CHAPTER XXVI
Gale didn't know about Severus's mental activities, he didn't know that as a little butterfly who strayed into this world, his flapped wings had made many things move towards the unknown.
After a week of Hogwarts boarding, the trio had gotten used to something. So in addition to studying, Gail put cleaning up the responsive room in the to-do list.
Faced with endless "mountains", Gail began to clean up from the closest place to the door. First of all, clean the visible cabinets, chests, and other furniture and put them in the open space that Gale had just cleared.
When he got the broken Vanishing Cabinet, Gail thought about it for a moment and directly took the Vanishing Cabinet for himself. He made up his mind to find a way to get another vanishing cabinet as well, so that it could be a convenient "arbitrary door".
So when Severus came back with a few books of unknown age, he saw Gale loading cabinets into his space bag. This kind of action of pressing and pushing is really stupid. But in the end, Gail still managed to disappear and put it in his space bag, looking proud.
Severus pretended not to see Gail's stupid movements, and placed the basic book on the shelf that he had just cleared. Then he took out a couple of prank toys from his pocket and put them in a large box.
Before Gale began to clean up, he specifically instructed Seaver: "If you see valuable jewelry or anything, let's stay." Anyway, these are all ownerless things for centuries, and it just so happens that we turn waste into treasure as the original accumulation of funds! ”
Severus agrees - he is really relieved not to have the cheekiness to borrow money from a girl. So when it comes to cleaning up the Responsive Room, he is more motivated than Gail, just because of his long-term introverted personality, it's not obvious that he is right.
It wasn't until Halloween that the two of them leveled the three "hills" closest to the door, which was a lot of work. But compared to the remaining share of the entire Bing Room that can't see the end, these three mountains are really just a drop in the ocean.
Halloween, Gale has always regarded this holiday as a foreign festival. A hundred ghosts walk at night or something, in foreign countries, it's a demon walking world. For wizards with magical blood, this is indeed a day to celebrate.
Gail didn't have time to attend the celebration dinner - the Halloween dinner party asked for a dress! After three jewels and hundreds of experiments, the potion of potion finally entered a decisive critical period, and the potion was basically on Halloween, where did he have time to participate.
The brewing of the potion potion was carried out by Gale and Severus together, so Gale was not weak at all when he said this. Considering that the potion had to be consumed within 15 minutes of it being made, Gail and Severus, after greeting Lily, went to the kitchen - he asked the elf for something to eat, and then watched the potion until Severus drank it.
Gently scratching the pear on the portrait, the pear laughed deliciously, and then turned into a handle. When Gale pulls the handle, the Hogwarts kitchen appears behind the portrait.
Hundreds of elves were busy with the Halloween dinner, and only a few nearby elves noticed when the portrait was opened.
"Does the gentleman need anything? Kiki is here for you! The big-eyed elf in a tea towel said to Gail in a shriek.
Well, it seems, this is a female in an elf. Gail lowered his body and touched the tips of the elf's ears with a little itch, and touched her little hand, which made the elf Kiki jump up a little frightened.
Because of this, Gail reflexively leaned back, and one accidentally sat down on the ground.
Kiki was startled and immediately began to punish herself: "Bad elf! Bad elves! It scared the hell out of the sir! ”
"Stop! I order you to stop! Gail watched Kiki hit himself on the head with the pan next to him, and hurriedly shouted. After the elf stopped, he softened his tone: "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have touched you unexpectedly." You don't punish yourself. ”
"Mr. apologizes to Kiki! Sir is so nice! Not only forgave Kiki's mistakes, but also apologized to Kiki in turn! The elf became tearful in an instant.
Well, Gale kind of understands why Harry in the original books was so helpless with Dobby. But now that he didn't have time to exchange emotions with the elves, Gail said to Kiki, "Can you make me a few sandwiches?" I know you're busy, but I can't make it to the dinner party for some reason, so I need some food to fill my stomach. ”
"Sir uses honorifics to Kiki! Kiki couldn't be happier! Kiki: Just do it! Please sir wait a moment. After Kiki finished speaking, she ran away.
