter and rubbed him as usual. That glass goblet.
He probably wasn't going to change the nightgown with the goat pattern on him.
