Save the Bachelor of Heaven

Xiang Nan helped Lily carry her suitcases onto the train.

The two large suitcases were as light as nothing to him.

Lily carried the birdcage with the owl in it.

The two of them walked through two carriages and came to an empty carriage in the back half.

Xiang Nan put their suitcases on the luggage rack and helped Lily put the birdcage on it. Then he lifted the window of the carriage so that Lily could say goodbye to her family again.

"I will write to you. Don't worry about me~" Lily leaned out of the window and said.

Robin, Mary, and Penny all nodded.

Irene also looked at her son, with reluctance in her eyes.

"Mom, remind Dad to drink less alcohol. It's not good for your health." Xiang Nan didn't want to say goodbye in a cheesy way. He hesitated for a moment and finally spoke.

Tobias Snape and Irene Prince died very early, probably before the age of 60. Because in "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince", Snape lived alone in Spinner's End.

Xiang Nan reasonably guessed that Tobias died of alcoholism, perhaps because of an accident caused by excessive drinking.

Although Irene Prince suffered domestic violence repeatedly, she loved her husband deeply in her heart. She was depressed because of his death, so she followed him soon after.

Irene nodded. She didn't want her husband to indulge in alcohol, but she couldn't help him cheer up.

After all, even if you open a small grocery store, you need a start-up capital of four or five thousand pounds. If you don't use magic, it is difficult to earn so much money through legal means.

If you use magic, it will be easy to be tracked by the Ministry of Magic's Office for the Prohibition of Abuse of Magic. At that time, not only will the illegal income be confiscated, but she may also be imprisoned in Azkaban.

I know that everyone has this hatred, and poor couples are sad about everything.

Xiang Nan did not give the gold galleons in the purse to his mother. After all, he is still a child now. Taking out so much money at once, Irene is definitely more frightened than surprised.

Xiang Nan had no way to explain the origin of the money, so he was going to find another way.

...

Soon, the time came to eleven o'clock.

The station staff rang the alarm bell to remind all students to get on the train immediately.

The train issued a loud whistle, spewed out thick smoke, and then slowly started.

"Dad, Mom, sister, goodbye, I will miss you!" Lily leaned out and waved to her family.

"Mom, goodbye." Xiang Nan also waved.

The train was getting faster and faster, and soon turned the corner and could no longer see her family.

Lily sighed and sat back in her seat, her eyes a little wet.

This was the first time she went on a long journey alone, away from her family, and they would not see each other again for at least half a year. Xiang Nan understood her feelings.

"Lily, have you named your owl?" Xiang Nan asked with a smile, trying to start a topic to distract her attention.

"Yes." Lily was really excited when she heard it. "I named it 'Snowball'. How about it? Does it sound nice?"

"It sounds nice." Xiang Nan nodded with a smile. "Is it named after the cute dog of Tintin in the famous comic book "The Adventures of Tintin" by Belgian writer Hergé?"

"Yes, how did you know?" Lily asked in surprise.

"The Adventures of Tintin" is one of her favorite comics. The protagonist Tintin's dog Snowball is both smart and loyal. He is Tintin's good partner and has saved Tintin from danger several times.

Therefore, after she bought this white snowy owl, she also named it "Snowball", hoping that it can become her loyal and good partner.

"I've read that comic book, too." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "It's so cute. I'll buy one for myself sooner or later."

...

Just then, the compartment door opened and two children walked in, "Can we sit here? The other compartments are full."

"Of course, please sit down." Xiang Nan was stunned, then nodded, "My name is Severus Snape, and this is Lily Evans."

"James Potter." A round-faced boy said with a smile, "This is my new friend, Sirius Black."

"Hello." A handsome boy with curly black hair waved and greeted coolly.

"Hello, nice to meet you." Xiang Nan nodded and smiled.

In fact, he recognized the two as James Potter and Sirius Black at first sight, and they were sworn enemies of Severus Snape.

But Xiang Nan did not reject them. First, it is better to resolve a feud than to create one. If it is not necessary, there is no need to make enemies with each other; second, James Potter and Sirius Black are not bad people by nature. If they do not become rivals in the future, it is also good to be friends.

Third, James and Sirius are both powerful wizards. They became Animagus by self-study in the fifth grade, and they also worked together to make a BUG-level live point map... In the future, he is very likely to fight Voldemort, so it is good to have more masters around to help.

"Severus, how long does the train take?" Lily asked curiously, looking at the scenery outside the window.

"It will take about seven hours. Hogwarts is located in the Scottish Highlands. When we arrive, it should be dark." Xiang Nan explained.

"I don't know if there is a dining car on this train. I am a little hungry." Lily said again, "I was too worried when I got up early, and I didn't eat well."

"Don't worry, there will be a salesperson to sell food later." Xiang Nan explained.

"That's good." Lily nodded.

…

As they were talking, a smiling woman with dimples pushed open the compartment door and asked, "Dear, do you want to buy any food on the cart?"

"I want chocolate frogs, pumpkin pies, pot cakes, licorice wands, Bibi Multi-Flavor Beans, and Super Bubble Gum..." James Potter said excitedly.

"I want one of each, too." Sirius Black said, not to be outdone.

"Well... I want a chocolate frog and a pot cake." Lily looked at the food on the cart and carefully selected it, "Severus, what do you want to eat?"

"I want a pumpkin pie." Although Xiang Nan didn't need to eat anything, he still decided to buy a pumpkin pie, otherwise he would be misunderstood as being too poor.

"I'll treat you." Lily bought chocolate frogs, pot cakes, and pumpkin pies and handed them to Xiang Nan.

Xiang Nan had already taken out the gold galleons, but he took them back when he saw this. He didn't need to be too polite with just a pumpkin pie, which would make him look shabby.

They started eating immediately, and soon they had almost finished eating, and then they started eating desserts for entertainment.

"Severus, is this a real frog?" she asked curiously.

"Tsk~" Potter and Sirius both laughed softly.

Lily's face froze immediately.

"No, it's a chocolate frog, but it has been cast with a jumping spell, so it will jump after it is opened. You must catch it in time, otherwise it will escape." Xiang Nan explained.

As he was talking, Lily had already opened the chocolate frog, and the chocolate frog inside really jumped up, and it was about to jump out of the car window.

Xiang Nan waved his hand and caught it in mid-air, and then handed it to Lily.
