[HP] Wolf and Alice

[04]

Remus Lupine swears that his first encounter with Alice Atwood was definitely the most embarrassing moment in his life, bar none.

After Alice had just questioned the identity of 'Annika', the 'Annika' in front of her suddenly began to undergo some strange changes.Her curly black hair began to grow shorter and lighter, as if it were receding back into her head.Her face began to grow longer and narrower, and her body was stretched rapidly like a freely stretchable rubber band, until the appearance of 'Anika' completely changed into a strange young man, and these strange changes gradually stopped down.

Alice stood there dumbstruck, almost speechless in shock.

Yes, the man in front of him looks very young, no more than 25 years old at most.But his whole body exudes a vicissitudes of life that are incompatible with his actual age.

Alice narrowed her eyes slightly, and she noticed a pale pink scar on the man's face. Although it had been obviously faded a lot, Alice, as a professional, could still recognize it.

——That was the scar left after being attacked by a werewolf.

After realizing the seriousness of the matter, Alice raised her wand again.

What stood in front of her now was not only a thief, but also a werewolf.

A dangerous werewolf.

And she's just a Squib who can't even pronounce a spell.In the bottom of her heart, Alice thought that she was going to die.

The man stared blankly at the wand in Alice's hand, but then he did something that shocked Alice.

He stretched out his hand, and slowly pressed down Alice's wand that was pointing at him.Alice didn't know that she didn't resist, but she really didn't do it at the time.

"I'm sorry, miss."

After both of them calmed down for a while, the man said quietly: "I know this way of appearing on the stage is very unpleasant, but I really have no other better way, I have no choice but to do this shameless thing."

"Is it Polyjuice Potion?"

"what?"

"Is it Polyjuice Potion?" Alice swallowed nervously, and asked, "Is that thing that made you into 'Annika' a Polyjuice Potion?"

"Oh, yes." The man nodded. "It's the compound potion I prepared in advance. After I came here, I added a little... your colleague's hair."

"How is Annika?" asked Alice shrilly.

"You can rest assured, miss," the man said. "She's fine, she's fast asleep in a hospital bed. I just cast a stun spell on her."

Alice rolled her eyes thoughtfully after hearing this.

She thinks that men should not be lying.

"So, are you going to sneak in to steal the werewolf potion while St. Mungo is in chaos, Mr. Werewolf?" Alice asked.

The man lowered his head and did not deny it.

Alice removed her wand.

"I can give you the werewolf potion, sir." Alice said suddenly, "Although I can help you this time, I can't help you every time, sir. If possible, I still hope you can pass The regular way to buy potions—”

The man bit his lower lip, "I'm sorry to trouble you."

Alice shook her head, then asked: "What's your name, sir?"

The man said, "Remus Lupine."

"Alice Atwood." Alice held out her hand to Lupin in a friendly manner, and Lupine shook her hand when he saw this, "I am a nurse at St. Mungol's. This time Think of the potion as being given to you by me, but I hope I can see you at the front of the medicine cabinet next time, Mr. Lupine."

Lupine looked at Alice in surprise, with a faint light shining in his blue eyes.

"No, I don't think I can take it, miss," said Lupine. "I've put you in trouble, let alone accepting such an expensive potion for nothing."

"But it sounds better than stealing, doesn't it?" Alice couldn't help but asked with a smile.

Lupine couldn't help laughing after hearing this, "That's right."

In Lupine's brief narration, Alice probably learned about his general situation.

Remus Lupine, a young man who has just graduated from Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, has achieved excellent results in two major exams, and should have a bright future.

But he is a werewolf.

As a dangerous werewolf, he naturally couldn't let his employer know his real situation, so whenever he got sick, he had to miss work and ask for leave. Over time, every one of his employers would gradually become bored.

As for those employers who knew that he was a werewolf from the very beginning, although they would not put on a discriminatory face towards him on the surface, they just found an unreliable man after he hadn't worked for a full month. reason for firing him.

So until now, Remus Lupine has not been able to find a stable job.

The source of his money naturally becomes a huge problem.

However, due to the cumbersome and complicated production process of werewolf potions, the price has always been very high.Most of Lupine's hard-earned monthly salary was spent on werewolf potions.

And this month, unfortunately, he did not receive his salary on time, but the full moon is almost here.

Alice sent Lupine out through the back door of St. Mungo's, and before leaving, she told him that if he needed anything else, he could come directly to St. Mungo's to find her.

After Alice finished all the "work", she returned to the pharmacy, but she didn't expect that Abigail was already standing there waiting for her.

Abigail looked a little angry.

"Where have you been?" Abigail asked, "Didn't I tell you not to walk around, it's dangerous?"

Alice felt a little guilty, lowered her head and whispered, "I... I just walked around casually. I made you worry. I'm sorry."

Abigail sighed softly, Alice looked up, and happened to notice a dark red blood stain on her white cheek.

"Are you hurt?!" Alice asked nervously.

"It's nothing serious." Abigail shook her head and said, "It's just that there are a few lunatics... who stick out their claws and scratch at everyone."

At this moment, the iron door of the pharmacy room was suddenly opened.Immediately afterwards, two other girls, also wearing St. Mungo's work uniforms, walked in.

One of them was called Beth, and the other was called Faith.

Seeing Alice, Faith immediately said excitedly to Alice: "It's a good thing you didn't go out just now, Alice! It's just too scary!"

Beth also said, "That's right! I thought my life was going to die!"

"But it's okay——" Faith looked at Alice pointedly and winked her eyes, "it's a good thing that Black helped us drive away some crazy people. My God! If Black didn't come to help us, I thought the three of us This girl is going to die! Don't tell me, that Blake not only spells well, but also looks very handsome!"

At this moment, Abigail glanced at Beth and Faith with distaste, curled her lips and said, "It's still working time, two ladies."

After hearing Abigail's words, Beth seemed to suddenly remember something and became even more excited: "Face, don't call Black's attention! Black is willing to help us, but we both In the light of Abigail—”

Alice casts an odd glance at Abigail.

Abigail said nothing.

Neither admitted nor refuted.

Alice suddenly felt that something was wrong.
