Harry Potter's Bastard

"Alright, students, it's time!" Slughorn clapped his hands.

Many of the students resigned themselves to their movements, and even those who didn't know anything about potions could tell how bad their potions were. Some of the students' potions were not finished, but it seemed like it was only a matter of time, while others were just too much to see.

Slughorn couldn't stop shaking his head as he looked at Ernie's cauldron, and Ron's pot had no intention of letting him get closer. After looking around, Slughorn returned to the middle of the classroom so that the students could see him.

"I have to say that you guys have exceeded my expectations. "There were four students in the class who completed the potion as required – and Solim did it ahead of schedule, and it was perfect." Mr. Malfoy and Miss Granger...... And, of course, you, Harry, you've done a good job. "

Slughorn didn't even look at the other students, as if they didn't exist.

"But I think I'm going to have to give the prize to Solim. Slughorn smiled at Harry, "His work is impeccable. "

The students present glanced at Solim and said nothing. When they reached the later stages of potion brewing, when many people had already given up, they realized that something was wrong, for example, Ron and Ernie noticed that Harry and Hermione glanced at Solim from time to time, and then they were surprised to find that Harry and Hermione's potion was quite complete. And then he began to regret why he was not clever and stared at Solim's movements like Harry did from the beginning.

"You should have reminded me. As soon as the class ended, Ron complained to Harry.

Hermione rolled her eyes, if she had her old temper, she would have to count Ron down. But now she didn't bother to bother with Ron. She was standing in the doorway of the classroom waiting for Solim to come out.

Solim, on the other hand, was a chicken thief, and after getting the elixir from Slughorn, he swept a pile of old books from the cabinet at the door into his bag while he was cleaning up the mess in the classroom with his back.

Solim wasn't that interested in Snape's Potions textbooks when he was a student, after all, no matter how talented Snape was, his attainments in potions when he was a student were definitely not as good as those Potions masters. Thanks to the Selwyns, Solim's collection contained a number of potions books and codexes, and he was only interested in Snape's potions textbooks.

He hadn't gone out of his way to find the textbooks Snape had used in the past, but when he did, Solim wouldn't mind taking them over and looking at them.

As soon as he stepped out of the classroom door, Solim saw Hermione waiting for him.

"Why is your method more efficient than in the book?" Hermione is this kind of character, straight to the point.

"Those are just very basic things. Solim lifted his bag, a little heavy.

"The basics?" Hermione looked at him suspiciously.

"That's right, if you want to improve the preparation of potions, there are a few things you can start with: one is the processing of materials, such as whether the sleepy beans are cut or pressed, this kind of area is efficient, you must have experienced it yourself, and there are some small details in the boiling process, such as the control of the heat, the stirring process, and even the selection of utensils, such as the material of the stirring rod or crucible, or the order of the materials...... These will determine the efficiency of the configuration process and the effectiveness of the finished potion. "

"But...... What you say will change the potion's effect - such as failure or direct poison. Just like a painkiller, it is toxic when boiled over low heat. Hermione gave an example.

"That's true, but this change to the potion configuration process does work. "But this kind of change is impossible without a deep foundation in potions and a very solid foundation, and even then, it takes a lot of time, energy, and Galleons to make that small change." "

"But you did. "

"Don't think too much of me. Solim shook his head, "I'm just standing on the shoulders of giants, and I wouldn't be able to do that if I hadn't read all kinds of books." "

"Giants?" Harry asked.

"It's not the 'giant' you think, it's a figure of speech. Solim looked at Harry speechlessly, this kid is also pitiful, he has not received a Muggle basic education," Isaac. Newton said—"

"You know Newton!" Unlike Hermione, Hermione was an exclamation point in her head.

"Oh my God, I'm not a primitive, I still know Sir Newton's name. Solim helplessly lifted his forehead.

"What are you talking about?" Draco looked confused, he understood every word they said, but he just didn't know what Solim was talking about.

Looking at this circle, Weasley was raised in a wizarding family, and so was Draco, and it was obviously unrealistic for them to hear Newton's name, and although Harry had lived in a Muggle family, he obviously didn't get the education he deserved. Only Hermione could understand this.

"But......" Hermione opened her mouth, but finally gave up.

"Who's that?Which Potions Master?" Draco was still trying to keep up.

"No, it's not. He is a scientist. Solim reached into his robe, "And then Harry—"

Seeing a small object thrown by Solim, Harry grabbed it with agility.

"Oh my God! it's a magic potion!" Ron looked at the vial in Harry's hand in shock.

"You're going to give it to me?" Harry looked at Solim in disbelief.

"I think you'll probably be able to use it in the future. Solim shrugged, "Besides—I already have one." "

"You just threw it to him?" Hermione came back to her senses, her face flustered, "What if he doesn't catch it? What if the bottle falls to the ground and breaks?"

Hermione looked at the golden bottle in Harry's hand, then at Solim, and began to babble.

"Please, Hermione, don't be so nervous. "Solim noticed that something was wrong with Hermione today," Harry was a Seeker, and if he was so close, he couldn't even catch a bottle, and he was playing a fart Quidditch. "

"Besides—"

As soon as Solim stretched out his hand, the bottle in Harry's hand flew into his hand without warning.

"Didn't you see this little trick like the Wandless Levitation Charm when you were in first grade?"

With that, Solim's hand loosened, and the bottle containing the elixir began to fall under the influence of gravity, and suddenly stopped when it was about to touch the hard floor tiles, and then returned to Solim's hand again.

"You see, even if Harry hadn't caught it, the little bottle wouldn't have had any chance of breaking. "_
