A Professor of Magic at Hogwarts Chapter 206: A conversation with Lupine

Harry woke up from his bed in the hospital hospital and saw the white ceiling.

"Here you are, Harry." He heard Hermione's voice, and he reached for it—his glasses.

After Harry put on his glasses, his vision became clearer, and he saw Hermione and Ron sitting beside him. Madam Pomfrey was mixing the potion on the small table beside the bed, and Professor Lupine bent over to check on his condition.

Across the aisle, Professor Haipu was sitting leisurely on the opposite bed, flipping through a copy of "Daily Prophet".

"Professor—"

"Son, drink it first." Madam Pomfrey said, Harry struggled and said, "I think I'm fine!"

"Oh, is it?" She said absently, "It doesn't prevent you from drinking up the potion, hurry up, or I'll replace you with a pair of water of life and death."

Harry drank the liquid in the glass in one gulp. He looked at Felix and said eagerly, "Professor Haip, have I held on for two minutes?"

Felix put down the newspaper, smiled and said, "Your last shot was really good. I was planning to squeeze the time."

It wasn't until two or three seconds later that Harry heard what the professor meant, and he showed a surprised expression, "So, I, I..."

"Well," Felix blinked at him, "You can consider your wish slowly, don't make it too difficult, otherwise I will refuse."

Harry blurted out: "I want to know about my father, and Sirius Black!" He glanced at Professor Lupine next to him - he was looking at himself in amazement, and whispered: "Thank you You come to see me, Professor Lupine."

Professor Lupine said gently: "It's nothing, I happen to be fine tonight. Harry, about your father--"

Madam Pomfrey brought over a blanket, "It's a bit cold at night, cover this up." She turned her head to look at the two professors, and said impatiently, "The patient needs to rest, so please try to keep your story short."

Professor Lupine changed his words: "Harry, I know you have some questions, you can come to me this weekend. I won't bother you, Professor Haipu, shall we go together?"

Felix stood up, "Of course."

The two walked out of the office together, and when they turned a corridor, Lupine stopped: "Professor Haipu, we need to talk."

"About Porter?"

"Yes, about Harry." Lupine said calmly, "I can see that you treat him differently. But don't you think that some of your ways are not suitable for a third-year child? "

"You mean?" Felix looked at him curiously.

"Summer vacation training, please forgive me, they were in the same compartment as me at the time, and I overheard some. From Harry's description, he fainted more than a dozen times during your special training..."

Felix said casually: "It may be more than that. If the data I recorded is correct, it should be 32 times."

Lupine looked at him seriously, "Don't you realize the seriousness of the problem? He's only thirteen years old!"

"What does age mean? Will Black let him go because of his young age, and wait until he is an adult?" Felix said with a sneer, "If you are worried about his health, it is unnecessary, I am well prepared."

Lupine suppressed the anger in his heart, "Harry will be safe staying at school. Besides, not everything can be prevaricated by 'getting ready'. Have you considered his psychological capacity?" What were you doing when you were thirteen?"

Felix looked at him blankly, and said softly: "In my opinion, your reasons are all excuses, at least, I will not pin my hopes on others, and pretend to be innocent with peace of mind." It happened."

Lupine calmed down, hesitated and said, "I don't want my words to show some kind of prejudice, but you are from Slytherin, and you are still a student of Snape..."

"What do you want to say, Lupine?" Felix knocked on the window sill in front of him, "I'm in a hurry."

Lupine took a deep breath, "I am more concerned about Harry's safety than anyone else, and you have too much influence on him. However, Snape and his father were sworn enemies in school. Nepe's attitude affects you."

Felix cast his eyes out of the window, "Severus can't control me yet, but I really don't plan to change my teaching philosophy. Professor Lupine, you are too broad, what does Harry have to do with you?" ? Let's separate."

He took a few steps, counting silently in his heart, one, two, three...

"I know Harry's father! We are good friends, even beyond the limit of this word, and I am very grateful to him." Lupine said suddenly.

Felix, who turned his back to him, raised the corners of his mouth, and he looked back at Lupin, "You expect to convince me with vague words?"

"...Harry's father, James, Potter, he is the genius seed in the school, he can learn everything easily, he is a top-notch figure, and Sirius...I mean Black." Lupine stood shoulder to shoulder with him, looking out the window, it was completely dark. "I was a marginal person at the time, and James accepted me."

"James and that man were young and energetic, with a flamboyant personality, and were very popular with their classmates. James later joined the Quidditch team. But on the other hand, they also became Slytherin's target."

Felix asked with interest: "Can you tell me in detail?"

Lupine thought for a while, and carefully chose his words, "The Slytherins at that time...may not be the same as the ones you came into contact with. The theory of the mysterious man was very popular. In the ranks of the Death Eaters. We privately call them the Death Eaters Reserve."

