My name is Snape at Hogwarts

Chapter 61 Snape's Homework

Both morning classes were Potions class, and Slughorn had been asking the students to finish the scabies potion, and for what had been done, he said, allow them to start writing their homework in class.

Assignment: To write a thesis on scabies potion, three feet long, or almost three parchments.

In fact, this assignment is quite difficult for the students to complete. It is estimated that Slughorn also wants to screen out students who really have the talent for potions.

"This homework is so difficult." Lily wrinkled her small face and looked at Snape pitifully. "Do you have any good ideas, Sev?"

Pandora also looked at Snape expectantly. It seemed that she also encountered difficulties now.

"It's not difficult if you just want to write a thesis on scabies potion." Snape rubbed his wand, looking thoughtful, "However, to complete the three-foot length, you need to think."

"What did you think of?" Pandora asked impatiently.

Pandora like this is quite rare!Snape glanced at her, thought for a while, and suddenly came up with an idea: "We can write down the formula of the potion first, then write down the brewing steps and points that need attention in each step, and finally, write down about our own Thinking about potions should be enough."

"Is that so?" Pandora lowered her head and thought for a while, then she showed a big smile to Snape, "I see, you are still the smartest."

"I understand." Lily also nodded, and said energetically, "Then let's start, and try to finish it before get out of class ends!"

The two little girls took out their Potions textbooks and began to write quickly.

Snape smiled, and also took out the parchment and quill, sorted out his thoughts a bit, and began to write.

"Scabies Potion and Potion Conjecture.

Scabies potion.....

Precautions........"

After finishing writing the contents of the scabies potion, Snape paused for a moment and continued writing.

"After the brewing of the potion is completed, there is residue left in the crucible. From this, it can be seen that although a lot of materials are used in the brewing of the potion, only the effective part of it is actually used.

Therefore

Conjecture [-]: Can the effective part of the medicine be extracted, and if so, how to do it?

Conjecture [-]: If the effective part can be extracted, will the medicine be liquid in the end?Can it be solid?If so, is the actual effect of solid and liquid consistent?Which of the two medicines in different presentation forms is better absorbed by the human body?

Guess three:  …

......."

A few conjectures were written down, and soon another piece of parchment was filled. Snape immediately took out another piece of parchment, and continued to write vigorously.

"According to Professor Slughorn, potion science and alchemy are the two most sophisticated disciplines in the magic world, so is there some connection between the two? If so, what is the connection? Can both be used? A bit of a combination of...

Conjectures and improvements on potion tools..."

After patching together, I finally finished writing this thing that I don't know if it is a thesis or something.After finishing writing, Snape read it casually, nodded with satisfaction, and put it aside, ready to hand it in when get out of class was over.

Although he thought so, Slughorn couldn't wait.

In fact, he had already been deeply impressed by this outstanding student. Whether it was Snape's knowledge accumulation or operation level, they were far beyond what a first-year student should have.

Potions is a subject that is very particular about talent, which is recognized by the magic world. Therefore, every student who has the potential to become a master of potions is extremely precious and its value is immeasurable.

For Slughorn, he is not so much a successful professor as he is a successful investor. However, what he invests is not money items, but people. He likes to invest in those who have Some gifted people.This is why he has always had a huge network of people.

For outstanding talents, he has always taken good care of them, regardless of their background, this is his hobby and a habit.

In Slughorn's view, Snape had a very high talent for potions, but he was not sure, so he deliberately assigned this homework.

Yes, although this homework was reserved for all the students, in fact, all he wanted was Snape's answer.

"Mr. Snape?" Slughorn saw Snape put the parchment aside, and asked with a smile, "You seem to have finished your homework?"

"Yes, Professor!" Snape nodded.

"Would you mind letting me take a look?" Slughorn looked at Snape. "To be honest, I'm very interested in your homework, and I can't wait."

"Of course, if you want." Snape shrugged, and with a flick of his wand, the parchment that had already been written on it floated up and flew straight towards Slughorn.

"Nice floating spell." Slughorn praised, took the parchment in his hand, and flipped through it.

Seeing the first page, he smiled and nodded.

By the second page, his smile disappeared.

When he saw the third page, his brows began to wrinkle.

"Hiss—" He looked up at Snape, took a deep breath, and looked at Snape's homework again.This time, he undoubtedly took it much more seriously.

Skip the first page directly, and read it directly from the second page, reading slowly, frowning, twirling his mustache with one hand, muttering something incessantly.

"Huh—" After reading it again, he let out a breath and looked at Snape with a complicated expression.

"Severus, I remember your name should be this." Slughorn looked at Snape solemnly, "If you hadn't done this assignment in front of me, I would never have believed it. You wrote it."

"I'm not qualified to comment on it." Slughorn forced a smile, "However, I hope you can complete all your conjectures on it, can you?"

"Of course, I'm a Ravenclaw," Snape replied.

"Ah, yes, Ravenclaw, there is no doubt that you are!" Slughorn nodded, thought for a moment, and said softly, "May I make a request?"

"of course."

"I want to be the first to know if you make any progress with these conjectures of yours." Slughorn said solemnly, "In exchange, I can provide you with any help you want." .Remember, anything!"

Snape naturally knew the weight of Slughorn's words. After hesitating for a moment, he nodded, "I have no reason to refuse, do I?"

"That's the best." Slughorn smiled. "To be honest, your homework also gave me some inspiration. Perhaps, I should also say thank you."

"It's not necessary." Snape shook his head. "I don't have enough materials. If the professor can help me, I think we can finish it together."

"Together?" Slughorn hesitated, then nodded. "Well, as long as I have time."

"I mean, the kind that signed together..."
