As the final exam approached, the suicide incident gradually subsided, and students who usually didn't study hard began to focus on reviewing.

Olivia was also uncharacteristically, holding Snape and Lily's notebooks and began to study hard.

"Thanks, Merlin." After staying at Hogwarts for a semester, Lily had long forgotten God. "You finally realized that there are two weeks before the exam."

Olivia finished reciting this passage silently with her eyes closed, then opened her eyes and said with a smile, "Trust me, Lily, two weeks is the best time to review things like History of Magic."

This is her experience of many years of surprise review.

"What about your potions class? I can assure you that you've only made scabies potions yourself so far."

"A total of 22 potions have been taught this semester. Not to mention the written test, I can guarantee that [-] of them can achieve A in terms of operation, and the other eight have used living bodies. I have never done it. The potion test is arranged on the third day. Next, I can practice one in two days, which is enough to get all the potions to A level before the exam." Olivia said with great confidence.

"...Why are you so proficient in taking the exam!" Lily couldn't look directly at her attitude of passing long live.

Snape said suspiciously: "I would like to ask, in your plan to learn a potion in the past two days, will I not exist?"

"How is it possible!" Olivia said strangely, "Without you, would I have to cook noodles with herbs?"

"...Where did your righteous confidence come from?"

Olivia ignored his complaint and continued to recite the next paragraph.

She is very selective when she memorizes, she doesn't read the textbooks, only the notes, not the supplements, but only the main points. In order to prevent the details from interfering with her memory, she doesn't even glance at the content except for the marked test sites. , the belief that one point is not rare.

Snape suddenly had the illusion that she was the most efficient way to study.

Olivia is a pure pragmatist in her studies. Other students study hard because they want to get good grades in all subjects, but she only cares about the subjects that she finds useful, such as astronomy, magic It's not that she's not good at history and potions, it's just that she doesn't think it's useful so she doesn't bother to bother.

In a sense, Olivia is an extremely stingy person. She will measure the value of everything to herself, and then devote the corresponding energy accurately, unwilling to waste a cent.Of course, the most valuable thing to her is what makes her happy.

Valuable and interesting, in Olivia, are often synonymous.

A question popped into Snape's mind: So, to Olivia, was he interesting because he was valuable, or was he valuable because he was interesting?

After only thinking about it for a second, he deleted this inexplicable thought.

In the evening, the two of them were too lazy to go to the Room of Requirement, so they practiced potions in the potions classroom in the cellar.At this time, many people came to review the potions, and they were not conspicuous inside.

Olivia was much more serious than when she was in Potions class. Even though the skinning of the toad felt so disgusting that she wanted to vomit, she still finished it swiftly with gritted teeth and held her breath.

This first-year potion was no problem for Snape. He could guide her steps and movements while distracting herself from reading, sometimes pointing out her mistakes without even looking up.

This kind of situation usually happened in the Room of Requirement before, and it was also in this state when Olivia taught him the spell.Now that his identities were reversed, Snape also had a dark feeling of finding his way back.

"I wasn't so strict when I taught you." Olivia went to wash her hands, dissatisfied, "I said that my requirement is only A."

Snape raised the corner of his mouth: "Your request embarrasses me, I only know how Potion O works, but I don't know what Potion A looks like."

"...Don't pretend we're still friends." Olivia felt that his tail was about to curl up in his chatter.

She walked over and glanced at the book in his hand: "Have you started reading potions for fifth grade?"

Snape said that this was nothing: "Potions before the OWL exam have relatively low requirements for operation. After the exam determines the development direction, the potions class will become a little more difficult. But generally speaking, the school stipulates that mastering None of the potions are too difficult."

He looked dissatisfied with it.

Olivia gave him two supercilious glances.

It's like a top student is disgusted: "This year's simulation paper is not at all level."

"Let me tell you, you can't survive one episode on TV with the way you speak." Going out is definitely the end of being sacked and beaten into concrete.

Snape snorted proudly and continued writing and drawing in his notebook.

Olivia leaned over to look: "Huh? Are you still studying the development flower?"

"Didn't you say last time that you want the words on the notebook to disappear and then appear in another notebook? I tried many methods later. Basically, it can't be done by developing flowers. It can only be printed on the same object. work on it.”

Olivia didn't feel disappointed: "It's okay, I thought of a new way."

Snape was also very interested in this: "What?"

At this time, it was Olivia's turn to act aggressively: "Actually, it's not too difficult. Last time we went to the kitchen, didn't we see those four tables? If the food is put on it, it will automatically appear on the tables in the auditorium. I I thought maybe I could learn from the principles in it, and tried it, and the result was not what I expected.”

Since it was a pretense from a different field, and the well water did not touch the river water, Snape still praised it quite generously: "It's a good idea, so your 'gadget' is also successful this time?"

"The basic requirements have been met." Olivia paused slightly. "There are some other special requirements. I don't have time to make them now. Let's talk about it after the exam."

