Hogwarts Kryptonian.

Chapter 10 Potion Talents
"Why, are you surprised that your father is still alive?"

Looking at Lu Yunkai's intricate expression, even without magic, Snape could understand what Lu Yunkai was thinking.

"He pretended to be dead and left me with his brother..."

"That's not his brother, it's just an ordinary Muggle." Snape shook his head, "He modified that Muggle's memory a bit, and then handed you over to him."

"..."

Lu Yunkai didn't know what to say for a while.

In his vague memory, he had infinite affection for that gentlemanly old man, but now... Lu Yunkai felt abandoned.

"The letter you wrote cannot enroll you in Hogwarts without your guardian's permission," Snape went on to explain.

"But……"

"You will have Potions class tomorrow." Snape interrupted Lu Yunkai, "I will tell you about your adoptive father during the class, and then no one will doubt whether you are worthy of Slytherin College. But I hope you also understand that if you resist from your heart, you'd better get out of Slytherin."

"Of course not." Lu Yunkai shook his head, "As long as Malfoy and the others don't make trouble for me, I will definitely not make things difficult for them."

"Well, that's good." Snape nodded, "I'm looking forward to your performance in Potions class tomorrow. Your adoptive father used to be my Potions teacher."

"This... I will work hard."

When Lu Yunkai walked out of Snape's room, he was in a daze.

What Snape said to him just now caused him to generate a huge resistance from the inside out, and Lu Yunkai understood that that resistance came from the original owner of this body.

For the current Lu Yunkai, this is a great happy event that fell from the sky, but for the previous Lu Yunkai, he may not be able to accept emotionally that the adoptive father is still alive, and he was once the head of Slytherin.

"Meow, what did that dead face tell you?"

At this moment, Chris jumped onto Lu Yunkai's shoulder and asked.

"Professor Snape told me that my adoptive father was once the Head of Slytherin House."

"Isn't your adoptive father a Muggle?"

"Not only is he not a Muggle, he is still alive, and he wrote to Professor Snape asking him to take care of me."

"Meow?" Chris was obviously a little surprised, "Then why did he send you to that scum?"

"How do I know!" Lu Yunkai sighed, "Forget it. I'll go back to rest first, and you can call me when there is no one at night."

"Meow? Don't you have to rush to find an ID? Why do you still have to go to the Room of Requirement?"

"Curious! Don't you wonder why the Room of Requirement can answer some requests but not others?"

"Meow, I'm curious." Chris nodded, "Then go and rest!"

"Ah."

"Put away your wands! You won't need them here. I don't expect you to really appreciate the beauty of a simmering cauldron with white smoke and fragrance. You don't really know how to flow into people The liquid in the veins, the magical power that makes the heart sway and the will blur... I can teach you how to confuse the mind, confuse the senses, win fame, brew glory, and even prevent death. But there must be one thing, that is, you are not me Just the kind of stupid fools you've come across all the time."

The next morning, Potions classroom.

Like a huge black owl, Professor Snape walked into the classroom.

His eyes swept over the anxious and excited faces of the thirty or so first-year students present.

He stopped for a while on the faces of two of them.One is Harry Potter, and the other is Lu Yunkai sitting alone in the back row.

His unique deep voice spoke words full of delusion, which made the whole classroom feel a suppressed restlessness.

Malfoy, with his sleek back hair, even looked at the servant beside him excitedly.

"I know some of you came to Hogwarts with some fame, so that you didn't pay much attention to what I said. For example..." Snape took a few steps and came to Hogwarts. In front of Harry, "Harry Potter, our new celebrity."

The atmosphere in the classroom suddenly became tense.

Could it be that Snape had a grudge against Harry?No matter how you listen to these words, they are all mocking!

Looking at what happened in front of him from a distance in the last row, Lu Yunkai frowned slightly.

"Tell me, what would I get if I added powdered daffodil root to an infusion of wormwood?" Snape asked.

"..." Harry opened his mouth, unable to answer.

Hermione, who was sitting next to him, raised her hand all of a sudden.

Only Snape couldn't see her.

"If I asked you to find me a piece of bezoar, where would you find it?" Snape asked the second question.

Harry still didn't answer.

"What's the difference between the boat-shaped aconitum and the wolfsbane aconitum?" Snape asked again.

"...I'm sorry, Professor, I don't know." Harry replied in a low voice.

