The Extraordinary Apothecary at Hogwarts

"The shape control of the flame, the way it is arranged at the bottom of the crucible, the application of different flame colors..."

Sissy read the contents of the book carefully, and quickly understood Snape's purpose for letting her practice Transfiguration.

"I have to try it first, to what extent I can do it now."

So Sissy walked to the corridor outside the classroom, and pointed to a ball of dancing flames above the stone slab, but the fist-sized fire was obviously not helpful for the slow fire to simmer.

"Shrink, shrink, and make it smaller."

She tried to control it, and indeed succeeded in shrinking it a little bit. If it continues like this, it will definitely change into a suitable...

The flame gradually shortened in length, but suddenly changed its color, and couldn't even maintain its shape. The surrounding air seemed to lose its convection effect, and the flame turned into a spherical shape.

Sissy frowned tightly, this is going to go out directly, no, it needs to be boosted a little bit.

The magic wand emitted a beam of light, entering into the dimmed fire mass, the tongue of flame suddenly sprang up and danced against Sissy's cheek.

It's over, can such a high tongue of flame be controlled again? Sissy reused the method of shrinking the flame just now. As soon as the fire was controlled a little, it immediately rebounded and jumped higher, and sparks flew out at the same time.

"Professor, no, I got into trouble." Seeing that she couldn't delay any longer, she shouted as soon as she ran back to the office.

"What did you do?"

"I... I lit a ball of fire, and it got bigger and bigger, and it couldn't be extinguished." Sissy said quickly.

"You—forget it." Snape glared at Sissy, strode out and extinguished the flame that was nearly one person tall, and cleaned up the blackened traces on the stone wall along the way.

"Sorry Professor, I shouldn't have tried that."

"You should be thankful that you are not stupid enough to do such a thing in the study, and that you didn't set yourself on fire."

Snape took a closer look and said, he knew Sissy ran very fast, but there were a few small holes burned in her robe.

"You haven't even learned how to walk yet, but you've already started running? Honestly go practice Transfiguration, and I'll allow you to do this only if you can pass the test."

Sissy agreed repeatedly, she just wanted to give it a try, thinking that if she could practice well, it would be more convenient to make potions in the future, she didn't expect her level to be so far behind.

Sissy returned to the room with some disappointment. She had tried her best to learn during this time. After reading so many books, she really wanted to try what she had learned.

"Sigh, it's not easy to learn potions. You have to master all kinds of abilities."

Scarpin's Appearance Curse, Elimination of Miscellaneous Curse, and the method of changing the flames were all unable to be used due to lack of control, which seriously hindered Sissy's progress in potions.

The professor also said that there are no shortcuts.Practice hard, isn't that what you came to Hogwarts to learn.

Sissy flipped through the notes she completed before, and started to practice again from the first lesson when the match turned into a silver needle.

Gradually making the chopstick-sized "silver needle" smaller and sharper, Sissy gradually found some sense of tacit understanding with the magic wand, making her power more comfortable to use.

The wand accompanies her, and they seem to be distressed and trying to improve together. The more times they repeat, the more obedient the wand is.

"So cute." Sissy touched the tip of the stick and was very satisfied. What Mr. Ollivander said was true. As long as you work hard enough, it is the best choice to accompany your growth.

"When my wand likes me enough, if someone snatches it forcibly, hehe." In Sissy's mind, the image of Snape being electrocuted when he accidentally picked it up appeared in Sissy's mind.

Really, the professor certainly knows the characteristics of laurel wood, how could he be shocked by the electric shock foolishly, Sissy shook her head and abandoned this unrealistic idea.

But I'm really looking forward to it, the rumored electric shock or something, I can try another person when I get a chance.

Sissy walked out of the room with her newly transformed silver needle. Although it was not as sharp as an embroidery needle, it was still a normal needle, not the size specially designed for Hagrid.

"Professor," Sissy saw that Snape was still correcting his homework with a sad face, "would you like to take a break, you see I just changed, it's not bad!"

Snape put down the quill, rubbed his eyes and looked up, "Oh? There is indeed progress."

Sissy grinned, and glanced at the homework on the desk, it seemed that there was still a pile of homework that hadn't been turned over.

"Why are there so many homework to be corrected today?"

"Well, I just treated them less politely at the beginning of school. Who knew that after the latest round of tests, all the things I learned before have been returned to me."

Sissy went to pour a glass of water and handed it over, "Professor, why don't you add a few drops of medicine to refresh yourself."

"No, I won't use the potion in unnecessary places, but if they can be more accurate, I should have finished it long ago."

Snape took the glass and took a sip, seeing what was in the glass, "Huh? Added peppermint."

"It's also safe to use directly, so I think it might have some effect. Didn't I learn this from you?"

Cici likes to pick a piece of mint and put it under her nose. It is cool and comfortable, and of course soaking in water is also good.

"How did you learn this? Don't add weird potions to me in the future."

"That's definitely not the case. By the way, professor, if you are free for a while, can you teach me how to extract the essence of white meat." There are a lot of white meat in Sissy's package.

"Why do you ask this suddenly? You don't mean you want to do something, do you?"

Snape squinted his eyes, this little baby didn't know what was going on in his head, he actually needed to use white essence, so he probably wouldn't do something dangerous.

"How can I be a professor, I just think this is a great healing potion, and the production method is also novel. I have never tried the method of extracting the essence."

Sissy quickly explained that she did it on purpose, but why did the professor suddenly think that she had ulterior motives?

"It's in the storage room. If you want, I can give you a bottle."

"Professor, I really want to learn, what's the use of giving it to me directly." Sissy smelled the smell of fishing law enforcement from it.

"That's fine, if you behave well."

"Be sure to behave well, then professor, you are busy first, I will go to the next door to make some potions, I will be rusty if I haven't done it for a long time."

This is indeed the case. Before the injury was not healed, there was no way to do it, but now I can finally let go of my hands and feet to do it.Well, as long as it doesn't explode.

"Go, the experience of groping for yourself is very important."

Sissy figured maybe she should try a sleeping pill first, so she pulled out some lavender, standard ingredients, Flobberworm slime, and valerian.

This process is more complicated than the two potions I have done before, especially the part of waving the wand is added in the middle of the process, which is very important for the final result.
