I wield a sword at Hogwarts

Chapter 456 Advice to Lu Ping

Jack Sr. was hospitalized at Silver Cross Hospital.

His children came to visit.

Old Jack stroked Tyro's head, and Ais brought him a lot of candies.

Zuo Fei and Chu Dai also came.

"The reporters outside were driven away." Zuo Fei came in with an unhappy expression.

“Those guys were like sharks smelling something fishy and wanted to report on the latest news about the congressman.”

Chu Dai came over, and Tai Luo ran over and timidly called her brother.

"Lord Johnny Silverhand got justice for us," Old Jack said after being traumatized by the Cruciatus Curse. "I hope you remember, no matter what, you will always stand by Lord Silverhand."

He thought of Karl's plan, which made him feel frightened.

He can die, but the werewolf cannot be destroyed.

He took his children by the hands and made them make a vow.

"Promise me no matter when." Old Jack's eyes were cloudy and his voice was sincere.

Chudai and Zuo Fei looked at each other and nodded.

"Don't worry, grandpa, we will definitely not betray Lord Silverhand." Zuo Fei said solemnly, "It was Lord Silverhand who gave us everything."

Chu Dai also said: "Even if I betray the Ministry of Magic, I will not stand against Lord Silverhand."

"Okay, that's good." Old Jack lay down, the pain in his heart making him breathe hard.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door of the ward.

Tyro ran over and opened the door.

After opening the door, a familiar person appeared here.

"What are you doing here?" Zoffie stared at the visitor with an unkind look, "Remus Lupin."

They all knew that this man had lobbied Old Jack.

Lupine held flowers in his hand and was not angry in the face of Sophie's aggressive attitude.

"I came to see old Jack."

"You are not needed here." Zuo Fei issued the eviction order, "I have law enforcement rights over you."

Lu Ping smiled bitterly and turned to leave.

"Zophie," Old Jack's weak voice sounded, "let him come over."

Lupine's footsteps stopped, and even if Zoffie didn't want to see him, he could only obey.

He came to old Jack's bedside and put the flowers into the vase.

"Are you okay, old Jack?" Lupine asked with concern.

He has respect and care for this elder who once took care of him.

Old Jack smiled weakly, "You can't die yet, but the Cruciatus Curse is unpleasant."

Looking up at his children, Old Jack said, "Go out, I want to stay with him for a while."

Chudai held down Sophie who wanted to speak, and Ais took Tyro's hand.

Old Jack's children walked out of the ward and closed the door.

There were only two people left in the ward. Old Jack pushed his body to sit up, and Lupine hurriedly helped him adjust the pillow to make him sit comfortably.

"What do you want to know, Remus." Old Jack coughed twice and said, "Or is it what the person behind you wants to know?"

Old Jack was getting older and his body began to decline during the year.

His temples were gray, and the wrinkles on old Jack's face had become kind.

Lupine looked at old Jack like this and sighed: "You must despise me, right?"

"Remus, you have to choose how you live your life." Old Jack coughed again, this time so serious that the children outside were worried.

"Yes, I do have some questions," Lupine chose to be honest, "about that day, after you were kidnapped, and what happened to the five families."

"These things are very important, because Fu Di..."

"It's not him you want to know, right?" Old Jack's cloudy eyes suddenly seemed to have the power to see through people's hearts. He looked at Lupine steadily, "You want to know, is this matter related to Johnny Silver?" Is it about the hand?"

"Remus," Old Jack sighed, "Why do you always hold on to Mr. Silverhand?"

Why?

Lupine couldn't explain clearly. Maybe John's was so different that they couldn't do otherwise.

"I can tell you what happened, and I can also tell you about the five families."

Old Jack's eyes suddenly became sharp, "But before I tell you all this, you need to make a choice."

"Remus, do you want to live as a werewolf or a wizard?"

Hearing this question, Lupine's heart beat a beat slower for some reason.

Old Jack's eyes were aggressive, and his voice was even more majestic as an elder.

"As a werewolf, live for werewolves, or become a wizard and give up your identity?"

"I know that we are werewolves, existences that were once expelled and hated by all."

"But none of this is what we want. None of us wants to become a werewolf."

