Hogwarts: I Am Such a Model Wizard

Chapter 206 Why is Quirrell still alive?

“We went and talked to Hagrid for a while, and you knew who Nicoléme was?”

In the Gryffindor common room, Ron never expected that Hermione would give them such a big surprise just after he and Harry came back.

"Which book did you find it in?" Harry asked.

 “On Dumbledore’s chocolate frog card!”

Hermione said angrily: "You two talk about how many cards you have collected every day, but no one knows!"

Hearing what Hermione said, Harry was slightly startled and suddenly took a breath of cold air. No wonder he always felt that he had seen this name somewhere. Now that he remembered it, it was on the train.

 Dumbledore was the first card he collected.

 “Also, I found this.”

 Hermione took out another thick and large old book and began to turn the pages quickly in front of the two of them.

“Nicholas Flamel is the only known maker of the Philosopher’s Stone!”

 “What stone?” Harry and Ron asked at the same time.

"Oh, what's going on? Don't you two usually read... read it yourself!"

Hermione pushed the book to them and continued: "I dare say that big dog must be guarding the Sorcerer's Stone."

Harry and Ron are like two novices who were led to the dungeon by a max-level boss. They just finished reading the guide given by the boss, and when they looked up, they found that they had already completed the level.

Hermione not only found Nicolas Flamel, she even guessed what was hidden under the trap door.

The Philosopher's Stone...no wonder Snape was thinking about it.

A stone can turn gold and make people immortal. No matter who it is, they will want to get it.

"What about you two..." Hermione closed the book, "Has Hagrid said what happened yesterday?"

"No." Ron shook his head in frustration: "Hagrid refused to say, and no matter how we asked, he didn't reveal any information."

“But we found that Hagrid seemed to be injured.” Harry thought for a moment and said, “There is a bottle of white essence in his house. I remember learning about it in herbal medicine class. It is a special medicine used to treat wounds.”

 “White fresh essence?”

Hermione frowned. In this case, the reason why Hagrid went to the campus hospital was not to help Madam Pomfrey, but to be injured.

 She was right what she thought before, Hagrid must be related to what happened yesterday.

“How about we ask Kyle again.” Ron suggested.

"It's useless." Hermione shook her head and said, "If he wanted to tell us, he would have told us before. Besides, you shouldn't think that he would spill the beans like Hagrid."

"Hermione is right." Harry nodded in agreement. He didn't really want to go to Kyle either.

 Mainly because of Quidditch.

 Since Slytherin's upset loss to Ravenclaw, it has lost the possibility of competing for the championship.

 And Ravenclaw also received a zero shutout in the first game, so even if they won, the score was not high.

So the next game between Hufflepuff and Gryffindor is crucial. Whoever can win can seal the victory in advance.

In this case, in just one afternoon, the relationship between the two colleges quickly dropped to a freezing point, and Harris and Wood almost got into a fight in the corridor.

At this time, even if they go to Kyle, the other party may not pay attention to them. Harry didn't want to be unhappy.

Seeing that both of them objected, Ron had no choice but to give up.

 …

 When class started the next day, everyone saw Professor Quirrell again.

 Apparently, he did not contribute to the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor's curse, as most people suspected.

 This makes many people very disappointed.

 They had thought before that if there were no professors, the final exams might be cancelled.

However, some people noticed that Professor Quirrell's arm was injured again, with a thick bandage on his wrist, and his face was paler than before.

He explained that the injury was caused by falling down the stairs because he was too anxious two days ago.

 Many people felt a sense of regret again...

Kyle clearly heard a Slytherin next to him say faintly: "The atmosphere is already here, why did you just break your arm..."

I don’t know if it was because of the injury, but Professor Quirrell didn’t even bring his “teaching assistant” with him this time, and gave everyone a standard reading class. Those who didn’t know better thought they were taking the History of Magic.

That's not right either... Professor Binns would at least read the lengthy content himself, but Professor Quirrell let the students read it themselves, and he himself sat on the podium until the end of get out of class, and seemed to have slept during the period.

 The faces of the little wizards in class below don’t look very good.

　　Who can’t read? The salary is too comfortable. If there was a competition for professors to show off their skills at Hogwarts, Quirrell would definitely be the well-deserved champion.

Even if he replaced a swallow-tailed dog as a professor, he couldn't do any worse. I really don't know why Dumbledore hasn't fired him yet.

If Defense Against the Dark Arts was only becoming more and more boring, then Potions class was torture for Kyle.

It seemed that he was trying to vent his dissatisfaction with losing the game, or maybe he wanted to transfer the pain to Kyle. In short, Snape's attitude towards him became even worse.

The points deducted each time have also been increased to a starting point of five points, with no upper limit.

Although these points would later be added back through Kangana for various reasons, Kyle was still so angry that he wanted to slam Mikel's cauldron on his head more than once.

As for why he didn't deduct his own...that's because the potions he brewed were all standard potions. Even if he deducted them on Snape's head, it wouldn't cause much harm, and he could easily solve it.

 But Mikkel’s was different. His was Schrödinger’s magic potion. Before leaving the crucible, no one knew what effect it would have, and it was difficult to find a corresponding solution.

Having the same experience as Kyle, Harry was also targeted by Snape, but the points deducted were not as many.

Moreover, after hearing about Kyle's experience from others, Harry's bad mood suddenly improved a lot. Even when he met Snape outside the Potions classroom, he remained calm. few.

"Fred and George are right." Harry said easily during a game of wizard chess: "It seems that Snape does hate Kyle more."

"According to what you said, we are likely to win the game?" Ron was also a little excited.

It would be great for Gryffindor if Snape could keep causing trouble for Hufflepuff.

"Ron, don't say that." Harry commanded the knights to capture a pawn, and vowed: "Even if Snape hadn't been the referee, we would have won!"
