Hogwarts: What bad intentions could the little badger have?

Go to the forest.

It's like going home...

……

By the time Hermione arrived at the greenhouse for the Herbology class.

She found that Blake had arrived.

Chatting and laughing with Professor Sprout.

"You were clearly going in the opposite direction...how did you get here before us?"

Hermione was puzzled by this.

"It's simple, because I flew here."

Blake tells it like it is.

Of course, sometimes the truth is hard to believe.

So he got a big eye roll from Hermione.

……

In the following herbal class.

Black was still pressing Hermione to grab points.

Except for Blake, of course.

The little badgers' morale was boosted.

They also raised their hands to answer questions.

that's it.

Hermione, who "fought one against a hundred", was ultimately defeated.

A whole class.

Only earned five points for Gryffindor.

Professor Sprout felt a little embarrassed.

I added it on purpose...

……

"Professor Dumbledore! This is true!"

"Such a big box..."

"Just...suddenly disappeared..."

When Blake came to the principal's office.

I happened to see Mr. Filch reporting the strange incident to Professor Dumbledore.

After Mrs. Norris saw Blake.

Shouted excitedly.

Dumbledore asked Black to wait.

Then he said to Filch.

"I will investigate this matter. You can go back first, don't worry."

Mr. Filch picked up Mrs. Norris.

After taking a look at Blake.

He left the principal's office.

"How is this going?"

Blake asked, looking a little guilty.

"Someone broke into his office."

"And then quietly put him in his office."

"All the dangerous goods that have been confiscated over the years have been stolen."

"Mr. Filch suspects the Weasley twins did this."

“But I think this is not a simple matter.”

"Even the clever Weasley brothers couldn't do that."

Blake nodded.

He left no trace.

So I'm not worried at all about being investigated.

"Why did you come to see me?"

"Is such that……"

Blake pulled the books out of his pocket one by one.

“I have read all these books.”

"So...I want to ask you for a few new ones."

Dumbledore looked at the pile of books in shock.

"Blake, it's only been two days since school started...have you finished reading all these books?"

"Child, you should be honest..."

It was clear that Dumbledore did not believe that Black had read the books.

However, this is normal.

After all, he had only had these books for less than two days.

Moreover, such a huge amount of reading.

Be someone else.

Don't even think about finishing it in this short time.

It's just too much trouble to read them all.

"But...I'm talking about the real professor."

“…I’ve had a very good memory since I was a kid.”

“So after I read it once, I remembered it all.”

Dumbledore looked at Black in surprise.

Could it be that this child really has a photographic memory?

Dumbledore looked at Black in disbelief.

"Professor, if you don't believe me, you can ask me anything you want."

Dumbledore calmed down.

"Okay! Then I'll test you."

He certainly hoped that Blake wasn't lying.

In that case, it would prove that this child is incredibly talented.

This is a great thing!

Dumbledore pulled out a book at random from the pile with great interest.

It was a Potions book.

"So..." Dumbledore turned a random page.

"What's the formula for the stimulant potion?"

Blake suddenly felt how he was now.

It feels like being spanked on the back by a teacher in a previous life.

However, he is now much more confident than before.

At least he really memorized it.

"Hoklapp juice 50 a drop, comma. Three leaves of Dictamni..."

The more Dumbledore listened, the more shocked he became.

Because Blake not only memorized the passage he had randomly picked out completely.

Even the punctuation is correct!

Dumbledore looked at Black with surprise.

He had not known until now that Blake had a photographic memory.

Black happily accepted a golden treasure chest offered by Dumbledore.

Afterwards, Dumbledore randomly checked the contents of several books.

Then he discovered that what Blake said was true.

"Black..." Dumbledore put the book down.

"I'm glad you have such a powerful gift."

"But...I hope you won't become arrogant and complacent."

"By the way...I can give you a new book."

"But... I still hope you can digest the knowledge you have memorized now."

"Because this knowledge... apart from Alchemy, it is not enough to just remember it."

"You need to digest it well..."

What Dumbledore said actually makes sense.

It's like a math formula.

Just because you remember something doesn’t mean you will be able to solve the problem.

You also have to be able to use it flexibly.

Only when you truly understand the principles behind it.

The knowledge stored in the mind is alive.

Not dead.

So Dumbledore hoped that Black would go back and digest the knowledge he had already memorized.

Then learn new knowledge.

but……

"Professor, I understand. That's why I came to you for the new book only after I had fully mastered the knowledge."

987

Dumbledore didn't know that Black also had an extremely high talent in potions and alchemy.

Plus the talent of a top student.

He just read this knowledge once.

You will completely master it.

There is no need to digest it slowly like others!

Dumbledore looked at Black in surprise.

"Are you serious?"

Because of what I just experienced.
