On Monday morning, the vacant Defense Against the Dark Arts professor finally arrived. Gilderoy Lockhart was exposed not long after the start of the term, but the Defense Against the Dark Arts class can never be empty, so everyone is very concerned about the new professor. The professor's arrival had a premonition, but he didn't expect it to be so soon.

Circe was a little surprised to see a familiar face on the professor's bench, but it was also reasonable.This Mr. Lupine was already familiar with Dumbledore. It is said that he was also a student of Hogwarts and graduated from Gryffindor.It's just that Circe is a little aware of his other identity-a werewolf.Yes, the last time Circe had seen the new professor at home, she had discovered the unknown identity of Mr. Lupine.The werewolf blood was not very popular in the wizarding world.On the one hand, because werewolves completely lost their minds and were very violent when they transformed on the full moon; on the other hand, when Voldemort ruled the wizarding world, some of his subordinates were werewolves, which caused great panic to wizards. If a werewolf bites, there is no way to recover.At least not for now, Circe blinked at the statement, she had reservations.

Professor Lupine is popular, especially with Gryffindors.He adopts a special teaching method, so that every student has the opportunity to practice. After taking his class, even Slytherin rarely made some offensive remarks.

It was rare for Sherlock to go home once. He was very busy after school started, but this time it was because Alina was going back to work after her vacation, so he only went home once to help her mother bring things back to school.

As soon as he entered the house, he felt that something was wrong. There were some unusual things in the home furnishings. "Mom, what did you raise?"

"Oh! Charles, you'll love it," Elina said as she came down the stairs. "It's very smart. Ellen took it for a walk. You'll see it in a while."

"Dog? Mom, you know..." Sherlock was helpless, he stared at Alina standing on the stairs with wide eyes,

"Hey! Baby, don't be coquettish! I swear, it is a very obedient dog." Alina walked down the stairs while talking, raised her right hand and patted Sherlock's shoulder,

"I didn't act like a baby, and Mom, I told you not to call me baby!" Sherlock was furious, at home, the only one who could annoy him was this.The eldest in the Holmes family will always be Alina.

Before he could protest again, Allen had already returned from a walk with the dog. The couple stared at their second son closely, trying to find a frightened expression on his face, but to their surprise, Sherlock didn't Showing any panic, it's not pretending to be calm, but an indescribable inexplicable, "Mom, is this dog brought back from Diagon Alley?" Unexpectedly, Sherlock asked enough about the origin .

"Well, yes, what's the problem?" Alina looked at Allen, and Allen shrugged, indicating that he didn't say it himself.

"It's okay, it's nothing, it's late, you guys go upstairs! I'll let Patrick make something to eat, and I have to go back to school early tomorrow morning!" Sherlock looked back at the black dog and urged them.

When Alina and Alan returned upstairs, Sherlock called out Padraic for the first time, and then faced the black dog, as if he was facing an enemy. "Who the hell are you? Why are you staying in my house?"

Patrick also stood in front of Sherlock for the first time.

Sure enough, in the next second, the black dog turned into a man, wearing the black wizard robe that Sherlock was used to seeing at Hogwarts when Sherlock turned into a cat, and holding the necessary equipment for wizards - wand in his hand.

"A Muggle? How do you see me!" The man was nervous, holding the wand tightly in his hand, and before Sherlock could answer, he said to himself again, "No, it's more like a kind of protection Curse, I should have found out, there is a wizard here!"

Sherlock was surprised to find that the uninvited guest at home seemed to have a low IQ. At this moment, he had completely ignored Sherlock standing in front of him, and was focused on finding the wizard he guessed!

"There are no wizards here, or the only wizard in the family is still at Hogwarts. I know you may not be hostile. Circe said she set up a magic circle around the house, and all creatures that are hostile to the owner of the house are not allowed to enter. Since If you can come in, at least you won't do anything outrageous. But you must explain clearly your origin and purpose." Sherlock patted the elf on the head, "With it here, I believe you can't hurt this place. anyone in the house."

Padraic resisted the movement of turning around happily, but its expression revealed its true inner thoughts, and the wrinkled faces looked even uglier when squeezed together.

Seeing the elf like this, the man frowned as if he had thought of something bad, but he put down his wand as he said, and sat on the sofa with Sherlock.

"My name is Sirius Black. I know you haven't heard of my name, but I promise, I just happened to meet the kind Mrs. Holmes when I was hungry and cold. I have no hostility towards you." Mr. Black said Baba explained, it can be seen that he did not lie.

