Harry Potter: I'm an Exemplary Student

Chapter 41: Chapter 041: Potions Class



When the door of the Hospital Wing was opened again, it also meant that Mikel finally fulfilled his previous wish and was officially discharged from the Hospital Wing.

It's just that his current state looks a bit bad, his steps are sloppy, and he keeps retching.

In addition, before today, Kyle had never thought that a person's face could be blue.

Even the castle's most avant-garde and fashionable portraits would not dare to paint their faces with such bold colors.

But Mikel did it.

Including his forehead, nose, and lips. His entire head is blue, even his hair and teeth.

From a distance, it looks like a large blue dandelion.

"Kyle..."

Mikel stretched out his hand and said in a very dry voice. "What are you laughing at? You should help me."

"It's nothing, I just thought of happy things." Kyle stepped forward to support Mikel and turned his head simultaneously, trying not to look at his face.

"I gave Hufflepuff twenty points yesterday."

"That's indeed worth being happy about." Mikel nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

Mikel really didn't want to talk now, and he didn't know what the nurse at the Hospital Wing had given him just now. It tasted so bad that he couldn't even talk about it. His throat was still burning and sore, and he felt extremely uncomfortable when he opened his mouth.

The two of them walked slowly toward the underground classroom.

It is worth mentioning that Mikel's blue head gradually returned to normal when they first walked to the Pendulum Clock Tower.

Although it has not changed back to its previous appearance, at least it is not so eye-catching, and the light in the castle is generally dark, so you can't find anything if you don't look carefully.

It seemed that Madam Pomfrey had no intention of embarrassing him in public.

The two walked all the way through the castle, but they were late as expected because Mikel walked too slowly when they arrived at the classroom below.

Snape had just finished counting the roster when he looked up and saw the two people standing at the door.

"You are late for the first class. Are all the freshmen this year so bad?" Snape said in a long voice. "Hufflepuff deducted ten points."

Mikel looked at Snape. His eyes suddenly widened, and he blurted out. "Huh? You are the one...hiss~~"

Fortunately, Kyle reacted quickly enough and stepped on him decisively, which prevented Mikel from finishing his sentence.

Otherwise... they might not be able to get out of this Potions classroom.

Taking this opportunity, Kyle quickly said. "Sorry, Professor Snape, we won't do it next time."

"Hmph, if there is a second time, it won't be as simple as deducting ten points." Snape glanced at them coldly. "Why are you still standing there stupidly? Go back to your seat quickly, and Hufflepuff will deduct another five points."

Afraid that Mikel would say something reckless again, Kyle quickly pulled him to sit on an empty table at the back of the classroom.

Snape withdrew his gaze and said in a sinister voice. "Potions is a profound and important subject. I don't expect you to truly understand The beauty of the slowly simmering cauldron emitting white smoke and releasing bursts of fragrance."

"I don't expect you to understand the magical transformation of the originally ordinary materials that gradually sublimate during the rapid fire cooking."

"Every Mistletoe Berry and piece of Bezoar in your hands will be condensed into various shapes and compositions in the crucible here. They are the most wonderful secrets in the magical world. "

Snape's voice gradually became calmer. "I can teach you how to increase your reputation, brew honor, and even prevent death - but there must be one thing, that is, you are not the kind of fools I often encounter."

Snape's words immediately silenced the whole class. The little Slytherin snakes raised their heads proudly and sat upright as if this could prove that they were not fools.

In contrast, the little badgers of Hufflepuff felt a lot guilty. They looked at me and I looked at you, and no one dared to look at Snape.

Especially Mikel, who almost buried his head under the table after he recovered.

However, even if this is useless, what is supposed to come will still come.

"Drake!" Snape suddenly said. "To make Boil-Cure Potion, do you need to put Horned Slugs or Porcupine Quills first?"

What potion?

Mikel raised his head blankly and said cautiously. "Put the Porcupine Quills first, Professor."

"Tsk, put the porcupine quills first..." Snape said in a sinister tone. "If you had read the book before the start of school, even if you only glanced at it, you would know that you need to put Snake Fang Powder in to make the Boil-Cure Potion!"

"How dare you be late when your basic skills are so poor? One point deducted from Hufflepuff. "

"Why don't you write this down!"

There was a sudden rustling of quills and parchment in the classroom.

"Open the book to the first page!" Snape returned to the podium and said solemnly. "Today we are learning to make a simple potion to treat boils."

"Although this potion is so simple that as long as your IQ is higher than the troll, you can definitely complete it. But I still want to remind you, you must be careful when doing this...if you don't want your body to be covered with boils. "

"The ingredients for brewing the potion are in the storage cabinet. Now, work in groups of two... Oh, that's right!"

At this moment, Snape suddenly seemed to think of something and came to Mikel again.

He glanced down at the table and said mockingly. "Although there is no need to wave the wand stupidly here, given your current dire situation and for the safety of other little wizards, I don't think it is necessary."

Snape took the cauldron on the table, and after a round of inspection, he said to Kyle. "You go to a group with Kanna, don't disturb Drake reading here."

In the crowd, Kanna looked up in confusion, looking at Kyle, who was getting closer and closer to her in disbelief.

What a mess. I was already on time, and Kyle was the last one to enter the classroom, and I still couldn't hide?

At this time, the other little wizards had also completed their teams, so there was no empty position for her, even if Kanna wanted to hide.

Or switch with others?

Kanna found her roommate sitting behind her, and just when she was about to ask to exchange seats with her, Snape's voice came from the podium again.

"What are you still doing, waiting for me to help you make potions?!"

Amid Snape's roar, the classroom suddenly became busy.

Looking at her roommate who set up the crucible and then ran to the storage cabinet, Kanna could only sigh faintly and turned around to grind the Snake Teeth on the table.

When Snape walked nearby, he casually placed a bag on Kanna's desk for some reason.

The bag contained exactly the materials needed to make Boil-Cure Potion, and there were three portions of each, so Kanna didn't need to go to the cupboard like everyone else.
