Chapter 051 is in dire straits

"It's not us who is obviously wrong, why is it always us who are scolded?" The two giant snakes wanted to cry very much, but unfortunately they were stone carvings and had no tears.

Catherine originally thought that Snape was so angry with her that she should not continue to accompany her in the morning exercise, but as soon as she left the common room the next morning, she saw the familiar black figure waiting for her at the door of his office.

In fact, since Catherine provoked a storm to study the similarities and differences between the knowledge systems of the Muggle world and the wizarding world, the content of her morning workout has also changed from a simple running exercise to a comparison of the fighting styles of the two worlds.

Although Snape was a well-deserved master in the field of potions, in the field of combat, Catherine, with her knowledge and instinct, made Snape let go of her reserve as a professor and seriously consulted her.

At first, Catherine was surprised, but after Snape uttered the phrase "There is no one who learns, and those who master are teachers", she began to teach her. Therefore, although Catherine still did not change her name, she had begun to put Snape on an equal footing in her heart, so she dared to treat him like that last night.

"Professor, aren't you angry?" Catherine asked curiously.

"What do you think?" Snape replied coldly.

"And what are you?" Catherine blinked, and a bad feeling welled up in her heart for no reason.

"I just want to see," Snape said solemnly, "how are you going to do your morning exercise now?" ”

Catherine's right hand was tied up like this by Madam Pomfrey, and it was very awkward to do anything, and Snape was clearly coming to see the joke, so Catherine was angry.

The consequence of Catherine's anger was that Snape's life began to fall into misery, and even the Hogwarts students became unlucky.

Snape knew very well that Catherine was absolutely certain that she was 100% deliberate, but as soon as he saw the very familiar eyes full of playful eyes, his temper was completely uncontrollable, and he wanted to catch her and warn her not to do it again, but every time he lost control at first, the ginger girl immediately lowered her eyes, and he couldn't get angry at all in the face of the more familiar face with a gentle smile.

Snape has never been a good-natured person, let alone a person who can be patient and not fire-bearing, especially since he also has a very bad habit, he is super angry, so when he meets Harry, Gryffindor students, other house students, Slytherin students Xiàn very bad, he will always find an excuse to deduct points.

So since November 10, Snape's point deduction record has hit a record high, especially in the five days from November 11 to November 15, Snape was able to deduct more than 200 points a day, until Catherine removed the plaster on his hand, it fell back to below 200, but it still did not fall back to the level before November 10.

It wasn't that no one tried to complain to the other professors, but according to the portrait, even Dumbledore was scolded by Snape to the point that no one had the luxury of resisting, and they were all silently looking forward to the Christmas holidays.

For Christmas, Catherine is not so hopeful, after all, she has been having a good time recently, and she has no home, thinking of the feeling of being alone for Christmas, she can't help but start complaining, obviously the wizard and the Holy See are opposites, why do you still spend Christmas?

But time does not stop because of Catherine's expectations, Christmas is quietly approaching in anticipation, and the various houses have registered the list of stayers for the holidays, but after Catherine signed the name, she suddenly received a letter from Ollivander.

Dear Catherine,

Please come to my shop during the Christmas break, I've got a new batch of wands for you.

Ollivanders

Seeing this letter, Catherine couldn't help but smile wryly, if it was before November 10th, then she must have asked Snape directly if she could use the apparition to send her to Diagon Alley, but now that he was so miserable, she was really embarrassed to ask him for help, so she couldn't help but hesitate for a while what to do.

"What do you see so fascinating?" With an arrogant voice, Catherine's letter was snatched away by the platinum boy sitting across from her.

"Ollivander told me to buy wands from his shop for Christmas." Catherine's voice was full of helplessness.

"So," Dracola skimmed over the contents of the letter, "you're not going to stay at Hogwarts for Christmas?" ”

"It's hard to say." Catherine raised her hand to her temple, she was now having a headache over it.

"Why?" It was Daphne who asked loudly.

"I just auctioned off my property before school started, so," said Catherine with a sigh, "if I choose not to stay at school for Christmas, I really don't know where I'm going to stay during the holidays!" ”

"You can stay at the Cauldron Bar," Theodore said, "just in time to visit all over the wizarding world." ”

"Will you hang out alone during the Christmas holidays?" Catherine raised an eyebrow.

Several Slytherins looked at each other, all shaking their heads.

"Aren't you an orphan?" Pansy asked, raising an eyebrow.

