Harry Potter and the Attack of the Squibs

"Like any mediocre teacher telling you that, yes, learning is about gradual steps and it's best to follow the limitations of mediocre people?"

As he spoke, Snape turned around gracefully and waved his wand: "The textbooks are flying!"

Following this powerful shout, the wooden cabinet on one side of the classroom suddenly opened, and two heavy tomes flew across half of the classroom like thunder and landed on the table in front of Lu Ke.

"This is a necessary textbook for learning Potions to advanced levels." Snape turned to face Lu Ke. "If you want to practice during a certain period of time outside of class, I will be in the office next door. If there are any questions, I will not Tell you the answer."

Lu Ke nodded.

"Don't think about getting any help from me, unless you really need to make high-level potions."

Snape looked at Lu Ke, showing hesitation for the first time.

But seeing the curious expression on Lu Ke's face, he immediately put away his expression.

"The production of high-level potions also uses wands. Although witchcraft is not required, I'm afraid Squib..."

Snape nodded to Lu Ke: "I will help you."

Lu Ke smiled: "Thank you, Professor Snape."

As if Lu Ke's words made him a little uncomfortable, Snape swung back the hem of his robe like a bat flapping its wings, turned around and strode away towards the door.

"The time is coming. This is the Potions class for the first years of Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw. It's time for you to leave."

Lu Ke nodded, picked up three big books that were very heavy for him, and walked out of the classroom.

"Goodbye, Professor Snape."

Without saying a word, Snape turned and walked into his office, slamming the door behind him.

Lu Ke couldn't help but smile at Pallas on his shoulder.

Then he passed the Hufflepuff first years, walked out of the passage, and came to the entrance hall of Hogwarts Castle.

It's still almost nine o'clock, and there's still a lot of time in the morning.

So Lu Ke decided to go to Professor McGonagall.

Of course, if he really wanted to study potions and find a way to cure his Squib, it would be best to go to Professor Sprout in the Herbology class.

Many of the rare materials needed for potions can be found in the greenhouses of Hogwarts. Besides, Professor Sprout is also the headmaster of Hufflepuff. There are many little wizards in this college who like food. The entrance to their common room It is said that it is right next to the kitchen, and it must have something in common with the cooking god Lu Ke.

But Lu Ke still chose Professor McGonagall, partly because the two were familiar with each other, and partly because he wanted to establish a good relationship with Gryffindor in advance.

This way we can be Harry's friend after he enters school.

Lu Ke walked up the stairs to the second floor, and then knocked on the door of Professor McGonagall's office.

Then the door was opened directly.

Professor McGonagall looked at Lu Ke with a surprised look on his face: "Slytherin has no classes this morning."

Lu Ke nodded: "I want to ask you for help."

Professor McGonagall was silent for a moment, then nodded: "Come in."

Lu Ke walked in.

This office is very small, and it looks like it can't be a professor's office at all, but the layout inside makes people feel very comfortable. There is a bookshelf on one side that is almost as high as the entire wall, filled with books.

"sit."

Professor McGonagall walked to her desk and poured Lu Ke a cup of tea.

"Actually, I tried the spells in the textbooks many times before school started, including transfiguration."

Professor McGonagall looked at Lu Ke with a look of sympathy on his face.

"I found that I was really a squib. I couldn't cast all the spells. The wand had no response. No matter how excited I was, nothing strange happened around me."

Professor McGonagall looked at Lu Ke seriously: "But you have to believe in Hogwarts. This has never changed. Admission notices to Hogwarts will only be issued to qualified young wizards."

Lu Ke smiled and nodded: "I never thought about giving up. In fact, I came here this time to find a way to avoid getting zero points in the Transfiguration class."

Professor McGonagall smiled: "This is difficult."

"But if you need it, I'm willing to do whatever I can to help you."

Lu Ke nodded: "There are two ways to solve a problem. One is to look at what successful people have done before, and the second is to find a way to see clearly what the problem is."

Professor McGonagall glanced at Lu Ke in surprise.

From the perspective of an eleven-year-old wizard, Lu Ke's calmness in talking about his Squib was a little too strange.

"No Squib has ever been cured. This is clear to everyone. As for the second method... no one has ever been able to tell clearly what is wrong with the Squib, just like no one knows why wizards can cast spells. ”

Lu Ke nodded: "This is the crux of the problem. There is nothing in the world that cannot be explained."

Professor McGonagall glanced at Lu Ke in surprise: "Not even Dumbledore or even Merlin thought about explaining this problem."

Lu Ke smiled: "Even if you can't explain the problem, you will gain new knowledge in the process. This is the most important thing."

Professor McGonagall looked at Lu Ke and sighed helplessly: "You should really come to Gryffindor or Ravenclaw."

Lu Ke smiled awkwardly.

He can only blame himself for this problem. Who made him not learn from Harry and prepare his mind in advance and talk to Brother Hat properly.

Professor McGonagall looked at Lu Ke: "I have been hesitating whether to do this, but now I think it is okay."

Lu Ke looked at Professor McGonagall blankly: "What?"

"Professors at Hogwarts are qualified to determine a student's score, on the premise that test scores cannot judge his effort and understanding of the course."

Lu Ke looked at Professor McGonagall with a serious face, still a little confused: "So?"

Professor McGonagall nodded: "I will take up your time outside of class and teach you the Transfiguration class alone. Based on your performance, I will give you scores so that you can advance to the second grade normally until you graduate from Hogwarts. ”

Lu Ke was stunned for a moment: "Is this really good?"

Professor McGonagall smiled: "So you'd better not make a mistake and use your own performance to prove that my decision was not a stupid impulse."

Lu Ke smiled helplessly: "So what is the content of my course?"

"Take this as your lesson in why wizards can cast spells."

Professor McGonagall looked at Lu Ke, and then shook his head: "Don't think that I will let you pass easily. In order not to waste my time and yours, I will be very strict with you."

Lu Ke nodded: "I will definitely work hard."
