Harry Potter and the Legend of the Temple

Chapter 217 The Half-Blood Prince’s Potions Textbook (Part 1)

Snape wanted Louis to make a fool of himself in front of the class, but unexpectedly, this boy was not afraid of danger, and prepared the advanced potion without even referring to the textbook.

There was silence in the classroom, and everyone was silent for a full minute. They had heard about Louis' powerful potion skills, but this time they saw with their own eyes that the third grader actually prepared the assessment content with his own strength.

Snape wanted to say something else, but at this time the bell rang, and the students filed out as usual. Ginny Weasley was dragged to chat by her sisters. Louis had no choice but to follow the large group out and at the stairs out of the dungeon. We met Astoria waiting there.

"Professor Snape has gone too far. You have done nothing wrong. Why should I confine you and make you look embarrassed in public?" Astoria defended Louis. In her opinion, being late for class was just a trivial matter. , besides, this is only Louis’ first offense, so the confinement shouldn’t be so serious.

"He is a professor after all, and Professor Snape has been unhappy with me for a long time." Louis spread his hands, "It's just that I may have hit the muzzle of his gun today."

"I heard that the potions he stored were stolen a few days ago, and he has been in a bad mood these past few days." Astoria shook her little head, "But even in our Slytherin, we can be in a bad mood. There are only a few people he can talk to.”

The two were talking and walking, and at some point, the two got closer and closer. Astoria had her hands behind her back, and her shoulders were almost touching Louis.

"By the way, there's something I've been wanting to ask you." Astoria turned her head, "You and Ginny Weasley..."

"Sister Astoria, brother Louis!"

Before Astoria could finish asking, her words were interrupted by a childish shout. The two looked towards the source of the sound, and saw the Russian girl Natasha waving to them excitedly. Also following was a boy wearing Gryffindor clothes.

"Little Natasha, how are you doing at Hogwarts?" Astoria knelt down and looked at the girl who was two years younger than her lovingly.

Since the classes for the first-year students are quite separated from their third-year classes, and Natasha doesn't often stay in the common room, so although Astoria is in the same college as her, they don't see each other often.

"It's good. It's really very different here from our place." Natasha said happily, "You know, in Siberia we are covered with ice and snow all year round. It's only in the past two years that I've been in the UK and I can really feel the difference. What is spring and autumn?”

"Moreover, it's unimaginable that you actually use brooms as a means of transportation. You have to know that we can fly into the sky with just a few brooms."

Little Natasha was so boastful that she seemed to have endless things to say.

"Also, Professor McGonagall recently praised me and said that I have a talent for transfiguration..."

Louis was never tired of the little girl's chirping voice, and he noticed the boy who came with Natasha.

The boy lowered his head very shyly, his hands crossed and waving in front of his chest, his head lowered, as if he didn't want to look directly at Louis and Astoria.

"Dennis? Dennis Creevey?" Louis asked uncertainly. He had only met Colin's younger brother Dennis once, not since that day when freshmen were sorted.

The boy raised his head, as if surprised that Louis actually knew him, and then his thoughts turned around and he saw that Louis was the senior who sat next to his brother that night.

"Louis Wiggins, a third-year Gryffindor student." Louis took the initiative to introduce, "Why are you with Natasha, Dennis."

You know, it is a very special thing for Gryffindor students to hang out with Slytherin students.

(Hey, why do I say special?)

"Study... Hello, senior, actually, Natasha and I met in the Transfiguration class." Daniel looked a little shy, "I... I... was late for class, and then I had no place in the class. .”

Louis roughly understood that the acquaintance between Dennis and Natasha was a bit strange, but Natasha, a Muggle blood, was actually not welcomed in Slytherin.

(Professor McGonagall’s inner OS: It turns out that being late for class is a Gryffindor tradition.)

"Big brother and big sister, where did you plan to go before, why don't you take me with you?" Natasha looked pitiful and begged in an almost coquettish tone, dragging Astoria's arm.

"This..." Louis didn't want to drag a tail that couldn't be shaken off, but before he could respond, Astoria softened her heart.

"Okay, then you can just come with us."

Louis reluctantly waved to Dennis and Natasha. Although he was reluctant, this was Astoria's wish and he couldn't refuse.

However, just after taking a few steps, a Ravenclaw student walked across from him, it was fourth grader Michael Corner.

He gave Louis a note about Professor Snape's confinement.

"He wants me to come over now?" Louis frowned, wondering what kind of medicine the Slytherin Dean was selling.

It was still evening, and it was time for the Hogwarts dinner. Snape might have done this on purpose.

Lewis could only accept it helplessly and apologize slightly to Astoria.

The girl did not complain. She knew that Professor Snape was uncertain. In order to encourage the boy, she took the initiative to hold his hand and then gave him a smack on the face.

"Go, I'll be fine." Astoria smiled and said goodbye to Louis outside the castle bell tower.

. . . . .

He had been at Hogwarts for three years and had been to the dungeons dozens of times, but this was the first time he went to Snape's office.

Although he became the temporary Potions Professor last year, Snape had locked the office with magic, and his use of the Alajo Hole didn't work.

Following the path to the Potions classroom, he walked to the door of the dark office and knocked on the door.

"Please come in."

"Professor Snape." Louis opened the door respectfully and slowly entered.

The light source in this office was not bright, and all kinds of bottles and cans were piled up in the room. Snape climbed down from the locker on the ladder and looked at Louis with an indifferent expression.

"You're here? Very good." Snape pointed to the pile of books spread out in front of him.

"Your mission today is very simple. If you see that pile of books, sort them out. Of course, you are not allowed to use magic."

Louis followed his fingers and found a pile of dusty books that seemed to have not been touched for several years.
