HP: By the lake of Snake Garden, flowers bloom on the other side

Classroom 11.

The students came in in twos and threes, and were all amazed by the scenery before them to varying degrees.

Licorice usually goes to class earlier, and she came with Pansy today.

As the two Slytherin sisters came in, they were dazzled by the sight of the new Divination classroom.

"Lycoris, this magic is so cool!" Pansy reached out and touched the tree trunk closest to her, then sniffed it. She turned her head excitedly and said to Lycoris, "It feels very real, with the rough texture of the bark and the fragrance of the plants."

Pansy thought they were all fake.

Just like those flying elves created by magic at Christmas, she really didn't expect that everything in front of her was real.

Seeing her curious and lively appearance, Licorice smiled at Pansy and said, "This is the classroom that the principal gave to Professor Firenze. Naturally, he will use the things he likes to simulate the environment he wants."

How could it be fake that the Centaurs admire nature so much?

Firenze arrived at the classroom early, and saw the surprised look on the face of the first student when he came in and saw him.

The number of students gradually increased. Some were curious about the environment they were in, while others were curious about themselves.

Firenze could understand.

After all, not everyone is as pure and sincere as Hagrid. These little wizards in front of him come from different colleges, so naturally their personalities are different.

Firenze heard the short-haired Slytherin girl express interest in the tree in front of her, and then the long-haired Slytherin girl explained it to her.

When Firenze saw her appearance clearly, his pupils shrank for a moment.

He subconsciously pawed the grass with his front hooves. He recognized the long-haired Slytherin girl.

Last time she collected the blood of a lot of dead unicorns. She is a very weird girl.

Licorice had no idea what the new Divination professor not far away was thinking of her. She pulled Pansy, whose curiosity was satisfied, to sit on the grass and wait for the rest of the students to arrive.

All the Slytherin students have arrived, and after Potter and Weasley came, the lost Longbottom also came - and now all the Gryffindor students are here.

Firenze took the initiative to shake Potter's hand, and Draco rolled his eyes when he saw it.

Seeing Draco's expression, Licorice knew what he was thinking: Saint Poter is happy again, right? The new divination teacher is so attentive to you, how happy are you to show off?

Harry saw everyone from Gryffindor House staring at him, some with respect, some with fear - oh, and he could also feel the strong jealous look from Malfoy from Slytherin House.

He sat down on the grass not far from the Gryffindor students, Harry was afraid that he would scare everyone.

Apparently everyone thought they had a better personal relationship with the centaur Professor Firenze, and since he looked so scary, there must be something about him that others didn't know.

Potter was a perceptive and considerate boy, and Lycoris watched as Harry sat down and Weasley sat next to him.

Draco saw Lycoris staring at Potter and said to her, "Is Scarface so good-looking?"

Lycoris held Draco's hand as he sat cross-legged on his knees and blinked at him.

Draco turned his head to look at Firenze, but his slender fingers held Licorice's hand.

Firenze began to explain why everyone was taking classes here instead of in the Forbidden Forest, which had the same natural conditions as here.

He had been expelled from the Forbidden Forest by the Centaurs and could no longer set foot in the Forbidden Forest again.

Everyone is very quiet.

Some of them don't care about it, and some of them are afraid that Professor Firenze will feel uncomfortable when his race is mentioned.

"Everyone lie down now." After saying this, Firenze raised one hand.

The lush branches spread out, revealing the night sky.

Lycoris and Draco lay on the grass hand in hand, looking at the starry sky above.

The stars in the sky are very messy.

The most obvious one is a shining red star.

This reminded Licorice of the "bright Mars" prophecy made by Ronan and Bane, who were also centaurs, in their second grade.

To Licorice, Venus was also bright, but Saturn was dim.

According to what I have learned in astronomy and divination classes, the future is good.

"Mars is the brightest, Mercury is also bright, Saturn is not bright..." Draco was lying on his side, muttering to himself, and Licorice heard it.

Firenze commented that Trelawney's divination class was "nonsense", nonsense full of personal subjectivity.

Some students who liked Trelawney felt sorry for her and thought that Professor Firenze was going too far.

Harry accepted it well. Compared to Professor Trelawney who always kept talking about her own death in every class, Professor Firenze seemed too normal.

The first class was undoubtedly a great success.

During the break, Firenze suddenly came over and asked Licorice not to leave after class.

"Are you familiar with Professor Firenze?" Draco asked her doubtfully.

Why did Professor Firenze suddenly want to keep Licorice?

"Do I look like I know something?" Lycoris asked, sorting the sage she needed in her hands.

After the rest, it is time to burn grass and watch the smoke.

Every student felt choked by the smoke, but no one could tell anything from the smoke.

If it was Professor Trelawney, she would have called out the name in disappointment by now, but not Professor Firenze, he didn't care.

Lycoris felt a strange sense of disconnection as she listened to the professor of the divination class, which was supposed to be an idealism course, speaking materialistic words.

"It's normal that you can't tell. We are a tribe of centaurs who are famous for divination, but not every centaur can make accurate divination every time." Firenze looked at the group of dusty little wizards and said lightly, "Don't be too superstitious about divination. Sometimes, knowledge can also make mistakes."

The bell rang for the end of get out of class, and Lycoris stood there obediently, waiting for everyone to leave.

When Harry and Ron were the only ones left in the classroom, Firenze asked them to stay and let them go after telling Hagrid what to say.

With the clatter of horse hooves, Firenze walked up to the girl and swung his silver tail.

The girl's brown eyes looked into Professor Firenze's blue ones, waiting for him to speak.

"When Mars is bright, war will begin. When Saturn is dim, fate will fall." Firenze saw the result of the divination, which was what he didn't want to see.

What does this have to do with me?

Licorice was very confused, because she was not the only one who saw it. For example, Draco also saw this constellation.

"Your horoscope is unclear. Have you ever wondered why?" Firenze knew that the girl in front of him had very good academic performance and she should know her horoscope.

It turned out to be this.

Licorice smiled at him and said, "Professor, as you said, I don't believe in divination."
