Harry Potter and the Secret Treasures

Chapter 184: Hiring Lupin

Professor Lupin was covered in wind and dust and servants. The old robe was covered with dust. He looked thinner than the previous days, with a deep shadow under his eyes, but a smile on his face.

Seeing Lupin, Ivan, Harry and Hermione suddenly climbed out of their beds and shouted with joy, "Professor! ”

“Good afternoon, Harry; good afternoon, Evan; good afternoon, Hermione!” Lupin said with a slight smile.

“Professor, yesterday I heard Hagrid say they locked you up in Azkaban, and those monsters didn't do anything to you, did they?” Harry asked eagerly.

“I'm fine, Harry!” Lupin's gaze slipped across Harry, Evan, and Hermione, "in fact, I want to thank the three of you. Thanks to your efforts, I was able to get out of there so quickly. ”

“You were innocent, and Ron only made accusations when Peter Pettigrew in control. ”

“Peter the dwarf!” Lupin repeated, his face flashed with regret, he slowly closed his eyes and opened them immediately, gloomy said, "I saw Sirius in the Ministry of Magic, he and Dumbledore told me everything, I shouldn't have suspected him, I actually thought he had betrayed James and Lily..."

Speaking of Harry's parents, nobody spoke, and the atmosphere was slightly heavier.

“Professor, I successfully summoned my patron saint last night, a stag!” It took a while for Harry to whisper.

“When your father deforms, he always turns into a stag.” Lupin smiled again, "you guessed correctly, Harry, so we called him a pointed fork. ”

“But there was a guardian god there, a deer. ”

“Deer?!” Lu Ping stunned for a moment and didn't seem to react.

“That deer, I mean, would he be my mother...”

“Lily's patron saint is indeed a deer.” Lupin looked at Harry with concern, "I told you once that the shape of the Guardian God varies from person to person and is related to the character of the Wizard and the inner world. You know, the Guardian God is not always the same, and when he is hit hard and his emotions change dramatically, he changes. ”

“What do you mean? ”

“Harry, that patron god you saw couldn't be Lily.” Lupin continued, "I don't know who summoned it, but that man must have something to do with Lily. Otherwise, his patron saint cannot be a deer! ”

In fact, hearing Harry's description of the Deer Guardian, Lupin thought of Snape, perhaps his Guardian. Lupin more or less knew something between Lily and Snape, they came from the same place before coming to Hogwarts for school, Lily and Snape used to be very good, just later...

Lu Ping hesitated for a moment and finally didn't say anything.

In his view, some things weren't right for Harry to know.

Besides, he doesn't deserve that. James and Lily should have let Sirius Black say that he was Harry's godfather.

Harry, who was bowing his head and not noticing Lupin's strange reaction, looked confused, tried to think, who could be related to his mother?

Was Snape the only one here?

Harry knew that he had a bad relationship with his father when he was a student, just as he and Malfoy looked at each other.

From what I've learned, Snape hates his father.

As for Snape's relationship with his own mother, Harry doesn't know, and he thinks there's no intersection between the two of them.

It doesn't seem that way now.

But even if Snape summoned the patron saint, Ivan wouldn't expect him to be just and kind to himself. Snape saved himself in the first grade, but his attitude to himself became worse afterwards. Dumbledore once said that because he felt that it would make him equal to his father and that he owed no one, and then he could reasonably regain his hatred for his father.

Harry didn't go into it at the time, but now he wants to come and feels a little wrong, and Snape's relationship with his parents seems very complicated.

He tried to think about it, but it caused him a severe headache and he had to think less.

Harry looked up and heard Hermione say, “Professor, is Sirius okay? When will he be back? ”

“He's in good shape, but he'll have to wait a while to see you.” Wesengamo has initiated special trial proceedings and should deliver a final verdict by Christmas, "said Lupin. Now that you've got Peter and Dumbledore, you don't have to worry about him. ”

“And you, Professor?!” Harry asked, “I just heard Dumbledore say you quit, didn't you? ”

“I'm afraid I did, Harry! ”

“Why didn't you attack Ron? ”

“This has nothing to do with whether I attacked Ron or not, and as you should see these two days, the parents of the students are reluctant to have werewolves teach their children. I think they're right, I might bite any one of you... and this can never happen again. ”

“Don't go, Professor! You are the best Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher we have ever taught!” Harry shouted loudly, and Ivan and Hermione rushed to endorse it.

Lupin shook his head and didn't speak.

As Harry thought of a reason for him to stay, Lupin continued, "Harry, Evan, Hermione, the days I taught Hogwarts were a joy I could never forget. If there's anything that makes me proud, it's you, the three of you, the best students I've ever taught. ”

Professor! ”

“Well, it's late, I should go back and pack.” Professor Lupin rubbed his tears in the corner with his hands.

“Wait, Professor!” Ivan hurriedly stopped Lupin, "after you left Hogwarts, any plans? ”

“I guess I'll keep looking for my next job.” Lou Ping smiled bitterly on his face, "don't worry about me. ”

Lupin's heart was bitter and, as a werewolf, no one should be willing to hire him except Dumbledore.

He also doesn't know where he should go, and after Sirius washes away his grievances, maybe he can move in with him for a while and figure something out.

Lupin didn't say these things, there's no need to tell Ivan, Harry, Hermione.

“Professor, you know I run Hogwarts Magic, and I'm going to expand this newspaper to sell all sorcerers in the magic world, and change it to one issue a day.” Evanhee looks at Lupin, "but I don't have enough time, and I'd like you to manage it for me if you can. ”

Ivan elaborated on his thoughts, and Lupin seemed stunned, and he was silent for a long time before he could believe he asked, "Are you going to hire me? ”

“Exactly!” Ivan nodded.

“Manage a newspaper?” Lupin continued to ask.

“Yes.” Ivan ordered again, smiling.

Seeing Lupin's reaction, Harry and Hermione beside him laughed, and if Ivan hired Lupin, they could still see him more often later.

“Say yes, professor!” Harry and Hermione said.

“But I didn't have any relevant experience before?” Lupin hesitated.

“I trust you, Professor, you will do the job. ”
