Chapter 48 The effect of marjoram is sleep~
"Phoenix? But Fox doesn't look like it! Apart from being red, he has no other skills, and the fire he breathes can light an oil lamp. Isn't it said that the Phoenix can stand side by side with the dragon?

Fox looks so badass. "

Draco has also been raising Fox with Ed for almost half a week, and he doesn't have any special skills. The fire in the first two days is still enough to survive, but in the past few days, there are only smoke and sparks left.

"Okay, wait for the discussion, the teacher is here!"

Ed first saw Snape hurrying in with a book under his elbow, and the students who saw Snape coming shut up and lowered their heads, pretending to be reading a book, and met the cat with the mouse. like.

The shadow of a tree, the name of a person, even if it is the first time to take Snape's class, no matter whether they have seen it or not, everyone is afraid of Snape.

Snape, like Flitwick, picked up the roster as soon as class started, and, like Flitwick, stopped when Harry's name was called.

"Oh, yes," he whispered, "Harry Potter, here's our new one—something famous."

Draco and his friends Crabbe and Goyle put their hands to their mouths and giggled, but saw Ed look at him with a blank expression: "Isn't this funny?"

"Where is it funny?"

"Eh..."

When Ed was clicked, Snape also paused, looked at Ed, and opened his mouth to say something, but after seeing the Phoenix, he didn't say anything.

Snape looked up at the class after the roll call, eyes as dark as Hagrid's but without Hagrid's warmth.His eyes are cold and empty, making you think of two dark tunnels.

A head of greasy long hair makes you not want to get close to him, not even a single point!
"You have come here to learn the exact science and exacting craft of potion-making."

He spoke, almost a little above a whisper, but everyone caught his every word.Like Professor McGonagall, Professor Snape has the intimidating power to bring order to the classroom with little effort.

"Since there's no silly wand waving here, many of you won't believe it's magic.

I don't expect you to really understand the beauty of the white smoke and fragrance wafting from the slow-simmering cauldron. You won't really understand the liquid that flows into people's blood vessels, the kind that makes people's hearts sway and their wills blurred. Magical power.

I can teach you how to increase your reputation, brew glory, and even prevent death—but there must be one thing, that is, you are not the kind of idiots I often meet! "

Professor Snape's opening remarks were not well received by the students, and neither were the Slytherins.Compared to Dad, Snape was more off-limits to strangers.

At least Ed didn't approve of Snape's education style, he was fine, but everyone else was 11-year-olds, which was an excellent time to cultivate interest.Such a dark style is not welcomed by children.

However, if you encounter this kind of teacher in the third year of high school or junior high school, then you are lucky to go. Such a teacher will drive you to a dead end and make you have to study hard.

If you didn't like studying before, this year will change you from beginning to end.

After hearing Snape's words, Harry and Ron raised their eyebrows and exchanged glances.Hermione Granger moved almost to the edge of the chair and leaned forward, looking eager to prove she wasn't a dumbass.

Elizabeth sat upright with her back straight, looking at Snape with a serious expression, as if she was always ready to learn something from Snape.

And Thorne, the silly boy's snot again.

Draco's expression was even more exaggerated, his chin was raised, and he looked smug, as if he was sure of winning.

Ed is very strange, what is Draco proud of?Is it his long golden hair?Or a charming chin?

The expressions of most of the little wizards made Ed somewhat unexpected.

[The brain circuit of wizards is different from that of ordinary people. This kind of tone can actually stimulate your interest in learning. It seems that there is no need for me to worry about Dad. 】

Ed found that he was a little too salty to worry about eating radishes.

Snape scanned the classroom around the students, seemed satisfied with their reactions, opened his lesson book, then closed it again, walked quickly to Harry and Ron, looked Harry in the eyes and said:

"Potter! What do I get if I add daffodil root powder to a wormwood infusion?"

Hearing Snape's words, Ed suddenly remembered some plots of watching movies in his previous life, and knew that Professor Snape would make things difficult for Harry next.

And Fox standing in front of Ed's desk also guessed what Snape was going to do, spread his wings and waved lazily, then retracted his wings, stretched his neck to look at Snape and Harry, completely curious The appearance of the people who eat melons.

"Let's try again. Potter, if I asked you to find me a bezoar, where would you find it?"

……

"What's the difference between the boat-shaped aconite and the wolf poison aconite?"

……

"Then test you on the simplest one, the magical effect of marjoram?"

"This, I remember, this..." Harry replied hesitantly, frantically recalling what Professor Sprout said in the first herbal medicine class.

Just when Harry was at a loss, he suddenly saw that Braque had fallen asleep, "Sleep?" He clapped his hands together, stood up excitedly and said, "Yes! It's sleep, the magic effect of marjoram is sleep!"

Hearing Harry's answer, Snape's face, which had a mocking smile on it, suddenly stinks, and the expression on his face begins to freeze.

This made Harry wonder if he was wrong, but seeing the expressions on Hermione and others, he should be right?

"It seems that Mr. Potter, who has been in the Muggle world for a long time, has been polluted like a sewer in the Muggle world! Dark! Dirty! Stinky!
I think I should give you some potions to cleanse your mind!If you take my class in the future, no, shut up when you take other professors' classes!I don't want your words to pollute this sacred campus!

Porter!Because of your stupidity!One point from Gryffindor! "

Hearing that points would be deducted, Harry, who was scolded by Snape, felt even more aggrieved, but he still tried his best to keep eye contact with Snape: "But Professor, I..."

"Didn't you hear what I said?" Snape stared into Harry's eyes, "Gran... shut up!"

Harry wanted to say something more, but Ron quietly pulled his clothes and shut his mouth.

Hearing that Snape didn't deduct points from Gryffindor in the end, Fox blinked unexpectedly, then retracted his neck as if losing interest, and found a comfortable position to lie down.

Seeing this scene, Ed quickly took out a notebook specially prepared for Fox from his pocket and wrote:
The sleeping posture of the phoenix is ​​no different from that of ordinary birds, so although it is a magical animal, it should actually have no difference in many behaviors from ordinary species.

Maybe they just took different paths at a certain evolutionary node.

Fox isn't the only one sleeping, it's the fourth day in Voldemort and Snoke's visit to the Room of Requirement:

Voldemort, who had slept for four full days, moved his limbs convulsively, and a snook coiled around Voldemort opened his eyes: "You're finally awake, I'm hungry!"
