Hogwarts starts with stealing power

Chapter 87 It’s all Malfoy’s fault for not joining Slytherin

Lin Xia stood up and said without thinking: "Put a piece of bat liver into the crucible."

Snape asked expressionlessly: "What should be paid attention to when dealing with pufferfish eyes, and how many should be put in?"

Lin Xia: "You need to put three pufferfish eyes. They need to be ground into medium-fine powder during processing. The amount of powder is often confused. In addition, it is also important to deal with the toxins on the pufferfish eyes. They need to be separated during separation. Used..."

Snape waited quietly for her to finish, and then said coldly: "Did I ask you to tell me how to deal with the poison in the pufferfish eyes? It's superfluous, and Hufflepuff will deduct 1 point!"

Lin Xia immediately received sympathetic looks from many young wizards.

Especially for Gryffindor students, the words "You are so pitiful" are almost always written on their foreheads.

"And you, Draco!" Before Snape could finish, artillery fire was aimed at him, "When Lin Xia was answering, what were you saying underneath, do you want to give some advice to your companions?"

"Oh, you are so kind, why don't you ask her if she needs it? Does the answer obtained by cheating count as your own knowledge? Another 1 point will be deducted from Hufflepuff!"

For the first time, Draco, the heir to the Malfoy family, received sympathetic looks from many young wizards.

Draco:…

I discovered for the first time that being scolded doesn’t seem to be a bad thing?
After finally finishing a Potions class, the little Hufflepuff wizards gathered around Lin Xia and Draco, looking at them worriedly, fearing that they would be "psychologically shadowed" by Professor Snape.

Although Professor Snape was always moody, this time his outburst was more terrifying than the previous ones.

The sensitive little wizard always felt that Professor Snape was angry on purpose this time.

Could it be that Lin Xia and Draco were resented by Snape?

"What are you doing here? Do you want to stay in the potions classroom and do experiments?" A light and arrogant voice came, and the little wizard's face changed drastically.

Professor Snape appeared behind Lin Xia and Draco and casually said: "You two come to my office."

Little Wizard: It's over, it's over, is the professor going to torture them? !

Lin Xia and Draco gave the other little wizards a comforting look, indicating that it was okay, and headed to Snape's office together.

In the office, Snape threw two documents to them expressionlessly.

One is Draco's thesis guidance report, and the other is Lin Xia's thesis guidance report.

Professor Sprout was not familiar with products like facial soap, but his eyes lit up when Lin Xia said that it was a derivative product created while developing scabies potion.

She’s not familiar with facial soap, but she’s familiar with magic potions!

Couldn't we just find Snape, an old acquaintance?

So Snape was reluctantly asked by Professor Sprout to "supervise Lin Xia's thesis".

When Snape received this request, he thought he had heard it wrong.

Supervising Lin Xia’s thesis?
Didn't she just hold a magic wand press conference not long ago?

Where would he get a wand?
When Professor Sprout forwarded the information to him, Snape had to admire his vicious vision.

Lin Xia is indeed a genius, a potion genius with keen intuition like a beast!
Just by helping to research improved scabies potion, you can create another item using the same raw materials and the same data, but using different production methods.

And this kind of item, after his rough verification, has an effectiveness rate of up to 98%!

Damn it, why aren't people like this in Slytherin?

Snape was very sorry that Lin Xia almost joined his laboratory!
He felt that everything had gone haywire since the Malfoy heir went to Hufflepuff instead of Slytherin.

Snape first looked at Draco: "I read your paper, and there are a few questions that are not clearly explained. Keep thinking about it, and then write ten more reports for me."

He then looked at Lin Xia, looked at her deeply, and suddenly said: "Lin Xia, are you interested in joining my laboratory? I can offer you better conditions."

Lin Xia said regretfully: "Thank you, Professor, for your favor, but I have already promised Dean Sprout to cooperate with her herbal garden."

Snape mocked: "A gardener who only knows how to play with flowers and plants, what can she teach you?"

Lin Xia said without being humble or arrogant: "I gained a lot from the dean. Understanding the characteristics of magical plants will help my research."

Snape was silent for a while, then continued: "Your Headmaster asked me to give you some guidance. You have experience in thesis, and the format of facial soap is similar to that of a magnetic wand.

Although it is positioned as a beauty product, it does not need to be as strict as potions, but as an excellent student at Hogwarts, you must be more strict with yourself. You must first write thirty reports to me. "

Lin Xia: "Dean Sprout only needs me to write three articles."

Snape's dark pupils stared at her with a coldness, "You want to disobey me?"

Lin Xia's amber pupils looked at him, as calm as a quiet lake.

"Professor Snape, I am only following the Dean's orders."

Snape frowned, took out a document from the drawer, threw it on Lin Xia, and said coldly: "You can go out!"

Draco and Lin Xia left together. The two of them were silent all the way. It was not until they entered the Hufflepuff common room that Draco let out a long sigh of relief.

He touched his forehead and saw a thin layer of sweat.

