“Where did you get the time to read so many books?” Travers was more curious about the timing. “Lestrange’s books—I can understand that, but Snape, you… …”
Greengrass had always heard that Snape’s family was poor, he wore second-hand robes when he entered school, and even his books were second-hand old books. Did he have rich learning resources before entering school?
“Rigie helped me filter out a lot of meaningless books,” Snape said honestly.
Most of the books he reads have asked Reggie’s opinion before reading, and Reggie has taught him all the money with his great financial resources and a lot of knowledge he has written down from the Slytherin mark before.
Furthermore, since he had the idea of building a library in the magic world, Reggie spent a lot of gold Galleons to acquire magic books, which is one of the big reasons why he will do anything to earn gold Galleons.
“And we don’t join clubs, we don’t quarrel with Gryffindors, and we don’t get locked up,” Snape added dryly after thinking for a while.
This means they have more time to study.
“I think it’s because you can master a lot of spells in class, you don’t need extra practice time after class, and you can quickly find reference materials when writing your thesis.” Vivian came over and returned Regis’s transfiguration class notes. .
No matter how in-demand the library seats are, and how many people go to the school hospital due to the pressure, the exams still arrive as scheduled.
Charms, Potions, and Transfiguration are practical exams, while the others are written exams.
“Very good, Reggie.” Professor Flitwick of the Charms class watched with great satisfaction as Deanna made an apple spin in the air at a constant speed, and then fell precisely into the third floating cup.

“Today is Reggie’s birthday,” Lily announced Tuesday morning as she walked to a table for several people.
The marauders stared at her with wide-eyed surprise.
“What?” James dragged his tone. “Lee-Evans, how do you know Reggie’s birthday?”
“Potter!” Lily gave him a stern look.
Perhaps, she could consider returning to Hogwarts as a professor after graduation, and wizards will experience the fear of being dominated by two McGonagall professors.
James smirked, forgot to ask the reason for a moment, scratched the back of his head, which was never obedient, and said, “We have to throw a party for him! By the way, why didn’t you tell us your birthday before?”
“Why should I tell you!” Lily snorted. “Besides, Remus knows my birthday!”
Lupin hung his head silently at James’ glaring gaze, who had always been able to remember his friends’ birthdays.
But this time—he did forget Reggie’s birthday.
“Hey, Evans,” said Sirius in a cheerful voice. “Have you got a present?”
“certainly.”
Lily was almost smiling, “Don’t you? Blake? Oh, I wouldn’t have forgotten my best friend’s birthday.”
Lily casts suspicious eyes on the other marauders, and the boys have good reason to believe that if he says no he won’t even want to talk to Lily today, especially James, he doesn’t want to leave Lily bad for this impression.
“Sure,” said Sirius, smiling, “right, James?”
“When…of course, we were ready, what are you talking about Evans, Reggie is our good brother.”
Although she was still suspicious, Lily threw her hair back to her place without saying anything.
……
Inside the house upon request.
Under the influence of Lily, many people gathered in the room of Requirement today.
This time it wasn’t a D.A.M club event, it was St. Regis’ birthday party.
“So, where is my gift?” Looking at the four looters in front of him, Reggie asked confidently.
“You’ll know when the party is over.” Sirius said smugly, with a sly light in his eyes.
“I don’t think you must have a good heart.” Slowly withdrawing his hand, Reggie said slowly, he didn’t care about the gifts prepared by several people.
Well, in fact, he admits that he doesn’t expect anything from everyone’s gifts.
If it weren’t for Lily, Snape wouldn’t betray, and Reggie wouldn’t necessarily have attended this… impromptu birthday party.
“Our trust is so fragile.” Sirius pretended to be sad.
“Do we have trust between us?” Regis asked subconsciously.
“Merlin’s briefs! Regis!” Sirius let out a long sigh and shook his head, “Today you are as mean as the big bat behind you.”
An eerie long silence.
Snape blinked slowly, staring at him motionless.
“So… let’s get started?”
“I can’t wait.” Lily said excitedly, her eyes glowing in the candlelight.
“Okay…party, start.” Regis smiled, then waved his wand, and a firework shot from the tip of the wand and exploded.
The whole room also began to change.
Everyone was shocked by the hand he showed.
Reggie hooked the corner of his mouth, joking, this was specially asked Slughorn to learn, after all, the other party is very good at hosting parties.
It really came in handy today, and although Reggie wasn’t under any illusions about the planning abilities of these guys, deep down he was glad that they could prepare a birthday party for him.
The Room of Requirement was rendered in gold and red, with silver-green ribbons hanging on the walls. Everyone in James’ and Lily’s bedroom attended the party. It was a little cramped and unfamiliar at first, but it soon started under the influence of music. Relax and enjoy.
Lily and Marlene McKinnon have finally made a passable cake after hours of tinkering in the Hogwarts kitchen.
As for the drinks, Lily realized something was wrong when she saw the red faces of several boys.
She walked over to a few people, then picked the best one, shook the boy’s shoulder and shouted, “Potter! What did you drink?”
James saw that it was her, and immediately smirked: “Uh… a little, a little wine, maybe a glass or two glasses?”
“Wine?” Lily exclaimed in shock. “You guys drink? Hey! You’re only fourteen!”
“Aren’t you fourteen too? What right do you have to take care of me?” James said drunkenly.
“Correct, I’m fifteen years old this year. I’m a few months older than you! Besides, as a rare normal person among us, of course I can’t let you do stupid things!” Lily reprimanded.
If Professor McGonagall catches them drinking, Gryffindor is waiting to be the last!
She still has a very collective sense of honor. Although she does not pursue academy grades as much as Amelia, she will try not to allow herself to deduct points from the academy.