"Werewolves are monsters and have no place for us." Old Jack coughed again, and Lupine hurriedly poured water for him.

After taking a sip of water, Old Jack felt better.

"If you want to live as a werewolf, you need to lead your werewolf brothers and sisters, resist when wizards kill werewolves, and fight for equality for werewolves."

Lupine's eyes were a little confused.

He never thought about it, as old Jack said.

There is a conflict between werewolves and wizards, and discrimination cannot be eliminated in a short time.

As a werewolf, he wants to protect the oppressed werewolves.

But as a wizard, he seems to need to contribute to the magical world.

Old Jack was not in a hurry, he was waiting for Lupine to make his choice.

"I think... I can't get rid of the identity of a werewolf," Lupine said with a bitter smile. "Although there are cruel and bloodthirsty werewolves, they are all victims."

"Yes, victim." Old Jack looked at Lupine and said, "Then you shouldn't treat Lord Silverhand like this."

"Don't mention those potential harms or conspiracy theories to me." Old Jack interrupted Lupine's words domineeringly and said without any doubt, "I can tell you what happened, but at the same time I need to give you some advice."

"Dumbledore cannot bring peace to werewolves. Between wizards and werewolves, he will choose wizards without hesitation."

Old Jack said in a deep voice: "Just like this time, if it were him, I believe he would not choose a werewolf."

Later, Jack Sr. talks about what happened when he was kidnapped.

The coughing sound during this period made the children outside open the door several times to check if anything was okay.

Lu Ping listened quietly, his expression changing from curious at the beginning to confused at the end.

Werewolf status.

The kidnapping of a pureblood family.

No matter which one, it is impossible to ignore.

"I don't know the details of those five families, but..." A look of respect appeared on Old Jack's face, "Your Excellency Silverhand never abandoned us."

Lupine took a deep breath. He felt that the air had become thinner and he needed to get out to restore his brain function.

He left Silver Cross Hospital and went to Johnny Silverhand's store in a daze.

He once worked in this place and watched the people coming in and out.

He walked in subconsciously.

The plank that Johnny Silverhand had cut open was gone, and it was unbelievably spacious.

"One of our own?" Lupine looked at the novelty items on the counter.

His best memories in the first half of his life were at Hogwarts. Only after he came out into society did he realize how kind Dumbledore was back then.

Werewolves enroll in school without wolfsbane potion.

There he met James, met Sirius, and that damn traitor Peter Pettigrew.

He had been a prefect, and once had a spell with Snape.

It can be said that he relied on that memory to get through the gloomy time in the later period.

James is dead and Sirius is in jail.

That four-man team collapsed overnight.

He is like a lone wolf who has lost his tribe, wandering around in the magical society.

Werewolves are at the bottom of society and are sometimes not considered human beings at all.

In Defense Against the Dark Arts, learn how to resist this evil existence.

From the perspective of Order of the Phoenix Remus, the social harm that the Society of Stars may bring, and Johnny Silverhand's unscrupulous behavior, are even suspected of erasing five families.

But from the perspective of the werewolf Lupine, he was a being who openly fought against the big family for the werewolves. The power he fought for for the werewolves may have been to increase his own power, but all the favors were real.

What would happen if the werewolf was suppressed again?

Fight for the werewolves, or hide away and become a wizard?

Dumbledore is a god, but the god of Remus Lupin.

His tenderness was felt only by Lupine.

Johnny Silverhand is a god, and he is the god of werewolves. The entanglement of interests gave rise to the werewolf community.

"Remus?"

A confused voice came, and Lu Ping looked back.

Tonks' hair turned black, she looked around and said in a low voice, "What are you doing here?"

"I'm just taking a walk," Lupine said, and asked confused, "Tonks, why are you here?"

"I thought you came to see me," Tonks complained a little, "I'm here to investigate the affairs of five families."

"I already have a guess about this matter." Lupine looked at Tonks's complaining expression and couldn't help but smile, "Now we can go back and celebrate Christmas."

"God, I don't want to see Mrs. Weasley continue to create 'accidental encounters' for me and Bill." Tonks continued to complain.

But he still followed Lupine out of Johnny Silverhand's store honestly.
