[HP] Prisoner of Nurmengard

Chapter 91 The Hidden Secret of Plants

After being cornered by Red and Draco, unlike Severus' embarrassment, Gellert seemed very calm, still stuck by Severus's side every day, and took advantage of every opportunity he had.On this day, Gellert managed to lure Severus to bed, and just as he was gnawing on Severus' neck, Chigrove knocked on the door.

Severus quickly pushed Gellert away, got up and straightened his clothes before opening the door, Gellert sat on the bed with a dark face and said nothing, no man can maintain a good mood when he is interrupted .Chigrove didn't look sideways, as if he didn't know anything, he handed a letter and a package to Severus solemnly, "Your Highness, this is from Lord Voldemort."

Rising stars like Chigrove, who were cultivated by Severus, were not as afraid of Voldemort as the previous generation in the wizarding world. Although they still maintained a sense of awe, they were not afraid to say his name.These things Severus was most satisfied with this group of people, no matter whether they were in awe of Gellert and Voldemort or not, he was their master.

Severus opened the letter. This wasn't the first letter or package Voldemort had sent me since he went to the Muggle world, but this time it was obviously different.Most of the things he found interesting from Voldemort before, he sent to Severus to share, this time he came to ask Severus for help.The plant he'd seen in the village, and he'd sent samples for Severus to help identify.

Severus raised his eyebrows, and went directly to the laboratory with the package. As for Gellert, who was sitting on the bed, who still remembered his who.Gellert's face darkened even more when he saw Severus walking swiftly.Chigrove didn't seem to see Gellert's expression, and bowed to him with his usual expression, "If you have no other orders, I'll take my leave first."

Gellert snorted expressionlessly. Among the people around Severus, Chigrove was the one he disliked the most. Maybe it was because he was around Severus most often?Of course, perhaps Chigrove was the one who was most loyal to Severus, otherwise he wouldn't have let this person stay with Severus all day long.

Speaking of which, Severus is still Chigrov's savior. Chigrov is a half-breed British and Russian. Although he is a pure-blood wizard, because he lived in Russia when he was a child, the strong Russian atmosphere made him very uncomfortable. British life.And his British classmates also looked at him strangely, and some students of the robbery foursome even played tricks on him.

Although Chigrove has good qualifications, he was born in an ordinary family and did not receive much preschool education. In addition, he was often bullied by others, especially his parents were divorced, and neither side was happy to raise him. he.After graduating from Hogwarts, although he stayed in England, he was very confused about his future.

On the day he graduated from Hogwarts, it was a big blow to him that his father, who was an English wizard, was very happy to tell him that he was an adult and could live independently, let him Don't go to him again.Holding the gold Galleons that his father gave him, which was enough for him to live in England for a year, Chigrove lost his direction for his future.

He walked down the streets of Diagon Alley in a daze, not knowing where he could go. During these years at Hogwarts, he had no friends, but those friends were not good enough to take him in.Walking, he unknowingly came to Knockturn Alley.A young and defenseless wizard like him is simply the first choice for those dark wizards in Knockturn Alley.

Just when he was besieged by a dark wizard and was about to die when his magic power ran out, Severus, who happened to come to Knockturn Alley to find potion materials, passed by and rescued him.At that time, Severus was looking for talents. Hearing about his experience and knowing that he was born in Slytherin, he had some direct emotions after seeing the past, so he gave him a chance.

And Chigrove is obviously a person who will seize the opportunity. As a Slytherin, after a short period of confusion, he quickly discarded everything in the past.With a new direction, he quickly stood out among the many young wizards trained by Severus. Because of his outstanding ability in etiquette and interpersonal communication, Severus kept him by his side as a personal butler Role.

Chigrove did not disappoint Severus either, he handled Severus's personal affairs in an orderly manner, especially in the social relationship that Severus didn't like, and played a very important role.As a result, Severus was even more satisfied with him, and now his position in Severus' heart was irreplaceable, and even Gellert was actually very satisfied with him.

After Chigrove left, Gellert finally got up from the bed and followed Severus into the laboratory.By the time Gellert arrived at the lab, Severus had unwrapped the package and pulled out the plant samples Voldemort had sent.This was not an uncommon plant, and after just one glance, Severus probably had a clue in his mind.

