Harry Potter’s Morning Light

  Chapter 2987 The Secret of No Trace (19)

Even with Quidditch, the atmosphere in the school is still very dull, like countless dementors hovering over the school, and to make matters worse, there is a Ministry of Magic official who is sneaking around, trying to find the legend Creatures that pose a threat to young wizards.

  After pulling the Mandrake out of the basin, Severus immediately put it into the prepared ice water, and the cry of the Mandrake shattered the ice.

  After it sank into the water, it kept trying to struggle, looking like a drowning person, trying to swim out of the water.

This scene was shocking to watch, and Pomona didn't know whether to stop him for a moment, but the mandrake struggled for a while and then stopped moving, and then Severus lifted it out of the ice water and held it carefully before his eyes. look up.

   The ice water washed away the remaining soil on the Mandrake. This Mandrake infected with "Dancing Acid" had many red spots on its body, which looked like patterns of flames.

   "Very good." Severus praised, "It's what I want."

   "What do you want this advanced broad-spectrum antidote for?" Pomona asked.

  He remained silent, and replanted the mandrake back into the flower pot.

  Pomona poking fun at himself, looking at buckets full of ice water.

   "Our neighbors need it," Severus said quietly. "It works great for spider bites."

   "You mean the centaur?" asked Pomona.

   "The spider's bite isn't fatal, but it's annoying," Severus said.

  Pomona believes that the centaurs should have a cure for the eight-eyed spider poison, but she didn't say much, as she mentioned something that shouldn't be said just now.

   "How's your Whomping Willow?" Severus asked.

   "What do you want?" Pomona asked warily.

  He seemed to be thinking about how to speak.

   "What do you want from it?" Pomona asked.

   "A little leaf." Severus smiled falsely. "And maybe some bark."

  Pomona thinks this is not a problem, and it is not a "flesh injury" to the Whomping Willow.

   "Okay." She readily agreed.

   "Have you ever been to the Shrieking Shack?" he followed up.

   "Been," said Pomona quietly.

  He didn't speak for a long time.

   "What are you doing?" She pretended to be stupid and asked back.

   "Do you know what Lupine is?" he asked.

  Pomona said nothing, she looked into Snape's eyes.

   "You know." He said firmly.

"What do you want?"

   "Do you know Animagus?" He pressed.

   "No," said Pomona distractedly.

   He looks angry.

   "You don't know Animagus, but you are still close to him?"

   In fact, she also has other transformations, but she doesn't want him to know.

   "Are you bored?" he asked.

   "No." Pomona said "I know you care about me, thank you for your kindness, but those things are in the past."

   "If you are really friends, you should remind him that Barnaby's uncle is hunting people like him everywhere."

   "I'll pay attention." Pomona said, her heart was heavy, and she couldn't smile as freely as she did with Sirius and the others.

  Severus fumbled for something to say.

  He is such a person, lacks a sense of humor, and is rigid at a young age. It is impossible to expect a place full of laughter with him.

   If he goes out with a girl, nine times out of ten he will screw up the date and they will think he is boring.

   "I have a question," Pomona said.

   "What's the problem?" he asked as if he had been rescued.

   "What kind of poison can be poisoned after a period of time after drinking. I didn't say one or two hours, but one or two years later." Pomona said.

  He was very confused.

   "Have you ever seen Botticelli's The Birth of Venus?" Pomona asked.

  He recalled for a moment and nodded.

"The Venus in the painting, her name is Simonita, and it is said that she is the most beautiful woman in Florence." Pomona said, "She married into the Vespucci family when she was 16 years old. The political marriage of the family, the Vespucci family obtained the asylum of the Medici family, and the Medici family obtained the iron ore mining rights of Piombino. One died, even their servants, and Simonita said, 'All will not be spared, because we have all drunk'."

   "So you're asking me what poison kicks in a year or two after taking it?" Severus asked.

  Pomona nodded.

  He began to think. In fact, she didn't want the answer that much, but she just didn't want to be silent.

   "Who do you want to poison?" He said suddenly.

   "What?" Pomona asked in surprise.

   "Otherwise, why are you asking this?"

  Pomona carefully discerned his expression.

   "Are you kidding me?" she asked after a while.

   He narrowed his eyes and smiled.

   "Haha." Pomona laughed dryly, but he really didn't understand where his smile was.

   "The only one that made it?" Severus asked.

   "No, there are more."

   "Take me to see."

   "Yes, sir." Pomona said grimly, and walked ahead without complaint.

==================================================== ===========

Ron is actually very good at chess, and that is one of the few places where he can beat Hermione, but he rarely asks Hermione to play chess who can't beat him. Instead, Hermione thinks that he can beat Ron to challenge, and then Lost land is not left behind.

  Many couples I saw in Pomona, the man occasionally deliberately loses to the woman, why not let her win once to have fun?

   "General," Severus said, checkmate her king with the castle.

   There was chaos around the chessboard, they were all pieces that had been torn apart, but for wizards, a repair spell could make them usable again.

   "Stop playing!" Pomona said angrily, she was not being lazy, she just didn't want to clean up the chess pieces.

   "How about saying 'I lost'?" he said triumphantly.

  Pomona stuck out her tongue at him.

  The chirping of insects in the wild sounds very romantic, but it also means that there are bugs everywhere, and she needs to prepare the deworming medicine.

  As a strand of incense was ignited, the smoke slowly dissipated, the sound of insects gradually disappeared, and everything around was so silent that the sound of breathing could be heard clearly.

  He came behind her, hugged her gently, and said nothing.

   It's like a cluster of small fires, slowly boiling the contents of the pot, whether it's soup or potion, they all make a gurgling sound.

  She leaned in his arms, closed her eyes, and relaxed all over.

   She finds this kind of atmosphere very peaceful, but others may not feel it, especially those who are very lively, and there is laughter everywhere so that they can't feel the feeling of loneliness.

The man who proposed to Fitzgerald saw that she could bring him peace, but if Fitzgerald agreed to marry him, he would go into his noisy world, and he would not Willing to leave his noisy world.

  In contrast, the Muggle husband of the founder of Ifamony Academy was willing to go to a place far away from human habitation, and together they built a new magic school.

  In her eyes, love is not only happy and sweet, but Rohart's view of love is so, full of chocolates, love letters and pink, his Valentine's Day at school is a disaster.

   "It's late, go to sleep," Severus said.

  She has no objection, it is indeed very late after a game of chess.

   "Drink some sleep potion?" Severus said "to save you from nightmares at night."

  She instinctively said no, she felt that she would not be affected by his nightmare.

   Then he drank it himself, lay down on the bed and soon fell into a deep sleep.

  Pomona waited for him to fall asleep before trying to close his eyes.

  She hopes that she can sleep peacefully like a child, even if there is no sweet dream, it is already a kind of happiness for her.
