On the first Sunday after the start of the second year, the small "accident" did not affect Matthew Wakefield too much.

He continued to act as usual, and seemed to forget all about the previous night's events the next day.

He still affectionately called several roommates by name, and generously copied their homework...... At least in the eyes of a few of his roommates, Matthew doesn't hold grudges at all.

Of course, these are just appearances.

In fact, Matthew has become much more vigilant than before......

He began to spend as little time in his bedroom as possible, keeping his wand by his side even at night, even when he went to bed at night.

Although he didn't think that those "bear children" dared to attack him in the dormitory.

But at least...... It's better to be as careful as possible.

......

On the other hand, due to Professor Horace Slughorn's "request", Matthew contacted Miss Elaine Shafiq more frequently and more proactively.

The naïve Miss Shafiq had encountered a lot of trouble during her time at Hogwarts, but Matthew was very enthusiastic and helped her a lot.

The relationship between the two has become very good, at least Matthew thinks that he is now a "friend" that Miss Shafiq trusts.

Elaine Shafiq is the most important clue that Matthew can grasp now......

If Matthew was right, it was her father, Shafiq, manager of the Blotts, who had shipped the book from Italy to England a year earlier...... And after that, it inadvertently fell into the hands of Matthew.

If you can follow the clue of Miss Shafiq and figure out the true source and true face of that book...... Matthew can really relax.

The small accident on the first Sunday after the start of school was a help to Matthew......

But in Matthew's view, it may also be a warning.

The book was able to suddenly manipulate itself without any premise reaction, to turn his wand at someone else, and to use magic that he would not normally use...... This also means that it can also manipulate itself and then point its wand at itself and perform a spell like "Awanda's life......

Their strength is not on one level, and there is no room for tricks in the face of it.

If the book has a well-intentioned attitude towards itself, then naturally nothing will happen.

But if it has a certain malice towards its own attitude -

Matthew had to do his best, show "trust" in it, and "trust"!

After all, judging from the previous performance, it is impossible to know what you really think in that book......

......

The rainy month of September is gradually coming to an end.

The weather began to clear and the dark clouds cleared from the sky, although the temperature was getting colder.

The past month has been the same as the months since Morgana's defeat to Professor Grindelwald last year...... The whole school is very peaceful and everything is going well.

The Aurors who were stationed on campus did not disturb the teachers and students, and the Dementors did not dare to set foot in the castle.

As for the curriculum-

Transfiguration has become a popular course for most people...... The "Severus Snape" professor had a great temper and a good sense of humor, as well as a great mastery of Transfiguration...... At least he was much more popular than Professor Troka had been a year earlier, though Matthew didn't like him very much on a hunch.

However, Matthew also had to admit that the lessons they had in the Transfiguration class were quite interesting:

For example, a pair of white rabbits become a pair of slippers, a mouse becomes a cup, and a teapot becomes a turtle (judging by the details of whether its tail is still spout and spews steam, or if the turtle still has a wicker-patterned shell......

Professor Severus Snape also often prepares small gifts to reward students who have made significant progress in Transfiguration classes.

Almost all of the students liked Professor Severus Snape.

Except, perhaps, only one person—

That was Harry Evans of Gryffindor...... Mr. Evans ended up performing poorly on his final exams due to some accidents last semester, and became the only student in Matthew's grade to "repeat" a grade.

However, it is said that in the new semester, he did quite well in the first year.

Of course, that was in a class other than Transfiguration.

Matthew had deliberately inquired about it, and it was said that in Transfiguration, Professor Severus Snape, who had always been mild-mannered, was extremely strict with Mr. Evans.

Even according to the description of those first-year freshmen, it is a bit harsh.

Mr. Evans was probably the only student who was not liked by Professor Severus Snape.

Some have speculated that this may be because "Professor Snape" hates this kind of "repeater" in his bones.

......

The herbal medicine course, on the other hand, has become a bit of a disaster-oriented trend.

The bigger the flowers, the more aggressive they became......

Their stems have numerous spikes that can penetrate their skin if they are not careful...... And those spiky vesicles contain a lot of venom.

Although they wear dragon skin gloves on their hands, they will not be stabbed, but the rest of the body is different.

The spikes of the Flor flowers can easily pierce the robes of wizards and infuse their venom into their bodies......

Madam Pomfrey was busy, and after almost every herbal medicine class, one or two "poisoned" students were taken to the school hospital...... Although this toxicity is not too strong, it does cause her work a lot of trouble.

Professor Sprout was a little helpless about this, although she would repeatedly stress the precautions when working with Flor flowers in class...... However, this can't bear to be "stupid" by students in practice.

Matthew had privately heard Professor Sprout complain that he would have to apply to President Rozier for the next semester to prepare a dragon skin suit for every student who took the herbal medicine class.

As for the other courses, there was no turmoil.

......

On the last Saturday of September, when Matthew returned to the Slytherin common room, he received a notice.

Tomorrow, Sunday, the students from Year 2 and above were given the opportunity to go to Hogsmeade Village.

For first-year students, they are only allowed to travel to Hogsmeade during the Christmas and Easter holidays.

Students from the second grade onwards seem to have more opportunities......
