I, Hogwarts Week Two

Chapter 203 Vampire?
—— Lupine lying on the bed looked at those gifts, his eyes gradually turned red.

As a werewolf destined to be alone all his life, he is lucky.

Both when I was young and now.

He had never felt so strongly loved.

The trust from the little wizards filled his dry heart with joy.

After a while.

A healer in a green robe walks in.

"He recovered very well." She smiled and looked at Professor Lupine on the bed.

"It's quite good." Mrs. Weasley turned away from anger, and worry appeared on her face again.

He looked at the other beds in the ward and said, "Poor Johnny was sucked into skin and bones by the monster. I don't know when he will recover."

"Their condition is not good." The therapist sighed softly. "Strictly speaking, Mr. Lupine is the only wizard who has recovered in the hospital. The condition of the others is not optimistic."

"They were more or less physically disabled, except for Mr. Lupine, who was physically intact."

"Everyone is different!" Sirius quickly opened his mouth and diverted the therapist's attention away.

He was afraid that the lady would discover Lupine's identity as a werewolf.

"Maybe~" Miss the therapist didn't seem too satisfied with this reason, she kept looking at Professor Lupine with a pair of cautious eyes.

The professor looked at her a little unnaturally, and his eyes couldn't help looking elsewhere.

"Oh! By the way, doctor, do you know which ward Lavender is in? It's the girl who was admitted with Professor Lupine." Hermione suddenly thought of something at this moment.

She and Lavender were roommates.
"Lavender!" Miss the therapist replied without thinking, "It's in the next ward."

"I'm going to see her." As she said that, the little witch narrowed her eyes and gave Owen a look with a very clear meaning, asking him to follow her.

Alright~ He returned the gaze.

It is necessary to give Harry a little space, he wants to chat with his favorite professor.

Then the two walked out of the ward.

Next door, over the double doors, a white sign read, 'Permanent Biological Damage. '

Through the window in the door, the two could see a wizard walking in the room.

"Is this here?" Hermione stared at the sign on the door in confusion.

"Permanent biological damage?"

This looks serious.

But didn’t Lavender bleed too much?
Although this may be a serious injury in the Muggle world, in the wizarding world this is not a problem at all!

"I don't know, go in and have a look."

With that said, Owen pushed the door open and entered.

This is a quadruple room.

And you can tell at a glance that this is a long-term ward.

Personal items are plentiful around the hospital bed.

More than Professor Lupine's ward next door.

Among them were two shriveled wizards lying down. If it weren't for their slightly heaving chests, Owen would have found it hard to believe that they were two living people.

There is another one with other injuries. He should have been bitten by some kind of magical animal, his body was full of cracks, he was panting heavily, and he would spew fire from his mouth from time to time.

The last one is Lavender.

She looked much better.

Holding a dark red lollipop in his hand, he was licking it obsessively.

"Hi Owen."

got~
The girl was clearly ignoring Hermione beside him on purpose.

"Are you here to see me?" She widened her eyes in surprise and waved.

Happiness is written all over his face.

"Well - it seems you are recovering well!" Owen maintained restraint.

He was a little afraid of this enthusiastic and unrestrained girl.

Because she might suddenly jump up and hug him and kiss him.
She would really do this.

Because she's already done this.

Fortunately, Miss Hannah's methods are extremely cruel, and she responds quickly.

Once the petrification curse was cast, she was punished to stand in place for several hours
"Well, I wasn't injured at all." She continued to lick the lollipop and said, "I woke up in the school medical room."

As she said that, she finally noticed Hermione who was pulling out a big bag of Christmas presents.

"Hi! Hermione, you're here too, and you brought a present, is it for me?"

"Hmm -" The little witch's face didn't look good at all.

With a cold face, she put a bunch of things beside Lavender's bed.

I'm dissatisfied with Lavender. Although their relationship is not very good, they still see each other every day. It's really annoying that this guy ignores me so much.

At least pretend to be enthusiastic, there are other people in the room.

Yes, besides the patient on the bed, there were quite a few friends or relatives of the patient in the room.

Lavender's mother was also sitting by the bed.

It was a young woman with long dirty blond hair, wearing a light green gown, covered with all kinds of shiny pendants.

Her eyes were red and her cheeks were stained with tears, it was obvious that she had just cried.

It was just that after seeing Owen and the others, he wiped it off in a hurry, holding on, showing a forced smile.

"Do you want to try this lollipop?" Lavender enthusiastically pulled out two bright red candies from the box at hand, "My God! I didn't realize that this thing is so delicious before."

"No need." Hermione frowned slightly, because the moment she took out the lollipop, a strong, huge smell of blood hit her face.

She couldn't avoid it and was hit by the smell.

"It's okay, you guys can try something else, I made it myself, try it!" On the side of the hospital bed, Lavender's mother, Mrs. Brown, stood up suddenly like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.

