Hogwarts: I Can Still Learn

Chapter 22 The Potion Genius

"Beep——" Vincent's timer rang.

When Qiu heard this voice, she wanted to run away, because it meant that her refreshing potion was ready.

"Don't run! Come on, drink it." Vincent knocked out the red potion he just touched, then cast a freezing spell on the pot of potion remotely, and controlled the potion with magic power to pour the potion into the beaker.

"F-kick this one and then drink." Qiu tried to make a final struggle.

"I seem to be acting up again!" It was George who spoke.As soon as he finished speaking, Qiu and Vincent's eyes seemed to pierce him.

It is said that there is an eternal law in the mahjong world: novices are always inexplicably lucky!

Vincent didn't believe it at first, until he found out that Fred and George took turns winning today...

It doesn’t make sense!They obviously, obviously won't fight!It was obvious that he had just taught them what playing cards meant, and they started playing cards non-stop from the third hand onwards...

After all, Vincent is an old man who has been playing mahjong for more than ten years, and Qiu has been playing mahjong for several years, but today they suddenly had the urge to pour the entire mahjong set into the toilet and flush it away.

"If I play mahjong with novices again, my surname will not be Zhang!" Qiu clenched her fists unconvinced.

"Come on, come on, the feelings are deep and the feeling is dull." Vincent suppressed the anger in his heart and handed the medicine to Qiu.

"Well...can you not drink it..." Qiu took it and smelled it, her little face wrinkled.

"no!"

The little girl had no choice but to flatten her mouth, hold her nose and pour the medicine into her mouth in one breath.

A second later, smoke billowed out of her ears.

"Here, here you go." Vincent held back a smile and handed her a piece of tangerine peel, and then received a glare.

"Do not laugh!"

"Hey, Vincent, can you give me the rest of the medicine?" Fred's eyes lit up as he looked at the half-pot of medicine left.

"Okay, okay, but what are you going to do, you have a cold too?"

"No, no, no, you underestimate this medicine. Using it to treat a cold is such a waste!"

George also added, "This is the ideal prank potion!"

"It has the potential to be a prank candy!"

"It was born to be in the joke shop!"

Seeing the two excited faces in front of him, Vincent felt a little helpless. He had forgotten that the Weasley twins were actually good elements.

"Oh, give it to you, don't let others drink it casually."

"Can you also show us the formula?"

"Oh, okay...this is it." Vincent pulled out an old book from the bookshelf and gave it to them, "It's on the first page."

The twins took the book back directly, as if they were handling some unique treasure.

Looking at their enthusiastic expressions, Vincent seemed to see himself who had forgotten all sleep and food in order to study the magic circle. Maybe they would stay at home and study that book in the next few days.

Vincent was wrong however, he saw them early the next morning.

The twins appeared in his home directly through the fireplace and woke Vincent, who was sleeping soundly.

"Hey! Vincent! Wake up!"

Fred and George shook his shoulders and patted his face.

"Well...let me sleep a little longer..."

"Hey! Vincent! It's us! Get up!"

"Huh?" Vincent opened his eyes drowsily and saw two identical excited faces, and instantly fell asleep.

"I'll go! Fred George? Why are you here?" Vincent was frightened and sat up directly.

"Quick, quick, quick! We want to borrow your secret base!" Fred stretched out his hand to drag him out of bed.

"Ah? Now?" Vincent shook off his hand, took out his pocket watch and looked at it, "No, it's only after five o'clock, and Aunt Elise hasn't gotten up yet."

"She's up."

"We were woken up."

"We didn't know which room was yours when we arrived."

"So just look at it room by room."

"..." So you woke up my whole family?

It’s only after five o’clock!Let no one live anymore!

Of course, Vincent couldn't go downstairs to the laboratory so early. He didn't ask what they wanted to do, he just gave them the keys and ignored them.

Then the twins didn't come to see him again for several days, and they forcibly used his experimental equipment.

He didn't go to the garage to disturb them. He stayed at home and wrote homework (his cousin's) with his cousin these days.

It’s still most comfortable to do questions or something like that…

After a week of such peaceful days, the twins approached Vincent again.

Sigh... As expected, children are all interested in three-minute fever, and they lost interest in potions after only one week.

"Oh, the key was returned to me. Look, I just said that sooner or later you will all learn about a boring subject like potions... hmm? What is this?"

As he spoke, George stretched out his hand and gave him a long list.

Vincent opened the parchment, and what was written on it were either common or rare potion materials.

"Ahem, um...the materials in your laboratory need to be replenished." George looked a little embarrassed, but in the end it was Fred who explained it clearly.

"I'm sorry, Vincent, we accidentally used up all these...but don't worry, we will pay you back in the future."

The expression on Vincent's face was blank for a few seconds, and then he said with half surprise and half confusion: "Impossible! I buy goods by weight, enough to last for several years! It's only been a week... What on earth are you doing?”

"Of course there are many discoveries!" Speaking of the research results of the past few days, the twins suddenly became excited and dragged Vincent to the greatly changed laboratory.

Vincent almost couldn't recognize the garage. Except for the medicine cabinet and shelves that were still his, the rest of the garage was basically in a mess.

There were several holes in the carpet, seven or eight cauldrons were dirty, and several contained potions that he couldn't name.There were parchments written on things everywhere on the ground, and there was a smell of sulfur in the air.

Vincent exited expressionlessly and looked up.

Well, the rolling shutter door is still familiar, the smelly ditch is familiar, and the alley is familiar. Why don’t I recognize it as soon as I walk in?

I must be opening it the wrong way...

"Hey! Vincent! What are you doing standing there! Come on in!" Fred and George pushed Vincent into the garage as if they were greeting guests.

Hiss——, how do I remember that I am the master here?

"Here, look!" Fred gave Vincent another piece of parchment. His hands shook in fright, thinking it was another list of things to buy.

"We improved the recipe for the pick-me-up."

“Follow what’s on this page and you’ll get a smoker-booster!”

"..." You call this improvement?Vincent almost gasped.

"Of course we also made an antidote!"

"So now the size of the smoke from this medicine is controllable!"

“We’re going to develop a prank candy out of this!”

"Just scream and boil the kettle!" x2

"...Actually, I think it's more appropriate to call it an air humidifier..." Vincent reacted for a long time before he could barely hold back these words.

! ! !No, that's not the point at all!

The point is that it only took these two guys a week to solve a problem that has plagued the potion world for hundreds of years! ! !

Although their purpose for doing this is a bit strange...

But this still doesn't change the fact that the two of them are actually potion geniuses!

Vincent vaguely remembered that a week ago, they were little kids who could even recognize Cordyceps Flower Black Chicken Soup as an age-enhancing drug.

But now, the days when treating a cold meant having smoke coming out of your ears seem to be gone forever.

I believe that Hipworth (the inventor of the refreshing drug) is in heaven, and I should be very pleased!

However, if this guy knew that someone was going to use his proud pick-me-up to make prank candies, he would definitely be so angry that he would come back to life!

"Actually, we also made a small discovery."

"Adding moonstone powder to the original formula can make the energizer achieve better results."

"It also makes it taste less pungent."

"But it's nothing compared to the discovery that we made the smoke bigger."

! ! !This is the right direction, Hundan!

I don't even have such a good talent, so why waste it on playing pranks?

hateful!These two potion wizards!
