Noah's depressed appearance naturally attracted the attention of the professors.
Today they are going to take an herbal medicine class, and Professor Sprout is gently teaching the students how to distinguish crab claws from devil's nets.
Of course, what is in front of the little wizard is the crab claw plant, and what is in front of the professor is the devil's net.
"Noah," Professor Sprout called him, "you look a little sleepy."
"Sorry, Professor." Noah blinked, wondering if he was being too obvious. This little sleepiness didn't cause him much trouble, at least it didn't affect his class.
"Even if you are studying, you still need to pay attention to your health." Professor Sprout said gently, "But can you help me get those mints?"
"Okay, Professor." Noah nodded and left his seat to get a pot of mint.
The mint grass cultivated in the wizarding world is different from ordinary mint. Its leaf veins are hollow, and some refreshing particles will be ejected from it when pressed lightly. These particles can invigorate people and are the original stimulant materials.
Noah picked up a pot, gently pinched a leaf, and smelled the mint scent. His originally tired spirit immediately felt refreshed.
He carried the mint basin to Professor Sprout's side, placed it in her hand according to the professor's instructions, and returned to his seat.
The professor's preference for him was reflected.
The Ravenclaw students who were in class with Slytherin couldn't help but glance at Noah, and in the end they could only admit that he did have the capital to be favored.
After all, some Ravenclaw students would ask Noah questions.
After class, Noah took the initiative to stay and help clean the greenhouse.
Professor Sprout did not refuse, but asked Noah to be careful.
Just as Noah was placing a pot of crab claw orchid, the door of the greenhouse was suddenly opened, and Professor Yuri Siaster and Professor Keltburn walked in together.
"Pomona," Professor Keltburn said in a depressed tone, "I got the poison ivy you wanted back for you."
"Thank you, Professor Silvanus." Professor Sprout stepped forward happily and took a small ball made of vines from the other party's hand. After looking at it carefully for a while, he noticed that Professor Keltburn was depressed. The look of, "What happened?"
It was Professor Ulysses who answered her: "Professor Silvanus' new love, a growing rune snake, suddenly disappeared."
Noah, who was moving flowerpots: "...!"
He paused slightly, subconsciously burying his head and slowing down his breathing, as if he didn't exist.
It shouldn't be that coincidental, right?
Professor Keltburn's tone immediately became sad, and he even raised his hand to wipe the corners of his eyes: "What a beautiful little guy that is. If I had known better, I shouldn't have put it in the forest."
Professor Ulysses was a little helpless: "Professor, maybe it just changed its territory, right?"
Moreover, it is impossible for you to raise that snake by yourself. Release it into the forbidden forest is the best result.
Thinking of this, Professor Ulysses couldn't help but rub his forehead. He shouldn't have helped the old professor contact his brother and get a rune snake.
But Professor Keltburn could no longer persuade him. He seemed to be getting more and more uncomfortable the more he thought about it, and his white beard looked a lot thinner: "I haven't introduced it to the students yet. It is so cute. How lovable you are when those three little heads look at you..."
Professor Ulysses & Noah: "..." No, that's not cute at all! Even though he was still in his growth stage, he was still a big guy four feet long, four feet, over a meter long! ! !
Moreover, the appearance of rune snakes is notoriously scary, so how cute is it? Are you sure letting the snake out to the students won't scare them? !
But Professor Ulysses couldn't say it, and Noah... Noah didn't dare to say it.
Good guy, he said why are there runes here? It turns out they were raised by the professor.
Thinking of this, Noah became even quieter than a chicken. He quickly moved all the flower pots and planned to sneak away quietly.
But there are always surprises.
"Isn't this Noah?" After leaving the class, Professor Ulysses directly called Noah by his name. "You won't have any classes later, right?"
Noah nodded: "Yes, Professor."
Professor Ulysses' eyes lit up: "That's just right. Professor Silvanus has been in a hurry recently because of a group of fire crabs."
Noah: "?" What did you just say? ! Fire crab? ? ?
Doesn't that thing live by the sea? Why does Hogwarts exist? ? ?
Rune snakes, fire crabs, does Professor Dumbledore know what dangerous things you have brought to the school? !
Although fire crabs are not more harmful than rune snakes, don't these things protect living creatures? ! Where are you from? !
Noah thought this was somewhat outrageous.
Although he didn't know the situation, Noah didn't want to help at all.
After all, he was the one who killed the rune snake...
But Professor Ulysses was not surprised at all: "You don't have any classes in the afternoon, right?"
Noah tried to struggle: "Professor, I still have homework..."
"The homework I assigned?" Professor Ulysses didn't care at all about his struggle, "I remember you finished it in the morning. I heard that you stayed up late to write. It's not good to bury it in the library all the time. Occasionally, you need to practice and relax.”
Noah: “…”
In the end, Noah was almost dragged away by Professor Ulysses, and by the way, Professor Keltebourne, who had been immersed in sadness, was also taken away.
Professor Sprout breathed a visible sigh of relief when he sent them away. He probably couldn't bear the old professor's tragic confession, and he had no intention of rescuing Noah.
In the end, Noah was dragged to the cabin next to the Forbidden Forest.
Hagrid was squatting in the yard messing around with something. He stood up immediately when he saw them coming back, but his expression froze for a moment when he noticed Noah.
He opened his mouth and finally mumbled something.
"Hagrid, how are you?" Professor Kettleburn seemed to have forgotten his previous sadness and asked Hagrid cheerfully, "How are those fire crabs?"
"Sleeping." Hagrid, like Kettleburn, is a fan of magical creatures, so when he mentioned the fire crabs, he immediately forgot the dissatisfaction he felt when he saw Noah before, "I just fed them a little shrimp. Those little guys have great appetites.”
Professor Kettleburn nodded: "We have no choice but to clean them up."
Noah now knew what he had been brought here for.
But what he doesn't understand is that he doesn't need to do this kind of thing at all, right? ! Need a student to help clean up a few fire crabs? ? ?
