Chapter 9: A Different Mrs. Cohen
"Enough, Andy, you're a gossip. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info”
Victor looked at Andy helplessly.
Benjamin was interested, but he noticed that most of the people were starting to leave the restaurant in a hurry.
Even Victor began to pack his school bag.
"Isn't there five minutes left until class?"
Benjamin asked, somewhat puzzled.
"But we have a strong sense of time, and if you're a second late, sorry, you'll be punished!"
Victor swore by it.
"What kind of punishment?" said Benjamin, curious, as he interjected quickly.
"It's disgusting," Andy waved his hand in disgust, "Germans are old-fashioned, and they usually make you stand outside the classroom all the time." Of course, if it's Professor Krutum, he'll let you go up there and put on a talent show. ”
"Yes, Andy has always wanted to be late and go up and put on a show. ”
Victor unraveled the bottom without mercy.
Benjamin was a little surprised that Professor Krutum was still a little cute?
Wait, he suddenly thought of a question, "Andy, you're not German?"
Andy shook his head and said in a tone of disbelief, "Isn't that strange? Actually, neither Victor nor I are Germans. Wait, you really don't know him, do you?"
Andy thought of the blank look on Benjamin's face when they first met, and felt more and more that his guess was correct.
Benjamin nodded honestly, he really didn't know Victor, but Victor was a nice guy to get along with.
"Hahaha," the three of them had already walked to the door of the classroom at this time, Andy was almost out of breath laughing, "Big star, it turns out that there are really people who don't know you, I'm so happy." Benjamin, I love you to death!"
Looking at Benjamin, who was confused, Victor finally stood up and explained.
"I'm from Bulgaria and I'm a member of the Bulgarian Quidditch national team. And then Andy, he's a Russian. ”
Benjamin immediately understood why Andy was surprised that he didn't know Victor.
After all, a national team player who is going to school is indeed a legendary identity.
"Well, I actually like Quidditch, and I'm still a docent at Hogwarts. Benjamin explained, somewhat embarrassed.
At this moment, Mrs. Cohen on the podium gave him a cold look.
"Please be quiet when you enter the classroom, it's only 53 seconds before class. ”
Benjamin resolutely kept his mouth shut, this Mrs. Cohen seemed to be a perfect match for Professor Snape.
Dressed in a black robe, with long greasy hair, a cold expression, and a mean language.
Simply so!
After the long 53 seconds had passed, Mrs. Cohen began her lesson.
She first glanced at a table, and then said coldly:
"A new classmate, Benjamin Ludwig, stood up and showed me. ”
Benjamin immediately stood up.
Then Mrs. Cohen sneered, "Sure enough, it's you, people who haven't been to Durmstrang don't know the rules." You used to be at Hogwarts?"
"That's right," Benjamin didn't pay attention to the-for-tat in Mrs. Cohen's words.
"Then you are a student of Severus, and in a while you will come up to refine potions, and let me see who is more powerful between his students and my students. ”
Mrs. Cohen made up her mind and sat Benjamin down.
Benjamin looked at Victor and Andy speechlessly, and whispered:
"Didn't you say he had a good relationship with Professor Snape?
Andy shook his head, with an expression that he had already seen through, "No, no, no, this is called the deeper the love, the deeper the hate." ”
It's really a stomach for inexplicable ideas.
Fortunately, the task assigned by Mrs. Cohen today was not too difficult, and it was for all of them to refine a potion of enlargement.
After glancing at the steps and materials on the textbook, Benjamin already had his own plan in mind.
Mrs. Cohen was also looking at Benjamin, and she couldn't help but nod when she saw Benjamin's calm expression.
At least in terms of psychological quality, it is still commendable, and I hope not to disgrace Severus.
"Alright, Mr. Ludwig, you can come up and start your show. ”
Benjamin nodded.
At this time, he had memorized all the steps in the textbook, but he felt that if he followed the instructions in the textbook, he would have too little room for challenge and play.
Probably there is only a difference in the accuracy of the technique and the dose.
What Benjamin needed was innovation.
He cleanly found a withered mandrake from the cupboard.
It replaced the tail of the golden chipmunk.
Since Benjamin was standing on the podium, all his reasons had been exposed to the eyes of his classmates.
Most people have a natural rejection of this mysterious transfer student.
"What is he doing here?"
"Oh, he must have misremembered, but it's too normal, and the steps are too tedious this time. ”
"Do you think he did it on purpose?"
"How is that possible? Who does he think he is? Does he really think of himself as his teacher?"
Instead, Victor smiled, and he said to Andy beside him, "It seems that our new roommate is very interesting, and I don't think he was mistaken." ”
Andy didn't even raise his head, "Nonsense, otherwise the school will arrange him in our dormitory?" Big star, can you stop looking at it, so help me!"
Victor glanced at Andy's white, tender skin, but sneered in his heart.
"Andy, how long are you going to hide it?"
Mrs. Cohen looked intently at Benjamin, who was not surprised by his unfazed attitude, and his unfazed approach, that he must have deliberately modified the material.
Far from making Mrs. Cohen angry, the coldness on her face faded a little.
"Hmph, worthy of being a student of Severus, but he has a bit of a foundation. Mrs. Cohen suddenly remembered the letter Professor Snape had sent her some time ago, and was a little upset. "But that guy actually remembered to write to me because of you, which really makes me very unhappy!"
It's just that Mrs. Cohen didn't realize that she herself had actually smiled for the first time in a long time.
After Benjamin modified this material, he naturally changed the next few steps as well.
For example, when he stirs the crucible, he does not make three and a half turns clockwise, but every half turn, he changes direction.
As for the reason why he did this, it was his previous experience and intuition.
