After stabbing my ex-boyfriend, I went traveling
Chapter 271 HP (95)
The newly appointed Hagrid failed miserably in the first Care of Magical Creatures class.
Fortunately, no little wizard was injured in the accident.
Otherwise, Hagrid will become the fastest-laid-off teacher since the founding of Hogwarts.
But his current situation is not very good, because Yang Mei helped him solve the problem single-handedly, but he suspected that Yang Mei killed Buckbeak.
Yang Mei: Tsk! Oh, yes, yes, he should have just killed the bird! So annoying!
Being wrongly accused was not a big deal, but Yang Mei wanted to make a big deal out of it.
Because of the Selwyn family's intervention, Hagrid is facing the risk of being laid off.
Although Hagrid has not been officially removed from his position, he has been in fear these days.
Hagrid: Well, I'd rather not be a teacher.
Dumbledore understood that the key to this matter lay with Yang Mei. As long as he gave in, Hagrid would not have to be laid off.
Dumbledore wanted to smooth things over again, so he asked Hagrid to apologize and thank Yang Mei.
Hagrid always did whatever Dumbledore told him to do, so he apologized to Yang Mei very readily.
"If apologies are useful, what's the point of having laws?" Yang Mei looked at the two men, "If the Hippogriff had attacked me or Draco, then there's no doubt that Hagrid would have been finished as a teacher, and Buckbeak would have died.
Why is this? Because our family is powerful.
But you should feel lucky now, because the one who was almost attacked was Potter. Well, everyone in the wizarding world knows that both his parents are dead, and you also have some feelings for him.
He should be easy to fool. All you need to do is apologize. You don't have to pay a single gold galleon in compensation.
Mr. Hagrid, aren't you worried that the Potters will come to you to demand an explanation in the dead of night?
Hagrid has a physique as strong as a bear, but his mental defenses seem to be made of paper.
Yang Mei wasn't interested in seeing the tough guy's emotional breakdown online, so she stated her demands directly.
"The Hippogriff can be spared, and Hagrid's teaching position can be retained.
But I don't need to say much about Rubeus Hagrid's teaching ability.
Make Care of Magical Creatures an elective, and allow students who do not wish to continue taking the course to take another elective instead."
There was no reason for Dumbledore to refuse such a simple request.
Yang Mei didn't know whether others were happy about this matter or not.
But Draco was very happy.
“In the first class, he dared to let everyone face such a dangerous magical creature.
The key is if he has the ability to control it.
He did not.
They have neither the ability to control nor the ability to protect students.
I only have one life left, I don't want to get lost in his class, otherwise the Malfoy family will be without an heir!"
Draco spoke very logically, like a zebra.
"Yes, yes, you are right. So you see, I am very considerate. I negotiated a very useful condition with Dumbledore." Yang Mei urged him to eat quickly, as the shrimp dumplings would not taste good if they were cold.
Just then someone from Gryffindor shouted with a newspaper: "Someone saw him! Someone saw him!"
"Who is it? Who did you see?"
"Sirius Black!" Seamus Finnigan put the newspaper in his hand on the table for everyone to see.
"Duff Town, isn't it far from Hogwarts?" Someone knew this place.
His words immediately caused everyone's concern.
"He's not really going to come to Hogwarts, is he? Wouldn't that put us in danger?"
"We have no grudge against him, so he wouldn't harm anyone casually, right? Besides, there are so many Dementors outside Hogwarts, he will definitely be discovered by the Dementors as soon as he arrives."
"Those Muggles had no grudge against him more than a decade ago, but he still killed them all..."
The same newspaper was on the Slytherin table.
"He doesn't look good." Yang Mei glanced at the newspaper. "Anyway, I hope he remains committed and still looks down on the Black family like he did more than a decade ago. After all, only one person can take the position of the head of the Black family, and I hope that person can only be Regulus Black."