“Evans” saw the Dementor, and she heard Sirius’ voice again.
“Do you want some?” He shook the cup in his hand.
Lily endured it, but dragged James and walked over angrily, “What are you doing?”
“Drink.” Sirius said lightly, his face also a little red under the influence of alcohol.
Lily resisted the urge to curse the two guys.
Not only her, but others also noticed something was wrong.
“Potter!” Marlene and Amelia came over, and James thought they were really done.
“What are you doing? What smells on you?” Amelia asked in disgust, wrinkling her nose.
Seeing this serious witch, James woke up instantly, then smirked: “I-I-”
“He drank!” Sirius still felt that the situation was not chaotic enough.
“What?” Mary and Amelia screamed at the same time. “How dare you! I’m going to tell Professor McGonagall about this! You wait in confinement!”
“Hey, what are you doing?” Ridge pulled over and asked with a smile.
“Potter is drinking!” Lily shouted angrily. “Professor McGonagall will kill us! Look! So many!”
“Isn’t Professor McGonagall here yet?” Reggie said casually, ignoring James’ frantic cry for help, “We rarely have such a lively party except for the Christmas ball. So Lily, Amelia, Mary , Marlene, be happy.”
James looked at him with admiration.
Seeing that Amelia seemed to want to refute, Reggie didn’t give her a chance to speak, but changed her voice: “I think I should blow out the candles, do you want to accompany me?”
“Of course, Reggie.” Lily’s expression softened a little, “Today is your birthday, let’s ignore these unhappy people.”
She gave James a few glances, turned and walked towards the cake, with James following behind.
“Come on, Reggie, blow out the candles,” Remus said with a smile, and they were all ready to sing the birthday song.
“And a birthday hat,” Amelia said sternly, “but not now,” she added.
“And don’t forget to make a wish!” Marlene and Mary said in unison.
“Of course I remember…” Reggie chuckled and closed her eyes.
His birthday wish? Very common and common – he wanted three more wishes.
If you are a little more greedy, ten or eight is not impossible.
He is really a greedy man.
Then, he blew out the candle.
Cheers exploded in her ears, and the Marauder’s birthday song became high, accompanied by the loud laughter of unknowing girls.
At this moment, Regis felt his body tremble, the whole world was steaming up, and joy flowed around everyone,
“It would be great if there was a camera to record this moment.” Such a harmonious scene between Gryffindor and Slytherin is rare, and Regis thought with regret at this moment.
“What did you wish? Regis?” Lily asked.
He opened his eyes just in time to meet her emerald green eyes, and he almost blurted out.
“Yes–”
“Shh.” Lily smiled suddenly. “Don’t say it, there’s a saying in the Muggle world that a wish won’t come true if you say it. Happy birthday, Reggie.”
“Happy birthday!” James yelled, followed by Peter.
He shook his head to keep their voices from breaking his eardrums.
And then there’s happy birthday in various tones and versions, from the Muggle world and maybe the wizarding world, and even, he bet, their own version.
“Thank you,” he said in a voice no one could hear, and then he saw Lily wink at him.
After the carnival, it was a mess. Everyone waved their wands to clean up the Room of Requirement. James, who was so drunk, was cleaned up by Lily with “water like a spring” and regained his sobriety.
The birthday gifts that Reggie received could be piled up by the head of his bed, and he planned to go back to the bedroom and then unwrap them.
Everyone returned to the dormitory one after another to sleep, and the curfew was about to be imposed.
No one wants to see a massive lateness penalty for Gryffindor or Slytherin tomorrow when the semester is about to end.
“Rigi.” Back in the lounge, an unexpected figure appeared in front of Rigi – Greengrass.
He turned around and asked, “What’s wrong?”
The other party is obviously waiting for her, but she is only in a tutoring relationship with herself, and the exam is over…
Greengrass shook the box in his hand and raised his eyebrows smugly.
“Your birthday present.”
“If there’s a bug in there, I might throw a curse on you,” Reggie threatened with a playful wave of his wand.
“You need to trust me, Reggie.” Greengrass shook his head and opened the small box. A mirror lay inside, no different from an ordinary mirror.
“Wow, what a special gift,” said Regis softly.
“Do you think this is just an ordinary mirror?” Greengrass’s face had an expression of obvious mischief success.
“Don’t tell me this is the queen’s mirror.”
“Of course not.” Greengrass blinked happily,
“This is a double-sided mirror! A great invention in the magic world!”
“Is this a new invention?” Ridge’s focus was obviously different from what she imagined.
“Hey, don’t play stupid.” The witch gave him a look of indifference.
“Okay, but I really don’t know, what’s the use?”
“I also have a double-sided mirror like this, no, two sides. If you need to talk to me, say my name to it; you’ll be in my mirror, and I’ll be able to talk to you in your mirror. You talk. We don’t need to communicate during the holidays, of course, my mother actually intercepts my letters,” Greenglass said.
Regis gently took out the mirror in the box~www.readmtl.com~ It is really very ordinary.
Of course he knew about the double-sided mirror. He touched the surface of the mirror and looked at it curiously.
“Sounds great!”
“Want to try it now?” Greengrass didn’t know where to get an identical mirror.
“Rigi?” The witch called out his name tentatively.
She saw dark grey eyes, then his Master’s face, and Reggie gave her a sneer, and Marianne, not to be outdone, did one.
“Okay.” Reggie’s expression changed, and he said happily, the smile on his face was quite relaxed, “I think it’s time for us to go to bed, or do you want to go on a night tour?”
“No,” Greengrass refused.
Reggie shook his pocket to indicate, “Then—goodbye? I have to go back and open the presents!”
“Okay, but my present must be the best! Good night Regis.” The witch waved her hand dashingly and returned to the bedroom.
