"Bud, give me the materials I prepared yesterday!"

"Yes, my master!"

Holding the information handed over by the house elf, Snape walked towards the outside of the dormitory.

Yes, house-elf, a gift from Kingsley to Snape.According to him, there were too many of these little things in the Ministry of Magic's house-elf resettlement office, where one of his uncles worked, and Snape was willing to accept this thing to lighten his uncle's burden.

Snape naturally understood, just listen to this. Although house elves are not high-end goods, they don't have a bunch of idle ones like Kingsley said.

Just look at Newt Scamander. He has worked in this department for two years. Basically, he goes to work every day, dazes or reads a book, and leaves work. There is nothing in between. , it can be seen how few idle house-elves are.

In the kitchen, when Kingsley and Snape talked about this matter, Snape originally refused. He didn't want to owe such a big favor.

Unexpectedly, the next day, a house-elf came to the door by himself, holding a certificate that the house-elf resettled the office, and Snape's name was clearly written on it, even if Snape threw it to this little guy A piece of clothing was also owed, so Snape had no choice but to accept this special gift.

Although Snape was a little displeased at being given a wave of gifts forcibly, it must be said that this gift was indeed very useful.Everything in life is organized by this little guy, even if it is something written down by hand, it will help to sort it out.

After trying for a day, Snape was very happy to give the house elf a name - Bard, a name recorded in "History of Magic", one of Merlin's knights, also known as Balthazar.

To name the house-elf is to complete the house-elf's recognition ceremony, and the magic contract engraved in their blood will be completed.

Speaking of naming, Snape also mentioned the matter of name magic. After recording it in the memo, he continued to study the knowledge of ghosts.

I have to say that the house elf is indeed a very good helper. In addition to taking care of people in life, some magic experiment assistants can also be competent.

Snape tried to make Bud brew some potions, and it turned out that it was completely feasible for house elves to brew potions.

In short, having such a little guy helped Snape a lot.

After Flitwick found out that Snape had a house-elf, although he felt a little surprised, he was more happy for Snape.He was not polite to Snape either, and directly said that some letters and the like could be delivered faster and more promptly by the house elves.

Snape said grandly that Bard could treat Flitwick as his other master, which made Flitwick quietly moved.

As for Bud, it has no opinion. The first reason is that the master's order is above all else, and the second reason is the values ​​of house elves. House elves who can take on more work are the real ones. Such a good house-elf, Snape's order was a blessing to Bard, and Bard was so moved that his eyes were teary.

"Organize the materials I wrote yesterday. I hope I can see when I come back that they are no longer a mess." Before going out, Snape instructed Bud.

"I will, master! Bud is an excellent house-elf!" Bud said loudly, his eyes full of pride, with his thin chest upright.

"I've never doubted this." Snape twitched his mouth, left a word, and walked out of the dormitory. He didn't need to look at him to know that Bud was so moved that he was crying.

Well, does this count as living a life that I once hated?Snape laughed to himself, then put the thought behind him.

"Hey, Sev!" A familiar voice came from behind Snape, and Snape turned his head to see Lily and Pandora coming out of the room.

"Good morning." Snape greeted.

"Good morning." Pandora responded softly, staring at Snape with big eyes, almost overflowing with emotion.

"It's been a long time since you've been with us, Sev!" Lily pouted, her resentful eyes fell directly on Snape's face, "I don't know what you're busy with."

"It's just some small things." Snape said lightly, and then looked at them, "Are you guys going to have a picnic?" He noticed that the two of them were not wearing school uniforms, but ordinary clothes.

"You won't forget, will you?" Lily looked at Snape strangely, "Today is Halloween!"

So it's Halloween already? !Snape suddenly realized that if Lily hadn't said it, he really wouldn't have noticed that the time had come.Every day was spent in class and studying magic. Even Hagrid's material identification was taken by Bud and handed to him for identification. The date and the like had long been blurred in his mind.

"By the way, the school has notified that there will be a masquerade party tonight, let's participate together!" Lily suddenly thought of this, her eyes lit up, and she looked at Snape expectantly.

"Masquerade?" Snape remembered, speaking of it, this is also a Hogwarts tradition, every Halloween, there will be such a dance, in Snape's view, wizards hold masquerade It's still a little strange, maybe it's also taking care of little wizards from Muggle families.

"I'm not sure." Snape thought for a while, and replied hesitantly, "If time permits, I will go."

"Okay!" Lily nodded with some disappointment.

"Come on, Lily." Pandora pulled her and whispered in her ear, "Sev must be going to see Professor Flitwick, you know, he always likes to go there. However, yesterday Professor Flitwick has said that he will attend today, and I think Sev will definitely come too."

The more Pandora talked, the brighter Lily's eyes became, and she kept nodding her head while listening.

"That's right!" Lily said excitedly, glanced at Snape secretly, and whispered to Pandora again.

Snape looked at the two little girls gathered together, and shook his head helplessly.He did hear some of their words, something that made him unable to recognize them, but he didn't care. If it wasn't necessary, he really didn't want to go to a dance or something.

"You talk first, I'll go find Professor Flitwick."

"Go, go!" Lily glanced at him with a smile, and even opened the door specially for him, which made Snape a little strange, but he still went straight to the eighth floor without thinking too much.

He would also hand over the newly sorted information to Flitwick.