Snape felt that her tone was a little strange, and after looking over it, he found nothing wrong, so he laughed and said, "It's rare that you can still put exams ahead of not doing your job properly."

Olivia shrugged her shoulders and said in a timely manner: "My happy summer vacation cannot be ruined by make-up exams."

"Leave the make-up exam aside. Let me remind you that if you don't add deer bone powder, you will have to cut the toad again."

Olivia exclaimed, and hurried over to deal with the potion that was still brewing.

No longer paying attention to Snape, Olivia concentrated on cutting the rootless wood.The branches of rootless wood have mucus, are tough, and are very difficult to cut. If you are not careful, it is easy to scratch your hands, so she is very careful every time, and dare not use too much force?

"You will go beyond the stipulated time if you dawdle like this." Snape couldn't see it, and walked to her side to demonstrate the correct way to handle it, "Hold your left hand obliquely like this, at an angle, turn the knife sideways, and Push in the opposite direction."

"Is that so?" Olivia followed suit.

"wrong."

Snape couldn't help but took her hand directly from behind her, and led her to do it: "Like this, be decisive when cutting, otherwise the knife will slip away."

Olivia followed his strength obediently.

The thick black hair somewhat blocked the line of sight, Snape moved closer to see the herbs in his hand, and said softly, "Yes, raise your left hand a bit so that you won't cut your hand."

"Well."

Olivia's eyes unconsciously moved along the knife to the overlapping hands.Although they are still children, one can find that Snape's hands are slightly wider and thicker, with dry palms, obvious knuckles, short manicured nails, and slightly darker skin at the fingertips. hand with medicine.The boy's hand is still soft, and the fingerprints of the slender fingers are obvious, which cannot be said to be particularly pleasing to the eye, but——

Is it a preconceived influence?She smiled.I always feel that these hands are especially suitable for doing extraordinary things.

The hand was squeezed hard: "Are you listening? Have you learned it?"

"Yes, professor." Olivia said respectfully.

Having completed today's review goal, the two of them packed up their things and prepared to go back. Unexpectedly, they ran into Hugh Bloom at the door of the lounge.

After that incident, I don't know if Xio hid on purpose or everyone was busy, except that he was in the same classroom during class, this was the first time Olivia saw him head-on.She didn't know what the situation of these two people was like in the dormitory, anyway, according to Snape's character, she would definitely not let herself suffer.

He glanced sideways at Snape, and sure enough, he looked like he was facing the air.On the other hand, Xio opened his mouth in embarrassment, and lowered his eyes before he could speak.

He used to be like a little rabbit, but now he can't wait to tuck his head into the collar of his clothes.

Olivia didn't have any ill feelings towards him. Speaking of which, he didn't do anything serious, just lock the door, which could be considered a "prank" at best.Now that Snape gave a powerful counterattack, and there was no deep hatred between the two sides, Olivia's perception of him hardly changed.

It turned out to be an ordinary classmate, and it is still an ordinary classmate now.

It's not important, so it doesn't matter.

Olivia said the password, and Snape walked in first, Hugh followed behind silently.

She glanced back knowingly as she drew back the curtain, just in time to see Hugh turning his head to look at her too.

Blinking, she nodded and smiled as usual.

Hugh froze.

At the door of the dormitory, Olivia was stopped.

She raised her eyebrows: "Johnson?" There were only three girls in this year's Slytherin, and she was Kerry Johnson who lived with another girl, Nicola Stone.

This girl is not as presentable as her roommate, and she seems too cold and reticent compared to the expressive Nicola.In the Potions class in pairs, Nicola could often be heard gesticulating, and she just kept her head buried in it.

Olivia has basically never talked to her, so she is also very curious about her intentions when she came to find her.

"I know, it's presumptuous to say so suddenly, I just want to ask you, is it acceptable to be in the same room with another person?"

It seemed that she was mentally prepared in advance, she looked calm and generous, and there was no special expectation or request in her tone.

Olivia didn't answer directly, but said with a smile: "Perhaps, you can explain your purpose of coming here a little more clearly?"

The rhythm was disrupted, Kerry was silent for a while, and then said: "I want to change my roommate, if you are willing to share a room with me, I will apply to transfer to your dormitory next semester. Of course, if you don't want to Just pretend I haven't been here."

No matter who it is, I definitely prefer to have my own space.Olivia lived alone for a semester, and suddenly asked her if she would like to have more roommates?That must be unwilling.

only--

"Do you have a regular schedule?"

Kerry was startled, and quickly replied: "I will go to bed before twelve o'clock in the evening and wake up at seven o'clock in the morning."

"You don't snore, grind your teeth, sleepwalk and talk in your sleep, do you?"

"……Won't."

"You won't pry into other people's privacy, and use other people's belongings at will?"

"I can assure you that I don't have that superfluous curiosity."

