Chapter 403 I Didn’t Expect You to See Through My Identity so Quickly!
Ever since he learned about Ivan's deeds at Hogwarts, Lupine had been anxious for a long time, fearing that one day Ivan would come to his door, reveal his identity as a werewolf, and expel him from school. .
Especially after Snape plotted against him a few days ago and showed the Wolfsbane potion in front of Ivan, Lupine became even more uneasy.
After experiencing such a relaxed and happy teaching life, he naturally did not want to return to his original days of having no fixed place to live and no food to eat.
Fortunately, Ivan had not come to trouble him in the past few days. This discovery made Lu Ping feel relieved, thinking that Ivan had not discovered his identity and acted more naturally.
Unfortunately, facts have proven that what is supposed to come will eventually come. From the action of locking the door, it is not difficult to see that the little wizard in front of him is obviously coming with bad intentions.
Lu Ping smiled bitterly, but with the last glimmer of hope, he asked anxiously.
"Hals, why did you come to see me?"
"Professor Lupin, I have something I want to talk to you about alone. Or maybe I should call you Mr. Moon-faced differently!" Ivan felt that since we were going to talk about the Marauder's Map and Peter, it would be better to use this title. Up some.
After hearing this familiar title, Lu Ping felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar. He did not expect that Ivan would even investigate this.
Lupine didn't take any chances anymore. After all, the title Moon Face was based on his werewolf characteristics.
Since Ivan had thrown out all this secretive identity, he obviously wanted to show that he knew everything about him, so naturally he locked the door to prevent himself from escaping.
Thinking of this, Lupine sighed and said.
"Hals! I didn't expect that my identity would be discovered by you so quickly. As everyone said, you are the best student in the history of Hogwarts. Unfortunately, I'm afraid I can't give you any more points for this." Got it!"
After his identity was discovered by Ivan, Lupine had no intention of hating Ivan.
It is indeed inappropriate for a werewolf to be a professor. Not to mention the scared students and worried parents, even he himself sometimes worries about whether he will lose control and hurt others one day.
So even if he knew that he would lose his current job because of this, Lupine would not blame Ivan. After all, this little wizard was just doing what he should do.
But there was one thing that Lu Ping couldn't understand, that was, how could Ivan dare to come alone to the office of his werewolf professor, knowing that he was a werewolf? Aren't you worried that he would suddenly get angry and hurt someone?
Fighting a werewolf in such a closed space is not a good choice!
Is it absolute confidence in one's own strength?
Lupine couldn't help but think of the previous two Defense Against the Dark Arts professors who were kicked out.
Although he didn't know if they would have the same experience as him, it was obviously impossible for everyone to be as helpless as he was.
Judging from the fate of these people, Ivan does have this proud capital. If he really takes action, he may not be able to defeat this little wizard.
"What are you talking about, professor?" Ivan asked doubtfully as he looked at Lupine, who was holding a large suitcase and seemed to be preparing to pack up and leave.
Soon, Ivan guessed some of his thoughts and continued talking dumbfounded. "If you are referring to the issue of werewolf identity, then you can rest assured, I am not talking about that!"
Lupine paused in packing his luggage and looked at Ivan in confusion, not quite understanding what Ivan meant.
If you weren't here to reveal your identity and get rid of yourself, then why did you lock the door?
And from Ivan's words, Lupine heard a message. The little wizard in front of him already knew his identity as a werewolf wizard.
"Professor Lupine, if you have read last year's Daily Prophet, you should understand that I actually don't have any bad opinions about werewolf wizards. On the contrary, I have many werewolf friends, and I came up with it because I learned about their plight in life. Ideas for making wolfsbane potion"
Ivan talked so eloquently that Lupine would be startled every time he saw him. He felt that it would be better to explain this matter clearly now.
After hearing this, Lu Ping finally felt relieved.
Before taking up the professorship at Hogwarts, he had to plan carefully for accommodation and food every day. How could he have the money to order every issue of the Daily Prophet?
Dumbledore told him about the Wolfsbane Potion through a letter.
Coupled with all the encounters in the magic world over the years, and Ivan's "record" in driving away two Defense Against the Dark Arts professors, Lupine was so wary of Ivan.
Lupine smiled bitterly when he remembered that he had deliberately avoided Ivan in order to conceal the identity of the werewolf wizard. He never thought that Ivan had already known his identity, but he just never said it.
"Hals, since it's not a matter of my identity, is there any other reason why you came to me today? And how did you know the name Moon Face?" Lu Ping adjusted his mood and turned to curiosity. asked.
Ivan did not answer directly, but took out a piece of shabby-looking parchment from the pocket of the wizard's robe and placed it on the table.
Lupine's eyes were attracted by this piece of parchment, and surprise and nostalgia flashed in his eyes. After a while, he looked at Ivan again and smiled.
"What a coincidence! I didn't expect you to get this thing. No wonder you know the name Moon Face. It seems you have cracked its secret!"
"No, it wasn't me! It was George and Fred who cracked it!" Ivan shook his head, not taking credit.
"George and Fred? Those Weasley twins? Their performance in class impressed me deeply."
Lupine said with a smile that Lupine still had a good impression of George and Fred who often made mischief in class, because that usually reminded him of the days when he and James and Peter were exploring together in school.
Ivan added without stopping. "As for the meanings represented by several titles, I also learned about them from their producers."
Lupine's smile suddenly froze, and he frowned and looked at Ivan. "You said you knew it was Sirius from the other makers? What exactly did he tell you that night?"
"No, I found out these secrets from the mouth of another producer!" Ivan didn't dare to push these things on Sirius, otherwise he and Lupine would be able to easily judge him one day. He's lying, so just dump it on Peter.
Anyway, this guy doesn't remember anything. All he has to do is say that he cast a forgetting spell on Peter after interrogation.
