Chapter 239： Snape's Defense Against the Dark Arts class

The game Cedric said is next Saturday, Gryffindor vs. Hufflepuff.

Mike had already known about this.

After all, if you have a Quidditch fanatic like Franklin by your side, it's hard not to know these things.

Originally, as the first important game at the beginning of the season, Gryffindor's opponent should be Slytherin.

However, when the Quidditch captain of Slytherin knew that there would be a storm on the day of the match, he did not hesitate to submit an evasion application, on the grounds that the injury on the arm of their seeker Draco was not healed.

Mike was surprised when he heard the news. Of course, he was not surprised that the Slytherin captain could know the weather on the day of the game so many days in advance.

The study of astrology combined with divination can easily predict the weather for many days in the future, and the accuracy is far more accurate than that of Muggle society.

Mike was surprised that Draco hadn't removed his disguise until now, and it seemed that he hadn't even listened to the warning last time.

Mike will naturally be there for the first game of Cedric this semester. After all, Cedric has brought so many people to join him, so he should also go with courtesy.

So he encouraged all the people he could call and prepared to cheer Cedric and Harry together at that time. Among these people were Penello and Franklin who were more talented students in the Patronus Curse.

Although these people are still far from reaching the standard of releasing the physical version of the patron saint, they can also release some faint light, but they are not very useful.

Mike summoned these people and did not expect them to help defend against the dementors who would invade the stadium at that time, but to behave and let everyone know that he is an excellent teacher, as long as he learns well, he can learn the patron saint curse.

This is the best publicity. When there are more people coming, Mike can set a higher threshold.

As for what you said in case the Dementor doesn't come?

In the original book, they attacked Harry during this game, so they will come this time.

Even if they don't plan to come, Mike will find a way to let them come!

After finishing these things in a lunch break, Mike took a group of Ravenclaw's classmates to the classroom of Defense Against the Dark Arts class.

Now Mike has become the well-deserved king of Ravenclaw College. Not only his classmates in the same grade and lower grades show his head, but even his senior classmates respect him very much.

This resulted in a large group of people following him wherever he went.

Mike now finally realizes the feeling of Cedric. This kind of ostentation looks impressive, but it is actually very troublesome.

He basically has no privacy anymore. He can't do anything private if he wants to do it, because even when he goes to the bathroom, several classmates will go with him!

He even looked at Little Mike secretly, and then showed an expression of inferiority!

When Mike and others came to the classroom, the professor waiting in the classroom was not Lupin, but Snape.

Mike was not surprised by this. Counting the time these days happened to be the full moon, Lupin would transform as a werewolf at this time, and it would be inappropriate to let him come to class.

But since Dumbledore invited Lupin to be a professor, he was naturally prepared. After all, the werewolf disease was not incurable.

Potion of wolf poison!

This is the potion for the treatment of werewolf disease!

This kind of medicine is actually just a inhibitor of werewolf transformation and cannot completely cure werewolf disease.

But its production is difficult to make people scalp numb. It is said that no more people can make this medicine than their hands in Europe!

Coincidentally, Snape happened to be one of them.

Every time the full moon reached the full moon, Snape would pre-dispense the wolf's poison potion and give it to Lupin to drink, and because of the side effects of the wolf's poison potion, Lupin would fall into a very weak period.

At this time, the kind Snape would help people to the end, helping himself, a former classmate, to take a few lessons on Defense Against the Dark Arts.

Naturally, Snape would not be so kind. He and Lupin had a great feud, and it was already the limit to let him help configure the wolf poison potion.

Mike even wondered if Snape had put some medicine in the wolf poison potion, which made Lupin extremely weak.

Because Mike checked all the information and found no record of such serious side effects from the wolf poison potion.

"Okay, Professor Lupin is unwell. I will take the place of the lesson today!" Snape glanced at the clock and saw that the time had come and started teaching. "Before that, I have already known your current progress through the students in other classes. , I think poor Lupin seriously underestimated you! After all, I have been able to deal with Red Hats independently at your age!"

The students in the audience looked at me and I looked at you, and they all had doubts about Snape's words.

The red hats were dangerous creatures of 4x level and were extremely good at sneak attacks. They didn't think Snape would be so strong in third grade.

Mike didn't think so. Snape was a fierce man who invented the Shadowless Curse when he was a student, and dealing with a red hat in the third grade was not a difficult task.

"be quiet!"

Snape yelled when the crowd was noisy, and when the crowd curled their necks like quails, they stopped talking before continuing:

"Then now, please turn the book to page 394!"

There was a sound of page turning from the audience, and when everyone said that the book had been turned to the designated position, they looked at each other again.

"Werewolf? Isn't this right? How could we deal with this?"

"Yes, it's better than Professor Lupin. According to the course, we should have learned the black goblin today! Damn! I have been looking forward to it for a long time!"

"Who said no."

...

Mike saw all this in his eyes, and Lupin was indeed a good teacher, which became especially obvious after his predecessor made a mess of the reputation of Defense Against the Dark Arts class.

He is very good at letting students learn knowledge while having fun, so that students can overcome their fear of dark magic creatures, so as to deal with them in a more calm and interesting way.

Bogut is like this, so is the water monster, so is the red cap.

But Snape was different. He didn't have much patience after long-term coaching of potions, which was difficult to understand. His teaching method was to instill as much knowledge as possible in the shortest time possible.

As for how much you can understand, this is not within his consideration.

If you can't keep up with the progress of your studies, it means that you have insufficient talent, that is, a monster with **** in your head!

And Snape had never had the slightest affection for idiots.

It's just that today is different. Snape showed another side of him, very patiently introducing the werewolf and werewolf disease to everyone.

