The Alchemist of Harry Potter

"When will the party start?"

"What party?" Albert asked suspiciously.

"Of course it's a meeting of the Defense Association. You shouldn't have forgotten about this on purpose, right?" Shanna stopped, turned her head to stare at Albert, and almost put her head in front of him and asked if Albert was I didn't mean to forget about it.

"Other people are going to the party when they hear about it," Shanna said as she walked. "They're all asking you when to start?"

"Don't tell me, you mean a bunch of girls by other people!" Albert asked tentatively.

Shanna pouted and couldn't help laughing, "Isn't it popular with the girls?"

"They are troublesome sometimes."

"If the girls hear it, I don't know how sad it will be." Shanna gave an expression that you really don't know what to do.

"You sure don't go around talking nonsense."

"Well, of course there are some girls." Shanna stepped up to follow Albert, and said to herself, "Most are fifth graders, and the Defense Association is mainly to help everyone get the Defence Against the Dark Arts exam. Excellent results.”

"That's good. But...I can't find a suitable meeting place for the time being." Albert said helplessly, "I'm not sure if Professor McGonagall will allow us to use the empty classroom in the castle."

"If it doesn't work, what are you going to do?" Shanna frowned, trying to figure out how to solve the problem.

Before reaching the door of the Defence Against the Dark Arts office, she still hadn't thought of a suitable solution.

"Can you be in the auditorium?"

"Certainly not, we need to have enough space to train magic." Albert shook his head and rejected, "Trust me, if we practice magic in the auditorium, Professor McGonagall will definitely put me in confinement."

"But isn't your wizarding card club in the Great Hall?" Shanna asked in confusion.

"That's different."

"Okay, but we don't have much time. It's already three months, and there are less than three months left." Shanna suddenly understood why Albert was reluctant to become a defense association. It's a difficult problem to solve in itself.

"Okay, don't worry, we can always find a solution to the problem." Albert reassured.

"Well, I'll leave this to you."

After Albert said he would solve it, Shanna guessed that Albert probably already had a plan.

This guy definitely didn't say anything on purpose, it's really annoying.

After taking a few deep breaths and re-adjusting her emotions, Shanna raised her hand and knocked on the door of the Defense Against the Dark Arts office.

"Mr. Anderson, Miss Wilson, is there anything?" Lupin was a little surprised, probably not expecting someone to visit him at this time.

Albert noticed that Lupin was pale, his clothes were loose, and he did look like he had just fallen ill.

"Professor, we heard you're sick." Shanna held up the basket of desserts and flowers.

"Thank you, do you want to come in and sit for a while?"

Professor Lupin smiled kindly, and did not expect any students to visit him.

The three chatted about the Defence Against the Dark Arts class yesterday, and Lupin probably understood the reason why the two came to visit him. They were obviously worried about Ls' Defence Against the Dark Arts exam, or the Gryffindor students were worried about Ls's. Defense Against the Dark Arts exam, so the two of them came to visit themselves.

"Don't worry, in the next few classes, I'll specifically take out the main points of Defense Against the Dark Arts class, so that you can have enough time to review this class at Easter." Lupin comforted him. Not disappointed, but relieved, the Defense Against the Dark Arts class was really messed up.

"Miss Wilson, are there any other questions?" Lupin saw Shanna hesitate.

"Professor Lupin, maybe I'm rude to say this, but have you thought about resigning early or changing positions?" Shanna hesitated for a moment, but asked.

"Resign early, why?" Professor Lupin was very surprised.

"This class is cursed,

I think you should be aware of this as well, that almost no professor can stay in this class for more than a year. "Sannah said seriously. "Resigning early has proven to be the best way out of the curse." "

Professor Lupin was silent, looking at Shanna, who was a little nervous, and Albert, who was very calm, and smiled: "I know there is a curse, but I feel that resigning now is irresponsible to everyone."

"Perhaps, you think this is absurd, but have you learned about your previous Defence Against the Dark Arts professors?"

Albert helps Lupin find out about his ex's condition.

"When we were just entering the school, the one who taught us Defense Against the Dark Arts was Professor Broad. He knew about the Curse of the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor when he first took office, and he mentioned to us in the first class of the school that he planned to resign early. things." Albert recalled: "Professor Broad is currently known to remain unharmed as a professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts."

"Professor Rowena Smith in the second year was a very good wizard. Later, he disappeared without warning. Everyone was looking for him everywhere, and his whereabouts are still unknown. Many people say that he is dead."

"The third year was Professor Quirinus Quirrell. It is said that he was possessed by a mysterious man on the back of his head. At the end of the semester, he died in a dungeon and turned into a pile of ashes. Potter was the last witness."

"Professor Gilderoy Lockhart in the fourth year is a liar, he has become a fool for no reason, and is now receiving treatment at St Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Injury, and it is said that he will spend the rest of his life under the care of others. "

"I think the so-called curse is not a rumor, let alone a coincidence. I never think that the coincidence will last for decades." Albert's meaning is actually obvious.

"Actually, everyone sincerely hopes that you can stay and serve as our Defense Against the Dark Arts professor." Shanna bit her lower lip, and said a little nervously and excitedly: "But everyone doesn't want you to have an accident because of this. Sorry, although it is very difficult. I'm sorry, but there are some things I can't help but..."

"No, please don't say that." Professor Lupin didn't get angry because of it, just smiled and said to the two of them: "I'll think about it carefully, you're right, this curse is indeed a bit... scary."

"Do you think Professor Lupin will resign early?"

After leaving the Defense Against the Dark Arts office, Shanna asked Albert curiously.

"No." Albert shook his head.

"Why, knowing that the curse is so terrible, doesn't he worry at all about stepping into the back path of his predecessors?" Shanna was very puzzled, and she would have resigned long ago.

"Maybe, Professor Lupin has his own reasons for having to stay!"

Albert actually knew that it was useless to say those words just now, but he still said, "What we can do, we have already done it. What Professor Lupin will choose in the end is not something you and I can decide."

"Pity."

Shanna sighed, still a little depressed.

"I've already thought about where to meet." Albert changed the subject.

"Oh, where?"

"It's kept secret for the time being. Help me figure out how many people plan to join our club. I'll notify you when that happens."

"No problem." Shanna thought of one more thing and suggested: "It's best to fix the time, Saturday or Sunday, pick a time when everyone is more free."

"Then let's go from eight to nine o'clock on Saturday night." Albert thought about it and said, "Just in time, the school library will be closed after eight o'clock."
