Harry Potter’s Book of Sin

The first day after school started was still a sunny day, and the weather was so good that it was a good start for the freshmen.

Of course, the content of the first-year learning is relatively relaxed, and most of the courses are based on adaptation subjects.Compared with them, Harry and the others, who had just entered the sixth grade, had to work much harder.

Yes, this year, the course is up.

In the .LS exam, everyone's grades are not bad, so that there is a lot of room for further study selection this school year.As the professor of the potions class is still Slughorn, there are obviously many more students who continue to choose the potions class this year.You know, when Snape taught in the past, the course was!

"...Harry, listen to me, the knowledge of potions is very useful! In the future, whether you are looking for a job after graduation, or dealing with troubles in your life, or even when you are in danger, it will be useful! So I recommend……"

On the way to the potions classroom, Hermione was walking beside Harry and Ron, babbling as she always did.

"Hey! Hermione, I already understand." Harry said helplessly, "have I already chosen all of this? You see, I have come to class with you, so don't reiterate its importance to me. Up."

"I don't think you've already'understood'!" Hermione glanced at him and said angrily, "Remember? You used mine for your review materials last semester, and I helped you with the review schedule. You made it. You don’t pay much attention to this course, don’t I know?"

"Oh, Hermione, we'll study hard—" Ron on the side also leaned forward. As a good buddy of Harry, of course he couldn't watch him being nagged by Hermione, "Just the magic Slughorn is in charge of the medicine class, so we can listen carefully, really! This is not like a defense class..."

"Listen carefully?" Hermione suddenly turned her head and stared at him when she heard the words. "Just'listen carefully'? I told you,. Courses, understand? During the holiday, I have already put the textbooks for the last two years I’ve previewed it three times, but even so, I don’t dare to say that I understand them all... But you just told me to'listen carefully'?"

When Harry heard this, he suddenly understood why Hermione would stop the two of them from talking as soon as school started — co-authoring because she had been holding back most of these words for the holiday?

"It's really hard for you. I didn't write all these words in the letter and send it to us during the holiday..."-Of course Harry didn't dare to say this sentence, just muttered in his heart.

So, Hermione kept talking about it all the way, until the three of them came to the corridor outside the potions classroom, and then she barely stopped.Seeing that she finally closed her mouth as if her conscience found it, Harry and Ron couldn't help but glance at each other, then both breathed a sigh of relief.

At this time, there were probably more than 30 students gathered in the corridor, which is actually quite a lot in terms of the number of students in Harry's class.But what is surprising is that Hufflepuff accounted for eight of the thirty-odd students.If you look at the proportions of previous years, this is a huge leap!

Yes, although Hufflepuff College has always been characterized by the largest number of students, the little badgers are mostly not good at potions, spells, and other subjects that tend to be talented, such as herbalism and polymorphism. The subjects are their strengths.

It seems that as a wizard who walked out of Hufflepuff, Maca's influence on the academy has slowly become apparent.

Of course, in Hufflepuff College these years, Ernie McMillan is probably the most affected.Even if Maca is actually not as good as Ernie, but where Maca can't see, Ernie always regards him as his best friend.

For Ernie, in addition to bragging about his relationship with Maca, he naturally gave birth to the thought of catching up.Although it shows that I know that most of it will not be able to catch up, but if he is bragging at the same time, it is embarrassing if he is questioned that his "friend of Maca" is too bad?

Right now, Ernie has also passed the grade requirements of the refresher course through his own efforts, and is standing here with the students who have also studied hard.

"Harry, Ron, Hermione," seeing the cubs coming here, he took the initiative to greet him, "it was really boring in Snape's class in the morning! Isn't it? But want me Say, even if Snape did get a corpse into the class, I wouldn’t be afraid at all—"

"Oh, uh...yes!" Harry echoed with an awkward smile, "As far as you are concerned, there is really nothing to be afraid of."

Ernie will often show some boasting and show off if he has to say it.But on the whole, he was still a nice guy, at least Harry and they didn't hate being friends with him.Because only those who have worked hard know that behind Ernie's rhetoric, there is actually a lot of struggle hidden behind it.

"Yeah! You are right—there is nothing to be afraid of," Ernie said with a smile. "How can the old members of. Be scared by those words of Snape? Ah, Hermione, Do you think the Potions class will be different for a while? It must be more difficult, right? I think..."

He also wanted to continue to show his confidence, but unexpectedly, the class bell suddenly rang, interrupting his conversation.Then, the door of the classroom was opened.

After a holiday, Slughorn's figure was obviously much "fuller" than last semester. Before he showed his face, his chubby belly entered everyone's field of vision.

"Aha, are you all here?" The old bald head walked out into the hallway with a smile on his face, and then looked left and right, "Great, come in — come in! Still in the classroom like last semester Just feel free to do it, class is now..."

The old man was as enthusiastic as last semester, and he saw everyone with a kind and gentle smile.Of course, there are always a few people he likes better, such as Harry's reputation, another such as Shabini who has a family background, and another such as Hermione with excellent grades and amazing talents-these They are his most beloved treasures.

As soon as they entered the classroom, everyone quickly discovered the difference.

According to previous classroom practices, Slughorn first demonstrated the preparation process of a certain potion and at the same time explained the potion theory.But today, several crucibles of different sizes have been placed in the center of the classroom, and thick steam has accumulated on the ceiling, which looks like a whole cloud.

By the way, the smell in the classroom right now doesn't smell at all.

"Sit down first, sit down first! I think I have to congratulate you for the first class of the potions course!" Slughorn said with a smile, his beard shaking briskly. "Yes Yes, at the end of last semester, everyone worked very hard. I have to say that you did a great job, because you see-your hard work finally yielded results! It is not easy, I know... Congratulations on reaching the sixth grade!"

Before the words were over, most of the students clapped.It is certainly a happy thing to be appreciated by others for their own efforts, especially since their efforts have been rewarded.

"Then," Slughorn continued when the applause calmed down, "I believe everyone has seen it-there are several cauldrons here, filled with different potions, two of which were just completed today! I think You must be so confused, after all, I never put a few potions in a class before..."

Following his words, several students nodded their heads again and again-these were little wizards who usually like to learn.Surprisingly, Hermione, who used to be the leader among this small group of students, did not follow Slughorn today.

In fact, the attention of the students near the golden cauldron on the far left was somewhat distracted...They seemed to be attracted by the liquid medicine in that cauldron.

"...Oh, I think you guys don't mind standing farther away, so that you can listen to me well." Slughorn smiled and took two steps forward, turning the vent on the lid of the crucible to another Direction, "I know, that smell is wonderful, isn't it?"

As the scent moved away slightly, Harry, Hermione and the others who were standing nearby all took a step back, as if they had just recovered.It was only at this moment that they noticed that before they knew it, they almost moved their noses to the vents. The intoxicating expression caused other students to laugh.

"Okay, okay! As you can’t wait, I’ll say it more directly," the old man said, "The course is very difficult, but the content in the future courses, Because of this, it has a very great value. If you can absorb all the knowledge you have learned into your mind, then they belong to you-when you graduate, I hope you can all put the content in these crucibles The potion is prepared independently."

Having said that, Slughorn paused for a while, then reached out and picked up the lid of the crucible on the far right.Everyone immediately saw that the liquid inside was constantly tumbling, clear and transparent, as if it was just a crucible of clear water in it.

"So, the first one!" He raised his hand and motioned, "Who can tell me what kind of potion is in it? If you can, you can briefly talk about its efficacy."

Before the words fell, an arm that no one knew in the classroom was raised quickly.In a daze, Harry even seemed to hear the whistling sound caused by the excessive speed.
