HP in the name of Slytherin

During the potions class in the afternoon, Harry was sitting in the cellar early, with Hermione on the left, Ron on the right, Catherine in front, and Severus next to Catherine. They seemed to surround him, making Harry very excited. sense of security.

With a "bang", Professor Snape still stormed through the door aggressively. He walked up to the podium with long legs, and his cold eyes patrolled the entire venue at the same time, like the king of the wilderness patrolling his territory. Even with the background from his previous life, haha Leigh and Hermione subconsciously moved their gazes.

Ron licked his lips nervously, but Catherine and Severus in front were very calm. Catherine held her head and listened to Snape's explanation of the beauty of potions, while Severus nodded in agreement from time to time.

Looking at this scene, Harry suddenly felt no longer afraid. The 11-year-old Severus listened to his grown-up Potions Master talking about how wonderful potions were. He nodded from time to time, thinking about it, it was like science fiction. Funny.

This time Professor Snape still asked three questions from his previous life. Harry knew that these questions were relatively basic and could be found in books and would be used in the future.

Hermione hesitated to raise her hand, fearing that she would be ignored by Professor Snape again like she did in her previous life.

Harry just wanted to be a quiet little lion, and he felt a little secretly happy when he heard Professor Snape asking other students to answer questions.

After the questions are asked, the potion to be brewed today will be explained about its characteristics, how to handle the materials, how to cook it, what the effect will be, and what techniques and taboos there are. The words are concise and concise, without any nonsense. Snape's Potions class always leaves enough time for the little wizards to practice.

As the dark cloaks patrolled the cellar, the little wizards were all in high spirits. Harry didn't want anything to happen to this rare and peaceful Potions class, so he naturally cooperated with Ron very carefully.

So he didn't notice that Catherine in front of him didn't do much since Snape said to do it.

She also sorted out some herbs, processed them and piled them to Severus. It was not that Catherine deliberately provoked her, but that she and Severus were used to it. As early as when he entered the classroom, Severus habitually Putting the simple things on Catherine's side, he left materials here that Catherine was too lazy to deal with.

Snape walked around and discovered that Severus was doing all the important work at Catherine's table. Catherine arranged the herbs as he walked down, and Severus cut the porcupine quills. When he came back, Catherine was slowly lighting the fire and slowly stirring the wooden spoon. Between Severus and her were two portions of porcupine quills, two portions of snake teeth, and now the second portion of horned slugs.

Severus' movements were quick and clean, and it was hard to tell whether he was aware of his arrival. He packed up the second set of horned slugs at lightning speed and pushed it between him and Catherine in a subtle way.

It looked like he and Catherine had processed the materials here together, so they were placed between them.

God knows, look at Miss Catherine's clean hands. Does she look like she has handled materials?

Severus tried to pretend, but Catherine stopped pretending and just picked up one and poured it down. Snape knew it was impossible, but he stood there in a bad way, wanting to see this person not working. Miss Catherine Fryer.

Unexpectedly, before Catherine could say anything, Severus looked up first: "Professor, do you have any questions?"

It was so natural that Snape almost suspected that he was the one with the problem and not the two of them.

But when he faced the same dark eyes of his childhood self, Snape seemed to realize at this moment that he and Catherine were sitting so close that their arms were almost touching each other, and Severus' whole body was also turned sideways to Catherine's side. .

Katherine...same.

Snape's heart moved. At this moment, Catherine also raised her head, as if watching him while he was operating. The porcupine quills gradually approached the crucible, and there was still a fire burning under the crucible.

thump—

The processed porcupine quills fell into the pot, and the expected explosion did not occur. Instead, pink smoke rose from the pot—this indicated that the potion was successful.

how so! Snape lowered his eyes and saw that the fire was still under the cauldron. In theory, the pot should be fried at this time...

boom--

There was a loud noise from the back of the classroom, and Longbottom's scream of pain and fear. Harry suddenly remembered that he had been so focused before that he forgot to remind Neville about the porcupine quills!

"Ten points from Gryffindor!" Snape was still wondering why Catherine's pot of potion didn't explode. Subconsciously, he guessed that it might have something to do with Severus.

Because when the three of them looked at each other, both Catherine and Severus showed a tacit understanding... it was strange, like a prank? Or show off? It’s hard to describe the emotion anyway.

As a result, before he could ask these two nuisances, Longbottom's side exploded, and he was sprayed with half-finished potion on his face. In just a few seconds, Longbottom's face had already been covered with scabies caused by the potion, and he was seriously ill. Just go to the medical wing.

For this kind of classroom accident, the professor in class had to take him to the hospital wing to explain the situation. Snape picked up the weak and helpless Longbottom, and said to the two nuisances sitting in front before going out: " The session ends with Catherine and Severus!”

Catherine and Severus blinked to see that they hadn't realized the seriousness of the problem. Harry came over and whispered: "You are responsible for cleaning up the classroom... Oh, and you must also watch everyone during class. Don't leave. Accident, points will be deducted if there is an accident.”

Just before get out of class, I would patrol the classroom when the professor was away, and after class, I would be responsible for picking up and sorting out the remaining trash.

Tom completely forgot that he was now a Slytherin student. He was so angry that he stood up first and said to the younger brothers: "Who didn't understand what the professor just said? Don't have an accident like Gryffindor!"

These words immediately cheered up the Slytherin snakes, and they stirred the cauldron with more energy.

Draco was the first to respond: "Hurry up and make it! It's just a small scabies potion."

The arms of the little snakes were almost turning into afterimages, and Severus also stood up: "Gryffindors who have any questions can ask me."

Catherine added: "The most important thing is not to get hurt, it must be painful."

Neville's tragic situation was still vivid in his mind. Gryffindor did not dare to compete with Slytherin for speed. They had always been careless and they really couldn't bear to cook the potion slowly.

The classroom became quiet and harmonious for a while. Slytherin worked hard to speed up, trying to go well and fast, while Gryffindor was cautious and tried not to cause problems.

Potions are not their area of ​​expertise. Let’s go back to flying lessons and worry about these Slytherins!

In the end, nothing went wrong in the Potions class after Snape left. He sent Neville to the hospital wing and explained the situation. He could have gone back as soon as possible, but he didn't expect to run into Dumbledore who had returned.

Compared with potions that won't hurt, Voldemort is more dangerous, so he naturally wants to ask about the situation... Even if he doesn't go, Dumbledore will still want to find him, because Dumbledore has brought back another injured person, and after school starts The medical wing is full of people and Madam Pomfrey is busy enough.

Snape said to himself that he was also busy, but then he thought about it, looking at Sirius who was in such a mess now, it was not bad. They were all potions. It didn't matter whether they tasted better or worse. He was willing to treat Sirius, and Sirius should be grateful. .

From afternoon to evening, Dumbledore left Azkaban long enough, but the gadget Catherine gave him never triggered, which meant that Voldemort never appeared.

Catherine has understood the situation, but still does not think her judgment is wrong. This is indeed the best time for "Voldemort" to act. It can cause chaos in Azkaban and confuse their sight, which is most conducive to the development of "Voldemort" .

Sure enough, at 12 o'clock in the middle of the night, Catherine suddenly woke up from her dream. The trigger device she made using one or two drops of Tom's blood was activated, and Voldemort appeared!
