A certain Hogwarts rune professor

Chapter 288 Tonks and Lupine
school clinic.

Tonks woke up from the hospital bed, touched the bed covered with clean white linen sheets, feeling a little dazed for a moment.

What's happening here?
She remembered getting rid of the old toad and leaving her alone, she decided to have a good time around the campus, which included going back to the common room for a lie down on the yellow and black striped ottoman and eating in the kitchen. A Yorkshire pudding, how did she end up in the school hospital?
"Hey, are you awake? I know your name, Tonks, from Professor Happer——Felix Happer." A voice said.

Tonks turned his head abruptly and looked at the other side of the hospital bed. This was a middle-aged (?) wizard, his face was still young, but his appearance was weather-beaten, his hair was mixed with gray, and he was looking at him apologetically. Own.

Uh, let me think about it, what was I doing before I passed out?There were fights and quarrels, and I wanted to go over to see the excitement...

"You knocked me out?" she said incredulously.

Lupine coughed twice in embarrassment. Although Professor Haipu's suggestion was to let him leave him in the school hospital, he still decided to stay and at least apologize.

"It was an accident..." He suddenly stopped, this is the fourth time he said this sentence today.

Tonks shrugged and jumped off the hospital bed. "Wait - Madam Pomfrey advises you to take another look," Lupine said.

"Observe what, the awakening time of the stun spell?" Tonks looked very proud: "I guess it is 10 minutes, I have done confrontation training in the ministry, the best score is seven and a half, but usually it is 10 minutes .”

Lupine opened his mouth slightly, and rationally did not tell her the truth. She had more than one stun spell, and she didn't just pass out for 10 minutes. He hoped that this would be a secret that only he knew.but--

"I've been lying down for two hours?" Tonks looked at Madam Pomfrey in surprise. When she came out, the head nurse in charge stopped her and insisted on checking again.

"Otherwise?" Madam Pomfrey said impatiently, "There are still those who sleep all day. If Remus hadn't said that you might have official business, I wouldn't care about it...it's okay."

She left rambling, and Tonks turned to look at Lupine and reconfirmed, "I lay in bed for two hours?"

"...Yes, I was about to tell you," said Lupine bravely.

"Oh, forget it~" Tonks said cheerfully, "You're the professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts? There are really two tricks..."

"It's not me... well, how do you know I'm the professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts?"

"What else? One of the things I look forward to the most when I go to school is to see what the new professor looks like."

"Miss Tonks—"

"Call me Tonks, I haven't introduced myself formally yet, Nymphadora Tonks, but please don't call me by my first name," she murmured under her breath. "Nifah" is an inelegant word.

"Hello, Tonks, my name is Remus Lupine."

……

Gryffindor common room.

Harry was fiddling with his new acquisition - a very ghostly untitled book. Ron reached out and touched it curiously. The surface of the book was like water, and when he touched it, lightning-shaped lines would suddenly appear.

Hermione asked worriedly, "Are you really going to learn to Apparate?"

"Yes," said Harry decisively, "I think it suits me best, listen, Hermione, I've thought about it for two hours, and I still think I made the right choice."

When he came back from classroom [-], or was escorted back by Percy, he was originally aggrieved. He had the urge to go to Professor Lupin's office wearing an invisibility cloak, but two seats away was Percy Wayne. Sly, he has been following Professor Happer's instructions to watch, or protect him.

Especially since he was attacked only yesterday, and now the whole school knows that Sirius is obsessed with him—like the thousands of rumors and legends in the school, it is not true.

He had to give up this tempting idea, and turned to study the reward for the duel match that Professor Haipu had given him.He told Ron and Hermione his thoughts: "I had this idea when I was writing the dueling paper. Professor Flitwick said that to find what I am best at and make full use of my strengths, I would best What are you good at?"

"It's Quidditch," Harry whispered, "and Professor Hemp told me privately that he used to envy my reflexes..."

"Hiss~" Ron clicked his tongue, "You mean you can also swish in the future?" He flicked his hands randomly, imitating the movement of continuous apparition.

Harry said: "That's what I expected..."

"Hermione!"

The twins came in from the outside, and Fred was holding a ginger cat in his hand. "Crookshanks has been wandering around the door. I think it brought you a present." He said with a smile.

Hermione lowered her head, "Crookshanks, come here."

The ginger cat had something in its mouth, she just hoped it wasn't a giant spider, or she'd have to clean up again, and Crookshanks hopped onto the table lightly, spitting out the contents.

"This is—" Hermione's eyes widened.

"It's the magic puppet that Professor Haip brought with him today," Harry said affirmatively, and he fiddled with it. "It looks like the armor shape in the castle. He was still greeting me at that time."

Hermione patted the big cat on the head, "Why did you take something from the professor? We should return it to the professor."

"That's right," Harry immediately agreed, he especially wanted to ask about Professor Lupine's situation, if there was a legitimate reason, Percy wouldn't stop him, would he?
The knight on the table—or rather, Sirius looked depressed.He was thrown out by Lupin, knowing that he could not be of any help and that staying there would only add to the confusion, so he hurried to find Felix.

First he went to classroom No. [-], there was no one there; then he went to his office, avoiding the dirty claws of the little wizards all the way, knocking on the door hard, but there was no response, he barely climbed up the window, only to find that there was no one inside.

He didn't know what to do for a while, maybe it would be a good choice to find Dumbledore?But he didn't know the password at all, and when he came out of the office, he met Crookshanks.

Crookshanks is his ally and has provided him with a lot of information about the castle. He has always been grateful. This cat is smart enough to not only recognize him as a human, but also judge whether he is good or bad.

This time too, Crookshanks recognized him and kept trying to communicate with him, but he was enchanted and unable to speak - unless he got rid of his candy armor.

He can only make gestures, but unfortunately, although Crookshanks is smart, he is obviously not so smart.

After some ineffective communication, Crookshanks came to the common room with him in his mouth.

Ron looked at him with great interest, "Can you talk? Hey! Percy has one who can talk." He held up one of the knight's feet and swayed it. "What do you have?"

"Ouch!"

Sirius stabbed Ron's finger with the knight's sword in annoyance. Ron let go of the pain and let him fall on the table, knocking him dizzy.

"Come on, Ron!"

Sirius heard the voice of heaven, what is the name of this little girl, she is also the master of Crookshanks, she is really a good person.

Hermione picked up the knight, "Come on, let's return it to the professor."

They walked all the way to the door, and Harry stared nervously at Percy, but he didn't stop, maybe because he felt that two hours had exceeded Professor Happer's expectations?
Harry was grateful to see him lower his head again, fiddling with an advanced magic puppet, with the twins circling around him.

"You should let us see, and maybe add some new features, like—suddenly take out shit and bomb someone's face?"

Harry closed the door to the common room, shutting the quarrel between the Weasley brothers behind him, and two senior students walked towards them with excited faces: "Have you heard? A little girl in Slytherin is making a fuss Not a small mess..."

"What happened?" asked his companion with interest.

"You would never have guessed that she released a big snake in the Slytherin lounge!"
