Chapter 53 Guarantee
"Don't be so self-indulgent. I don't care about you." Snape said with an unnatural look, "If something happens to you, no one will sign the consent form for Hogsmeade Village for me."
Tsk, that’s awkward.
Jiang Li stretched out his evil hand and began to rub Snape's fluffy hair.
"Gardenia!"
Snape called out her name through gritted teeth.
Feeling that the other party was getting angry, Jiang Li immediately let go of his hand and said with a smile: "I have to go to class, you can play with Lily."
After saying that, he quickly walked in the opposite direction with his boots.
Snape smoothed his messy hair and turned to look at Lily.
Then he saw Lily holding her face with her hands, smiling foolishly at the direction he and Jiang Li left.
Snape:?
"What's wrong with you?" Snape asked.
Did you drink the elixir?
"You and Ali have a really good relationship." Lily looked at Snape with relief in her eyes and said, "You two must be fine."
Snape listened to this and felt something was wrong.
“In fact, I have always been curious about this.”
Lily seemed to have thought of something, and looked at Snape with burning eyes and asked, "What is your relationship with Jiang Li?"
She had always thought that Snape and Jiang Li were siblings, but on the first day of school she found out that they had different surnames and were not related by blood.
Snape was silent for a few seconds, then said slowly, "I have no relatives, so I live with Jiang Li."
Lily hadn't expected that answer.
She looked at Snape apologetically and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't expect that all your relatives have passed away..."
"It's okay, I'm very happy now." Snape said with a relaxed look.
In his previous life, Irene's death did give him a big blow, but in this life, Irene is still alive and has returned to the Prince family. He has forgotten that bastard Tobias and should be able to live a life without worries about food and clothing.
He didn't owe Irene anything anymore.
This is good for everyone.
Seeing that he really didn't seem sad, Lily asked curiously: "So what is your relationship with Ali now, are you friends?"
If we are friends, then we must be the best friends in the world.
Lily thought enviously in her heart.
Snape remembered what Jiang Li had asked him that day, and looked at Jiang Li firmly and said, "She is my family."
"Really!"
Lily's eyes became brighter. She covered her mouth and looked at Snape excitedly, with a look of inexplicable relief.
"Of course it's true. Why do you look like that?"
Snape looked at Lily in confusion, thinking that her reaction seemed a little strange.
"Nothing, I'm just so happy to hear the news."
The smile on Lily's lips was filled with joy that could not be suppressed. She said to Snape, "I saw Tiffany. I'll go over and say something to her."
After saying that, Lily ran to Tiffany like a joyful little bird.
Snape watched Lily and Tiffany talk. Tiffany had an excited look on her face. She glanced in his direction with a loving look, then jumped and screamed while holding Lily's hands.
Snape: ...You're sick.
Is this girl crazy? She's running around like a frog.
He felt that he had to persuade Lily to stay away from the other person, so as not to be infected and become a fool.
Jiang Li knew his route for the day, so he tried to avoid the original route and went to the Hogwarts library.
Madam Pings was somewhat surprised to see Jiang Li at this point.
"Mrs. Pince, I want to find books about dark magic items. Do you know where they are?" Jiang Li asked in a friendly manner.
"Dark magic belongs to the restricted area. I can't let you enter the restricted area without Dumbledore's permission. It's very dangerous there." Madam Pince warned.
"If I get consent from Headmaster Dumbledore, can I enter the restricted area?" Jiang Li asked.
"Yes," Madam Pince replied.
Jiang Li nodded, indicating that he understood.
She did not immediately go to Dumbledore to ask for a pass to the restricted area, but instead found the history of Hogwarts and started reading it.
Although school history will not fully record what happened in the past, some things can be inferred from some clues.
The Slytherin's Chamber of Secrets can only be opened by their descendants, but according to relevant records, the last heir of the Gaunt family, which is related to the Slytherin bloodline, died more than 20 years ago.
Jiang Li tapped the books on the table with his fingertips.
She wondered how she would ensure that the person who opened the Chamber of Secrets she left behind was her descendant if she were a Slytherin.
In her previous life, she also obtained a lot of declining inheritances, which either had to be passed by force or required the blood power of the same clan.
Many ancient families have their own unique bloodline talents.
What impressed Jiang Li the most at that time was that there was a family with Taotie bloodline. They would eat people during a fight and would not stop fighting until they were full. They would not distinguish between friend and foe and would attack everyone.
The power of this bloodline was so crazy that it was later destroyed by the coalition of other families.
The descendants of Slytherin also have a talent. They can communicate with snakes and command them to do various things.
Parseltongue.
Jiang Li closed the book. She roughly knew how to open the secret room, but she didn't know where the secret room was now.
After finding a few more books, Jiang Li registered with Madam Pince and borrowed a few books on alchemy.
Jiang Li climbed eight floors and finally arrived at Headmaster Dumbledore's office.
There is an ugly stone statue at the door.
"Lemon Olaf."
Jiang Li shouted commands to the stone statue.
She remembered that Professor McGonagall gave the password the last time she came.
The statue did not move.
Has the password been changed?
"Zizz Bee Candy."
"Pile of cockroaches."
"Bibi Every Flavour Beans..."
After Jiang Li tried seven or eight passwords and none of them worked, she began to wonder if Dumbledore would be angry if she just blew the place up.
"Gardenia, why are you here?"
Dumbledore's voice sounded behind him.
Jiang Li turned her head and saw Dumbledore looking at her gently.
"I remember you should be teaching students now."
He walked up to the stone statue and spoke the command to it.
"green bean cake."
The statue opened immediately.
He blinked at Jiang Li and said cunningly, "The pastries you gave me last time were delicious, so I changed the password to this."
Jiang Li really didn't expect the password to be changed to this.
She followed Dumbledore into the headmaster's office.
Dumbledore's table was filled with candies. He invited Jiang Li, "Would you like to try some?"
Jiang Li picked a lemon mint candy from the pile of candies, tore it open and started eating.
"It seems that you really like mint-flavored hard candy," said Dumbledore.
"Mint is refreshing and I like the feeling of being awake."
Jiang Li thought about his purpose and said directly to Dumbledore: "Principal, I want to enter the restricted area, but Madam Pince needs your approval."
Dumbledore tore a candy for himself, and immediately a cockroach-like candy crawled out. He grabbed it and it turned into chocolate.
"Why do you want to go to the Restricted Section?" asked Dumbledore.
"I recently found a black magic item, and I wanted to find out how to remove the curse on it, but there is no record of black magic in the ordinary book section." Jiang Li said frankly.
As Dumbledore watched, she grabbed a handful of candy and stuffed it into her bracelet.
"I can grant you a pass, but you have to promise me that you won't use those dark magics for bad things."
Dumbledore's blue eyes looked at Jiang Li seriously.
Jiang Li stuffed the last lemon candy on the table into his bracelet and promised: "I will never use black magic to do bad things."
Dumbledore looked at Jiang Li as if he was looking at his past self.
"Child, you are a very powerful wizard. I don't want you to go astray because of a momentary desire and do something that you will regret."
