HP: At the beginning, I influenced Snape's childhood.

Previously, when Lin Mo transformed into a falcon, there should have been a temporary appearance of the falcon's instincts and bestial nature, but because Lin Mo and the falcon were so compatible, there was no such feeling.

Now, Lin Mo has transformed into his second Animagus form, a phenomenon that is truly astonishing throughout the magical world.

The snow wolf's bestial nature began to suppress its human nature. Compared to the falcon's affinity for Lin Mo, the snow wolf seemed to possess the proud spirit of a wolf king who refused to admit defeat or submit to anyone.

Deep, calm blue eyes suppressed the darkness hidden in his heart for many years. The wolf's bestial nature added a touch of ferocity to Lin Mo's already terrifying and dangerous aura.

"The first lesson I'll teach you upon entering the Shadow Court is a single sentence—never let anything, any emotion, or anything else disturb your inner peace. Always hold fast to your own heart..." The words still echoed in Lin Mo's ears, and Su Mingya's words reverberated in his mind.

Lin Mo's clear and calm nature masked the snow wolf's greedy and savage cunning. The wolf king bowed his head, and Lin Mo once again completely controlled his body.

The alternating sensations of tension and relaxation, along with the undetectable energy within the magic, caused Lin Mo to briefly lose consciousness. In the moment before losing consciousness, Lin Mo felt helpless, as he had successfully completed the strange practice of fainting once every academic year.

The air pressure in the cellar was frighteningly low. Snape, his face grim, stared at Lin Mo, who was lying on his sofa. His gaze never left Lin Mo. He asked Bai Ze, "This guest, who claims to be Mr. Lin's brother, I think you should explain your true identity."

"You know, strangers aren't allowed to enter Hogwarts. As a professor here, I need to ensure the safety of the young wizards and verify the truth of what you're saying." Snape really didn't want to keep asking questions, but he had no choice.

Bai Ze looked at Snape, his voice as cold as ever: "Dean, although I can feel Mo Ge's trust in you, I can't say everything just because of that. At least I have to wait until Mo Ge wakes up before I can make a decision."

Upon hearing Bai Ze's answer, Snape snorted and examined Lin Mo's body. Finding that Lin Mo's unconsciousness was merely due to excessive mental exertion, Snape went deep into the cellar, took out a bottle of potion from a row of shelves, and handed it to Bai Ze.

"Give it to him," Snape said coldly. He didn't want to get entangled with this person of unknown origin. Their current interaction was only because Lin Mo was already unconscious.

Bai Ze remained unmoved by Snape's cold and indifferent attitude. As the incarnation of a falcon, he naturally needed time to process human emotions, and he didn't believe there was anything wrong with Snape's behavior towards others.

Bai Ze helped Lin Mo sit up and fed him the potion. After laying Lin Mo back down on the sofa, Bai Ze placed the potion bottle on the table and said to Snape, "Headmaster, could Brother Mo and I stay here for the night?"

Snape looked at Bai Ze, somewhat puzzled, but nodded nonetheless: "You can rest on the sofa. Once he wakes up tomorrow morning, leave immediately. Don't stay in my cellar. I don't keep idle people here, nor am I responsible for cleaning up your messes."

Upon hearing Snape's agreement, Bai Ze said thank you. Although he knew that his brother Mo didn't mind, it wasn't appropriate for him to be a stranger in Snape's territory.

As a falcon, Bai Ze has a very clear sense of territory and knows that Snape has already given his Mo Ge a lot of face.

If he could, Bai Ze believed that his brother wouldn't want to put Snape in a difficult position, but he really had no other choice now.

He wasn't a Hogwarts student, so he couldn't enter Slytherin and therefore couldn't send Lin Mo back to his Slytherin dorm room, nor could he send him back to his Ravenclaw dorm room.

Bai Ze could transform back into his falcon form and return to the owl colony at Hogwarts, but he couldn't very well take his brother there to rest as well.

Over the years, even though Snape had regained his original vigilance and xenophobia, he still didn't realize that he had unknowingly lowered his standards when it came to Lin Mo.

Even when faced with this white-haired boy of unknown origin, Snape agreed to let him stay at his place for one night, all because of the brat who was still lying on his sofa.

Snape warned Bai Ze not to move around, then went back to his bedroom and locked the door.

Bai Ze conjured up a cushion and placed it under Lin Mo's head, while he himself sat on a small sofa next to him, closed his eyes, and began to rest.

The next morning, Lin Mo's biological clock woke him up on time. Looking around at the familiar surroundings, Lin Mo's somewhat muddled mind became clear about his current location—his dean's cellar.

Bai Ze, who was sitting on the sofa next to Lin Mo, also woke up and looked at Lin Mo with some concern, asking, "Brother Mo, how are you feeling? Is anything bothering you?"

Lin Mo comforted Bai Ze: "Yesterday was just a minor accident when I transformed into Animagus. It's nothing serious, and I'm fine now."

Bai Ze nodded and said, "That's good, I'll head back now."

"Okay, you can go back now," Lin Mo replied to Bai Ze, watching Bai Ze leave from the cellar.

It was still dark outside when Lin Mo went outside to start his morning exercise. He had deliberately shortened his exercise time today. He ate breakfast in the kitchen where his pet elf lived, and then used a heat-preserving spell to bring back another breakfast to the cellar.

Upon entering the cellar, Lin Mo saw Snape, who had just finished washing up and getting ready: "Good morning, sir."

Upon seeing Lin Mo, Snape raised an eyebrow and said, "Mr. Lin, would you like to explain what happened last night?"

Lin Mo walked to the table, placed the breakfast on it, and said to Snape with a smile, "I'll explain to you later, sir. Please have your breakfast first."

Without answering Lin Mo, Snape walked to the table and sat down, starting to eat his breakfast as he had done the last time.

Snape ate less breakfast than last time, and quickly finished his meal, leaving no food on his plate. He elegantly wiped his mouth and cleaned up his dishes.

"Mr. Lin, can you explain now what stupid things you did last night?" Snape leaned back in his chair, arms crossed, and looked at Lin Mo.

"Sir, I was practicing Animagus last night," Lin Mo said truthfully.

"Mr. Lin, do you even know how dangerous the Animagus are? How much confidence did you have to dare to secretly perform this Transfiguration on your own?" Although Snape knew what Lin Mo had done, he was still somewhat annoyed to hear Lin Mo admit to doing this stupid thing.

"Animagus need to be registered with the Ministry of Magic. Mr. Lin is sneaking around trying to shapeshift. Does he want to enter Azkaban before he's even an adult?" Snape's voice was filled with anger.
