Hogwarts: Voldemort, don't stop me from studying

Michael nodded.

In the plot, Dumbledore only told Harry and his three-man team about the Horcruxes, but did not tell the members of the Order of the Phoenix who followed him through life and death.

Wade didn't understand it before, but after living in this world, Wade gradually came to understand his actions.

Everyone in the wizarding world holds a wand, which is equivalent to everyone holding a gun.

Originally, they would only use it to clean, brew potions, and resist harm, but if someone told them that this "gun" could also kill people, and that killing people could make them immortal...

Even if some people can stick to their positions and morals today, how do we know that they will not change in the future?

Even if he himself was dismissive of Voldemort's "resurrection", what if it were his parents, lover, or children?

So it has nothing to do with trust and it has nothing to do with character.

Some evil things should remain a permanent secret.

……

After the Horcrux is destroyed, it means that the club activities are successfully completed.

But they did not go back immediately. At Lupin's invitation, they decided to go to his home in Hogsmeade to rest for a while, go to Hogsmeade to play in the afternoon, and return to school in the evening.

Lupin's house is located in a remote area, very close to the Shrieking Shack. Because of the ghost legends nearby, the house is sold at a very low price.

This is a three-story building, with a loft on top, that looks like a skinny chicken leg mushroom. There is also a fence next to it, where a dozen chickens and a goat are raised.

Further away is a rectangular vegetable garden, where lettuce, snow vegetables, tomatoes, strawberries, etc. are planted. It is surrounded by colorful flowers such as cornflowers, dahlias, and peonies.

Wizards are generally used to being self-sufficient. Lupin didn't have this opportunity before, but after he had a stable place to stay, he learned from others to take care of his home properly.

With the help of magic, planting and breeding are much simpler than for ordinary people.

After entering the door, there is a spacious living room, and the fire in the fireplace is automatically burning. The hanger by the door is bent down, so that the little wizards can hang their coats on it.

There is also a small door on the side, and you can see the kitchen over there.

"It's really nice, isn't it?" Ryan looked around the room and said, "It's much more spacious inside than it looks from the outside."

Lupin directed the teapot and teacups to fly out of the kitchen, poured each person a cup of hot tea, and took out cookies and cakes to entertain the little guests.

Michael leaned against the fireplace and looked at the pictures on the wall.

There were pictures of Lupin and Harry standing together, Vader and Harry, and Harry holding a goat.

One of the photos was clearly of Lupin when he was young. He had the same gentle smile on his face that he had now.

There is also a black-haired boy in the photo who looks very similar to Harry, wearing glasses and with messy hair. He should be Harry Potter's father.

Next to him was a fat, short boy with round eyes, a pointed nose, and a shy smile.

His appearance and eyes made Michael subconsciously think of a mouse.

There was another person in the photo, whose black hair could only be seen. He was very close to James Potter, but his face was obscured.

"Who is this person?" Michael couldn't help asking.

"A person of no consequence."

Lupin came over quickly and took the picture off the wall: "I forgot to put this away."

He placed the photo face down on the table, then smiled and asked the others, "What would you like to eat for lunch?"

While Lupin was in the kitchen, directing the clinking of pots and spatulas as lunch was made, Michael whispered to Wade, "His face has changed... It must be someone important."

"Don't ask around, or you'll get beaten."

Theo whispered, "I've heard of that man... Sirius Black, the most notorious Death Eater and the one who betrayed Harry's father."

Chapter 136 The Eagle Who Cherishes His Life

"Were they friends before?" Michael asked.

"Best friend." Theo paused and added, "...I heard."

"Where is that person now?" Ryan asked.

"Azkaban, of course."

Wade looked up at the empty spot where the photo was and said nothing.

After lunch, everyone went to visit Hogsmeade.

Theo had been here several times before with his parents, and it was the first time for Michael and Ryan to visit this famous village. They rushed into the shop and were so excited that they wanted to buy everything.

Wade and Lupin fell behind. The middle-aged wizard looked at the happy children with a look of relief but also a hint of melancholy.

