The Mightiest Badger at Hogwarts

On the first day of school, Mrs. Foley got up early and personally prepared a not-so-rich but heartwarming breakfast for Link.

Then she drove into her burgundy sports car and drove Link to the entrance of King's Cross Station.

But unlike in the past, where she would always put on a smile no matter how reluctant she was to leave, this time Mrs. Foley looked worried all the way.

Watching Link open the car door and walk into the station, Mrs. Foley finally couldn't help it.

"Link!"

She stopped Link before catching up and said, "This year, many Dementors have been sent to Hogwarts to capture that idiot Black Fudge. You must be careful not to provoke those monsters!"

"Don't worry, mother, I know what to do."

Link smiled back, but Mrs. Foley shook her head worriedly and said:

"Don't be so playful. You can't even imagine how scary Dementors are. If you can't hold on any longer, just tell me and I will arrange for you and Emily to take a break from school! Don't be mentally burdened. You have already proven yourself. …”

Mrs. Foley kept talking, and she felt like she wished she could go to school with Link directly.

This is the first time Mrs. Foley has shown such a state.

Link didn't feel impatient about this, he just listened quietly and nodded from time to time.

Finally, when the train was about to start, Mrs. Foley stopped talking, touched Link's head and said:

"Go on kid, don't forget what I said."

"Okay mother! I'll write to you when I get there!"

Link responded and quickly ran into the station, passed through the magic pillar, and boarded the Hogwarts Express amidst the roar of train whistles.

The next moment, the train started.

"call!"

Link took a long breath after boarding the train, and Cedric, who had the prefect badge on his chest, immediately came up to him with John and Emily.

"Link! Merlin! You were almost late!"

"Yeah...that's because a black cat is lying in front of me..."

In the face of Cedric's inquiry, Link made up random reasons. Mrs. Foley's external image has always been cold and strong, and Link did not want to destroy this image.

Cedric didn't pay attention to Link's nonsense, shook his head and said:

"Okay then, you guys go back to the car first. I still need to continue patrolling. I hope the new students can be quiet."

After saying that, Cedric went to the freshman carriage to maintain order. As a prefect, he not only had super high authority to manage all Hufflepuff students from grades one to five, but he also had to be responsible for a lot of extra work.

"It's really hard work."

Link shook his head with emotion, and Emily on the side said with a smile:

"Next year it will be our turn."

John nodded in agreement.

They will also be in their fifth year next year, and by then the fifth-year prefects of Hufflepuff and Slytherin will definitely be Link and Emily.

Link chuckled and did not speak, but took Emily and John on a tour of one carriage after another.

John initially thought that Link wanted to take them to an empty carriage to rest, but after discovering that they had left the area where the Hufflepuff carriage was, he finally couldn't help but ask:

"Link, where are you taking us?"

"I'm looking for someone," Link looked around, then suddenly his eyes lit up and he said, "Oh! I found him!"

John and Emily followed Link's gaze and saw a strange man sleeping soundly against the window in a separate compartment.

This man was wearing a tattered wizard robe, even with many patches on it.Although he was not too old just by looking at his face, his short light brown hair had turned white, which made him look sickly and without energy at all.

"Who is this guy?"

John lowered his voice instinctively and asked, and after hearing this, Emily looked at Link with an inquiring look and said:

"Is this our new Defense Against the Dark Arts professor?"

"Bingo! That's right!"

Link smiled and snapped his fingers, then sat beside the man and pushed him gently:

"Professor Lupine, wake up."

"Huh? Yeah! I'm so sorry!"

Half asleep and half awake, Lupine sat up straight as a reflex, and apologized along the way.

"Professor Lupine, I really didn't expect to see you here. You are our Defense Against the Dark Arts professor this year, right?"

Link continued to speak with a smile, and upon hearing this Lupine also narrowed his eyes and stared at Link for a while before he suddenly realized:

"Are you...Link? Link Foley?"

"Wow! It's really disappointing that you forgot about me."

"No, no, no! You have changed so much in the past two years!" Lu Ping defended hurriedly, and at the same time reached out to draw twice, "You must know that you were only this tall when I first saw you."

"Okay, then let me introduce you to my friends. This is..."

Link introduced slowly, John was very polite, but Emily was more cold.

To be honest, she didn't have a good impression of Professor Lupin.

You must know that generally speaking, professors will not take the Hogwarts Express to school with the students.

This was both because they needed him to arrive at Hogwarts early, and also to maintain the seriousness of his role as professor.

Therefore, they prefer to reach Hogsmeade Village (a wizarding village next to Hogwarts) through the Floo Network Fireplace, and then take a carriage to Hogwarts.

If a professor chooses to ride the Hogwarts Express, he either wants to mingle with the students, or he is too poor to use ground powder.

Looking at the other party's shabby dress, Emily obviously preferred the latter.

For such a person, it was really hard for Emily to believe how much teaching ability he had.

After everyone sat down and exchanged some pleasantries, Professor Luping relaxed and returned to his weak appearance again, leaning against the window and yawning.

Upon seeing this, Link took a bottle of energy potion from the armor belt under his robe and handed it over:

"I thought you might need this."

"Hmm! The quality of this potion is very high!" Lu Ping took a sip and said, "Did you make this yourself?"

"Yes."

Link smiled, while John, who had not been able to interrupt, said proudly, "Link is a genius in potions. Last year, he became the youngest person in history with a new potion." The recipient of the Merlin Order of Merlin, Level [-]!"

"It's not that exaggerated. It's actually thanks to Professor Snape's help."

Link was modest, while Lu Ping on the side heard the words and murmured thoughtfully:

"Snape?"
