Chapter 526 Werewolf (Modified, Sincere Thanks to the Leader of the Alliance)
Allen smiled friendly at Lupine: "Don't be so outspoken, call me Allen, Professor Lupin. I brought the TV with me when I went to Durmstrang and saw the recent news."
"Stop calling me professor, I can no longer teach, Allen. I don't know why you brought me here to see you..." The boy in front of him had a friendly attitude, but Lupine did not let down his guard at all. Having received a warning from Dumbledore, he knew that although he was young, he was already a master of Legilimency. Therefore, although Lupine did not have very good control over Occlumency, he still tried hard to use it to prevent the other party from exploring.
Allen did not answer Lupine's question directly, but continued to ask: "Professor Luping, I wonder what your plans are next?"
"I haven't thought about it carefully, but what else can I do now? I will probably go back to find Sirius." Lu Ping tried his best to think about the purpose of the other party's question. Is he trying to subdue himself while he is now like a bereaved dog? ?
Allen shook his head at Lupin, "I think we can be more honest with each other. I'm sorry that you are so wary of me now, Professor, but I think you have also seen the story of Li Li published in the Daily Prophet. As for Tuskeet's fake news that suspected that you had infected Sirius with lycanthropy, from what I know about you, except for the secret activities of your Order of the Phoenix, you have no intention of going back to find Sirius. "
"In that case, tell me frankly, Allen, why did you bring me here to see you?" Lupine did not deny it. Thinking of the performance of the Harris family during the Goblet of Fire and the strength they now display, Lupine was worried. . The other party asked Penello to take him on a tour to see the armed forces and giants of his forces, which definitely had a purpose, as well as the television station, which was also the property of the Harris family. Voldemort has returned. Coupled with Fudge's attitude and the changes in the stance of the school directors after this incident, Dumbledore himself is already in trouble. However, Dumbledore asked the Order of the Phoenix not to take too many actions. And now if Harris wants to take the opportunity to do evil...
Allen took a few steps forward: "Professor Lupine, why do you think werewolves suffer these injuries in wizard society?"
Lupine frowned. Obviously the other person was not a person who would discriminate against werewolves from the perspective of what he knew. What was his purpose in asking him as a werewolf? He took a deep breath and tried his best to answer this question from the perspective of a bystander: "Because werewolves caused the death of many innocent victims?"
Allen shook his head and objected: "Far more victims die at the hands of dark wizards every year than at the mouths of werewolves. Many of the victims are lying on the product counters in Knockturn Alley and being sold as products. But even Hagrid visits Knockturn Alley from time to time. In fact, it's much easier to kill someone with a spell than with your teeth and claws."
Lu Ping followed the meaning revealed in Allen's words: "Are you trying to say the cause of the infection?"
"Yes, that's right. Ordinary wizards are much more discriminatory towards werewolves than they are towards humanoid creatures such as vampires, goblins, and Veela. This is because of contagiousness." Allen said with certainty.
"Although Wolfsbane Potion is a great invention, there is no magic potion in the world that can hinder the transformation process after being completely infected. In addition, Wolfsbane Potion itself needs to be taken regularly before the full moon to ensure that you transform into wolves. Stay sensible." Allen nodded this time, his tone calm, as if he was stating a fact.
"Although I don't like Urimqi, what she said is quite good. Since you were tampered with this time, there is really no way to guarantee that your medicine will not be tampered with next time. If It was okay in the third grade, but this year, when Dumbledore knew that Voldemort was resurrected and started fighting with Fudge, in order to avoid the situation of being unable to find a professor willing to teach Defense Against the Dark Arts, Fudge found an opportunity. When people from the Ministry of Magic are inserted into Hogwarts, choosing to invite you back is indeed risking the safety of others." Allen glanced at Lupin, who was thinking deeply, and continued.
"You should be lucky that it seems someone from Fudge's side was tampering with your potion this time. Otherwise, if it had been someone from Voldemort who had tampered with your potion, you would be in Azkaban by now. And this is not the first case. , in fact, when Dumbledore asked you to come to Hogwarts in the early years, he was taking risks with other people's lives or the future. If James Potter hadn't finally awakened, Snake was deceived by him. Professor Snape may have been killed by you in the Shrieking Shack or was infected and turned into a werewolf. What's even more ironic is that Professor Snape must also bear the cruel fact of being saved by the person he hates most in his life. "
Lupine felt that the scars he had just healed due to the performance of the students were ruthlessly torn open, and the bloody wounds were exposed to the air again. He wanted to open his mouth to refute, but he couldn't find a reason at all, which made him feel annoyed, "What on earth are you doing?" What do you want to say? Did you ask me to come here just to analyze for me how correct your suggestion not to let me come to school was? You just admitted that Voldemort returned, why didn't you admit it on TV? What do you Harris want to do? Your protective umbrella The forces revealed in the company have grown so powerful. If you are willing to join forces with Dumbledore and the Order of the Phoenix..."
Allen put his hand on Lupine's shoulder to stop his questioning, which sounded a little excited and self-defeating, and then handed him the refilled cup of black tea.
