A day at Hogwarts

At noon on the first day of the next semester, Filch posted an announcement on the bulletin board to hold a duel club, sign up this week, and start activities next week.

At the same time, the fact that the Dueling Club selected personnel to participate in the Potions Tournament also spread in private, and was confirmed by the heads of the duel club.

Who doesn't want to go to a foreign country to open their eyes, no matter what grade there are people signing up for it.

But that's not about some people.

The students participating in the Potions Tournament started the "Dark Lord-style training", and they did not climb out of the Potions classroom until after eleven o'clock every night.

At this time, Charles had already prepared a sumptuous supper in the kitchen next to him, and everyone was full of praise for the translator.

To Charles' surprise, the youngest member of the training team was Hufflepuff's fourth-year student Cedric Diggory. I heard that he is good at pre-processing potions and is very useful in limited-time games. Buy a lot of time for the team.

Also unable to join the Dueling Club is the Gryffindor Quidditch team.

As long as Gryffindor wins Hufflepuff in the next game, they will be the champions of the year, so Wood has put a lot of emphasis on training, and the players have no time at all.

The Potions Tournament team started the day after the Quidditch match.

Charles originally wanted to sign up to play, but he was punished by Snape for confinement in Potions class on Friday because he stepped into the classroom with his right foot first, and he went to work in his office every night.

In the afternoon, three people were busy in the second greenhouse.

Now that greenhouse number two was ready for use, Professor Sprout had given Charles the task of trying to grow a batch of Chinese biting cabbage with the aid of Muggle manure on the first day.

Now that the seeds in the nursery trays in the greenhouse had sprouted, Charles asked Seamus and Neville to help transplant the strongest seedlings into pots.

"Did Snape target you?" Seamus shoveled soil into the flower pot while fighting for Charles.

Neville was putting fertilizer and gold in the pots aside, and said, "Snape targets every Gryffindor."

He was also one of those targeted by Snape.

Charles was digging out the newly sprouted Chinese kale and the surrounding soil to put it in a flower pot, and said to the two of them indifferently: "It's okay, he can't do anything to me."

Then he asked Seamus, "Are you in the Dueling Club?"

He went back to the dormitory late to prepare for supper, and Seamus had already gone to bed, so he didn't have a chance to talk about it.

Seamus replied triumphantly: "That's for sure, Professor McGonagall also thinks I will have good grades!"

Charles shivered for a moment, and hurriedly said: "You have to pay attention, the other students are not monsters, nor are they weeds!"

Now the girls at Hogwarts know that Seamus is very powerful and can easily kill trolls.

Charles also sneaked to the women's bathroom to see the marks left by the troll, which was really shocking.

Seamus said, "Don't worry, I won't use fire."

Charles was relieved after hearing this... No wonder, God knows what he can do again.

"Neville," Charles asked again, "you also participated?"

Neville replied, "Yes, Dad wrote to let me join, but I don't know how to use fighting spells."

Charles thought for a while, and gave him the note that Dumbledore had written for supper, and said, "At 8:30 tonight, wait for me in the kitchen, and I will teach you some simple and easy-to-learn little spells."

Then he said to Seamus: "Seamo, you come too, I will take you to a good place to practice spells."

Simo asked him curiously, "Where is it?"

Charles laughed silently.

The three of them transplanted dozens of Chinese cabbage bites into flower pots before dinner. Charles also took a little soil from 10 flower pots and put them in the glass bottles that were originally bought for explosives. Numbered labels.

The soil samples were sent back to 3 Privet Drive by Harry's owl this evening. The old man has already connected with a professor at the University of Surrey through his contacts, and he doesn't mind asking students to do some experiments to determine the nutrient content of soil to make extra money. The old man received the sample early in the morning and sent it to a university not far away, and the test result could be sent back to Hogwarts by Hedwig in the evening.

Both Charles and Jack were curious about the absorption of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium by magic plants.

After dinner, Snape went back to the office, and Charles followed.

Snape has been very busy recently. He has to give special training to the participating students every night. He didn't talk nonsense with Charles. He put the seven textbooks he used in class on the table, pointed to the blackboard next to him and said to Charles: "What you have to do is Draw all the potion configuration process on the canvas, and hang it on the blackboard when I teach."

"If you make a mistake and someone else makes a mistake, the responsibility is on you."

"When will you finish writing and when will the confinement end?"

Charles's face was colder than Snape's. What's the difference between this meow and having to make a PPT by yourself?

At this time, he turned his head and asked, "I want to add pictures of the crucible and materials, but I'm not very good at drawing, can I ask someone to help me draw?"

He found that Snape didn't have time to take care of himself recently, so he planned to "outsource" the work, whichever girl Hermione thought was appropriate.

However, Snape sneered, and said: "If you don't know how to draw, learn it. I will decide when the confinement ends and see the results."

Charles curled his lips. It is still possible to draw by yourself, but he can't draw moving pictures.

Fortunately, there is an oil painting association in Hogwarts, you can find help.

Snape went to the Potions classroom to train the students. In the office, Charles first extracted the potion preparation process in the textbook, made a flow chart, and then animated it.

It had to be said that Snape was capable. The textbook he used for class recorded many mistakes that students were likely to make. When a student made a mistake in class, he could immediately tell where the mistake was.

But his teaching method is not good. He didn't take the initiative to bring these things up. He would only hold the bar when the students made mistakes. If the students did the work step by step, his task would be completed.

It's just that the workload given by Snape is too much, there are more than one hundred kinds of potions to be prepared in the seventh grade, and one month's time may not be enough.

But Charles didn't care about it, since Snape didn't set a time limit, let's fish for fish, take time out every day to do it slowly, and kill himself if he has the ability.

Suddenly, a flash of light flashed in Charles' mind, and an interesting idea appeared in his heart.

He thought, if his ideas were implemented, maybe Snape would really kill himself.

It was fun to think about, so Charles decided to do it.

But it's going to take time, and tonight I'm taking Neville and Seamus to the Room of Requirement to teach them the spells.
