Daily Life at Hogwarts Chapter 790: Gryffindor never lacks courage

  Chapter 791 Gryffindor never lacks courage

  "Go to Hagrid's to catch mice?"

   Both Harry and Ron thought this was a bit baffling. Although they all knew that Hagrid's hut was indeed a bit of a rat, but... always felt that there was something weird about this.

  "Do you want to go together later?"

  Hermione picked up Crookshanks on her lap, took out the comb Albert gave for Christmas to the cat from her robe pocket, and asked Harry and Ron casually.

  "Well, we haven't been to Hagrid's place for a long time." Harry asked Ron sideways, "Will we go together?"

   "Of course." Ron nodded.

   Since the last Buckbeak escape, the three of them have never been to Hagrid's side to avoid suspicion.

   Now that the Buckbeak affair has passed for a long time, no one should pay attention to this matter, but it is a good opportunity to ask Hagrid what happened to this incident.

   The three have always been curious as to how Albert could get Buckbeak out of thin air and hide the Hippogriff.

  Hermione also asked Professor McGonagall, however, the Vanishing Charm obviously couldn't do that, at least Professor McGonagall couldn't.

   After a brief discussion, the three decided to go to Hagrid after dinner, so as not to catch mice and make them have no time to eat, it is not fun to be hungry at night.

  Hermione finds Albert who is eating, "Going to see Hagrid?"

   "I still have something to do. I'll go there later." Albert gave Lee Jordan, who was about to say something, a shut-up look and continued to eat.

   After the three of Harry were far away, Albert turned his head and asked Lee Jordan, "How is your Patronus Charm doing?"

   "It's done," said Lee Jordan proudly puffing out his chest.

  Fred and George joked: "It must be an orangutan!"

   "Yes, it's the orangutan." Lee Jordan was a little depressed, but Albert really guessed right.

   "Badly caught up." Albert muttered.

   "Catch what?" Lee Jordan asked in confusion.

   "The last plan, is it about to start?" George asked in a low voice, he thought it might be because of this, that's why Albert asked Lee Jordan if he had mastered the Patronus Charm.

   "When will it start?" Fred was not stupid, and immediately guessed what was going on after being reminded by George.

   "Later," said Albert.

   "Wait?" Lee Jordan was still a little stunned. He couldn't figure out what was going on right now. Could it be that the plan to arrest the black dog Blake was about to start?

  "You think that guy is hiding with Hagrid now?"

  George was the most attentive of the three and immediately realized what Albert once said, Pettigrew Peter's Animagus might be a mouse.

   Where the valuable old mouse is hiding is self-evident.

  So, Albert asked Hermione to take the cat to Hagrid, intending to use the cat named K to force Peter Pettigrew out.

   Then, lead the black dog Blake through Peter the mouse, so that they can be wiped out.

  Just, does this really work?

   Such thoughts were quickly suppressed by the three of them. Albert was very shrewd and never did anything unsure. Just look at the escape of the hippogriff a while ago.

   "I remember Professor Lupin as if..." Fred said in a low voice.

   "Today is a full moon," Albert reminded.

  Professor Lupin was probably in his office at this time, waiting to get through the painful stage of becoming a werewolf.

  "Okay, that's right!"

   The three looked at each other and nodded to show that they understood.

   Actually, Fred, George, and Lee Jordan all got it wrong. It wasn't that they matched Albert's prediction, but that Albert planned to directly turn the prediction into reality.

  "You go back and prepare first, use this to stare at the three of Harry, now is not the time for us to play."

  "Where are you going?" George asked in confusion, taking the parchment and three strange badges. "And what's this?"

  "This thing can block the tracking of the Marauder's map."

   "I just said that I couldn't find Albert's date before. It turns out that this guy already knew how to block the Marauder's map." George put the map in his pocket and gave Frey the badge. Germany and Lee Jordan.

  Albert intends to go to Professor Lupin, give him some hints, and talk about the recovery of the Werewolf Charm by the way.

