The sickly, iron-fisted beauty in Harry Potter

Could it be the heart, or the brain?

If a vital organ is lost in an instant, even spells and potions from the magical world cannot bring it back.

Otherwise, Mad-Eye Moody wouldn't be an Auror missing an eye and a leg, covered in wounds. (The example here has been replaced by Moody, not Peter Pettigrew)

"Anyway, let's treat her current condition first. I need a bottle of blood-replenishing medicine because the ones I ordered haven't arrived yet since school just started."

"I'll go and cook it now, and I'll be back in about an hour."

An hour later, Snape returned with the blood-replenishing potion, which was still warm from boiling, and came to Dolly's side with Madam Pomfrey.

Seeing the blood-replenishing medicine, Dolly breathed a sigh of relief; her plan was finally complete.

Blood-replenishing medicine itself isn't particularly precious, but neither Dolly nor Hermione have the ability to make it, and buying it from Diagon Alley isn't practical.

Most importantly, Dolly needs a legitimate reason to use the blood-replenishing medicine.

Now everything is finally on track. With Hermione's help, Dolly drank the potion and soon felt warm all over, and her face even turned a little rosy.

This is the magical effect of the potion. In the original story, after Arthur was bitten by a poisonous snake, he even relied on taking a blood-replenishing potion once an hour to forcibly resist the blood-clotting effect of the snake venom, which shows its power.

But Dolly was still a little worried. She tentatively asked Mrs. Pomfrey, "What is the mechanism of action of the blood tonic? Will it shorten the lifespan of the cells in my body?"

62. Successfully passed the second level.

Mrs. Pomfrey, who had just been smiling, suddenly stiffened her expression.

Then, under Dolly's questioning gaze, she murmured, "Cells, what are those?"

"Uh……"

This moment left Dolly a little bewildered.

She quickly said, "Didn't you take my blood for testing before? How was the test done?"

Mrs. Pomfrey then looked enlightened and said, "We will use a series of spells to test it, because people have some special magical reactions when they are sick."

"It's very complicated, and it can't be done by one person alone. I can't explain it clearly in a short time."

Okay, Dolly understands now.

She thought St. Mungo's College could perform routine blood tests, but it turns out they still rely on magic.

However, this is quite reasonable, since biomedicine is considered cutting-edge science in Muggles, so how could wizards possibly be in sync?

"Actually, I understand the concept of a cell."

Seemingly seeing Dolly's disappointment, Mrs. Pomfrey finally spoke up, unwilling to give up, "The treatment methods used by doctors over there in Muggles, right?"

"It's not that no one in St. Mungo's is willing to use some of the scientific methods of Muggles, but unfortunately there are very few people who can understand them."

"Therefore, I can only answer your questions about magic."

Dolly smiled slightly and said, "Thank you for your patience, Mrs. Pomfrey."

She was somewhat disappointed, but didn't dwell on it.

After all, if you were to ask any school doctor to analyze a wizard's potion from a Muggle's scientific perspective, it would be a miracle if she could answer.

Snape, who seemed to understand something, said, "You want to ask if the blood-replenishing medicine will harm your health, right?"

"The main ingredients of the blood-tonifying medicine are unicorn horn powder and mandela rootlets."

"Unicorn horn powder is fine, basically harmless, but excessive consumption of mandrake can lead to poisoning."

"Of course, even without mandrake, I would not recommend that you take any kind of potion for a long time."

"Health is never built up with drugs; drugs can only relieve pain and treat illness."

If an ordinary person asked this question, Snape wouldn't even bother to answer it.

But the person in front of me is Dolly, and she has this strange disease.

Snape turned to Madam Pomfrey and asked, "Doesn't St. Mungo's have any reports on Dolly's strange illness?"

Mrs. Pomfrey then realized what was happening and said, "If they had noticed anything amiss, they would have told me..."

"If they had discovered that Dolly's illness was strange, they would have rushed over to take Miss Dursley to St. Mungo's for treatment long ago, since it could be a chance to win the Order of Merlin."

Silence fell over the room. This was a very bad omen, meaning that Dolly the disease was not only the only case in the Muggle world.

It might become a unique case even in the magical world.

Dolly knew exactly what was going on and didn't want everyone to worry too much about her illness, so she smiled and said, "But I've recovered, haven't I?"

"Maybe this is the last time. Okay, stop looking so sad, Harry."

Harry sniffed and turned his head to the side.

"By the way, Professor Snape, how much does this bottle of blood-replenishing medicine cost?"

"I still have a lot of pocket money, which I can use to make it up to you."

Upon hearing this, Snape's eyebrows shot up as if he had been insulted, and he said, "Money?"

