Hogwarts: I'm a model wizard

Chapter 744 Two bottles of love potion



"Kyle, you must come to the party tomorrow.

After the potions class ended, Slughorn stopped Kyle who was about to leave and said: "This time is to celebrate Mr. Shabinibres's seventeenth birthday. You will definitely come, right? "

He looked like he was shaking his head and looking very happy, as if the person whose birthday was about to be celebrated was him.

Kyle, who was stopped by him, just nodded and said, "Of course, Professor Slughorn, I will participate."

"I knew it." Slughorn smiled even more happily, "The coming of age of a wizard is a big day, and many people will come to attend. You definitely don't want to miss it.

"Then I'll prepare the drinks for the party first. I hope Three Broomsticks still has some good old wine..."

Slughorn fastened the gold buckle of his dragon-skin briefcase and headed out.

"Wait a minute, professor, I want to ask a question." Kyle suddenly stopped him.

"Then ask, kid, ask..." Slughorn turned his head and said kindly.

"Professor, do you know... Horcruxes."

Slughorn froze, his hand stopped in mid-air, and his round face seemed to sink.

It's strange that a person who was energetic just now seems to have become sluggish in an instant, as if he hasn't slept in several days.

He licked his lips and asked in a hoarse voice: "You, what did you just say?"

"Horcrux, Professor." Kyle repeated again, "I saw this in a book and was curious."

"Dumbledore asked you to come?" Slughorn asked in a low voice, but his tone was very firm. "Dumbledore showed you that memory... right? He asked you to ask me!"

Slughorn's eyes were filled with shock and fear, and sweat began to form on his forehead.

"What memory? Does Professor Dumbledore know this too?" Kyle asked doubtfully.

"You don't know?" Slughorn was stunned for a moment, took out a handkerchief from his breast pocket and wiped his forehead.

"Is there anything I should know?" Kyle said, "Like I just said, I read it in a book."

"What book!" Slughorn asked: "I'm sure there won't be any records about that kind of thing in the Hogwarts library. You can't fool me. It must be Dumbledore..."

"No, professor, I saw it from Nicolas Flamel." Kyle interrupted him and said: "I found a copy of "Advanced Black Magic Revealed" in his private library. The content is really interesting.

"It's just that some of the questions are too general and I can't quite understand them. Horcruxes are among them."

"I have no comment!" Slughorn said softly, wiping his sweating forehead again, "You've got the wrong person, Kyle, I know nothing about Horcruxes... nothing at all! "

Slughorn repeated the last sentence forcefully, as if he wanted to emphasize something.

Then he grabbed the fire dragon leather briefcase, randomly stuffed the handkerchief into his pocket, and started to walk out.

But after reaching the door, Slughorn suddenly stopped again.

He seemed to have thought of something, took a deep breath and turned around again to look at Kyle.

Like, so similar...

At this moment, Slughorn seemed to see two figures overlapping.

He is equally talented, and his whole body shines with a blinding light, as if he is incompatible with the other people in Hogwarts.

And just like that man, he also noticed the Horcrux...

"I advise you not to waste your time on this, Kyle. It's not something you should know."

Slughorn said seriously: "You should use your energy on other things, such as...well, Quidditch is good, I remember you are a good chaser.

"If you are willing, I can recommend you to the Holyhead Harpies, where you will definitely become a famous professional Quidditch player."

Slughorn didn't give Kyle a chance to speak.

He didn't even care about Kyle's answer. After finishing speaking, he slammed the door and left the classroom.

Kyle and Connor were the only ones left in the room.

"What did you ask him?" Kang Na asked doubtfully.

She had never seen a person change his face so quickly. The fear on Slughorn's face just now almost overflowed.

"It's nothing, just some past events that he doesn't want to mention." Kyle spread his hands and followed Kangna towards the outside of the underground classroom.

"You couldn't do it on purpose, right?" Kangna glanced at Kyle suspiciously, "To not go to the party?"

"The effect is remarkable, isn't it?" Kyle said with a smile: "For a long time after that, I shouldn't have to worry about what party he will invite me to...he won't even want to see me. ."

The fact was exactly as Kyle predicted. Slughorn didn't say a word to him for two weeks. Even in Potions class, he would try to keep a distance from Kyle as much as possible, and would deliberately ignore him when checking homework, as if Kyle was transparent.

Even Connor, who was sitting with Kyle, had a rare few days of leisure. Slughorn seemed to have made up his mind to draw a clear line with Kyle and the people around him.

