The Emerald at Hogwarts

Chapter 27 Why Snape Was Like That

In the auditorium, the Gryffindor table was already full of people.Ada first served a bowl of steaming vegetable soup in her place.After taking a mouthful of vegetable soup, Ada's body, which had been stiffened by the cold wind, finally recovered.

"How was your training today?" Angelina asked.Today's weather is very cold, so she and Alia didn't go to watch the training.

"It's a pity that you two didn't go today." Before Ada could speak, Fred said first.What he said would be more convincing if he could put down the sausage in his hand.

"We played a friendly match with the official players, half-court offense and defense." George said while filling his plate with food.

Angelina and Alia looked a little regretful, they turned their heads to look at Ada, and asked, "Is what the two of them said true?"

"Unfortunately, what they said is true. The two of them lost the friendly match. If you went, you might win." Ada couldn't bear to make things worse, so she put down the food in her hands to comfort the two, " But don't be too sorry, Charlie said that such friendly matches will be held again in the future."

After hearing Ada's words, the two little girls' faces improved a little.It's just that the fierceness with which the two cut the beef exudes great resentment.

Charlie did say that, the current Gryffindor players are not very good, and Charlie has no hope of competing for the Quidditch Cup.

He pinned his hopes on the next generation. The twins, Angelina and Alia are all good seedlings, worth cultivating.

After the sumptuous dinner, the group returned to the noisy common room. Under the request of the twins to combine work and rest, Ada did not perform additional exercises.

Fred and George were wrestling with their homework, as if the homework book had something to do with them.And Ada has already finished her homework, which is a piece of cake for Ada whose study life is even more miserable.

She took out a copy of "Cooking Your Glory" from her schoolbag and read it. Potions class was coming again, and Ada had to prepare in advance.

"How have you offended Snape lately?" said George, looking up from his homework.He saw the potion book in Ada's hand, so he asked this question.

"I don't know. I really haven't contradicted him recently. I just do what he says. I'm so honest." Ada didn't look up. She was reading about the effect of a potion material.

"Why do you think you are so miserable? We have so many students this year, but you are the only one chosen by Snape." Fred also said, "You might as well go to the "Daily Prophet" to participate in the lottery draw!"

Ada was a little moved by what she said, maybe she would be extremely happy, and if she won a wave of awards from the "Daily Prophet", her dream of getting rid of poverty and becoming rich would come true.

"If only Professor McGonagall could be like Snape!" George sighed.

In fact, Professor McGonagall is also quite defensive, but she is not as obvious as Snape did, and her love for students is always in the dark.

"In that case, Professor McGonagall won't be her. This is the consciousness of the vice-principal of the school." Ada said, "It's not something that Snape, a headmaster, can match at all."

"It would be great if we could pull Slytherin off the throne of the House Cup this year, Snape's face must be very exciting!" The twins thought imaginatively, and there was a look of fascination on their faces, as if they had already seen the events of that day. advent.

"Go to sleep, there is everything in the dream." Ada yawned, waved goodbye to the twins, and returned to the dormitory without looking back.

Friday afternoon was torture for the first-year Gryffindors. The weekend was coming soon, and the weekend was just around the corner, but they were not happy at all. It was all because of Snape and potions The shadow brought to them by class.

But fortunately, Gryffindor has such an "outstanding" T as Ida, she can firmly pull Snape's hatred, and Snape's output targets are mainly concentrated on her.

Basically, it can be said that in the Potions class, Ada shared most of Snape's firepower, and enjoyed Snape's "favor" exclusively, and the poison spray received by other Gryffindors was not even a drizzle.

Since entering November, for some unknown reason, Snape made things difficult for Ada even more serious.The questions he asked Ada were no longer limited to the textbooks, and he would often ask Ada some super-topic questions for Ada to answer.