She looked at the lollipop in her daughter's hand in horror, then at Owen and Hermione.

Then he snatched the lollipop from Lavender's hand, and with a reserved smile on his face, he took a pink box from the side cabinet.

It contained several pieces of pastry.

It is the form of various animals.

"Thank you!" Owen didn't refuse, but directly reached out and grabbed a piece from it and stuffed it into his mouth.

He knew that he had to give this mother a step up.

Otherwise, she wouldn't be in a better mood today.

In the mouth of the dim sum, Owen only finds it sweet. Besides, its skin is quite crispy, and then there is not much taste to speak of.

"You are Lavender's classmates!" The mother's complexion improved slightly.

She seemed relieved.

Then he raised his smiling face again and said: "This kid has been careless since he was a child, and he doesn't have many real friends. I"

As she spoke, Mrs. Brown suddenly seemed to remember something, and her eyes dimmed instantly.

There is liquid swirling in the eye socket.

"Her popularity is actually quite good." Owen comforted.

This is not flattery. Compared to Miss Granger next to her, Lavender's popularity among Gryffindor is indeed quite good.

"Really?" Mom responded silently.

"Actually, you don't have to worry too much." Owen glanced at Lavender, who looked confused, and then turned to her mother and continued, "Principal Dumbledore is a generous person, and he will allow her to continue going to school. .”

"." Mrs. Brown's pupils constricted and she stared at Owen in horror.

"This is a blessing. There were other dark creatures that appeared in Hogwarts Castle that day. There were some furry things. Compared to those, she is much luckier now."

Owen was blunt.

Yes, it's obvious that Lavender, who was bitten by a blood ancestor, turned into a vampire.

St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Illness should already know about it.

Or they have such a guess, otherwise Lavender would not live here.

However, what puzzled Owen was.At that time, the Blood Ancestor had already become a Deathborn, and whether his blood still had the ability of First Embrace was open to question.

But for now, Lavender does show some of the qualities of a vampire.

For example, her face is as pale as snow, she now likes to look at things with blood, and her eyes, for example, have changed in color from light blue to dark red.

"By the way, the cakes made by your mother are quite delicious. Maybe we should all learn a bit and go back to school to make them ourselves." Then Owen looked back at Lavender casually, and talked about pastries thing.

"Of course, my mother's pastry is the best. She has a good grasp of the heat, and the skin is crispy every time."

At this time, Lavender didn't seem to notice the abnormality in his body.

He was still cheerfully introducing those pastries that were put in boxes, and invited Hermione to try them too.

"Well, that's true."

Taste has not changed.

Owen pondered.

It's not that vampires can't eat other foods, it's just that they can't taste ingredients that don't contain a lot of magic power, just like chewing wax.

And the vampires in the Harry Potter world are very different from the vampires in other worlds.

When they were here, although vampires belonged to the same dark creatures as werewolves, wizards were more accepting of vampires than werewolves.

This is because vampires in the Harry Potter world do not feed on blood.

To be precise, they feed on the magic power contained in blood, because although vampires are also wizards, once they become vampires, their bodies will no longer reflexively produce magic power.Must rely on external supplements.

Therefore, the vampires here will not attack Muggles, because there is no magic power, and they generally will not attack wizards, because compared to magical animals such as dragon blood, elf blood, and even unicorn blood, wizards are more powerful. The magic power contained in his blood is too weak.

It's like if you eat a lot of vegetables, you may be full, but you will be full if you eat half a chicken.

So unlike werewolves, vampires still have some status in the wizarding world.

Yes - but not much.

Professor Horace Slughorn, the previous head of Slytherin House, had a vampire student who was an excellent student and a member of his Slug Club.

Judging from Lavender's current performance, she doesn't seem to have lost the magic power of a human wizard.

This can be seen from the fact that she hasn't noticed the abnormality in her body for so long.

If she did become a vampire, a bloody lollipop made by Honeydukes that contained no real blood at all wouldn't provide much magic. (The Duke used some magical herbs to make the lollipops, which contain some magic.)
It's like a hungry person who survives only by drinking water, she sooner or later noticed it.

Now that she is not aware of it, it means that her body is still producing magic power and does not need external supplementation.

That's why she didn't notice anything strange at all.

"It doesn't look like a big deal." He nodded.

This is excellent news.

At least she didn't really turn into a vampire.

After all, drinking dragon's blood every day is quite expensive.

Not every family can afford to eat dragon blood.

"What are you talking about!" Lavender looked at him curiously.

Owen responded with a smile: "You are so lucky. Of course, this is thanks to Professor Lupine, who saved you the first time."

"Well - I should thank him."

On the other side, Mrs. Brown also nodded mechanically.

She hadn't seen the abnormality in Lavender from Owen yet, and she recovered from the shock.

Her mind is full of her own children, what will they do in school?
Will you be discriminated against?
Will it be like those dark creatures in the stinking ditch, unable to stand normally in the sun for a lifetime.