But this is exactly what Kyle wants to see, and the same goes for Connor.

Connor, who had not been in "lockdown" for two weeks, told Kyle more than once that he should have done so earlier.

In this regard, Kyle only said that he wanted to thank Harry for his inspiration.

This is also true. If he hadn't met Harry, Ron, and Hermione discussing Horcruxes in the hall before, Kyle wouldn't have thought of this idea.

What Slughorn resists the most is anything or topic related to Horcruxes. If you want to keep a distance from him, it is easy, just talk about it.

Kyle was a little annoyed, why didn't he think of it before?

From February to March, the weather did not change much. It was still as cold as ever, but it was humid and windy. Fine snowflakes were blown on the classroom windows, making a crackling sound.

This day is the weekend, but people are generally not very happy because they have just been notified that the plan to visit Hogsmeade has been cancelled.

"This is already the second time!"

While eating breakfast, Kyle heard someone complain, "Why, I've been looking forward to this since last week!"

"I have thought of it a long time ago." Justin Finch-Fletchley walked over and patted the other party on the shoulder, "Don't forget, the previous Gryffindor was still in St. Mungo's."

"But I ran out of candy at Christmas, and I was thinking of buying some more."

“I bought a lot last time,” McMillan said, “but now I only have Brass Beans and Buttercup Mints left.”

"That's great. If I had known I would have bought an extra galleon last time."

Kyle walked past several people.

He was also not surprised about the cancellation of Hogsmeade visitation day. In addition to the last attack, there have been more and more missing reports in the Daily Prophet recently, and several of them were from Hogwarts. Relatives of students.

Under such circumstances, the school will certainly not let students leave easily.

Kyle and Connor came to an empty seat and sat down, preparing to have breakfast.

"Kyle, what's wrong with you today?" Connor asked, spreading jam on her bread.

"no, what happened?"

"I want to try a new potion today." Kangna said, "But there are a lot of things that need to be prepared, and it is very troublesome to deal with. If you are okay, can you help me?"

"No problem." Kyle nodded and said, "When?"

"How about after breakfast, we can go to the underground classroom."

"I think it would be better to go to the Room of Requirement." Kyle thought for a while and said, "If you go to the underground classroom, you will probably meet Slughorn. I heard that he rarely holds his favorite parties anymore. , it would be bad if it scared him again.

"The things in the Room of Requirement are quite complete, and the environment is better than the underground classroom."

"Okay." Kang Na nodded.

After breakfast, the two went to the eighth floor together, where they met Harry and Ron.

It's just... there's something wrong about the two of them.

"Let me go, Harry, I'm going to find Romi Davanni, don't stop me!"

Harry grabbed Ron's arm tightly and dragged him forward, while Ron was like a fish thrown to the shore, twisting and struggling.

"Yes, yes, I will take you to find her now." Harry said without looking back: "She is in Slughorn's office. Let's go now."

"Why is she there?"

"Perhaps, we are in Potions class..." Harry said casually.

"Maybe I can apply to go with her!" Ron said happily.

"Yes, yes, you can...oh, don't drool on my sleeves!"

"What's going on?" Kangna approached Kyle and asked, "Look at Harry's eyes, are they bruised? Also, why do I feel that something is not right about Ron's condition?"

Kyle looked over and found that there was indeed a faint bruise around Harry's left eye, about the size of a fist.

Combined with Ron's infatuated look, Kyle probably guessed what was going on.

"Harry!" He called to the two of them, "Did Ron drink a love potion?"

Apart from the Imperius Curse, the only thing that could make Ron voluntarily give up his weekends to make up for classes was the love potion.

"I think so." Harry also saw the two of them and said quickly: "He ate the chocolate cauldron Romy Davanny gave me for Christmas."

“That should be it.

"Kanna said thoughtfully: "Remember what I said before that someone brought the love potion to Hogwarts? Wanni is one of them, but I remember I had confiscated her love potion. "

"Apparently she bought another bottle," Kyle shrugged.

"Stop talking about this." Harry said anxiously, "What can you do?"

Kyle walked over and tapped Ron on the forehead with his wand.

"The fascination wears off!"

"Hey, what are you doing!" Ron pushed Kyle dissatisfied, and then said to Harry next to him: "Let me go, I'm going to find dear Romilda!"

"It's useless?" Harry looked at Kyle blankly.

"Obviously, Romilda used a real love potion, not a joke product from Weasley's joke shop." Kyle put away his wand, "This situation requires an antidote."

