Chapter 150 Mysterious Potion

"Need..." Hephis drew out the tone, "You keep it a secret."

"Hephis." Hermione punched him angrily.

"Okay, I won't tease you anymore. There is indeed something I need you to do." Hephes took out a photo stone.

"Just take this photo stone and record a 360-degree video of Banban."

Hermione took a deep breath and said, "Okay, I'll drop Crookshanks off in the house and then go find Ron."

"Don't be so anxious." Hephis searched in his small bag and took out a bottle of potion.

"This is for you. Just say it's an apology to Banban."

Hermione took the potion and looked at it, "What is this?"

Hephis curled his lips and smiled wickedly, "A potion that can make it particularly energetic."

Hermione looked at the reddish-brown potion. She even opened it and sniffed it, but couldn't tell what kind of potion it was. "What the hell is this!"

Hephis leaned close to Hermione's ear and whispered a few words.

Hermione's face turned red instantly, "Hephis, you want to die!"

She quickly threw the potion aside and beat Hephis' chest with her little fist.

They laughed and joked for a while.

Hermione suddenly stopped smiling and looked serious.

"Hephis, tell me honestly, what do you use this thing for?"

"What are you thinking about?" Hephis tapped Hermione's forehead lightly.

"You forgot what Hagrid said before Christmas. The male-female ratio of the Moon-crazy Beasts in the Forbidden Forest is seriously unbalanced. Now the ratio of males to females has reached ten to one."

Hermione finally realized, "So... I thought you were..."

She saw Hephis's teasing look and stepped hard on him.

Then she picked up Crookshanks, hesitated for a moment, and finally picked up the potion on the sofa.

"Hmph!" Hermione snorted coldly and left without looking back.

Hephis looked at her back and found it even funnier.

He laughed out loud only after Hermione left the Room of Requirement.

Hermione suddenly came back with a surprise attack.

He poked his head in through the crack in the door, showing his little fangs. "What a joke! Be careful or I'll add this potion to your food one day."

Hephis was naturally not afraid, "Be careful, if you hurt the enemy by 800, you will lose 1,000 of your own."

Hermione was stunned for a moment, then she realized something and her face turned red.

She slammed the door and left angrily.

"You little brat, you still want to fight me." Hephis shook his head and chuckled, feeling much better.

He saw much more than that in Crookshanks' memory, there was something even more interesting.

He didn't tell Hermione though.

He was worried that Hermione might not be able to help but tell Harry.

It turns out that Sirius Black was in Hogsmeade, and his accomplice was Crookshanks.

So who is Banban?

Someone who can make a person give up resistance and escape from Azkaban at all costs and kill him.

Hephis was actually quite curious about this matter.

He simply used Apparition and came to the kitchen.

In the kitchen, hundreds of house-elves were washing and brushing when they saw Hephis coming.

They all stopped what they were doing, gathered around, and bowed respectfully, "Master."

Hephis was used to it, so he stated his purpose directly.

"Are there any of you who are good at concealment magic and tracking?"

The house-elves looked at each other, and only one house-elf raised his hand high.

Hephis waved his hand, motioning her to come over, "What's your name?"

Qiqi straightened her chest and said in a sharp voice: "Master, my name is Qiqi."

"Qiqi, come with me, I have a task for you." Hephis ordered.

"Yes, Master!" Kiki's voice was full of joy.

Hephis took Qiqi and performed Apparition again and returned to his dormitory.

The other house-elves who were not chosen showed disappointment on their faces when they saw Hephis leave.

But what Hephis didn't know was.

This time of recruiting, he unexpectedly added an army of house-elfs to his army.

It is a shame that the house-elf was not chosen because he was unable to help his master.

So they learned from their mistakes and became more courageous, which led to a craze for learning magic.

In addition to completing their daily work at Hogwarts, they also practice other magic inherited from their ancestors.

They hope that one day they will be chosen by Hephis.

In the dormitory, Hephis transmitted the scenes in Crookshanks' memory to Kiki.

The task he assigned was to have Kiki go to Hogsmeade to find the big black dog.

If possible, try to capture it.

If it's difficult to do, just notify him and he will handle it personally.

After Qiqi received the task, she was full of energy.

After thanking Hephis, she couldn't wait to use Apparition to set off.

To Hephis, Qiqi was just a chess move he made casually.

It would be best if you can catch it, but it doesn’t matter if you can’t.

His most important task now was to find something for Dumbledore to do.

Because Snape sent him a message during the Christmas holidays.

Dumbledore has been going to the Ministry of Magic frequently recently, and no one knows what he is doing.

Hephis looked at the time and it was almost curfew.

But as an old man, I sleep less.

So he went to the third floor and stood in front of the stone monster.

"Can I go in directly?" Hephis asked softly, looking at the stone monster in front of him that seemed to be half asleep.

The stone monster hesitated for a while, then jumped aside.

The wall behind it slowly cracked open, revealing a spiral staircase winding upwards.

"Thank you." Hephis raised the corner of his mouth.

It seemed that his guess was correct, he had gained ownership of more than just the kitchen.

To a certain extent, he gained partial control over Hogwarts, but An An didn't know it.

He stepped onto the stairs and slowly ascended as they spiraled.

Finally, we arrived at the principal's office on the eighth floor, which had a brass knocker on it.

Hephis knocked gently on the door.

"Come in." Dumbledore's voice came from inside the door.

"Good evening, Principal." Hephis greeted politely and walked into the principal's office.

Dumbledore was wearing purple pajamas at this time, and seemed to have just come out of the room behind him, the door of which was still half open.

The office is round in shape, with various exquisite silver items displayed on the table.

They were spinning slowly, emitting a faint smoke.

Portraits of former principals were hung on the walls, all pretending to be asleep.

Hephesus discovered that the people in some of the portraits had their eyes secretly opened a little, but they were snoring slightly from their mouths.

"I'm so sorry to bother you so late."

Hefeth said apologetically, but there was no sincerity in his tone.

"It's okay. You can come to me, it must be something very important." Dumbledore said with a smile.
