Harry Potter: The Path of Destiny

Chapter 132 The Identity of Professor Lu Ping

In the next few days, the conversation among all the students in the school revolved around one theme, that is, how did Sirius sneak into the school. Hermione told people around her more than once that the school castle was not only protected by walls, but also protected by city walls. Containing a lot of magic, Apparition has no effect.

"Please Nidia, please tell me, have you read a history of Hogwarts, right? Don't make me feel that I am the only one who has read this book." Hermione expected to be here with Nidia. Finding resonance, this may be because Nidia often spent time in the library reading books during this time.

"I have indeed read it, but Hermione, I just flipped through it casually. It is different from you who can almost recite the entire text." Nidia was a little embarrassed. She felt that in front of Hermione, she was not considered a person at all. Read the book.

Perhaps the only one who didn't pay attention to how Sirius entered the school was Nydia, because she was the only one who knew clearly how Sirius entered the school. After learning that Ron's rat Scabbers was actually Peter Pettigrew, Nydia couldn't help but observe him carefully. It has to be said that he disguised himself very well. Without knowing the truth, anyone could be fooled. You won’t feel that this is not a mouse but an Animagus.

"Why do you keep staring at Bansara? You will make him feel nervous." Ron noticed Nidia's eyes staring closely at Bansara. In the past, she had no interest in Bansara at all. "You look so similar to me." Crookshanks.”

"Sorry, I'm just curious about how mice live for more than ten years. You must know that the lifespan of mice is usually only two to three years." Nidia wanted to remind Ron to notice Scabbers' weirdness. Think about how you think about it every day. What's walking on you is actually not a mouse, but a person. It feels so strange, and he even sleeps next to you at night.

"What's so strange about this? Our family has taken good enough care of him, and who knows if Banban has the blood of other magical creatures? To say that Banban is strange, your Yiwan and Hermione's Kru Isn't Crookshanks also weird? Even Harry's Hedwig is a little too smart." Ron said a little unhappy, and then put Scabbers back in his pocket. Because of Crookshanks, He is very protective of Banban now.

Indeed, as Ron said, both Iwan and Crookshanks are somewhat unusual pets. After knowing Banban's true identity, Yiwan did not pursue Banban like Crookshanks. Most of the time, Yiwan behaved very indifferently to everything. Most of the time, it was still sleeping as before.

Harry, who had just finished Quidditch training, returned to the lounge with a heavy face. They were going to have their first Quidditch match this Saturday, but the recent weather conditions were getting worse and worse.

"What happened?" Ron asked Harry about the situation. Fred and George, who followed Harry in, didn't look too happy either.

"The team we compete with has changed. We no longer compete with Slytherin. Our opponent is changed to Hufflepuff. Because Slytherin said that Malfoy's arm has not fully recovered and it will affect the game." Harry complained, "All our training tactics were developed for Slytherin, and now they all have to be changed."

"He's pretending, right? It's been so long, and his arm is still bandaged." Ron looked at Nidia unhappily. "They just don't want to play in this weather."

"Not removing the bandage was Madam Pomfrey's suggestion. If you don't believe it, you can go and ask her yourself." In fact, according to normal recovery, Draco's bandage can be removed, but because he did not listen to Madam Pomfrey, He had been practicing Quidditch with the injury, which was why the injury never fully recovered.

"Wood said Digory has formed a very good team this year, and the style is completely different from before." Harry said worriedly.

"Whether they have become stronger or not, you will have to face Hufflepuff sooner or later, right? Besides, you were notified of changing teams at short notice. Aren't they the same as you? Maybe they are not even as good as you. At least they are not They didn't expect you to start training early when you expected to play in the first game." Nydia tried to tell Harry that the situation of changing teams was not that bad.

"Yes, both Gryffindor and Hufflepuff performed poorly. It's not the Slytherin team that benefits from this," Ron muttered unhappily.

Nitya didn't want to say any more. In fact, Harry was only nervous about the game itself, and it had nothing to do with who his opponent was. She continued to look through a book about potions newly developed in recent years that she had just borrowed from the library. This book was borrowed to investigate what the potion that Snape brewed was. She had already put this book The ingredients of the potion and the method of brewing it were completely memorized. The process was very complicated, and the measurement was very precise. No wonder Snape didn't let her cook it this time. It was really difficult for her to brew such a potion at her current level. Disaster.

Initially, Nidia spent a lot of time searching for some types of potions that were of a certain age. However, she searched all the potion formulas in the library and could not find the exact same ones, so now she turned her focus to recent years. Among the newly developed potions, she quickly compared the ingredients one after another. Suddenly she was excited to find that the formula of a potion exactly matched the ingredients of the potion brewed by Snape. But when she saw the name of the potion, At this time, the expression on his face solidified.