Turning to look at Lin Xia, she still looked calm and calm.

Draco couldn't help but ask: "Lin Xia, aren't you nervous?"

"Why are you nervous? Snape is a professor at the school and we are students. No matter what, he will have basic professional ethics."

"Ah, what kind of professional ethics?"

Lin Xia paused and said seriously: "In other words, no matter how angry Snape is, he can't do anything to us."

The fatal answer.

Unpretentious and reliable.

Draco was speechless, not knowing whether to say that Lin Xia was arrogant or that she had no doubts about the character of the Hogwarts professor.

...The news that Lin Xia and Draco had produced another paper could not be hidden from the professors teaching at Hogwarts.

Now, not only the Potions class, but also the professors in the Transfiguration class, Defense Against the Dark Arts class, and Herbal Medicine class liked to ask Draco and Lin Xia to answer questions.

Even the unpopular astronomy professor, Professor Sinister, asked Lin Xia to answer questions one night when he was stargazing.

That is a basic question about astrology, and any student who attends the class can answer it.

But Professor Sinister praised her greatly and said: "You are indeed an outstanding student who can write two papers. Astronomy has been silent for too long. I hope you can make a breakthrough in astronomy. Then publish a paper."

Lin Xia blinked at the professor: "I will try my best, professor."

After Professor Sinister left, the other little wizards burst out and surrounded Lin Xia.

"Lin Xia, the professor said you published two papers. What's going on? Where do you have new papers?"

Lin Xia said: "To be precise, only one paper has been published, and another is in preparation. I will try to publish it before Christmas."

The little wizards are too enthusiastic. They really want to know what another paper they are preparing is like.

The professor didn't dare to ask, but they dared to ask Lin Xia himself.

Lin Xia immediately pulled out Draco and used him to attract fire without hesitation.

"Draco has also prepared a paper to publish, you can ask him."

Draco had just quietly walked to the door. When he heard this, his expression changed and he immediately ran downstairs.

"Draco, wait for us!"

"Draco, don't leave..."

The news that both Lin Xia and Draco were about to publish papers was completely detonated in the History of Magic class.

As a ghost, Professor Binns actually took the initiative to call the names of two students in this class.

"Lin Xia and Draco, please answer the questions."

The little wizard looked at Professor Binns in shock. They thought that the ghost professor would only read the contents of the book in a rigid and scripted manner.

As a result, was even Professor Ghost impressed by the talents of Lin Xia and Draco?

However, Lin Xia and Draco were both in the History of Magic class, writing papers with automatic quill pens and not paying attention.

I was suddenly called on by the professor, and I have to say that my mind went blank and I was a little panicked.

Lin Xia stood up and asked politely: "Professor, can you repeat the question you just asked?"

Professor Binns repeated.

Lin Xia thought for a while, quickly found the answer, and read it out.

She had taught herself the History of Magic course when she was a child.

For ordinary little wizards, there needs to be a course dedicated to this.

But for young wizards like Lin Xia and Draco who receive family education and inheritance, the history of magic is common knowledge about magic that they must know from childhood.

Lin Xia passed the test smoothly.

Draco relied on his familiar common sense. Although his answer was not very standard, the meaning was similar and he passed the test.

Professor Binns specifically said: "The history of magic also needs you two outstanding little wizards. Are you interested in writing a paper for the history of magic?"

The whole place suddenly fell silent.

Even Draco and Lin Xia didn't know how to answer.

How to write an essay on History of Magic?
Are you going to trace history yourself and reveal the truth that the superiors want to hide?
Draco may not know it yet, but Lin Xia knows very well that history is just a record written by the victors.

Fortunately, Professor Binns didn't insist on an answer. It might be that the ghost's body restricted the use of its thinking.

After waiting for a while without receiving a reply, it continued reading on its own.

Among the Gryffindor students, Ron couldn't help but look at Hermione.

Hermione didn't stray from the history of magic, but listened carefully.

As a young wizard who grew up among Muggles, the history of the wizarding world was her weak point.

Hermione lowered her head, and Ron couldn't see her expression clearly.

After the History of Magic get out of class ended, Ron asked: "Hermione, are you okay?"

Hermione was stunned, "I'm fine."

Ron: "Just Lin Xia and Draco..."

"Oh, you were talking about them writing papers. They have been staying in the laboratory recently. I haven't studied with them for a while. I didn't expect that even Draco also wrote a paper."

Hermione wanted to look relaxed, but she found it too difficult to fake her emotions.

Her face fell, and she tried to turn her depression into hard work, and said firmly: "Ron, it must be me who publishes a paper next time!"

Ron shrugged: "Well, I think you can do it. I admit that you are very smart, but if you want to be able to publish a paper, I have to say that you are still a little behind."

Hermione glared at Ron, suddenly stepped on him hard, and left angrily.

Ron covered his feet in pain and said in disbelief: "She actually stepped on me. She is not ladylike at all. How could she do this?"

Harry comforted him on his face, thinking: Why does he think Ron deserves it?
