[Zhongyingmei] Carrying the handle Vera

.Walk through the bright corridor all the way, go down the relatively damp cellar, and arrive at the professor's office.

Unlike the cold and damp outside, the inside of the office is dry and warm, and the layout is very luxurious.

Professor Slughorn is a very kind-looking little old man. When he saw a few people coming, he smiled and entertained them to sit down and have a cup of tea.

"Professor, is the potion ready?" Seeing Vera's anxious look, Lily asked aloud. She used to be Professor Slughorn's favorite student, so she spoke bluntly.

"It's done." Professor Slughorn nodded, and turned to get his potions cabinet.

It was a small-looking box, which could be easily carried in his hand. He tapped it twice with his wand, and the box automatically grew larger, and then opened automatically from the gap in the middle, opening and closing on all sides, forming a unique It was a small cabinet that was quite large, and it was filled with all kinds of precious potions.

He took out a transparent glass vial from it, which contained a light green potion.

He handed the potion to Vera, and said: "I heard that your friend has an old injury. If he can't walk for several years, his muscles will definitely atrophy to a certain extent. This potion can not only heal his bones, but also heal his bones." Heal his muscles, but it will hurt a little, after drinking it, he can stand up after an hour or two."

Vera carefully took the small bottle of potion with both hands, opened her mouth, and finally said, "...Thank you."

Vera has lived for more than [-] years and was spoiled by her family lawlessly. It is the first time in her life that she is so sincerely grateful to someone.

Professor Slughorn watched Vera staring at the potion for a moment, not daring to take it or put it in a cautious manner, and smiled more kindly, "You have helped us so much, I should do some small things within my power." Yes, besides, this is what Dumbledore ordered me to do, and it's just my job."

Vera held the potion related to Charles' future in her hand, her voice was stiff for a moment, but she couldn't say anything good, so she could only say thank you again.

After a pause, she suddenly remembered something, raised her head and said, "Is there any potion that can heal scars, Professor?"

"Yes." Professor Slughorn nodded.

Vera looked happy, "Great, my godfather was disfigured many years ago, his face was covered with scars, and he wore a mask all year round. Can you give me another bottle of potion?"

Professor Slughorn didn't think there was anything wrong with Vera's rudeness, and agreed: "Yes, but I don't have a ready-made product at hand now, and I need to cook it now."

"I can wait." Vera said, "I'm going back to China tonight, I don't know how long it will take you."

"Then you just sit here and wait for a while, half an hour is enough." Professor Slughorn said readily.

The potion for treating scars is not difficult to make. Generally, as long as the scars are not caused by special injuries, they can be cured. For example, the scars caused by werewolves contain toxins, and there is no way to completely cure wolf poison, so it cannot be cured. Others All scars should be curable.

Vera put the potion in her pocket, thought about it, and felt uneasy, took it out, found two newspapers to wrap it up, then put it back in her pocket, and took a pin to fasten the pocket again. Just rest assured.

Seeing Vera's cautious look, Lily couldn't help laughing and said, "You are careful."

Vera smiled happily, her eyes were full of excitement, "Because this is so important."

This time even the nervous James smelled the rancid smell of love, and laughed along, "I remember that potion bottles usually have protective magic on them, right?"

Lily nodded and said to Vera, "So you don't have to worry about the bottle breaking."

"Really?" Vera was taken aback, and said, "It's okay, I feel more at ease this way."

After all, this potion is really important.

The three sat and waited for a while, and the house elf that James had asked to help take care of little Harry came and told them that little Harry was awake, so James stood up and wanted to go back and bring him over.

Within 10 minutes, James came with Harry in his arms.

Little Harry is not yet one year old, and lying in the swaddle is very well-behaved, white and tender, with a pair of emerald-like green eyes, round and round, very cute, and a thin layer of black hair has already revealed his unruly characteristics , upright.

Even if Vera didn't like children, she couldn't help teasing her for a while.

Vera stretched out a finger and gently poked his face, it was soft, like a piece of cotton candy.

"Giggle~" Little Harry laughed immediately. He greeted her with a babble, stretched out two chubby little hands and waved at Vera, and then grabbed Vera's index finger that was about to withdraw.

Lily next to him smiled and said: "Oh~ he likes you."

Vera was stunned for a moment, and then smiled, she really didn't expect that she would be so popular with British children. You must know that when she was in the United States, every child would be afraid to avoid her.

Willa looked at the baby Harry with a smile, and said, "I've never been liked by children before. I have a good eye, kid~"

Little Harry immediately babbled again, holding Vera's little hand tightly, and kept shaking his other little hand at her.

James clearly felt that the little Harry in his arms was struggling towards Vera, he couldn't help laughing and scolding: "You boy, you don't want your father anymore when you see a beautiful young lady, do you?"

