[HP] His little devil

On the third day after the werewolf incident, Lupine returned to class.

He looked as if he had been seriously ill, and he was very haggard and tired.

He walked alone among the classmates coming and going, and the prefect badge on his chest made him very eye-catching.

Especially by the attention of Gryffindor students.

To avoid these gazes, Lupine frowned and left the castle, wandering aimlessly outside the castle.

Helena in the fourth grade had just finished Protection of Magical Creatures class, which was the only class she and Regulus did not overlap, so there was no Regulus in this group of students.

Lupine looked for Regulus the moment he saw Helena, and when he couldn't find it, he didn't even know whether to breathe a sigh of relief or a sigh of relief.

Helena soon realized that someone was watching her, and she turned her head to see Lupine walking away quickly.

Helena thought of his true identity.

In fact, she had a good impression of Lupine. Although as a Gryffindor and a member of the hijackers, he seemed to be from a completely different world from her, but she didn't think he was a bad person.He is very smart, and he is the calmest of the hijackers. He often shows some better qualities, such as loyalty, hard work, or humility.

He's nice, a nice guy, and such a guy is a werewolf.

Helena thought of the book she had read before, about how a wizard who was bitten by a werewolf survived the torment of transformation.I still remember that when I first entered school, Evelyn talked to her about werewolves. She couldn't remember exactly what she said at that time, but if you only talk about her current thoughts, in fact, even if Dumbledore didn't ask , she probably won't say it.

Those are Gryffindor students. Their own dean and even the headmaster are not in a hurry. Why is she a Slytherin?Even if Lupine transformed in the castle and ran to hurt his classmates, it would be Gryffindor who suffered first, and Slytherin who lived in the cellar had enough time to stay away from danger.

She really didn't need to worry too much about Lupine's identity, and she didn't feel the need to reveal everything, given that the few exchanges between them in the past were quite harmonious.

"What are you thinking Helena?" Evelyn said, giving her a pull. "Your pouf is in my hair. Get it out."

Helena came back to her senses and whistled, and the tender green velvet immediately came out of Evelyn's hair and jumped into the hood of her school robe.

"It really listens to you." Evelyn sighed and asked her, "Did you give it a name? You have raised it for so long."

Helena thought for a while and said, "Let's call him Leo."

Evelyn raised her eyebrows: "What does Leo mean?" She smiled secretly and said, "I remember that Black's name seems to be the brightest star in Leo..."

Helena blushed and said, "You remember correctly, but don't connect this together, I didn't mean that at all."

"Then why are you blushing?" Evelyn grabbed her arm to prevent her from running away. During the fight, they met Maggie, and the three went to the auditorium for dinner together.

After they left, Lupine came out from the corner. He was slender and unusually thin, and a gust of wind blew him, and he was almost blown down by the wind.

"We can't let Remus go down like this." James Potter sat at the long table in the auditorium and said loudly, "We have to help him and cheer him up. This is our responsibility. He is because of us. It became like this!"

Sirius said expressionlessly: "You can definitely speak louder, James, so that everyone can hear what you said, make everyone curious, and then let everyone discover the secret."

James immediately shrank his shoulders when he said this, and said in a low voice: "I'm just too excited, you also saw Remus like that, I feel very sorry, we have an inescapable responsibility for this matter, we have to Make it up to him, Sirius."

Sirius lost his appetite. He put down his knife and fork, and under Peter's weak gaze, he said impatiently, "How do you want to make it up to him? We've already apologized, and he accepted it. What else should we do?"

James said dryly: "Of course he will accept our apology, because we are best friends." Loughton, he said sadly, "Accepting our apology doesn't mean he won't be sad."

Sirius was silent for a while and said, "Do you have any good ideas? About getting him back together."

James hesitated and said, "I do, but I'm afraid you won't agree."

Sirius looked at him sideways: "What's the idea?"

James looked at the long table across the street meaningfully: "The reason why Remus is so depressed is because our plan almost caused him to be expelled from school, and even almost killed his classmates. Solved, he should be fine after a while, they are not the problem."

Sirius already knew what he was going to say: "What do you want Helena Byrd to do?"

James opened his mouth and said after a while, "Maybe we can persuade her to meet Remus and show that she doesn't mind Remus' identity?"

Sirius didn't want to ridicule James, but he still couldn't help but said ridiculously: "And then? What's the use of it? Let's not talk about whether Bird will agree, even if she agrees, she ran to say, Remus Can you really be happy? The damage has been done, what is the difference between being pitied and hated?"

James whispered: "You have to try, don't you, don't you have a better way?"

It was precisely because there was no better way that Sirius was so restless.

He glanced at the seat Remus used to sit, which was now taken by Mary Macdonald, who continued to wink at him, and he turned away in disgust, more annoyed.

Although the good brother expressed disapproval of this plan, James Potter still took this plan to heart.

November is the month of the Quidditch match. The first match was Gryffindor vs. Ravenclaw. Helena and her friends went to watch the match. Regulus sat behind her, and she always pretended to watch the scenery Turning her head to peek at him, she would be caught every time. Although she felt very embarrassed, the sweetness beyond embarrassment was double.

Because of this, she watched the whole game very happily. Even if Gryffindor defeated Ravenclaw, the most powerful opponent of the Slytherin Quidditch team had more points, but it didn't affect her. good mood.

But her good mood disappeared when Potter stopped her after the game.

Coincidentally, at the end of the game, the three girls were supposed to go back to the castle together, but Evelyn and Maggie were called away at the same time. Somehow, she was left alone.

