Harry Potter’s Book of Sin

"What's wrong, Maca?"

When the boy was staring at the black diary in Ginny's cauldron, the girl beside him took his hand and asked without hesitation.

"Nothing." Maca shook her head slightly, her tone still seemed to be gentle and peaceful, but her eyes were unusually cold.

"This time going out, a lot has changed."

"Really. Luna?" Maca turned her head, showing a slight smile, "Perhaps! But I think this is also good."

Luna tilted her head and looked at him, her gaze was slightly dazed, she couldn't see what she was thinking.

After a while, she said, "Yes, it's pretty good..."

Obviously, Maca caught up with the start of school.Although no one knows where he was taken by Rowena and what he did, at least he came back safe and sound.

However, some inexplicable changes seemed to have occurred in him.

"Let's go, go home first." Maca said.

...

On the day of school, Maca stayed with Luna the whole time, and never left almost once.Even at the freshman welcome dinner, Maca sat directly at Ravenclaw's long table.

Surprisingly, the students of Ravenclaw College hardly objected.This is absolutely rare in Kitty Hawks who have a very high standard of identification with "wisdom and erudition."

This may be because many students have already seen the notice posted on the Hogwarts bulletin board.

The content of the bulletin is very simple, but it conveys good news to all teachers and students in the school-the "Xianyin Potion" invented by Maca has passed the inspection and evaluation of the International Wizarding Federation, and it is obtained in Maca. At the same time as the official certification of the potion, it is equivalent to indirect recognition of his "pharmacist" status.

As Snape said in class, potions can indeed "improve prestige and brew glory."This is the most notable testimony to Maca, who has just been promoted to the second grade this year.

During the sorting ceremony, Luna was naturally assigned to Ravenclaw. Maca smiled and gave her blessings, and reminded her again and again what she needs to pay attention to in her future study and life.

The dinner was lively and as warm as ever, bringing warmth to the little wizards like a big family.

Dumbledore in the main guest seat seemed to glance at Maca inadvertently, but he heard Professor Flitwick laugh again soon.

After a while, Professor McGonagall came in through the side door, and she walked up to Dumbledore and said something softly.

Maca looked at Gryffindor, and Harry and Ron weren't on the long table.The other cubs whispered to each other and talked a lot.

In it, Hermione was obviously fidgeting.When Maca looked over, she just turned her head and looked towards Maca too.

"What's the matter with him...?" Hermione stared blankly at Maca, who had moved her gaze elsewhere, but her heart was filled with doubts.

Hermione's heart has always been very sensitive, she always noticed some details that other people would not notice.For example, the Maca at this time didn't seem to have changed too much, but the indifferent eyes made Her very uncomfortable.

"Could it be that Voldemort's affairs have really affected him so much? Or is it that Maca actually got hurt when he was saving me?"

Reminiscent of the events at the end of last semester and Maca's expression at the time, Hermione's guess was naturally biased.

"...And, who is that girl?"

She looked at Luna, who was carefully taken care of by Maca, and was a little unhappy for some reason.

Early the next morning, Maca who was eating breakfast was noisy by a roaring letter from Gryffindor.It was sent to Ron by Mrs. Weasley.

"...Stolen the car! How dare you drive to Hogwarts,

A huge noise erupted from the red roaring letter and filled the entire hall, a hundred times louder than usual.

The sound shook the plates and spoons on the table, and the echo of the four stone walls was deafening.The entire auditorium turned around to see who had received the yelling letter. Ron slumped in his chair, only seeing a flushed forehead.

Maca frowned, but did not move.

If it does, he might walk over and help Ron solve the roaring letter-it's not difficult for him.

But now, he is sitting at the table, not moving.

The first class was herbal medicine, and Hufflepuff still took this class with the Gryffindors.When Maca walked to the greenhouse, he saw the beating willow from a distance-it was now bandaged to prevent certain branches from breaking completely.

This is a masterpiece of Harry and Ron. They drove the enchanted flying car at the beginning of school and bumped it all the way.

Although they just couldn't get to the Hogwarts station platform—someone seemed to be blocking the entrance to the wall there.But even so, they still can't hide their recklessness.

At least, Sprout spent a morning for this, healed the poor beating willow, and even hurriedly stuffed some bread for breakfast.