In order to prevent everyone from being confused about the difference between werewolves and ordinary people, he even repeated the main points several times, until he confirmed that everyone can easily distinguish the difference between werewolves and ordinary people.

Mike knew what he wanted to do.

Lupin's body has returned to a healthy state after he has been recuperating at Hogwarts for so long. Not only has his body increased a lot, but even his gray hair has returned to its original color.

This obviously made Snape very upset.

So Snape wanted the students to discover Lupin's identity as a werewolf, so that Lupin could get out of Hogwarts, lose this well-paid job, and return to the quagmire.

Mike has to say that Snape is indeed a smart person, because when Snape proudly announced that he had finished class and walked out of the classroom, Mike found that at least three people in the classroom had thoughtful expressions on their faces. .

"There are still many smart people!"

Mike sighed.

There has never been a shortage of smart people in this world. Objectively speaking, Hermione's IQ can only be said to be average, far from reaching the level of genius.

If she had to say it, she was just a genius created by hard work. The wealth of knowledge resulting from long time reading poetry and the addition of Ron and Harry made people think she was a genius.

In fact, the true genius is much better than her.

Take Harry's mother Lily as an example.

She was once known as the most talented genius in modern times. No matter what the spell, she would learn it right away, and no matter how profound the potion formula she could make out...

Do you really think that the ancient family charm that kept Harry alive under the Killing Curse is so easy to learn?

It is not so much that Harry, the son of destiny, defeated Voldemort in the peak period, it is better to say that Lily and Voldemort died together.

If I say this, you should be able to understand how strong Lily is, right?

The woman who can die with Voldemort!

Mike smiled and shook his head. After throwing all these messy things out of his brain, he got rid of his large group of admirers and went to Lupin's office alone.

He must remind Lupin to pretend, he also needs Lupin.

At this stage, no one will reveal the identity of Lupin's werewolf, because everyone is still in the stage of careful verification.

For a long period of time, there will be many eyes staring at Lupin closely. Once they confirm their conjectures, Lupin's expulsion will be inevitable.

After all, Lupin is a werewolf, and a werewolf in the wizarding world is like an AIDS man in a Muggle society!

When Mike came to the Office of the Defense Against the Dark Arts, he saw Lupin lying in a recliner like an old farmer who was exhausted from farm work in the winter, sleeping soundly under a thick blanket.

Judging from his bloodless lips, he is in a terrible state now. The sufficient nourishment some time ago seemed to be taken from him overnight, which turned him back into the thin middle-aged man.

"Professor Lupin?"

Mike asked softly.

Lupin's sleep was very shallow, and Lupin's eyes opened a gap as soon as Mike made a sound.

"Ah, Mike."

Lu Ping panted heavily and responded weakly to Mike's call.

Seeing him like this, Mike was even more certain. Snape must have prescribed the wolf poison potion, otherwise there would be no such serious side effects.

"It looks like you are very sick."

"Yeah, cough!" Lupin coughed twice. "How was your class today? Snape didn't trouble you? Huh!"

Lupin started coughing violently when he finished speaking. Mike was a little bit away from Lupin unchecked. After Lupin's breath stabilized, he said:

"Very bad, he is suggesting that we are a werewolf. The worst part is that someone should already suspect you."

"Is that right?"

Lu Ping was taken aback when he heard the words, and then he became very disappointed.

"It looks like I'm going to change jobs again."

"Don't you hate him?"

"Hate? That's not enough. After all, I owe him." The expression on Lupin's face was tight at first, and then stretched again. "You know what? Don't look at Snape now. In this way, when he was young, he was a sniffer, and we all called him snot-eating back then..."

Lupin talked more and more vigorously, explaining how they bullied Snape when they were in school.

Although Mike heard this complete story about the second generation of the rich and the rich who had taken their childhood sweethearts and bullied them on campus, Lu Ping was very happy and even put on a smile on his face afterwards.

As he talked, the smile on Lupin's face suddenly disappeared, and then he said with a heavy face, "You know? Snape almost died because of me."

Mike looked at him in surprise, waiting quietly for the following.

"I was already a werewolf at the time. Whenever I was about to transform, I would go to an abandoned house in Hogsmeade Village through the secret road under the beating willow and vent my anger in it.

Later James learned that he took Blake and Peter and turned into animals to accompany me.

Help me at the risk of contracting werewolf disease! "

Lupin couldn't cry at this point,

"But the sniper Snape found out about this. He wanted to follow us but didn't know how to open the secret tunnel. So he was trapped under the beating willow.

As you know, the beating willow is a very aggressive magical creature, and the people who are entangled by it are basically hopeless.

Fortunately, we found him later. James risked his life to rescue him, but he was still seriously injured and even punished by the professors. "

Mike's eyes narrowed unconsciously He knew about the secret road under the beating willow, but he couldn't explain how he knew about it, because he even kept alive. The secret road is not marked on the map.

Now Sirius Black is hiding in the abandoned house Lupin said. Mike hadn’t found him to be able to find him logically. Now, with today’s dialogue, Mike can be upright. Go to Black.

After making a decision, Mike does not intend to continue to spend with Lupin, and said with a smile: "I still hope you can cheer up. To be honest, your class is really interesting. We all hope you can continue to serve as a professor. .

So please disguise it as much as possible. The more pretending the better, don't let them find out. "

"Aren't you afraid of me?"

Lupin's trembling tone entered Mike's ears, causing Mike to smile slightly and say, "Of course, you won't bite me."

Lupin stopped speaking, and tears fell from his face.

"Then I won't bother you to rest, I wish you a speedy recovery!"
