Faced with Hermione's blunt question, Justin Finch-Fletchley froze for a moment. "Our homework? It's all pretty standard... like identifying 'magical properties,' then reviewing the entire instruction process."
"What about copying lines?" Ron suddenly asked, as though he were hoping for something.
"Not this time." Justin Finch-Fletchley shook his head. "We all did quite well today. Everyone brewed a Calming Draught."
"How should I put it? With Wizet there, if we still performed badly, I feel like Professor Snape would have punished us... by making us scoop out frog brains."
Scooping out frog brains was already the harshest, most terrifying punishment he could imagine.
"True..." Ron sighed, the disappointment in his voice nearly impossible to hide.
Justin Finch-Fletchley still took out his notebook. "Actually, I've already finished the homework..."
"You've finished it already?" Ron pointed at the notebook. "Is that it?"
"Yeah!" Justin Finch-Fletchley nodded. "My notes should be the most comprehensive! I wrote down every remedy we heard!"
"Handing in the homework is even easier! I just need to organize what's in the notes and copy it onto parchment." He opened the notebook. "You can have a look..."
"Thanks! Let me see!" Hermione snatched the notebook from Justin Finch-Fletchley before anyone else could.
Catching the blur that flashed before his eyes, Harry's eyelid twitched. It was the first time he had realized Hermione's hands could move so incredibly fast.
If she used that speed to catch the Golden Snitch, he might have another formidable rival.
He knew he should not be dwelling on that. What mattered now was looking through Justin Finch-Fletchley's notes and finding out what sort of notes students took when Wizet was in Potions Class.