Could it be that she would be taken away by the Ministry of Magic and then locked up. After all, wizards always discriminate against dark creatures, and there are strict management laws.

"Hi! Owen, Mom said we can go to the sixth floor to eat first, and she made a lot of food."

"Wow! Hello, Lavender, you seem to have answered pretty well!"

At this time Ron walked in suddenly.

"Okay!" Owen responded, before waving goodbye to Lavender and her mother on the bed.

"You have to leave the hospital early, I'm afraid you won't be able to catch up with the next class." Before leaving, Hermione suddenly turned back to the hospital bed and waved her arms, saying goodbye to them happily.

Then, visible to the naked eye, the little witch instantly collapsed.Then he glared at her sullenly.

After leaving the ward, they happened to meet Harry.

He said that Sirius wanted to talk to Professor Lupine about something, and let them go to dinner first.

The sixth floor is a tea room and shop.

They sat in the tea room, ordered a few cups of black tea, and then the lady happily allowed them to use the tea room as a restaurant.

"Lavender looks a little strange." After eating, several people sat together and chatted.

A witch as clever as Hermione naturally saw something.

She said, "She actually likes eating bloody lollipops. This is the first time I've seen a wizard like that."

"." Owen gave her a blank look, rather focusing on the point - so unique!
Then he said: "Dumbledore also likes it"

"Professor Dumbledore? Doesn't he like anything sweet?" Harry complained ruthlessly, probably thinking of the silver plate full of cockroaches (cockroaches) in the headmaster's office.

"Yes, Professor Dumbledore is like this!" Ron agreed.

"Hey, hey, what's the matter with your magical attention?"

Owen stared at the three helplessly.

"Didn't you find that Lavender might become a vampire?" He looked at Hermione and said seriously.

"What?" The little witch covered her mouth with surprise.

The other two were also terrified.

"This needs to be investigated in detail. After she goes back, you can feed her some magic materials such as dragon blood to see if her magic power will skyrocket." Owen rubbed his head, "If she can absorb dragon blood If she has the magical power, then she may have become a vampire, if not, maybe after being bitten by the blood ancestor, she just likes bloody things?"

"I will." Hermione nodded solemnly.

As an extreme scholar who has read the entire "Fantastic Beasts" and memorized it backwards, she naturally knows the characteristics of vampires.

"Oh my god, I just remembered, she must have been bitten by a vampire!" Ron said in shock.

"I saw her pale face and thought it was because she was ill."

"Come on, it's not a big deal, it's just hard to accept. Being a vampire is better than being a werewolf." Owen patted his belly and stood up.

He greeted the three and prepared to return to Professor Lupine's ward.

On the stairs, there are many portraits of therapists hanging on both sides.

They yelled at the little wizards, diagnosed strange diseases, and thought up all kinds of terrible remedies.

For example, the freckles on Ron's face were regarded as flower pockets.

"What's that?" he asked angrily, and the healer had chased Ron six frames.

Warmheartedness is somewhat uncomfortable.

"This is a skin ailment, sir, and it will leave scars that will make you look less attractive than you are now—"

"Who do you think you don't like?" Ron blushed instantly.

Is he bluntly saying that he looks ugly?

"The only way is to take the liver of a toad and stick it to the throat, and stand naked in the eyes of a bucket of fish while looking at the sun and moonlight——"

"I don't have acne!"

"But you have obvious flaws in your face, young master——"

"Those are freckles!" Ron was furious. "You quack, go back to your own picture frame and stop pestering me!" He turned to the other people who were trying their best to keep their faces straight.

Then, in the expressions of the other three people living in Bengbu, they crossed the stairs and rushed to the fifth floor angrily.

Then because of recklessness, he bumped into a witch again.

There are too many people in the corridor.

"I'm so sorry." Ron said bluntly.

Then he looked up and saw a scary old witch.

She was wearing a green robe, covered in moth-eaten fox fur, and her pointed hat was obviously decorated with a stuffed vulture. Hermione took a half-step in surprise.

But Ron didn't back down in the slightest, he looked at the old witch without surprise.

Even commented on the stuffed vulture on her hat.

"My mother also bought one of the styles from the Transcendent Clothing Store 60 years ago. Of course, that one is second-hand." He turned and explained to Hermione.

"Wizards at that time liked to put animal specimens on their hats, which made them feel powerful and mysterious."

"."

These are all dark aesthetics.

"Then they should put Voldemort's noseless face on the hat, how powerful and mysterious it is." Owen complained.

He doesn't like the culture, music, costumes, etc. of the wizarding world.

So unorthodox.

For example, he wants to buy some furniture for his home.

In Diagon Alley, what you can buy is always Victorian style furniture from the [-]th to the [-]th century.

It's not that he doesn't like it, but he just has no choice.

It gives people a strong feeling that they have money and have no place to spend it.
