Chapter 418：

Malfoy had a look of despair on his face, as his good date was just gone.

What was even more annoying was that they saw Blaise being kicked out of Mrs. Puddifu's teahouse.

He had just tried to invite Ginny to another table in front of Dean.

This approach directly made him an unwelcome guest.

John was speechless and didn't know what to say to Brace.

As a Slytherin, Blaise has a rich mother and outstanding achievements.

As a result, he hit his head against a tree and was bleeding, and his attacks became more fierce every time.

Even Malfoy felt that Blaise was more exaggerated than himself.

"You're in good spirits, Blaise." Walking forward, both of them patted the young man's shoulders sympathetically.

…

John went to the Pig Head Tavern alone, where he met Tang Mi.

"I don't know what you are doing with this thing?" Tang Mi handed a black box to John.

His expression was a little worried and he said: "There is strong malice and curse in it."

"Don't worry, it's not used against anyone." John waved his hand and opened the box.

That is a gorgeous opal necklace.

It was once displayed in Bojin Bock's store, and is now a piece in John's warehouse.

The reason he asked Tang Mi to bring the things over was because he wanted to decorate the nine gates of Qunxing Society.

"If you want to entertain the Dark Lord, there must be some exciting projects." John chuckled, "Since you want to pursue excitement, then follow through to the end."

Tang Mi didn't know what to say, so John stood up and prepared to leave.

Tang Mi stopped him and said, "Sir, you don't want to pay the bill?"

"If you're willing to make up the difference on those candies, I'll be happy to pay."

John's voice came slowly, and Tang Mi's face darkened.

Doing things for your boss, you end up having to pay for it yourself.

Aren’t you just buying the most expensive candies with the price of materials, is that all?

…

Return to the castle.

John thought that Brace would restrain himself, but he still underestimated the other party's perseverance.

"Has he already written his fifth love letter?"

Looking at Brace's endless creative ideas, John considered whether to let him join the ranks of great book writers.

"He gave it to Ginny Weasley in the morning, and also gave it to her at noon, and was writing it in the afternoon."

Three love letters a day, John asked Goyle and Crabbe to hold Blaise down.

He wanted to check to see if he had been poisoned.

Which brand of love potion can last so long?

Unfortunately, the result of the inspection is still negative.

"Brace, sometimes you need to keep your distance even if you like it."

John seriously warned Blaise that if he continued, Percy might come and kill him.

He spoke, and Blaise also knew to restrain himself, but he was still reluctant to let go of Ginny.

The time comes on Monday.

The war between Snape and Sirius continues.

Even Slughorn was alarmed.

He found two people and hoped that the grudge between them would not cause too much embarrassment.

At least the reason for deducting 5 points just because Malfoy scored first with his left foot is too far-fetched.

If not stopped, Slughorn felt that they would deduct all the points from both houses.

After this conversation, the two people finally restrained themselves.

The smell of gunpowder is still strong.

Sometimes it is not limited to verbal sarcasm.

When two people meet, they will make people nervous, as if they will pull out the magic wand at any time.

Such sights have almost become a feature.

Malfoy was busy training for the Quidditch team. John looked at the training schedule, which was almost double the number from the previous year.

He took out his quill and reduced the training time by one-third, so that the team members could get some breathing space.

Regarding the matter of improving the class, John still went to the Care of Magical Creatures class without hesitation.

Now Grawp can even solve the problem of one plus one equals two. The progress is so fast that even Hagrid is shocked.

This is inseparable from John's use of psychic magic to communicate, which is the most direct and easy-to-understand communication method.

At the same time, John was not idle. As the weather gradually became colder, he took apart the opal necklace.

This necklace once took away the lives of nineteen Muggles.

It is an out-and-out black magic prop.

That's why Tang Mi was worried when he sent it.

This thing looks like it was prepared to murder someone.

After John took it apart, he placed the opal necklace into one of the nine doors.

These nine doors are the same as those of the Star Club, requiring badges to enter.

It uses the shuttle technology that John learned in another world, the monolith.

But this shape is different from the megalithic monument.

Nor can he achieve the ability to travel through the world.

