"Little Green, I said you always have talent, no matter what."
At the door of Greenhouse, senior Bruce hummed a pleasant tune and seemed to be talking to himself.
There are so many legends about this senior, Sean felt that it was understandable behavior for him to put Itch Powder on Lockhart while hiding it from everyone.
The question is, how did senior Bruce find out that Professor Lockhart was a bastard?
Before he was exposed, the professors still had some respect for him.
Just like now, Professor Sprout did not forcefully drive away Lockhart. However, after Bruce came in for a while, the warm smile on her face did not stop.
Now she looked into Sean's eyes and said:
"We are going to repot Mandrake today. Can anyone tell me what characteristics Mandrake has?"
The little wizards who have just returned from vacation have empty heads. At this time, the convention on Herbology comes into play - when you can't answer, it doesn't matter, just see if there is a quiet Sean·Green behind you.
"Mandrake, also called Mandrake Root, is a powerful recovery agent.
Used to restore Transfiguration ed people or people under a spell to their original state."
Sean replied.
"Great answer, right? Let's give Mr. Green some applause. He already looks a bit like I did when I was at Hogwarts."
Lockhart grabbed the words, he was like a narcissistic peacock, his tail was open all the time.
This time, he did not receive the applause he imagined.
"Excuse me, do you mean Sean·Green?"
Michael couldn't help but grin, and then said.
The little wizards outside the field had more or less strange expressions. Slytherin didn't care much about Lockhart, but at this moment they were already looking at him with disdain.
Malfoy even laughed out loud.
Does this guy know what he's talking about?
Not even his father dares to disparage this Green now.
"Of course, you're a great little wizard, right? Maybe he can catch up with me."
Lockhart continued in a smooth tone, casting an encouraging look at Sean.
"It turns out that you are a rising star that Headmaster Dumbledore personally admitted. Professor, we still underestimated you."
Michael boasted, and he poked Terry next to him.
Terry is counting the leaves of Mandrake, counting the data non-stop, and now it is more like giving a confused response:
"Oh, according to this - you are much more powerful than Headmaster Dumbledore when you were young."
Lockhart was so excited. In this school, the only thing he couldn't figure out and didn't dare to figure out was the principal.
"If we were all stuck in a phone booth with a Werewolf, probably Dumbledore wouldn't be able to do better than me. Want to know the details of that thrilling story? I wrote it all in the book.
Okay, kids, does anyone remember? It was <Wanderings with Werewolves>.
Let me tell you a little secret in advance, it will be of great use to read some heroic books written by heroic wizards."
He explained in a leisurely manner that Ravenclaw people were no longer convinced.
Even the witches who had just expressed their admiration showed complicated expressions and stopped looking at him.
Speaking of which, Mr. Green and Lockhart seem to have many similarities.
Equally talented and knowledgeable, he published his own books.
But the story of Mr. Green is just around the corner, and the little wizards can no longer imagine that there will be anyone better.
Especially being recognized by Headmaster Dumbledore.
Lockhart encountered the first cold reception in Hogwarts. Ravenclaw people didn't buy it, and Slytherin people even sneered in response.
Only then did Lockhart notice the specialness of this little wizard.
"Oh, I mean - oh oh oh -"
He suddenly felt itchy all over and had no energy to explain at all, so he could only utter some meaningless syllables.
Then Greenhouse, Greenhouse ran out like a tap dance. Outside, Bruce senior seemed to have not left yet:
"Oh, professor, you have encountered Itchvine. Do you know this plant?"
"Of course, of course I know - if I wasn't attacked by it, I would only need two minutes to subdue it -"
Lockhart took a while to say a few words.
Inside Greenhouse, all the little witches widened their eyes and fell silent. Some of the little witches who had once believed in Lockhart even turned red and looked in disbelief.
"It's a pity, otherwise I think you must have a way to deal with it."
Bruce said "anxiously".
"That goes without saying, but now--"
"I'm here to help you. It's always been my dream to get close to a big shot like you--"
"Good boy - what are you throwing at me?"
"You should know that this is the powder that relieves the effect of Itchvine."
"But why am I so itchy?"
"It's just itchy, it means it's working -"
Greenhouse's door was pushed open by Professor Sprout. Even for a person like Lockhart, the professor tried his best to help him save face.
"Very good answer, plus ten points for Ravenclaw."
Professor Sprout said,
"Mandrake is an important component of most antidotes. But it is also dangerous. Can anyone tell me why?"
After Professor Lockhart is gone, Herbology becomes completely normal.
Sean pulled out a very ugly baby from the soil with ease. Leaves were growing on its head. Its skin was light green with Scabbers dots on it. The little guy was obviously shouting at the top of his lungs.
Michael and several people were holding pots and crowded around Sean. Elsewhere, a dark red plant with spikes always stretched out its tentacles to the little wizards, scaring them so much that they always screamed.
"The compost is in the bag over there--look out for Venomous Tentacula, it's teething."
Professor Sprout also reminded.
[You completely processed a Mandrake plant according to the standard of a skilled expert, proficiency +10]
Each plant has slightly different characteristics. Sean is always passionate about these magical plants, and his processing speed is also the fastest.
By the time class was over, the little wizards were all sweating profusely, their backs and backs ached, and their bodies were covered with mud. They walked back to the castle tiredly and took a shower, and then Ravenclaw students hurried to Transfiguration Class.
When passing by the door of Greenhouse, Professor Lockhart was already breaking out in a cold sweat. He forced himself to stand there with a smile:
"Oh, children, after spending a lot of energy, I subdued Itchvine. How are you doing in Greenhouse? After Itchvine was dealt with by me."
Some Ravenclaw little witches looked up at him and hurried on their way.
He didn't feel embarrassed at all, but loudly promoted Itchvine's solution.
"That's a fake plant, right?"
Sean said.
"Of course it's fake, but someone needs to believe it's real or it would be too embarrassing.
Speaking of this, Itchvine is not the only fake one."
Bruce blinked.
