Chapter 67 Harry's Headache and Nightmare (Modified)
"I'm sorry, Firenze, I forgot that you were still waiting for me outside." Allen sincerely apologized and won Firenze's understanding.
"It's okay, Alan. Seeing that Gaia can restore the former glory of the unicorn, I knew that you must have had a wonderful time last night." Firenze congratulated Gaia again, "Congratulations, Gaia, you will Fly!"
Gaia happily couldn't help shaking her wings a few times.
The sky was getting brighter, and Ellen was eager to return to Hogwarts Castle, so he said goodbye to Gaia and Firenze.
Before leaving, Firenze repeatedly told Alan, "You must come to the Maren tribe when you have time." Alan agreed to this request.
Hogwarts, with final exams approaching, tensions are building at the school. Although Alan is very confident in his academic level, he still read all the textbooks and notes again in such a strong learning atmosphere. It is a good habit to review the old and learn the new, and it is a good quality to be modest and prudent.
Unlike Alan, who had a full life, Harry was obviously depressed. Since the last time he came back from the forest, he had been feeling a sharp stabbing pain on his forehead. This painful feeling has been haunting him.
Neville saw that Harry hadn't slept well all night, and muttered to Flegal that he was suffering from severe exam phobia. Fleger found Alan quietly. He thought that apart from teachers, among the students, the only one who could help Harry was Alan.
Allen felt that Harry would definitely not be tossing and turning because of the exam. His performance must be related to the trip to the Forbidden Forest that day. Allen found Harry during his walk after lunch and asked about his situation.
In fact, it is true, Harry is constantly being awakened by that nightmare in the past, and now it is worse than before, because there is another figure in a hood with blood dripping from the corner of his mouth in the nightmare, which turns into a cloud of black smoke. He rushed over.
"Alan, do you think I'm too fragile? To be scared so easily, and still have nightmares every day?" Harry worried that his friends would underestimate him. This is why he refused to talk to Ron and Hermione. Alan is different, he is knowledgeable, stable and reliable, Harry even sometimes regards Alan as his elder brother.
"Harry, Gryffindor is known for its bravery. You must have such qualities when you were selected into Gryffindor by the Sorting Hat. The Sorting Hat never makes mistakes." Alan comforted softly, and he did indeed I think so.
"However, the Sorting Hat wanted me to be put into Slytherin the most." Harry whispered what was in his heart. In fact, he had always cared about the Sorting Hat's original decision. If he hadn't insisted, he might have been sorted into Slytherin. Slytherin is gone.
"Harry, everyone has more than one personality. Who dares to say that Slytherin can't be brave, and Gryffindor has no shortage of ambitious people. The choice of the sorting hat is just to see the best in you." It’s just outstanding potential. Since you have been assigned to Gryffindor, it means that you are indeed a person with bravery and fearlessness.” It seems that Harry was not persuaded by Alan, and Alan stopped talking , One day the facts will prove to Harry that Harry is a real Gryffindor.
"Let's talk about your nightmare again. It may have something to do with the black shadow passing through you directly, and it was affected by the opponent's magic power. Of course, there may be other connections between you. It is also possible that what happened that day in the Forbidden Forest You are too impressed with your previous nightmare."
Alan couldn't tell Harry nakedly that the murderer who passed through you was the murderer of your parents! His purpose is to relieve Harry's troubles, relieve his pain, and let Harry successfully complete the exam, rather than lead Harry to search for Voldemort in a boundless manner.
"Well, Harry, there is a potion that may relieve your headache, or at least give you a good night's sleep. I just happen to know how to make it, but there are two missing ingredients: moonstone powder and hellebore essence syrup. As far as I know , Professor Snape's storage room should have these two herbs.
If we're going to ask Professor Snape for help—" Before Alan could finish, Harry interrupted him manically.
"No, definitely not Snape, he won't help me." Harry's headache made him almost unable to control his emotions.
Allen didn't think there was anything wrong with asking Professor Snape for help. It was only natural for students to ask their teachers for help! It's no big deal to be damaged at most, and you can definitely get the medicinal materials in the end. But if Harry didn't want to, he could only think of other ways.
The most formal way is naturally owl procurement. Although it takes a long time, it should be able to get the desired results. The next best way is to ask senior seniors for help, but they don't necessarily have it. Madam Pomfrey should have this herb, but how to explain it to her?
Allen decided to go to the owl shack on the top floor of the West Tower to find Benny first, try to purchase first, and at the same time go to Professor Snape to inquire. If possible, he can borrow some medicinal materials from the professor first, and wait for the ordered medicinal materials to arrive. Can I resupply Professor Snape?
Not to mention how Allen planned to discuss with Professor Snape, Harry returned to the Gryffindor common room and found Hermione and Ron.
"Why don't you go to Madam Pomfrey." Hermione immediately thought of asking the teacher for help.
"But how to explain it to Madam Pomfrey? Besides, she might give you the potion instead of the ingredients!" Harry scratched his head, feeling very tricky.
"Why don't we go to Snape's office and steal some. We'll return it when we get the medicinal ingredients." Ron blurted out, and several people looked at each other.
Harry agreed to the proposal without hesitation. He really couldn't do begging to someone who clearly loathed him, but what if it was a silent replacement?
"Harry, we can't sneak into the teacher's office..." Hermione pursed her lips, clearly disapproving.
However, for Harry, if the pain on his forehead and the nightmares every day and night could be solved, how wonderful life would be! Harry couldn't bear such a temptation, so he immediately decided to secretly replace the medicinal ingredients.
"We have Potions class in the afternoon, you are responsible for dragging Professor Snape, and I will go to his private storage room to get the medicinal materials.
Although Hermione disapproved of Harry's decision very much, she finally made friends in school, and she was willing to take risks for Harry.
"Okay!" Harry readily agreed. Next, they discussed how to get Snape's attention and hold him back for the afternoon.
"Harry, as long as you keep making mistakes, you should be able to attract most of his attention." Hermione pointed out the truth straight to the point.
Although Harry was reluctant to be scolded, it was undeniable that this was indeed a method he thought was effective.
"Maybe we can create some confusion in class so that Harry doesn't have to be scolded." Ron's proposal was obviously more in Harry's mind. A few people decided to ask George and Fred quietly, no one was better at mischief than them.