"He has been expelled from the Black family for many years. How can he compete for the position of head of the family?" Draco curled his lips. "Some people are just eccentric. They despise the rich and love the poor. Everything outside smells good, but their home smells bad. Even Azkaban is a paradise on earth in his eyes. How can such a person look down on the Black family!"
Yang Mei looked at him with interest: "Have you been learning your tongue from Severus recently? Your venomous tongue has improved!"
Draco was very calm: "I have an amazing talent in potions, and the professor of potions is my godfather. I have to make good use of this resource. You always disappear without a trace, and I know you are either in the Chamber of Secrets or the Room of Requirement, so I have to find something to do, so I go to the dean's office when I have nothing to do."
"Severus doesn't bother you?"
"He is my godfather. Even if he is annoyed with me, what can he do to me?" Draco said he was fearless.
"I admire you so much! You are no longer the ignorant boy who was frightened by Severus's coffin face!"
……
It was not known whether Draco really loved potions so much that he was addicted to studying them, or whether he was addicted to provoking Snape's sensitive nerves. Anyway, he went to Snape's office again that night, and luckily met the newly appointed Professor Lupin.
When Draco entered, he saw Lupin standing not far from the door. It seemed that he was only allowed to take two steps forward after entering.
"Professor Lupin, are you here to see our dean?" Draco asked casually, "Do you need me to call him for you?"
Lupin declined: "I have already told Professor Snape in advance, he knows I will come, so I will just wait here."
There are many hidden secrets in this, and he naturally wouldn't tell Draco.
"Okay." Draco ignored him and strolled into Snape's Potions Studio.
Snape didn't even need to turn around to know that it was Draco.
In Hogwarts, even Dumbledore was not allowed to enter Snape's Potions Studio without permission. But Yang Mei and Draco, the two half-grown teenagers, entered here as if they were their own home and were very casual.
Fortunately, they never did anything rash and could provide a lot of help to Snape, otherwise Snape would have kicked them out long ago.
"A-choo!" Draco quickly covered his mouth and nose with a handkerchief. "This pungent smell... Godfather, are you making wolfsbane potion?"
Snape was stirring the potion in the crucible by himself. The dark liquid was creepy to look at.
Wolfsbane Potion is a magical potion that can alleviate the symptoms of werewolf transformation and prevent the werewolf from losing his mind after transformation.
After drinking it, a werewolf can remain sane during the night of transformation, but will only turn into an ordinary, listless wolf.
But wolfsbane potion cannot cure people who are transformed into werewolves after being bitten.
This potion was invented by Damocles in the second half of the twentieth century and was later further improved by Severus Snape.
Snape was awarded the Order of Merlin, Second Class.
"For no reason, Godfather, why are you studying the wolfsbane potion again? Do you have any new ideas for improvement?" Draco said as he set up a crucible.
This time Snape spoke up: "Someone with this little hairy problem asked me to make a wolfsbane potion for him, so I made some."
"It won't be Dumbledore again, he's the only one who likes to enslave you to work!" Draco said angrily, "Besides, didn't Phil give you advice last time? If something like this happens again, you have to make him pay!"
Snape looked at the angry boy helplessly and said, "How do you know I didn't ask for it this time?"
Draco blinked twice. "So you want money this time? How much?"
"Probably, a Hogwarts professor's annual salary." Snape's deep voice sounded like a gorgeous cello.
Draco rubbed his chin and thought for a while: "This is not much... You are a potion master! Okay, okay, being a potion professor at Hogwarts has continuously taught you to endure hardships. As long as you are willing to endure hardships, there will be endless hardships.
It was understandable in the past, but you’ve thought it through recently, so why not just quit?
I believe that even if you sit at home and don't go anywhere, there will still be many people who ask you to make potions, and you can earn more than at Hogwarts."
Snape was getting a headache from his nagging: "Okay, now shut up and make your beauty potion."
"How do you know I'm going to make a beauty potion?"
"I don't know, but it has always been a necessity in your family. I guess it will win."
"...Okay." Draco found that it was indeed the case.
The Malfoy family is so sophisticated that they would never allow their people to be lacking in appearance.
