Chapter 137: Peaceful September

The little "accident" that occurred on the first Sunday after the start of the second grade did not affect Matthew Wickfield much.
He behaved as usual, and it seemed that the next day, he had forgotten all the things that happened the night before.
He still kindly called the roommates by their names, and generously copied their homework... At least in the eyes of the roommates, Matthew held no grudges at all.
Of course, these are just appearances.
In fact, Matthew has become more vigilant than before...
He began to minimize the time spent in the dormitory as much as possible. Even when he went to bed at night, he always kept his wand beside him.
Although he didn't think, those "bear kids" dared to attack him in the bedroom.
But at least... it's better to be as careful as possible.
...
On the other hand, due to the "request" of Professor Horace Slughorn, Matthew came into contact with Miss Elaine Shafik more frequently and became more proactive.
Innocent Miss Shafik had encountered a lot of trouble during her time at Hogwarts, but Matthew was very enthusiastic and helped her a lot.
The relationship between the two has become very good, at least Matthew believes that he is now a "friend" that Miss Shafik trusts.
Elaine Shafik is the most important clue that Matthew can grasp now...
If Matthew's guess is right, it was her father, Shafik manager of Lihen Bookstore, who shipped the book from Italy to England a year ago... and then it fell into Matthew's hands inadvertently.
If you can follow the clue of Miss Shafic and figure out the true source and true face of the book... Matthew can really relax.
The small accident on the first Sunday after school started, although it was a help to Matthew...
But in Matthew's view, it may also be a warning.
That book can suddenly manipulate itself without any prerequisite reaction, aiming its wand at others, and using magic that it is impossible to use normally... This also means that it can also manipulate itself, and then Aim your wand at yourself, and then another spell like "Awanda Suicide"...
Their strength is not on one level, and there is no room for trickery in the face of it.
If the book's attitude towards oneself is kind, then naturally nothing will happen.
But if it has a certain malicious attitude towards itself--
Matthew must try his best to show "trust" and "trust" in it!
After all, judging from the previous performance, that book can't know what I really think...
...
The rainy September is gradually over.
The weather started to clear and the dark clouds dissipated from the sky, although the temperature became lower and lower.
The past month was the same as the months after Morgana was defeated by Professor Grindelwald last year... The whole school was extremely peaceful and everything went smoothly.
Those Aurors who live on campus do not actively disturb teachers and students; as for those dementors, they usually dare not step into the castle.
As for the curriculum-
The transfiguration class has become a course that most people like... the "Severus Snape" professor has a very good temper, and is humorous, and has a deep knowledge in transfiguration... at least He is much more popular than Professor Troca a year ago, even though Matthew didn't like him much out of intuition.
However, Matthew also had to admit that the courses in his transfiguration class were quite interesting:
For example, a pair of white rabbits becomes a pair of slippers, a mouse becomes a cup, and a teapot becomes a tortoise (by observing whether its tail is still a spout and spraying steam, or the transformed turtle still has a wicker pattern. The details of the shell and the like to judge the results of deformation)...
Professor "Severus Snape" will often prepare some small gifts to reward students who have made significant progress in transfiguration classes.
Almost all students like Professor "Severus Snape".
Maybe only one person except--
That was Harry Evans of Gryffindor... Mr. Evans eventually performed poorly in the final exam due to some accidents in the last semester, becoming the only "repetition" in Matthew's grade. "Students (even students like Crabbe and Gore, who almost never study, never repeat).
However, it is said that in the new semester, he performed fairly well in the first grade.
Of course, that is limited to courses other than Transfiguration.
Matthew had deliberately asked about it. It is said that in the transformation class, the always gentle Professor "Severus Snape" was extremely strict with Mr. Evans.
Even according to those first-year freshmen, it was a bit harsh.
Mr. Evans should be the only student who is not liked by Professor "Severus Snape".
Some people speculate that this may be because "Professor Snape" in his bones hates such "repeat students".
...
The herbal medicine course, UU reading www. uukanshu. com has become a trend toward disaster.
Those Flor flowers grew bigger and bigger, they also began to be aggressive...
There are many spikes on their stems, which will pierce into the skin if they are careless...and those spiked vesicles contain a lot of venom.
Although you wear dragon leather gloves on your hands, you won't be stabbed by them; but the rest of the body is different.
The spikes of the Flor flowers can easily pierce the robes of wizards, and then inject their venom into the body...
Madam Pomfrey is busy. After almost every herbal medicine class, there are one or two "poisoned" students who are sent to the school hospital... Although this kind of toxicity is not too strong, it does give her work. Brought a lot of trouble.
Professor Sprout is a little helpless about this, although she will repeatedly emphasize the precautions when contacting Flor flowers in class...but this can't stand it. Often students will "be stupid" in practice and eventually get recruited. .
Matthew once heard from Professor Sprout in private that he would apply to Principal Rozier next semester to prepare a set of dragon skin protective clothing for every student participating in the herbal medicine class.
As for the other courses, there is not much trouble.
...
On the last Saturday of September, when Matthew returned to the Slytherin common room, he received a notice.
Tomorrow, that is Sunday, the students in the second grade and above will get the opportunity to go to Hogsmeade Village.
For first-year students, they are only allowed to travel to Hogsmeade during the Christmas holidays and Easter holidays.
And students above the second grade have more opportunities to come into contact with the real magical world...