Rejecting the glove offered by Gellert, Severus directly picked up a leaf with his hand to observe, and even tore a small piece of it under Gellert's disapproving gaze, tasted it, and came to a general conclusion in his heart.He pushed Gellert's hand away and said, "It should be poppy, it doesn't matter, it won't be poisonous." Although poppy leaves contain alkaloids, how much can this little amount contain?

Seeing Severus' indifferent expression, Gellert was full of helplessness, and finally could only stay aside and watch him busy, helping him from time to time.He managed to finish processing those documents ahead of time. Could it be that the day he had spared was just to watch Severus do experiments?Sure enough, the brother-in-law or something is deliberately against him, right? !

Here Severus was busy with identification, while Voldemort returned to the small village again.When they came to the village this time, perhaps because it was the weekend, they didn't see anyone like last time. When they walked to the entrance of the village, they happened to see a few children playing in the grain drying field.This made Voldemort even more surprised. Could it be that except for children, everyone in the village was dead?

This time they came directly to the village chief Tony's house, and seeing them coming, Tony seemed very happy, "Mr. Voldemort, welcome, I've been waiting for you for a long time." Tony asked his wife about investment considerations while making his wife make tea. What's going on, only money can make Tony so enthusiastic.

Voldemort's eyes flashed, and he said with a smile: "Investment is not a problem, but I have some things I want to discuss with the village chief." He is determined to win the swamp forest, so investing in this village is essential Yes, but before investing, he must control the village in order to be at ease.

Tony's wife hurriedly got up and said to prepare lunch. Although Natasha didn't like the feeling of being excluded, she obediently got up to help in order not to annoy Voldemort.Although Dario was an insider, he didn't show too special thoughts. He didn't want to go to the kitchen with the two women, so he made an excuse to go out to get some air.

It wasn't until he and Tony were left in the room that Voldemort smiled slightly and said, "The plants we saw at the end of the cave that day weren't as simple as poppies, were they?" Although Severus' test results hadn't come yet , but Voldemort has already successfully grasped that those plants are not easy, and now he is just testing Tony.

Tony's face changed slightly imperceptibly, but he calmed down quickly, and smiled: "I don't know much about it. Although I am from the mountains, that kind of plant is not common here, and I am not very knowledgeable. A well-informed botanist. If Mr. Voldemort knows the identity of that plant, please tell me, the plant that has been hidden in the mountains for many years and has not been discovered by anyone is amazing."

Listening to Tony's serious words, Voldemort still smiled calmly, "I don't know exactly what that plant is, but I have already sent a sample of that plant to my brother's laboratory. He is testing it, and I believe it will soon There will be results." Voldemort wasn't completely cheating on Tony, Severus did have a big laboratory in the Muggle world.

Although this laboratory was not well-known among the low-level people, it was entirely because Severus didn't like those flashy names.No matter in terms of scale, equipment, and concentrated talents, this laboratory is well-known in the Muggle world. In the scientific world and high society, everyone knows about Severus' laboratory.

This time, although Tony was a little apprehensive in his heart, his expression didn't show too much. No matter whether Voldemort could discover the secret of this plant, he was already planning to play dumb to the end.Even if that plant is really extremely evil, as long as it has nothing to do with him, he is still the head of the village, and he can still enjoy all the conveniences brought by this status.

Seeing this, Voldemort's eyes flashed, and he lightly threw out the real blockbuster that he had prepared, "I heard that Mr. Primo, the commercial officer of this town, has a large amount of unexplained financial transactions, Mr. Village Chief You have such a good relationship with Mr. Primo, so you must know what's going on?" Voldemort smiled meaningfully.

Tony's complexion finally changed completely. He looked at Voldemort in bewilderment, not knowing what to say or how much Voldemort knew.The silence lasted for a long time, until he heard Tony's wife shout loudly that lunch was ready, Tony seemed to be woken up, and he said with difficulty: "Mr. Voldemort, what do you want me to do?"

After the initial panic, Tony quickly realized that if Voldemort's purpose was to inform him, there was no need to talk to him about it.Since Voldemort assumed a negotiating stance, there must be something that needs his help. Although being held hostage doesn't feel good, Tony is indeed relieved to know that his actions will not be made public.

"I do need you to do things for me, but before that, stop what you are doing, as long as things are done well, money is just a number to me." Voldemort said, looking into Tony's eyes.After hearing the name poppies, he has checked the relevant information. Among the plants similar to poppies, there is a very special one, that is - poppies!
