The Legend of Harry Potter Schoolmaster

In a few hours...

Jon finally understood why Snape had just "escaped" from here in such an embarrassing way!

Shopping in Diagon Alley with a little girl like a blank sheet of paper is a nightmare...

Natalie Pavlova knew almost nothing about the wizarding world, but at the same time she was curious about everything.

More importantly, in the face of the innocent eyes, you can hardly refuse her question cruelly...

All afternoon, he was forced to chat with Natalie about the basics of the wizarding world.

Jon couldn't help but feel a little fortunate that most of the shops in Diagon Alley were closed today, otherwise she would introduce these magic shops and the products in them until it was dark!

But Jon kept his mind.

Whether buying textbooks, potions, or brass balances with Natalie, or helping her buy a tan spotted-headed owl as a pet...he pays great attention to his words, not at all. Show the fact that you have seen the little girl and her family.

At the same time, when taking Natalie back to Newham after buying everything, Jon was also very cautious, always letting the little girl lead the way.

After all, he didn't know whether Snape had any "intent" to test himself against this little girl, so it was better to be careful.

...

It was the second time in a day that I came to the small flat in Newham, East London. The door had just been opened, and Natalie had already run in with several large bags.

"Thank you, Jon!" She smiled and waved back to Jon.

"Goodbye!" Jon said weakly.

It was getting late, so he hurriedly made a phone call from the phone booth next to him and his home; at the same time, he called a taxi to take him back to King's Cross Station.

By the time we got back to 86 Eastleigh Road, it was almost 11 o'clock...and that's when Eric was driving to Southampton train station to pick him up.

"What's the matter, son?" Eric asked curiously, seeing Jon look so tired.

"Nothing..." Jon said helplessly.

Sergey Pavlov can't go there casually... He is now a student parent at Hogwarts, and has inextricably linked with the magical world; in rash contact, he may expose himself.

The identity of Varian Wrynn will also be used less; after all, Snape is likely to have suspicions about this "former Soviet man".

It wasn't all in vain though, and Jon pulled a crumpled piece of parchment out of his pocket.

Here's some information from Sergey to his comrades in the KGB special forces...

There is no doubt that these once brave soldiers of the Red Army are now living in quite a bad situation, both in Russia and in Western and Southern Europe.

Jon carefully tucked the parchment into the innermost compartment of the suitcase.

...

For the rest of the summer vacation, Jon obediently stayed on Eastleigh Road in Southampton and did not continue running around.

He locked himself in that rented hut every day, and prepared all kinds of potions.

The main one, he spent to prepare a kind of potion strictly controlled by the Ministry of Magic, the preparation steps are extremely complicated...

When he was in first grade, he memorized two formulas in the book "Strength Potion"... One was for the compound decoction, and the other was his latest goal: Veritaserum!

Veritaserum, a magic potion that can make people confess the truth, as long as three drops are taken, the secrets in the heart will be revealed; the pharmacist needs half a month to fully mature the potion, and it takes a month to dispense .

In most cases, it is a very effective potion. Of course, it is not completely useful; some experienced wizards will carry and even take the antidote of Veritaserum at any time, which will make the results obtained by the Veritaserum inaccurate.

The materials required for the Veritaserum include berlockshire grass, half-ear grass sprouts, Icelandic Juris stalactite blocks and salamander serum, etc... Most of them are quite expensive magic materials, which also means that its cost is high , but for the current Jon, it's nothing.

First, he crushed the borxshire grass into a green juice and stored it in the freezer.

Then cut the sprouts into 1cm-long pieces, soak them in salamander serum, and cook them on low heat for 30 minutes every 10 hours...this takes a week.

Finally, the stalactite blocks were ground into powder and placed in a dry flat-bottom glass dish together with the ferret heart tendon and soaked in water for two weeks.

After the above three steps are completed at the same time, the above three solutes are theoretically poured into the crucible, boiled, and after adding glycerin and stirring for 5 minutes, the solution will turn purple-green...

This purplish-green solution is referred to as the initial Veritas solution in "Potion of Strength"; it is the most important ingredient of Veritas.

It adds the feathers of the sound-proof bird ground into powder as an adjuvant and adjusts it for one month, and it is the Veritaserum; adding sugar as an adjuvant, and adjusts it for two weeks, it is a highly effective antidote to the Veritasein.

But there is a problem!

Twice in a row, Jon encountered a little problem when preparing the three solutes and preparing the initial Veritaserum liquid...

Very inexplicably, the three solutes did not dissolve in the glycerol, but gradually precipitated, and quickly turned from purple-green to a strange black.

There is no doubt that the subsequent preparation can not continue!

A failure is undoubtedly a waste of half a month... After all, the solute prepared by stalactite blocks and ferret heart tendon can only be stored for 10 minutes, and then it will lose its effect immediately.

"Could it be that there is a problem with the steps recorded in "Strong Potion"?" Jon repeatedly analyzed the reason for his failure.

Since he first came into contact with potions two years ago, with his rich operating experience and a little bit of intuition, the preparation process of potions has always been unfavorable... Veritaserum is the first time he has encountered it. trouble.

Going to ask Snape for some advice after returning to school? After all, he has quite a lot of experience in the preparation of Veritaserum... But doesn't that reveal what Lockhart helped him to hide before, borrowing "Strong Potion" when he was in first grade!

Jon sighed, and had to wait until school started to check in the library to see what went wrong.

However, apart from the Veritaserum, he has not been idle this semester; he has also successfully formulated several potions that are quite difficult for students who have obtained the OWLs certificate in Potions class! .

For example, the revival potion, a potion that can restore a lot of power to wizards;

Rejuvenation potion, which can re-germinate and grow plants that have just died;

Confusion potion, a potion that, when spilled, can temporarily dull and confuse humans or other artifact animals...

These medicines were packed and sorted into the backpack by him, in case of emergency.

Thanks to the book friends for the rudder master who gave the reward without a trace of tears, thank the book friends for the rewards of wearing trousers, Zhongzhuan, and the guest official surnamed Li.
