Chapter 125: Work in school

On Saturday afternoon, taking advantage of the time to go to the library, Jon returned the "Cutting-edge Transformation Guide" to Mrs. Pins.
When returning to the restaurant for dinner, an owl appeared and threw a small box to Jon.
Jon took the box and put it in his pocket.
...
After dinner, he walked to Professor Snape's office.
In the past few years when he came to Hogwarts, he had to visit Snape's office almost every year because of some accidents, and Jon even got used to it.
When he knocked on the door lightly, Snape's cold voice came from inside: "Please come in!"
Jon quickly walked in: "Professor Snape!"
At the same time he glanced at the glass bottles of various colors on the shelf...
"You're here." Snape raised his head, glared at him, then moved his gaze to the cauldron again: "The toad in the bucket, get rid of it!"
Jon found out that there was a large wooden barrel in the center of the office.
"Q...Q...Q... the voice kept coming from the barrel."
I walked over and saw that there were densely packed toads, strange-looking toads, because they all had a horn on their heads...
"Bohemian horned toad!" Snape coldly ordered, "Hart, take out their hearts and liver..."
While talking, Snape threw a silver knife over.
"Yes, Professor!" Jon nodded, picked up the knife, looked it up carefully, and finally put it back on the table.
Then Jon took out the small box that the owl had brought for dinner.
As early as Tuesday, when he was notified of the labor content of the school, Jon wrote to Eric, asking him to buy two scalpels and a box of blades, and then send it to himself.
After all, based on his view of the Bohemian long-horned toad, this creature has a very thick skin... It is not easy to get in with ordinary knives.
Now he has taken out a scalpel and attached a blade.
There is no doubt that this kind of tool he has already proficient in is obviously much more comfortable to use than ordinary silver knives.
Easily grabbed a toad from the barrel with his left hand--
"Gua..."
He only heard an exclamation, Jon easily pierced the scalpel into Toad's belly, and then lightly cut the belly.
It took more than ten seconds to identify the position of the heart and liver, took them out, and put them into two glass bottles; Jon threw the dead toad into another empty wooden barrel. Then I took out another...
It was a bit rusty at first, but after dissecting a dozen of them, the movements became proficient!
Snape raised his head in surprise, watching Jon's skillful knife pierce Toad's belly; watching him easily take out the medicines he needed; and watching him take off a dull scalpel blade. , And then put on a new one...
...
After only an hour and a half, the barrels that were still empty were already full of toads.
The other barrel, which was full before, was empty.
"I think I'm done, Professor!" Jon picked up two glass bottles filled with the liver and heart of the horned toad, and stood up.
"Put it on my shelf!" Snape said calmly, still staring at the cauldron in front of him.
Jon followed the initials on the medicinal material rack and placed the two medicinal materials separately.
When he turned his head, he heard Snape whisper softly: "The... those blades you just had? Show me a look!"
Snape's voice was not as cold as before, but rather curious.
"Yes, Professor!" Jon quickly took out another scalpel from his pocket and at the same time took out a new blade and handed it to Snape.
Looking at Snape, it took a few minutes to jerky the guardian blade on the scalpel...
"It's fragile, it can be broken very easily... but it's also sharp!" Snape stared at the scalpel in his hand, as if talking to himself; then, he gently wiped the blade on his finger. wipe.
With almost no effort, the blade easily made a deep wound in his hand, and blood poured out little by little.
"Reparo!" Snape put down the scalpel, and at the same time took out his wand with the other hand and pointed it at the injured finger.
After almost ten seconds, the wound on the finger disappeared a little bit...
Then Snape pointed his wand at Jon's hands again, and whispered, "Clean up ()!"
The blood stains on the hands, as well as the internal organs of the toads between the nails, fell off little by little, and his hands became clean in an instant.
"Professor!" Before Snape could speak, Jon said first: "I have two such knives. If you don't mind, this one in your hand can be placed here first!"
Snape narrowed his eyes and did not speak.
Jon quickly took out the blade box and poured out a dozen brand-new scalpel blades on Snape's desk.
Snape still didn't speak, he just waved his wand... the scalpel and the blade flew into his drawer together.
...
"Now, do me a favor again!" Snape said coldly, pointing to the crucible in front of him.
"Professor, what kind of potion are you preparing?" Jon asked tentatively~EbookFREE.me~Which potion! Snape said coldly, "A certain werewolf still needs my help in order to stay sane on the night of the full moon... Well, if it wasn't for Dumbledore's request..."
This is not the first time Jon has seen Snape's wolf poison potion, but the last time Snape was to suggest to him that there was a werewolf in the school, and this time, he showed almost all the steps.
"For some more advanced potions..." Snape said slowly.
Jon pricked his ears quickly.
"The difficulty in the preparation process is not the process or the handling of the materials..." Snape paused, and continued: "It was the last step."
"Even if it is the same potion, different wizards have to deal with them in different ways... It relies on wizards to explore and need a little inspiration; you can never get it just by reading books and asking for advice..."
"So I always think that potions require talent. The kind of idiots I often meet can never achieve real results on potions!" Snape sneered, "And this last step of processing, we Call it a sequence of a potion... For any high-level potion, if you can't find a sequence that belongs to you, you will never be able to successfully formulate it!"
Jon nodded thoughtfully.
At the same time, Snape's crucible was smoking black smoke...
Jon raised his head and asked boldly, "Professor Snape...Can I be confined by you for more times in the future?"
Snape glanced at him coldly, and said sarcastically, "Whatever you want...If you are willing to come here and do some dirty work like today!"
"Once a week!" After a pause, he added.
