Hogwarts Study Panel

Chapter 14.14: The Liver Emperor's Childhood Form

"Oh, what a diligent child! Of course, that's no problem, but..."

Professor Sprout placed a box of hazelnut chocolates in Sheehan's palm, then waved his wand.
The flowers, grass, and dirt that had been on Sheen disappeared instantly.

“Every year, some buds want to take root in the greenhouse, but few people can endure repetitive and arduous work.”

Professor Sprout tilted his head slightly, a hint of amusement appearing in his gentle eyes.
"I think I can tell you a story."

"Professor, can we talk about it another time?"

Bruce, standing to the side, was already blushing, which made Sheen look at him with a hint of curiosity.

“Yes, Mr. Dickinson.”

Professor Sprout's smile grew even warmer.

Leon and Pistol, who were hiding behind the nursery, burst out laughing.

Hey! You two!

Bruce seemed to have matured completely.

"Oh, did I laugh? Sorry, I can't help it when I think about people scrambling out of the greenhouse..."

Leon laughed even louder.

“Pister, do you remember his sleep-talking?”

"Hit-me-not, geranium, save me, devil vine!"

The slightly chubby Hufflepuff senior imitated in a憨厚 (honest and simple) manner.

Everyone present chuckled softly, and the atmosphere became lighthearted.

"Okay, okay, I admit that greenhouses are dangerous and fascinating, and of course, really tiring."

Bruce raised his hand in surrender, saying helplessly.

"That's why very few wizards can stick with it for so long."

He was looking at Sheen intently as he said this, his face full of seriousness.

"Ah."

Sheen responded.
"I want to try."

His voice was soft, yet it carried a noticeable stubbornness.

……

The greenhouse has always been short-staffed. Compared to the direct and effective spells, the fun and lively transfiguration, and the thrilling Quidditch,
Herbalism has always only attracted hardworking Hufflepuffs.

However, even the hardworking and kind Hufflepuffs won't stay rooted in the soil forever.
Not to mention touching dangerous plants.

Therefore, Professor Sprout agreed to Sheehan's request.

The way she looked at Sheehan was no different from how she looked at the once passionate Hufflepuffs.

There was some appreciation, some joy, and also some helplessness regarding the possible future outcome.

In the corridor outside the greenhouse.

A long, blue quill pen floated before Sheen; it was a magical alchemical creation.

Simply place the quill pen vertically on the paper, and it will automatically begin taking shorthand notes.

Sheen only bought one, mainly to help him organize his thoughts and jot down inspirations.

By the way, stationery is really expensive in the magical world; this quill pen cost Sheen a full 10 siscos.

But Sheen gritted his teeth and bought it anyway.
No matter how tough things get, you can't let studying suffer.
Sheen thought.

[Step 1: Understanding how to process all materials used in scabies medication]

The quill pen made a "shush" sound on the parchment, and Sheen wrote down his current goal.

Professor Sprout has agreed to his request.
Just now, Bruce demonstrated to him the key points for identifying dried nettles and how to process them.
Next time, perhaps he could inquire about the handling of other materials, and he thought Professor Sprout wouldn't refuse.

Once you understand how to handle the materials, the next step is practice.
You can't learn about heat control and stirring from books; you have to experience it yourself.

But once he succeeds, he can rely on the panel to grind.

The plan works.

Sheen put the quill pen into his bag, and heard Bruce's teasing voice in his ear.

"I remember in our first herbalism class, the distinction between mature white dictamnus was quite a challenge for many wizards,"

He watched with interest as Sheehan took notes. "Looks like you'll have a lot to show in the next herbalism class."

Professor Sprout wouldn't hesitate to award extra points to young wizards who had started learning early.

Does it add points?
Sheen didn't pay much attention.

The extra points won't help him get a scholarship.

Professor McGonagall said that the criteria for scholarship evaluation are determined by the principal, who will make a comprehensive decision based on the student's academic progress and professors' evaluations.

Headmaster Dumbledore is certainly fair and wise.

Sheehan believed that as long as he met the standards, Headmaster Dumbledore would not be stingy with 600 Galleons.

It was he who approved his scholarship application without hesitation.

If it were Principal Black or someone else, Sheen would have to grind for the Azkaban set and borrow money from the dark wizard.

He was deeply impressed by the legacy of Hogwarts.
A popular saying in it is:

"Voldemort was terrible because he had personally killed hundreds of people."

"Hmm, what about the second day?"

Sheen's thoughts drifted; in the orphanage, everyone was good at daydreaming.
Sheen was in the same state before the panel was activated and he could only lie weakly in bed.

It was then that he realized that some silences are not because there is nothing to say, but because no one cares.

All of this changed dramatically after the owl smashed the drafty window.

Therefore, Sheen cherishes the opportunity to learn magic, and even if it's just trash, he'll work his way up to legendary status.

"Oh, you probably haven't realized the importance of the Academy Cup yet."
But believe me, this is very important.

Although we don't mind the auditorium at the annual gala being filled with flags from other colleges,
But Hufflepuff's yellow and black color scheme is clearly better, isn't it?

Bruce said, a look of longing on his face.

"Ah."

Sheehan nodded, and Bruce then noticed that the young wizard beside him was Ravenclaw.

He gave a dry laugh:
"Ha, I mean, blue and cyan are also very nice."

"The yellow and black color looks great."

Sheen said earnestly.

There wasn't much time left before the first class in the afternoon, and Sheen shoved the hazelnut chocolate into her senior's hand.
They then turned onto the stairs leading to the History of Magic classroom.

"Thank you, Bruce. Goodbye."

Only his soft voice remained in the corridor.

“A fine little wizard. It’s hard to imagine he’s not Hufflepuff.”

Leon watched Sheen's disappearing figure and chuckled softly.

"I don't know who said it: Professor Sprout..."

"do not talk……"

Leon's face darkened.

Mr. Pister, standing to the side, smiled knowingly, as if he were used to such things.

……

Having left the greenhouse, Sheen now had to figure out how to counter Professor Binns' hypnosis.

Despite various unfounded rumors, the Scream Shack has never been haunted.
But Hogwarts is indeed the most haunted place in Britain.

There is no doubt about this, because of these damp islands,
It is said that you can see or sense more ghosts than anywhere else in the world.

In the world of Harry Potter, ghosts are also called phantoms.

It was a transparent, three-dimensional image of the deceased wizards, who continued to exist in the world of the living.

Muggles cannot become ghosts after they die, and no wise wizard would choose to do so.

Only those wizards who "die with their eyes open" refuse to enter the other world, whether out of fear, guilt, or fascination with the material world.

Professor Binns' obsession was reading aloud from the textbook.

Sheen confirmed.
