HP: By the lake of Snake Garden, flowers bloom on the other side

On the way to the Dean's Office, Theodore Nott kept thinking about why Professor Snape asked him to go.

He wasn't like Draco to cause trouble. Could it be that the professor wanted to know why Lycoris was not in a good state recently?

So how should you answer? You must have said nothing.

Theodore Nott thought a lot and then knocked on the office door.

"Enter."

The boy opened the door and saw the professor reading. He glanced at them and saw that they were all books that lifted the curse.

Theodore Nott took the initiative and said, "Professor, I just met the prefect, and he said you were looking for me."

Professor studying curses? Why study this?

Is it related to Licoris? Or maybe it has to do with her being in a bad state? Wasn't it because of the Triwizard Tournament that she was abnormal?

"I asked you to sit down." Snape motioned for him to sit down, and Nott sat obediently on the sofa.

"Lickles said that she studied the magic circle with you during the summer vacation. Can you lend me the book?" Snape remembered the way his daughter got along with Pansy and took out a bottle of magic potion from the inside of his plain robe. "This is treatment. A potion to relieve bites from magical creatures.”

Injuries caused by magical creatures are difficult to heal, just like Draco's arm injury - many people thought Draco was deliberately pretending to be injured, but as a roommate, Theodore still knew that he was really injured.

"Dean, are you studying the curse?" Nott said, "I'm sorry, I just saw you reading the book on how to solve the curse."

Use the angle of the magic circle to break the spell? What magical creature is summoned?

Snape knew that the child in front of him was precocious and didn't want to say anything to make him guess, so he simply admitted the matter.

"This is the payment for borrowing books." Snape pointed at the potion.

"Okay, Professor, I'll get it for you now." Nott stood up, picked up the small bottle on the table and went back to the boys' dormitory.

Nott moved a lot of books from home that could be taken out to the study room. As for the books that couldn't be taken out, he naturally didn't take them with him.

Snape borrowed the Nott family's books because he knew the old Nott's deeds. His family had an extremely rich collection of books on the magic circle.

He wanted to create a teleporting magic circle that would appear next to his daughter when she was killing someone using the Hawthorn Basilisk Nerve Wand.

How could she kill someone with her own hands?

Even if the other party is a Death Eater, she shouldn't be the one to solve it.

Snape speculated that the Triwizard Tournament might be like the Quidditch World Cup, with Death Eaters targeting Harry in the maze.

Not a lot, but...

Snape looked at his arm, and the Dark Mark under his plain robes became more and more obvious.

They must be the Death Eaters who are following Voldemort now.

Severus Snape was worried that his daughter and Harry would be at a disadvantage because his daughter was so young and Harry had never killed anyone.

"Professor, I brought them all." Theodore Nott opened his box and took out the books.

Snape looked at the messy books on the desk and decided to put them in the cupboard.

"Professor, do you also read Muggle books?" Theodore Nott followed Professor Snape and put the books into his cabinet, and saw that there were also many Muggle books in it.

"If Mr. Nott loves learning, he will be just like Lycoris." Snape only said one sentence, naming the owner of the book.

Licolis likes to read some Muggle books, and the genres are quite diverse.

"The Encyclopedia of Folklore from Various Countries? Can I read this? Professor?" Nott pointed at a book with a colorful cover.

"You can ask its owner."

Theodore returned to the dormitory with the box and saw Draco.

"Theodore, why are you going out with the box?" Draco asked doubtfully, "Aren't all your precious books here?"

"I lent it to the professor." Theodore bent down and stuffed the empty box back under the bed and sat on the bed. "I found that Licoris really loved reading. She filled up the professor's bookshelf."

Licolis loved to read, Draco knew that, but the books filling the professor's bookshelf...

Sounds interesting?

"What book is it?" Draco asked Theodore with interest.

"The Encyclopedia of Folklore from Various Countries and the like," Theodore began to arrange the bedside table, then picked up the books on the table and shook them at Draco, "and this kind of Muggle hypnosis."

Muggle hypnosis?

Draco remembered the time he used his gold watch to hypnotize Licoris, and she pretended to be hypnotized to tease herself.

She also said Draco was my lover.
