Campus life at Hogwarts is still very fulfilling.

Before they knew it, Hermione, Harry and the others had spent nearly two months in school.

Harry successfully joined the Hufflepuff Quidditch team with the consent of the principal and dean.

In addition to daily exercise and Holy Light meditation, all his spare time from studying was dedicated to Quidditch.

And under Cedric's one-on-one tutoring, he made rapid progress.

Cedric even discovered that Harry's talent in Quidditch was indeed extraordinary, so he came up with the idea of ​​giving Harry the Seeker position.

It's just that the team's senior players don't seem willing to take this risk.

Harry didn't care about this. For him, Quidditch could bring him happiness, and that was enough.

Neville also found his own hobby...that is to help Professor Sprout grow herbs in his spare time...

Neville's talent in this area was already very strong, but due to mental problems when he first went to school in the original time and space, some of his talents, including herbal medicine, could not show up at all.

But when he was in the third grade, he became a little calmer and showed it, thus gaining the favor of Professor Sprout.

In this time and space, because Neville has mastered the Holy Light, his mental recovery speed is very fast, and he has the influence of Hermione as a mentor and friend, so he showed his talent earlier - after all, Neville is not as powerful as some people. If you don't learn well, you won't see others doing well, and you have the habit of speaking ill of others behind their backs.

He has always been an honest child.

As for Hermione...

"Getting scolded again?" In the office, John said in amusement as he looked at Hermione who came back from Snape's office looking helpless.

"...Hey, no matter what I do, I can't satisfy Professor Snape!" Hermione sighed.

"Haha... You are so greedy to satisfy Snape!" John couldn't help but raise his eyebrows after hearing this.

It can only be said that he is indeed a top student who likes to challenge the impossible. He actually wants to satisfy Snape, a potion master recognized by the entire magic world, with his mere first-year knowledge?

Sure enough, newborn calves are not afraid of tigers.

Yes, just like Harry joined the Quidditch team, Neville became an herbal "apprentice".

Hermione also found her favorite profession...potions.

In fact, this can be seen from the original book. Whenever Harry and Ron do something, almost all the potions they need are prepared by Hermione, and there is almost never an error.

Could this be the origin of family education? After all, a dentist is also a doctor.

It's just that Hermione's potions in the original time and space were all carefully learned from the textbooks and Snape's teachings. She can accurately configure some existing potions.

But it is simply impossible to become a potion master with just this.

Because she couldn't learn more advanced principles of potion preparation.

Hogwarts doesn't teach this stuff.

In the final analysis, Hogwarts, a magic school, compared to a school for ordinary people, can only be regarded as a school that pays more attention to practical exercises, with a combination of junior high and high school, plus a one-year intensive class.

In the magic world where there are no universities, there are only two ways to learn more advanced knowledge about a certain system - apprenticeship or self-taught.

This can also be regarded as one of the shortcomings of the educational field in the magical world.

But this is also something that can't be done.

Population and social systems are limiting all this.

There is no doubt that compared to self-taught, learning from a teacher is the easier path.

As for the potions master at Hogwarts, apart from Dumbledore, the old monster, Snape, the half-blood prince, is the first. Who dares to be second?

Didn’t you see that Harry, the scumbag from middle school in the original book, just got his notes and the efficiency and effectiveness of making potions, and he directly crushed the college bully Hermione?

Therefore, if Hermione wanted to make great progress in potions, becoming Snape's apprentice was undoubtedly the best solution.

Of course, if Hermione from the original time and space wanted to be Snape's apprentice, our Snape would definitely not even look at him.

It's just that in this time and space, Snape actually owed John a big favor because of the incident with Pettigrew.

So when John personally brought Hermione to the door and gave him a large amount of valuable rare potion materials, Snape finally had to bite the bullet and reluctantly accepted Hermione. apprentice".

As a master of potions, Snape is very wealthy. The potions he prepares are marketable and priceless in the wizarding world.

However, some rare materials, especially those controlled by the Ministry of Magic, are not easy to obtain even by the Sect.

But it just so happens that there are some special materials in the church warehouses that are not controlled by the Ministry of Magic in various countries.

Anyway, not many of the old men in the church are good at potions. It would be a waste to store these materials in the warehouse. It is better for John to bring them to the church and use the remaining heat.

And Snape also has a cold-faced and warm-hearted character.

Either you don't accept apprentices, and if you do, you must be responsible to the end.

Therefore, Hermione's teachings can be said to be extremely strict.

Want to satisfy him? Unless one day Hermione's potion skills surpass his, or maybe he's about to die.

"Yes, yes, I know that Professor Snape is the most outstanding potions master of our time, the Einstein of the potions world..." Hermione could only complain weakly.

But there was no other way. Who gave her consent to be Snape's apprentice?

"By the way, what's the secret in the corridor on the right side of the fourth floor?" Hermione suddenly asked.

"Huh? Why did you suddenly think of asking this?" John was puzzled.

"Well... I just found that Professor Snape often hangs around there, but does nothing... Plus, Professor Dumbledore specifically warned him when school started..." Hermione shrugged.

"...Good guy, are you following Snape?" Hearing Hermione's words, John looked at the little girl speechlessly.

"How can you say it's stalking? I'm just caring about my mentor!" Hermione rolled her eyes and said.

"That's not right... With your tracking skills, there's no way Snape can't detect it... Good guy, is this what I gave you Jigglypuff for?" John reacted quickly.

"Hey, no." Hermione was a little embarrassed after being guessed by John.

"You didn't let Jigglypuff in there, did you?" John asked with a frown.

"No, I promise!" Hermione immediately raised her hands.

"Then you're lucky. There's a three-headed dog locked up there. If Jigglypuff gets in, it won't be enough for him to swallow." John said angrily.

He didn't expect that in this time and space, Hermione, who was usually so busy and without the naughty child's guidance, could still notice the room where Lu Wei was locked up.

"???? Three-headed dog? Why is there this in the school?" Hermione's eyes widened.

"As long as you know, don't talk about it. If any naughty kid knows about curiosity, it will be a big deal if something happens." John said angrily.
