Hogwarts Defense Against the Dark Arts Professor Peter

Chapter 146 Luna Lovegood
Christine Evan stood up politely and bowed to Snape, "Yes, Mr. Dean."

He calmly stared at Snape's furious face, with a smile on his lips, neither the fear of facing his teacher nor the timidity of a duel in public.

Peter looked at the third-year student with great interest. He knew that this student was good at some shady black magic, and he was actually not outstanding in magic engraving and other aspects.

The other three Slytherin students also stood up and walked to the middle of the classroom. Professor Flitwick smiled softly at them, and went back to sit on the sofa by the fireplace.

Among the three students, Zabini and Nott looked confident, but Malfoy was pale and tried to avoid Snape's gaze. Peter knew why he was timid, and less than a week ago, he almost died indirectly at Snape hand.

The other students were a little jealous of Christine Evan and exchanged glances. Harry and Hermione were eager to try, but Ron shook his head like a drum.

"Ron?" Hermione urged him angrily, "You shouldn't be afraid, don't you want to give Gryffindor points?"

Ron pointed to Neville, who was sitting on the side with his head bowed. Harry and Hermione nodded, and immediately understood that each group consisted of four people. Neville and the three of them were in a group. He obviously didn't want to go up to the duel.

"Is there any group of classmates who would like to compete with the Slytherins?" Peter asked.

Snape sarcastically said: "Let me say, let Seamus Finnigan come, his destructive power is very suitable for Mr. Evan, I heard a reliable rumor that Finnigan was in the first potion class It blew up the basement classroom and killed me by the way."

Seamus, who was ridiculed by the ridicule, lowered his head angrily, and several dangerous sparks spewed out from the wand tightly clenched in his hand. Several students were amused by this harsh joke. They covered their mouths and let out a chirping laugh , Luna Lovegood laughed directly.

"Miss Lovegood seems to have very strong emotions that cannot be fully expressed..." Snape said slowly.

When Snape called her name, Luna smiled even more happily. After she calmed down a little, she stood up and said, "Professor Snape, may I ask you to be killed by Mr. Finnigan and then by Professor Dumbledore?" An Inferi? My dad mentioned this idea in The Quibbler: Hogwarts castle not only hides berserk werewolves, but also Inferi.”

Luna's expression was very serious when she asked the question, and she looked at Snape sincerely with her clear eyes, without the slightest bit of joking, but this made all the students laugh out loud. She always believed in such illogical Some students muttered "crazy girl Luna" in private.

Snape didn't speak for a while, apparently brewing a storm of anger, his heaving chest and the throbbing blood vessels on his forehead proved that he was not made into a living corpse by Dumbledore.

Peter stepped forward quickly, interrupting Snape's burst of chanting, "Miss Lovegood, imagination can go ahead, but you can't go offline..."

Sitting below, Hermione sighed heavily. She was extremely rational and couldn't figure out how there could be people like Lovegood (and Trelawney) in the world.

"This might be Ravenclaw..." Hermione whispered.

But Luna didn't sit down, she said righteously: "Professor Peddie, this is not my imagination, I have a lot of evidence." As she spoke, she flipped out a copy of "The Quibbler", flipping it anxiously, "first--"

Peter waved his hand hurriedly, motioning for Luna to sit down, Luna frowned tightly, troubled that no one listened to her seriously.

"Miss Lovegood, we're having a meeting right now, and we'll talk about it later, okay?"

He glanced back at Snape, Snape was still standing there, his lips were blue from anger, his scarred face was even more hideous than usual, Peter could understand his anger - he was regarded as a living corpse by others because of his horrific appearance , anyone would be angry, let alone the moody Snape.

Peter whispered to him, "Go and sit by the fireplace and have a rest. This is just a child's joke. Luna didn't mean it. The child always likes such unfounded rumors. She still believes that Batimir Crouch has eight hundred teeth!"

Professor Flitwick also stepped forward, "Since our two deans are here today, why don't you ask Ravenclaw House to perform, Luna, how about your group coming up to compete with the Slytherin students? ?”

The other three senior Ravenclaw students rolled their eyes. They reluctantly accepted Luna to join after being singled out. Now they all feel that they have been dragged down by the crazy girl Luna. refused to stand up.

Peter didn't ask "Who is Miss Lovegood's teammate?" He knew very well that they must have reluctantly allowed Luna to join, and asking further questions would definitely hurt Luna's self-esteem.

He felt like he was wrestling with this embarrassing situation, with the angry Snape on the one hand, and the disgusted Luna on the other...

At this moment, Ginny Weasley, a beautiful red-haired girl whom Peter hadn't noticed before, raised her hand. She is Ron's younger sister, one year younger than Ron, and at the same level as Luna.

"Professor, I can team up with Luna." She said generously.

"It's okay, please come up." Peter said with a smile and stretched out his hand.

So Ginny took Luna to the center of the classroom, and the two stood opposite the four Slytherin students. The two slender girls faced the four boys. There was a stark contrast in height alone, but their expressions were different. Very calm.

Ginny glanced at the students. To be precise, she was shooting at her two older brothers, Ron and Fred. As for Percy, everyone knew that he would definitely not be able to do anything for someone who slandered the Ministry of Magic. Crazy girl" came out.

Fred stood up grinning, and drew out his wand briskly, but Ron glanced at Harry and then at Hermione, as if he couldn't make up his mind, he was afraid that he would lose face if he couldn't beat Slytherin, and he was afraid of being laughed at." With the mad girl Luna."

Nott snorted, and looked at the two third-grade girls contemptuously. Draco was not as domineering and defiant as before, and he didn't show anything special.

Ginny brushed her red hair, shook her head, and gave the Slytherin students the same look of disdain. Harry sat next to Ron and looked straight at him for some reason.

"Ron, let me help Ginny..." Harry said, standing up.

Ron frowned: "Harry?"

Hermione watched as Harry walked forward with his chest up, touching his chin with a comprehending expression.

Luna, Ginny, Fred, and Harry stood in the middle of the classroom, facing their opponents.

Before starting, Luna said to Snape sincerely: "Professor Snape, don't be angry. Finding a living corpse with a high IQ is one of the important links in solving the rotten tooth conspiracy. Now it seems that the whole thing is I have misunderstood, and I beg your forgiveness..."

Her voice was erratic as usual, and it sounded like it came from another world. She lived in an imaginary world completely, and all external feelings and pains were completely cut off from her.

Luna's clear silver-gray eyes were looking at Snape again, and Professor Flitwick stood on tiptoe and pushed Snape: "Okay, Severus."
