Chapter Thirty-Six: Trelawney's Teaching Accident
Professor Trelawney was silent for a long time after he had fooled everyone around, her long emerald earrings shimmering in the light of the fire.
She occasionally shook her head, occasionally bowed her head, and her facial expressions were extraordinarily rich, sometimes happy, sometimes sad.
I don't know, I thought she had DID and had thirty personalities.
Of course, it could also be a simple water time, so that this lesson can be cute.
Just when everyone was about to get impatient, she suddenly said in a loud voice:
"I've just taken a look at the future with Tianmu, and this year we'll learn all kinds of basic divination methods. The first semester was spent on interpreting tea leaves.
By the way, dear. ”
She suddenly said to Eloise of Gryffindor, "Beware of wizards with L in their names. ”
Eloise glanced at McLagan in fear.
In first grade, McLagan was in transfiguration class and set her hair on fire, making her nearly disfigured.
Although it is almost disfigured now, Eloise's face has begun to show a large number of pimples.
Like a field that has been plowed down.
Eloise moved her chair away from McLagan a bit.
Professor Trelawney continued: "As planned, we would have finished reading tea this semester.
Unfortunately, in October, a cold snap can cause a severe cold.
I would lose my voice and force the class to close.
Our classes are resumed after a short pause. ”
"In the summer semester," Professor Trelawney continued, "we will be learning about the Flame Omen and the Crystal Ball.
At the end of the school year, the Church will leave everyone forever. Of course, I'm not talking about the graduating group. ”
Many students laughed, and everyone knew that every Defense Against the Dark Arts professor could not work for two years.
"Tsk, if I were you, I wouldn't laugh, I'm talking about two people leaving forever!"
After she said this, there was a tense silence in the classroom, but Professor Trelawney seemed to feel no sense of it.
"I think, dear." She said to William suddenly.
"Can you bring me that teapot on the shelf?"
William nodded and stood up, taking a large teapot from the shelf and placing it on the table in front of Professor Trelawney.
"Thank you, dear. By the way, the thing you don't want to see – it will happen before Christmas. ”
William raised an eyebrow.
"Now, I want you to work in teams of two. Take a teacup from the shelf, come to me, and I'll pour tea into the cup.
Then sit down, drink tea, and drink until only the tea leaves are left in the cup.
Shake the tea residue three times with your left hand, then flip the teacup over and buckle it onto the teacup holder; Wait until the last bit of tea is gone, and give your teacup to your partner to interpret.
You can use pages 5 and 6 of the book "Clearing the Fog and Looking to the Future" to decipher the shape of tea pomace.
I will walk among you, help you, and show you. ”
After William and Cho's teacups were filled with tea, the two returned to their tables.
William looked at the tea leaves floating on the boiling water, and then frowned slightly.
It's meowing!
There are white hairs on it, and it's already moldy!
William glanced at Cho's teacup again, which was also moldy.
"What's wrong, kid? Drink! ”
Trelawney shifted her gaze to William.
"Tea tasting is an art that requires meditation, and this is a good tea that I have treasured for many years, and it is delicious."
"Professor, I think you've treasured this tea for too long, maybe it's moldy."
William's voice was not loud, but all the students heard it.
Burst!
McLagan squirted all the water out of his mouth. He had just felt thirsty and had several drinks.
He exerted so hard that he squirted a mouthful of water on Eloise's face on the other side.
The girl wept and mourned, and was eager to pour the moldy tea leaves into McLagan's mouth and poison him to death.
Everyone looked at Professor Trelawney in awe, could she have seen all this with her "Heavenly Eye"?
So the L in the name really refers to McLagan?
Professor Trelawney seemed unwavering, shaking the cloak on his shoulders with a towering demeanor.
"Kid, it's not moldy, it's just tea." She insisted.
William rolled his eyes.
Chahao is the fine fluff on the tip of the tea bud, and the middle part of the tea is covered with white silk.
Isn't this moldy what is?
Even if Professor Trelawney had said so, no one would have dared to drink that tea anymore.
Professor Trelawney had no choice but to heartache take out the new tea she had just bought the other day from the cupboard.