"I think living habits should also be healthy?"

"Personal items will not be placed randomly, washing time is normal every day, there are no pungent perfumes and cosmetics, no posters for chasing stars, I don't like to sing, dance and play music loudly, I don't invite a lot of people to the dormitory for parties, and I don't know how to put food The crumbs are eaten all over the place, and it will never disturb the rest of the roommate."

"..." Olivia looked delicately at Carrie, who spoke a long string of words without stopping.

So, does that Nicola Stone do things like that a lot in the dorms?Then it's no wonder she would want to change dormitories.Change to a more brutal roommate, this kind of person will be poisoned to death.

She wasn't alluding to Snape, no.

The corners of Olivia's lips raised: "If you can accept your roommate's inconsistency, won't tell others about your roommate's private gossip, and keep a friendly distance between the two parties, I don't mind adding you as a roommate. "

A look of joy appeared on Kerry's face: "Thank you, Orpington."

"Oh, yes, and the most important point." Olivia looked into Kerry's eyes, "I hope you don't make such a big fuss like Severus' roommate."

Kerry obviously understood, and nodded slightly: "Don't worry, I know who is more difficult to mess with."

After two weeks of intense review, the sword of the exam that had been hanging over their heads finally fell. The weather at this time was also extremely hot, which made the candidates' brains and bodies feel like they were going to be confused .

As soon as the Herbology class was over, Lily and Mary pulled Snape over the answers, and when they disagreed, they both looked frustrated.

"I got rabbittail and sage mixed up," said Mary desperately.

Snape moved his mouth, as if he wanted to question how the two completely different herbs were mixed up, but he didn't say anything in the end.

Olivia is relatively calm, but she is not completely nervous.

"I think I can get an A in my astronomy test." She said distressedly, "but the professor said that my performance is too bad and he wants to deduct my average marks. Do you think he is joking?"

The three looked at her sympathetically.

"Actually, I think he's been waiting for this day." Snape said gloatingly. "You're dozing off every time you're in astronomy class."

"There really is no difference between counting the stars and counting the sheep."

"You go talk to the professor about this."

Olivia sighed.

The last exam was History of Magic. Olivia finished the questions carefully and roughly estimated the score. After she was sure that she could get an A, she raised her head happily.

The bleak Professor Binns floated in the air by virtue of being a ghost, flying around the classroom to prevent any student from cheating.

The other three people who sat far away from themselves were still burying their heads in writing. Thinking of waiting at the door after handing in the paper, Olivia lay down on the table and drew with a quill pen in boredom.

I just drew a Q version of Lily and Mary, and when I was about to draw Snape, something suddenly fell on her leg, and before she could react, someone in the classroom shouted: "Professor, Orpington is cheating! "

The students who were still answering the questions raised their heads, everyone looked at Olivia, and there was a commotion in the classroom.Professor Binns floated slowly over while shouting "Quiet!"

Olivia glanced at the ball of paper on her leg, and then at the person who made the report.

Nicola Stone.

She dodged her eyes and felt a little guilty, but she quickly raised her chin and showed a smug smile.

Olivia couldn't help laughing either.

Does this silly little girl know what she is doing?

His eyes swept across the classroom, Lily and Mary looked worried and angry, and Snape raised his eyebrows, showing a half-smile.Kerry frowned and stared at Nicola in disgust.Xio opened his eyes wide, with an eager look on his face.

Too lazy to argue with Nicola, Olivia directly handed her paper and the book on her lap to Professor Binns, and said calmly: "Professor, this book is not mine. It was thrown away a minute ago." To my lap. I'm willing to take Veritaserum to prove my innocence."

Veritaserum?

Most of the first-year students showed puzzled expressions.This does not belong to the learning category of the first grade, and even a pure-blooded little wizard is not often exposed to this name.After all, the only occasion where this potion appeared in a fair manner was the Wizengamot, and under normal circumstances no one would want to use it.

Although Nicola was a little dazed, she also knew that things did not go as she expected, and she began to panic.

"No, I believe anyone who is willing to take Veritaserum." Professor Binns returned Olivia's test paper to her, and then turned to Nicola, "If you don't want to hand in the test paper, please continue the test. As for this This book, please get it from my office after the exam is over for the person who threw it away.”

Although neither Olivia nor Professor Binns named them, everyone guessed who did this.

Nicola turned pale.

Olivia saw Snape twitch the corner of his mouth, and lay back on his stomach to continue writing the paper.

She couldn't help frowning, and brought her head so close again, what a bad habit.

The author has something to say:

Meow, meow, I didn't make it before twelve o'clock, I was so tired!

Typing on the mobile phone is tiring, but I don't like sitting in front of the computer. It's really tangled.

Before, I saw that my article was on the monthly list, but I went to see it the next day and it disappeared. According to the points, it should still be ranked. I don’t know what’s going on =_= You can still read it on the list to?
