Chapter 395: A Master at Destroying the Atmosphere

Seeing that Sirius agreed to this, Dumbledore shut up. He just gave Snape a warning look, telling him not to go too far.

Snape ignored Dumbledore's look. He grinned and sneered at Sirius, then walked to the cabinet in the corner of the office.

"Last year, Lockhart took the medicine I randomly prepared, which gave me inspiration. Since the brain block technique requires sufficient concentration to perform, then... is it possible that the truth serum will work as long as the prisoners can't concentrate on performing the brain block technique?"

As he explained slowly to others, he opened the cabinet and took out two thumb-sized glass bottles from it. The liquid in one bottle was as clear as water, while the liquid in the other bottle was a worrying green color.

"So, before taking the truth serum, you must first swallow this bottle of potion I developed that has not been clinically tested. I gave it a nice name, the mind-loss potion."

Snape gently shook the bottle of green potion, and handed it to Sirius with a malicious smile.

Sirius and Snape looked at each other for a while, and then looked at the bottle in his hand hesitantly. Snape was not in a hurry, just holding the bottle with a careless smile on his face.

"Minerva, what is the truth serum used for?"

(ω)

Just as the two were confronting each other, Fish couldn't help but tug at Professor McGonagall's robe. This was the second time he heard the name of this potion, so he was very curious about what this thing was used for.

"That's a potion that can make people tell the truth," Professor McGonagall replied solemnly, "but this is a very immoral act, so we usually only use it to torture criminals."

"Why?" Fish tilted his head in confusion, "Minerva always asked Fish to tell the truth, isn't the truth serum the same?"

"Well, because the truth serum is a kind of forcing others to tell the truth," Professor McGonagall patiently explained to Fish, "Everyone has some little secrets that they don't want others to know. It's a very bad behavior to force others to find out their secrets."

It would have been better if Professor McGonagall didn't explain. This explanation immediately made the cat explode.

"Minerva always forced Fish to tell the truth! And didn't let Fish keep secrets! You big bad guy!"

(`Д)

Fish felt very wronged, and even had a little crying in his voice-he liked Minerva so much, but the other party actually treated him like a prisoner.

"Ah..."

Professor McGonagall's head ached, she pinched her eyebrows, but it was not easy to get angry at the little cat who was feeling wronged.

"These two situations are different..." Professor McGonagall considered her words, rubbing Fish's cat head and explaining softly.

"You are still young and can't make accurate judgments about many things. For example, if you keep the matter of Scabbers a secret, Black is likely to die, so Mom must help you judge whether these things should be kept secret..."

Snape and Sirius, who were still confronting each other on the other side, looked at Professor McGonagall coaxing the child here speechlessly.

We are serious here, can you not ruin the atmosphere?

The emotions have become incoherent... Huh? Didn't I encounter a similar experience not long ago?

Although Snape and Sirius were still confronting each other, their thoughts had already gone to who knows where.

It was Sirius who came back to his senses first. He gritted his teeth, stopped hesitating, and reached out to grab the bottle of potion.

"No!"

Harry jumped out to stop him. Fish's words had completely proved that Sirius was innocent, so he naturally didn't want to see his godfather being poisoned by Snape.

"You will be poisoned to death!" Harry shouted to Sirius without hiding, "Didn't you hear what Snape said just now? This medicine is the first time for people to drink it!"

"Don't worry," Snape smiled sinisterly, "I can still guarantee the safety of the mind-destroying potion... At least I can guarantee that no one will die after drinking it. As for other sequelae, Black needs to verify it for me."

This did not comfort Harry at all. He hugged Sirius's arm holding the medicine tightly and shouted loudly: "I believe you are innocent! That's enough!"

However, it is not enough for Harry to believe it now. Sirius also understands that if he fails to pass Snape, he will definitely notify the Ministry of Magic. At that time, not only will Lupin be implicated, but Dumbledore may also conflict with the Ministry of Magic.

So he smiled and pushed Harry away, and comforted him softly: "Don't worry, although I don't like Snape either, he is still trustworthy in potions."

"Can you show this bottle of medicine to Fish?"

(ω)

The kitten who was comforted by Professor McGonagall also came over at this time. He tugged at Sirius's robe and asked.

Sirius hesitated for a moment, but still handed the bottle over.

This little wizard named Fish was so amazing, so he was also curious about what the cat did with the bottle.

However, Fish didn't even take the bottle, and directly tapped [Detect Toxicity] on it.

A light golden light flashed by, and Fish looked at Snape with a little surprise.

"It's really not poisonous, meow. Fish thought Severus would put some of my birthday present in it."

Snape's cheeks twitched slightly, and he said bitterly: "If I can, I certainly don't mind doing this, but unfortunately, the headmaster will not allow me to do this."

Professor McGonagall raised her eyebrows slightly... When did her cat give Snape a gift again?

But the cat just got angry because of the confidentiality issue, and Sirius's matter was more important. Now is obviously not a good time to ask, so it's better to ask later.

And Dumbledore asked with a bit of sourness: "Fish, what gift did you give Severus?"

"Fish thought Severus would like potion materials, so he went to the big spider in the Forbidden Forest to ask for some venom for him," Fish answered honestly, and stretched out his hand to gesture, "I gave him such a big jar!"

Dumbledore and Professor McGonagall's mouths twitched...

This prodigal child!

And Sirius's eyelids were twitching wildly.

The venom of the eight-eyed giant spider...If Snape releases this thing, will he still be alive?

After being speechless for a while, he raised his head and drank the green potion in his hand.

Fish said that the potion was not poisonous, and Sirius believed it, because the cat showed too many magical things, and he also saw the light golden light that flashed by, and it was not strange to have another ability to detect toxins.

However, as soon as the bottle of pale green heart-losing potion went into his throat, Sirius screamed, threw down the empty bottle in his hand, hugged his head and fell to the ground, and cried and roared, or trembled with fear on his face, looking like crazy.

"Fish, didn't you say that the bottle of potion was not poisonous?!"

Harry held Fish's shoulders and shook it hard a few times, but with his strength, he couldn't make the kitten shake at all.

"The heart-losing potion is not poisonous."

Just when the cat was also confused, Snape took the initiative to explain.

"My original intention of inventing this potion is to destroy the will of the person who takes it, so it will not cause any harm to the human body, but will torture the mind to make people lose their minds."

Snape looked at Harry, who was anxious, and Black, who was rolling on the ground, with a cruel and happy smile on his face.

"Oh... Fish understands meow!"

The kitten suddenly realized: "It's just like the potion called wine!"

Snape: "..."

Foreigners seem to have the habit of classifying dangerous things as female, and they also use the opposite sex's name for their important items, so Snape used "she" when referring to the mind-destroying potion, which is not a typo.
