Chapter 57 Lupine's Invitation

The Defense Against the Dark Arts class in the fourth grade was even more difficult for Diane than the idiot class in the third grade.Lupine seemed to be very interested in her, and every class would point her to answer some substandard questions, and the answers did not give Slytherin points.

After countless times, Diane finally lost her patience.

"Miss Willett, can you explain to us the living habits of the giants?" Lupine once again pointed to Diane, and the students of the two colleges all looked at Diani, waiting for the German. The lady once again answered the question perfectly.

Diane stood up and said calmly, "I don't know, Professor."

have no idea?The searchlight-like eyes shot over, very hot, finally couldn't help it?Head Slytherin—

At this moment, both Gryffindor and Slytherin have a mentality of watching the show. This is someone who dares to attack the professor (for details, refer to the sneak attack on Lockhart last school year), and the backstage is very big. Dong's relationship is also good.Although Lupin's class is very good and he is loved, but the life in the college is too ordinary, and it is good to have a little adjustment every now and then.The most important thing is that Diane was protected by Snape. If Lupine made things difficult for Diane, Snape's protection would definitely come to find a place.

"Don't know? Then I'll have to give Slytherin..." Lupine looked regretful, but his excitement was betrayed by those twinkling eyes.It would be more interesting if the little snake showed its fangs.

"Professor, please wait a moment." Diane didn't feel the slightest fluctuation at all because of Lupine's point deduction. "According to our curriculum, you are asking about the content of Chapter 49, and what we are studying now is Chapter 5, so it is understandable for me to answer that I don't know." The implication is that you have asked too much If you want to deduct my points, that's not acceptable.

"I'm just a little interested. I thought Miss Willett should know about it with her level of erudition. Moreover, Miss Willett can tell exactly where the content of my question comes from. How can she not answer this simple question? ?” said Lupine gently, “It is not a good habit to lie to the professor.”

Diane raised her head, and did not avoid Lupine's gentle and sharp gaze, "I personally think that if Professor Lupine is interested in giants, it would be the best choice to ask Hagrid. Everyone knows that Hagrid is not only yours. Senior, he was born as a half-giant. I believe he will not let you down."

"No, no, no," Lupine shook his head. "Actually, I think Miss Willett should have been a little aware of it before. Back then, the Death Eaters had a lot of communication with giants. Miss Willett studied under Professor Snape. He Didn't tell Miss Willett a little?"

He gave Diani a gentle smile, looking very elegant, but Diani looked disgusted.Did he ask the giant just to draw out Snape's Death Eaters?Then if she mentioned the habits of giants, would he say, "Miss Willett knows so much about giants, it must be your teacher, Professor Snape, who told you." If he said something more serious, maybe, "Professor Snape knows those people so well, is there his shadow in the giant riot and wounded people back then?"

Diane smiled, like an ignorant little girl, "Professor Lupine is wrong, I remember that you are the professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts, even if you want to reveal it, you should reveal it to me? I remember that Professor Lupine is the Phoenix The management of the club, and he has a good relationship with Hagrid, he must have a deeper understanding of giants than Professor Snape, who teaches potions."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Lupine to answer, Diane tilted her head again, looking innocent, "I heard that Professor Lupine disappeared for a few days when the giants rioted. Why don't you talk to the leader of the giants?" Ni is relatively familiar with what she did, "If this is the case, then Professor Lupine should not hide your experience, I don't want to suffer a big loss when encountering giants in the future—"

Hearing Diane's plausible words, Lupine could hardly hide his surprise, because what Diane said was the truth.It was he and Hagrid who went to negotiate with the giant leader, but they were a step too late and were ambushed by Death Eaters instead.But at the time, even James didn't know about it, how could she know?Perhaps, Snape had told her?

He laughed dryly, "Although I appreciate Miss Willett's thirst for knowledge, I can't talk nonsense." Many people were injured in the Giant Riot, and the Death Eaters couldn't be responsible for this, so more People blamed the person who went to communicate with the leader of the giant. Because of this, he disappeared all these years and lived in such poverty.

"Really? Could it be that Professor Lupine is no longer a member of the Order of the Phoenix? That would be a pity." Diane intentionally misinterpreted Lupine's meaning.

"Hehe." Lupine clenched his fists, trying to maintain a gentle face, "You can sit down, Miss Willett. Your task now should be to study."

Enough was enough, Dai Ni sat down obediently, without saying anything.Rabbits will bite people when they are in a hurry, let alone werewolves?If he hadn't brought the topic to Snape, she wouldn't have spoken so unceremoniously about what happened back then. She had searched for a long time before she could get some evidence from the giants back then, and she was waiting to disband after the war. The Order of the Phoenix increases the stakes.Speaking out this time will definitely arouse Dumbledore's vigilance, but she does not regret it.The real confrontation is yet to come.

