Chapter 2716 The Land of Firebirds (24)

Astonia Greengrass has a sister named Daphne Greengrass. Although she is also very beautiful, unlike her quiet sister who loves to sing, she is a member of Slytherin's internal dueling club and is not influenced by Slytherin.

Raghorn's invitation.

"Dean~" Pomona looked up and found that freshman Ross Zeller had come to her office.

"Here you go." She said sweetly and handed a box to Pomona.

"What is this?" Pomona asked.

"Your Christmas present," Ross Zeller said.

"You gave it to me?" Pomona asked.

"No, we all gave it to you together," Ross said.

Pomona thought of her pearl hairpin, which was given to her by her students using pearls they had raised for seven years.

Not all of them are perfectly round, but when made into hairpins they look just like perfectly round pearls.

So Pomona took the gift box...

"Stop!"

Just when her hand was about to touch the gift box, Snape appeared.

His expression was serious, and he looked at Roszeller with such ferocious eyes that he almost made her cry.

"What's wrong?" Pomona said impatiently.

"You forgot the necklace for Dumbledore." Snape said at a very fast speed, and then looked at Ross Zeller and "put the thing down."

The confused freshman put down the gift box and ran out of Pomona's office quickly.

Pomona saw him take out his wand from his sleeve and point it at the gift box with a "flaming" wand.

She really had nothing to say.

After the gift box was burned to ashes, a Golden Snitch bracelet appeared on the table.

It is composed of three parts. The wings of the Golden Snitch are disassembled and look like expanded bird wings. The round body of the Golden Snitch is a small box that can be opened, which can be placed... uh...

Snape let the bracelet float and examined it carefully.

"This can be used as an amulet. Do you have dragon blood?"

"What?"

"I said, this bracelet can be used as an amulet. Do you have dragon blood?" He actually repeated it patiently.

Only then did she realize what could be put in the golden snitch box on the bracelet.

"Dragon blood is so expensive now." She complained.

"I have some over there." He said in a tone that was obviously smug but pretended it was no big deal.

"Do you have a way to buy it?" Pomona said in a cooperative tone of admiration.

The old bat laughed, and Pomona couldn't help but roll his eyes secretly.

"And it's the hard work of a dragon. It's better than what's on the market."

The dragon's heart blood can only be taken once, when the dragon's heart is pierced, it is spurted out. Although the method is cruel, as Snape said, it is indeed more powerful than ordinary dragon blood.

"Why don't you speak?" Severus asked.

"I'm thinking about Newt Scamander," Pomona said, his expression quickly changing.

"He once helped Dumbledore retrieve the 'blood oath' he had with Grindelwald, and it looks like jewelry." She said remedially.

Snape said nothing.

"How is Albus doing now?" Pomona asked.

He picked up the file he had just read on her desk.

"What's this?"

"Slughorn's menu, he needs these dishes for the Slug Club's Christmas party." Pomona sighed. "He pays for it himself."

"Since he has to pay, why are you sighing?" Severus asked.

"I've never cooked dragon eggs," Pomona said.

Severus was shocked.

"This kind of food is very popular among middle-aged and older people," Pomona said, but she doubted that teenagers would eat it.

"How about he hire his own cook?" Severus said.

"This is against the rules. What if something goes wrong? He invited almost all the senior students."

"Not everyone," Severus said with a stiff face.

"I know that Daphne Greengrass was not invited, but she still became Zabini's dance partner." She frowned, feeling extremely distressed. "Why did the old slug invite Astonia but not Astonia?"

Daphne?”

He didn't speak.

If Severus hadn't been so anxious to "get ahead", he might have become a member of the Slug Club, but at that time he had already been invited by Lucius Malfoy to join the Death Eaters' club.

Dean Thomas is only mediocre in the sixth grade, while Ginny is the best girl in the next grade. If they are in the same grade, they are not in the same "food chain" at all.

After not attending Herbology class, Dean had more time to practice Potions and Defense Against the Dark Arts, but Harry invited him to join the Quidditch team to replace Katie's vacated Chaser position.

This made many Gryffindors dissatisfied with Harry.

The goalkeeper is still "excusable". Most people still think that the seeker is the coolest position, and they don't realize that the playing style of other college teams has changed.

Except for Ron and Mike Lagan, no one is competing for the goalkeeper position. There are many people who can be the chasers. Why Dean Thomas?

"What is this?" Severus asked.

"Jam pie." Pomona looked at the pie that had only eaten one piece on the table. "Take it if you want to eat it."

After saying that, she stood up and picked up the traveling cloak on the shelf.

"where did you go?"

"Greenhouse." Pomona said as she turned over her cloak and replaced it with the invisible side.

"It's snowing outside," Severus said lazily.

"I know! Even the people in the Potions Club haven't been going to the Potions Club much lately, so today is the best time to take action."

"What action?"

"Catch the thief!" she said angrily, "I want to catch the guy who stole my potted plant."

"You started throwing things away after Slughorn came back?" Severus asked.

Pomona didn't answer.

"Then he suddenly had money and could throw extravagant parties," he continued.

"He's the Potions Master," Pomona said.

"But he didn't have time to take anything with him when he ran away." Severus said, "I heard that he even went to hide in a Muggle house."

"I don't want to continue talking!" Pomona said angrily.

"Why?" Severus asked, and then, without waiting for her answer, he said to himself, "Patricia Linnaeus again?"

She was so anxious that she didn't know what to say.

"Everyone thinks she is, but you think she is not." Severus said tiredly.

"What is it?" Pomona asked.

"Don't be so stubborn." He said in a low voice, which sounded like a warning.

Snape also liked to warn people when he was a child, but he had not yet changed his voice at that time, so Gorgon and Lily could completely ignore him.

"How are you going to explain your presence here to others?" Pomona asked trying to remain calm. "You are no longer the Potions Master."

"What do you want?" he said coldly.

She smelled the sour and sweet smell of jam tarts in the room, and she knew they were delicious just from the smell.

However, when she saw the former Potions Master who was completely covered in black, Pomona would have wanted to use poison if it weren't for the fear that the rats would die after eating the poisoned pies, and the smell of the rotting corpse would make the guests coming from afar uncomfortable.

It's not a trap to catch mice.

"Can you tell me why Malfoy made birdie?" Pomona asked.

He was silent.

"One of my students saw it in the corridor on the seventh floor. Don't worry, he told me without telling anyone," Pomona said.

Even though he was a freshman, James Tucker had heard of Malfoy's "famous name", and he was afraid that he would be like Roger Malone, and the result would be worse.

"Still don't want to talk?" Pomona asked.
