Chapter Twenty-Five: The Order of the First Class of the Order of the Order of Merlin?
"Whew!"
The day before her birthday, Hallie finally wrote the essay completely and corrected the format.
A complete Potions treatise should include the core elements of the paper, the process of improving potions, the principles of potions based on them, the data generated when the experiment fails, and a theoretical analysis of the improvement steps......
While much of the content involved in the Potions Master's housekeeping skills, the Extraordinary Apothecary Guild also allowed the Potions Master to have reservations when reviewing papers.
But you should also write at least part of it, and don't say anything, how to show the professionalism of the article!
It was a pain for Hallie, who spent a lot of effort in the past two days to get the article to meet Professor Slughorn's request.
Hallie fell backwards and slumped limply on the bed.
Hedwig was standing at the table, looking at her with a sneering expression.
In the past two days, Hedwig had made several trips between Hallie, Professor Slughorn, and Professor Snape.
Owls don't have human rights, right?
Hallie quickly straightened up, sealed the article, and put it in the small bag on Hedwig's feet with the Traceless Stretching Charm cast, and rubbed Hedwig's little head:
"Hedwig, please make another trip, this time to Professor Slughorn.
But I promise this is the last time, and then I'll give you a little long vacation, and I'll make some more semi-finished hydrosols and essential oils. ”
Hedwig gave her a feeble look, rubbed Harley's hand obediently, and then flew out of the window.
Looking at Hedwig's vanishing figure, Hallie breathed a long sigh of relief.
Speaking of which, it took her two hours to finish her paper, and then two days to revise the format, which is really painful!
Thankfully, now that it's all over, Professor Slughorn will help Harley send the article out.
"Speaking of which, it's my birthday?" Hallie lay down on the bed, remembering the date,
"No, not today, it should be tomorrow. Time flies! It's been two years since I came back in the blink of an eye. ”
After a short break, Harley went downstairs to the restaurant for lunch.
As soon as she sat down at the table, she felt a strange atmosphere.
Aunt Vernon had a cold face, and Aunt Petunia had a hint of worry in her eyes, although her face was expressionless.
Only Dudley didn't seem to notice anything, still munching on the chicken on the plate in front of him.
A holiday gone, he's fatter than last year.
Although at that time, because he messed up an important order from Uncle Vernon, Dudley was ordered to lose weight.
But Aunt Penny still feels sorry for her little Dada, and when Dudley starts to complain, Aunt Penny is distressed and convinces Aunt Vernon to stop being angry.
Harley sat down at the table farthest away from Dudley with some disgust, and took two slices of bacon as if no one was around.
Of course, she sensed that something was wrong with the atmosphere, but what did it have to do with herself?
Mr. and Mrs. Desley didn't take the initiative to say, and Harley naturally didn't ask.
Halfway through lunch, Uncle Vernon coughed a few times and spoke:
"Hallie! Maggie is coming to our house tomorrow for a week. ”
"So what?" Hallie casually smeared the salad dressing on the bread slices, "Does it have anything to do with me?" ”
"Of course it does!" Uncle Vernon slammed the table hard and whispered in a rough voice,
"We're very decent people, and we shouldn't have anything to do with magic!
If we let others know that there is a witch living in our house, then ......"
His words did not continue, and at the same time sweat slid down his fat face.
Because Harley's hair had stretched out for some time, and she was floating in mid-air, pointing at the Desleys.
The room was frozen like death, and Dudley didn't dare to chew the chicken thigh in his mouth anymore.
"Do I get your eyes dirty by living in this house?" In the silence, Harley took a small bite of her bread and then tilted her head to look at Aunt Vernon.
Aunt Vernon's face flushed, as if she wanted to say something, but was grabbed by Aunt Penny.
"Of course not, Harley." Aunt Penny was afraid that her husband would say anything more, so she immediately spoke first,
"It's just that your Aunt Maggie is coming here for a week. She was supposed to come tomorrow, but I made an excuse that she would probably be a few days late.
At the same time, I remember Lily saying that wizards don't have a ...... Non-disclosure agreements? Anyway, it's a request to protect the mysteries of the wizarding world.
If ordinary people like Maggie, who have nothing to do with magic, knew about magic, it would be very troublesome! ”
"That law is called the Secrecy Act," said Harley lazily, "and I have to point out a mistake in your words.
I could have erased Maggie's memories so that it would be a secret. ”
Seeing that the faces of the Desires became more and more ugly, black flames jumped out of Hallie's hair.
At this moment, there was a sudden noise and the cry of an owl from upstairs.
"I'm sorry, I missed first." Hallie stood up and returned to her room.
In the room, several owls were standing on the windowsill, but none of them were Hedwig.
Harley quickly retrieved the letters from their feet and fed them a little of Hedwig's ration.
Taking advantage of the owl's snack, Harley opened the letter and read it carefully.
There was a letter from the Ministry of Magic, inviting Hallie to travel to the Ministry of Magic three days later to attend the ceremony of awarding the Order of the Order of the Merlin.
According to them, Harley received a first-class medal from the Order of Merlin for protecting her classmates from the basilisk by single-handedly killing the basilisk and defeating the evil dark wizard.
The remaining two letters were from Professor Slughorn and Professor Dumbledore, two well-informed old men congratulating Harley on receiving the Order of Merlin, 1st class.
Professor Slughorn also wrote in the letter that once she had received the paper, Hallie would be ready to apply to join the Extraordinary Pharmacists Association.
In two days at most, Hallie can successfully join the Extraordinary Pharmacists Association.
After all, Hallie's talent has been fully displayed in the previous competition, and everyone can see it.
Waiting until she received the paper to let Hallie join was just a formality.
"It looks like the two owls missed in mid-air, what a coincidence!" Hallie flipped through the letters,
"A medal of the first degree? So generous?
It wouldn't be because Potter was a pure-blood, and I was still underage, so I added a hidden point. ”
She suddenly remembered something: "Forget it, let's just take this opportunity to go out for a week."
If you don't count the fat pig, Aunt Penny is also my only blood relative, so I don't want to embarrass her too much. ”
Thinking of this, Hallie sat down, flipped out her pen and began to write back.