"Next time I have a day off, I'll bring Harry with me," Wade said sympathetically.

"That would be great if you could."

Lupin smiled like a silly dad: "I didn't feel anything when I was alone before, but now... there's one less person at home, and it feels like the whole house is empty."

"Please keep today's events secret from Harry," Wade said. "He is living a carefree life now. There is no need for him to be involved in Tom's affairs."

Lupin naturally agreed.

He remembered the doubts in his mind before, and said, "Weid, remember the dark shadow in the cave?"

"Of course," Vader said.

"If you just inject thoughts into it, it won't form a real form, as if it has an independent soul."

Lupin said worriedly, "With Voldemort... Tom's level of magic, he must have mastered a lot of dark magic that we can't understand. The danger of the crown is beyond my expectation."

"Fortunately, you were very cautious and never came into direct contact with it."

"Of course, it's been destroyed now... but if you come across something like this in the future, be careful."

He did not suspect that Vader was hiding something from him, but he thought that Vader, based on his current knowledge, had misjudged the terrifying extent of Voldemort's weapon.

Vader said seriously, "Of course, I will."

"Just to be safe, let me check again." Lupin asked, "You didn't come across any other 'Tom's weapons', did you? You didn't, did you?"

Wade looked away and said, "Even Tom wouldn't have a lot of that kind of stuff, right?"

Lupin looked at him and sighed: "Let me teach you the Fiery Curse."

"Okay!" Wade smiled and said frankly, "I've been waiting for this."

"Promise me that you won't use it until you have full control!"

"Of course, I agree."

"You must discuss anything with me first, don't do it on your own."

"I know."

Vader agreed to all of this, but Lupin still looked a little worried.

When everyone returned to school through the Vanishing Cabinet, Wade was still the last person to enter.

"Thank you, Remus."

Before closing the cabinet door, Wade said with a smile: "But don't think of me as a reckless lion. I am an eagle who cherishes my life."

Lupin was stunned.

The black cabinet door had closed, and the people inside had already arrived at Hogwarts.

Lupin smiled bitterly and said to himself: "Not all lions are reckless."

He picked up the upside-down photo, stroked it with his fingers, and the piece of paper stuck on it floated down.

The black-haired boy in the photo showed a happy and uninhibited smile, looking very smart and full of energy.

Lupin felt a pang in his heart.

"...Isn't there still a poisonous snake hidden here...that no one can see?"

……

Back to school, everyone has a common secret, and they seem to be closer to each other. They go to the umbrella house and find only Padma, and then they learn that Harry has entered the infirmary.

"What's going on?" Ryan asked.

"Are they fighting Malfoy again?" Theo made a reasonable guess.

"No. Harry fell off his broom during Quidditch practice," said Padma.

Wade frowned slightly. "Did he lose control of his broom? Or was he hit by a Bludger?"

——Dobby came to school so early to cause trouble?

“No,” Padma said, “he wasn’t hurt. He just fainted.”

……

In the school infirmary, Harry was lying on the bed, just waking up, surrounded by several Gryffindor students and team members.

There is also a little boy (Colin Creevey) holding a camera to record the moment Harry wakes up.

"I'm fine." Harry pushed the camera away and said helplessly, "Thank you, Colin. But I don't want to take a photo now."

"Was it scary when you fell?" Colin asked loudly, looking quite excited for some reason.

"It's scary to fall down suddenly." Team captain Wood patted Harry on the shoulder and said, "Have a good rest today, and we will continue training tomorrow morning."

"Are you a devil?" Ron was so shocked that he blurted out subconsciously.

Fred held his shoulder and said sadly, "What do you think? Ronnie... the team is very cruel."

George said seriously: "Of course Wood is not the devil... He is much scarier than the devil."

Wood tapped each twin on the head, then began to explain how important their new tactics were, how the players' coordination was terrible, but the game was imminent (actually still two months away).

The Weasley twins both put on masks of pain.

Angelina (another team member) gloated at the two and laughed silently.

While Wood wasn't paying attention, Fred made a face at her.
