Hogwarts passer-by professor

Chapter 197 Grievance

Eisen did not go back, but followed the trio to the Gryffindor common room.

Sitting on the sofa near the fireplace, Eisen could still hear other little wizards not far away discussing Professor Lupin's transformation into a werewolf.

"It's so scary. I can't believe there are werewolves in Hogwarts!"

"Stop talking nonsense, Dumbledore already said that Professor Lupine will not go crazy and attack us after drinking Wolfsbane potion!"

"I mean, it's incredible that Dumbledore would agree to a werewolf coming to Hogwarts as a professor."

"Do you believe Professor Lupin would attack us?"

"Of course not. If he wants to attack us, there are too many chances. You know, he has been teaching us for almost a year."

……

"Professor Eisen, will Professor Lupin be okay?" Hermione sat on the other side of the sofa and looked at Eisen with a worried expression.

Harry and Ron sat on the chairs opposite each other, silent, not knowing what they were thinking.

"Of course nothing will happen. Professor Lupine was invited by Dumbledore to be the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor. Of course he knows what's going on with Professor Lupine," Eisen said.

"Professor Eisen, I was in Professor Lupin's office some time ago and saw him drinking the potion prepared by Snape. It was Wolfsbane potion, right?" As if he thought of something, Harry's eyes suddenly lit up and he looked over Aisen.

"That's right -" Eisen nodded, "If a werewolf wants to stay sane while transforming, he must take wolfsbane potion. But wolfsbane potion is a very complex potion, and there is only Wolfsbane potion in Hogwarts. Nap can configure it.”

Ron and Hermione also thought of what Harry had said about this, and suddenly showed a look of surprise.

"Then why Snape-" Ron had a look of confusion on his face.

"Professor Dumbledore invited Lupine to be the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, so he ordered Snape to prepare wolfsbane potion for Lupine to take to ensure that he would not lose his mind after the transformation. Snape definitely did not No way to refuse."

Eisen said, glanced at the trio, and then continued, "However, Snape has always been at odds with Lupine. They had conflicts as early as when they were in Hogwarts school."

"I know that -" Harry suddenly spoke. After a pause, he seemed a little embarrassed, but continued, "During the holidays, I lived with Sirius, and he told some things about my father's past. Things at school. Well, my father is friends with Sirius Black, Professor Lupin, and Peter Pettigrew, and they have always been at odds with Snape..."

Harry used a strange tone to describe the mutual hostility between Snape and his father.

After Harry finished speaking, he found that Ron and Hermione had opened their mouths and stared at him in stunned silence.On the other hand, Aisen's expression was very calm, and he seemed to have no reaction at all.

"You mean, your father and Sirius bullied Professor Snape during school?" Ron had an inexplicable look on his face, "Then he must have been bullied terribly. I really want to see what he was like at that time. What a look!"

Hearing this, Aisen's face turned a little dark.Ron, this kid, why is his concentration so distorted?

"So, because Professor Lupine has a good relationship with your father and Sirius Black, Snape has always been hostile to him?" Hermione looked at Harry and nodded thoughtfully.

"That's right!" Harry said, scratching his head.Then, as if he was a little embarrassed, he opened his mouth and hesitated for a moment before continuing: "You all know the Screaming Shack, right?"

"Of course, we have been to Hogsmeade twice. Everyone knows that the Shrieking Shack is haunted." Ron said it first.

"Actually, the Shrieking Shack is not haunted anymore -" Harry started to speak after looking around and realizing that no one was paying attention here.

"How is that possible? Everyone knows that the Shrieking Shack is the most haunted place in Britain." Hermione interrupted him before he could finish.

"Listen to me -" Harry whispered, "Professor Lupine was able to transform into a werewolf when he was in school. Professor Dumbledore specifically asked Professor Lupine to hide in the Shrieking Chamber when he transformed during the full moon. house."

"You mean to say that the rumors about the Screaming Shack being haunted are actually the roars made by Professor Lupine after he transformed into a werewolf?" Ron couldn't believe it for a moment when he heard the truth of the matter.

"Yes, do you remember the whomping willow outside the castle?" Harry nodded and continued.

"Of course, how could we forget it!" Ron's expression gradually became ferocious, "The car we were riding in hit the Whomping Willow. If Professor Eisen hadn't taken action, we would have even been killed by it. Also, you The Nimbus 2000 was also shattered by it!"

"Yes, in fact, the Whomping Willow was planted by Headmaster Dumbledore, and below is the passage leading to the Shrieking Shack." Harry bared his teeth.

"Dumbledore must have wanted to prevent other students from entering the Shrieking Shack through that passage, so as not to be attacked by Lupine who turned into a werewolf. That's why he planted Whomping Willow to seal that passage!" Hermione on the side Say it in a positive tone.

"So that's it - but even if that's the case, what's the problem?" Ron nodded but looked directly at Harry as if he remembered something.

"In order to catch my father and Sirius, Snape always wanted to know where Professor Lupine went on the night of the full moon-" Harry whispered.

"Screaming Shack?" Hermione seemed to have thought of something, with a deep look of worry on her face.

"Once, Sirius deliberately revealed to him the method of entering the Shrieking Shack from the Whomping Willow. As a result, Snape was almost killed by Lupine who turned into a werewolf!" Harry said with a slight frown on his face. got up.

"Oh my God, doesn't Sirius know what the consequences of this will be?" Hermione looked at Harry in surprise.

"Yes, Sirius told me that's what he thought. They were always hostile—" Harry fell silent after he finished.

"But Snape is not dead, right? Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to teach us Potions class!" Ron spread his hands and said.

"Yes, my father finally saved Snape from Lupin!" Harry nodded, his face heavy and he didn't know what he was thinking.

"But, if your father can save Snape from transforming into a werewolf, it means that your father was also present at the time. Otherwise, he would not have been able to rush over!" Hermione looked at Harry's expression. Even more surprised.

"Sirius said that after he leaked the news to Snape, he told my father about it. Then my father rushed over." Harry said.

"Professor Eisen, what do you think?" Hermione pushed Eisen's arm.

Eisen hesitated. In fact, he probably understood the grievances and hatred between them.But Eisen obviously didn't know what kind of mentality Black had at the time to leak the secret to Snape to enter the Whomping Willow.

However, Eisen speculated that Black either had a reckless personality and did not care about the life and death of Snape, his hated opponent.Or he had malicious intentions and wanted to use this method to kill Snape directly.

Whatever the possibility, after Blake did all this, he must have told James Potter, who was nearby.Otherwise, as Hermione said, James Potter, who was not at the scene, would not be able to save Snape in time.

As for why Harry's father wanted to save Snape, his love rival, this is easier to understand.After all, they were all at the scene. If Snape was killed by Lupine, who transformed into a werewolf, the consequences would obviously be quite serious.

Once this happened, Lupine would be expelled, which would be the least severe case. He might be imprisoned in Azkaban or even executed.After all, a werewolf killing a Hogwarts student was a serious crime.

As for James Potter and others, it is estimated that when the truth is found out, they will inevitably bear some responsibility.Maybe, they will also be expelled from Hogwarts.

Obviously, this result was unacceptable to Harry's father.

Of course, maybe James Potter didn't think so much and simply just wanted to save Snape, his love rival.But Eisen believes that James Potter should have considered the consequences.

"Well, maybe Harry's father didn't know that Sirius would tell Snape how to enter the Whomping Willow, so when he found out, he thought that what Sirius Black did was wrong, and hurried over to rescue Snape." Eisen looked at the trio and slowly expressed his guess.

When the three heard what Aisen said, they nodded but said nothing.

For a while, several people fell silent.
