Chapter 63 Gretel is also a tsundere
Because there has been a death in Hogwarts for a long time, in order to avoid another attack.
Students in the third year and above of each house have received notice that this year's first trip to Hogsmeade has been temporarily cancelled.
As a result, Gretel's newly restored reputation plummeted again in an instant.
Even if Terry wears Gretel's Merlin Order to show everyone Gretel's contribution.
Still no one wanted to stop talking bad about Gretel.
Of course, Grete, who is in confinement, knows nothing about the outside world.
He treated this confinement entirely as a training in herbalism.
During the usual herbal medicine class, Professor Sprout always prepared the materials needed for the class in advance.
In the dense plant jungle behind the classroom, there are many dangerous plants transplanted by Professor Sprout from all over the world.
Therefore, little wizards are never allowed to enter privately.
It wasn't until this confinement that Gretel, accompanied by the professor, saw a lot of herbal medicines that only existed in textbooks.
Like a giant, fat, black slug's baboon tuber,
The whole body is covered with some shiny bumpy protrusions. When the bumps are squeezed, yellow-green pus will flow out, and the smell is very similar to gasoline.
According to herbal medicine textbooks, its concentrated juice can treat acne, but if undiluted, it can cause pain and boils.
This was the first time he had seen a real thing.
There are also pink swollen pods that bloom as soon as the seeds fall to the ground. Professor Sprout said that third grade students will be asked to study this plant.
There is also a long-eared grass that swishes and shrinks into the soil when it hears a sound. Its juice can be used to prepare a potion to restore hearing.
…
This greenhouse had also been expanded using the Traceless Stretching Charm. After following the professor around for more than half an hour, Gretel didn't even see the edge of the jungle.
"Okay, the plants in front may be a bit dangerous for you, and I have to be careful when handling them. I won't take you forward today.
The area we just walked through will be left to you to deal with during this period. After catching the goblins, remember to shake them unconscious and lock them up in glass bottles.
These dirty little things will produce a lot of them if they are not caught for a few days. They have destroyed dozens of herbs this semester. "
It can be seen that Professor Sprout really has a strong opinion on this group of goblins who destroy plants, and his eyes almost widen when he mentions them.
Of course, as a reward, Gretel can use some herbs to prepare the magic potion he needs.
All the professors knew that Gretel was not a murderer. This was considered a confinement to the outside world, but in fact it was to protect him.
In order to ensure that his character will not be destroyed by rumors.
The confinement can only be lifted after the grievances on him are washed away.
Just like Luna, if it weren't for her detached attitude towards things, if it weren't for her extraordinary optimism.
It has long been destroyed by the bullying day after day.
It seems that in her world, nothing can make her angry, and she can always resolve her sorrows in her own unique way.
She never minded other people's ridicule, even if it was malicious, she never felt annoyed.
When her classmates collected their belongings, she would just silently search for them on her own. If she couldn't find them, she would just smile and never hold grudges or be prejudiced against anyone.
Anyway, Grete couldn't understand it. If it were him, the grass would grow three feet high on the grave of someone who treated him like this.
She never begged others to stop playing pranks on her, nor did she go to the professor to help her find justice.
Maybe that's why others are getting more serious.
It's not that Grete never thought of helping her, but Luna's innate spirituality really put him off.
A person like him, who has so many rifts in his heart, is most afraid of meeting someone as pure as Luna.
Anyway, sometimes, things that have nothing to do with you just close your eyes and let them go.
Besides, in the original world line, without his existence, Luna would still be a fairy-like existence.
Even though he thought so, his conscience would still quietly condemn Gretel at some point.
If Luna didn't give him the feeling of being able to see through people at any time, Gretel would definitely lend a helping hand.
But everything didn't work out, so he still chose to hide far away, not only for himself, but also for the sake of the people who believed in him and joined him.
After lunch, Grete fell asleep next to a sage bush in the greenhouse. I don't know who had built a small bed here.
It looked like it wasn't Professor Sprout's. The bed was a bit small for her.
This special sage bush was transplanted from Asia by Professor Sprout, and it has the effect of promoting sleep and calming the mind.
She plans to cultivate it for a few more years to make the sage bush more prosperous.
When Grete woke up again, there was only a thin layer of gold left in the sky, which reluctantly hit the crystal top of the greenhouse.
Sitting up, Gretel saw a small coffee table next to the bed, with small berries of various colors piled on the coffee table.
All he could make out was the red chaff, a small wild strawberry-like berry used in potions to cure hiccups.
There are also pink and purple raspberries, which are generally used as a catalyst in digestive potions.
There were many other dark purple and sky blue berries that he couldn't even name.
"Eat with confidence, the professor won't say anything. This is also the benefit of us helping to take care of the plants here."
When Gretel was sitting on the bed in a daze, a clear and clear voice came from not far away.
With a crashing sound through the bushes, a tall, handsome boy walked out of the bushes.
"Hello, Cedric Diggory, fourth year Hufflepuff."
Facing the hand handed over by Cedric, Gretel quickly stood up and shook it as a sign of friendship.
"McGrett, second year Ravenclaw."
"I recognize you, a third-level medalist of the Order of Merlin. Yesterday, your roommate hung your medal and gave you a good sigh of relief. He is really a good friend."
Gretel smiled. Indeed, Terry had this kind of character.
This is the reason why Terry and he have the strongest relationship in the entire dormitory.
Who wouldn't like a friend who is full of energy every day and loves to fight against injustices?
"However, I heard your name last school year, Hannah Abbott, the first little girl assigned to Hufflepuff last year.
Last school year, from less than a month after school started until I left school at the end of term, I could hear her compliments on you every day in the common room.
A few days ago, before your friend could defend you, she stopped everyone who had said bad things about you in the common room to clear your name. "
To be honest, Gretel really didn't know. After taking so many classes together, Hannah never mentioned it to him at all.
"Well, it seems I have to find a chance to repay them properly."
Grete shrugged and asked again, "Well, senior, I want to ask you, Terry shouldn't have caused any big trouble, right?"
After all, what happened this time was much more serious than last time. Needless to say, Cedric knew how Gretel had planned for him.
The only thing he was worried about was Terry, a reckless man. If this man's passion got the better of him, he might have to go shopping with others with his wand in order to protect his reputation.
If Gretel hadn't stopped him last time, he would have fought with other colleges long ago.
This time Gretel was locked up, and he didn't know who else could stop Terry.
"That's not true. He just wore medals and handed out bed records to everyone who came and went.
He tried to prove to everyone that you had been with him since returning to the dormitory last night.
He has been posting for a day, and the results are pretty good. At least when I came here, there were not so many people who were sure that you were the murderer. "
A warm current surged through my heart, but what I said was: "This guy knows it's useless to do this."
Cedric didn't say anything, but the smile on his face couldn't be suppressed.
Second update.
Book friends, please take good care of your health. Good night.