"Do you think you can buy my brewed potions with just ordinary Galleons?"

“I can provide Hogwarts with free potions, which you unruly, always sick and injured brats can then use.”

"But that doesn't mean you can afford the potions I brew, nor does it mean I'm going to sell them to you."

Snape spoke with arrogance, and he had every right to be proud.

As the youngest Potions Master, his skills may not be the most exquisite.

But the potions brewed by those masters who are even more experienced than him are far beyond the reach of ordinary people.

Dolly listened obediently to the reprimand, then looked at Snape with her emerald green eyes and a slightly disappointed expression.

As a result, Snape, who had been holding his head high, suddenly felt a discomfort in his throat, probably because he had spoken too loudly.

He touched his throat, changed his tone, and said, "If you are really sick, you can naturally ask Miss Granger to come to me for a potion. I will take responsibility for the health of the students at the school."

"As for buying it with Galleons, that's impossible."

"professor."

Dolly slowly opened her mouth and said, "Actually, I want to keep some potions with me at all times, so that I can save myself in time if something happens."

"Then we won't need to cause everyone so much trouble like we did today."

"That's why I wanted to buy your potions just in case; I didn't mean to look down on you."

Looking into Dolly's sincere eyes, Snape immediately believed her.

I immediately realized that I had not only spoken too loudly, but also been too irritable.

Dolly isn't a Gryffindor like Harry, so how could she possibly have such arrogant thoughts?

He paused for a moment, then said, "I can keep a bottle on hand for you, but remember that potions have a limited shelf life."

"And you can only drink a small sip each time you need it, and you can only drink one bottle at most every two weeks."

"If this still doesn't meet your needs, it would be best to have Mrs. Pomfrey take you to St. Mungo's so that the doctors can carefully examine the cause of your illness."

"As for Galleons, there's no need for that."

“You’re not the only student with a chronic illness, and iron supplements aren’t that expensive.”

After saying that, Snape looked at Hermione and said, "You come and get the medicine for her tomorrow."

"Okay, Professor, thank you."

Hermes looked at Snape with great emotion, gaining a completely new understanding of him.

Harry was the only one who remained silent, and Snape glanced at Harry but didn't say anything more.

Although seeing Harry still made his back ache, this was clearly not the place to take revenge on or scold Harry.

I guess I'll deduct points from Harry again in Potions class.

Yes, a minimum of 10 points.

"Well then, Mrs. Pomfrey, I have a lot of work to do, so I'll be leaving now."

After saying that, Snape turned and left, as if he couldn't wait.

But as she watched Snape's retreating figure, Madam Pomfrey said, "Professor Snape is not quite what people say. I've heard from the students that he doesn't care about their health... Oh no, I might be a little inappropriate to say that."

Although she apologized verbally, Mrs. Pomfrey didn't seem to feel guilty at all.

Because the injured and sick students sent from Snape's Potions class accounted for about half of the students hospitalized due to teaching accidents.

More importantly, the injuries of the students brought to Potions class were all over the place. If Snape hadn't been able to provide the potions himself, Madam Pomfrey would have questioned him about what was going on long ago.

Harry then looked up and said, "If he really cared about every student, he should have come when Neville was injured."

“Mr. Neville Longbottom? He was indeed quite pitiful, but he has been discharged from the hospital.”

Madam Pomfrey gave Harry a reassuring look, then said, "Well, children, let Miss Dursley rest here today."

"You can stay here for another half hour, after which I will kick you out."

Hermione and Harry exchanged a glance, then went to Dolly's side, both seemingly reluctant to part.

Seeing this, Dolly felt a little embarrassed by her sense of morality. After all, this was the first time she had ever done something like this, openly deceiving people for her own benefit and making a fool of them.

Luckily, you get used to it after doing it a few more times, hehe!

There was no other way; using potions to increase attribute points was something Dolly had planned long ago, and it was something she had to do.

As for the trouble caused to Harry and Hermione, we'll repay them in other ways later. At worst, we'll make Harry suffer less, and then give herself to Hermione as compensation.

Thinking of this, Dolly smiled and said, "I'm basically recovered. You can see for yourselves."

Dolly turned to get out of bed, but Hermione pressed her down against the headboard and said sternly, "Don't move!"

"I won't let you get out of bed except to use the restroom, or I'll stop being your friend."

Dolly immediately put on a pitiful look, which made Hermione laugh.

Hermione reached out and rubbed Dolly's cheeks, making Dolly's lips look round and plump, before smiling and saying, "Anyway, your health comes first, leave the rest to us."

Harry was a little envious, but knowing he was in the wrong, he could only watch the two of them bicker.

After Hermione had finished playing with Dolly's face and let go, Dolly waved to Harry.