   Professor Lupin was sitting behind his desk enjoying dinner when he rang the Defense Against the Dark Arts office.

   "Anything? Mr. Anderson." Lupin was surprised that someone was now looking for him.

  "Well, there is something." Albert looked at Professor Lupin, who was slightly pale, and said straight to the point: "Professor, have you heard of the Restoring Humanoid Charm?

   "What kind of magic is that?" Lupin looked at Albert suspiciously, he had realized that the other party had obviously other things to come to him at this time.

  Albert calmly introduced: "A spell that can help werewolves restore their human form."

  Professor Lupin's face instantly turned ugly. He knew what Albert meant by saying this. The other party obviously knew his werewolf's identity, but he was relieved quickly. Albert was too smart. Observing the time of his leave, it is not difficult to infer this. The other party came to persuade him to leave early last time, and there may be some reasons for this.

  "Is there really such a spell?" Lupin put down his fork and asked gently, "I still haven't heard a spell like that, otherwise the werewolves wouldn't be so terrifying to everyone."

   "Gilderoy Lockhart mentioned the Restoration Charm in Wandering with the Werewolves."

   "That's just a novel, and I heard..." Lupin ended up not calling Gilderoy Lockhart a liar in front of Albert.

   However, Albert had no such estimate, and shrugged: "Yes, he is a liar, and likes to turn other people's stories into his own."

  Lupin opened his mouth in shock at Albert's astonishing words, not knowing what to say for a while.

   "The Restoration Charm did once exist, and an old Armenian wizard used it to deal with the Wagga Wagga werewolves in Australia." Albert looked at Professor Lupin, who was dazed, and continued: "It's just that the old wizard Because of Lockhart's relationship, a large part of his memory has been cleaned up, and now he has become a little silly."

   "So, the spell is lost." Lupin felt that Gilderoy Lockhart was entirely to blame for what happened.

   "Well, I got the old wizard's notes from Lockhart last year and recreated this spell, but I haven't tested the spell's effect on a werewolf." Albert said that he came here reason.

  Lupin was silent, he finally knew what Albert was doing with him now, he was going to experiment with himself!

  Although Lupin didn't like this kind of thing, he didn't immediately reject Albert's proposal. He knew the importance of restoring the humanoid spell, and that spell was really important to werewolves.

   could make a dangerous werewolf harmless if it worked.

   As for the wolf poison potion, that thing is too expensive, and the werewolves simply cannot afford it.

   At this time, someone knocked on the door of the Defense Against the Dark Arts office, interrupting the brief conversation between the two.

   "Come in," Lupin exclaimed.

  The door opened, and Snape walked in, holding a steaming goblet in his hand, and when he saw Albert, he couldn't help squinting.

   "Ah, thanks, Severus." Lupin smiled at Snape. "Will you put it on the desk?"

  Snape put down the steaming glass, looked back and forth between Albert and Lupin, pursed his lips, and said softly, "You should drink it straight, Lupin."

   "I'll drink it, after dinner," Lupin said.

  "If I were you, I wouldn't be here for too long." Snape reminded Albert when he exited the room, "I think you must know the reason."

   Watching the door closed again, Albert withdrew his gaze, glanced at the goblet Snape brought to Professor Lupin, and said softly, "Wolf Venom Potion, if you drink too much of this stuff, it will harm you. Harmful to the body, and a small reduction in life expectancy?"

   "You know?" Lupin asked curiously.

   "Of course I know, I have participated in the improvement of the wolf venom potion." Albert said unbelievably calmly, "This thing was originally too expensive and too difficult, so basically no one paid attention to it. , after several generations of improvements, the price of this thing has been reduced by more than half compared to the original, and it is easier to cook, and the effect is quite objective, that is, the toxicity of the medicine is relatively large, which will cause bad effects on the body. "

   Don't look at the wolf poison potion that can make a werewolf harmless and sane, but the potion itself is also poisonous.

