Sequence Potions at Hogwarts

The monster at the door of the principal's office was open, Nix went straight upstairs, and heard a quarrel at the door, he knocked lightly on the door.

"Come in."

Nix pushed the door open.There weren't many people in the headmaster's room, and Hagrid was sitting on the sofa, which was very heavy.Knicks felt that he was no different from sitting on the ground, and even sitting down, he was still taller than Knicks.

Snape and the fake Moody parted, their faces flushed and looking at each other angrily.Probably just had an argument.

Dumbledore rested his hands on the Pensieve, puzzled.

Nix noticed that the picture in the Pensieve was the scene in Professor McGonagall's office yesterday.

Seeing Nix coming in, Hagrid said anxiously, "Dumbledore, it's impossible for Nix to steal it. If he wants to, he can tell me directly, there's no need to steal it."

"I know, Hagrid." Dumbledore comforted Hagrid, then turned to Nix and said, "Nix, do you have anything to say to me?"

Nix was stunned, you called me here, okay, ask me if I have anything to say, is this really clueless?Although he had doubts in his heart, but now that the other party is present, it is better not to say anything, and after thinking about it, he asked.

"Principal, the warriors of Beauxbaton and Durmstrang are looking for me. They want the potion. Do you want to give it to them?"

"I think you can sell them the potion." Dumbledore winked at Nix, "I believe you have a way to make them less dangerous, right?"

Nix was a little confused. Drinking the potion would definitely increase his strength, how could it not be dangerous.

Then thought of the problem.

What Dumbledore said was "less dangerous", not to make them less powerful.There are many ways to do this.

The participation of Harry and others was completely beyond Dumbledore's expectations. Dumbledore didn't care about whether Harry could win the game. He wanted to ensure that Harry's life was not in danger.

In a normal battle, when both sides are about the same strength, it is not so easy to keep your hand. If you are not careful, you will be killed, but if one side is strong enough to crush the other, then it is much easier to keep your hand. Fu Rong and Krum probably wouldn't have wanted to kill Harry.

To be on the safe side, potions can be used to change their personalities. The most typical one is the potion formula given to Malfoy's family, the Sun Way, to make them friendly.

Fake Moody objected: "No, it's too dangerous. What if I miss it?"

Dumbledore: "Believe me, Moody, he can do it, Lupine is the best proof, he doesn't have to worry about transforming anymore."

Knicks understands why the fake Moody objected. He needs Harry to win the championship, and adding strength to Fleur Delacour and Viktor Krum is tantamount to increasing the difficulty of the task.

To his surprise, Moody was really trusted by Dumbledore. After he reminded Dumbledore that Moody was infected by madness, he still didn't find Moody's problem.

Even if Barty Crouch Jr. is very advanced in Occlumency, his thinking is infected by madness, and Legilimency cannot be used, but Dumbledore still has the ability of the audience potion, and he can observe Barty Crouch Jr. inadvertently revealed Come out with emotions.

None of this is revealing, it just shows that Dumbledore trusts Moody very, very much.

"Principal Dumbledore, Nix..." Hagrid was interrupted by Dumbledore as soon as he opened his mouth.

"Hagrid, Snape, and Moody didn't find any traces. It can't be done by the students. The students can't do it without leaving any traces. There were many wizards who came yesterday, and anyone could be."

Knicks looks at fake Moody.When anything happened in school, his first thought was Barty Crouch Jr. causing trouble.This was prejudice, but at least he guessed right this time. The Blast-Ended Whelk was indeed stolen by Barty Crouch Jr., and the reason was very simple.

anti magic.

Anti-magic is rare in the wizarding world. The most recent anti-magic incident was when Voldemort went to Harry's parents.

Barty Crouch Jr. believed that Voldemort must have been interested in anti-magic.

He went to Hagrid's hut overnight to get some snail shells, and took some adult snails with him.I planned to use the post office to mail things away today, but before the snails could be sent out, Dumbledore called over and went to Hagrid's cabin with Snape to check the scene.

The result is of course nothing.Even if there are traces, they will be disposed of secretly.

There was silence in the office for a while.

Dumbledore said, "Severus, take Nix away and let him choose some herbs from your collection."

"Okay." Snape turned to look at Nix: "Let's go, Mr. Lestrange. You'd better make the potion in front of me, and don't even think about taking away the ingredients."

Dumbledore explained again: "Moody, I believe you will find something, and then go to Hagrid's cabin to have a look. Of course, there is no rush this time, you can go after breakfast."

"Okay." Fake Moody greeted Hagrid, took out a flagon and took a sip as he walked.

Nix followed behind Snape, and when he heard Dumbledore's words, he thought it would be strange if he could find any clues, and he might be wiped out on the spot if he found the clues.

After leaving the principal's office, Nix asked in a low voice, "Hagrid, are there any snail shells left?"

"Not much more, do you want more?"

"Well, help me collect them all, I came up with a good idea. By the way, the snails were stolen, can you find more? We probably don't have one for each class."

Nix deliberately steered the conversation toward the breeding of the snails, wanting to remind him not to tell anyone how the snails got there.

Hagrid was very sad about the loss of the snails, and said in a low voice, "It's definitely not enough. You can only share one among several of you. They are difficult to breed."

Snape, who was walking in front of Nix, stopped suddenly, Nix's words reminded him.The number of fried-tailed snails is not much, and the few lost ones are of little use for research, but they can breed more.

"Hagrid, how does this thing reproduce?"

"Uh, I don't know either. At least one male and one female? This is a brand new magical creature, and I'm still observing it." Hagrid said shyly.

"How did you reproduce so much?" Snape frowned.

"This, that." Hagrid felt guilty. "Probably not legal."

Snape narrowed his eyes: "Illegal breeding?"

"Uh, yes. I got a..."

Snape interrupted him: "If anyone asks you how you bred this thing, chances are he stole it." Then he turned and left.

Nix fell behind and said to Hagrid, "I'll go to Professor Snape to get some materials, and then I'll find you."

"Well, I'll wait for you. Have you had breakfast? I can take your share later."

Thinking of Hagrid's craftsmanship, Nix shuddered: "No need, I just ate."
