There Is Only One Truth
"What is this thing?"
Lee Jordan covered his mouth and nose with his hand, looked at the yellow-green liquid splattered on the table, and asked his friend next to him.
"Undiluted Bubotuber Pus."
Albert twitched his nose and squinted, saying, "No wonder the Honesty Detector couldn't detect it. It's really cunning. If we're not careful, we could be in big trouble."
"Who did you offend?" Shanna was shocked. She had just been watching Albert open the package. "Someone actually sent you this kind of thing. If you had been sprayed with it, I don't know what would have happened."
Other students who witnessed this scene began to whisper among themselves. Those who were unaware of the situation also gathered around out of curiosity, asking the others what had happened.
"Who do you think did it?" George asked.
George also found it hard to understand who was planning to cause trouble for Albert, since he shouldn't have many enemies.
"Slytherin student," Albert said casually, glancing at the new quest on his Task Panel. There weren't many suspects who would send Albert something like this; regardless of whether it was someone from Slytherin or not, it was safe to pin the blame on them.
Aside from the Slytherin students, Professor Quirrell is the only one who seems suspicious.
Albert kept asking Professor Quirrell questions, so Professor Quirrell finally couldn't stand it anymore and sent him this thing as a warning.
Of course, it could also be one of the upperclassmen in Slytherin who he had wronged. As for the lowerclassmen, the possibility is low. It would be difficult for them to obtain undiluted Bubotuber Pus unless his family was willing to help, but would their family be willing to help? The possibility is actually very small.
"A Slytherin student?"
Suddenly, the entire Common Room became noisy.
"There's still quite a bit left in the package. Now I can try to make a medicine to get rid of acne using this undiluted Bubotuber Pus." Albert waved his wand and collected the remaining pus from the Bubotuber in the package.
"Aren't you angry at all?" Angelina found it incredible; that vicious package had almost disfigured Albert.
"Getting angry just lets the other party get what they want," Albert said, squinting his eyes.
Everyone was stunned. What kind of talk was this? What did it mean to say that getting angry would make the other person get what they wanted?
"Actually, that person did me a big favor. I've been wondering where to get undiluted Bubotuber Pus, and now I don't have to worry about where to get the raw materials," Albert said, shaking the undiluted Bubotuber Pus in the glass bottle.
"Is it the Special Ointment you mentioned last time?" Fred asked excitedly. He remembered Albert mentioning it before, and if it succeeded, it would definitely be a hot-selling product.
In Albert's words: Girls love beauty, how could they tolerate having pimples on their faces?
"If the guy who sent you this finds out, he'll probably be furious!" George said gleefully, noticing Albert's narrowed eyes, sensing that someone was in trouble.
He didn't believe Albert couldn't guess who sent it. Even if he couldn't guess right away, he probably already had a suspect. Besides, this guy could do Divination, so it was impossible for him not to find a suspect.
Several girls were very interested in what Albert was saying. Acne had always bothered these beauty-conscious girls, and they said that if Albert could create an effective acne-removing ointment, they should let him know as soon as possible.
Girls never skimp on beauty.
Back in their dorm, the Twins and Lee Jordan were still discussing the matter.
Then they saw Albert take Divination crystal ball out of his suitcase.
The three of them stopped talking and watched Albert fiddling with the crystal ball. Soon, the white mist inside the crystal ball began to spin rapidly.
They all felt that they vaguely saw something blurry.
"What did you see?" George finally couldn't help but ask.
"Suspect." Albert's smile widened.
"Who?" the three asked in unison.
"Professor Quirrell."
"Professor Quirrell?"
All three were stunned, unable to understand why Professor Quirrell would send Albert something like this.
"But you shouldn't have..." Fred was interrupted before he could finish speaking.
"Could it be because you kept asking Quirrell questions, so..."
"So Professor Quirrell finally got driven crazy by you and sent you this thing as revenge?"
"Professor Quirrell doesn't seem like the type to do this kind of thing."
"You know Professor Quirrell very well?"
After Albert's question, the others fell silent. Did they know Professor Quirrell? No, they didn't.
What are you planning to do?
"No rush, I have a whole bunch of ways to deal with him slowly." Albert's face revealed a malicious smile. Of course, ordinary methods cannot be used to deal with Quirrell.
"Quirrell probably doesn't know you already know he sent the package!" Lee Jordan exclaimed.
"He definitely wouldn't know." Albert took a book from the bookshelf and began reading about how to use undiluted Bubotuber Pus. He figured his sister probably needed it too, and Isobel probably did as well, even though Albert hadn't seen any pimples on her face. Maybe she already knew how to make the Potions herself.
Albert took out his Communication Bookmark and sent a message to the other party. The other party replied quickly, saying that they found it in a book and gave Albert the recipe directly.
Under Isobel's guidance, Albert brewed Potions directly in the Room of Requirement and discovered that the resulting substance resembled a yellow paste, which could effectively eliminate blackheads when applied to the face.
Yes, you apply it to your face, wait for it to solidify, then peel it off to remove the blackheads. After that Essence of Dittany to that area to eliminate any possible scars.
Well, after listening to Isobel's explanation, Albert was stunned. He felt that he had seen something similar before.
Clearly, what Isobel taught him wasn't the Pimple Potion Albert wanted to create, but he still found it very interesting; even blackheads couldn't stop girls from pursuing beauty.
Albert told Isobel about the Pimple Potion he was going to create, and the Ravenclaw genius actually showed great interest in what Albert had proposed and offered to help Albert with the research.
In just three days, the two successfully developed Pimple Potion, a yellow, viscous ointment that could eliminate red and swollen pimples on the face within a few hours when applied.
Not only Isobel, but most of the girls were overjoyed when they found out.