As human beings, it is inevitable that we may have bad moods and not get enough rest. This is when beauty potions are needed!
Honest and trustworthy, proven to be useful.
Draco had quite a few stored in his dormitory.
"Oh, by the way, I almost forgot, what's going on with that thing outside? It's standing at the door like a door god... I guess it's called a door god, I heard Phil mention this term." While Draco was talking, his hands kept moving and he started making potions.
"Professor Lupin doesn't like to sit down. Did you interfere and ask him to sit down?" Snape asked in a bad tone.
"No, I'm not a nosy person by nature." Draco could see that his godfather didn't like Lupin outside.
Is there anyone who doesn't like sitting? That's ridiculous.
……
Just as Lupin was about to fall asleep standing at the door, in the Potions Workshop, Snape finally bottled the wolfsbane potion in the crucible.
"Give this to the man outside." Snape handed the bottle to Draco.
Oh, so this medicine is for him.
"Could it be that the one with the furry little problem is Professor Lupin?" Draco was not a fool. Wolfsbane Potion was such an important thing that if the person concerned did not come to pick it up in person, Snape would have to deliver it personally.
A little hairy problem, Wolfsbane Potion.
"That Lupin is a werewolf?!" Draco said seriously.
Snape evaded the question: "Who knows?"
"It's time for me to go back to the dormitory. See you later, Godfather." Draco walked out with three bottles, two of which were beauty potions he had just made.
Unlike the wolfsbane potion, which cannot even contain sugar, the beauty potion can be made into a variety of flavors and can be called a liquid version of the weird-flavored beans.
Today Draco made grape flavor. The dreamy purple in the transparent glass bottle formed a sharp contrast with the abyss-like black of the wolfsbane potion.
Draco walked up to Lupin, and Lupin forced himself to open his eyes wide.
"Finally healed?"
Draco calmly handed him the bottle of wolfsbane potion and said, "Go back, Professor Lupin. It's late."
Lupin clenched the bottle in his hand: "Thank you." Then he turned and left.
Draco then left Snape's office and returned to the dormitory.
"Phil phil phil!" Draco's face had "I have big melons" written all over it.
"What's wrong? What's wrong? What's wrong?" Yang Mei fully cooperated with his performance, and even handed Draco a glass of water after he sat down.
After Draco finished drinking, he said again: "Please start your speech."
Draco nodded solemnly: "Phil, you may not believe this, but there are werewolves in the Hogwarts castle!"
Yang Mei didn't expect him to reveal any explosive news, but she didn't expect that what he said was so explosive.
"There is a werewolf in the castle? Who told you? Did you see it? You can't fool people with false news." Yang Mei fell leisurely on her bed, leaning sideways with her arm supported, in a rather bold posture.
"Hey! What nonsense am I talking about for no reason." Draco also changed to a more relaxed posture, "I just went to my godfather's office, and when I walked in, I saw Professor Lupin standing at the door. My godfather was making potions in his studio, and he didn't even let Professor Lupin sit down.
I asked him, and he said he didn't like to sit still. Listen, he was fooling me."
"Remus Lupin...and then what?" Yang Mei lay in a long line on the bed.
"And then? Then I saw my godfather making wolfsbane potion. Someone hired him to make it with a year's salary as a Hogwarts professor. But the potion was finally given to Professor Lupin, and I handed it to him personally." Draco felt like he had turned into a famous detective in an instant. "Do you think there could be any other possibility? He must be the werewolf. He needs the wolfsbane potion to help him solve the problem of losing his mind when he transforms into a werewolf on a full moon night."
"It's inappropriate for a werewolf to be in school, right?" Yang Mei raised her eyebrows. "Dumbledore really wants our lives more and more every year. He's not the headmaster, he's a living devil!"
"Uh...if he doesn't stay in Hogwarts for a full year, can he get a year's salary?" Draco asked hesitantly.
Yang Mei was speechless: "Are you dreaming? He hasn't worked for a full year, but he still wants a year's salary. Who does he think he is?"
