The Chinese girl from Hufflepuff is both timid and brave

Sun Zhu gave the task of keeping an eye on Draco to Tongzi, because she didn't have the energy to keep staring at him. Moreover, if he saw her looking at him for a second longer, he would want to show his teeth in protest, but he would often run away at the speed of light after she looked at him.

It was childish to the extreme. She was afraid that her act of scaring Lucius would cause Draco to have a stress reaction, so now she simply pretended not to see him.

"In fact, his father gave him an order to keep an eye on you whenever he is free. After all, you pretended to be Salazar's successor before..."

Tongzi explained reluctantly that he knew his host had been obsessed with studying recently and had no time to pay attention to many things, but he knew the reasons for some things. After all, these were all key figures that could affect the main storyline, and he could check on the situation one by one.

"Why didn't he come here to confirm it himself, but had to send his son?" Sun Zhu was puzzled while flipping through the runic dictionary. "If he came here to see it with his own eyes, he would know that I lied to him. Is there any successor as miserable as me who can't finish his homework every day?"

"Because the basilisk was watching him... The basilisk said that if he dared to act rashly, it would kill his wife and son, so he didn't dare to go to Hogwarts again. He didn't even dare to ask Snape questions, because he was afraid that his owl had also been monitored."

This was indeed the case, and Tongzi felt a little proud for some reason.

"I'm not that good... Hey, if I had that ability, I'd just go grab a few top students to do my homework for me—"

"He can only tell his son during the Christmas holidays to pay more attention to you and Harry in the future, saying that you are useful to the Malfoy family and he should try to establish a connection with you. If we can't be friends, we can't offend you either."

"This mission is too difficult." Sun Zhu shook his head. "Anyway, I don't want to be friends with a kid who talks too much. But if they can behave themselves, the threat of the basilisk will only remain at the level of intimidation."

"So, according to my guess, Malfoy probably didn't deliberately expose Harry and the others' secret, and it's unlikely that he would go and complain to others..." Tongzi said, "I will keep an eye on his movements for you. If he plans to complain, I will report to you immediately."

"He'd better not do this. I'm almost unable to finish my homework. If he delays me from finishing my paper, I will knock him out with a stick and then throw him to Peeves. There are no surveillance cameras here anyway." Sun Zhu smiled evilly like a bully, but soon made a bitter face and continued to write with the quill.

After entering the spring semester, several professors who originally had a relatively gentle teaching style went crazy.

The practical difficulty of the herbal medicine class was increasing, the theoretical knowledge was increasing, the recitation was becoming more and more complicated, and the differences between the types of herbs were becoming smaller and smaller. Every day, she stared at the not-so-clear pictures in the wizard textbooks, trying to identify the subtle differences between the various herbs.

It's like asking a city kid to distinguish wheat seedlings, chive seedlings, and weeds. At first glance, everything is confusing. If you try hard, you still have a chance to distinguish them, but if you don't pay attention, you will make mistakes again.

This is the case even for the class of the gentlest Professor Sprout, not to mention the other professors.

Professor McGonagall's severity went up a level. Transfiguration, which was not easy to begin with, had reached hell mode. The lower grades had originally mainly practiced the transformation of inanimate objects or the transformation of small animals, but now it had almost become a transformation between two living things.

If they are not careful, a bloody murder could occur... Fortunately, Professor McGonagall's superb Transfiguration skill can protect them.

Although Fina has been working hard on this, she can only barely complete her weekly homework.

Fortunately, even if they couldn't keep up, they wouldn't be punished. Sun Zhu felt that Professor McGonagall was conducting a selection rather than teaching them.

The spells were the course that gave her the most respite, because they were so practical that she had already learned a lot of spells that were only learned in higher grades. Moreover, with the practice of other subjects, her magic power was enhanced, and the effects of the spells she cast became better and better.

For example, when using the Repairing Charm to repair broken cups and accidentally damaged parchment scrolls, the speed is getting faster and faster, and the previous signs of damage are almost invisible; when the Healing Charm is used to deal with abrasions and swellings during Quidditch games, the pain caused by the side effects is getting milder and milder, and recovery is getting faster and faster, and it can often be solved by itself without the use of Dictamni; the Cleansing Charm can now be used to wash hands and cool down during breaks in games. The weather is getting hotter and the Quidditch uniforms are getting thinner, but training still has to go on.

Professor Flitwick had once given some pointers at Sun Zhu's request. He was surprised that a third-year student was already using Qingshui Ruquan so frequently. He burst out laughing when he learned of Sun Zhu's intention.

"The Water Spell is actually a long-distance summoning spell. Of course, even wizards can't create water out of thin air. Some very talented students can learn this spell quickly, but they can't bring out the effect it should have."

Professor Flitwick explained that wizards with strong enough magic power could use the Water Purification Charm as an offensive skill. They could summon any known water source at will, such as the drinking water in the Hogwarts kitchen, the water of the Black Lake, the water of the Thames, and even the water of the Atlantic Ocean.

The source, distance and quantity of the summoning can all be controlled, and even their form after being summoned can be determined, whether it forms a column of water or turns into a piece of ice, which is entirely determined by the wizard's own will and power.

Sun Zhu almost immediately thought of Professor Dumbledore's "Water Prison Curse", a powerful water magic that could counter the Fierce Fire Curse. It had extremely strong control, could interrupt spells and cause dizziness, and could even drown the target.

However, this is at Dumbledore's level. Ordinary wizards can only use ordinary water spells. After using the spring water, they can only randomly summon a nearby water source for their own use.

Sun Zhu finally understood why this seemingly common spell was not taught until the fifth grade. This undoubtedly required strong control and willpower, otherwise he could only find some water to wash his hands and wipe his face.

Professor Flitwick did not laugh at the students who were running around while learning spells. He only said meaningfully: "Since your magic power is not sufficient at the moment, the water you summoned is most likely the water from the Black Lake. Although this spell will have a certain purification effect, it is still not recommended for you to drink it."

Sun Zhu covered her face and sighed. She finally understood that entering the "second semester of the third grade" for wizards was almost equivalent to going from a Muggle elementary school to a junior high school.
