Harry Potter’s Book of Sin

"You should understand that this is not a question that first-year students should be exposed to," Snape frowned and paused, but continued, "Since you can ask this question, it must be the principle of your reaction to maniac It should be very clear. You can interrupt the mana-absent reaction at the exact time and add the subsequent ingredients only by reverse stirring, and you do not need to barely maintain the magical form of the original liquid. The next question."

In the following, Maca asked several questions he encountered one by one.But he keenly discovered that Snape did not show the kind of impatience he imagined, but actually answered all the questions.

"...Are there any questions to ask? Then go out."

After Maca finished asking the question, Snape returned to his original impatience and waved Maca out of his office.

"Huh—" Standing at the corner of the corridor outside the office, Maca couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.

To be honest, he really didn't want to be too close to Snape.For him, facing an invisible person is more terrifying than anything else.

Speaking of it, in fact, the person he dared not approach the most was undoubtedly Dumbledore.

I recalled a little bit of what I had said and done in Snape's office just now, and after finding that there was nothing wrong with it, Maca quickly left.

After solving a few difficulties that will inevitably be encountered in actual operations, the next thing is much easier.He only needs to make up for the missing tools, and find a quiet place where no one is left, and then he can start trying to prepare.

"Hagrid's hunting house? A good choice!" Maca muttered to herself, turning to the gate, "It just happens that there is no class this afternoon. It's okay to see Hagrid."

...

Today is a good weather, but the wind is a bit bigger than the previous few days.Looking up, there is a blue sky, which makes people feel more cheerful.The air outside the castle was exceptionally fresh, and it was the opposite of beauty compared to Snape's dim office.

Maca was breathing the fresh air outside—this is the blessing of nature that sustains human life, regardless of whether it is a wizard or a Muggle.

Hagrid’s hunting ground hut was built not far from the forbidden forest. It walked through the fields and could be reached soon.

"Hey, Hagrid! Good afternoon!" Maca saw Hagrid's tall figure from a distance.

"Oh, Maca! Yes, good afternoon!" Hagrid turned his head when he heard the words, and smiled happily after seeing Maca.

However, he quickly put away his smile, and then said with a serious face: "Yes, I am very happy that you can come to see me, and I also welcome you to come to my cabin as a guest. However, it should be close to class. Time is up, you shouldn't be here."

"Yes, to be precise, class is now in class," Maca shrugged, "but I have no class today."

"It turns out that it is," Hagrid nodded suddenly, "I should have thought of it. The last time I called Harry and the others over, I deliberately picked a time when they had no class."

"Come on, come in, come in, I'll pour you a cup of tea." As he said, he walked into the hut on Maca's shoulder, "Oh, the door is a bit small, you go in first."

"Wow! Wow!" Hagrid's black hound yelled at Maca, and the iron buckle collar on his neck was rattling.

"It's called Yaya. It's a bit timid, but it's close to people, and a good dog." Hagrid pulled Yaya firmly, and then motioned for Maca to sit down on the sofa.

When Hagrid went to make tea, Maca looked around the interior of the cottage.Apart from a fireplace, two sofas and a small round table, there is basically nothing here.Well, Hagrid has to stay inside, so there is really no way to put down too much furniture.

"Want some rock cakes? Harry and Ron seemed to like them.

"No, no, they are a bit hard. My teeth are not so good recently." Maca quickly declined, "You know, it's time to change teeth."

"Oh, yes, it's a pity." Hagrid nodded, "but if you want to get rid of your waste teeth quickly, rock cake is actually not a bad choice."

"If it is about to come down, I might come to your Hagrid again." Maca smiled bitterly.

Next, Maca chatted with Hagrid one after another for the whole afternoon.From all kinds of magical creatures, to Dumbledore, and then to his brother Aberforth, I learned a lot of messy information.

In general, under the guidance of Maca's ingenious topics, the two chatted a lot of topics that Hagrid was interested in, and they had a very happy conversation.

He didn't stand at the door until Maca was about to leave, seemingly to raise his request casually.

"Oh, yes, Hagrid," Maca said as if suddenly remembering something, "I wonder if I can come to you in my free time to do some potion preparation exercises? In school, Professor Snape Always staring at me with a gloomy face, I can't calm down and practice."

