The Hogwarts Emerald

Chapter 338 Snape's Revenge
In fact, considering Ada's grades and abilities, she can do her best whether she works as an Auror in the Ministry of Magic or becomes a therapist at St. Mungo's in the future.

But this was Ada's first time saving someone. She had always been a killer before, so she was inevitably a little unsure. So she didn't brag about her medicine curing the disease in front of the twins.

From a Muggle doctor's perspective, Ada's techniques and methods were definitely unprofessional. She was indeed unprofessional. She was just copying what she had seen before.

To be on the safe side, Ada used up a whole bottle of disinfectant. If Madam Pomfrey saw her wasting money like this, the miraculous healer would probably want to beat Ada to death.

At the same time, Ada also used a healing spell on Blake's wound to help it heal. It can be said that Ada did everything she could, and the rest depends on whether Blake himself can survive.

We don't know how Madam Pomfrey felt when she found a bunch of potions lost in the castle at this moment, but we can roughly guess Snape's mood.

The twins took a lot of raw materials from Snape's private storage room. In order to conceal their true purpose, they also took a lot of other unnecessary things, but all of this could not be hidden from Snape's eyes.

In Hogwarts, the only person who dared to steal the Potions Professor's secrets was Ada. Although Hermione had done it before, the little girl's method was too clumsy and could not be compared with Ada and the twins.

Although Fred and George tried to cover it up, Snape thought it was just an attempt to cover up the truth and was unnecessary.

The Potions Professor didn't intend to ask Ada what she wanted to do, but it was necessary to teach Ada a lesson. Snape probably had a plan in mind by now.

Ada, who was preparing a blood-replenishing potion, knew nothing about this and was unaware that the "danger" was approaching quietly.

"Ada," asked George, who was helping to process the raw materials, "Should we tell Dumbledore about this?"

"It depends on Black's recovery." Ida picked up the bottle of salamander blood and dripped a few drops into the crucible. "If his condition doesn't continue to deteriorate, I don't plan to tell Dumbledore for the time being."

Telling Dumbledore about Black's situation is the safest way to deal with it. No matter whether there are any suspicious points on Black or how serious his injuries are, let Dumbledore take care of it.

In this way, Ada will not have to bear any responsibility, but it is unknown whether she can continue to participate in the follow-up of the "Black Prison Break Incident".

Although Dumbledore expressed his doubts about the "Black escape" itself, Ada was unsure whether Dumbledore could satisfy his curiosity after learning the truth.

Besides, Ada didn't want to rely on Dumbledore for everything, as there would always be a day when he could not be relied upon.

That's why Ada made a seemingly irresponsible and troublesome decision. She had to cure Black, prevent him from escaping from her hands, and protect him from being found by the Ministry of Magic.

This is simply asking for trouble!

After adding the Horklapp juice to the crucible, the blood-replenishing potion was basically complete. The liquid in the crucible had turned blood red, and when it turned light red, it could be given to Blake.

Hoklapp juice is a substance extracted from Hoklapp. The potion made with it can help heal. It is more effective when used with distilled essence.

Native to northern Europe, the plant looks like a fleshy pink mushroom covered in black bristles. Goblins love to fill their bellies with horkrup.

As the night deepened, Ada returned to Blake's bedside. The fugitive had not yet woken up. Ada took her magic wand and walked around the room. Wherever she walked, a blazing blue flame rose.

Fred and George had seen this fire last year, so the brothers would not be surprised even though the burning fire did not catch fire on anything in the house.

The flames formed a circle and continued to spread outward. After hitting the doors, windows, and walls, the flames did not stop but burned upward along the walls, eventually meeting at the ceiling of the room. Only then did the blue flames gradually die out. "Okay, this way, no one can come in except us. Even if Blake wakes up, he can't escape." Ada said, "This magic will automatically identify people passing by the flames. If someone who doesn't agree with me passes by, he will be burned to ashes."

Then Ada walked to the doors and windows and added Confusion Charm and Expulsion Charm to them respectively to prevent someone from breaking into the room without knowing and dying.

After taking protective measures, the fatigue from a day's hard work immediately came over Ada and the twins did not return to the castle, but chose to stay in Twilight Cottage for the night.

Fortunately, the Fat Lady, the dormitory manager, was only responsible for opening and closing the door, and not for checking the dormitories, otherwise Ada and the twins' behavior of not returning home at night would be immediately discovered, and Sirius Black's whereabouts would be immediately exposed.

In the next few days, everything was normal in the school, and no one noticed that the fugitive from Azkaban was hiding in the Twilight Cottage.

In addition to classes and Quidditch training, the twins also had to go to the cabin to look after Black. As for Ada, she had little time to go to the cabin because she was suffering from Snape's personal revenge.

Snape did not even wait until the fifth-year students went to Potions class. He took his revenge on Ada on Monday, using the "crime" that Ada had not fulfilled her duties as a prefect and had not caught the escaped Black.

This is sheer nonsense. The charge is so crude. If this can be used to punish Ada, then everyone in the Ministry of Magic must be punished.

But Snape didn't need rationality. What the Potions Professor needed was a "fault". The "crime" Snape first thought of was that Ada washed her hair too often and the smell of the shampoo was very pungent.

Well, Ada would rather accept the crime of not fulfilling her duties as a prefect and not catching Blake than the pungent smell of shampoo.

The reason was weird, and Ada was already prepared to be bullied by Snape. However, she didn't expect Snape's revenge to come so quickly and so violently.

This detention was real detention. Ada was assigned to clean the trophy display room and the girls' bathroom. At the same time, Ada had to work for Snape for free at night, dealing with the raw materials for potions used by lower grade students.

Flobberworm mucus, leech juice, mouse tails, spider legs, beetle eyes, etc. Snape prepared for Ada whatever looked disgusting or was troublesome to handle. Everything was intended to make Ada feel uncomfortable.

Snape would also hint to Ada why she was being punished.

Ada pretended not to understand what Snape was saying. She knew that Snape had no evidence and refused to admit it.

During these few days, Ada was living in dire straits. Compared with Ada, Harry seemed to be living in heaven.

Although Harry's Marauder's Map was confiscated by Professor Lupin and his trip to Hogsmeade was exposed, Hermione reconciled with Harry and Ron because of Buckbeak.

The three of them were in harmony as before and were preparing for Hagrid and Buckbeak's appeal.

On the other hand, Blake was living in paradise. From hiding in a cave to living a comfortable life in the Twilight Cabin, it was a qualitative leap.

Everyone, human or ghost, is showing off, only Ada is "getting beaten". She has it so hard.

Fortunately, Blake's physical condition gradually improved, and he was no longer so weak that he couldn't even speak. After so much suffering, Ada's curiosity was finally satisfied.
