[HP] I was the scroll king at Hogwarts
Chapter 77 The Prisoner and the Explosion
Alice is very nervous these days, because the list of finalists is about to come out.
"I know you're nervous, but there's no need to keep repeating it." Carrie rubbed her ears, "My ears are getting calloused."
"However, logically speaking, the list of finalists should have come out a week ago." Alice still couldn't help complaining.
First, it is said that the judges have different opinions and needs to be coordinated, and then it is said that some works have problems and need to be re-examined.In short, there are various reasons, and it is delayed again and again.
If it weren't for the official documents from the Ministry of Magic and the corresponding publicity in the major newspapers, she would even think that the competition was a scam.
"Just like our divination last time?" Thinking of the fate of that fake Trelawney, Carrie couldn't bear it anymore.
Not only was the tent burned, but the money she earned was confiscated by the Ministry of Magic who came later. Her photos and deeds were also exposed by large and small newspapers for several weeks.
"Alice, Professor Snape told you to go to the office." A Slytherin boy ran over to pass the message.
Ever since Andrew's relationship, Slytherin's mouthpiece has not been a constant.
Although he showed a look of being at ease, Alice intuitively guessed that Andrew was still very disappointed.
"Okay, thanks. I'll be right over."
After getting the reply, the boy didn't stay long, turned around and went to the Slytherin long table.
"Andrew should be sad again." Seeing the boy's back leaving, Carrie sighed leisurely, "Who knew the boy would be so naive and difficult to coax."
Although there is only one year difference in age, Andrew is two grades older than her.Every time coaxing her seventh-grade boyfriend is a physical and mental battle for fifth-grade Carrie.
"Sure enough, I said before that he still doesn't admit it." Alice wiped her mouth with a napkin, "I have already seen that many people in Slytherin admire Professor Snape very much."
"So why?" Carrie recalled Andrew's reaction, and agreed deeply, "But their preferences are a little bit too unique."
After much deliberation, she found that Snape's only advantage over other professors was that he was younger, but his disadvantages were too numerous to enumerate.
"It's normal, it's normal. Professor Snape is still very powerful, it's understandable." Alice just got up, and thought of something again, picked up the glass and drank the remaining pumpkin juice.
That's right, her daily drink has switched from milk to pumpkin juice since her last embarrassing experience with gas.
"Don't we adore Head Flitwick too?"
"But I still don't understand." Carrie looked at the teacher's seat. Today, only Professor McGonagall and Professor Sprout attended the dinner. "Such terrible people, I dare not even look at each other."
"You're exaggerating." Alice commented briefly, "Stop talking, I'm going to the office first."
……
As soon as she entered the office, before she could speak, a glass bottle was stuffed in Alice's hand.
The reason why it is called a glass bottle is mainly because its appearance is too simple, in short, there is no pattern at all.
The transparent glass bottle filled with pure white liquid gave her a sense of familiarity as a whole.
After thinking for a while, Alice suddenly realized, isn't this the pocket size of the milk she gave during the holidays?Still the cheapest one, even the packaging is very perfunctory.
"Professor, what is this?"
"Hair growth potion."
"Isn't there no final yet?"
"Because of an accident, the final was canceled and the prizes were distributed directly."
Alice's eyes lit up. Although there were no other awards, this award was far more valuable in her eyes.But with this kind of packaging, I just don't know if the organizing committee is poor or perfunctory.
Of course, leaving the professor's expressionless face, she chose to pretend to be happy for the time being.
"What a pity!" Alice sighed greatly. "I thought I could get at least one rank award."
She glanced at the professor again, why is her face still expressionless?It's hard for her to play like this.
Snape pretended he didn't see Alice's little tricks. It was rare that he didn't have class today, so he planned to enjoy the play performed by the students.
"The most important thing is that bottle of unicorn blood!" Alice patted her heart vigorously, as if the psychological pain could only be alleviated through the most painful pain, "Professor! We really failed your expectations!"
"It's over, I may have insomnia tonight. I guess I need to drink the dreamless potion to fall asleep." She supported her forehead, "but Madam Pomfrey will never give me the dreamless potion."
"Forget it, this is what I deserve, who told me to live up to your expectations, Professor?"
"Is the show over?"
Don’t know what a courtesy is?Don't know what a white lie is?Don't know what it means to see through but not tell through?
Alice really wanted to ask the soul three times, but she didn't dare, so she could only stand up straight: "I'm sorry, Professor, I exaggerated a bit."
"But you have to believe that just now are the truest thoughts in my heart."