"Well, Severus, yes, he always looks like someone owes him money," Hagrid nodded with a smile, "Of course, you are welcome to come over anytime, I'm around here most of the time."

"Okay, thank you." After Maca thanked him, he closed the door and left.

Of course, it would be great if you could find the House of Request, but it was a pity that Maca had forgotten where it was.

"Let's go back and find it! It couldn't be better to find it."

As he pondered, he walked towards the castle.In a while, it's time for dinner.

...

Meal time at Hogwarts is always the busiest time of the day.At this time, everyone will discuss the gossip and thoughts of the whole day while dealing with the food on their respective plates.

Today, Maca finally is no longer in a hurry, because he is going to take a break.I have been soaking myself in the library recently, even if I don't feel tired mentally, my body is already tired.

"……is her?"

Maca inadvertently glanced at the long Slytherin table, and suddenly saw the mysterious girl he had met in the library before.

I saw that she was sitting on the edge of the long Slytherin table, eating pudding, and the robes of the hospital uniform that was too loose for her were dragged on the ground, but she didn't care.The classmates around were talking to each other, and it was very lively. She was alone outside of this cheerful atmosphere, and no one took care of her.

It stands to reason that she is sitting there alone, she should feel quite averse.But Maca found that she seemed to be in the whole environment, not so much low-key, as she didn't exist at all.

In a pleasant atmosphere, the dinner gradually came to an end.

Just as Maca looked at the back of the mysterious girl who had finished her meal and left silently, thinking secretly about her sacredness, he caught a glimpse of Malfoy walking to Gryffindor.

"Are you eating your last meal, Potter? When will you take the train back to Muggle?"

"You think that the professors didn't notice this, and you have your little friends to accompany you, and you have more courage." Harry said coldly.

Maca had already walked to the side at this moment. He looked at Crabbe and Gore. The tall man was really hard to be called "small".

The two of them seemed to be scrupulous about the teacher in the main guest seat, and did not dare to make a mistake, so they had somber faces and squeezed their fingers.

"I'm willing to compete with you alone at any time," Malfoy said. "If you have no objection, it will be a duel between wizards tonight! Only wands-no contact. What's the matter? I guess you may never listen. Did you talk about wizard duels?"

"Of course he has heard of it." Ron said, turning around suddenly."I am his assistant, who is your assistant?"

Malfoy looked at Crabbe and Gore, weighing them left and right.

"Crabbe," he said, "just at midnight, how about? We meet you in the prize showroom, where the door is never locked."

After Malfoy left, Harry and Ron couldn't help but glance at each other.

"What's the matter with wizard duels?" Harry asked. "What do you mean by being my assistant?"

"Oh, if you die, the assistant will continue." Ron said lightly, and finally started eating his cooled pie again.

He caught the look on Harry’s face, and hurriedly added, “But you know, people die only when they have a formal duel with a real wizard. You and Malfoy can only send a few sparks to each other at best— —You two know too little magic to really hurt each other. But I dare say he thought you would refuse."

"If I wave my wand and there is no response at all, what should I do?"

"Then throw away the wand and punch him in the nose." Ron shrugged, and the thief smiled and gave his advice.

"Sorry, excuse me," Hermione said suddenly across the long table.

"Can someone eat here for a while?" Ron said.

Hermione ignored him, but said to Harry, "I couldn't help but eavesdrop on what you and Malfoy said..."

"I knew you would be like this." Ron murmured.

"You must not wander around school at night, think about it, if you are caught, how many points will you lose to Gryffindor! And you will definitely be caught, you are really too selfish."

"It really has nothing to do with you." Harry said.

"Goodbye," Ron continued.

Hermione stomped her foot angrily as she watched them leaving.Suddenly, she found Maca who was sitting not far away.

"Hey, did you hear that too? You should stop them too."

Since talking with Maca in the herbal medicine class that day, Hermione also occasionally met with Maca in the library. She usually sits down and exchanges some learning problems with Maca.

After a long time, the two became acquainted.

"You can see that they are like that. It's useless to stop them." Maca walked over and spread his hands, expressing that he could not do anything about it. "Don't look at Harry, who is usually kind, but he is still very stubborn in his bones. What he believes, It is difficult for others to make him change."

Hermione pursed her lips and walked towards the door without a word.When she was leaving, she suddenly turned her head and gave Maca angrily.