Gail smiled at Severus, who had pretended not to exist since the elf screamed behind him, "Well, isn't the elf cute?" ”
"If in your eyes, elves fall into the category of 'cute', then it is obvious that the two of us do not have the same understanding of cuteness." Severus was cold to Gail, who was trying to encourage him to come to the kitchen to "bond with the cute elves", and sat down at the long table that clearly corresponded to the Hogwarts Great Hall above.
Gail also knows that not everyone can stand the startling of elves, but in fact, they are really a group of very simple creatures! In the Hogwarts Assault and Defense, the elves joined the battle even with kitchen utensils. They've always been members of Hogwarts, but they've never been known.
When Gale was building the foundation, he had a vague glimpse of what Hogwarts looked like at the beginning. At that time, there were no elves at Hogwarts. The ancestors of the current elves were actually bred from Hogwarts. They come from the magic of Hogwarts and the love that students have for Hogwarts. Although there is no historical record.
Kiki quickly came back with a paper bag: "Kiki didn't know if Mr. liked ham or chicken, so he made two kinds of them!" ”
"Okay, thank you, Kiki. I'm Gaelgreen from Slytherin, can I find you next time? ”
"The gentleman actually said thank you to Kiki! Yes! Mr! Just call Kiki by name and Kiki will come to you! Kiki grabbed her ear and pulled it, then screamed with joy in answer to Gail.
Gale then soaked with Severus in the Room of Requirement. The two of them gathered around the crucible where the potion was boiling, keeping an eye on the potion.
“…… Add three drops of the rhizome juice of the lycoris. Okay, now just wait for it to turn green. After the final step, Gail finally relaxed a little and took out the sandwich to eat. Seeing that Severus was a little nervous, Gail directly broke off a sandwich and stuffed it into Severus's mouth.
Severus ate the sandwich in a daze, feeling as if his lips still had the softness of Gail's fingers. It's gentle, it's warm, and it makes Severus feel happy.
"That's it!" Gail gave Severus another sip of the sandwich, and when he looked back, he found that the color of the potion had gradually changed from light purple to green, indicating that the potion was complete.
When the potion in the entire cauldron turned green, Gail extinguished the flames and filled the potion. Both Severus and Gail were a little nervous right now, and the two were relatively silent at the steaming potion.
In the end, Severus took a deep breath and drank the potion in one gulp. Well, it's a little hot, which makes Severus very uncomfortable.
Gale quickly pulled out the water and put Severus in his mouth—Severus's mouth was red.
This is also one of the reasons why people are reluctant to accept potentiary potions, and they have to drink them hot. Although such an injury is nothing more than a little potion or a spell that can be cured by a wizard, who wants to suffer such a sin for an ability that they can't use at all?
Severus felt much better after drinking the refreshing water. He couldn't drink the potion that healed the burns, lest the potion be worn off, so despite the burning pain in his throat, Seaver endured it. This kind of attachment to great power has already begun to take shape.
Soon, Severus no longer felt the pain in his mouth and throat. It was as if each of his bones had been broken and then connected, and then broken, and the cycle never ended. He felt that his veins were no longer flowing with his own blood, but with knives, constantly cutting his veins. Even the muscles and skin felt as if they had been cut by something.
In fact, Severus's skin was cracked. From the cracked skin, you can even see his muscles, tendons, and blood vessels. Then, presumably due to the effects of the potion, the cracked skin healed again in a matter of seconds. After about a dozen seconds, Seaver's skin would crack again.
Under such a cycle, even coma has become a luxury. Severus felt as if he had been crushed into a lump of flesh, and then he was re-kneaded into the shape of a man, and then the person who pinched himself was not satisfied, and he beat himself into a lump of flesh.
Gail didn't dare to come out and watch the process beside Severus. It's too intense and brutal! As Severus's skin opened and closed, Severus's underwear was stained with blood and some unknown substance. These should be the bad impurities in Severus's body.
Severus lay on the ground with occasional spasms or two, and beneath him was a puddle of blood and impurities that gradually spread. Gale felt a deep respect for Severus, and at the same time, a little sad.
When the first stage of the potion has eliminated the impurities of Severus's flesh and body, it is time to begin to transform Severus on a deeper level. So, after the pain, Severus began to enter a state of hyperthermia again-
