Lily's Thanks

In Orion's office in Little Nurmengard, Sirius and Lupin were trying to persuade Orion.

Sirius Black said, "We've heard about Lily's resurrection, so can James be resurrected too?"

Lupin chimed in, "Yeah, Oren, why don't you go all the way and revive James?"

Oren rolled his eyes and said, "Do you guys think resurrection is as cheap as cabbage? It's expensive! I only have enough to resurrect one more person."

"That's great! So can we resurrect James?" Sirius Black pleaded pitifully.

"That's impossible. Grindelwald has already reserved his spot. You can try to get him to give it to you, but most likely he'll send you along to accompany James Potter."

"We'll provide the materials," Sirius Black and Lupin the Poor Guy said firmly, looking at Oren.

"That's impossible. Those materials are not something you can buy with Galleon. These materials are Snape's treasures, and they were also collected by Grindelwald when Cleansweep Europe. With the two of you, you would have a hard time even Cleansweep Scotland."

Seeing that the two were still somewhat unwilling to give up, Oren added, "Besides, James Potter's remains have already been destroyed by Snape, so the only way to resurrect him is to find materials from Harry."

"Leaving aside the resurrected conjugate father and son, the experiments alone would require many sets of materials."

"I understand," Sirius Black said regretfully, "But I won't be satisfied without giving that Snivellus beating."

Lupin nodded and said, "Count me in."

The two slunk away. Oren rolled his eyes, thinking: When Snape becomes Cao Cao, your ideas will be even more obstructed.

Oren immediately wrote a calligraphy piece, incorporating the spirit of the Jian'an era and the style of Cao Cao, as an early Christmas gift for Snape.

Harry burst through the door, eagerly asking, "Oren, can you resurrect my father?"

Oren rubbed his eyes and exclaimed, "Is Lockhart back in the game?"

Hermione, who came in with them, whispered a reminder, "Look closely, that's Professor Snape."

Snape was dressed like Lockhart, and although he had a stern face, the way he carried his luggage really made him look like a kind father.

"Oh, your father..." Oren glared at Snape. You took his father to be tempered, why don't you say something!

Snape (expressionless)

"We're too late, James's remains have already rotted away," Oren said, feigning anguish.

"What?! That can't be! My parents are definitely buried together!"

"The coffin lid is leaking. As the old saying goes, it'll dry for a thousand years and wet for a thousand years, but if it's neither dry nor wet, it'll only last for half a year."

"Ah..." Harry was a little dazed and almost fell to the ground.

Snape, with a stern face but a gentle tone, said, "Go back to your dorm and rest for a while."

Oren, Hermione, and Ron all scratched the goosebumps on their arms.

After seeing the three children off, Snape said, "Lily wants to thank you in person."

"Go ahead, I want to see if the resurrected people are mentally sound."

The two arrived at Professor McGonagall's office, where Harry's mother said, "Oren, Orion, thank you so much! I never expected to see Harry again; he's grown so much in the blink of an eye."

As she was about to drop the little pearl, Professor McGonagall patted her back reassuringly.

Snape gave Oren a meaningful look, gesturing for him to praise him.

Oren held up four fingers, Snape held up two fingers, and in the end they agreed on three fingers.

After quickly finalizing the deal, Oren rambled on for a few moments and then started praising Snape.

"I can tell Professor Snape really likes Harry." (Spare the rod and spoil the child)

"The educational environment was also very relaxed, giving Harry a lot of freedom" (the main point being that as long as he didn't die, that was fine).

Professor McGonagall: To expose it or not to expose it? That is the question.

After being thoroughly fooled, Lily's gaze towards Snape softened considerably.

As the two walked out of the office, Oren asked, "How did you manage to keep Harry from exposing you?"

"Lily would be heartbroken if she knew about his past."

"I understand, Professor. Harry, you don't want Lily to be sad, do you?"

Snape nodded. "More or less."

Oren...

Back in the Gryffindor Tower, Harry was holding a pep talk with the two boys.

Harry said, "You can all see that Snape is definitely not acting right. Oh, Oren, you're back. Don't you also think Snape is acting strange?"

"He's really acting strangely. Go ask any professor; everyone knows Snape's intentions. That old Batman has designs on your mother."

"No, no, I can't let him succeed!" Harry paced anxiously back and forth.

The next morning, Oren and Hermione were in the tower, looking into the courtyard through a telescope.

Inside the courtyard, Harry and Ron, pulling Lily in her disguise, confronted Snape and Sirius Black Lupin.

The tense atmosphere didn't last long before a fight broke out, with Snape holding his own against two opponents.

Lily wanted to intervene and break up the fight, but the two little ones pulled her away.

"Brilliant! Don't you think it would be more interesting if I persuaded Sirius Black to also pursue Lily?"

Hermione shoved Oren and said, "Don't you dare stir things up!"

In the end, it was Professor McGonagall who stopped the fight, and Snape had a slight advantage and won.

"They're done fighting, I need to go and give Snape some advice."

Hermione...

Snape's office.

"I completely understand the professor's feelings. You've already lost to James once, you don't want to lose to James's brat a second time, do you?"

Snape nodded, his face dark.

"Professor, if you just explain the cause and effect, these Muggle psychologists will definitely be able to give reasonable advice."

Muggle psychologist: I was having coffee and talking to patients in my clinic when I was suddenly kidnapped!

Will rubbed his knee and thought, "It's really a case of those above talking while those below are running themselves ragged."

Snape recounted those old, trivial matters, Oren tossed him a handful of sunflower seed shells, saying, "So, when James and the others bullied you, Lily stood up for you, you called him Mudblood?"

"Did all the hormones from puberty flood your brain after you were turned upside down?"

Snape didn't argue, he just nodded with a dark expression.

"If you hadn't mentioned Mudblood, what are the chances that Harry Potter would have become Harry Snape?"

Snape held up five fingers, then pulled them back, and said, "Ninety percent certain."

The group of Muggle who had been kidnapped also started offering suggestions. Snape nodded, indicating that he had learned something, and then rewarded each of them with a single "Obliviate.

Having dealt with Snape, Oren hummed a little tune as he returned to the common room.

Harry pulled me away as soon as I entered.

That's the situation at the time, what do you think I should do?

Oren...

"I have three strategies: the worst, the best, and the middle. The worst strategy is for you to just start and let things take their course. The middle strategy is for you to learn from Grindelwald Cleansweep Europe to collect materials. You can gather them in a hundred or two hundred years, but by then Harry Snape might already be grown up."

"The best course of action is for you to persuade Sirius Black to pursue Lily; this is a strategy of using one tiger to devour another!"

The three little ones...
