Chapter 657 Stealing and Gifting

Oh, Miss Brown, why haven't you left yet? It's time to turn off the lights soon...

In the small hall with a warm atmosphere just now, Slughorn was about to pack up his things and leave, but when he turned around, he found that there was still a person standing at the door. But probably because he drank some wine earlier, his eyes seem to be a little erratic now.

Therefore, when he saw Lavender by the door, he squinted his eyes and looked carefully before asking a little dullly.

Professor Slughorn, in fact, I have something to ask you... Lavender pretended to lower his head, showing a look of embarrassment on purpose, It's like this...Actually, I think Please give me a bottle of detumescence.

Swellers? Are you hurt?

After all, Slughorn was an excellent potions master. Even in a state of drunkenness, he can immediately respond to problems related to his major.

I think you should go to the school hospital, Pomfrey will cure you, she has always been very capable!

Yes, you are right, but... Lavender took two steps forward, and said coyly, Professor, I want to take the medicine myself, but Madam Pomfrey will never allow me If you do that, you won't give me the potion.

Do it yourself? Why? Slughorn asked suspiciously, Although there is nothing wrong with sending you a bottle of detumescence medicine, after all, it is very cheap...but let me say, if you are injured, you still have to go to the school hospital to have a look. That's good, because sometimes you may not be able to see the problem yourself. It's not good if it gets worse because you delay the treatment time... Well, where did you hurt?

As soon as he heard the old man ask this question, a light flashed in Lavender's eyes.

Oh...Professor Slughorn, she said sheepishly, I'm hurt...you...do you really want to know?

While speaking, Lavender subconsciously covered his collar, as if he felt some inappropriate gaze. At this moment, even if Slughorn didn't look at it at all, he couldn't help but have the illusion that I seemed to have glanced at it by accident just now.

Uh...cough... The old man cleared his throat in embarrassment, and most of the drunkenness that was originally only slightly drunk has dissipated, Okay! If you just want a bottle of detumescence, of course it's no problem... ...you come with me! I left my medicine box in the office...

Thank you! Thank you very much... Lavender quickly complimented, I knew you would definitely agree, because you are the most kind and kind professor I have ever met!

Oh,

It's really nothing, Slughorn said as he walked quickly to the door without turning his head, Of course, if something is still wrong after taking the medicine, then you must go to the school hospital, understand?

Okay, I see. Lavender responded obediently with her sweet and greasy voice, and for a while, the old man's pace was obviously faster.

After waiting, the two rushed to Slughorn's office one after the other. The old man just wanted Lavender to wait at the door, but the latter stepped forward first.

I haven't been to your office yet! I heard that each professor's office has its own characteristics, Lavender said curiously, Do you mind if I go in and take a look?

While she was talking, she kept looking at Slughorn expectantly, which overwhelmed the old man.

Of course I wouldn't mind... I mean, if you're not worried about missing lights out...

As Slughorn reached out his wand and tapped lightly on the doorknob, the door of the office was instantly opened. And not long after he entered the office, Lavender followed closely.

But she saw that she looked around curiously, and the next moment, a box almost half the height of a person quickly came into her eyes. It actually looked a lot like a Muggle refrigerator, and it was the upright kind.

Is this your potion box? It looks awesome! Lavender said excitedly, Professor, which floor is the detumescence?

Ah, it's the third floor from top to bottom, it's on the left hand side. Seeing this, Slughorn had to raise his wand and point at a distance, and opened the potion box, Light brown potion bottle, See? I put a label on the bottle, it should be easy to find...

Beige... um, is it this? Lavender looked around inside, the old man said it was the left hand side, but she kept looking around, as if she was looking for something.

Just when she heard Slughorn's footsteps approaching, she finally caught a glimpse of a familiar light in the corner of her eyes.

Oh! I think I found it

Lavender picked up the light brown potion bottle with a white label from the third floor, then turned around and raised his right hand and shook it at the old man.

Is this it, Professor?

