Chapter 571: Mr. Moony

Inside the cottage.

Lupin opened the door quickly.

At the door, the blonde young wizard was carrying gift boxes of all sizes, while the black-haired young wizard was directing them to float in the air.

"Good morning, Mr. Lupin."

Sien glanced at the room; Lupin's luggage was very little, not even enough to fill a wardrobe compartment.

So he directed some things to be stuffed in. The gifts from him and Jia Siting added up to half-full.

"Welcome to move in, Mr. Lupin."

Jia Siting was always enthusiastic. He took a set of magical kitchenware—a spoon that stirred itself, a cauldron with precise heat control—and placed them on the stove in the cottage, filling the empty stove.

"Good morning, gentlemen."

The two who suddenly broke in broke the quietness of the cottage.

It instantly became lively here.

"However, what are you doing?"

Lupin said while opening a gray, dusty jar,

"I'm afraid I only have tea bags……"

He put the tea into a kettle that sprayed steam before boiling water. Sien noticed his complexion was much better.

"You didn't know?"

Jia Siting's original enthusiasm paused. He carefully observed this haggard man,

"Housewarming party, sir."

"Ah,"

This seemed to be a very distant word. Lupin's calm demeanor paused slightly, as if he were searching for the meaning of this word from his memory.

After a few seconds of silence, he spoke slowly,

"Thank you, gentlemen."

Perhaps it was because he had drifted for too long, or perhaps he hadn't communicated with anyone for a long time.

Lupin didn't say anything else.

The silence didn't end until the sound of the kettle boiling rang out.

"What should one do at a party?"

Lupin said gently, handing Sien and Jia Siting a cup of tea, the cup having a chip in it.

"Nothing, sir, a sumptuous dinner?

…… Are you reading this book? The time for organizing was too long ago, and I can't quite remember the content inside,"

Jia Siting smiled, and the topic naturally revolved around "Green's Notes."

The three sat in front of the roaring fire, slowly flipping through the exquisitely packaged notes, occasionally discussing details of magical history, and writing down interesting character biographies in the notes.

During this process, Lupin displayed a profound knowledge base. Compared to him, Jia Siting felt completely like a student.

Even though he had revised and organized the entire set of "Green's Notes."

Only Sien could keep up with Lupin's rhythm, occasionally proposing insights from different angles.

From the silent Levitation Charm cast by the young wizard when entering the door, to the current in-depth insights into magical history and extensive knowledge coverage—

He even knew that in 1792, a Cockatrice went on a rampage during the Triwizard Tournament, and three headmasters, including the Hogwarts headmaster, were injured by this deadly creature.

Lupin felt completely surprised.

"Gentlemen, at your age, I'm afraid I was far from as outstanding as you……"

Lupin said with a smile. These were two students any teacher would like.

Extensive coverage, strong thirst for knowledge, and what was rare was that they still maintained awe and desire for knowledge.

This would remind him of his time at Hogwarts no matter what.

…… After the hiding days ended, Headmaster Dumbledore accepted him into Hogwarts.

Three friends noticed his disappearance once a month. Even though he made various excuses—saying his family was sick and he had to go home to visit, etc……

He harbored fear, fear that they would leave if they knew he was a werewolf. But they just thought of a way after tossing and turning for several nights, making his transformation period not only easier but also the best time of his life.

——They learned to be Animagi.

The three of them were once his everything. Even full of guilt toward Headmaster Dumbledore, he only restrained his friends' actions and turned a blind eye to their destruction.

Facts proved that sticking to principles for friends requires more courage than sticking to principles for enemies.

But later, after Voldemort rose to power……

Everything he had collapsed; his only three friends, two dead and one imprisoned.

Lupin thought of the nights in the past, from Headmaster Dumbledore's visit to friends who didn't mind him being a werewolf.

He suddenly realized how similar this day was to the past.

"Mr. Lupin, you are a werewolf, right?"

At this moment, Jia Siting's words broke the peace of the cottage.

Facing this question again, Lupin, who should have been used to it long ago and calm, was dazed for a moment.

"Yes, Mr. Finnigan, you are the smartest young wizard I have ever seen."

Lupin closed his eyes.

He didn't know when he was exposed. Or rather, in Hogsmeade, his identity exposure had a high possibility—he had looked for work here several times, and the residents here had long suspected him;

But he also knew that meeting a young wizard who could accept a werewolf was already extremely rare.

Sien's head poked out from behind the book introducing Ilvermorny School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. He watched Jia Siting take out a potion from the Undetectable Extension Bag.

He understood the reason why the other party was running around in Diagon Alley without stopping. ===== CHAPTER 572 =====