Felix nodded and said: "I have indeed heard about it."

"James and that man, that is Sirius Black, he was still a good guy." Lupine said awkwardly: "They soon became a banner of Gryffindor, James is careless and likes to make some mischief , but he hates evil and has always defended his classmates in the academy. Black, he strongly dislikes the corrupt family he was born in, and he also has no affection for Slytherin. He even severed ties with his family when he was 16 years old. , he will betray James in the end." He shook his head and did not continue.

But Felix has already understood what he did not express, and he said with emotion: "How can a boy full of justice become a dragon, how can we not make people feel sad?"

Lupine continued: "James and Black offended a lot of people. Of course, some people did hate them because of pranks, but they didn't care about it. Peter and I were also involved. Looking back now , I would feel unbelievable for my stupidity at that time."

"You didn't just want to tell me some of your experiences when you were young, did you?"

"Speaking soon, James and Black had an old enemy at the time, that is, the current potions professor, Severus Snape. They fought openly and secretly, and even for some reason, this kind of fight ended in the last few days The year has reached a fever pitch."

"Because of Harry's mother?" Felix asked, interrupting him. Judging from the news he inquired, it seems that most of them are emotional entanglements. "Forgive me, I found some information privately."

Lupine stared at him with complicated expressions, and said after a long while: "You are really a Slytherin, Professor Haip. I don't mean to belittle, but you obviously know some inside information but Keep your mouth shut..."

Felix said briefly: "My knowledge is limited, and I can't get a glimpse of the whole picture of the year, but it is still possible to distinguish some doubts. Please continue, Professor Lupine..."

Lupine said a little speechlessly: "It's far more complicated than that. I'm one of the people who understand it best, Professor Haipu. I hope our conversation will not be leaked."

"At least I won't say it." He glanced across the corner of the corridor, showing a playful smile.

But what if someone is here?

"Harry's mother, Lily Evans, she and Snape were good friends before entering school, and James and Black hit it off right away, and the wonderful fate made them sit in the same car in the first year, but This meeting was not pleasant. After entering school, James complained to Lily, reminding her that she should not make friends with Slytherins, they are a bunch of scum, but Lily ignored him."

"Not long after, I became friends with James and I brought Peter. The four of us were inseparable, a bit like Harry and his two best friends." He smiled and said, that should be his life One of the best memories ever.

"As I said before, James and Black quickly emerged and gained a large number of fans. As for their relationship with Snape, it can only be said that it is somewhat similar to the current Harry and Malfoy, Snape It brings together too many things that James doesn't like: slovenly, studies black magic, is a Slytherin, and pesters his classmates."

"Why entanglement? I remember you said that Snape and Harry's mother were good friends." Felix asked.

"That's right, but you can't expect an eleven or twelve-year-old boy to analyze problems calmly, let alone James and Sirius..." He paused, "Both of them are impulsive characters."

"The conflict between James and Snape quickly escalated. James cast a curse on Snape, and Snape also developed various spells to counterattack, while Lily has been defending Snape. All kinds of things are not pleasing to the eye."

"Several years have passed like this, and James's heart has sprouted," he smiled, "He suddenly had a crush on Lily, who had always been at odds with him, and tried to strike up a conversation with her, but why would Lily talk to him? James quickly changed himself, he became less arrogant, and he didn't always show off himself, in short, he showed a mature side..."

"The fight between him and Snape was also moved to a dark place, so that Lily couldn't see it. We didn't think it was wrong. Professor En's love has given him a lot of advice. We all agree that if he graduates, it will definitely increase the strength of the Death Eaters."

"In the middle, because of some relatively bad things, Lily broke up with Snape, and James took advantage of it. Please forgive me for using this word, but the meaning is similar."

"James and Lily fell in love, and the relationship between him and Snape became more complicated—personal discord, ideological disputes, and finally emotional problems."

"If I had to say ~IndoMTL.com~ the person Snape hates the most is James, followed by probably Black, who acted as an undercover agent for the You-Know-Who and leaked the address of the Harry family. Oh my God , I don't know how to tell Harry that James trusted him so much that he even made him Harry's godfather..." Lupine said with red eyes.

"Professor Haipu," Lupine looked at him and said sincerely, "We don't have much contact with you, but I can tell that you are a serious and responsible professor. Some of my students like you very much. Even if they're not old enough to take your electives."

"I tell you these past events in the hope that you will not be influenced by Snape. Please also believe me, my feelings for Harry are sincere."

Felix was silent for a moment, "Professor Lupine, you are overthinking. Harry is my favorite student, and I also look forward to his future."

Lupine left, Felix looked around the corner, sighed slightly, and left from the other side.

At the corner of the corridor, Harry sat silently on the ground, Ron and Hermione looked at him with complicated expressions.
