I swung a sword at Hogwarts

John rubbed the original wound, and there was no sign of injury at all.

That price is still outrageous.

John once wondered if there were middlemen in fairy magic.

Walking briskly to the edge of yesterday's forbidden forest, John stared at the tree he had crushed.

"It seems like he held back."

John recalled the battle last night. Sirius did not use any offensive spells against him. Instead, he used spells to trap and disarm the enemy.

Then he bit himself, it seemed he was desperate.

Thinking of this, John walked deeper into the forbidden forest.

Before entering, he paused and turned his head to look at Luna, whose eyes met his.

"Luna, what are you doing here?"

John walked over, and Luna came over as if in a daze. Her voice was ethereal, as if she was singing, "I was looking for a Scimitar-Horned Snorkeller. There were a lot of harassment flies on Longbottom, so I came out."

"?"

There was a question mark on John's head. Luna pointed at his face and said, "You have a lot of harassment flies now."

Harassing horseflies?

He turned on his insight and didn't see anything like it.

"They were invisible, and they would float into your ears and mess with your mind," Luna intoned. "Now they're gone."

John raised his eyebrows. He was indeed confused just now.

Looking at Luna who was still trying to move forward, John said, "It's very dangerous there. When we have time, I'll go with you to find the Scimitar-Horned Snorkeller."

After being bitten, he was a little confused, but fortunately Luna's appearance brought him back to his senses.

John smiled as if he was looking at his own sister, even though he didn't have a sister.

Luna nodded and skipped over to John's side.

John silently looked down at her white and tender feet that were covered in mud without any concern, frowned and asked, "Your shoes were hidden again?"

He knew that Luna didn't seem to be popular in Ravenclaw, and now it seemed that the group of young eagles were a bit of a bully.

"My shoes are magical. They play hide-and-seek when I fall asleep." Luna didn't care.

John thought about it, nodded and said, "Then I'll give you a pair of shoes that won't play hide-and-seek."

Luna smiled. She rarely smiled and most of the time she looked dazed.

John drew out his wand and summoned clean water to wash the dirty mud off Luna's feet, then took off his shoes and put them on her.

The wand tapped the upper, and the oversized shoe shrank to fit.

John stood there barefoot and shrugged, "Now these shoes won't play hide-and-seek, you can rest assured."

Luna looked at the shooting star shoes carefully and her mood became better.

John walked barefoot in front and asked as he walked, "Can you tell me what a Scimitar-Horned Snorkeller is?"

Luna followed in the footsteps and said leisurely beside him: "It lives in Sweden, can't fly in the sky, has curved horns, and looks like a calf..."

The ethereal voice echoed in the empty forest like a song.

Many people saw John walking Luna back to Ravenclaw Tower barefoot, and some Ravenclaw students lost their smiles when they saw it.

Their mouths opened and closed and John heard 'crazy girl'.

He looked up and saw a sense of pressure falling on the Ravenclaw who was discussing.

Several students screamed and ran away, and John saw Luna turn her head, so he smiled and waved.

Leaving Ravenclaw's tower, John headed to Professor Snape's office.

As he opened the door, John stared at Snape's hair.

Well, not much better than Sirius Black.

Snape looked coldly as he lowered his head to see John's muddy feet.

The two were silent for a while, and John asked, "So, Professor Lupin was not the only one involved in the murder, right?"

Snape raised his eyes, his tone revealing impatience, "I told you, John Wick, that werewolf is not a good guy."

"He's with Sirius Black."

John looked at Snape and paused before continuing, "And Harry's father."

"You've worked so hard for so long just to investigate these. If this is the case, then Mr. Wick, you disappoint me." Snape's tone was sarcastic, as if to say that this was all you did.

John ignored it and walked up to Snape, "So... the person who was murdered was you, Professor, right?"

After these words were spoken, Snape's face turned completely dark, and John could see his face trembling.

"John Wick, you know a lot. Lupin might be proud to tell you about those days."

In the end, Snape held back, pursed his upper lip, and had only a hair's length of patience left before he could get angry.

"No," John shook his head, looking at Snape's expression that was about to get angry, and said lightly: "Sirius Black told me."

Snape stood up suddenly, his eyes fixed on John.

His face was trembling, and he squeezed out the words from between his teeth word by word: "You met him, the damned Azkaban fugitive, Sirius Black."

His expression was filled with anger and embarrassment, mixed with obvious murderous intent.

"Tell me... where is that damned guy!"

...

Chapter 153 Snape's Past and Alliance

This was the first time John had seen the dean behave himself.

In the past, no matter how many points Professor Snape deducted, he would at most be sarcastic for a moment.

And now, he was gritting his teeth, and one could even see murderous intent in his eyes.

