Chapter 2475

What Snape really wants to see here is the mysterious Lord of the corpse. As for Mr. John Stewart, who was hiding in the room and didn't even show his face, he was just a small character who casually grabbed a question when he couldn't see the Lord immediately.

For example, it's like just missing a subway, dragging a passer-by on the platform and asking the other party about the scenic spots of the destination - the only connection between the two sides may be that the other party happened to have been to that place before.

So, one thing John didn't guess wrong was that Snape really didn't have much interest in him. After asking two questions and proving some inferences in his mind from the side by John's answer, Snape stopped talking nonsense and turned around and left.

……

The weather outside Buckingham Palace is still the same as usual. The huge icicle directly above the overcast clouds led the light of the sun from the top, and turned into the colorful afterglow of the day through countless refraction and attenuation.

Snape is here for the first time. Compared with the shock he felt when he was near the city of London and looked up at this amazing giant icicle from the outside, his observation in the ice city is another feeling.

Standing on the huge square outside the main gate, he held his chest and chin slightly, and looked into the distance expressionless along the huge gap on the ice wall. He seemed to be thinking about something, and he didn't seem to think about anything. He was just distracted.

I don't know how long later, he suddenly seemed to notice something. Finally, he turned and looked at the ice cave exit on the other side of the square.

"Mr. Severus Snape, isn't it? Hello." a figure came out from there and walked slowly to this side. "Welcome to icicle city. I hope my companions haven't offended you by doing anything impolite to you."

It was a woman - of course, if the zombies did retain their gender, then at least the zombie coming towards Snape must be a woman in terms of posture.

Because in Snape's view, the appearance of this corpse is much closer to human beings than other corpses he has seen so far. Even if it weren't for his gloomy and dead skin, he might really treat each other as a woman.

After looking at each other for a moment, Snape frowned:

"Who are you?"

"Do you want to ask my name?" perhaps feeling Snape's resistance to his constant approach, the other party finally stopped and stood about thirty feet away from Snape, "The host gave me and my brother a common name called 'phagocytosis', but our family doesn't really need a name. If you are willing to call me' phagocytosis', it's naturally best - my brother and I thank the host for giving me a name and like it very much. But if you feel inconvenient, you can call me whatever you want."

The other side spoke in detail and showed great politeness and consideration. Through the gradual learning and adaptation since these days, the living corpse girl, one of the Gemini, has become more and more like a truly complete and even meaningful intelligent life.

Just as Snape felt when he first looked at each other, standing there now seems to be a human woman with outstanding temperament but introverted edge.

Is this a corpse?

What happened here during the period when the whole old England was almost isolated from the outside world and others could not see?

Even Snape, who has probably learned something from bill, Lupin, Kingsley and Granger, can't help but be surprised by the information revealed in the words and deeds of the female corpse in front of him - he has seen high-grade corpses outside the city before, but all of them are extremely dangerous Interest, but it is far from the impact brought to him by the temperament and self-restraint that only human beings should have shown in front of the living corpse girl.

Of course, no matter how surprised and stunned he was, Snape's brain sealing skills would not show any difference on the surface. After a short pause, he heard him say again:

"That's just right. Anyway, I'm not interested in what your name is. What I want to ask is, what's your position among your people - it helps me judge whether you have the value of allowing me to spend my time on you."

To be honest, if it is in human society - whether Muggle society or magic world - Snape's words are very much like provocation. Even if the other party happens to be a grumpy guy, it may be possible to fight immediately.

But fortunately, standing in front of Snape at the moment was a corpse.

Even though the corpse girl has already acquired the emotions that only humans have, the nature of the high-order corpse after her will wakes up still makes her more inclined to treat people and things rationally. This mode of thinking makes her behavior style very similar to Snape.

On the other hand, Snape's shrewdness was clearly keenly aware of this in a few words, which made him so explicit.

So the next moment, I saw the corpse girl nodding calmly, without losing politeness:

"Don't worry too much, sir. In fact, every individual of our family is the most loyal follower of our master. Even though we all have our own temperament and habits, our general direction of action is the same. It's no different for us to ask questions and make demands with any of our people, so we can just regard us as a whole ... of course, only to high-ranking people like me who can understand your will expression. "

After saying this, the girl gave a little meal, but then suddenly turned the topic back to the question she talked to at the beginning, saying:

"But before listening to your question, I actually want to ask you the question just now - I don't know if my companions have done anything impolite to you, so that you stand alone in this cold square? If so, please allow me to express my most sincere apology to you on behalf of my family."

It was not until this moment that Snape realized that the courtesy shown by the corpse girl did not seem to be pure surface politeness. People are really polite!
