time at hogwarts

256. A unique 'travel'



However, he did not find the twins when he was in the fifth grade for dinner. After asking, he found out that they had no idea what they were busy with recently, and they were generally nowhere to be seen except during class time. ..

Could it be that the Iron Fist is hiding in some secret room and studying justice?

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth. This probably had nothing to do with him. He was just giving a casual opinion. If they failed or failed in the ols exam by then, Mrs. Weasley probably wouldn't chase him with a wand.He thought about it, and from Mrs. Weasley's emphasis on grades and her pride in Percy before school started, he felt that this possibility seemed not low.

I hope you two won't sell me out then.He prayed silently in his mind.

Perhaps after being baptized by the two Defense Against the Dark Arts professors last year and the year before, Magos found that most young wizards no longer had any expectations for this course.Instead, he was particularly interested in whether the new professor could survive this academic year.

"I wonder what Professor Lupine will teach us." Harry felt a little uncomfortable listening to the words of the students around him. Lupine had helped him anyway, and he felt a little disgusted by these remarks.

"It'll be more interesting than Lockhart's," said Ron, sitting down next to Harry and telling them that his mother felt sorry for them now that Lockhart was no longer a professor at Hogwarts.

"I don't know when his new book will be published." Hermione suddenly appeared in the empty seat next to Magos.

Although Ron and Harry were still very curious about Hermione who had been disappearing for the past two days, they silently put their doubts back in their minds after being scolded several times. ..

"After last year's course, you are still interested in him." Magos thought that Hermione must have a deep hatred for people who pretend to be knowledgeable despite being unlearned. Why did she still care about his books?

Hermione rolled her eyes at him,

"Of course I'm not interested in him, but his novels are really good, and the plots and adventures are clearly not made up. I've asked Professor McGonagall and Professor Flitwick, and all the battle plots in them are very real. , even they may not do better. Maybe his talents are in creation."

Magos complained silently. All his stories, except for the names of the protagonists, were personal experiences of other wizards. Of course, they can withstand scrutiny.

Seeing that the class time has come, but Professor Lupin has not yet come, all the little wizards are discussing with each other with curious faces, and some even wonder if he has quit.

But before they could spread the news, Professor Lupine, wearing patched magic robes, opened the door and strode in.

"Sorry, sorry, I'm late." Lu Ping smiled and walked to the podium, watching the little wizards below starting to turn the pages of the book.

"Don't worry, everyone put their books away. I'm going to show you something interesting in the first lesson."

As he spoke, he waved his hand and asked them to follow him and leave.

"This is a practical class," Hermione asked as she walked a little nervously and expectantly.Flashdance..

"I wonder if it will be more interesting than the Cornish elf that Lockhart showed us last year when Lockhart didn't have any problems."

"Looking at the way he's dressed, I'm afraid it won't work."

"Not necessarily. In some novels, shabby wizards are actually very powerful."

Regardless of whether the little wizards who followed Lupine were praising or belittling, it was undeniable that deep down they were looking forward to this first outdoor practical class.

In this way, Lupine took them from the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom on the second floor to the Muggle Studies classroom next door and said hello to Caredi Bubbaji who was in class. Then the students who were in class inside were surprised. Shi Shiran led the students away with his eyes, and then they passed Professor McGonagall's office, and continued towards other floors under Professor McGonagall's displeased eyes.

This opportunity to wander around the school openly during class was a new experience that they had never had before, especially the envious eyes of the seniors and juniors who were in class made them even more excited.

In this way, Lupine took them all the way to the eighth floor, then returned directly to the first floor through a hidden corridor, and then stopped at the door of the faculty lounge.

During this period, they met the prankster Peeves, the evil-eyed Filch, Professor Flitwick who was teaching the new students, and Professor Snape, who seemed to know Professor Lupine but had a poor relationship.

"Why haven't I seen that corridor just now? Magos, do you have any records on it?" Harry quietly walked to Magos and asked.

Magos knew that Harry was referring to the Marauder's Map, having just had a flashback when Lupine led them down that corridor.

"No, that road is not on the map." He replied softly.

"It's unbelievable that there are secret passages it doesn't know about." Ron also sighed with emotion.

"It's normal," Hermione said, not finding anything strange about this.

"It was also invented by others. It is not unusual to miss a path intentionally or accidentally."

As they discussed the secret passage, the other little wizards fell into uncontrollable excitement, as if they had returned to the sense of anticipation they had when they first came to Hogwarts for the Defense Against the Dark Arts class. At that time, everyone was extremely curious about the interesting thing Lupine said.

"Very good." Lupine stood at the door of the lounge and looked at the lively little wizards and said with a smile.

"It seems that you are all interested and curious now." Then his expression changed and he said in a slightly gloomy tone.

"Then, next we will face a dark magical creature that no one has ever seen its true face."

Lupine's tone made the little wizards who were in a state of excitement feel their hearts sink, and they looked at each other and put away their smiles.

"It is a shape-shifter that lives in dark and narrow places. It will transform into the thing that is most feared by those who meet it. No one knows its shape because no one has seen its true form. According to rumors, he seems to be based on human beings. Feeding on fear.

Some wizards speculated that many Muggle children may have seen it and thought it might be a ghost hiding under the bed. "

"Ghost" Seamus and Dean took a step back with fearful expressions on their faces.

Hermione listened thoughtfully to Lupine's introduction.

"Could it be a spider?" Ron's face twisted together.

Harry subconsciously thought of Dementors and regretted not going to Lupin earlier to learn the Patronus Charm.

Lupine looked at the scared expressions of the little wizards and suddenly laughed.

"Maybe someone knows what dark magical creature I'm talking about." As soon as she finished speaking, Hermione raised her right hand high.

"But I think it's more interesting to face it with questions. Clever Miss Granger, come and tell you the answer, just tell me."

Hermione trotted up to Lupine and whispered her answer.Lupine smiled and nodded.

"Very well, you've earned five points for Gryffindor. Has anyone else guessed now? Whoever it is gets five points for your house."

"Why didn't she tell us so we could all get points?" Mr. Dean complained.

"You think Professor Lupin is just for show." Magos patted him on the shoulder wordlessly, and then walked to the front. If he hadn't been deducted five points because of it in the morning, he wouldn't be too lazy to stand out.