Wolfsbane Potion What Snape was brewing was actually Wolfsbane Potion. It was a potion that allowed a werewolf to remain rational when he transformed into a wolf. Snape said that he was brewing this potion for Lupine. Yes, could it be said that Lupine is the silver-white sphere that Nydia recalled when Lupine dealt with the Boggart last time? It was a full moon, a full moon that would make him lose his mind and transform into a wolf. This way That makes sense.

Dumbledore must have known Lupin's identity as a werewolf, so he asked Snape to brew Wolfsbane potion for him. Nydia couldn't help but admire Dumbledore's boldness. He really dared to let anyone get close to him. Whether it's hiring Lupine as a teacher or keeping himself at the school as Field, it's certainly a risk.

"What's wrong with you?" Michelle noticed the seriousness of Nitya's expression.

"It's okay, I'm just a little tired from reading." Nidia quickly closed the book to prevent others from seeing it.

Sure enough, Snape deliberately let himself know that he was preparing the Wolfsbane potion. He wanted to reveal the identity of Lupin the Werewolf. But Nitya felt that judging from Lupine's several courses, he was indeed a very good teacher. His teaching methods and interesting methods allowed students to fully practice, and he was also very good at motivating students to Be brave enough to try and challenge boldly. Students can learn truly useful skills from Lupine, and for this reason, Nydia is willing to keep his identity secret.

Nydia thought that as long as she didn't tell anyone, Lupine's identity would not be discovered, but she still underestimated Snape's strong desire to reveal Lupine's identity.

In the Defense Against the Dark Arts class the next day, Snape taught for Lupine. He did not follow the original teaching schedule at all, but skipped directly to the last chapter, The Werewolf. And at the end of the course, everyone was asked to write an essay on how to identify and kill a werewolf, filling two volumes of parchment. In Nidia's view, his intention couldn't be more obvious. He wanted everyone to be aware of Lupine's abnormality. Nydia didn't know whether others could discover something through this paper, but she knew that with Hermione's intelligence, even if she was not 100% sure, she would definitely be able to find some clues.

After class, when others were not paying attention, Nydia entered the Shrieking Shack through the secret passage at the bottom of the Whomping Willow under the guidance of Crookshanks, and brought some food to Sirius.

"You mean Harry is going to participate in the Quidditch match tomorrow?" Sirius was very excited after learning from Nydia that Harry was going to participate in the game tomorrow, "Haha, he must have inherited it from James, James Mu is also a very good seeker."

"Don't tell me you're going to the game," Nydia said worriedly, seeing Sirius looking eager to try.

"Of course, of course I'm going to see it. You may not know that when Harry was a baby, I gave him a broomstick toy." Sirius looked proud.

"Do you know how many dementors are out there waiting for you to show up?"

"Don't worry, as long as I transform into a dog, the dementors can't find me. That's how I escaped from Azkaban, and I know all the secret passages in the school. It's not that easy to catch me. "

"I know I can't convince you, but I still have to say that you made an ignorant choice. Dumbledore will be there tomorrow. I think he can see your identity." Nydia has always felt that Dumbledore will be there tomorrow. Bullido's eyes seemed to be able to see through the truth of everything.

"I'll be very careful. Just take one look and I'll leave."

"I've said everything I need to say, it's up to you to make your own choice, but as long as you don't give me away if you're caught." Nitya shrugged helplessly, "I can't stay long, I have to rush Snape went over to help him brew a potion for Lupine."

"Snape Lupin" Sirius looked at Nydia in surprise.

"What's wrong? Do you know them? Are you friends?" Nydia suddenly remembered what Snape said about his suspicion that someone was picking up Sirius.

"Snape and I can't be called friends, but Lupine and we used to be very good friends, but now maybe he, like everyone else, thinks that I betrayed James and Lily." Sirius looked a little disappointed. . "Are they all in school?"

"Yes, Snape is our Potions teacher, and Lupine is the new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher this year."

"Ah, he came to school to teach Defense Against the Dark Arts. I dare say he must be a good teacher. I really want to thank Dumbledore for giving him this opportunity. His life is not easy."

"He is indeed a very good teacher, but it's a pity." Unfortunately, if his identity as a werewolf was known to everyone, he would definitely no longer be able to serve as this teacher.

"You said Snape was brewing a potion for him. Is he sick?"

"If you are really his good friend, then you must also know his true identity, right?"

Sirius first looked at Nydia in surprise, and then asked, "How do you know that everyone knows?"

"No, I am the only one who knows about it at the moment, because I have to help make the medicine. I found it out through the formula myself." Nydia briefly told Sirius what happened.

"Oh, this snot-nosed man, he definitely did this on purpose. He wants everyone to know Lupine's identity." Sirius said angrily, "He is still holding a grudge for what happened when he was a student."