"But there are people at Hogwarts I want to spend the holidays with." Catherine looked at Harry, then at the professorship.

In the professorship, Snape was talking to Dumbledore, as if sensing Catherine's gaze, he looked towards the Slytherin table, and when he met his eyes, Catherine couldn't help but smile, and Snape raised his eyebrows slightly.

"I thought you had a falling out with the dean." Blaise's voice was a bit harsh, Slytherin was not stupid, and naturally he had already found out who was the culprit who had made Snape unusually late.

"Of course not, it's just some friction." Catherine's smile became a little unnatural.

"Are you sure it's just rubbing?" Millicent's face was incredulous.

"What's wrong?" Catherine couldn't understand how all the Slytherins around her had expressions of disbelief.

"Because since November 11," Ixissi's voice suddenly rang out next to them, "the average number of points deducted by the Dean per day is 196.87, with Gryffindors accounting for 47 percent, Hufflepuff 36 percent, Ravenclaw 14 percent, and Slytherin 3 percent." ”

Catherine looked through her memory, did some more calculations, and was surprised to find that Ixissi's number jù was exactly right.

"You know, as long as you were a Slytherin and didn't offend Professor Snape, he wouldn't deduct your points. This year, however, there have been many exceptions. Ixissi sat down next to Draco, "Potions materials science is over that time, after all, it does violate the dean's bottom line." But since the first Quidditch match, the Dean's temper has been fluctuating, and it has hardly gone a day since it cleared. ”

"Isn't he always bad-tempered?" Catherine was puzzled.

"Miss Catherine," the prefect Kenschott came to them, "do you know what the average Slytherin score has been for Professor Snape every day in all his seven years of teaching?" ”

Catherine shook her head.

“0.17！” Kenshott looked indignant, "Do you know how much it is now? ”

“5.9061！” Catherine replied.

"That's a 34.7-fold increase! Do you now understand how strict things are? Kenshaut asked.

Catherine nodded obediently.

"Catherine, we also know that it's not you who is wrong in this matter, but we still hope," Ixissi smiled and pretended to be white-faced, "It's really just some 'small friction' between you and the dean, after all, no one wants to be as unlucky as those two snakes, and they are still gagged." ”

"I gagged their mouths." Catherine blinked, not understanding why this sentence had caused all the Slytherins around her to look at her in shock.

"Catherine," Ixissi tried to pull a smile, but failed, "can you sue me why are you gagging them?" ”

"They're too noisy."

The whole of Slytherin knew that the two snakes on the door of the Dean's office and on the door of the Potions classroom were very shitty and that every student had to be judged and judged, but given the prestige of the past Deans and the fact that it was not clear what they were hissing about, no one bothered to play with them.

But now someone dares to plug the mouths of those two snakes, and one one is nearly two months, and as the most terrible dean in Slytherin history, he has not said anything about it, which is really a fantasy thing.

For a moment, Catherine's image grew tall in the minds of all Slytherins, even if she made them the target of Snape's anger.

"Ahem!" For a long time, it wasn't until Ixasi's cough sounded that everyone retracted their gaffes.

"Catherine, whatever you do, remember what the Dean said on the night of school. Also," Ixissi stood up, "you can leave Hogwarts at any time during the Christmas holidays with the permission of the Dean." ”

"Thank you, Ixissi!" Catherine followed.

Exissius patted her on the shoulder and smiled away, while Kensault glared sharply at Catherine before turning away.

"It seems that Senior Sister Kenshart is still haunted by your defeat of her in martial arts!" Draco raised an eyebrow at Catherine.

"The whole of Hogwarts knows that I'm the one at the bottom when it comes to magic." Catherine had no pride or shame on her face at all.

After lunch, Catherine came to Snape's office door with some trepidation, after all, he had blocked the door for more than a month, and the practice of material handling and potion manipulation was directly taken back to the dormitory to complete, and she really didn't know if she could get in today.

Just as Catherine was thinking about what to do, she saw her two giant snakes from afar, and immediately flattered her like a wagging head and tail.

"Didn't the professor help you get it down?" Catherine felt that she should be able to get some information from them, so she stopped ignoring them as she had done before.

The two snakes shook their heads in frustration.

"Then do you dare to talk nonsense in the future?"

The two snakes immediately shook their heads in flattery.

Catherine smiled before removing the slate from their mouths.

The two snakes were able to "loosen their mouths" and hurriedly thanked them.

"That's right!" Catherine suddenly asked, as if she had just thought of it, "Did the professor block the door today?" ”