"Then you can?" Harry asked.

Kyle didn't speak, just glanced at Kangna.

"Half an hour." Kangna said, "The effect of dispelling the intoxicant requires a mixture of multiple magic potions, but I lack the most basic tranquilizer."

"If you don't want to wait, you can also go to the campus hospital or find Professor Slughorn." Kyle looked at Harry again and said, "They should have ready-made potions there."

"I'm still going to find Professor Slughorn." Harry said, "But can you help me? He keeps kicking my legs. It hurts too much. Does the love potion have the effect of increasing strength? "

"Under normal circumstances, there is no such thing." Kyle said with a smile, "But who asked you to block Ron from pursuing the girl you love? If he doesn't hit you, who will he hit?"

Kangna couldn't hold it back and burst out laughing.

Not to mention, the way Harry looked at Ron now really looked like a villain who was tearing other people apart.

Harry's face suddenly fell. If he could help it, he wouldn't want to do this. There was nothing he could do about it. He couldn't really let him run to find that Romilda.

"Forget it, there's no rush about the potion, let's help him first," said Kangna.

"Since you said so, okay." Kyle took out his wand again.

"Collapse!"

There was a flash of red light, and Ron immediately passed out in Harry's arms.

"It's much easier now."

Kyle used the accompanying spell to take the unconscious Ron, and came to Slughorn's office with Harry.

The door was ajar, and Harry just knocked lightly before it opened with a creak.

"Sorry, Professor Slughorn, Ron... oh, my God!"

Harry, who had just opened the door, suddenly screamed.

Kyle quickly raised his head, and then he saw that Slughorn was like an angry bull, slamming away Harry and running out of the corridor desperately.

At the same time, he kept repeating, "Don't block the road...Rosmerta...honey...I want to see her now!"

Forehead……

Harry sat on the ground in a daze, rubbing his sore back.

So, Slughorn likes Ms. Rosmerta from The Three Broomsticks?

Somehow, he always felt that the scene in front of him seemed familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere.

At this time, Kyle had quickly thrown Ron aside and pointed his wand at Slughorn.

"Collapse!"

The next second, Slughorn also lay motionless on the ground.

Kyle cast a coma spell on the professor! ?

Harry was startled at first, then reacted suddenly.

No, it was a love potion... He remembered that Slughorn's behavior just now was exactly the same as Ron's after eating the chocolate cauldron.

Harry quickly looked into the office.

There was no chocolate cauldron inside, just a plate of steaming steak, which should be his breakfast. In addition, there was a bag of pineapple preserves and half a cup of mead.

"How is this going!"

Harry was confused.

"Ms. Rosmerta from the Three Broomsticks would give Slughorn a love potion? It doesn't seem necessary."

To be honest, Kyle didn't think it was necessary. After all, Ms. Rosmerta was very popular in Hogsmeade, and Slughorn...he went to Three Broomsticks at least twice a week, and even held a party. Will make an extra trip.

But what he shouted just now was not false, they all heard it.

"Anyway, let's send them all to the school hospital first. When Slughorn wakes up, he will naturally know what happened."

Kyle rubbed his forehead and said: "Harry, you know the traveling spell...forget it, go and inform Professor McGonagall.

"Slughorn is different from Ron. He is a professor, and it is not a small matter for someone to use a love potion on him."

"But Ron..." Harry looked back at Ron, who had just been thrown aside by Kyle.

"We're not leaving him here," Kyle said. "Kanna, take Ron with you. He is more relaxed."

Connor nodded, took out her wand and pointed it at Ron.

"Zombies floating."

Ron immediately floated limply in the air and was led forward by Kang Na.

Harry breathed a sigh of relief, stood up from the ground and immediately ran towards Professor McGonagall's office.

Kyle took Slughorn away in the same way.

Their unique combination instantly attracted everyone's attention, mainly because Slughorn was so conspicuous.

A professor actually fainted in the castle. Everyone was curious about what happened, and the atmosphere was a little tense.

However, Kyle and Connor couldn't explain anything. They couldn't just say that he drank the love potion. Slughorn would lose face.

So they could only walk through the castle towards the school hospital despite the strange looks from the students.

"Kyle, why don't you let me go find Professor McGonagall." Connor said worriedly, "In case Madam Pomfrey asks, Harry will know more."

"Don't worry, Madam Pomfrey won't ask." Kyle shook his head and said, "Besides, Harry may not know the accompanying spell, so we can't let him carry Ron over."
