Study Days at Hogwarts

  Chapter 82 Sequelae

  The consequences of the Weasley brothers' night outing are beginning to emerge.

Filch seemed to be sure that the students who visited that night were from Gryffindor. Every time a Gryffindor student passed by him, Filch would always stare at the passing students with staring eyes. A Gryffindor student, as if trying to find out the guy who played tricks on him that night.

  Filch's strange behavior made all the Gryffindor students feel baffled.

  Compared to the clueless Filch, Snape had obviously found the culprit of the night outing.

  Friday's Potions class, Albert dared to pat his chest to assure that he heard Snape say the words of nocturnal travel and confinement to the Weasley brothers.

  Obviously, Snape had confirmed that the students who fooled himself and Filch that night were the twin brothers in front of him.

   For this reason, Snape casually found an excuse, deducted five points from Fred and George, and cleared their potion scores for today.

  No way, neither of them could resist the "Snape's gaze" coming from behind. The boiled potion for treating scabies was full of mistakes, and one sip would probably kill a person with poison.

Before get out of class was over, in addition to the normal homework, Snape asked Fred and George to write an extra report on the preparation of the scabies potion, which was not less than five inches, on the grounds that the preparation of the scabies potion was terrible. .

  The students in the classroom all cast sympathetic looks at the Weasley twins, because the Weasley twins weren't the only ones who were terrible at mixing potions.

   "How did Snape know?" George was very puzzled. They were sure that Snape had confirmed that they were the students who visited the castle that night.

   It is estimated that there is no evidence and no one can be caught, so Snape adopted this deliberately disgusting method to punish the Weasley brothers for their night parade.

   "Maybe, he can read minds." Albert said without hesitation: "There must be magic that can see through other people's minds, and Snape might use it. Don't you think he seems to be able to see if others are lying?"

  Albert certainly knew how Snape saw through their minds, but he would not tell Fred and George directly, otherwise he would not be able to explain it to them.

   "Can this kind of thing really be done?" Lee Jordan expressed doubts.

   "I don't know, but I think there should be such a possibility!" Albert reminded. "In the past few days, you all have to restrain yourself. I heard that Filch is now patrolling the castle all day and night, and he can't wait to catch the students who swim at night and hang them from the ceiling to dry salted fish.

"You will become dried salted fish." Fred rolled his eyes angrily, but he still agreed with Albert's kind reminder that he would not go on night tours for the time being. Committing crimes against the wind is obviously a dead end, especially Provoking Filch directly is never a good thing.

  However, the two firmly believed that Filch would not try to force them into such a mess as last time when they went on a night out next time.

   "By the way, when did you discover this secret passage?" Lee Jordan followed the Weasley twins through the secret passage and asked in surprise.

   "Of course it was discovered that night." Fred attributed the discovery of the secret passage to the last night tour.

  Albert naturally knew the reason, but he wouldn't reveal it, but just silently memorized the location of the secret passage.

  On the way back to the common room, Fred suddenly remembered something, and said to Albert with a serious face: "Lend us your paper on potions for treating scabies last time."

"I remember that Snape gave you an E (excellent)." Lee Jordan did not forget the paper on potions for treating scabies that Snape took away before class, and returned the grade to Albert after reading it. , only gave an E, other than that, nothing was written on the parchment.

  However, when Snape returned the treatise on potions for treating scabies to Albert, he did not forget to warn him not to try it in Potions class, otherwise he would be threatened with confinement. "

  Of course, Albert completely ignored Snape's threats and verbally promised that he would do nothing.

   "I heard that Snape never gave an O (excellent) to a Gryffindor student's work."

"It's normal. Snape is a master of potions. The potions we made must be terrible in his eyes." Albert didn't care at all, and before giving the parchment to George, he reminded: "Don't just copy Otherwise, even I will be unlucky together."

  Fred took the parchment that Albert handed over, and said with a smile: "We will pay attention."

   "By the way, those are the ratings." Li Qiaodan asked suddenly.

"If the grade is qualified, it will usually be O, E, and A, which correspond to excellent, good, and passing." Albert thought for a while and explained to Li Qiaodan briefly, "If the grade is unqualified, it will be P, D, T ..."

   "If you get a T in your homework, you will be expelled from school." Fred interrupted Albert and said mysteriously.

   "Why?" Li Qiaodan was even more puzzled.

   "T is extremely poor."

   "No, T means troll, which means that your brain is similar to that of a troll." George said solemnly, "You know, Hogwarts does not accept troll students."

   Albert couldn't help but rolled his eyes and said: "By the way, remember to call me when you go on a night tour that weekend."

   "Are you going to go on a night tour too?" Lee Jordan seemed to hear something incredible.

   "Yes, I'm going to go shopping too. As you know, students are not allowed to enter the restricted area." Albert said mysteriously, "If you want to borrow books from the restricted area, you need to use special means."

   "What book do you want to borrow?" Fred asked curiously.

   "The Book of Spells by Miranda Goshawk."

   "Why, I always feel that the title of this book is very familiar?" Fred murmured.

   "Stupid, the book we use in the Charms class is "Standard Spells, Beginner" written by Miranda Gosack." Li Qiaodan said angrily.

   "Fred is really an idiot." George had such an expression.

   "Then you must be an idiot too, who made us twin brothers?"

   "Both are idiots." Li Qiaodan muttered, "Isn't this set of books the textbooks we use? Why are they in the restricted area?"

"The "Standard Spells" series we are using now is actually a castrated version. There are a total of seven books in this set, and there will be one in each semester. In fact, the original name of this book is "The Book of Spells." Albert explained, " Some of the spells have been removed from the books we use now. I once wrote to the owner of Lihen Bookstore, but he told me that this book is no longer available because it was discontinued decades ago, and now Only the revised set we are using is being sold."