"The next time we're going to cast a spell against Boggarts, please go back and prepare carefully..."

Diane, who was immersed in thinking, did not hear Lupine's words clearly, so that she was not mentally prepared when she heard some news.

After class, Lupine unexpectedly stopped Diane.

"Miss Willett, please wait."

"Is there a problem, Professor?" Diane guessed that he might ask her to see Dumbledore, but she thought he would complain to Dumbledore first, which he did a lot when he was a student, many times if it wasn't for Lupine. The punishment of the James quartet will definitely not fall on Snape.This cunning werewolf.

Lupine didn't care about Diane's indifference and disrespect, and seemed extra reserved, "I think Miss Willett may have misunderstood me, maybe you would like to come to the Defense Against the Dark Arts office to have a chat with me."

To the Defense Against the Dark Arts office?Diane was a little surprised, and then it occurred to him that perhaps he was trying to get his words out of her before telling Dumbledore.However, will she be so easy to be stereotyped?You might as well agree to go and see what he's up to.

"My pleasure, Professor."

Following Lupine to the Defense Against the Dark Arts office, Diane deeply felt that Lupine's taste was not so Gryffindor.Although the decorations are a bit shabby, they are neatly arranged and have a bright and open feeling.

"I made Miss Willett laugh, my property is not that rich." Lupine admitted frankly, and did not shy away from his financial strength being known by Diane.

For this, Diane still appreciates it. Although this werewolf gave her a bad image, she has to admit that he looks like a gentleman on the surface.Elegant, gentle, very accommodating, and comfortable speaking, if she hadn't had Snape first, maybe she would have developed a good impression of him--without knowing that he was a werewolf.

"Professor is too modest. In my opinion, it is much better than last year." Dani is absolutely telling the truth. Although the decoration is a bit simple, the placement is still good. It is better than the full room she saw last year. The portrait is much stronger.

Lupine looked a little surprised, "Really? It was Professor Lockhart last year, I heard that he is very popular with ladies, and he is also the only heir of the family."

You pretend, and then pretend!Diane despises, as Dumbledore's right-hand man, will he not know that Lockhart is an idiot?Pretending to be surprised.

"I'm not talking about the value of those items, but the taste of the placement. Professor Lockhart has filled his office with his portraits." And it's still moving, the kind that keeps posing in a flirtatious pose.Thinking about it this way, she felt that Lupine was not so annoying.If it is true, do we still have to compare to get true knowledge?

"Really? No wonder I didn't even find a mouse hole when I first moved into the office. It turned out to be thanks to Professor Lockhart."

Lupine's humorous words made Diane's influence on him much better, "So, the portraits of Lockhart are not only showing off an advantage."

"Hehe, Professor Lu Ping really has a pair of eyes that are good at discovering the good points of others." It's a pity that he doesn't have a kind and grateful heart.Dai Ni added silently in her heart.

Lupine laughed loudly after hearing this, "Thanks to Miss Willett's praise, why don't you see if my collection over the years is worthy of Miss Willett's evaluation?"

"I'd like to give you a reward." Diane really didn't understand. There was no reason why Lupine called her here, but he hasn't shown any signs so far. Could it be that he really just wanted her to change her view of him?impossible!

Lupine took out a blue and white porcelain vase from the drawer, and handed it to Diane, "This is an oriental imitation porcelain vase in my collection, a Muggle thing sent by Senior Weasley, I guess you must have never seen it before."

Diane took it tangled, she really wanted to tell Lupine that not only had she seen this thing, but the worst thing she had ever seen was many times better than his.But she held back, "It's really beautiful, but it's a Muggle thing after all. I remember it coming from China."

"I don't know about this." Lupine looked a little embarrassed, "This was given to me by a senior who likes to collect Muggle things. In my opinion, it doesn't seem to be able to find other uses besides the beautiful pattern. "The bottle was a good lunch for him in poverty at the time.

Diane, luckily she didn't quite want the werewolf to understand the collectible value of this thing. "Compared with decorations and decorations, I think Chinese Hanfu is more attractive to us girls."

"Hanfu?" Lupine didn't seem to understand what Diane was talking about. "Girls like these, and I remember Lily back then as well."

"Lily?" Diane instinctively picked out the name of this "rival in love".

Lupine suddenly realized, "Oh, Lily is Harry's mother, and she is very familiar with Snape. I have been thinking that if there was no James, Miss Willett's Potions Professor would not have been single. Now."

"Pa—" But there was a crisp sound, and the porcelain bottle in Diane's hand fell unsteadily to the ground and broke into pieces.

