Hogwarts: I Am Such a Model Wizard Chapter 153

 Chapter 153 I have a friend

Hagrid raised the bottle above his head, looked at the ruby-like liquid inside with confusion, and murmured: "Special rat tonic?"

 He only found out today that even pet rats now have tonics, and they are also special.

Hagrid looked at the bottle in his hand again.

He did not doubt Kyle's words, because it took more than half an hour from the beginning to the end of brewing. It took such a long time to produce a bottle, so the quality would definitely be the same.

 He just doesn't understand.

  After all, rats are the most common and cheapest pets. In Diagon Alley, their price is less than half that of toads, and even less expensive than a pack of better owl food.

 In addition, the life span of pet rats is also the shortest, generally only seven years... It is worth mentioning that the little wizard's schooling time at Hogwarts is also seven years.

 While other pets...such as toads or cats can live for more than ten years, owls are even longer.

 Hence, few young wizards would pay attention to those rats, let alone spend money to customize tonics for them.

"Yes." Kyle put the stove and crucible back into the bag, stood up and said, "This is for the Weasley family's pet mouse. It has been for several years. Percy would come every year when school started. Get it from me."

“I just remembered that the mouse became Ron's pet this year, and Percy seemed to have forgotten to tell him about it.”

 “The Weasley rat?”

Hagrid didn't know Percy very well, but he knew Ron, the youngest boy in the Weasley family, who had come with Harry yesterday.

But does he have a pet rat?

Hagrid thought about it carefully and vaguely remembered that Ron's pockets were indeed bulging when he arrived, but the next second, he was not so sure.

 The main reason was that his attention was almost all on Harry at the time, and he didn't pay much attention to Ron. It was normal for him to not remember clearly.

Hagrid returned the bottle to Kyle and asked, "In addition to rats, can you brew tonics for other pets?"

“Of course, any of the four pets specified by Hogwarts are acceptable.”

 “What about the others, such as magical animals and the like?” Hagrid asked again.

"Magical animals are also possible." Kyle thought for a moment and said, "But it depends on which one. Large magical animals like Lu Wei will not work... Of course, they don't need to drink any tonics."

 “Where's the spider?” Hagrid blurted out.

Kyle looked at him and asked thoughtfully: "What kind."

"It's just an Acromantula...well," Hagrid's words suddenly became vague and hesitantly said: "No, I mean, it's just an ordinary spider, but a little bigger."

 “A little bigger?” Kyle raised his eyebrows.

Hagrid nodded firmly, "Yeah, a little bigger!"

Kyle just looked at Hagrid steadily until he started to feel guilty, then he said in a long voice: "No..."

Hagrid just showed a little disappointment on his face when he heard Kyle continue: "But... I can try to study it."

 “What?” Hagrid asked subconsciously before he could react.

“Just try a few more times to see if you can prepare a suitable tonic for them.” Kyle said: “I have done this kind of thing several times before. I can try it if you need it.”

Hagrid reacted with surprise and said: "That's great... I mean if it's not troublesome."

"Although it's not troublesome, I can't guarantee how long it will take to give it to you." Kyle spread his hands and said, "It could be as fast as a month or as slow as a year. It's possible."

"That's okay," Hagrid said nonchalantly: "Do you need my help? If you want any herbs, just tell me and I'll go find them deep in the Forbidden Forest."

 Although most of the rare herbs have been moved into the greenhouse by Professor Sprout, the Forbidden Forest is so big that he can still find them as long as he runs farther. “I have a lot of herbs here, so there's no need to look for them anymore, but…”

Kyle frowned and said, "You have to find me a sample. I have to test the efficacy of the medicine."

Hagrid's eyes wandered and he said, "Um...can't you try using ordinary...ordinary spiders?"

"no!"

Kyle shook his head and said: "Different types, herbal medicines naturally have different effects on them. Sometimes even if they are slightly wrong, tonics can turn into poisons.

Just like belladonna roots...it is a great supplement for Motella rats, but it will definitely kill ordinary rats if they eat it. "

"this…"

Hagrid suddenly hesitated.

  He wanted the Spider Tonic to give to an Acromantula named Aragog.

That was Hagrid's pet fifty years ago. It is now very old, and he has been thinking about how to keep it alive for a few more years.

Spider Tonic is a good idea.

 But the problem is that Acromantula is not an ordinary magical animal, but a dangerous creature of XXXXX level, and it is forbidden to keep it.

Hagrid certainly wouldn't give it to Kyle.

He might be able to convince Aragog, or its descendants, not to harm Kael, but what if someone else found out about it.

 Kyle will definitely be fired by then, just like he was back then. At the same time, Aragog and his tribe in the Forbidden Forest cannot escape the fate of being eliminated.

 Hagrid's expression became more and more determined as he didn't know what he thought of.

 But just when he was about to give up the spider tonic, he heard Kyle say thoughtfully:

“Wait a minute...if it's a poisonous spider, then you can actually just use their venom.”

It has been several times. Hagrid's mood is like riding a roller coaster. It just falls and rises quickly again.

He looked at Kyle and said angrily: "Next time, could you finish the sentence in one go?"

"I don't want to either." Kyle explained: "The main reason is that I don't like spiders very much, and my understanding of them is limited to a book I read a few years ago. It's been too long, and there are many things that need to be thought about carefully. remember."

Hagrid was getting nervous again.

 “Then the venom you just mentioned...”

"This is true." Kyle stared at Hagrid and suddenly said with a smile: "It seems you have a poisonous spider."

"It's not me, I don't." Hagrid's voice suddenly became much louder, and he shook his head repeatedly: "I have a friend who likes poisonous spiders, so I always ask for him."

“Oh~~” Kyle suddenly said: “So he's your friend.”

 “No…that's right.”

Hagrid's ears turned red. He turned his head to the side and quickly changed the subject: "How much spider venom do you need? I'll go right away... Well, I mean to ask him to prepare it for you."

“It's hard to say, it depends on the efficiency.” After thinking for a moment, Kyle said seriously: “But to be on the safe side, the more, the better.”
