With the automatic cleaning kit, Snape's confinement suddenly became easier.

That night, George finished cleaning all the cauldrons in the Potions classroom in just over an hour.

Moreover, he used the suit very covertly. Although Filch next to him found it a bit strange, he did not find anything wrong. He just thought that George had been put in solitary confinement too many times and he was just very skilled at it.

Filch isn't bragging, but if he were to clean these cauldrons, it would only take him half an hour.

So after checking and making sure there was no problem, he took George away.

George used this as a topic of conversation.

The next morning, he talked about his findings during his night tour of the Potions classroom at the Gryffindor dining table, claiming that he found a letter written to Snape in an abandoned cauldron, but it was later confiscated by Filch.

Although George didn't say it explicitly, his implication was very clear - the letter was a love letter.

This made the little lions very excited.

They don't care whether this is true or not, as long as they have fun, that's enough.

On the Hufflepuff side, Kyle was also very happy.

But his happiness had nothing to do with Snape's gossip, but was just because he had a Herbology class today.

Professor Sprout announced in the last class that Rue's course was over and they could start learning about the Devil's Snare.

There couldn't be any better news.

After breakfast, Kyle and everyone else came to the greenhouse outside the castle. The students who were attending class with them were Gryffindor students.

"Why do I feel like you're a little excited?"

Connor glanced at Kyle and said, "The book says that Devil's Snare is a very dangerous plant. Aren't you worried?"

"well enough."

Kyle quickly put away the smile on his face and said, "In fact, the Devil's Snare is just a scary name, but it's not that dangerous. As long as you master the method, it will become more docile than Puffy Catkins."

"Absolutely."

At this time, Professor Sprout suddenly came from behind the crowd. She looked at Kyle with a smile and said, "Don't worry about me. Continue to tell me what you know."

"All right."

Kyle cleared his throat and said, "According to the book Magical Vine Plants, Devil's Snare was once popular for a long time, and many wizards would plant one or two of them at home because they could protect underground storage rooms from rats and spiders.

However, after the Ministry of Magic classified Devil's Snare as a dangerous plant and banned private cultivation, it gradually disappeared from wizards' homes."

"Even I couldn't have said it more comprehensively," Professor Sprout said happily, "Five points for Hufflepuff."

"Like Kyle said, the Devil's Snare isn't as dangerous as its name suggests, but..."

She paused, her face becoming more serious. "They are not dangerous if you know about them. If you know nothing about Devil's Snares, they will become very dangerous and may even kill you."

After these words, the little wizards became much quieter.

Professor Sprout nodded with satisfaction.

They came to Greenhouse No. 2 today.

After entering the greenhouse, the first feeling is that the light is very dim. The roof and surroundings are completely blocked. The only light source is two dim oil lamps.

Fortunately, the greenhouse is not big, and after getting used to it, I can still see the surrounding situation clearly.

Compared to the previous Greenhouse No. 1, the plants here are much more peculiar.

In addition to the devil's snares on the table, Kyle also saw exploding bean pods, as well as poisonous plants such as fang geranium and belladonna.

The only pity was that he didn't see the mandrake here.

“This is the Devil’s Snare.”

Everyone looked at Kyle in unison, their movements quite uniform.

"The Devil's Snare can extend snake-like tendrils to entangle anyone who approaches it, causing injury or death." Kyle blurted out.

"Absolutely right, five points for Hufflepuff." Professor Sprout pointed at the roots of the Devil's Snare and said, "Look, our Devil's Snare is still very young."

Because the light was dim, everyone moved forward to see more clearly, but they couldn't see anything special, and they didn't know how Professor Sprout judged them to be "young".

This thing is almost two meters long.

Professor Sprout throws an empty flower pot into the Devil's Snare.

As soon as the flowerpot fell, it was tightly entangled by the tendrils of the devil's snare, and then with a "snap" it turned into pieces on the ground.

The young wizards collectively took a step back, looking at Kyle and Professor Sprout as if they had seen a ghost.

How can you call this less dangerous? "Look at the tendrils, they are still tender green, while mature devil's snares are dark green."

Professor Sprout simply cleaned up the broken pieces of the flowerpot and said calmly, "So if you get entangled by it, you won't die, but it won't be a good experience either."

"Now, who can tell me what to do to get rid of the Devil's Snare?"

Everyone looked at Kyle again.

"Don't panic when you are entangled. When you relax your whole body and stop struggling, the Devil's Snare will loosen."

Kyle said, "Also, the Devil's Snare hates light and fire. Sometimes a simple illumination spell can get rid of its restraints."

Hearing this, Mikel next to him suddenly chuckled and puffed out his chest proudly.

Illumination spell? He was familiar with this.

It is no exaggeration to say that among all the young wizards present, no one knows the illumination spell better than him.

"Exactly, three points for Hufflepuff."

"We're going to learn how to fertilize Devil's Snare today."

Professor Sprout took out a small wooden barrel and said, "Here are the tools and compost. Be sure to move gently during the process. If you get entangled, remember to relax your whole body.

Now, who wants to come and try it first? "

For the third time, Kyle felt gazes coming from all directions, and this time there was also Professor Sprout looking at him.

"Let me go first."

Kyle came out.

"take it easy."

Kyle took the shovel handed over by Professor Sprout and slowly reached out to the roots of the Devil's Snare.

Everyone slowed down their breathing.

Kyle's hands were steady. During the whole process, he perfectly avoided every tendril of the Devil's Snare and successfully dug a small hole at the root.

Then he used tweezers to pick up a silver particle the size of a soybean from the wooden barrel containing compost and put it into the pit.

Finally, fill the soil and the fertilization is complete.

Just as Kyle pulled his hand out of the Devil's Snare, he heard Professor Sprout's voice.

"Ten points for Hufflepuff."