This tea is prepared to be drunk slowly when a person is fine.
The price is too expensive!
This time it was indeed a good tea, and after two sips, William could tell that it was a high-quality dark iced tea of the Lipton brand.
When it comes to tea, many people will be accustomed to thinking that foreign drinks are all Celestial Dynasty tea.
When William came to England, he found out that this was not the case.
The UK does not produce tea, but it has the most recognizable tea brand in the world.
The Celestial Empire is the hometown of tea, and it is still the largest country in production and consumption, but it does not have an international tea brand.
There has always been a popular saying in the industry: "80,000 tea companies in the Celestial Empire are inferior to one Lipton".
In the Celestial Empire, which has a market of 100 billion yuan, the annual sales of 2 or 3 billion yuan are already considered large-scale tea enterprises, but in the United Kingdom, which does not produce tea, the annual sales of a "Lipton" are as high as more than 20 billion.
Of course, if the Camellia Girls of WeChat can join forces, they will be able to form the largest tea company in terms of market capitalization in minutes.
William quickly drank the tea.
As Professor Trelawney taught, he shook his little hand and threw the liquid out of it.
In a sense, the inside has completely become the shape of William.
He and Cho exchange teacups with each other.
"Alright," Cho asked. "What do you see in my teacup?"
"Hmm......" William tried to look at the lump of tea leaves in the cup, discerning what the pattern was.
Even if he is a soul painter, what he draws is a painting, and what is in the cup, William really can't understand what the pattern is.
"It's like a nebula, that's right, an M78 nebula! This means that you will find the right direction and reach the pinnacle of life with the help of a man called Bumpman. William said nonsense.
Cho glanced at William suspiciously, also staring at William's teacup.
"Oh, Merlin! A ball – a Quaffle! Cho exclaimed, "This means that Ravenclaw House will continue to win the Quidditch Cup under your leadership!" ”
"It makes sense, if you go to take the divination class exam now, you can probably get an O." William laughed.
William exchanged cups with the other students, and he imitated Professor Trelawney, like a magic stick, to help everyone prophesy.
William suddenly discovered that he could open a fortune-telling booth at Hogwarts and help people calculate marriages, and he would definitely be rich.
Professor Trelawney slept for five minutes, awakened by the noise.
She came out of the darkness, her eyes staring at William with unkind eyes.
The reason why she is unhappy is most likely because she is reluctant to give up her precious tea, or because she has the gas to get up.
"Kid, show me, I'll help you see your future!" Professor Trelawney snatched the cup from William.
Professor Trelawney stared at the teacup as he turned it in a counterclockwise direction.
"Grape ...... My dear, you are about to encounter the greatest crisis of your life! Professor Trelawney exclaimed.
"Professor, the ......"
Professor Trelawney ignored William and continued, "Big stick...... An attack. Honey, honey, this is not a lucky teacup......"
Everyone stared at Professor Trelawney in amazement, and she turned her teacup one last time, gasping for air, and screaming.
Professor Trelawney sat down in an empty armchair, her gleaming hands caressing her heart and her eyes closed.
"My dear child—Mr. Stark—my poor, dear child—no—it's better not to say it—no—don't ask me ......"
"What's wrong, Professor?" McLagan said immediately.
"My dear," Professor Trelawney's wide eyes opened dramatically, staring at William.
"You have a bad omen!"
"Omen?"
"'Omen', my dear, 'Omen of Evil'!" Professor Trelawney exclaimed.
"Whips, handcuffs, candles!" Professor Trelawney glared at William viciously, threatening. "It means that you are going to be kidnapped, imprisoned, and abused!"
Eloise raised her hand weakly, her face weeping.
"Professor, the ...... William is holding my cup! ”
Professor Trelawney suddenly stopped talking, and sat down in his chair, seemingly asleep.
There was a hint of embarrassment in the air.
Merlin, there's a teaching accident.
William remembered a Chinese teacher in his previous life.
In class, she explained to option B, and finally found that the answer was wrong, and she actually chose C.
The most powerful thing is that she is another reasonable explanation.
William even doubted that with another answer, she could still explain the Tao.
Talent is available everywhere.
Professor Trelawney is one such person.
