Let's play a little game!"
Snape wasn't that easy to control.
He quickly proposed a very difficult challenge for Cedric:
"When making potions, if the number of Hufflepuffs they get wrong does not exceed 1, I will give you +5 points. If you fail, I will deduct 1 point from you."
"do you dare?"
It was supposed to be a break between classes.
The Hufflepuffs had all walked out of Potions class to take a breather.
But after hearing Cedric talking to Snape, everyone gradually returned to the classroom.
Hear Snape's offer.
Everyone took a deep breath.
You must know that in the first class just now, a total of twelve of them failed, which means the success rate is only about half.
No more than 1 person may fail.
That is almost equivalent to all members being qualified.
The quota given was just to take the unexpected into account.
If it's a test of Cedric himself, that's okay.
After all, even Professor Snape admitted that Cedric knew it during these terms and was willing to spend 2 points to buy him a quiet class.
This is enough to explain everything.
This time it is to test how he can help everyone improve their performance.
They have confidence in Cedric, but they have no confidence in themselves!
"This is great!"
Beyond everyone's expectations.
Cedric had almost no hesitation and quickly agreed:
"But I have a supplementary condition. If I successfully improve the potion, then I will be given extra points!"
He also worked hard for points.
It's time for the Room of Requirement to come in handy, and by the way, the research on potion to solve Squibs has officially begun.
"certainly!"
After Snape agreed, the two quickly reached an agreement.
Seeing them reach an agreement, the other Hufflepuffs panicked!
"Cedric, we, we have no confidence!"
"That's right. What if points are deducted?"
"I can't do it. I'm shaking when making a potion I'll never be able to do them nicelyl!"
Facing the worried classmates, Cedric stood up directly.
He put the wand against his throat, and soon his amplified voice echoed in the underground classroom:
"Members, please don't worry. Since this is the bet I agreed to, I will be responsible for all the points. I will be responsible for all the points deducted!"
Listen, Cedric takes all the responsibility.
Many people's worries were put aside, and the crowd gradually became quiet.
"Secondly, I believe in everyone!"
"We are all the best if you can come to Hogwarts. If you can be admitted to Hogwarts, then you must not underestimate your abilities."
Cedric walked back and forth in front of the Hufflepuffs, his serious eyes scanning every student who looked at him.
"Just keep working hard."
"I believe that everyone can work together to complete this great challenge!"
Be inspired by him.
Everyone looked at each other, with a little joy on their faces.
No one wants to prove themselves.
No one wants to admit that they just can't do it.
No one doesn't want to make a big comeback, then turn around and say to his previous self, it turns out that's all it is!
Gradually some people in the crowd nodded, beginning to identify with Cedric.
The eyes of the Ravenclaws on the side were gleaming. In their eyes, Cedric in the crowd seemed to be glowing!
Learn well and have the courage to take responsibility.
Still tall and handsome!
Sure enough, the Sorting Hat was right!
There was loud applause that was incompatible with the dark basement.
"Go for it, Cedric, we've got your back!"
"Yes, we will succeed eventually!"
"It's so beautiful. If you read it a hundred times, the meaning will naturally emerge. How did Cedric come up with such philosophical words?"
In front of Snape's eyes.
Cedric stood radiantly among his classmates, with such an attitude that even he might be confused now.
But he spoke again.
He also brought this glory to himself.
"at last!"
Cedric turned to face Snape.
"This is the professor's test for me!"
"Reviewing the past will help you learn something new. Read it a hundred times and you will see its meaning."
"The professor hopes that I will not forget the basics, so I also want to use everyone to help me consolidate the basics, so that I can not aim too high and master potions thoroughly!"
"I will complete the challenge well."
"Thank you, Professor Snape!"
He looked at Cedric, who was leaning forward slightly, and the eyes that followed his movements and were cast on him.
Snape was unusually confused.
The fingers behind his back rose and fell in turn, and he squeezed his wand hard.
Under everyone's gaze.
Snape responded to Cedric's gratitude with an undetectable slight bow.
Warm applause sounded again.
The coldness in the basement has been diluted a lot, and everyone is very enthusiastic.
The second potions lesson continued.
Cedric didn't do anything in class.
After Snape finished his lecture, he came to the Hufflepuffs and began to answer questions.
Seeing Ravenclaw standing still, he also warmly invited him.
soon.
Almost the entire class stayed, with Cedric at the center, continuing to discuss the contents of the Potions class.
Snape stood at the door of the classroom and looked back.
Looking at Cedric who looked like the sun, he not only began to recall his school days.
What were you doing at that time?
By the way, competing with James Potter, they are mortal enemies and are incompatible with each other. He even insulted his beloved, causing regrets in his life.
No one taught me at that time.
What is right and what is wrong!
Snape felt sour in his heart.
At that time, it would be great if I could meet a friend like Cedric!
