hp's chaotic life at Hogwarts
Chapter 23 Chapter 23
Harry ignored Ron and Hermione's surprise. He pointed his wand at Lupine and Sirius tremblingly. The fear and expectation of getting close to the truth were intertwined - he wanted to hear what happened back then.
The two people finished talking about the matter. When it came to Pettigrew, Harry denied them with certainty: "No, Peter Pettigrew is dead!"
Sirius identified Ron's rat as Peter Pettigrew. Ron still refused to believe it, so the two of them took Banban away by force. He shot spell after spell at the fleeing rat for free. What happened next was amazing. The mouse turned into a short, fat human being. Because he was forced to return to his human form, there was a long mouse tail hanging behind him. The scene of Ron's massive collapse - he actually slept with a middle-aged boy for more than ten years.
Soon, what happened back then came to light. Riley's heart moved when she heard this. She looked at Harry. Harry stood there blankly, digesting the truth that had been buried for many years.
Pettigrew rushed toward Harry, and Riley tensed her nerves. Watching him rush toward him, she reflexively emitted a beam of green light. Thanks to his many years of being a shady mouse, Peter Pettigrew nimbly twisted, and the green light barely grazed his hair and hit his tail behind him.
Peter screamed, and the bloody short tail fell to the ground, and the smell of blood filled the room. Lupine and Sirius glanced at Riley in surprise. There was not much panic on Riley's face. She calmly stood in front of Harry and the others, still holding the wand firmly in her hand. Some blood spots splashed on her face, which added a bit of chill to her.
This is a fifth-grade girl who has never seen blood.
Lupine and Sirius couldn't help but feel that it was true that the waves behind pushed the waves ahead.
The two men quickly restrained Peter, and Harry decided to hand the disgusting rat to Azkaban so that he could also experience the kiss of a dementor.
A group of people emerged from under the tree hole of the Whomping Willow. Sirius looked up at the stars and Hogwarts Castle not far away.
Riley didn't follow them, she needed to take care of Professor Snape in the corner. Since Professor Snape was knocked unconscious by Harry, Riley took Professor Snape back to Hogwarts to rest.
When Professor Snape woke up that night, he naturally scolded Riley severely. In his eyes, Riley was putting her excellent talents aside all day long, and was bruised by Gryffindor all day long.
At Professor Snape's urging, Riley went back to sleep obediently.
Riley didn't know what happened after she and Professor Snape left last night, but she was sure it wouldn't be easy. Because Sirius escaped after being captured.
Riley knew that few people would believe the words of a few children, and she guessed that this was most likely done by Harry and Hermione. Why not take Ron? Because Ron injured his leg and was still lying on the bed.
Riley knew the three children had many secrets that she had no intention of discovering. But she wondered if she could clear Sirius' innocence? After being wronged for twelve years, suffering in the unknown Azkaban day and night, he finally met his old friend, but had to reluctantly leave. This thought was especially true after learning that he was Harry's godfather.
Riley couldn't bear to think of Harry's yearning look when he talked to them. He was more than happy to tell them what Sirius had told him on that moonlit night - that his godfather had invited him to live with him... and that when the dust settled, he would have a family. He believes that this day is not far away.
Riley was impressed by what happened to Sirius and Harry, and was looking out the window at the plants that were being watered by the rain. She was casually thinking about the Potions class she was going to attend later, when suddenly, a platinum head sat down next to her. Riley raised her eyes, Draco caught her eye, quickly avoided it, and then sat down again.
"How long are you going to be angry with me over a bird?" Draco lowered his eyes and asked Riley, sitting in front of her.
Riley looked out the window and sighed. She looked at Draco seriously and told him: "Draco, let's sort out the whole thing from beginning to end: Buckbeak scratched you because you provoked him first. It. Buckbeak is an intelligent creature. Hagrid repeatedly emphasized to be polite to him, but you didn't listen. After being injured, you blamed it for being dangerous. Not to mention that you wanted to donate Buckbeak's head to the Gryffindor public. It’s hard for me to believe that such cruel words as “rest room” came from the mouth of a thirteen-year-old wizard. Life is precious, and respecting life is simple but necessary.”
After being silent for a long time, Riley thought about it and finally spoke: "Draco, I think we should reduce the number of times we meet. It's difficult to stay friends with people with different views."
Boom - the sound of rain outside coincided with the sound in Draco's head.
Draco's mind stopped functioning. what did she say?
