Chapter 73 What Taste
Jiang Li was kicked out by Snape, who could no longer tolerate him, and returned to his room before the effect of the Polyjuice Potion wore off.
Jiang Li was in a good mood when he thought about getting the materials for the crown.
When the get out of class was over the next day, Jiang Li saw a female student holding a pile of books and picking up the books on the ground.
She walked over, picked up the book and put it in the girl's hand.
Looking at her tied-up hair, Jiang Li praised: "Elena, you look much better this way than before."
Elena looked up in surprise and asked, "Professor, do you remember who I am?"
"Of course, you are unique, aren't you recognizable at first sight?"
Jiang Li took off the strands of hair stuck to her cheeks and praised her sincerely.
Erin's cheeks instantly turned red.
During the holidays, she wanted to make some changes to herself, so she cut off her thick bangs and cut her hair much shorter. After returning to school, even her best friend didn't recognize her at first sight. She didn't expect that Jiang Li would recognize her at first sight.
Obviously, the two of them met only a few times.
She tucked the hair behind her ears and said shyly, "I want to try to make some changes."
"It's a very good change, very suitable for you." Jiang Li looked at Elena and said seriously, "You are shining like a gem that has been dusted off."
Hearing this, Elena's cheeks turned even redder. She held the book to cover her hot cheeks, revealing a pair of beautiful eyes, staring at Jiang Li and said, "The professor is also very handsome."
Sincere praise always makes people happy. Jiang Li took half of the books from her hand and said naturally, "Let me help you with them. Where should you put these books?"
"These books must be returned to Madam Pince." Elena said softly, but her eyes followed Jiang Li closely.
"That's great. I want to go there too. Let's go together."
Jiang Li tucked the book under his armpit, looked at Elena and asked, "Do you like reading? A lot of the content on it is not in the textbook."
Elena blushed and nodded, and said softly: "I like alchemy, but it's a little complicated."
"I also know alchemy. If you have any questions, you can ask me. Maybe I can answer them for you." Jiang Li said gently.
Hearing this, Elena's eyes lit up, and she immediately pulled out a notebook from her arms and asked all the questions she had written down before.
Jiang Li has always been very patient with studious children and answered their questions one by one.
Elena looked at Jiang Li with great admiration.
She had talked to the alchemy professor before, but his answers were not as good as Jiang Li's.
Jiang Li answered every question in a simple and clear manner, and was able to make even the obscure and difficult questions understandable.
Of course, the main reason is that Elena is really talented in this area, otherwise she wouldn’t understand.
After arriving at the library, Jiang Li slipped directly into the restricted books area.
Elena was a step slow and didn't catch up. She took down a book with some disappointment and sat at the long table to read it.
Jiang Li has always been curious about why the wizard's apparition and the house-elf's teleportation are different.
The house-elf's teleportation seems to be at a higher level. It can ignore all kinds of restrictions and can teleport within the anti-displacement formation.
This talent seemed to exist in the blood, just like the racial talent of house-elves.
It's really enviable.
Jiang Li planned to experiment with Mia, maybe she could also teleport like Mia.
She felt that her perception of the other world was becoming weaker and weaker, perhaps it was a correction of this world.
At night, Jiang Li guessed that the residual soul in the Horcrux might have been transferred to the container he made, so he went directly to the Room of Requirement.
As soon as she walked nearby, she felt several waves hovering around the Room of Requirement.
"Are you sure there's a Room of Requirement here? Aren't those just rumors?"
"I'm sure, Sirius, I was in there last time, there's even a Quidditch pitch there."
"Really? The Room of Requirement is a Quidditch arena?"
"Really! I've already been in there!"
In order to confirm his idea, James directly lifted up his invisibility cloak, and then he saw Jiang Li standing in front of him with a faint smile.
"Teach...Professor."
James was so scared that he almost bit his tongue.
Jiang Li crossed his arms in front of his chest, tilted his head and looked behind James and said, "Aren't you three going to come out?"
Hearing this, James covered up loudly: "Aren't there only two of us here? Where are the other three people?"
Seeing that he was still pretending to be stupid, Jiang Li lightly tapped his finger, and a gust of wind blew, and the invisible cloak was immediately lifted up, revealing the faces of the other three people, who stood beside them awkwardly.
"How did you find us?" Sirius asked Jiang Li curiously.
Hearing this, Jiang Li smiled faintly and said, "Because I can smell the scent on you."
"Taste? What does it taste like?"
James sniffed his clothes.
He realized that it was the charming fragrance of youth.
“Guess what it tastes like.”
Jiang Li looked at the four people with a smile and said, "Do you plan to go back now, or just deduct points from the school."
The four of them stood up straight and ran away together.
Watching the four of them disappear into the night, Jiang Li curled his lips into a smile and looked to the other side of the corridor.
"Okay, they've gone far away, you don't have to hide anymore."
Snape appeared in the corridor.
He looked at Jiang Li and said, "You should just deduct the school points from these four people."
"Forget it, Minerva already has a headache, their house's score counter is almost empty."
Jiang Li stood in front of the House of Requests, and the wall turned into a door.
The two went straight into the Room of Requirement.
Ten minutes later, the four little lions sneaked over again and started searching nearby.
"Are you sure Professor Malfoy has left? I didn't see her just now." Lupin said worriedly.
If I get caught by Professor Malfoy again, I will definitely lose points.
"She must have left." James said with great certainty, "She doesn't know what's here, so how could she stay here all the time?"
"Okay, hurry up and find the Room of Requirement," Sirius urged.
The four people immediately began searching the surroundings.
In-house on request.
As soon as he came in, Jiang Li felt a strong fluctuation.
A black gas was running out of the crystal ball thrown on the garbage, and the garbage mountain rolled down.
Snape subconsciously stood in front of her.
"It's okay. He's been left behind."
Jiang Li patted his shoulder, walked over and picked up the glass ball. There was a black gas running around inside and a terrifying roar could be heard faintly. A complex magic circle pattern immediately appeared on the crystal ball, imprisoning the black gas inside.
Even through a layer of magic circle, one can still feel the evil aura.
"I'll get it."
Snape took the glass ball from her hand with a serious look.
He knew Voldemort's methods too well. The other party would never put his soul on a crown casually.
Seeing Snape pursed his lips tightly, and in a state of readiness, Jiang Li explained:
"It's already trapped inside. I carved a magic circle on it to imprison the soul. It can't get out without my permission. If you don't believe me, you can throw this ball to the ground and it won't break."