After realizing that he had lost his composure, Snape adjusted his mood.

Memories of my younger self kept coming back to my mind.

Four bastards from Gryffindor, especially James Potter and Sirius Black.

They were two of the most annoying guys, and from the first day Snape boarded his train to Hogwarts, he was destined to be at odds with them.

Not to mention what happened afterwards, which became the most difficult scar to erase in Snape's life.

John looked at his dean's face, which was like a dyeing factory, with colorful and complex emotions changing alternately.

Sometimes his face was filled with anger, then sadness, and the next moment he was gritting his teeth as if he wanted to kill someone.

He was stunned. Could it be that his dean had a split personality?

In the end, all of this turned into a cold expression on Snape's face. He looked at John and asked, "Where did you meet him?"

Reason overcame impulse, and although Snape wanted to grab Sirius Black and press his head down to kiss the Dementors, he still paid attention to John's words.

That's a dangerous man.

"The Forbidden Forest," John began. "He's in the Forbidden Forest, but I don't want to tell the Aurors."

"Hmm? John Wick, perhaps you should know how dangerous that man is."

Snape narrowed his eyes dangerously, and said with sarcasm in his tone: "No one in the school will be willing to play a hero with you."

He thought John thought that one man could catch Sirius Black and become a hero of the school.

John shook his head and chuckled, "Isn't the professor still here?"

Looking straight at Snape, John said, "Don't you think Sirius Black's behavior yesterday in going to Ron Weasley's bed was very suspicious?"

He was talking to himself: "He was able to enter the Gryffindor Tower, so there must be an insider. How could he not know where the savior Harry Potter is?"

Snape was no fool. He showed a thoughtful expression on his face and sneered, "So you think the Muggles he killed are innocent?"

"He went to great lengths to escape from Azkaban just to kill Harry Potter."

Snape's disgust for Sirius Black was clearly written on his face.

"Then we should catch Sirius Black and ask him clearly, right?" John seemed to have expected Snape's reaction. "You should know that Sirius Black is not the kind of person who would even make a mistake in choosing a bed."

Although he wanted to let the Aurors take Sirius away and send him to fight the Dementors, Snape admitted that he was indeed very strange. He looked at John deeply and said sarcastically: "Do you think I will definitely help you?"

"That would also help the school, and I'm sure the professor wouldn't refuse."

Know that your portion is not enough.

John smiled and added, "And Harry."

Snape's smile faded and he shooed John out.

John shrugged. What a strange old tsundere. Whenever something happens to Harry, you are always the first one to show up. Now you are acting reserved, aren’t you?

All I can say is that my dean loves me deeply, and he is worthy of being the most affectionate person in the Harry Potter series.

Even if the girl he loved most was married off to the man he hated the most, he was still willing to protect her child at all costs.

To be honest, he makes me cry.

Although Snape didn't say it explicitly, John knew that he would definitely help him.

Apart from anything else, Snape was willing to do it just to beat up his old enemy.

With the help of the Dean, John encounters Sirius again and is able to capture him.

...

hall.

John ate less and less. In the past, he would want to clean up everything, but now he just ate plain water and bread.

Those who don’t know would think that he is practicing hard.

Because of this, John's cheeks became sunken and he looked thinner, as if he had anorexia.

After the plain bread was finished, a large group of owls flew into the auditorium.

One of them landed in front of Neville. Apart from his cowardly character, Neville had changed drastically.

Especially the face, the originally round face has become thinner, the muscles on the body have increased a lot, and the arm lines are bigger than others.

Now, without his wand, Neville can kill any kid with one punch.

But after receiving the red envelope sent by the owl, he became the same Neville as before.

Even though Neville ran out of the auditorium with the howling letter, the terrifying volume still tore through the quiet auditorium.

Old Mrs. Longbottom's level of cursing is comparable to Molly Weasley's.

Seeing Malfoy's gloating expression, John very considerately added a weighted running event for him.

Malfoy's expression turned into pain now. He could refuse, but he didn't.

The project that John set up for him could make people feel that they were getting stronger. Although he seemed to be in pain, he actually liked this feeling.

The notice board announced that people could go to Hogsmeade next week.

John meets Filch and looks at him in disbelief as he is covered in sandbags.

"What are you doing?"

Filch said darkly, "I lost to a student that day. He used inertia to turn the corner. He was very fast. All I saw was black hair and a school uniform."

John: "..."

How should I tell him tactfully that hardware upgrades also have limitations and I am cheating.

The school badge that was dumped that night was not even visible, which greatly irritated Filch.

As the object of hatred of all students in the school, how could he fail in speed?

After that, he stopped paying attention to John and ran back and forth in the corridor.
