Chapter 279 Snape's Potions Room

In the bustling city of London, there are always some special places hidden.

So special that they are forgotten by the gentlemen of Downing Street, and these forgotten places have become synonymous with old and dirty.

…

No. 19 Spinner's End.

In a small wooden building with a brown exterior, Harry looked around quietly in the room.

All the layouts here seem to be from the last century.

Old furniture, yellowed newspapers, dusty photos, and the vertical pendulum clock that can only be seen in antique shops.

Living room on the first floor.

When Harry looked around, Snape's eyes also inadvertently looked into Harry's eyes.

In just a moment, he felt that the thoughts in his heart were like bamboo shoots after rain, constantly emerging.

The biggest dream once was to invite another girl with the same emerald green eyes to come here as a guest.

But unfortunately, due to various factors, this invitation has never been sent out.

When Snape was silent, Harry also sighed in his heart.

Since entering Hogwarts, after finishing the first potion class, he never thought that one day he would be able to visit Snape's house.

Moreover, this is not an ordinary visit, but a stay here for half a month.

Thinking of this, Professor Dumbledore's instructions flashed through Harry's mind again. Whether or not he has learned it in half a month, he must return to Aunt Petunia's house on Privet Drive and stay there until the start of school.

Just as the two were silent, a green flame lit up in the fireplace in the room.

"Sorry! I'm late."

Ino said, while his eyes quickly swept across the living room.

Unlike Snape's calmness, Harry stood up and greeted with a smile.

"How can it be considered late without an agreed time!"

"That's possible, after all, you are all waiting for me." Ino looked around again.

Although this place is a bit old, the overall space is still sufficient. But what puzzled him was that Snape should not let Harry sleep in the living room on the first floor.

"Follow me!" Snape stood up and walked towards the stairs leading to the second floor.

The wooden stairs creaked slightly underfoot, and the group followed Snape and soon arrived at the room on the second floor.

The moment the door was opened.

Ino admitted that he underestimated his dean. It was just a room similar to the one downstairs, but the actual area was more than ten times larger.

This traceless extension spell was played beautifully, which was probably the confidence of the potion master. He simply treated the Ministry of Magic regulations as waste paper.

In the room, there were all kinds of bottles and jars, brass crucibles, and piles of brand new glass bottles.

Of course, there were also various potion materials, including countless herbal roots, magical animal viscera, and even a number of specimens that could not be named.

This was obviously where Snape brewed potions on a daily basis.

...

"Professor, do you let Harry live here?"

Ino was a little uncertain. Although it looked much more spacious than downstairs, with so many potion materials piled together, the smell could be imagined.

Although Harry did not speak, he also looked at Snape with a puzzled look.

"It's safe here." Snape explained.

"Well, you're right." Ino shrugged indifferently. As long as safety is mentioned, it doesn't matter where you live.

Besides, the place where Snape brews potions and stores materials should be safe.

Under Harry's astonished gaze, a crystal house slowly rose in the room on the second floor that looked like a small square.

The small house was not big, it looked only a dozen square meters, but both the shape and color reminded him of the mushroom house described in fairy tales when he was a child.

Unlike Harry who was watching the excitement, Snape squinted his eyes and looked carefully at the small room in front of him.

No wand and no sound, elemental transformation magic, and a house was transformed at once.

All this combined in front of him, Snape felt a sense of absurdity in his heart. The student who pretended to be mature in the past had grown to this point in just three years.

"Harry, your new house is ready, Chenghui Sansike!" Ino half-jokingly pointed to the mushroom house in front of him.

"If you feel cold, you can light the fireplace inside to keep warm! My ice and snow will not melt so easily, you can rest assured about this."

The ice house, or the isolation protection of ice and snow, is actually just to allow Harry to sleep well.

Especially when Harry said that he dreamed of turning into a snake, the connection between the Horcrux and the main soul in the unconscious state may be the key factor that is gradually affected.

Dumbledore knew that Ino also guessed this.

Because of this, he also felt that Harry was sometimes really stubborn. If he had said it early when he had a headache or dreamed for the first time, the situation would probably be much better.

But now that things have come to this, there is no point in pursuing responsibility.

...

In a small square of potions and medicinal materials.

A semicircular mushroom house with a diameter of about five or six meters and a height of about three meters stands in the middle.

Pushing open the small rolling door, Harry felt a chill coming, especially since he was still wearing a summer short-sleeved shirt.

"The flames are blazing!"

Seeing Harry's discomfort, Ino snapped his fingers, and a floating flame rose in the icy mushroom house.

When the flame appeared, the temperature in the room immediately rose a lot. The presentation of ice and fire, perhaps only magic can make them coexist perfectly.

"If you need any furniture, you can use Transfiguration to make it yourself. After all, you are not staying here permanently, so just deal with it!"

Ino took out a bag of Bibi Multi-Flavor Beans from his pocket and handed it to Harry, then walked out of the mushroom house.

In the room, Harry looked down at the candy in his hand. He knew the use of this bag of Bibi Multi-Flavor Beans.

But... using small candies to turn into furniture?

For a moment, Harry wanted to call Ino and tell him seriously that he really copied all his Transfiguration homework, and copied it without thinking.

...

After walking out of the mushroom house, Ino came to Snape.

"Professor! I have done everything I can! If you need anything else, please write to me at any time."

"Okay!" Snape nodded slightly, and then took out a bottle of dazzling potion from his pocket.

The golden and dazzling color of the Felixir is also unique among all the potions.

Seeing the familiar potion, Ino couldn't help but feel a little dazed.

For a while, he was obsessed with Felix Felicis, and even went to the Potions Office every week to deal with medicinal materials, just to be able to brew this magical potion himself one day.

However, after the start of the third year, he had the Ravenclaw crown and the ancient runes elective course, and it seemed that his pursuit of potions was stranded.

Now seeing the pursuit again, there is also a feeling that things have changed.

"Professor! I don't need Felix Felicis for the time being." Looking at the precious potion, Ino shook his head and refused.

Although the thing is good, he has no reason to accept it, because it is not Snape's turn to pay for this matter from beginning to end.

Although the potion he sent was rejected, Snape seemed to remember something else, and a smile suddenly flashed across his calm face.
