Overturning Hogwarts

Chapter 67 The Potions Class

Zhang Rui originally didn't want to care about the fight between Voldemort and Dumbledore.

As a Chinese, why would he risk his life to get involved in the internal struggle among British wizards?

His reputation is not justified, but he performed so well that he might be betrayed by his teammates backhand.

This is not unheard of in China's diplomatic history. It was originally to help them fight the invaders, but after the fight, it turned against the Chinese and regarded the Chinese as enemies.

But now there is no one else around except Dumbledore to prevent the news from spreading, so Zhang Rui dared to speak his mind boldly.

To put it bluntly, his idea was to weaken Voldemort's mass base, put him on the opposite side of all wizards, and even use public opinion warfare to discredit him.

Even if he is still alive in this way, he will no longer be able to summon his loyal subordinates and can only live in the underground world.

"I'm afraid it's very difficult to do the kind of thing you're talking about." Dumbledore shook his head and refused.

"First of all, the Death Eaters in Azkaban cannot be killed casually. We do not have this power."

"Can't you also kill those Death Eaters who have done so many evil things and killed so many people?" Zhang Rui was very puzzled.

If you are afraid of killing the wrong good person, then you can let go of the controversial ones first, but why should you forgive those who are unrepentant and whose hands are full of blood?

"Being imprisoned in Azkaban is already the greatest punishment for them. We cannot deprive them of their lives, so what is the difference between us and Voldemort?" Dumbledore said seriously.

The difference is big, okay, they are killing innocent people, you are punishing criminals.

Zhang Rui said a few words and stopped talking. I'm trying my best to help you anyway. If you don't want to do your own hypocrisy, then I won't care.

“To forgive the wicked is to harm the innocent.”

Zhang Rui stood up and said mockingly, "I won't tell anyone about the Horcruxes, but don't ask me for help in divination. If Voldemort and his Death Eaters know that I do this for you, come to me." When I was there, they wouldn’t talk to me about human rights.”

If Voldemort knew that he, Zhang Rui, was helping Dumbledore find Horcruxes, or that he might even be helping, he would just kill him without giving him a chance to explain.

"I am a foreigner, why should I care about your business? Don't come to me about anything about Voldemort in the future. Anyway, I will go back to China before Voldemort comes back. You can fight as much as you like!" Zhang Rui pretended to be angry. .

At the same time, he also stated that he would not be involved in Voldemort's affairs in the future, so as not to ask him to divination something, and he would not be able to divination.

After saying this, without wanting to hear any explanation from Dumbledore, he stood up and left the office.

Dumbledore looked at the divination master with some embarrassment, who was so angry that he left after a few words. Then he looked at the broken notebook on the table. Thinking back to what he said before, he let out a long sigh: "Foreigners are indeed unreliable. Look. It's still up to Harry to deal with Voldemort."

…………

Regarding the Horcrux, Zhang Rui and Dumbledore had a tacit understanding and did not tell anyone about it. Anyway, Harry and the others have no idea at all.

Life in Hogwarts has returned to normal.

The difference is that Zhang Rui actually started taking potions class.

"Isn't this our master of divination, the snake-slaying hero? Why did you think of coming to my Potions class?" Snape said sadly.

The two of them disliked each other. Of course, the reason was that Zhang Rui had never been willing to take potions class before.

"Professor, I am here to learn the precise science and rigorous craftsmanship of potion preparation."

Zhang Rui didn't pay attention to the other party's cynicism and said seriously, "I hope that under your guidance, I can truly understand the beauty of the slowly simmering crucible with white smoke and bursts of fragrance, and truly understand the liquid flowing into people's blood vessels. That kind of magical power that makes people feel fascinated and confused, learn how to increase your reputation, brew glory, and even prevent death!"

These words were the opening words of Snape's first potions lesson every time the first-year wizard took it. Zhang Rui just said it from a different angle.

It turns out that Snape said, "I don't expect you to really understand...you won't really understand...I can teach you..."

Snape was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that someone would remember his words so clearly. Such words were not a point of knowledge. Even the top student, Miss Granger, would not be bored enough to write them down in her notes.

But why can Zhang Rui remember it clearly?

Because he had his first Potions class last year, he thought it was fun and recorded these words with a video recorder. However, he was not interested in the Potions knowledge that Snape said later and did not remember it at all. Even after taking the first Potions class, he decided to give up the Potions class because of dyslexia.

Naturally, Snape would not refute these words, because this was his own opinion.

"Fame doesn't mean everything. You've missed so many classes. I'm afraid you won't be able to keep up. Why not take classes with the first-year students next year?" Snape said sarcastically.

You are missing a year and a half of courses and you have no foundation at all. How can you possibly understand it?

Zhang Rui smiled shyly: "Actually, I memorized all the previous potion textbooks. I think it's quite simple. It doesn't take so many years to learn just that little thing."

"Did you memorize it? You can't learn Potions by rote memorization!" Snape said angrily, especially when he found that Zhang Rui didn't even have a textbook on his desk.

"Professor, you are right. I also think that textbooks are useless, so why don't I come to learn from you in person?" Zhang Rui said with a smile. He now has Riddle's knowledge reserve and understands the Potions class very well. It's just that he lacks hands-on ability, which is why he came to potions class.

"Really? Since you said you memorized the textbook, I'm going to give you a good test."

Snape simply didn't believe that Zhang Rui could memorize the textbook, so he immediately asked a few questions from the textbook.

Zhang Rui answered easily, and it was absolutely correct.

Snape gradually increased the difficulty and even asked questions about things he had not yet learned, but Zhang Rui still answered them.

"It seems that the Divination Master has really worked hard." Snape said reluctantly, "But Potions class is not useful just by memorizing knowledge. The key is your hands-on ability. Can you brew the potion?" success!"

With a smile on his lips, Zhang Rui watched Snape leave his desk, dug out a bunch of potion materials from his schoolbag, and began to try to make various potions in his mind.

Miss Granger, you may not be the first in age this year.
