Chapter 48 Snape: Twenty Points for Hufflepuff!

Many students did not do the Defense Against the Dark Arts homework, of course they all said they didn't bring it!

But for Snape, if you didn't bring it, you didn't do it, and you will be mercilessly deducted points!

Before the holiday, he specifically told Slytherin students to do the Defense Against the Dark Arts homework... With this back and forth, who can stop Slytherin from winning the house cup this year?

Humph!

Snape collected the homework with satisfaction, flipped through it a little, and found that Scamander had actually handed it in, which was quite unexpected.

Could it be that he used the Copying Spell to temporarily copy a copy?

Snape glanced and found that the handwriting seemed to be Scamander's... What a pity!

"Today, we are going to prepare a potion called Forget Sorrow Water, which can make people forget emotions such as sadness."

Snape looked up at the whole class, his eyes were cold and empty, as if he had no emotion at all.

"Be careful, if you are careless when adding the ingredients, the potion you brew will make the person who takes it excited, and may even laugh uncontrollably... So you need to strictly follow my steps."

"The ingredients and preparation methods are on the blackboard." Snape waved his wand and said, "Two people in a group, you have one and a half hours... Let's get started."

Rolf and Shirley formed a group and began to process the materials.

Shirley was obviously weak in potion brewing, but Rolf had a lot of materials, and she practiced with him during the summer vacation.

When a potion has been practiced more than ten times, it has been learned even if it is no longer good. Diligence can make up for shortcomings, and it doesn't matter where it is placed.

However, this is a bit difficult for ordinary students. Brewing potions requires a lot of materials, which are expensive... For them, the only opportunity to practice is in class.

Therefore, potion learning is also a gold dig!

As for Rolf... After washing Snape's hair last semester, he obtained his potion talent for a year, and now it is a historical level talent.

He can brew this level of potion with just one look.

Of course, he himself had also brewed the Forget Sadness Water several times, so he was familiar with it and could succeed with his eyes closed.

Rolf and Shirley worked together in an orderly manner, and there was no mistake in every step... very stable!

Snape dragged his long black cloak around the classroom, watching the students deal with the pitcher plants. Almost all the young wizards had been criticized.

He wandered around and stared at Rolf and Shirley, but after watching for a long time, he couldn't find any mistakes, so he had to turn around and stare at Neville and Hannah.

These two were the stupid duo in Snape's mind, and they were the students who brought him the most fun except for the useless duo of Potter and Weiss.

Whenever the two of them were together, they could always do stupid and clumsy operations.

Sure enough, the crucible was spewing purple sparks, Neville was busy sweating, and Hannah was poking the flames under the crucible with a wand to make the flames bigger.

It was so stupid... Snape was reluctant to break up the pair.

Rove sat on a stool, stirring the emerald green liquid with skill, then added the juice of the devil nettle, and then stirred it counterclockwise three times.

Then add a kelp mane... Boil for two minutes and it's done.

Shirley was holding a pestle and grinding the devil nettle carefully, her ponytail shaking gently.

Rove looked at the busy girl, and suddenly he had an idea. After quickly writing a few steps in the potion book, he excitedly said: "Shirley, lend you a hair."

"Ah?" The girl raised her head with a surprised look.

"I suddenly have a bold idea." Rove raised the textbook, circled the steps he wrote with a feather pen, and explained:

Download the book

"Use the wizard's hair instead of the kelp mane."

"But..." Shirley frowned.

"I know you'll talk about the efficacy of the medicine. We can use the scales of a sea monster instead. It should be effective... Let's try it?"

Shirley looked confused. She didn't understand at all, but... The girl didn't hesitate too much. She pulled out a thin red hair from her head and handed it to the boy.

Rolf put the red hair into the crucible and asked Shirley to continue stirring the potion. He walked to the storage cabinet to look for the scales of the sea monster.

After a while, the boy threw the scales into the crucible, and the potion instantly sprayed a rose-red steam... The color was extremely gorgeous.

This scene attracted the attention of many people.

Snape strode over. He looked at the crucible, and the surprise in his eyes flashed. When he looked up again, his eyes were empty.

"Scamander, what is this?"

"Forget the Sorrow Water, sir." Rolf said calmly.

"What color should the water of oblivion be?!"

"Silver-white steam."

"Then what did you make?!"

"Professor, I just made some changes and added a strand of Miss Swinton's hair... The effect may not be what you want." Rolf explained:

"This bottle of water of oblivion is probably only effective for Miss Swinton, but the effect will last much longer than ordinary potions. The specific time will be known after taking it."

"Who taught you to do this?" Snape frowned his sallow and thin face and stared at Rolf: "You changed the steps I gave you without authorization?!"

Shirley wanted to stand up and said that she changed it. Rolf gave the girl a carefree look and smiled:

"A flash of inspiration, professor, if you don't like it, just deduct points."

Snape's eyes were sharp, staring at Rolf, as if he was doubting and judging. After a long time, he stared at the pot of potion again.

Many students looked at Scamander. He did not brew the potion according to Professor Snape's steps. This was not a wise choice!

Hufflepuff must be deducted at least twenty points!

Snape looked at the crucible blankly, recalling that summer many years ago for no reason:

In Professor Slughorn's Potions class, he and Lily sat together to prepare the Water of Forgetfulness.

The young Snape had a sudden idea. He picked up a red hair from the bright and white-toothed girl's robe and put it in the crucible...

Lily's clear voice of 'Severus' suddenly echoed in his ears.

Some memories that had been locked away in his heart for a long time and were no longer dared to be recalled suddenly came to mind, and Snape's eyes suddenly felt lonely and full of memories.

His eyes were no longer as stagnant as ancient wells, but became a little more lively. He murmured to himself: "The effect of the medicine can be extended for about four hours..."

Just when the little wizards thought Snape was going to deduct points, after a long silence, he suddenly said in a hoarse voice:

"Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw...twenty points."

Everyone was shocked!

Luofu raised his eyebrows in surprise, then he scooped up the Wangbei water from the cup, handed it to Shirley, and said with a bright smile:

"Taste it?"

The girl with the ponytail said softly, then reached out to take the potion and drank it in one gulp in front of everyone. She suddenly smiled and narrowed her eyes and said:

“It tastes great!”