"Please take a sip of tea and calm down, Professor Luping. I don't mean to disrespect you, and I certainly don't want to meet you to hurt you in front of you. I just want to tell you some of my thoughts frankly."
Allen waited until Lupine stopped being excited and suppressed his emotions before speaking, "Professor Lupine, what do you think is the reason why the progress of drugs related to lycanthropy is so slow?"
"Stop asking me questions in a roundabout way, Alan Harris, just tell me what you have to say directly." Lupine was obviously tired of Alan's way of talking.
Alan bowed slightly and apologized. "Please forgive my bad habits, then let me talk about my thoughts. The Ministry of Magic's policy on werewolves has always been confusing and inefficient. In 1637, the Ministry of Magic established a set of werewolf management regulations , which required werewolves to sign a pledge not to attack anyone and to lock themselves up securely once a month. Not surprisingly, no one signed, because no one was ready to walk into the Ministry of Magic and admit He was a werewolf himself. Later Werewolf Registries also faced this problem. The Werewolf Registry required werewolves to enter their names and personal details, but its information has been incomplete and unreliable for many years because Many newly bitten werewolves conceal their condition to avoid the inevitable humiliation and banishment. Management of werewolves has been wavering between the beasts and humanoids of the Department for the Control of Magical Creatures because none of them can be sure that you should Be classified as human or beast. For a period of time, the Werewolf Registry and Werewolf Capture Team were housed in the Beast Division, while a Werewolf Support Services Office was established in the Humanoid Division. No werewolves ever walked into the Support Services Office, for the same reason. There were also very few people signing up at the registry, and the support services office eventually closed.”
Lupine nodded, which was why he didn't register.
Allen took a sip of tea and then continued, "In the second half of the twentieth century, several potions were finally invented to alleviate the effects of transformation. The most successful of them was the wolfsbane we just mentioned. Potion. And what I want to say is exactly this. Why have werewolves appeared for so long, but the research on related potions is so slow? It is precisely because ordinary wizards lack understanding and research on you that they have serious discrimination and There are various rumors, and even some authorities, such as Professor Everett Pickard in his book "Wolf Lawlessness: Why Werewolves Don't Deserve to Live", that werewolves will permanently lose their sense of morality. The statement is patently false.”
Lupine clenched his fist tightly, "Yes, when he wrote this work, he only referred to the behavior of a few irrational werewolves and concluded that all of us werewolves will be like this. His work even caused many good-natured werewolves to suffer. The person who gave up on himself in despair really became the bad guy that he described himself to be.”
"It is precisely because of the lack of mutual cooperation that the research on werewolves, as well as related treatment methods and related potions, has progressed very slowly. In fact, in human form, werewolves may be as good as any human being, just Like you, Remus Lupin; or maybe as bad as Fenrir Greyback, who would try to bite or maim people in his human form, and for this purpose he would keep his nails as sharp as claws. . And the discrimination caused by werewolves because of their lack of understanding has made you further away from ordinary society, and ordinary wizards have deepened their discrimination and misunderstanding against you because of your self-exile avoidance. Your father...
Please forgive me for telling you a fact that he may not have told you. When you were four years old, your father, Leo Lupin, was summoned by the Ministry of Magic to seek help from authorities who studied dark creatures, seeking help to understand and contain them. These threatening rally invitations led to a meeting with Fenrir Greyback, the man suspected of causing the deaths of Muggle children. When he was teased by the other members about his expertise in boggarts, your mostly polite father was so enraged that he yelled 'Werewolf Only' in Fenrir Greyback's face. The end you deserve is death, so a few days before your fifth birthday, Greyback deliberately infected you with lycanthropy in revenge. "
Allen waited for Lupine to digest some of the news that was a bit difficult for him to accept, and then told him in a firm tone: "My purpose is to invite you to join my plan to change this status quo and fundamentally help you werewolves, even if it cannot Let you victims who have been transformed into werewolves turn back into humans, but as long as you can solve the incurable situation of being infected before transformation, or develop a longer-acting wolfsbane potion, the reason why werewolves are so severely discriminated against will be fundamentally solved. So before I tell you this purpose, I need to analyze for you the reasons for the current situation. Of course, today, even Muggle-born wizards will be discriminated against to a certain extent. Even if we achieve this goal, It should just turn you into a being similar to a vampire or a Veela, but at least this way you will be much less discriminated against. If you are still willing to return to Hogwarts as a professor by then, we Harris can too Convince those school directors for you."
After hearing this, Lu Ping thought for a moment and said: "I don't plan to go back to be a professor. Allen, is your purpose just to want me to join the umbrella and be used for research and experiments? If you can promise me, you The purpose is really to help werewolves, I think I am willing to be studied by you..."
"No, you misunderstood, Professor Lupin. In fact, if you just want experimental subjects, you have to decide whether they are enough. In fact, our umbrella has cooperated with the Department for the Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures of the Ministry of Magic. , when they capture those notorious werewolf criminals in the future, they will not send them to Azkaban, but to the underground laboratory built under our house."
