Professor of Pharmacy at Hogwarts

Chapter 270, Full Moon Night

The next day, Alexis slept until three o'clock in the morning before getting up.

Fortunately, he only has one class today and can continue to sleep after class.

There is nothing much to say about the fourth grade curriculum. Alexis has already prepared lesson plans, and the fourth grade students are already familiar with classroom disciplines.

Apart from the frequent grateful looks from Cedric, there were no surprises in the whole class.

After class and a stormy lunch in the restaurant, Alexis continued to fall asleep.

After sleeping until sunset, Alexis got up unsteadily.

After sitting on the bed for a while, Alexis patted her cheek, changed her clothes and rushed out.

Today is the night of the full moon!

Lupin's Wolfsbane Potion Moderator hasn't been mixed yet!

He rushed into the office in a hurry, hurriedly and slowly, and finally knocked on Lupin's office with a bottle before sunset.

"It's not too late, is it?"

Alexis asked as the door opened.

Lupine shook his head and stepped aside.

Alexis walked into the office and looked back at Lupine. He seemed very tired, his eyeballs were bloodshot, and his whole person exuded a depressed atmosphere.

Alexis didn't care. Every full moon transformation was a drain on the werewolf itself.

After being bitten by a werewolf, a normal person seems to be injected with some kind of substance. This substance remains dormant in the werewolf's body under normal circumstances. Until the full moon, they are activated, causing the werewolf to fall into a state of excitement and continue to consume the werewolf's energy. Physical strength, until the end of the full moon.

This substance is somewhat similar to the stimulants invented by Muggles.

Alexis didn't know that in a certain corner, someone had already proposed this conjecture and was preparing to experiment to extract this substance from the werewolf's body. They imagined that they could create a controllable "werewolf transformation."

"Let's go."

Now that Lupine has wolfsbane potion and demulcent, he naturally does not have to hide in the Shrieking Shack every full moon like he did when he was in school. However, for the sake of safety, Lupine will still choose a safe and secluded place during the full moon. Stay in place to prevent accidents.

The Wolfsbane potion itself needs to be taken three days in advance, and after taking the Wolfsbane potion, the werewolf will become weak and unable to move during the full moon.

Through the blending of Alexis's demulcent agent, the properties of the wolfsbane potion are neutralized, which can inhibit the werewolf's transformation and relieve the general weakness to a certain extent.

What Alexis wants to do tonight is to spend "a less difficult night" with Lupine.

Lupine put on his jacket, and the two of them left Hogwarts one after another and rushed towards Hogsmeade.

Alexis has a house in Hogsmeade village, next door to Christie. It is very quiet and usually not disturbed by people. It is a good place to spend a full moon night.

I bought some food for dinner on the way. By the time the two people arrived, it was already getting dark.

Alexis glanced at the neighbor next door. It was dark and no one was home.

Unlocking the door and entering the house, Lu Ping tremblingly took out the Wolfsbane potion and drank it, then drank the demulcent, closed his eyes, and gradually calmed down.

When he opened his eyes, most of the bloodshot eyes were gone, which made Alexis sigh in relief.

The two finished their dinner in silence, and Lupine walked into the bedroom and lay down without saying a word.

Every full-moon night, Lupine's mood would become depressed even if he didn't transform. He didn't like to talk. At this time, it was very likely that he would remain silent for the entire night, or even last for several days.

Alexis was used to this situation and didn't take it seriously.

When he was in school, there was no wolfsbane potion for Lupine to use. Every full moon night, he had to endure it all by himself. Before and after the full moon, James and the others would carefully accompany Lupine, waiting for Lupine to slowly Recover from depression.

Alexis didn't understand why Lupine was like this at the time, and couldn't help but ask several times, but was blocked by James again.

Lupine was resting in the bedroom, and Alexis was sitting on the sofa in the living room, holding a letter and reading it slowly.

The first was Randolph's letter, which reported the sales of Firebolts as usual. Apart from a lot of numbers and technical terms that made Alexis dizzy, it had no nutritional value.

Randolph didn't know what Alexis was planning to do through Quidditch. Although he was vaguely aware that Alexis's purpose was not pure, he never asked and pretended that he didn't know.

Next is Lucius's letter. This letter is much longer. In addition to reporting on the sales of Firebolts, it also includes the impact of Firebolts on Quidditch and the cooperation with the Artillery Team.

After receiving sponsorship from Alexis, the Artillery Team prepared to recruit and sign several outstanding athletes to enhance the team's strength and join the championship competition queue.

Lucius is not optimistic about this, not only Lucius is not optimistic, Alexis, a layman, is not optimistic either.

A team that is ranked last at the end of the schedule wants to compete for the championship through a short period of team strengthening. Are you too confident or do you not take other teams seriously?

In addition, Lucius also mentioned several potential cooperative teams that were also inspected and made a list to prepare for the expansion of sponsored teams.

Finally, Lucius mentioned that Nimbus seems to be preparing to launch a new flying broomstick, which is said to be called Nimbus 2001.

The new Nimbus series is based on the Nimbus 2000 and has been modified to increase balance and safety. It is said that the performance is no worse than the Firebolt and the price is the same as the Nimbus 2000.

Lucius inquired that the Nimbus Racing Broom Company was planning to launch a "trade-in" event. With Nimbus 2000 + 10 Galleons, you can exchange for a Nimbus 2001. Each person is limited to one purchase.

This is obviously coming for the Firebolt.

And according to Lucius, the Nimbus Racing Broom Company is coming in force. Even before the product is launched, they have been repeatedly comparing the Firebolt to the Firebolt, saying that Nimbus 2001 is superior to the Firebolt, and constantly riding on the popularity of the Firebolt.

Their publicity method has achieved very good results. According to Lucius's survey, the market's expectations for Nimbus 2001 are now high, and it has even boosted the sales of Nimbus 2000.

After reading this, Alexis sneered, took out the stationery and wrote a letter to Lucius, asking Lucius to arrange for people to buy Nimbus 2000 in large quantities. Once Nimbus 2001 is on the market, he will immediately have people exchange Nimbus 2000 for it.

After writing the letter, Alexis did not send it immediately, but thought about it silently.

Judging from the actions of the Nimbus Racing Broom Company, they should have learned this trick from the Muggle world, but they did not learn the essence, but left many loopholes.

So Alexis wouldn't have left a loophole herself?

Alexis did not consider himself an omniscient and omnipotent god, and he was bound to leave loopholes.

After all, they are all learning from the Muggle world, but so far he has learned more like Nimbus Racing Broomsticks than Nimbus Racing Broomsticks, so he can seize the loopholes of Nimbus Racing Broomsticks and attack them.

But maybe one day a being who is more similar to what he learned will appear. What should he do then?

Alexis felt that instead of just copying the gourd, it would be better to use the real one.

What could be more like learning it from the Muggles themselves?