She was taken aback by the fact that Slughorn had come up behind her. Fortunately, she was well prepared, her face was tense and she didn't show anything unusual.

Yes, that's right... The old man nodded and said, You found the right one.

“It was really nice”

Lavender was serious and perfunctory, but the left hand hidden behind his back quietly probed for the spot he was looking at just now. Because she had already put her left hand there before, this grasp was quite accurate, and the bottle of potion with the red label was directly held in her hand.

Professor, um... Although I asked you for this, but... After getting what she wanted, she started to put on a pose again, I can really take it, can't I?

Of course, of course. Slughorn waved his hand, Don't worry too much, it's just a bottle of detumescence! Compared to this, I'm actually more worried about whether you will miss the lights-out time! Look, I'm going to order it soon!

As he said, he looked back at the wall clock on the wall, and Lavender took the opportunity to put the potion bottle in his left hand into his pocket.

Ah... this is really regrettable, I still want to take a good look at your office! She stomped her feet pretending to be disappointed, Professor, can I come over at another time in the future?

No problem, as long as I'm here, I'm welcome at any time. The old man smiled and said, I can tell you about some of the students I have taught in the past. I believe you will be interested!

That sounds good, Lavender walked towards the door while looking around in the office, Then...Professor, I will go back to the dormitory today...Good night!

She walked outside the door, and was about to close the office door for Slughorn, and then secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but suddenly heard another voice.

Miss Brown... Can you give me a reasonable explanation for why you are here?

This time she was completely unprepared, so she finally trembled from fright. Of course, the one who spoke was undoubtedly Snape who was in charge of patrolling after the lights were turned off tonight. As far as his cold tone was concerned, there was no one who was not impressed.

Of course, before you explain, Snape said flatly, Gryffindor will deduct 5 points.

...

While Lavender was secretly worrying about his misfortune, Harry and the others had already returned to the common room. It was just because of a small thing that the three of them hadn't gone to the dormitory to prepare for bed.

Right now, they are gathered around a round table, and then the light coming in from the window looks at a gift box placed on the table. This bauble was beautifully packaged, with no shortage of ribbons and decorations, and it was a gift from Slughorn to Hermione at the dessert tasting.

It is said to be a gift, but it is actually a prize won by Hermione. According to Slughorn, he mixed Felicia into a box of chocolates to make it more like a gift for a lady.

Unfortunately, Hermione wasn't very interested in whether it was still in a bottle, or turned into chocolate like it was now. But because of the old man's face, she still accepted it.

Harry, don't you think there may be side effects? It's yours now. Hermione said, pushing the gift box containing chocolates towards Harry.

No, no, I thought about it just now. Since Maca said it, it shouldn't be wrong. Harry pushed it back immediately, Besides, isn't this a prize given to you by the professor? It's for you.

But I don't want it! Hermione pushed it over again, Don't push it over! No matter what, you can keep it for collection or throw it away, anyway, I don't want it!

After that, she turned her head and walked straight to the stairs leading to the girls' dormitory. Harry picked up the gift box, first looked around, and then subconsciously looked at Ron beside him.

Hey, don't look at me! Ron quickly jumped to the side. I can't bear to be lucky first and then unlucky. I would rather nothing happen. Life is good now!

Don't worry, I won't give it to you. Harry shook his head immediately, and said firmly, I can't bear it if you leave it carelessly.

Then you don't go to my bedside table to pick up zizi honey candy and eat it! Ron suddenly said angrily, You are so rich, and you always steal candy from me, a poor man...

Isn't that because you always refuse when I invite you? Harry rolled his eyes at him.

Okay, don't say these are useless! Ron suddenly snatched the gift box from Harry's hand, and put it back on the table, Stay here! Whoever wants it can take it. It's okay...

Then at least I have to leave a reminder for everyone. Harry took out a quill pen from his schoolbag and wrote a line on the gift box, then put away the pen and ink and clapped his hands, Okay! We can go to sleep!

After finishing speaking, the two walked shoulder to shoulder and walked towards the dormitory, and soon disappeared at the stairs.