When Maca came near the greenhouse, he saw other students standing outside, waiting for Professor Sprout.

After a while, Harry, Ron, and Hermione also came.As soon as they arrived, they saw Professor Sprout walking from the lawn.

There are a lot of bandages on her arms, which don't look very good.Moreover, she has always treated people kindly and kindly, but today she has a slightly sullen look on her face.

And Professor Sprout was following Guidro Lockhart.

The two are in stark contrast: Professor Sprout has a squat figure, a patched hat is buttoned on his wavy hair, and his clothes are always stained with dirt; but Jidd Rolohart was spotless from head to toe, with a flowing turquoise robe and a turquoise hat with gold rims on the top of her shiny blonde hair.

"Oh, hello!" Lockhart yelled to the students with a spring breeze, "I just showed Professor Sprout how to treat a beating Liu! But I don’t want you to think I’m better in herbal medicine. She's good! I just happened to have seen a few of these strange plants during my trip..."

"Today to the third greenhouse." Professor Sprout was unhappy and snatched the topic.

Maca is already a frequent visitor to the third greenhouse-he has been here many times, and even has a small area of ​​his own inside.

Here, the smell of damp soil and fertilizer are familiar, and there is also a strong floral fragrance.Those flowers were as big as umbrellas, hung from the ceiling and looked good.

Maca was about to go inside, but he saw Guidro Lockhart calling him.

"Oh! Maca, you are Maca—" Lockhart grabbed his shoulder and said loudly, "Professor Sprout, and this one, Maca! Maca McLean! I think too Talk to him, I think you won’t mind, just two minutes..."

Maca looked at Harry standing on the other side, who was also living by Lohatra, and Harry gave him an awkward smile.

Lockhart didn't seem to really want Professor Sprout's consent. He said "excellent" and closed the greenhouse door to Sprout.

"Oh! The youngest pharmacist! I heard that you were a first-year student when you invented the'Xianyin Potion'! Is this true? It's amazing..." Lockhart said happily, with a hand Pressing Maca's shoulder, one hand waved up and down with the topic, looking quite excited.

"...I also heard that you were very low-key when you first entered the school, quite low-key! Just like when I was a kid-but in any case, gold always shines, just like me. Although you still can't compare I won the "Witcher Weekly" Most Charming Smile Award five times in a row to get the scenery, but one day you will reach my level—"

"Sorry, Professor Lockhart." Maca interrupted him and said calmly, "If there is nothing else, I think I should go back to class."

Having said that, he pushed the door into the greenhouse, closed the door, leaving Lockhart standing there and blinking awkwardly.

"...Well, I think," he turned his head, the stiffness on his face quickly disappeared, as if he didn't care at all, and he turned his attention to Harry, "Harry, I think I can understand you..."

In the third greenhouse, Professor Sprout stands behind a bench in the middle of the greenhouse.There are about twenty pairs of earmuffs of different colors on the stool.

In front of everyone, there are large earthenware flowerpots with a plant growing inside. Seeing the green grass and leaves, they look healthy.

While the students were whispering, Harry also returned.He walked to the center of the greenhouse with a look of wonder, and sat down in the seat beside Ron and Hermione.

At this time, Professor Sprout tapped the pot with his magic wand and said loudly: "We are going to change the pots of mandela today. Now, who can tell me what characteristics the mandela has?"

Hermione raised her hand subconsciously-she did it all the time.But this time, after raising her hand, she glanced at Maca again.

Maca just stared at the Mandela grass in front of him, without raising his head at all.

"Miss Granger." Professor Sprout also glanced at Maca before speaking.

"Mandela grass, also known as mandela grass root, is a powerful restorative." Hermione memorized the knowledge points recorded in the preview almost verbatim, "Used to treat the deformed person Or those who have been cursed return to their original state."

"Very good. Give Gryffindor ten points." Professor Sprout said. "Mandrake is an important part of most antidote. But it is also dangerous. Can anyone tell me why?"

Hermione glanced at Maca again.

In the herbal medicine class last semester, Maca would always raise her hand to answer questions with her.To be honest, Hermione is always happy about it. She thinks Maca is the best friend in this school... But at this moment, the other party still has no response, which makes her feel very disappointed.