"Unfortunately, sometimes fame and ability are not equal." Snape still had a dead face, as if he couldn't see the tall Hermione next to him, his eyes swept around the room again, "We The famous Harry Potter celebrities should learn from others, and don’t always think about relying on their fame to bluff.”

"I didn't!" Harry argued angrily.

"No?" Snape glanced at Lu Yunkai, and then continued to stare at Harry, "One of our students in Slytherin House had a very amazing father, but he never told anyone about it." But... I'm not talking about you, Draco."

As he spoke, he glared at the self-righteous Malfoy.

The scene was a little awkward for a while.

"Compared to the famous Harry, who got the gift of transfiguration from his father and managed to turn the key into a teacup in the first transfiguration class...well, I believe , he will definitely make achievements in Potions, because his father was my Potions teacher and the former Headmaster of Slytherin. Lu Yunkai!!"

"Yes!" Lu Yunkai, who was in embarrassment, was suddenly called out, startled.

"Don't let your father be ashamed because of you, prove that we Slytherin students are not deceived by false names."

"...Yes." Lu Yunkai glanced at Harry in embarrassment.

I said, Snape, you are sick! !What are you doing?Although Harry and I are not in the same college, we are still friends, okay?Once you come out like this, how can I keep in touch with him in the future? ?

Are you too much?

Although he complained a lot in his heart, he couldn't say it in front of the death-like Snape.

"Open the book to page No. 30." Snape coldly returned to his seat on the podium and sat down, glanced at the students present, "Scabies cure potion. This is your teaching content today. Read the operation steps in the book carefully for me. Alright, let's start."

There was a sound of flipping books in the classroom, and no one dared to speak.

Dried nettles, crushed snake fangs, steamed tentacled slugs, boiled together for half an hour, removed from heat and added with porcupine quills.

The production method is clearly stated in the book, and the precautions are also clearly written, except for one point.

Venom fangs are sold whole in pharmacies, and they need to be ground by themselves, so the question is, how crushed should they be?
The book doesn't make it very clear, because this stuff is not as fine as possible, it has something to do with the toxicity of each fang.

Although this will not affect the preparation of the potion, it will affect the grade of the potion.

Whether you can hold this speed is the so-called "talent".

However, Lu Yunkai felt that this thing is better called luck than talent.

Therefore, he didn't bother and think, just followed the steps in the book, boiled it step by step, cooled it, and then poured it into the red crystal potion bottle.

With a faint blue smoke coming out from the mouth of the potion bottle, accompanied by a faint buzzing sound, he became the first person to complete the potion.

"Lu Yunkai, have you finished?"

While the students were trying their best to make the potion according to the steps in the textbook, Snape sat quietly on the podium with a pen in his hand and didn't know what he was writing, but Lu Yun just finished the potion when he raised his head .

"I don't know if it's done." Lu Yunkai shook the potion bottle in his hand.

It was just being polite, and it turned out he already knew.

[First-level scabies treatment potion, one Galleon.Is it for sale? 】

"Let me see..." Professor Snape said as he got up and walked to the last row of the classroom.

All eyes in the classroom followed Snape to Lu Yunkai.

Taking the crystal bottle from Lu Yunkai's hand, Professor Snape first looked at it carefully, and then put it under his nose to smell it.

"Very beautiful! This scabies cure potion has reached the top-grade level." A light flashed in Snape's eyes.

"Thank you, Professor." Lu Yunkai smiled a little embarrassedly.

I just did it casually, as for being praised so much?

"Since the scabies cure potion is no longer difficult for you, and there is still some time before get out of class ends, are you interested in challenging another slightly more difficult potion?" Snape looked at Lu Yunkai with admiration.

"This...Okay." Lu Yunkai glanced at the other people in the room, and could only nod his head.

"Turn to page 177. Detumescence."

"...I'm sorry, professor, this seems to be a second-year potion, I don't have any materials..."

"It's okay. I'll give it to you." Snape took out his wand and waved it.

A pile of potion ingredients just flew over from the shelf in front of the classroom and landed on Lu Yunkai's desk.

"Professor, this is a potion that can only be prepared by the second grade..." Lu Yunkai retreated.

He is actually a little tired.

After all, in order to test the Room of Requirement this morning, he got up before three o'clock.

"Just try it, it's okay." Snape's tone sounded so amiable that Lu Yunkai was too embarrassed to refuse.

"Yes."

Lu Yunkai took back the potion bottle from Snape's hand, yawned secretly, and then got busy again according to the medicine method mentioned in the textbook.