Why? Just because of a bird? But the bird scratched him... Could it be that he was not as good as a bird in her mind? She wants to break up with herself for a bird? No, it’s not a bird, there could be other reasons…
Draco's mind was in a mess now, and he stared at Riley blankly.
Riley was still sitting opposite him expressionless. She was wearing a green dress today, and it was as cold as the rain-soaked grass outside. Draco seemed to be about to cry: "Why? Is it because of Lupine's resignation? This is really not me..."
What? Riley keenly captured the key words: "Professor Lupine is leaving?"
Draco nodded and wanted to explain something. But Riley had already gotten up and left. Draco opened his mouth, looked at Riley's back as she walked away without hesitation, and then lowered his head silently.
"Professor!" Riley ran to Lupine's office and startled Lupine. He had just started packing his things when he didn't expect Riley to suddenly appear.
Lupine welcomed Riley's sudden appearance, but he still did not stop what he was doing.
"Professor, I don't think you should leave."
Deep self-mockery appeared on Lupine's face: "No, Riley, you don't understand. After what happened yesterday, I don't think I can continue to stay at Hogwarts to teach. The trouble I have caused to Dumbledore has already been That's enough."
Riley shook her head and stepped forward to take Lupin's things: "Professor Lupin, the professors at Hogwarts all know that you are a werewolf; Hermione and I also knew but did not tell anyone; Dumbledore believed it You gave me a chance to serve; you may not know it, but the students love being in your class...there are a lot of people who love you. You don't need to go back to the bad days."
The determination on Lupine's face softened a little. Riley continued: "And Harry."
Lupine looked up at the sound of Harry's name. Riley asked Lupine seriously: "Why do you have to worry in advance and do a lot of unnecessary things because of things that haven't happened yet?"
Lupine looked like he wanted to explain: "You may not know that people like me..."
"Sir, I know what kind of person you are." Riley said very calmly.
Lupine suddenly smiled and told Riley, "I know why Severus likes you so much."
Riley saw him put down his hands and felt relieved. She followed Lupine's words and asked, "Why?"
"Because you are indeed a smart, passionate and good boy. In fact, you are not only doing it for me, but also partly for Harry, right? His father's best friend is now a traitor, and one must leave him. And if I leave too, He must be sad. So why are you paying so much attention to him?" Lupine is someone who has been here before, and the way Harry looked at Lily was very much like the way James looked at Lily. He also wanted to help Harry ask Riley what she thought.
Riley is very straightforward: "Because he is my friend. I can pay as much as he can for me. What's more, this is not a sacrifice at all. I just do my best."
It seems that Riley doesn't have that intention. This is a very sincere answer and also Riley's sincere friendship. For a moment, Lupine thought he saw Lily.
After convincing Lupine, Riley left - she didn't want to be late. Professor Snape is very scary when dealing with late students.
Little did she know that as soon as she left, Harry walked into Lupin's office.
After getting back the Marauder's Map, Harry couldn't help but think of Professor Lupine's words on the way back - Riley said she regarded you as a very good friend. This sentence seemed to be meaningless, but when combined with Professor Lupine's meaningful wink, it made Harry uneasy.
There were other things that disturbed him. Draco blocked Harry's path.
Harry frowned and looked at him: "What are you going to do?"
Draco yelled at Harry angrily: "Did you say something to Riley!?"
Hearing him mention Riley, Harry also became interested: "What did you say?"
Draco sneered: "Still pretending? How could Riley want to break up with me just because of that stupid bird? Didn't you say something?"
I see. When Harry heard Draco say that Riley was going to break off their relationship with him, he couldn't help but feel a little secretive in his heart.
Harry looked at Draco's domineering look with difficulty and said, "Do you think she was angry because others said bad things about you? You have never thought about what you did, right? It's so pitiful that you are destined to have no friends."
Harry's disdainful look and the content of his words completely angered Draco, and he strode forward: "What did you say?"
Harry didn't lie at all: "I said, it's only a matter of time before she stops being friends with you!" It should be said that they were indeed sworn enemies, and Harry knew how to poke Draco's sore spots.
The atmosphere between the two people gradually became tense. Just when both of their hands touched the wand, Lupine appeared at the top of the stairs: "What are you doing? Go to class quickly!"
With Lupine beside him, Draco glanced at Harry condescendingly and whispered: "You should know that I never get what I want."
Harry responded without any hint of weakness: "Riley is an independent individual. She has her own choices."
