Chapter 419 Poor Harry

"Why? Where is Professor Lupin?" Harry asked in a very sharp tone.

"He's been feeling very unwell these days, so he can't teach you any lessons," Snape explained, then sneered. "And Potter, you'd better figure it out. He specifically begged me to help teach these days!"

Harry didn't believe a word of it!

Everyone in the school knew that Nap had always wanted to be the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, and he had always had conflicts with Lupine.

For example, Neville once dressed up the Boggart-turned-Snape in women's clothing in Lupin's class, and won Lupine's admiration.

Harry thought that Snape might have a grudge to murder Professor Lupin when Dumbledore was not at school, so he insisted that Snape tell him how Professor Lupin was doing.

"I'll just say it once, he's still alive and well, his life is not in danger!" Snape's face showed an impatient expression, his empty eyes stared at Harry, and he scolded.

"It's class time now, sit down, Potter!"

However, Harry had no intention of moving. He was more worried about Lupin's situation than being punished by Snape.

"Ten points have been deducted from Gryffindor! If you don't sit down within three seconds, I will deduct another fifty points!" Snape said word by word.

Harry was very angry, but had no choice but to sit down in frustration, because Snape had already started counting by himself, and he knew very well that Snape always kept his word when it came to deducting points.

"Don't worry, Harry, Professor Lupin is fine." Ivan, who was sitting next to him, saw Harry's frustrated and worried look and couldn't help but comfort him.

Ivan knew Lupin's situation very well. It was entirely because he took the wolfsbane potion near the full moon night that he suffered from physical weakness and discomfort.

What puzzled Ivan was that he remembered that the wolfsbane potion he made based on the formula given by the system did not have this defect.

I don't know if this flaw exists because Snape didn't do the reverse cracking thoroughly enough, or if he deliberately wanted to fix Lupine.

"Have you seen Professor Lupine in the past two days? How is he?" Harry lowered his voice and asked anxiously. He wondered whether Lupine was seriously ill or was being targeted by Snape. Otherwise, it won’t be to the point where I can’t come to class.

Ivan couldn't tell him about Lupine being a werewolf, so he had no choice but to say that he had seen Lupine yesterday and that there was nothing serious wrong with him. He was really just feeling a little unwell.

Harry finally let go of his worries.

Snape's Defense Against the Dark Arts class was very different from Lupin's. There was not so much fun and laughter, but only cold knowledge and a voice that deducted points from Gryffindor from time to time.

Not only that, Snape directly ignored the progress of the course and asked everyone to turn the book to page 394 to learn how to identify and kill a werewolf!

"Potter, tell me how to find a werewolf wizard hiding in the crowd?"

During class, Snape suddenly asked.

"I don't know, Professor! We haven't learned this yet. According to the course flow, we should learn now" Harry started to explain.

"I'm in class now! I don't need you to teach me what to do!" Snape interrupted Harry directly, then turned to look around the classroom and said with great disappointment.

“I really didn’t expect that a bunch of third graders couldn’t tell a werewolf.

It seems that when your Principal Dumbledore comes back, I must emphasize to him that our new Defense Against the Dark Arts professor is not as competent as he thought! "

The Gryffindor wizards present all had indignant expressions, and even a few Slytherin students disagreed with Snape's statement.

It wasn't Professor Lupine's fault that they were slow to learn the course.

This was entirely due to the fact that their first two Defense Against the Dark Arts professors were terrible, and Lupine had to give them bad lessons.

Moreover, the knowledge about werewolves is obviously on the last page of the book. According to the plan, it will be learned at the end of this semester.

Ivan shook his head secretly in his heart. Snape really spared no effort in targeting Lupine. Learning these first was just hoping that someone could pass this knowledge and reveal Lupin's identity as a werewolf.

"Quiet!" Looking at the little wizards whispering below, Snape increased his volume to stop their behavior.

Then Snape ignored Hermione's raised hands and taught everyone how to distinguish a werewolf wizard by some facial features.

He also emphasized the brutality of werewolves, and even bluntly stated that there would be several werewolf attacks in the magical world every once in a while, and some timid little wizards almost thought they were hearing some horror story.

"In addition, an important feature that distinguishes werewolf wizards from ordinary wizards is that every full moon night, they will be forced to transform into an irrational werewolf, causing great damage."

At this point, Snape paused, and then continued: "In order to hide themselves, some werewolves will regularly drink a magic potion called wolfsbane potion, so that they can have certain abilities while in the transformed state. reason"

Wolfsbane potion?

Hearing this name, many young wizards turned their heads and looked at Ivan. If they remembered correctly, last year Ivan won a second-level Merlin Medal for developing the Wolfsbane potion.

"Oh, it seems I almost forgot, we also have an expert in werewolf research here." Snape's eyes were also on Ivan, with a slightly disappointed expression on his face.

"Unfortunately, our experts don't seem to understand werewolves as well as reported."

Snape was extremely dissatisfied with Ivan's failure to reveal Lupin's identity for several months. He suspected that Ivan had actually discovered Lupin's identity, but for some reason he did not reveal it clearly.

The little wizards below couldn't understand what Snape was saying.

Only Ivan knew what Snape wanted to express, but he didn't intend to do it.

He didn't even mean to stand up and answer questions in this class, because he was worried that talking too much might increase the possibility of Lu Ping being exposed.

A Defense Against the Dark Arts lesson quickly came to an end under Snape's gloomy voice.

After class, Harry came out of the classroom and walked in the corridor. He couldn't help but vent the anger he had been holding in for the whole class.

"Why do we have to learn to distinguish the difference between normal wizards and werewolf wizards? This is obviously not the course we should learn now. Does Snape think there will be a werewolf lurking around us? This is really ridiculous!"
