Chapter 825

~6 min read 1,125 words

Darren took the chocolate Hermione handed him and bit into it. Finally, after they finished talking, Madam Pomfrey also came out. She looked surprised to see Darren wake up so quickly.

Darren heard her muttering about wanting Snape to improve the potion.

They seemed to want to create a potion that would make Darren sleep all the time except when he was in class.

Darren felt that if he weren't strong, he would definitely have been angered to death by Snape and Madam Pomfrey.

Fortunately, they clearly couldn't do that.

So he happily followed Harry and the others out of the hospital wing.

The heat and the end of exams meant that the students in the castle had all gone to Hogsmeade.

Now there were almost no students in the castle.

Darren ate with Harry and the others at the dining table for a while, but finally got tired of it.

They ended up sitting on the lawn outside the castle, by the Black Lake. When Darren was in his second year, he had caused an accident here.

Which led to no one coming here for a long time.

However, after the third year started, it became a leisure place for students again because of the comfortable environment.

Usually, it was very difficult to find a spot to lie down and sunbathe here, but today, they easily occupied the best spot.

Just as they were watching the squid in the Black Lake floating lazily and talking about everything that happened last night.

Hagrid came over.

He was still holding a flagon of wine in his hand.

When he saw them, Hagrid was extremely happy.

"Oh, Darren, Harry, Ron, and Hermione, hello!

I must tell you some good news, so you don't have to be sad about it... Of course, I know Sirius Black escaped last night.

But I believe the Ministry of Magic will catch him as soon as possible, and the Dementors have also been withdrawn..."

Darren and the others laughed; they all knew why Hagrid was happy.

Sure enough, Hagrid continued: "Yesterday, after you left, Buck ran away... It must be that I didn't tie the rope well.

But Buck is also too smart. Darren, I thought about it all night before I figured out why Buck hadn't been too sad before.

It must have been prepared for this all along."

Hagrid said with certainty.

Seeming to believe firmly that Buckbeak was very smart.

This made Darren almost laugh out loud.

Of course, this time he didn't hide it, because this was a happy thing to begin with.

Hagrid drank a few more gulps of wine.

"This morning, I was still worried about whether Lupin had met it in the Forbidden Forest. After all, Lupin turning into a werewolf might eat it... Oh, Darren, don't look at me with that 'I've discovered a big secret' look. Lupin turned into a werewolf in front of many people; this can't be covered up. Now he is already packing his luggage in his office..."

Before Hagrid finished speaking, he saw Darren and the others jump up.

Then they rushed toward the castle.

Hagrid sighed, looked at their backs, and said: "It's no use for you to go over now, after all, no one will be willing to let a werewolf be a professor, and Lupin also showed aggression."

Just as Hagrid was walking toward his hut, Darren and the others had already arrived at Lupin's office.

Lupin's office door was open, and he wasn't surprised by their arrival.

Instead, he came over warmly and hugged Darren.

Then he looked at Harry.

"I've already heard about yesterday's events, and I have to praise your bravery...

Of course, I don't want to praise Darren like this, because he was brave to a fault.

Harry, as his brother, you must keep an eye on him. This year, I have seen many times how recklessly he risks his life!"

Lupin said seriously.

Harry nodded hurriedly.

He agreed with Lupin's words very much; Darren really couldn't be praised for being brave anymore.

Darren curled his lip.

Childish.

Making it seem like if he wasn't praised, he wouldn't cause trouble in the future.

Of course, as a little saint, he naturally revealed an embarrassed expression.

This made Lupin swallow more words.

But it might also be because of Harry.

Because Harry had already remembered Hagrid's words.

He asked worriedly: "You won't leave, will you?"

"Mmph, naturally I will, I have to leave."

"How can that be? Did the Ministry of Magic misunderstand you?

Remus, I'll go find Fudge, I'll go apologize to him, I'll go beg him... No matter what, it's fine.

He must be deliberately retaliating against you because you are my godfather!"

【Ding, Saintly Value +100】

【Ding, Saintly Value +100】

【Ding, Saintly Value +100】

Darren accepted the Saintly Value, and he revealed a guilty, regretful, and sad expression.

This made Lupin feel very warm inside.

He hurriedly explained: "It's not because of you. Dumbledore made the Ministry of Magic believe I was innocent; I was just trying to save you... Mmph, I'm very surprised that you even know about retaliation; I thought you didn't understand much!"

Lupin joked.

Then Harry quickly recounted their encounter with Fudge yesterday.

This made Lupin furious.

"How could he be like this? That's too much... Your parents and brother are heroes, why does he treat you like this?"

Lupin was stunned with anger.

He paced back and forth, losing his temper.

But finally, he came back to his senses, and he looked at Darren sadly and said: "Darren, it's all my fault for not protecting you well; I should have been by your side to take care of you.

But... I can't, I am a werewolf, I will cause many people to look down on you... I'm sorry..."

He was extremely sad.

Although Darren kept saying he didn't care, Lupin remained decadent for a long time.

When he finally came back to his senses, his mood became very bad.

"I'm leaving... leaving this place. Severus, after knowing that nothing happened to me.

He was furious; he told the whole Slytherin house that I was a werewolf...

Yes, maybe in the morning, Darren, you were still sleeping, anyway, now the whole school knows I'm a werewolf.

I have to leave... I actually like it here, I like the feeling of being with you... you guys..."

Lupin's eyes were a little red.

Darren grabbed his sleeve even more sadly.

"Remus, stay... or I can help you find a job in Diagon Alley.

I will go beg them, I will guarantee to them that you are definitely controllable, and I can also brew Wolfsbane Potion..."