What can be done is similar to a door key, which can travel to different places.

Just when John finished everything, he met Harry when he went out.

"Good evening, John." Dumbledore opened the door and greeted John.

Harry tensed, and John glanced at them.

Through the open door, he saw a pensieve inside.

Dumbledore devoted all his energy to cultivating Harry.

…

Chapter 443 The professor who got into a fight

John's life was irregular.

Sometimes he would appear in the Forbidden Forest, and sometimes he would appear in a certain class.

Principal's office.

Slughorn poured tea into the milky white bone china tea cup, and the dense steam floated up.

"The perfect potion." He placed the tea next to the crucible and boasted, "I dare say no one has thought of such a bold idea before."

"The Master of Practical Potions will be happy to publish this result," Slughorn said, "this 'universal potion.'"

He gave John advice and was willing to pay a favor to be reported in Practical Potions Master magazine.

In his opinion, young people cannot always resist the temptation of becoming famous.

Unfortunately, John is not an ordinary young man.

"No, Professor, this thing is not perfect yet." John used a small reagent bottle to put a portion of the medicine in the crucible.

He shook it to see if there were any layers in the green potion.

This is an important factor in judging whether the medicines are well integrated.

"Why?" Slughorn wondered, "You just invented a 'universal potion' that can stop bleeding, detoxify, enhance, and break curses. You should let everyone know about it."

Slughorn watched with his own eyes how this thing was born.

Also knowing how amazing the talent of the boy in front of him was, Slughorn wanted to get this 'collection' more and more.

But John's lack of food and salt made Slughorn even more uncomfortable like a cat scratching him.

He dared to swear that if he missed this child, he would regret it until he entered the grave.

John thought for a while, chuckled and replied: "Because this thing is just a derivative. For me, finding a way to break the blood curse is the most important thing."

Putting the cap on the reagent bottle, John looked at Slughorn and said: "Before reaching the end, the scenery along the way is just an embellishment."

Slughorn held the tea cup and looked at John blankly.

At this moment, he seemed to understand that there would always be some regrets in life.

People who only have the end in their eyes will not become someone else’s ‘collection’.

"Well, I can't convince you," Slughorn was convinced by John, "but you have to give this thing a name."

"Just call the Jade Potion."

John poured the remaining potion into the bottle and filled it. The color inside was like emerald.

"Although glass is bright, jade is stronger." John filled the potion and left a meaningful sentence, "Besides, I like that green color."

"I'm having a party before Christmas," Slughorn called John, "and I want to invite you."

"As a student?" John asked.

Slughorn put down his hands, engaged in a fierce mental struggle, and finally compromised: "A friend, a pen pal, please, John."

"I will go," John bowed respectfully and chuckled, "I will prepare a bottle of oak-aged mead. I hope you will like it, Professor."

"I'll be looking forward to it," Slughorn said with a bulging belly as he watched John leave.

Genius always makes it difficult to maintain principles.

Even becoming the principal could not change Slughorn's attraction.

…

The fight between Snape and Sirius is not over.

Finally it broke out.

That morning, Slytherin, who had just finished the Defense Against the Dark Arts improvement class, was successfully deducted 10 points.

It seems that Sirius is showing mercy.

Snape responded by putting Harry in solitary confinement because he contradicted the teacher in class.

This irritated Sirius.

"Snot-nosed!" Sirius pushed open Snape's office door and pointed at Snape's nose and warned, "You'd better take back Harry's confinement!"

Snape calmly arranged the materials on his medicine shelf. Sirius looked at him with a sullen face as he finished.

Coming down from the ladder, Snape said angrily: "I'm sorry, I don't think such a thing has anything to do with you."

"After all, this matter belongs to the dean's decision-making, and you..." Snape glanced at Sirius without saltiness and sneered, "You are not the dean of Gryffindor."

In one sentence, Sirius's identity was directly suppressed.

"I'm warning you!" Sirius said angrily with fire in his eyes, "Don't think I don't know your little thoughts. You want Harry to miss the Quidditch match!"

"I don't understand what you are talking about?" Snape said in a strange tone, "Or do you think Potter can change anything?"
