Hogwarts: Voldemort, don't stop me from studying - Chapter 342

Neville felt much better after crying.

He apologized embarrassingly to everyone, but everyone just thought he was too upset by Professor Snape, so they all nodded understandingly.

Harry also accompanied Neville and scolded Snape for a while——

If he were in Gryffindor House, he would immediately get a lot of responses. But at this moment, Neville lowered his head and said little, while Hermione next to him rolled her eyes at Harry.

“Potions is a rigorous subject. Indeed, I also think Snape taught him… um… a bit mean, but being strict is not a bad thing.” Hermione said bluntly.

Harry retorted: “Then you think he was right to let Leif test the potion?”

Hermione hesitated for a moment and said hesitantly: “For Professor Snape, he can definitely tell at a glance whether a pot of potion is poisonous or not…”

“Hermione!” Harry said angrily, “We are friends!”

“Perhaps Professor Snape wants to use this method to force Neville to study Potions seriously?”

Padma lay on her arms, tilted her head and said, “Although it is indeed a bit too much, even if it is poison, Professor Snape will definitely be able to bring Leif back.”

“I don’t believe Snape has such good intentions!” Harry said angrily: “He is just bullying Neville! It’s too much! I must tell Dumbledore!”

“I’m afraid the principal will not interfere with the professor’s teaching methods, think about Lockhart before.” Michael said.

Neville stood silently listening to this argument that was caused by him but seemed to have nothing to do with him.

He knew that Harry was on his side, not because he could understand the part that really hurt him, but because Harry was also one of the people being targeted, and he hated Snape.

Hermione and Padma retorted not because they had any objections to themselves, but because they looked at the results objectively and felt that this was just a trivial matter.

No one knows Neville’s past or his thoughts. Neville also had no intention of opening his own wound, telling everyone——

His parents were tortured to the point of madness and have been in St. Mungo’s Hospital for more than ten years.

The pity was as overwhelming to Neville as the humiliation.

But when Wade was silently by his side, he also felt the long-lost comfort and warmth.

Thinking of Vader, Neville realized that he had never heard Vader’s voice.

He looked up and looked around, but when he saw no one, he asked Theo next to him: “Where is Wade?”

“He said he had something to do and left first,” Theo said.

“oh.”

Neville silently opened the book and prepared to write today’s homework.

…

The green liquid in the crucible was bubbling. Seeing that the time was almost up, Wade took it away from the fire, stirred it clockwise a few times, and let it cool down.

While waiting, the color of the potion became lighter and lighter, and finally even became transparent.

Vader put the potion in a small bottle and stuffed it into his pocket. Put the rest in a crystal bottle big enough to fit into the closet space.

Then he took the small bottle of potion, left the Room of Requirement, and walked down the stairs.

It was close to curfew time, and the corridor was empty. Even most of the portraits were asleep. Only the torches hanging on the wall were burning quietly.

Vader’s footsteps brought out the echo of “empty, empty”, and his shadow was elongated by the torch, as if he were a strange man with a broad body and slender legs.

Two sneaky figures were frightened by the footsteps and shadows, and swooped behind the nearby statue, huddled against the wall, and their faces were almost crushed.

Wade suddenly saw two names on the statue in the castle, and was startled. Then he noticed the figures of the two chrysalis, and suddenly felt very speechless.

“Fred, George, what are you doing?” Wade asked.

He suddenly spoke, and the twins were startled. Then they saw it was Vader and let out a long sigh of relief.

“It turns out it’s you, Wade. I thought it was Filch!”

Fred calmly pushed George aside and patted the dirt on his body.

George made a gesture of raising a glass and said enthusiastically: “We are going to have a drink at Three Broomsticks. Wade, do you want to come?”

Vader shook his head and said, “I still have something to do – and isn’t this the OWLs year for you? Are you going out to drink? There are no classes tomorrow morning?”

“Oh no, Vader! Don’t be like Hermione!”

Fred held his head pretending to be in pain: “Even OWLs can’t stop us from pursuing happiness!”

“Anyway, we don’t want to enter the Ministry of Magic, and we don’t aspire to get a few certificates. Let’s study hard, Vader, we want to go out and play!”

George said lively, and then the two brothers waved their hands together and walked towards the statue of the hunchbacked witch.

Vader heard their voices getting farther and farther away——

“I think I’ll have to bring the Marauder’s Map with me next time. You really scared me just now!”

“Okay – actually Filch doesn’t patrol much anymore. He’s busy playing with crabs at night! He was seen trying to teach the cleaning crabs to clean cups…”

“No wonder our night swimming skills have declined! It turns out it’s been too long since we were chased by Filch – George, I have a brilliant idea -“

“What a coincidence, I also have an idea -“

The two of them murmured into the secret passage, making faint snickering sounds.

Ved watched them leave, then continued down, walked down a few stone steps, turned a corner, passed the pear painting in the kitchen, and saw several Hufflepuffs knocking on wooden barrels.

Then, in front of him was the door of the Potions Professor’s office.

Ved touched the potion in his pocket, raised his hand and was about to knock on the door, when the wooden door was suddenly opened.

Draco Malfoy, who came out with his head down, was full of bitterness and almost bumped into Ved, so he subconsciously took a step back.

“Don’t forget to deal with the lovage tomorrow, Mr. Malfoy.”

Snape’s tone was still gentle and polite, but it still made people feel chilly.

Malfoy’s face darkened, and he turned around and left without saying a word.

Ved then remembered that Malfoy had been punished with a whole year of detention before, and helped the professor every night. He probably helped Professor Snape deal with a lot of potion materials.

If Harry and Neville knew that the leech juice used in their shrinking potion today might have been squeezed out by Malfoy, they would definitely not remember any sad things.

He didn’t close the door, and Wade stood at the door, knocked with his fingers, and said, “Professor, can I come in?”

In the office, Snape was waving his wand, returning the clutter on the table to its original place.

Hearing the sound, he turned his head, then frowned and said, “Gray, if I’m not mistaken about the time, it’s already…”

He glanced at the time.

“–There are still five minutes before curfew?”