Diane suddenly regained her senses, pulled out her wand in a panic, and cast a few "restore to original" on the fragments on the ground.The wizard's spell was particularly useful at this time. Under a spell, those fragments returned to their original state in a short while, and there was no trace of them.

"I'm so sorry, Professor Lupine," Diane handed the bottle back to Lupine, "I was lost, so I couldn't hold it steady, and my hand slipped." She didn't know whether Lupine said that on purpose or on purpose, but both It didn't prevent her from feeling sour after hearing the content.Snape has been single until now, isn't it because of Lily?In the future, he might give up his life for Lily, just to protect Lily's child.

Lupine didn't blame Diane at all, he smiled gently, expressing his understanding, "I can understand Miss Willett's carelessness, students always find it difficult to keep calm when they hear such topics about teachers. I was also very concerned about Principal Dumbledore's private topics."

"Hehe, anyway, I lost my composure." Diane greeted Lupine politely. She felt terrible now, and couldn't help but think of Snape looking into Harry's eyes and saying "look at me" before he died. He didn't tell Harry about the scene, he was talking to Lily through Harry.

Lupine patted Diane on the shoulder, trying to show that he didn't care, but Diane avoided it. She couldn't bear the touch of strangers except Snape and Harry.

"Speaking of which, Miss Willett has studied potions with Professor Snape for several years, and her level should be very high." He asked seemingly unintentionally.

Diane's heart sank, did she finally get to the point? "Compared to the average person, it's not bad, but if it's better than the teacher, it's far worse." Not too humble, not too arrogant, Diane's speed is well grasped.By the way, he praised Snape a bit.

"I remember that Professor Snape's most outstanding achievement is about the chamaejasbane potion. Miss Willett should be familiar with it."

Sure enough, he was not helping Dumbledore to explore the situation and slandering Snape, or was he going to ask about Wolfsbane, which he cared most about?

Hearing Lupine asked about this, Diane felt relieved instead. Lupine was nothing to her, and Dumbledore was the one she had to be wary of.She was relieved but couldn't help being a little disappointed. She thought he would take the opportunity to say something, but she didn't expect the purpose to be so simple.

"Well, I know something about it."

"That's great!" Lupine's excitement almost made Dienie laugh out loud, he looked extremely embarrassed, and his face was very embarrassed.

"It's okay, Professor Lupine, I can understand your thirst for knowledge, do you want Professor Snape to help you make the wolfsbane potion?" Diane asked enthusiastically, "If you need any friends, I can talk to Professor Snape, it's cheaper for you. How about 90.00% of the market price?"

90.00%...Lu Pingmo, let alone 90.00%, even if it is [-]%, he can't afford it! "Miss Willett misunderstood. I just happened to see a bottle of Wolfsbane potion with a color different from that on the market at Professor Snape. I was a little curious, so I just wanted to ask."

However, he had changed his mind now, and Diane's price points had woken him up. Even if what Snape made was counterfeit, he had to drink it. Who made him have no money?

It turned out to be like this. Diane thought that Snape had developed an improved version of Wolfsbane Potion, but Lucius detested the color as too ugly and insisted that it was not in line with the aesthetics of his Malfoy family, forcing Snape to change the color. But it also reduces the efficacy.Snape's face at that time was not generally good-looking.If she guessed right, Snape must have added some other things to Lupine's medicine to change it to its original appearance, so Lupine would doubt it.

Suppressing a smile, Diane said in a soft voice, "Professor Lupine doesn't need to worry about this. The teacher's potion has never been wrong. If you see the gray wolf's poison potion, then I can tell you that there is absolutely no problem, not only that, but its medicinal effect is even better than that on the market."

Blue gray?It's also blue-gray.Lupine was relieved, he was afraid that Snape would hold a grudge against him, so if he changed his medicine, it would be over.

"Hehe, Miss Willett is indeed a student of Professor Snape, she is really knowledgeable and intelligent."

Hearing Lupine's words of praise, Diane was a little sick.His question just now reduced her favor towards him to a negative value again, she deeply understood Snape's love for potions, and no flaws were tolerated.Lupine's worries and suspicions were not only his distrust of Snape, but also his doubts about the quality of a Potions Master and the defilement of Potions Science.Of course, she never thought that with the brain capacity of those Gryffindors, she could understand what honor and responsibility are.Among them, this Lupine is at the forefront.

"I've been with you for too long, so in order not to disturb your work, I'll take my leave first!" Not wanting to discuss anything with this kind of person, Dai Ni directly chose to leave. Enough time wasted today, even if The lifespan of a wizard is longer than that of ordinary people, and it cannot be wasted on such magical creatures.

"Okay, Miss Willett, you are welcome to come to the Defense Against the Dark Arts office anytime."