  Albert, as the improver of the wolf poison potion, is naturally very clear about this matter. Once this thing is drunk too much, it is harmful to the body, and what is even worse is that this thing is too expensive.

   "Oh, I almost forgot, you are still the champion of the Magic School Potions Championship." Lupin's expression soon returned to normal, and he now finally understood why many professors pushed Albert so much.

   "However, to be honest. This stuff is really hard to drink." Professor Lupin couldn't help but complain.

   "Because this thing was not originally used for drinking." Albert said in a strange tone: "This thing is used to get the Merlin Medal, you said that a few werewolves can really afford such an expensive magic Even if it is an improved wolf venom, the price is still not affordable for ordinary people.”

   "You're right." Lupin nodded, feeling that what Albert said was really reasonable, he suddenly asked, "What about the Restoring Humanoid Charm?"

   "It's a very complex spell, and it belongs to the advanced transformation field." Albert said calmly: "I'll be honest, many friends think I should take this opportunity to get the Merlin Medal. ."

   Still for the Order of Merlin?

  Lupin was silent.

   However, in fact, he didn't think there was anything wrong with this.

  "Really a mature student."

   Lupin, who was sitting behind his desk, couldn't help showing a wry smile. In fact, he had nothing to refuse, and his intuition told him that he should agree to Albert's suggestion, even if the other party had clearly gone for the Merlin Medal , but this is very true, and it cannot deny the importance of restoring the humanoid spell.

   "Are you going to try this spell on me now?" Professor Lupin asked rhetorically.

   "Certainly not now, I won't take the risk." Albert stood up and said, "Wait for the summer vacation, if you're willing to help, consider it a job and I'll pay you A very rich Galleon."

  It is normal for Lupin to hesitate, after all, he was using himself as an experiment, even if Albert said that the spell would be harmless even if it failed, and was willing to give a large sum of Galleons to thank him for his cooperation.

   "If you are willing to help, I can also tell you another secret that I discovered a while ago, a secret that may be related to Black." Albert said mysteriously when Lupin didn't speak.

   "What secret?" Lupin agreed.

   "I once saw the name Peter in Hogwarts Castle." Albert was astonishing.

  "What."

  Lupin stood up in surprise.

   "That thing is actually very useful. You confiscated Potter's Marauder's map, and you probably don't want him to seek revenge on Black!" Albert looked at the workman who was placed beside Lupin with a half-smiling smile. Point the map, before Lupin said, "I used the Marauder's map before he was given to Harry. I saw Peter's name at school, and as far as I know, Blake killed one. A wizard named Peter."

   "Thank you," Lupin said gratefully.

  "You're welcome."

  After Albert turned to leave, Lupin didn't care about eating anymore, picked up the Marauder's map and carefully screened the name Peter in the castle, but he couldn't find Peter's name among the many names.

  Peter has left Hogwarts?

  Shouldn't, if Black was still blocking him outside, he would never have escaped the castle.

  Lupin slumped back into his chair when he saw Harry, Ron, and Hermione sneaking out of the castle to Hagrid's hunting lodge.

  Professor Lupin frowned ~IndoMTL.com~ staring at the Marauder's map in his hand, and checked the side again, he didn't think Albert would deceive himself, or play himself, because there was no need for it, nor won't do that.

   I must have missed something.

What will    be?

   Lupin regretted that he didn't ask clearly, he felt that Albert must know some secrets.

  "If Peter is really alive..." Lupin was very confused, he knew he had to do something, maybe he should confess everything to Dumbledore.

   However, Lupin was afraid that Dumbledore would know that he had failed him, and that guilt would completely eat into his heart.

  "Be brave, you should be brave Lupin, don't run away."

   Lupin slapped himself in the face and murmured, "Harry has no family, he can't lose his godfather anymore.

  Lupin decided to wait until tomorrow to get back on his own, then go to Albert, the other party must know something, he must find out if Peter is really alive, and then go to Dumbledore and tell what he knows Confess to the other party that only Dumbledore can help Black out of trouble.