Allen waved his hand to stop Lupine's imaginary self-sacrifice plan: "I mean, you are lucky among this group of unfortunate people. You have a few good friends who sincerely accept your identity, but even so, you It was only after reuniting with Sirius that my life became better. And now that report, as I just speculated, I am afraid that you have planned to go into self-exile again. Werewolves like you who work hard to maintain good will not It's hard to even feed and clothe yourself. I want to provide you with some positions in my company. First, you can get a place to live and a source of livelihood. Second, you can participate in this plan to save your tribe. Finally, I want to emphasize that this is not a charity to you. Those of you who will not be infected with lycanthropy again are very suitable to be the guards and guards of those evil werewolves, and help us with front-line work during the research to reduce the number of those evil werewolves. Ordinary people are at risk of being infected. If our umbrella successfully develops a better "wolfsbane potion" or even a magic potion to solve the infection, although the direct benefits will not be too much, it will still be very helpful in increasing the visibility of our company. Yes, I am very happy to provide this fee to achieve a win-win situation for both of us.”
Lupine was about to agree, but suddenly a question came to his mind: "I understand, Allen, but if you want to solve the infection problem, does that mean... you want to use living people for experiments?"
Allen did not shy away from this question and immediately nodded without any hesitation: "Yes, and according to the extensive research on the habits of werewolves by Professor Marlowe Forfein, the authority on werewolf research in England in the nineteenth century, he Discovered that almost all the werewolves he successfully interrogated had been wizards before being bitten. At the same time, he learned from the werewolves that Muggles and wizards "tasted" differently, and that Muggles were more likely to die after being bitten. . Therefore, the subjects of my infection experiments will all be wizards, but just like those evil werewolves, they will also be some heinous dark wizards. Instead of letting them be kissed by a dementor once, let them give back some value to this society, using This way of making up for the damage they have caused, I think, does not violate the moral principles, right? After all, if we complete it, there will be no more children unable to go to school due to lycanthropy, and some pain will be alleviated in the process of growing up."
Lupine opened his mouth again but didn't know how to refute. He knew that this behavior was wrong, but it almost became a life-saving straw for all their werewolves. No other wizard had the will to help them and the strength to do this. Point, during Lupine's hesitation, Allen's next words became the last straw for Lupine: "Do you still remember our agreement in the third grade? I think it's time for you to keep your promise."
Lupine finally reached out his hand, shook Allen's hand and agreed to join. "I remember that my promise was made without violating morality. However, for the future of the werewolves, although I cannot fully agree with this approach, I agree to your invitation. In addition, thank you for being so patient in persuading me. , Allen, I understand that whether or not I join will not have any impact on your plan."
Having achieved his goal, Allen turned around and sat back in his chair, "You're welcome, Professor Luping, you are welcome to join the Umbrella Company. By the way, you will get along well with your new boss. She is also your student. Hermione Granger is currently the main person in charge of the Umbrella Company, so let her discuss the salary issue with you."
Lupine nodded: "Hermione is really an outstanding witch. Not only does she have excellent grades, but also judging from the training class she manages, she has great management skills." After saying that, Lupine couldn't help but think of what happened in the classroom. The members of the training class who followed Hermione to cast the Patronus Charm because of Hermione's lead seemed to have practiced the Patronus Charm for a long time, and they were all physical Patronuses that exuded solid light, although Lupine had done something for them. I was grateful to be able to support myself in the end, but I was very worried when I thought about their relationship with Harris and saw their exposed power in the Umbrella Company today.
Thinking of this, Lupine hesitated and spoke again: "Alan...you and Dumbledore really can't...I..."
Allen sighed after hearing this and interrupted Lupine who was still organizing his words. UU看书 www.uukanshu.net "Professor Lupin, Dumbledore believed too much in that so-called prophecy. This obviously put me and him on opposite sides. I will be the one to defeat Voldemort, not the one he had high hopes for." Leigh. Dumbledore is too controlling, and he and I are actually the same kind of people. We tried to cooperate, but obviously the final result was not pleasant. To put it bluntly, we Harris have no obligation Just like you members of the Order of the Phoenix, blindly obeying his orders and sacrificing for his goals, no matter how well-intentioned his goals are, is not worth what I do. So I will not go against Fudge now for him or his goals. .I will accumulate my own strength and then defeat Voldemort personally. When you go back, you can tell him everything that happened, saw and heard today, and tell the Order of the Phoenix that I have no objection to this. We will get along with each other in the future. As time goes by, you will know that the difference between me and Dumbledore is that I like to tell my people the purpose of what I do, rather than just letting you go and complete it deliberately without telling the whole thing like he does."
Lupine also sighed and nodded. Just when he said goodbye to Allen and was about to leave, he found that Allen did not respond but pressed his arm with his hand, "Professor Lupin... please leave when you leave." Take Sirius away from the entrance building. He seems to have caused trouble with my aunt at the Ministry of Magic because of you. After being chased away by her, he found out that you were here, but was restrained by the guards when he broke in. Don't worry. , he was not injured, but I think you have to explain to him what happened, and then persuade him not to be so impulsive next time."
