Harry Potter: Dark Alchemy

After Wright walked out of the wooden house, the cool spring breeze blew gently on his face, and the hot feeling in Hagrid's wooden house was instantly gone.

Wright turned his head and glanced at Hagrid's cabin with the wooden door tightly closed again, and couldn't help but shake his head.

Although Hagrid's enthusiasm for magical creatures is indeed unparalleled, and his heart is very simple and kind, his brain circuit is also beyond the imagination of normal people. With Hagrid's current behavior, if he hadn't been a hybrid giant, he would have been tortured to death long ago without waiting until today.

Wright followed the address given by Hagrid and slowly walked to Professor Kettleburn's cabin. Even though Hagrid had just mentioned that Professor Kettleburn was very likely not in his room, Wright himself was not very worried about Lu Wei. Even if one day Lu Wei destroyed the house, there would still be tall Dumbledore to hold it up.

Besides, it was Dumbledore's idea to put Lu Wei in the room on the fourth floor. According to Wright's idea, whoever caused the problem should solve it.

It's just that this kind of thinking seems a little inexplicably sorry for Lu Wei, Wright thought silently.

After a while, Wright began to see Professor Kettleburn's house, but like Hagrid's cabin just now, the door of this room was also closed.

Wright quickened his pace and walked towards the house.

"Dong dong."

Wright walked forward and knocked on the door of the house in front of him: "Is Professor Kettleburn here? I am Wright Pass, a second-year Ravenclaw student. I have something to ask for your help."

But it seemed that Hagrid's guess just now was right. There seemed to be no one in the wooden house in front of Wright. Professor Kettleburn seemed not to be in the house at this time.

"Dong dong."

Wright frowned and knocked on the door of the house again: "Professor Kettleburn? Are you in the house now?"

"Okay, stop knocking. What do you want from me?" An old voice came from far away from Wright's left, "I am the Professor Kettleburn you are looking for."

Wright turned around and looked at the man standing far away who spoke.

He wore an old yellow straw hat on his head, and the hair exposed outside the furry brim was faintly gray. His hand with exposed veins was holding a thick light brown wooden stick. His skin was dark and rough, and there was a gray or yellow bag draped over his shoulder. It was bulging, and he didn't know what was put in it.

The sudden appearance of Professor Kettleburn was very consistent with Wright's impression of a professor of Care of Magical Creatures. However, what surprised Wright was that Professor Kettleburn only had one arm and only half of one of his legs. .

Why didn't Senior Penello tell me that Professor Kettleburn looked like this? Wright was a little confused.

To be honest, Wright didn't have a very deep impression of Professor Kettleburn, he just had a very vague impression. If he hadn't clearly remembered that there was a Professor of Care of Magical Creatures with this name before Hagrid, Wright would have thought that Professor Kettleburn was a character who did not appear in the original work like Professor Derwent!

"Hello, Professor Kettleburn, I am Lightpath, a second-year Ravenclaw student. Following Principal Dumbledore's advice, I am here to seek your help." Light asked Kettle who had already walked to the wooden house. Professor Byrne bowed and then explained the reason why he came here.

"Principal Dumbledore?" Professor Kettleburn frowned, "Even if he can't solve the problem, how can I, a bad old man, solve it?"

"Before I came, the principal once told me that there is no wizard in the whole school who knows more about magical creatures than you." Wright complimented.

"Okay, everyone knows that when it comes to erudition, there is no more knowledgeable wizard in the world than Dumbledore." Professor Kettleburn shook his head indifferently, and he stepped forward and opened the door of the room. , "He is just showing his modesty out of habit. Come in with me first!"

Wright followed Professor Kettleburn into the wooden house. The interior structure of this wooden house was roughly similar to Hagrid's cabin, and there were also materials of various magical creatures placed everywhere.

Professor Kettleburn took off his old straw hat as soon as he entered the room, and Wright noticed that his hair was indeed all gray.

It seems that Professor Kettleburn is quite old! Wright thought to himself.

"You sit there first!" Professor Kettleburn gestured to Wright to find a chair in the room and sit down, while taking something out of the gray-yellow pocket on his shoulder.

"I heard you said before that you were a second-year student in Ravenclaw House?" Professor Kettleburn asked.

"Yes." Wright, who was already sitting on the chair, nodded.

"That means you have never taken my class?" Professor Kettleburn muttered in a low voice, "I wonder why I have never seen you before. I can clearly remember the names of all the students. living."

At this moment, a small emerald-green creature suddenly jumped onto Professor Kettleburn's body from the pocket, and hooked its extremely slender green arms into the chest pocket of his clothes. Kettleburn Professor En gently tapped the creature's head with his finger.

"Is this a Bowtruckle?" Wright looked at the small thing that suddenly appeared in front of him.

"That's right." Professor Kettleburn stopped teasing the bowtruckle and looked at Wright in surprise, "I didn't expect you to recognize it."

"I just encountered this kind of creature in the Forbidden Forest." Wright said with some embarrassment.

"Forbidden Forest? Didn't Dumbledore completely prohibit students from going to the Forbidden Forest?" Professor Kettleburn said, "But I always feel that his rules are unhumane. These little cuties in the Forbidden Forest are so... It’s so lovable!”

Probably only you and Hagrid think those creatures are cute... Wright complained silently.

While talking, Professor Kettleburn finally finished sorting out all the things he needed to sort out. The pocket on his shoulder was completely shriveled at this time. Even the bowtruckle just now was placed on a potted tree in the corner by him, and then Professor Kettleburn quickly sat down opposite Wright.

"Okay, now you can tell me what happened. Dumbledore was at a loss what to do and asked you to come to me for help." Professor Kettleburn picked up the cup on the table and drank it in one gulp. said.

"That's right," Wright straightened his sitting posture, "I wonder if you have heard of a creature like a three-headed dog."
