Chapter 573: Facing Voldemort

~7 min read 1,214 words

Lupin looked at the parchment, and the words of Messrs. Moony, Prongs, Padfoot, and Wormtail were shining on the paper.

A strange, secretive expression appeared on his face, which was then covered by a deep emotion.

He had experienced too much today. Sometimes he would feel that the appearance of the young wizards was like a surprising accident.

Green Bookstore…… perhaps being the manager here for a lifetime wouldn't be bad.

"Interesting map, what is its function."

Lupin asked with a smile.

Now it was Sien's turn to have a strange expression. Although he could understand, hearing this sentence from Mr. Moony was still a bit……

"Hmm, it can help us find some secret passages. It will also show the names and locations of everyone at Hogwarts……"

Listening to the young wizard explain the content, Lupin nodded while laughing.

Finally, Sien tucked the parchment away, and his figure gradually blurred.

Lupin looked outside, but a figure in the wind and snow became clearer and clearer.

"Mr. Lupin."

It was Jia Siting.

"Mr. Finnigan."

Lupin was somewhat surprised.

This returning blonde young wizard's robes were covered in snowflakes.

"Sien is the smartest among us, he trusts you…… he always trusts someone easily.

But I hope you know, trust is a choice, a courage, a…… non-renewable resource."

After Jia Siting finished this sentence, he turned and left.

He didn't know much about werewolves, almost all through today's cramming.

But he clearly knew that for a poor and terrible creature like a werewolf, how easy it is to fall into darkness.

Perhaps only Sien would trust without reason that this wizard named Lupin is the bright moon rising in the dark night.

……

Three Broomsticks pub.

Sien waited quietly for Jia Siting. He said he was going to buy some candy, but the direction he went wasn't Honeydukes.

On the greasy table were two glasses of butterbeer with white foam overflowing. Speaking of which, Three Broomsticks has a feature that young wizards love—they sell butterbeer to young wizards.

This is also a tradition formed because of the poor water quality in the UK.

There were many people in the pub now. Sien huddled in the corner, trying to make himself in a state that was easily ignored.

The reason he did this was also simple: dear Professor Professor Professor Fuliwei was sleeping soundly in a dim place.

Sien silently finished the butterbeer, felt his body warm up, and began to think about Lupin's matter—

Peter Pettigrew was still hiding beside Luo En, and Sirius Black, who had imprisoned himself for twelve years alone, was still gaunt……

Sien thought silently, and the plan became clearer and clearer.

However, before that, perhaps he could learn some spells from Mr. Lupin—like the Patronus Charm.

After a while, the doorbell rang. Sien saw Jia Siting's red face frozen by the cold. Jia Siting was about to speak, but saw Sien shake his head.

He scanned the inside of the pub and his eyes widened immediately.

This is…… Professor Professor Professor Fuliwei?

They were right under the professor's nose……

The two left in a hurry. Before leaving, Sien also silently transformed a blanket to cover the professor.

After they left, the drunken Professor Professor Professor Fuliwei seemed to have woken up, and the corners of his mouth lifted.

Who is the founder of Green Bookstore? It's still a bit hard to guess.

……

Hogwarts Castle seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep.

Only one window was still lit.

Minerva Marcus Marcus Maige walked into the room covered in wind and snow. Entering the range of the fire, the white, fluffy chestnut-like snowflakes slowly dissolved.

Since the Chamber of Secrets incident, she fully realized that a certain young wizard was not as law-abiding as he appeared. When he decided to do something, those rules he had always followed would become non-existent.

It made people feel a bit angry and helpless.

Perhaps Marcus is right; this child is like her…… when she was young.

On Minerva Marcus Marcus Maige's desk was an Animagus registration form.

She put the form inside the drawer, her eyebrows twisted, and finally sighed deeply.

Since this summer vacation, time had dragged on for a long time……

A day in late November.

The grounds outside the castle were still covered with thick snow, and fine water droplets condensed on the windows of the greenhouse. Sien couldn't see the scene outside the window when he was in Herbology class.

Today, there weren't many classes on Ravenclaw's schedule: only one Herbology class, one Transfiguration class, and one Herbology class.

And Gryffindor looked very terrible; they had to face two consecutive Potions classes and one Defense Against the Dark Arts class.

Harry and Luo En were miserable all day. After finishing Potions class, they were dazed, like Lupin when Sien first saw him, pale and sickly.

"Is it really useful, Harry."

Luo En asked Harry, walking tiredly on the fourth floor, trying to cheer up.

"That's the problem, Luo En, if this continues, we will die before Lockhart."

Harry was deducted thirty points in one day. To be honest, he had never heard of anyone being deducted this many points just for attending class.

The points they earned in the Chamber of Secrets facing Tom Riddle were all deducted by a large chunk.

The two walked in a hurry, all the way to the center of the fourth-floor corridor, and finally bowed down before a black cat statue.

"Save me, Mr. Black Cat, Professor Snape has gone crazy with deducting points……"

Harry had a bitter face, extremely pious.

"Yeah, five points for putting a glass rod in the cauldron, five points for not preheating the glass cup on the table……"

Luo En seemed to recall some unforgettable scenes, and his head was still dizzy until now.

"Look, this is the trick for Mr. Potter to see the Castle Spirit Cat in his dreams!"

Hannah said excitedly to a circle of young wizards.

Harry and Luo En came and bowed, extremely pious, which really surprised the wizards.

Ginny stared at Harry's side profile, and after a while, she also joined the team.

When Sien passed by here holding potions, he could only see a circle of young wizards surrounding the statue and worshipping, as if they were holding some strange ceremony.

He walked away quickly, and even the joy of Soul Transfiguration reaching 【Expert】 was reduced quite a bit.

The Castle Spirit Cat Club was now the largest club at Hogwarts.

Originally, the number of club members was limited, but Headmaster Dumbledore would sign his approval as soon as he saw the expansion application for the Castle Spirit Cat Club, which once fueled the exuberant enthusiasm of the young wizards.

If this couldn't prove the important existence of the great Castle Spirit Cat, then what could?

And Sien just had a little more understanding of Headmaster Dumbledore's character of watching the fun. He turned into a corner, and the plan map floated out.

The map appearance on it suddenly disappeared completely, turning into a portrait map full of mist, and the 【Harry】 part was flashing a red exclamation mark.

Sien knew that the plan had been advancing steadily, and today was the day he would face Voldemort…… fragile soul. ===== CHAPTER 574 =====