If Ada couldn't answer these questions, she was bound to receive a sneer from Snape.As long as Ada dared to speak out against Snape's behavior, or even showed the slightest bit of dissatisfaction, then all that awaited her was the result of deducting points.

In the dim potions classroom, the lion cubs came early, and Ada and the twins sat obediently in their seats.

Ada shrunk her body and tried to make herself less conspicuous. She didn't want to be deducted points by Snape anymore, so she chose Congxin.She couldn't twist her thighs with her arms right now, so it wasn't shameful to coax Snape.

As soon as the time for class arrived, the classroom door was opened.Snape "floated" all the way from the last row of the classroom to the podium table.With a sallow complexion and greasy black hair, he looked at all the students in the classroom.

I don't know how much shampoo he uses to wash his hair?How long can I last after washing my hair?Ada cursed in her heart, she was hiding behind the twins like a quail now.

I have to say that Snape's eyes were really good. Even though the classroom was a bit dark and Ida was hiding behind the twins, Snape still found her right away.

His gaze stayed on Fred and George, and he seemed to have seen the "little quail" behind them through their bodies.

There is no need for Ada to continue to cat, since it has been discovered, let the storm come more violently...

"Miss Drizzt!" The aloof Snape started his routine question, "If I need to make a shrinking potion, what materials do I need?"

This question was asked in the potions class last time, and Ada was not able to give an answer at that time.After class, Ada went to the library to find out the formula of this potion.

"Chopped daisy roots, peeled shrunken figs, thinly sliced ​​caterpillars, a drop of mouse bile, and a little leech juice, Professor." Ada said the recipe she knew.

For Ada's behavior of finding out the answer after class, Snape was still very satisfied in his heart, but he would not show it, and he never gave Ada any good looks.

At the beginning of each class, I asked Ada because Ada's night parade behavior increased his workload, so Snape decided to find something for her to do, so that she would not have to go out for a night parade when she was too energetic at night, and he had to follow him. She cleans up the mess behind her.

Snape wanted to make things difficult, so naturally he didn't just ask one question. He continued to ask: "If I still want to make a beauty potion, what do I need?"

It's coming, what should come is still coming, it's still the familiar formula, it's still the familiar taste, and sure enough, after the forced "review" of the questions in the previous class, the super-outline questions will come on time.

"I don't know, Professor." Ada replied, her tone was as calm as possible, without any emotion.

"It seems that our Miss Know-it-all is nothing more than that." Snape's sarcasm arrived late, "Maybe one day when you lose your pretty face, you will be able to remember this potion with your heart."

Ada clenched her hands under the desk, trying to distract herself, trying not to let Snape's "trick" succeed.

"I can only ask some simple questions about your brain, which is not much stronger than a troll." Snape decided to ask the last question. After all, there are still many students waiting for the class. For what medicine?"

"Reminiscence Potion and Veritaserum, Professor." Ada answered the question mechanically.She just read The Feather of the Soundless Bird yesterday, and this time the question just hit the muzzle.

"Miss Drizzt, you have finally learned how to mobilize your brain. You are already smarter than the trolls. It's really gratifying." After Snape gave a bad comment, today's lesson officially started.
"Turn the book to page 87, here's what you have today."

There was a sound of flipping books in the classroom, and Ada, who was wearing a pain mask, also let out a sigh of relief. There is no deduction today, and she is worthy of Professor McGonagall's love.

While flipping through the books, the twins gave Ida a thumbs up, indicating that she did a good job today.

Although these questions were a bit unreasonable, thanks to Snape, Ida had mastered a lot of potion formulas, which could be regarded as a blessing in disguise.

Ada is not the kind of person who doesn't know how to cherish blessings, but she really has no blessings, and whoever wants them will take them away.

Snape's act of cutting flesh with a soft knife really hit Ida's seven inches, which made her very helpless, and Ida didn't know when such a day would be the end.

Ada, who couldn't bear it anymore, now only hoped that Snape would show mercy and give her a happy life.