She didn't think much about it, she wanted to find a place to squat for Regulus, and go back with him, but Regulus didn't squat, but James Potter.

Porter, who had just won a victory, looked high-spirited, with messy brown hair and sparkling caramel-colored eyes. The round-rimmed glasses on his nose matched him well, adding a bit of calm to his extroverted and active temperament.

"Hi, Bird." He greeted her very enthusiastically, and Helena got goosebumps from the obvious look.

"It seems that you used some method to send Evelyn and Maggie away." Helena pointed out the problem very directly.

James scratched his head and said, "Oh, yes, I have something to tell you, it's not convenient for them to be here."

Helena frowned and said, "There doesn't seem to be anything between me and Mr. Potter that needs to be said behind our backs."

James was still wearing the uniform of the Gryffindor Quidditch team. He held the broomstick in one hand and clenched his fist in the other. After Helena said the above sentence, he stretched out his clenched hand to her .

"What are you doing?" Helena stepped back and asked cautiously.

James sighed, and showed her his palm, and she saw the Snitch he had caught when he won today's game.

"I'm giving this to you. It represents glory. It's a rare treasure. How about asking you to promise me something for its sake?" He spoke to her in a pleading tone for the first time, Helena They were all fooled by him.

"Wait, what did you say?" She pointed at the Snitch and said, "You want to give me the honor you just got, and then let me promise you something for its sake?"

James nodded: "Yes, that's right, it's not a difficult thing to do, as long as you say a few words, it won't even take up too much of your time, how about it, it's a good deal, right?"

To be honest, it was the first time for Helena to observe the Golden Snitch at such a close distance. She really liked it, and it would be very beautiful to process it into a necklace.When she was born, her family didn't have much money, and decent jewelry was no different. There is no girl who does not love beauty, and she also likes those jewelry.

Seeing Helena staring at the Snitch all the time, James knew she was moved, so he stepped up: "Take it, it's beautiful, it's an honor, I can even catch it in the next game Give it to you, as long as you promise me that."

Helena thought about it and felt that this was not very good. Who knew what he wanted her to do?If you agree without knowing it clearly, you might be tricked by him.It wasn't that she didn't trust Potter's rare sincerity, but that he had too many previous convictions.

After thinking it through, Helena was about to reject Potter when another voice joined the conversation.

A low and masculine voice said slowly: "If she wants the Snitch, I can give her the ones I catch every game, and I don't need her to do anything for me."

Helena and Potter looked over together and saw Regulus standing with his hands behind his back.

The breeze caressed his short black hair, and the soft hair swept across his forehead. He smiled slightly and said, "So she doesn't have to agree to any of your requests, don't you, Mr. Potter?"

As Slytherin's gold medal seeker, Regulus caught the Snitch as many times as Potter.

So when he said that, James Potter had nothing to refute.

But he was still a little unconvinced, stepped on Regulus' sore foot and said: "I'm talking to Bird, it has nothing to do with you, who are you to make decisions for her without authorization? You should at least ask her What if she wants to promise me?"

Regulus looked at Helena graciously: "Helena, do you want to agree?"

Helena scratched her hair hanging down her shoulders, Zhang Kai wanted to say something, but Potter preempted her.

James said angrily: "What's the use of asking her now? You said that just now. Even if she wanted to agree before, she's too embarrassed to agree now!"

Helena looked at him with some surprise. This was the first time she discovered that James Potter had an emotional intelligence.

Potter glared at her: "What kind of look do you have, as if I'm an idiot." He glanced at Regulus, knowing that today's conversation could not go on, he simply left, before leaving, he Say to Helena, "I won't give up, you just wait, I will make you promise me."

His firm tone made Helena hesitate a bit.

"I don't know what's the matter with him." She looked at Potter's back and murmured.

Regulus squinted at her: "Do you need me to ask for you?"

Helena immediately said: "No! Of course not! I'm not curious at all, really not at all!"

Regulus smiled, that smile was a bit dangerous no matter how you looked at it.

Helena rubbed her neck and said, "That, that, it's time to go back to the auditorium for dinner, shall we go together?"

Regulus thought of James Potter's words.

He questioned who he was to Helena to make decisions for her.

He really wanted to tell her directly who Helena was, but thinking of the ultimatum given by his mother before school started, and how he would persuade her to give up finding a marriage partner for him at Christmas, he could only say those words that he was about to spit out. Take it back.

He answered Helena's invitation without words.

He directly grabbed Helena's wrist tightly. Helena felt a little hurt from being grabbed, but because of his cold profile, she gave up crying and let him pull her towards the castle.

Sirius walked out from behind a big tree with his hands in his pockets, recalled Regulus' expression when he saw James and Helena together, and his brother's ugly expression after driving James away, and smiled unconsciously. There was a sound.

The existence of Regulus was the most difficult crux of James' plan to succeed, and it was also the reason why he did not speak out against the plan in front of James.

He knows what kind of person Regulus is like as an elder brother, but he has inherited the best traditions of their family - good at calculating, vicious and insidious.

He didn't want James and Regulus to get involved or even become enemies because of this incident, so James' plan would no longer be him.

Had to replace someone.

Who is it, who is the most suitable?

Of course it was him.

Then Helena had a "chance encounter" with Sirius Black one night in late November.

She was much better off with Regulus' brother than she was with James Potter.

She said very politely, "What's the matter, Mr. Black."

Sirius snorted lightly and said, "Guess?"
