Harry Potter and the Attack of the Squibs

Chapter 40 Royal Botanic Gardens

"Theoretically speaking, the magical power and special forms of all magic herbs are special cases that adapt to the environment, and classification should be a more universal thing. One of the feasible criteria is blood relationship, and the most convenient characteristic is flowers, because this part is very Change less to adapt to circumstances.”

Professor Sputraw nodded: "I have heard this statement. A seventh-grade Muggle student once told me, but my question is..."

"Ah! Here."

Professor Sputraw saw the last point on the parchment: "But such a classification is meaningless. First of all, it goes against common sense for wizards. Secondly, it is not practical, because magic has its own laws, which are different from ordinary plants. . In view of this, liquid grass can be classified in any classification recognized by wizards, including magic herbs, beneficial plants, or magic plants, medicinal herbs, and even magic potion raw material plant genera. Of course, plants classified by flower characteristics, angiosperms, and herbs Plants are also acceptable, the key is which one the wizard is willing to accept.”

Professor Sputraw smiled: "I thought you would propose a new classification method that completely negates the efforts of all wizards..."

Lu Ke smiled helplessly: "Plant classification itself is a very subtle science. Although I think the classification methods used by Muggles are very mature and reasonable, it is obvious that wizards do not think so."

Professor Sputraw nodded: "Because wizards rarely force others to accept their own opinions, I hope you can do the same, Lu Ke."

Lu Ke shook his head: "Science is a description of reality. It is not a bad thing to accept a description that is closer to reality. Of course, for the magical world, most of the current descriptions are not close to reality."

Professor Sputraw sighed helplessly: "So you still think that people should accept a correct view."

Lu Ke smiled: "If it is correct, then it doesn't matter, and usually there is not only one correct statement."

Professor Sputraw nodded: "When people force others to be right, that's the beginning of disaster. Although you won't like it, this is the secret of Hufflepuff."

Lu Ke shook his head and said nothing more.

At this time, you can see that Lu Ke is a true Slytherin.

He doesn't care about the existing rules. Confidence is akin to arrogance. This is Slytherin. Even if Lu Ke's confidence is supported by science, in the world of magic, this can also be regarded as a kind of arrogance.

"So did I pass my paper?"

Professor Sputraw smiled: "Of course, I give you full marks, um, plus five points for Slytherin."

"Thank you, Professor Sputraw."

"So, do you have any ideas about the construction of the greenhouse now?"

Lu Ke smiled. This was what he suddenly thought of at the end of writing this paper.

"In fact, we can re-divide the four greenhouses according to the living conditions of the potions. The main criteria are rainfall and temperature."

Because the difference between greenhouses is these two, building a nearly enclosed space like a greenhouse is also to obtain specific and controllable temperature and humidity.

"Then inside each greenhouse, they are divided according to the degree of preciousness and danger, and distributed from the outside to the inside. Such a greenhouse may not meet anyone's standards, but it is definitely the most suitable for taking care of magic potions."

He always thought that when the Royal Society was still there, the exchanges between the wizarding world and Muggles should be more frequent. At that time, the Royal Botanic Garden used this idea to divide greenhouses into one greenhouse for tropical plants and one greenhouse for desert plants.

Professor Sputrao let out a long breath: "Your choice was too difficult and required too much work, so that I never thought of the plan from the beginning..."

Lu Ke sighed helplessly: "You decide what to do, Professor Sputraw, no matter what, I will help you."

Professor Sputraw sighed longly: "I want to think about it carefully. Thank you Lu Ke."

Lu Ke shook his head: "I didn't do anything."

After saying goodbye to Professor Sputraw, Lu Ke returned to the castle hall for dinner. There was a joyful atmosphere everywhere: it was the weekend.

There will be no classes for two consecutive days after Friday. On Saturday and Sunday, every student can wander around the castle as he pleases.

Johanna seemed to have a plan. She didn't even ask Lu Ke why he was left behind by Professor Sputraw.

"You said that when we can move freely in the castle..." Johanna's eyes were almost shining, "we can go treasure hunting!"

Lu Ke sighed helplessly: "Yes, yes, I will take you there tomorrow morning, but what do you want?"

Johanna smiled and shook her head: "Nothing matters, the important thing is to hunt for treasure!"

Lu Ke could only nod: "Okay, go tomorrow."

Then he finished his meal and read a book in the Slytherin common room.

The two books that Snape lent out were actually not of much value. Lu Ke himself was not interested in dark magical plants. What he was reading now was a history of Hogwarts.

This is a history book about the early days of Hogwarts. There are many records in it about the construction of Hogwarts by the four founders. Others are relatively brief. There are even many vacancies in the names of the previous principals. However, there is a complete record of the major events that occurred.

Until two hundred years ago.

Because this book was written at that time.

Lu Ke took a look and found that during this period, the most recorded part of the school history was about whether to stop recruiting young wizards born in Muggle families.

This controversy began with the break between Slytherin and the other three founders and continued for thousands of years.

Apart from this, Hogwarts has never faced any threat for eight hundred years.

Although there are records in a school history, most of them are about the expulsion of a dark wizard among the students. It is obvious that the principals are firmly in control of the situation.

It can be seen from this that the wizarding world is such a leisurely and leisurely place.

Lu Ke finally put down the book and went to bed.

Wizards don't like history.

Lu Ke woke up very early the next morning.

This time he did not go out after breakfast, but stayed in the hall to write a paper on the history of magic. After reading a history of Hogwarts, he had a basic judgment on the history of wizards and was no longer afraid of papers. error.

After finishing writing, it was almost eight o'clock, and Lu Ke felt that the twins and Johanna should get up soon.

So he took out the Marauder's Map.
