Parents of Hogwarts

"The Quaffle is now in Rabastan's hand. Edgar flies towards him. Oh my God, this is not a light move. Frank interrupts Rabastan's attack with a beautiful Bludger. The ball is caught by Edgar and he quickly passes over it." Slytherin's defense successfully scored and Gryffindor added ten points. Now the scores of both sides are 270 points and they are tied again."

At this time, Karan had returned to his position at the edge of the Forbidden Forest. He silently listened to the commentary coming from far away from the stadium.

It seemed that this game was more stalemate than he thought.

Karan narrowed his eyes, glanced at the castle not far away, and then changed direction directly, giving up his plan to go back now, and walked quickly in another direction outside the castle.

This time, it didn't take long for Karan to stop in front of a shadow.

On the thick trunk, dense willow branches hang down quietly, as if this is just an ordinary willow tree.

Whomping Willow.

Karan stood not far away and looked carefully. Although it was not planted for a long time, the Whomping Willow has begun to take shape. It seems that the full-grown Whomping Willow was transplanted directly.

There are also many knots on the trunk, and it is impossible to tell which one can make the Whomping Willow quiet.

But no matter how many knots there are, they are not as many as the stones on the ground.

Karan walked casually around the Whomping Willow. Whenever he walked in a direction, a medium-sized stone would float up from the air and fly towards the tree trunk.

The dense wicker branches flew suddenly, creaking as if in a strong wind, and whipped back and forth like a whip.

Karan watched this scene expressionlessly. When another stone flew over, the Whomping Willow suddenly stopped moving, as if it had turned into stone, and even the leaves stopped shaking.

The corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and Karan showed a smile that no one noticed.After silently remembering the location of the knot in his heart, Karan successfully walked to the tree trunk and drilled into a hole between the roots.

First, he slid down the earth slope and entered the bottom of a very low tunnel. There was a pitch black area in front of him. Karan took out the ash wood wand and whispered: "Fluorescence flicker."

Light emerged from the tip of the wand. Karan raised the wand in front of him and took advantage of the just-right brightness to walk deeper along the tunnel.

The tunnel continued to extend forward, Karan bent over, and he moved forward very quickly.After an unknown amount of time, the tunnel finally showed some changes and began to slope upward.

After turning a corner, Karan saw a glimmer of light in front of him, which was the exit of the tunnel.

"Knox."

The fluorescence on the head of the staff went out, and Karan, who was hiding under the invisibility cloak, got out of the hole.

Here is a room, a bright but slightly damaged room.The wallpaper was scratched, the furniture looked vandalized, and the windows were boarded up.

This is the Screaming Shack.

Not far away is the village of Hogsmeade.

Although this is the first time Karan has arrived here, he does not seem to be interested in the Hogsmeade village outside the house, but is exploring the house quietly.

There was a door on the right. Karan opened the door through the invisibility cloak, which led to a dark hall.Compared to this room, the foyer suffered much less or almost no damage.

In the foyer, there is a complete staircase.Karan passed a wooden chair and walked up the stairs, holding the wand tightly in his hand and pointing it in the direction in front of him.

On the dark landing, a door stood open, and Karan walked through it without hesitation.

There is a complete four-poster bed in the room with neat curtains hanging on it.

There's no one here.

It seems that Lu Ping is still in the dormitory or the campus hospital.

Callan had long noticed that there was no Remus Lupin among James and his group this morning.

And today also happens to be a full moon night.

Karan glanced at the sky outside the window through the gap. It was only just after noon, and there was still a long time before night.

He raised his eyebrows inadvertently, and instead of doing anything in the room on the second floor, he went straight down the stairs and returned to the first room with the most serious damage.

He stood in place and circled the surrounding furniture. Finally, he walked to the center of the small room, pointed the wand at his mouth, bent down and blew in a circle, while whispering softly.

"Traces appear."

Small clouds of golden mist suddenly burst out from the tip of the wand, gradually filling the entire room with bright colors.

Golden footprints were vaguely visible on the ground. Karan lowered his head to identify them carefully. Judging from the size, they included some adults and some children.

and inhuman footprints.

The footprints didn't look like shoe prints, but more like claws.

More like...werewolf claws.

Callan made his way to a corner of the room through smaller footprints and the obvious junction of paws.

Here, the interlacing traces of the two tracks are the deepest.

Karan stared at it carefully for a while, then he picked a footprint between the two and dropped the ash wand in his hand vertically.

"The original body appears."

he read softly.

The ash wand seemed to stand rigidly, and clusters of golden mist-like light emerged from it again, gradually forming the outline of a figure.

But at the end, the ash wand suddenly fell down, and even the golden mist dissipated.

Karan thought for a moment, picked up the ash wand, carefully wiped off the dust on it, and then placed it in his pocket.

When he took out his hand again, he already held another wand inside.

Elder Wand.

"The original body appears."

Callan cast the spell again and dropped the elder wand vertically.

This time, the wand didn't fall.

In the floating fog, a golden figure appeared.

Its head is elongating, its shoulders are arched, hair is growing on its face and hands, and its fingers are gradually becoming pointed, like claws.

The monster looked in the direction in front of Karan and stared at him.

In its eyes, there was a hint of ferocity, but more of it was pain and pleading.

The expression on Karan's face did not change at all as he looked up and down at the monster.After about a while, he picked another footprint that was undergoing transformation and dropped the elder wand vertically.

"The original body appears."

Golden figures emerged one after another from the mist, silently narrating Remus's entire transformation process.

Finally, Karan waved away the complete werewolf image, and all the remaining golden mist disappeared. The footprints on the floor gradually disappeared, and the whole room finally returned to its original appearance.

werewolf.

Karan thought silently in his mind.

After transforming, he either attacks others or hurts himself.

And after returning to human form, he will recall everything that happened last night.

It's more like a curse than a blight.

A curse specifically designed to target wizards, or even humans.

Human beings are special existences in magic.

Wizards can transform into animals through the animagus or other forms of transformation.

But animals can never become humans...

At this time, a rustling sound coming from the window interrupted Karan's thoughts.

He didn't show the slightest panic on his face, he just stayed quietly under the invisibility cloak and looked out the window that was boarded up.

Between the gaps, a cautious figure could be vaguely seen. This figure walked hesitantly towards the Shrieking Shack, but would stop and observe for a while after taking a few steps.

After the figure got closer, Karan finally recognized him.

It's Rita Skeeter.

She no longer looked as glamorous as before, her whole body was full of decadence and madness.She kept whispering to herself: "There will be no ghosts, there will be no ghosts..."

In her hand, she still held the quill that could only talk nonsense, and in the other hand she held a notebook, but they were both trembling at the same time, showing her inner uneasiness.

"As long as I can complete this haunted house report, I will definitely be reinstated."

“It’ll be okay”

She kept muttering in a low voice, but her eyes only grew more frightened.

Finally, she had the courage to put her head in front of the sealed window, and looked inside along the narrow gap.

There was silence in the room, and the dark light could only allow her to see a small part of the scene, which looked dark and gray inside.

"Is that all?"

She gradually frowned, suspicion rising in her eyes.

suddenly

All the furniture in the house began to shake violently, making bursts of collision sounds, as if the originally quiet house was suddenly filled with invisible "guests"

"what"

Skeeter screamed in horror, and she was so frightened that she sat back on the ground. After grabbing the quill and notebook while rolling around, she panicked and ran away towards the village in the distance.

It wasn't until Skeeter was no longer visible that the strange noises in the Shrieking Shack finally disappeared.

At the same time, Karan also returned to the tunnel quietly.