After Sherlock came to this conclusion, he was half-hearted. Next, it would be better to inform his sister to deal with it. "Padrak, thank you for your hard work, take care of him and don't let him go upstairs." After finishing speaking, Sherlock went upstairs.

Allen stood in the shadows at the foot of the stairs, and Sherlock was not surprised to see Dad here.He went upstairs without saying anything. Allen sighed and went back to the bedroom.

After receiving her brother's message, Circe planned to pick a time tomorrow to go home.But before she could act, Hermione stopped her in the library.

"Potion Potion, Hermione, why do you want the recipe for it? The second year class hasn't reached the point of making Polyjuice Potion yet!"

"This is very important, Circe, you must know its formula. Tell me! The lower grades in the □□ area cannot enter."

Circe looked at Hermione seriously, "Unless you tell me what you're coming for? Otherwise, I won't give it to you."

"Okay! It's about the Chamber of Secrets. Professor Binns said about the Chamber of Secrets. We guessed that the last time it was probably the Malfoys who opened the Chamber of Secrets. The heirs of Slytherin, this is what they have been pursuing. Then the matter It makes sense, after the old Malfoy opened the Chamber of Secrets last time, it must be the little Malfoy who did it this time." Hermione pulled Circe to a corner of the library and whispered to her, "We're going to use the compound recipe Soup to change appearance, sneak into Slytherin's basement when there are few people at Christmas, and ask Malfoy about the Chamber of Secrets. I have already asked, and at Christmas, Malfoy and his two followers are not will go home."

"Hermione, to be honest, who came up with this idea?" Circe was a little surprised. Hermione always obeyed school rules, and this idea violated more than one school rule. If found out, she might be expelled from school.

"I wasn't the one who suggested testing Malfoy, but Polyjuice Potion was on my mind. Harry really wanted to find out who opened the Chamber of Secrets, and I wanted to help."

Hermione had always been stubborn, and Circe knew that, so she was helpless, because she knew she couldn't dissuade her.

"Listen, Hermione, this is very important. I can give you the formula of Polyjuice Potion, but you must guarantee that you will not act without authorization. If you get any useful news, you must inform the principal or the professors. Is that okay?" Circe has a certificate from Dumbledore that allows her to enter the restricted area, and the recipe for Polyjuice Potion is in the restricted area.But this certificate should have been used to consult books related to the study of alchemy.

"I promise, Circe. I won't let them both act recklessly." Hermione swore solemnly,

Circe stared at her for a while, "Okay! This is for you," she took out a communicator, "This is an improved communication tool, similar to a mobile phone or something, mom said your mother bought this too, input magic power, Concentrate on calling out her name, and you can talk."

Hermione was a little surprised, "Isn't this something that only wizards can use? Mommy?"

Circe proudly took out a silver button-shaped thing, "Magic battery, fulfill your wizard dream."

Hermione: Shocked! ! !

Circe went to the restricted area, and calmly took out the certificate under Mrs. Pince's scorching gaze, ""Power Potion"?" She read it suspiciously, then read the certificate carefully again, and finally gave a warning Glancing at Circe, she made her way through the tall bookshelves, returning a few minutes later with big old musty volumes in her hand.

Circe handed the book to Hermione, and Hermione excitedly opened it, found the page marked with Polyjuice Potion, and murmured: "Lacewings—21 days, leeches, bicorn horns— -Grind into powder, two-ear grass, sap grass-picked at the full moon, the skin of the African tree snake, a little thing on the person who wants to change; effect: make the person change into another person. One dose can last for one Hours. That's it, thanks for your help, Circe!"

"You're welcome! I still have something to do, so I'm leaving first, remember what you said, don't act without authorization!" Circe stressed anxiously,

"I know." Hermione blinked and smiled.

Circe was indeed busy again, and she had to go home. Sherlock didn't make it clear what was going on when she contacted her.She is very worried.But because there is no Marauder's map, if someone sees you when you walk out, ha ha!Circe thought for a while, and walked towards the Forbidden Forest.The magic circle at Hogwarts does not fully include the Forbidden Forest, so if you are willing to walk a little more in the Forbidden Forest, you can still use Apparition.It's just that the Forbidden Forest is very dangerous, and Circe doesn't want to go deep into the Forbidden Forest if he can.
