Chapter 412 Why Don't You Play by the Rules?
Before coming here, Kyle had always thought that Snape's confinement was to deal with complex potions materials. After all, this was also the most common confinement content in Potions class. ₆₉ₛₕᵤₓ.cₒₘ
The materials they used in class, including various kinds of bile, caterpillar mucus, venomous snake teeth... almost all came from this.
Unexpectedly, he was actually helping to brew the magic potion this time...it was also the rare wolfsbane potion.
In the magic world, the number of people who can brew this kind of potion can be counted on one hand, and each one of them is a long-established potion master.
Kyle looked up and quickly noticed the meaningful expression on Snape's face.
Now, he seemed to understand a little bit.
Professor Lupine...
Perhaps because of Dumbledore's request, Snape could not reveal Professor Lupine's werewolf identity, but this did not mean that he could not give others a hint.
It seems that Snape took great pains to drive Professor Lupine out of the castle.
Kyle estimated that he was just waiting to ask why he was brewing wolfsbane potion.
As long as he asked himself, he would be able to follow the flow and reveal more clues about Professor Luping's identity.
This was calculated...
If he were another student, he might be able to discover Professor Lupine's werewolf identity under his step-by-step guidance.
pity……
"Oh, Professor, you are so amazing, you can even master such a complicated potion." Kyle complimented, and then continued to grind the lionfish bone powder in his hand, without any intention of asking why.
Snape seemed a little surprised, frowned, and stared at Kyle not knowing what he was thinking.
Half an hour later, he lost his composure and asked seemingly casually:
"Do you know the effects of wolfsbane potion?"
"Oh, I know." Kyle said, "President Sacia from St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Injuries told me before that wolfsbane potion can suppress the curse of werewolves and allow them to transform on a full moon night. Still able to stay awake.”
Kyle's expression was very calm when he spoke, as if he was answering a question in class. He closed his mouth after speaking and did not ask any unnecessary questions at all.
This time, Snape felt even more uncomfortable.
He didn't understand, was Kyle really not curious at all about his actions of brewing wolfsbane potion, yet he was so calm.
Snape had already thought about what to say next, but he never expected that Kyle would be so uncooperative, which led to him not even taking the first step.
But he couldn't be too straightforward, otherwise it would be difficult for Professor Dumbledore to explain.
Looking at Kyle who seemed to be fine, Snape suddenly felt a little regretful.
If he had known this was the case, he should have asked Kyle to deal with those rat spleens and armadillo bile just now...
The underground classroom fell into silence again.
Kyle naturally didn't know what Snape was thinking. He was currently handling the materials and peeking at Snape's process of brewing the Wolfsbane potion.
This is a rare opportunity to have such close contact with the brewing process of wolfsbane potion. It would be a pity to miss it.
It has to be said that this potion is really complicated. After five hours, Kyle finally put the last cut Wolfsbane blade into the crucible at Snape's signal.
As the processed leaves were put into the crucible, the potion inside began to boil instantly, and the color gradually changed from reddish-brown to brown.
"boom!"
At this time, the door of the underground classroom was suddenly knocked open from the outside.
Malfoy stumbled in.
"Give me a reason!"
Snape looked at him grimly.
Malfoy's collision was too sudden. He was concentrating on stirring the potion just now, but he was startled and almost threw his wand into the cauldron.
"Teach, Professor."
Malfoy's face looked paler than usual, and he said in shock: "I was in Hogsmeade... saw Potter's head... there was only one head, floating there..."
"Oh?" Snape said coldly, "You mean, Potter went to Hogsmeade?"
"Yes, it's his head..." Malfoy said subconsciously.
"Idiot!" Snape glared at him, "Don't you know about the Invisibility Cloak?"
The next second, Malfoy stopped shaking. He seemed to have thought of something, and his originally pale face quickly turned red.
"That damn Potter..." Malfoy said angrily, "How dare he tease me!"
"Idiot!" Snape glanced at him again, "Follow me, I can probably guess where he will appear from."
"As for you..." He turned to look at Kyle, "Every ten minutes, stir the crucible counterclockwise three times until it emits smoke of the same color as the potion... Can you understand what I say?"
"No problem, Professor." Kyle nodded.
"very good."
After saying that, Snape dragged his long black cloak and strode outside.
Malfoy trotted after him.
After they left, Kyle immediately took out the parchment and quill, and wrote something on it while recalling Snape's operation just now.
After writing more than half of the parchment, Kyle folded it and put it away carefully...
Of course, during this period, he did not forget the task that Snape gave him...stirring the crucible.
It was now the third ten minutes. Kyle took out his wand and shook it gently on the crucible, and the potion inside also rotated.
After three stirrings, the color of the potion became darker and darker, and the smell became more pungent...
Kyle didn't know if this was normal. After all, this kind of potion was invented only in recent years. Even in the "Powerful Potion" in the forbidden book area, there was no record of it.
But it should be okay.
Kyle smelled it carefully, and the smell was almost exactly the same as those that were cleaned up before.
"Bang!"
At this time, a muffled sound suddenly came from the next door, as if someone threw something on the wall.
And next to the underground classroom was Snape's office.
Then, Professor Lupin's voice came from the corridor outside...
"See you next time, Severus... Harry, come with me, I need to talk to you about the paper on vampires..."
The surroundings returned to silence.
A few minutes later, the door of the underground classroom was opened again, and Snape walked in, his face was ugly as if he had been fed a large bottle of bitter and astringent bile.
As soon as he entered the door, he looked up at Kyle and said coldly, "Get out!"
"Okay..."
Although Kyle didn't know what happened, he knew from Snape's expression that he was in a bad mood and any little thing could make him explode.
So Kyle didn't hesitate and left the underground classroom directly according to Snape's request.
