The Legend of Harry Potter Schoolmaster

Chapter 126 Staying in School for Labor (Second Change)

On Saturday afternoon, while going to the library, Jon returned the "Guide to Advanced Transformation" to Mrs. Pince.

Back in the dining room for dinner, an owl appears and throws a small box to Jon.

Jon took the box and pocketed it.

...

After dinner, he walked to Professor Snape's office.

In the past few years since he came to Hogwarts, he had to visit Snape's office almost every year due to some accidents, and Jon even got used to it.

After he knocked lightly on the door, Snape's cold voice came from inside: "Please come in!"

Jon hurried in: "Professor Snape!"

At the same time, he glanced at the glass bottles of various colors on the shelf...

"You're here." Snape raised his head, glared at him, and then shifted his gaze to the cauldron again: "That toad in the barrel, get rid of it!"

Only then did Jon realize that there was a large wooden barrel in the middle of the office.

"Crack... croak... croak... the sound keeps coming from the barrel."

I walked over and saw that there were densely packed toads inside, strange-looking toads, because they all had horns on their heads...

"Bohemian horned toads!" Snape ordered coldly, "Hart, take out their hearts and livers..."

While talking, Snape threw over a silver knife.

"Yes, Professor!" Jon nodded, picked up the knife, looked it over carefully, and finally put it back on the table.

Then Jon took out of his pocket the little box the owl had brought him at supper.

As early as Tuesday, when he received the notice of the content of the labor in school, Jon wrote to Eric and asked him to buy two scalpels and a box of blades and send them to himself.

After all, based on his experience with Bohemia's long-horned toad, this kind of creature has a thick outer skin... It is not easy for ordinary knives to pierce it.

Now, he has removed a scalpel and installed a blade.

There is no doubt that this tool, which he has already mastered, is obviously much more comfortable to use than ordinary silver knives.

Easily grabbed a toad from the barrel with his left hand—

"Quack..."

Hearing a scream, Jon easily stabbed the scalpel into the toad's stomach, and then cut open the toad's abdomen lightly.

It took more than ten seconds to identify the location of the heart and liver, took them out, and put them into two glass bottles; Jon threw the dead toad into another empty wooden barrel, And then took out another...

It was a bit rusty at the beginning, but after dissecting a dozen or so, the movements became proficient!

Snape looked up in surprise, watching Jon's skillful knife stabbing into the toad's belly; watching him easily take out the required medicinal materials; watching him take out a somewhat blunt surgical blade , and then put on a new one...

...

Only an hour and a half later, the wooden barrel that was empty before was already full of toad corpses.

The other barrel, which was full before, was empty.

"I think I'm done, Professor!" Jon stood up, picking up two glass vials filled with horned toad livers and hearts.

"Put it on my shelf!" Snape said calmly, his eyes still fixed on the cauldron in front of him.

Jon followed the initials on the medicinal material shelf and placed the two medicinal materials respectively.

When he turned around, he heard Snape say softly, "Those... blades you just had? Show me!"

Snape's voice was not as indifferent as before, but rather curious.

"Yes, Professor!" Jon quickly took out another scalpel from his pocket, and at the same time took out a new blade, and handed it to Snape.

Looking at Snape, it took several minutes to install the guardian blade on the scalpel jerky...

"Fragile, very easy to break...but also very sharp!" Snape stared at the scalpel in his hand, as if muttering to himself; then, he gently wiped the blade on his finger wipe.

With almost no effort, the blade easily cut a deep wound in his hand, and blood gushed out little by little.

"Reparo!" Snape put down the scalpel, and at the same time took out his wand with the other hand, aiming at the injured finger.

After almost ten seconds, the wound on the finger disappeared little by little...

Then, Snape pointed his wand at Jon's hands again, and said softly, "Scourgify!"

The remaining blood on the hands, as well as the internal organs of the toad between the nails, fell off little by little, and the hands became clean in an instant.

"Professor!" Jon said before Snape could speak, "I have two such knives. If you don't mind, the one in your hand can be put here first!"

Snape narrowed his eyes, but said nothing.

Jon quickly took out the blade box, poured out a dozen brand new scalpel blades, and placed them on Snape's desk.

Snape still didn't speak, he just waved his wand...the scalpel and blade flew into his drawer together.

...

"Now, do me another favor!" Snape said coldly, pointing to the cauldron in front of him.

"Professor, what potion are you preparing?" Jon asked tentatively.

"Potion of Wolfsbane!" Snape said coldly, "A certain werewolf still needs my help in order to stay sane on a full moon night... Huh, if it wasn't for Dumbledore's request..."

This is not the first time Jon has seen Snape's wolfbane potion, but the last time Snape wanted to hint to him that there was a werewolf in the school, and this time, he completely showed almost all the steps.

"For some advanced potions..." Snape said slowly.

Jon pricked up his ears.

"The difficulty in their preparation does not lie in the process or the handling of materials..." Snape paused, and continued: "It lies in, the last step of handling."

"Even if it is the same potion, different wizards have to deal with it differently... It depends on the wizard to explore, and it needs a little inspiration; it can never be obtained just by reading books and asking for advice..."

"So I have always believed that potions require talent, and the kind of idiots I often encounter will never be able to achieve real results in potions!" Snape sneered: "And this last step, we Call it a sequence of potion... For any high-level potion, if you can't find your sequence, then you will never be able to successfully formulate it!"

Jon nodded thoughtfully.

At the same time, Black smoke was rising from Snape's cauldron...

Jon raised his head and asked a little boldly: "Professor Snape...can I be confined by you a few more times in the future?"

Snape glanced at him coldly, and said sarcastically, "It's up to you...if you're willing to come here and do some dirty work like today!"

"Once a week!" After a pause, he added.
