Chapter 274: Snape's negativity

Snape didn't disappoint either.

All those who failed to hand in their homework were given three days of confinement.

Not only did they have to finish their homework in the cold underground classroom at night, but they also had to deal with the entire barrel of potions piled up in the corner.

Snape hadn't said what it was, but judging by his sinister smile and the fishy smell that permeated the classroom, it must have been terrible.

Mikel and Ryan looked at each other, glad they had escaped.

Just ten minutes earlier, they had just finished their potions homework.

"We're learning a new potion today: the Shrinking Potion."

Snape said in his usual tone, "I've written out the steps, everyone looks at them carefully, and then we can go get the material."

So, what are you waiting for! ”

Everyone immediately left their seats and crowded into the cabinets by the wall.

Connor's desk was always stocked with the ingredients he needed, but unlike the big bag he had filled before, there was only one this time.

This also meant that Kyle couldn't rub her anymore.

Kyle glanced at Snape and saw that he was also looking at him, and his eyes were full of mockery.

"Stingy!"

Kyle pouted, got up and walked in the direction of the cabinet.

Because he went too late, when he arrived, he found that there were only a few broken daisy roots and two or three crumpled figs that had been squeezed and flattened.

"All materials are limited."

Snape's voice came from the podium, "So you'd better get it right the first time, and don't think about making a mistake again!" ”

"Before class, the person who completes the potion the worst will be deducted twenty points, which may motivate you to be a little more serious and boil the potion well."

As he said this, Snape's eyes never left Kyle.

Don't think about it, a person who doesn't have materials will definitely be the worst one.

"Careless......" Kyle sighed.

Accustomed to rubbing Connor's materials, I didn't expect Snape to play yin.

"Didn't you get the materials? Then this one is for you. ”

At this moment, a hand suddenly reached out.

In Kyle's eyes, there was still a faint glow of hope on this arm.

Mikel placed a tray on Kyle's desk.

"You know, my potions are always wrong, and I always take more just in case."

"Thank you." Kyle was pleasantly surprised, "You've done you a great favor. ”

"It's nothing." Mikel gestured to a piece of parchment on the table.

Without Kyle's help, they wouldn't have been able to finish their Potions homework at noon.

This wave belongs to helping each other.

After seeing Kyle solve his material problem, Snape was immediately unhappy.

He stared at Kyle, and was about to say something, when Connor suddenly reversed the position of his bag and tray.

"These locust saps look good, can I use this?"

"Of course." Kyle nodded.

Visible to the naked eye, several green tendons broke out of Snape's forehead.

Is locust juice better in a tray?

Are you kidding!

The things in the cabinet were all made by the students who were locked up, how could they be compared to the materials he prepared by himself!

But seeing that Kyle and Connor had already begun to cut the daisy roots, he could only take a few deep breaths and forcibly suppress the anger in his heart.

Snape was in a bad mood...... He had to pass on that emotion.

So......

"Daisy root cut is too big, Hufflepuff deducts two points......"

"The skin of the wrinkled fig is too thick, and Hufflepuff deducts three points."

……

After a turn, Snape, who had not yet deflated, walked up to a Slytherin student.

The student craned his neck proudly, waiting to receive the praise from his dean.

His potion is a light green, which is very close to the standard answer.

According to the usual situation, he can definitely get extra points.

However, the next second......

"A little locust juice is enough, what do you put so much for, Slytherin deducts two points!"

Yes...... Snape, who hadn't yet lost his temper, even began to deduct points from his own house!

At this moment, everyone is in a bad mood.

……

"Professor Snape, what's wrong!"

At dinner, Kyle also overhears students discussing the matter.

"He actually deducted twenty points from Slytherin...... Twenty points! ”

Others were unbelieving at first.

After all, the whole of Hogwarts knew that the Potions professors were most partial to Slytherin, and even if any of them blew up the cauldron, they would only be locked up without deducting points.

"It's not funny at all."

At the Gryffindor table, Fred glanced at Jordan Lee who was dancing next to him, and sneered: "Or you haven't woken up yet, and you have heard the extra points as a deduction." ”

"I'm not kidding!"

Li Jordan said with a serious face: "This matter is crazy, don't you know it?" ”

"Wait, you're really not kidding?" George put down the cup in his hand.

"I swear!"

Jordan pointed in the direction of the Slytherin table, "Or you can take a walk around there, they're talking about that, too." ”

Fred was immediately interested, and asked, "When!" ”

Harry and Ron put down their knives and forks and listened.

Snape would actually deduct points from Slytherin, which is almost as unbelievable as Hermione would forget the common room password.

"It's in the afternoon Potions class." Lee Jordan said excitedly, "I happened to pass by when a few third-year Slytherins were talking, and I overheard them talking about this. ”

"I thought I had misheard, but then I found out that Slytherin's scoring hourglass was really twenty points less than before!

And they only have Potions class in the afternoon. ”

"Shhh......hh

"You just said third grade?" Fred frowned, "Which house is taking classes with Slytherin?" ”

"Hufflepuff."

Li Jordan said casually: "The first to spread the news were these two colleges. ”

"Kyle!" Fred and George said at the same time.

They don't know what's going on, but their instincts tell them that it must have something to do with Kyle.

Based on their years of experience, whenever anything unusual happens at Hogwarts, just deduct it from Kyle.

Not 100 percent him, but at least eight times out of ten.

"If only we could have been born a year later."

"And then to Hufflepuff."

Fred and George looked up at the Hufflepuff table across from them, their eyes full of wistfulness.

The thing they regret the most is that they didn't get to the same grade as Kyle.

That must be a lot more exciting than they are now.
