[HP] Sickness and Medicine

The daisy that grows against the sun is indeed similar to the water of life and death, and it is also named 'living dead' which makes sense. "

"Then call it a 'dead creature'." Dolores couldn't help but suggest: "At that time, my body fell into a deep sleep before my spirit."

"Okay." Severus added a few more notes in his notebook, and then took out the sticker, ready to stick it on the medicine bottle.

"Wait—" Dolores shouted: "Can you——keep this potion a secret? Whether it's the formula or the name." This potion is far from being made public. I don't want to disturb the established order of time.

"...Yes." Severus hesitated for a moment, but still agreed, and in the end there was only a serial number on the label.

He suddenly became easy to talk at the moment, but it made Dolores uncomfortable.However, remembering the spells created by him that were made public by later generations, she understood a little bit.He pursues knowledge, questions authority, and is full of innovation, just to satisfy his thirst for knowledge, things like fame and status, and even basic patent rights are out of his consideration.

Severus put away his notes, turned his head to look at Dolores: "Now, let's talk about your confinement. Wigenveld potion - the kind you drank - three afternoons from today and tomorrow, every day Make a crucible, and the finished product below the good standard does not count. Questions?"

Dolores shook her head.Wigenveld potion is a theoretical course in the second semester of the first grade, and practical operation will be carried out in the second semester of the second grade. He set it as her voluntary labor task, which is much more reasonable than taking the Harry Potter life and death test at the beginning of school.

As an entry-level potion, Wigenveld's potion is not difficult. The reason why students are required to study it in two school years is because the brewing steps are trivial and monotonous. The version provided in the textbook has as many as nineteen steps; The brewing time is not very long, as a whole, the hour hand only needs to advance one step, but the penultimate step clearly requires half an hour, which makes the brewer have to complete seventeen steps within the first half hour. Slack for half a minute will not only delay the timing, but also affect the efficacy of the medicine.

Glancing at the clock, she saw that it was nearly seven or ten minutes before dinner time, just enough time for her to finish her potion before rushing to the auditorium, which must have been planned by Severus.She stopped procrastinating, went through the formula in her mind, turned around and rushed to the student storage cabinet to pick up the ingredients.

"Here." Severus stopped her from going to the operating table that she used to use in class, and personally ordered the one directly below the podium.

"Yes." Dolores made a bitter face behind his back, and then slowly complied.

In the first eight steps of brewing the Wigenveld Potion, you need to add salamander blood to the crucible four times, so that the color of the liquid in the pot will change from red, orange, yellow, green, blue, blue, pink to red. Rotation changes.It was the first time she learned this kind of potion, and she also cooked it together with her partner back then, like most other girls, to amaze herself with the colorful and colorful potions.The purple that is lacking in the rainbow can also appear after adding Flobberworm Mucus in step No.12, but unfortunately it will soon turn back to red during stirring.

The second time she added newt blood, Severus asked abruptly, "Don't you remember the spell to stir?"

Dolores' heart skipped a beat.It was her negligence.Working at St. Mungo's for so long, silent spells had become a habit; Cara, who worked with her, was too careless to notice this detail.But in any case, this is obviously not normal for a second-year student. She bites the bullet and argues: "I have operated it before, and it can be done without making a sound..."

"It's up to you." Severus didn't ask any more questions, and continued to correct his homework.

The color of the liquid in the pot keeps changing with the click of the second hand and the rustle of the pen tip across the parchment, and finally reaches the stage where it can be stewed on a low fire.She breathed a sigh of relief, sat down on a bench, and under the cover of steam, secretly looked at Severus who was working with his head bowed on the podium.

In the past, every time she watched him study at his desk, she always had the urge to lift up his drooping hair, so that it would neither hinder him from reading nor prevent her from watching him; now instead of looking up, his body hidden in the shadows The face is a little clearer, but it is still regrettable that the whole picture of the hair cannot be seen.

She unconsciously stroked her long hair, then took it to her chest and slowly smoothed it out.In this life, her hair is of excellent quality, with a pure and even brown color, and a slight and natural curvature. In her previous life, her short straw-like hair is simply incomparable.Based on this satisfaction, her hair has never been cut short, whether it is loose or tied in a ponytail, it makes this delicate and beautiful face even more elegant.

As if aware of her gaze, Severus raised his head slightly, his gaze passing her position inadvertently.She subconsciously turned half of her body to one side, revealing the most beautiful half of her face she found when looking at herself in the mirror.When he looked away with a calm expression on his face, she couldn't help being a little disappointed.

