Chapter 420 Welcome to Hogsmeade!
Faced with Harry's complaint, Ron immediately agreed, feeling that the level of Professor Snape's courses was far inferior to Professor Lupin's!
Ivan didn't reply, because Harry unexpectedly guessed it right, and Hermione was also silent, seeming to be thinking about something.
At this moment, another voice suddenly rang in the corridor.
"That's not necessarily true, Potter! I guess you must not have listened carefully to Professor Snape's lectures. Maybe there really is a werewolf lurking in the school, and maybe he is the one closest to you!"
Everyone turned to look over, but it was Malfoy who walked over with his two followers arrogantly.
Malfoy first glanced at Harry with disdain, then spoke to Ivan confidently. "Wait, Hals, I will find the evidence before you do!"
Malfoy had a proud expression on his face, and what he said confused Harry and Ron even more, but Malfoy ignored them and left Ivan with these words before walking away.
"Does Malfoy think any of us are werewolves? This idea is ridiculous!" Ron complained.
Harry nodded. He was very sure that his friends were not werewolf wizards, because no one took any wolfsbane potion regularly, or disappeared suddenly on a full moon night.
Hermione thought of something and hesitated to speak. She turned to look at Ivan, only to find that Ivan shook his head at her.
The little witch immediately understood that Ivan had already known the identity of the werewolf wizard Lupin, and swallowed the words that came to her mouth.
Ivan was not surprised that Hermione could discover Lupin's identity. Hermione had already guessed Lupin's identity based on various clues in the original time and space, let alone now.
But Malfoy was able to guess it, which surprised Ivan.
Could it be his own fault that caused Malfoy to work hard and become shrewd?
Ivan thought of what Malfoy had said to him some time ago. At that time, he didn't quite understand what Malfoy meant, but now he couldn't understand it more clearly.
Fortunately, it seemed that Malfoy had not found conclusive evidence, but just suspected that Lupine was a werewolf. Otherwise, he should have told the professors long ago.
Thinking of this, Ivan also had a headache. He didn't want Lu Ping to be exposed and fired from his position as professor like in the original time and space.
However, Ivan could not think of any way to target Malfoy and make him stop investigating Lupin.
Malfoy is not Peter Pettigrew, and using the Oblivion Curse on him is extremely risky.
Because Ivan doesn't know exactly when Malfoy began to suspect Lupine. If he directly wiped out the other person's memory of the past few months, even a fool would be able to see the problem!
Even if Ivan is sure that he can do it very secretly so that others will not suspect him, but who knows if Malfoy has told others about his guess.
If the identity of the werewolf Lupine is discovered, and no other murderer is found, he will definitely become the number one suspect in attacking Malfoy.
When the time comes, Lucius will most likely use his influence to characterize the matter when he is angry, and Lupine will be imprisoned in Azkaban for attacking students.
Ivan thought for a long time and felt that he could only provide Lupine with some genuine wolfsbane potions in the future, so that Lupine would not need to take leave every month. This should be able to effectively reduce the probability of being discovered and how long it would last. How long is it
Just thinking about things like this, several people went to the auditorium to have lunch.
After complaining for a while, Harry quickly put aside the unpleasantness of the class, considering that he was going to Hogsmeade later. After eating in a hurry, he returned to the dormitory to take care of him. The invisibility cloak was taken out.
Ron also dug out his pocket money from his suitcase. Although there was only a few Silver Sickles, he solemnly took only half and put it into the pocket of his wizard robe.
Of course Ron has not forgotten his most cherished mouse Scabbers!
It is worth mentioning that Scabbers did not want to leave the safety of the Gryffindor dormitory and wander outside. He clutched the pillow with his little paws in protest, and his screams were even more earth-shattering.
Seeing this state, Ron was very embarrassed and a little at a loss, thinking about leaving Banban in the dormitory.
"Collapse!"
A ray of red light flew past and hit the gray-black mouse. Banban's eyes widened and he fainted with a squeak!
"Okay, isn't it done?" Ivan slowly put away his wand and said with satisfaction.
He was worried that Banban would run away halfway, but now this problem was perfectly solved!
Ron opened his mouth and looked at Ivan with a strange expression, but in the end he said nothing. He also felt that his pet rat had been a little nervous recently and it would be best to take a nap while he was out.
"Let's go quickly, I can't wait!" Harry had already changed his clothes at this time, grabbed a handful of gold galleons, looked at Ivan, and said expectantly.
Ivan nodded, and the three of them walked out of the Gryffindor lounge together. Hermione was already waiting outside. She was still a little unwilling, and tried for the last time to persuade Harry to stay in school.
"We always have to go outside. Harry can't hide in Hogwarts Castle all his life. A truly brave Gryffindor shouldn't be afraid of anything!" Ron said confidently.
Hermione stared at him very dissatisfied. Being brave is not the same as being reckless, nor does it mean seeking death.
In this noisy atmosphere, Ivan led everyone to a remote corridor on the fourth floor of the castle and stopped in front of the statue of a hunchbacked witch.
"Separate left and right!" Ivan stretched out his wand and tapped lightly on the statue.
With a soft "rumbling" sound, the statue's hunchback automatically opened to both sides, revealing a long and narrow dark passage, which could accommodate a thin person.
"Come in!" Ivan said, then got in first and jumped into the dark space below.
"I always feel like we are doing something bad!" Harry looked at the dark entrance and couldn't help complaining.
"Originally, if you are caught out, Professor McGonagall will definitely deduct 100 points from us!" Hermione rolled her eyes, but still followed in immediately.
Harry and others followed Ivan all the way, walking under the starlight of the light spell.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, just when Harry felt a little sore in his legs and was about to ask a question, Ivan suddenly stopped and tapped the sky with his wand, and a trap door was pushed open.
The dazzling light shone through the opening, causing Harry and others to squint their eyes in discomfort. Ivan jumped up directly, turned his head and said to them.
"Come up, this is it. Welcome to Hogsmeade!"
