Harry Potter’s Book of Sin Chapter 2474: The zombie girl is so polite
The person Snape really wanted to meet here was the mysterious lord of the dead. As for Mr. John Stewart, who hid in the room and refused to show his face, it was just that he just grabbed the little character who asked for a few words without being able to see the Lord right away.
To make an analogy, it’s probably like just missing a subway train, dragging a passerby on the platform and asking the other person about the scenic spots of the destination—the only connection between the two parties. Maybe it's just that the other party happened to have been to that place before.
So, there is one thing that John actually guessed right, and that is that Snape really didn't have much interest in him. After asking two questions, and some inferences in his heart were proved from the side by John's answer, Snape stopped talking nonsense, turned and left.
……
The weather outside Buckingham Palace is still the same as usual. The huge icicles directly above the clouds draw the sun's rays from the top, and through countless refraction and attenuation, it turns into the colorful afterglow during the day.
This was the first time Snape came here. Compared to the shock he felt when he was near London City and looked up at this incredible Optimus icicle from the outside, the observation inside the ice city at this time It's a different feeling.
Standing on the big square outside the main entrance, he put his hands on his chest and raised his chin slightly, following the huge gap in the ice wall, he cast his gaze into the distance without expression. He seemed to be thinking about something, and he didn't seem to think about anything, just in a trance.
I don't know how long it took, he suddenly seemed to have noticed something, and finally turned from Jing, turning his head to look at the exit of the ice cave on the other side of the square.
"Mr. Severus Snape, isn't it? Hello." A figure came out from there, and walked straight to this side, taking a steady pace, "Welcome to the city of icicles. , I hope my companions have not done anything rude to you that offends you."
The person who came was a woman--of course, if the living corpse family did retain the gender before his death, then at least the living corpse who came to Snape must be a female in terms of posture.
Because in Snape's opinion, this appearance is much closer to humans than other living corpses he has seen so far. Even if it weren't for the gray, pale and lifeless skin, he might really treat the other person as a woman.
After looking at it for a moment, when the opponent got closer and closer, Snape frowned:
"Who are you?"
"Do you want to ask my name?" Perhaps feeling Snape's resistance to his approach, the other party finally stopped and stood conveniently about thirty feet away from Snape. Definitely said, "The master gave me and my brother a common name called'Swallow', but our clan doesn't really need a name. If your Excellency is willing to call me'Swallow', it would be better-I My brother and I are very grateful to the master for giving the name, and they also like this name. But if you feel inconvenience, you can call me whatever you want."
The other party was indeed very detailed, and he was also very polite and considerate. Through the gradual learning and adaptation during this period, the zombie girl, one of the twins, has become more and more like a truly complete and even connotative intelligent life.
Just like what Snape felt when he looked at the other party for the first time, standing there at the moment seemed to be a human female with outstanding temperament but restrained.
This is a living corpse?
What happened here during the time when the entire old British area was almost isolated from the outside world and could not be seen by others?
Even Snape, who had probably learned something from Bill, Lupin, Kingsley and others, and Granger just now, couldn’t help but behave for the living female corpse in front of him. The information revealed was amazed by the dark feeling-he had already seen high-level living corpses outside the city before, but although those high-level living corpses had extremely powerful and dangerous auras, they were far from in front of him. The temperament and self-cultivation that this living corpse girl showed that only humans had had had a great impact on him.
Of course, no matter how surprised and confounded in my heart, with Snape's Occlumency skills, at least on the surface there will be nothing unusual. There was only a momentary pause, and he heard him speak again:
"That’s right. Anyway, I don’t have any interest in what your name is. What I want to ask is, what is your status among your people—this helps me to judge whether you let me The value of spending time on you."
To be honest, if it were placed in human society—whether it was Muggle society or the magical world—Snape’s words would have been very provocative. Even if the opponent happens to be a grumpy guy, it might be possible to fight immediately.
Fortunately, standing in front of Snape right now was a living corpse.
Even if the living corpse girl has already acquired the emotions and emotions that humans have, the nature of the high-level living corpse after awakening still makes her more inclined to treat people and things rationally. This mode of thinking makes her acting style very similar to Snape.
On the other hand, Snape's spirit was clearly aware of this in a few words, and he said it so blatantly~IndoMTL.com~ So the next moment, I saw that the girl with the living corpse was still there. Nodded calmly, politely:
"Your Excellency, please don’t worry too much. In fact, every individual in my clan is the most loyal follower of the master, even if we all have our own temperaments and habits, but our general direction of action is Consistent. Your inquiries and requests from any of our tribes are no different to me, so just treat me as a whole...Of course, only if I can understand your will expression like I do. High-ranking people."
After saying this, the girl paused for a while, but then suddenly turned the topic back to the question she had spoken to at the beginning, saying:
"But before listening to your question, I actually want to ask the question just now-I don’t know, whether my companions have done anything rude to you, so that you stand alone in this chill. On the overflowing square? If so, please allow me to express my sincerest apologies to you on behalf of my family."
It wasn't until this moment that Snape realized that the politeness shown by the living corpse girl didn't seem to be a pure polite appearance, she was so polite!