"Did I say that this potion is a prize? But I still want to congratulate you, you have won the most practical award and half of the special prize." Snape gave a rare face, "This hair growth potion is what I promised earlier. Additional rewards."
As for the unicorn blood, according to the agreement, he has already used it for potion research.
"Half a grand prize?" Alice said she didn't understand, how can this thing be discussed in half?
"Because the final round was cancelled, the judges had different opinions, and finally decided to set up two grand prizes." Snape explained patiently, "The other grand prize is Germany's Durmstrang."
"I see." Alice nodded, showing a flattering smile, "It's all my fault, I didn't have the patience to listen to what you said before jumping to conclusions. How could we lose with the guidance of you and Professor Sprout? "
She took a few steps towards the chair, seeing that Snape didn't respond, she sat down immediately, and pulled the chair forward: "Professor, what about the grand prize?"
Alice herself is not particularly eager for the Philosopher's Stone, but it is different now that she has won the prize, and it is her right to get the prize.
"Because it's powder, the organizing committee split it into two." Snape took out an amber necklace, "For the convenience of preservation, the powder is inside this amber."
"You can take it out yourself if you need it."
"I'll discuss it with them." Alice happily took the necklace, not to mention, the necklace is pretty pretty.
She looked at the necklace carefully, and suddenly thought of something, and asked, "By the way, Professor, what happened to cancel the game?"
"Explosion." Snape said in a low voice, "The prize depository was blasted open by magic, and all the prizes were taken away."
Alice looked up in disbelief: "Then what are these prizes?"
"The organizing committee bought insurance with Gringotts in advance." Snape didn't change his face. "The delay of a week is also because Gringotts is dealing with Nick Flamel."
In short, I don't know what price I paid. A week later, Gringotts paid all the prizes including the Philosopher's Stone as agreed.
"Has the prisoner been caught?" Alice was a little frightened, feeling that the necklace in her hand carried the breath of a prisoner.
"It turns out that our Miss Hall is also afraid." Snape sighed.
Alice was not happy: "Professor, this is your fault. I am still a child, how can you say that about me?"
"Child?" Snape nodded. "Indeed, although you are already 16 years old, and although you will graduate in less than two years, you are still a minor according to the law."
"Yes, that's how it is." Alice shamelessly agreed, "so it's normal for me to be afraid."
"Normal people should be afraid. I'm just surprised, after all, you are usually very brave in every aspect."
Snape was well aware of his oppressive feelings towards the students, and in fact it was intentional.So from a certain level, he is full of admiration for Alice, who is not afraid of any professor.
"Professor, you can't say that." Alice wanted to explain, because she felt that she was described as a fool without a heart.
Snape was too lazy to listen to her nonsense: "Since the problem has been solved, please Alice. Underage. Still a child. Miss Hall, give your dear Potions Professor a peace."
"By the way, remember to close the door when you leave."
……
"So the explosion is too scary." Carrie was originally lying on the bed, but she couldn't help sitting up when she heard the words, "Who is so courageous in so many official competitions organized by countries?"
"I don't know, maybe they are people who lost their minds because of money." Alice couldn't figure it out either.
But logically, someone who can break into the heavily guarded prize depository should have a high level of magic. Would such a person also be short of money?
"Has the prisoner been caught?"
"Professor Snape says not yet."
Carrie shuddered: "It's terrible that this kind of prisoner hasn't been caught yet. Why can't I see the news?"
It is also good to give a reminder to the masses. Now that we are hiding it like this, everyone is not prepared at all.
"The Ministry of Magic and Gringotts also want to save face." Alice could still think of a little bit about the entanglement in it.
The Ministry of Magic of various countries publicized it with great fanfare, Gringotts protected it, and under the watchful eyes of everyone, an explosion came directly and looted all the prizes.
If this is publicized, not only will the prestige of the Ministry of Magic of various countries be greatly reduced, but the reputation of Gringotts will also be affected.
"I see." Carrie nodded. "Let's not talk about this horrible topic. How are you going to spend Christmas?"
It was only a month before Christmas, and she knew that Alice had the habit of planning ahead, and planned to make an appointment for Christmas first.
"How can I live?" Alice asked back, "The old rules, stay in school."
"Huh? I still want to invite you to my house." Carrie was extremely disappointed. "I heard from my mother that my father prepared a super big Christmas tree this year."
"Next time." Alice explained the reason, "The main reason is that I am already in the sixth grade, and there are only two Christmases I can spend at Hogwarts."
"Just because of that?" Carrie couldn't believe it.
"Because of this."