He was indeed so hard to please.Appearance is just no longer a deduction item. Is the answer still the same for what kind of women he admires?

Half an hour later, Dolores turned off the magic stove on time, and moved the cauldron to another iron stand.Her movement reminded Severus.He walked around the podium, walked to the operating table, tapped the edge of the pot with his wand, and a drop of medicine was separated and hung in mid-air, so that he could fully observe the color by candlelight.

The green liquid condenses into a natural spherical shape, like a gently watching eye.

"Okay." Severus didn't comment, only telling her to pass the test today.He removed his wand, and the drops of liquid fell back into the cauldron with a ding-dong sound: "Bottle after dinner, label it, and put it on the fourth shelf of the kitchen cabinet."

"Okay, professor." Dolores packed up her things, and said goodbye to him eagerly: "Then, professor, see you tomorrow..."

She was so happy to say see you tomorrow.There was no Potions class for the Hufflepuff second year this week, but the sudden increase in confinement allowed her to see him twice more.Being in the same room peacefully and harmoniously is a dream she has longed for for two lifetimes.

Maybe there are more than two sides, she secretly plotted.Maybe she shouldn't have succeeded in brewing the Wigenveld potion once, and if she failed once today, she would have one more time in the future.How could she refuse the reason for meeting that he sent to the door?

However, Dolores still failed to implement this little idea in the end.For the second and third times she was notified of volunteer work, Severus was not there, and she was alone in the empty classroom.She understood that it was her first performance that reassured him enough that there was no need for supervision.So she was busy for half an hour, in a daze for half an hour, and quickly completed the confinement.

Life had returned to the peace that made Hufflepuff feel relieved, and only made her slightly regretful.

But this calm is internal, and externally, in the whole castle, this year is destined to be busier than any previous year, just because of the arrival of Harry Potter, it is like putting a catfish into a fish tank, and all other sardines Show vigorous vitality.Every move of the Boy Who Lived can become news, and Kara, who came from a mixed-race family, seems to have become his admirer, nagging various gossip in her ears every day.

"Dolly, did you know—Harry is so gifted with flying! He's a Seeker on the Gryffindor Quidditch team! Oh, don't tell anyone! Gryffindor seems to want to treat him as a Secret weapon!"

"Dolly, the Nimbus 2000 that Harry received was given to her by Professor McGonagall! She really prefers him! With the Nimbus 2000, Harry will definitely be able to fly into a lightning bolt on the field!"

"Dolly, do you know Hermione Granger? She's so pitiful. That Weasley pulled Harry to exclude her. The boy is too mean! Granger must be envied because of his studies!"

All these, big or small, right or wrong, let Dolores slowly outline the image of the young Potter in her mind, and the one she was familiar with in her previous life seemed less and less real, like The two are just strangers with the same name and surname.

They were sitting in the Great Hall having dinner when Granger was mentioned.Because of Halloween, the food supply is extremely rich, and it can be regarded as a banquet.There was also a harmonious atmosphere in the teacher's seat, and even Severus's expressionless face was slightly relieved.

The seat to his left has been vacant for a long time, who is sitting there?Dolores thought for a while before she remembered that it was their black defense professor this year, named Quirinald Quirrell, a man who would have no sense of existence unless he stood on the podium and had weird clothes.

Soon he offered another possibility himself.Dolores, who is always paying attention to the teacher's seat, may have noticed that Quirrell's speech and behavior returned to the auditorium before Dumbledore.

"The troll—in the cellar—thought you should know. "" He fell into a coma after speaking like a last word.

Pseudo-protective agent ([-])

Quirrell fell at Dumbledore's feet, and no teacher immediately went to check on him, and the students who were in a mess underneath needed them to worry more.Dolores covered her ears amidst the screams that were close at hand, and at the same time keenly noticed that Severus suddenly became vigilant.

Wary of trolls?It shouldn't be.Giant monsters are the content of the black defense class of the first grade. She still clearly remembers that the head of this kind of big creature is similar to that of a cocoa bean. , as long as you deal with it properly, it is easy to escape from danger, and it is not difficult to stun one of them.

She withdrew her gaze and looked around. It was normal for a girl like Kara to be afraid.She was just about to comfort her friend when Dumbledore spoke up.He summoned the prefects and told them to take the students back to the dormitory.

"Back to the dormitory?" Kara's eyes widened instantly: "The troll is in the cellar, the common room of our college