Even though he said that, he still sent Harry to Vera's direction.

Willa was a little dazed. She looked at little Harry who was smiling happily, then looked at James with doubtful eyes, and asked, "Let me hug you?"

James nodded, "He likes you, you can give him a hug."

Seeing that James handed it over again, Vera took it in a hurry, and said at a loss: "I've never held a baby before... Wait, he's moving! What should I do?"

Lily helped Vera to put herself in the right position and let her hold little Harry in the correct posture. Little Harry, who finally got his wish and was hugged by the beautiful young lady, smiled even more happily, holding Willa with his two little hands. The clothes in front of his chest, he clutched hard and couldn't let go.

Lily laughed immediately, "James, Harry is just as rascal as you."

"Nonsense!" James refused to admit that it was his fault, "I'm not as rascal as he is, how good I was when I was young."

Willa hugged little Harry stiffly, not daring to move, for fear of breaking him.

Professor Slughorn's speed is very fast. Sure enough, the scar removal potion was brewed in half an hour. It was also packed in a transparent glass vial. The liquid was light blue, so there was no need to be afraid of messing with another bottle. wrong.

Vera breathed a sigh of relief, and she quickly handed little Harry back to Lily so that she could take the potion from Professor Slughorn.

"Ah!" Little Harry, who felt Vera's movement, shrunk his mouth and immediately became unhappy. He still held Vera's clothes in his hands, and he refused to let go.

Willa looked helplessly at the little Harry who refused to get out of her arms. She didn't dare to use force in her hands, but she still couldn't get him away, and she became stalemate for a while.

Lily looked at her son dumbfounded, tried a little ingenuity in her hand, freed little Harry's hand from holding Vera's clothes, and then quickly hugged him.

Little Harry: "Hey! - yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Little Harry looked at his mother pitifully, trying to show off his cuteness in exchange for his mother's soft heart, but Lily was so cruel that she pretended not to see it. Little Harry pursed his mouth and turned his head to look pitifully at Vera, and Vera All his attention had turned to the potion.

Vera took the potion, took off the pin fastened in the pocket again, took out another bottle of potion wrapped in newspaper, opened the newspaper, and put the freshly baked bottle of scar removal potion in it , the two bottles were afraid of bumping into each other, so they deliberately separated several layers of newspapers, then carefully wrapped them in newspapers, stuffed them into pockets, and fastened the pockets with pins to prevent the potion from falling out. Be very careful.

He looked at Professor Slughorn in a daze.

After receiving the two bottles of potion, Vera breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that she was complete.

Professor Slughorn: "There is a protective potion on the potion bottle, so don't worry about breaking it."

Lily glanced at Vera who was smiling happily, and said, "We told her just now, but she thinks it will be more at ease."

Professor Slughorn: "..."

Vera touched the swollen pocket and said, "I'm going back now."

Lily was taken aback, "Going back to the Muggle world? But you haven't finished visiting yet..."

"No more visits." Vera shook her head and said, "Potions are more important."

Lily and James looked at each other with understanding in their eyes, nodded and said, "Okay."

James immediately sent a message to Professor Dumbledore using the Patronus, because this is the fastest way to deliver the message. It didn't take long for Dumbledore's message to come back:

There is a problem with the Ministry of Magic. I'm afraid I won't be able to go back in a short time, so please send Miss Claire back.

ps: I connected the principal's office to the hearth of Ted's house - 311b Queen's Road.

Opening the fireplace passage is definitely the safest and quickest way. James, who was still thinking about which secret passage to take, had to give up his thoughts.

After leaving the cellar, the four returned to the principal's office.

In front of the principal's office on the eighth floor was a huge stone beast. James yelled at him: "Bloody lollipop." After that, the stone beast immediately spun and moved away, revealing the automatic Spiral staircase.

Vera followed them up the stairs, and after standing up, the stairs automatically went up and sent them to the gate of the principal's office.

It was a shiny oak door with a griffin-shaped brass knocker, and James pushed it open first and went in.

After several people entered, they went straight to the fireplace in the principal's room.

James found the box containing the Floo powder and explained to Vera how to use it.

"This is Floo powder. After a while, you grab a handful, then stand in the fireplace, throw it hard under your feet, and shout the name of your destination. Your destination is the Tonks' house, and the address is the Queen." Road No. 311b, remember, you must pronounce the words correctly and clearly, and don’t make typos, so that you can reach the correct destination.”

Vera nodded, "I remember."

James: "Okay, let me give you a demonstration first."

As he spoke, he grabbed a large handful of Floo powder, stood in the fireplace, threw the Floo powder hard under his feet, and shouted: "No. b311, Queen's Road!"

With a bang, a burst of green fire sprang up in the fireplace, and then quickly disappeared, and James had disappeared in place.
