Chapter 134 Before and After the Dinner Party

Recently, frequent emergencies have made Maca's sense of crisis worse than before. Even though his strength has exceeded everyone's expectations, he himself does not have any sense of security.

Just the inexplicable return of Peter Pettigrew made him go to great lengths, not to mention, the person who made Peter look like that was most likely Voldemort.

As for how Voldemort will appear on the stage, and what kind of strange power he has acquired, Maca is even more confused.

All he knew was that Voldemort's strength had definitely exceeded his greatest expectations.

The situation is constantly developing in an unknown direction, and the unknown is always disturbing.

For this reason, Maca gave up many uncritical research projects, and devoted all his energy to those goals that can make him grow up as soon as possible.

However, is magic something that can be done quickly?

The holiday is approaching again, but this time, Maca only intends to stay at Hogwarts and devote all his time to the progress of research.

However, this holiday, which was already doomed to be boring, became... er...at least not so boring because of some surprises for Maca.

On the last day of the term, exam results are released.

Harry, Ron and Hermione passed every class - Harry had no idea that he had passed his Potions exam.

He doubted very much that Dumbledore had intervened to keep Snape from getting in his way. Because in the last week, Snape's attitude towards Harry was quite scary.

Harry couldn't have imagined that Snape's annoyance with him would go unabated, but that was the way it was. Every time Snape saw Harry, a muscle around his thin lips twitched uncomfortably, and he kept snapping his knuckles as if he wanted to strangle Harry. like a throat.

Percy passed the N.E.W.T.; Fred and George scraped together a handful of O.W.L. certificates.

Meanwhile, Gryffindor House's end-of-term banquet was decked out in scarlet and gold, largely due to its Quidditch prowess.

It also meant that the tables in Gryffindor House were busier, and almost everyone was celebrating. Even Harry was eating, drinking, talking, and laughing with everyone, forgetting that he was going back to the Dursleys the next day.

And when it comes to the Dursleys, it is inevitable to mention Sirius Black.

After Maca sent Harry and the others to Lupine's office, Harry finally met Black, who was lying on the bed.

Under the narration of Lupine and Black, Harry and the others were surprised to learn some truths about the death of their parents that year.

And when Harry realized that the person who betrayed his parents was actually Peter Pettigrew, he was furious—just ask, who can endure that the hero he has always admired is actually the real culprit who caused the death of his parents? Woolen cloth?

However, this matter is really not very easy to digest.

What's more, no matter why Pettigrew Peter has been hiding for so many years, he is really dead now. The so-called death without proof refers to the current situation.

To the surprise of everyone present, Harry chose to believe in Maca in the end!

Harry believes that: with Maca's wisdom and strength, as the party involved in this incident, his views and decisions are worthy of being used as a powerful judgment standard.

But no matter what, Harry accepted Black as godfather after all, and the result has not changed.

By the way, when Black and Lupine confessed the truth, it was Ron who was more difficult to accept than Harry.

What did you say? Scabbers is Peter Pettigrew? Ron yelled. No, that's not possible!

Even though Black promised to give him a new pet to compensate him,

But he still seemed a little reluctant—it could be seen that his affection for Banban was still very deep.

Of course, Harry, who had accepted all this, still had some resentment—he still had to live at the Dursleys' house for the next vacation. And the reason he got was that his godfather, Mr. Black, had to stay at Hogwarts to recover from his injuries.

Even though it might just be an excuse, Harry had to accept the reality.

At the dinner party, when everyone was eagerly discussing the topic of the holiday, the door of the auditorium was slowly pushed open.

Who is here? Is anyone late?

In fact, the same can be said, because there is a person who has been late for a whole semester...

Willy? Maca swallowed the chicken leg meat in his mouth with a gurgling sound, and a surprised expression appeared on his face.

The person who came was Willy Blois. After a semester, she didn't seem to have changed in any way.

Her figure is still so petite, which makes the wizard robe on her look so baggy; the wide peaked hat covers her hair and even half of her face, making it hard to see what she looks like ; and she was dragging a big suitcase in her hand, and cast her eyes on Hufflepuff's long table, as if searching for someone.

Maca knew that this was definitely looking for him.

After Maca raised her hand and waved it a few times, Willy ignored everyone's gaze, and walked straight towards Maca with her suitcase.

Flowers, are they blooming?

It's been a long time since I've heard such a tone without ups and downs - Maca couldn't help thinking so.

The dining chair is flying in. Maca took out his wand and waved it casually, and a chair in the corner flew across the air and landed firmly beside him, I'll talk about the flower thing later...why are you doing it right now? coming?

Wei Li sat down quietly, and replied: It's a holiday, next semester, or a break from school. She seemed to be used to the way of talking to Maca, after thinking about it, she added, ...probably.

Then you just came to see if the flowers bloomed this holiday? Maca thought for a while.

Willie nodded naturally.

right.

... Maca looked at her several times, then suddenly grabbed a chicken leg and handed it to her, Come, eat the chicken.

Compared with the many messes left by this semester, the routine dinner party was still very successful. At least, many things have nothing to do with the students, and everyone is ready to enjoy their vacation time.

But when Maca and Willie left the auditorium together and were going to find a place to have a good chat about the buds in the greenhouse, they met Lupine who was carrying a suitcase and an empty water tank.

Where are you going, Professor Lupine? Maca greeted casually.

Oh, you don't know yet? I thought Dumbledore must have told you... Lupine smiled wryly.

Huh? Maca looked at him hesitantly, So, you have decided to resign?

I don't think parents would be willing to let a werewolf teach their children, Lupine said sincerely. I saw the scene where Harry and Black recognized each other before, and I think this reason is enough for me to make this decision. — the parents are right, children don't deserve this risk.

And you see, I still treat you...

Maca waved his hand, and suddenly said: Do you need me to find you a suitable job? At least, then you won't have to be as depressed as you are now.

Work? said Lupine in surprise.

Yes, a job away from the crowd— Maca thought for a while, then continued, Maybe it will be boring—because there is really no one there—but at least I won't worry about living, I will pay You paid for it.

Can you tell me more about it? Lupine seemed interested.

There is a small hidden island in the center of the Mediterranean Sea, where there are many magical creatures, and a group of wild elves left over from ancient times...

Maca briefly described the situation there, and specifically explained the work he needed Lupine to do there—breeding all kinds of magical creatures.

In other words, provide him with a large amount of materials needed for magic research continuously.

There is no doubt that it is a very good stronghold, and it must be an unowned island now. Maca decided unceremoniously that the island was his.

If he graduated from Hogwarts in the future, he would have a decent place to stay.

Lupine quickly agreed to think more about it, and Maca could see that this job was indeed a good fit for him. There, even if transformed, there is no danger of harming others.

Don't worry, I don't have time to go there yet... But if you have plans, you can contact me first. Maca said, You can do it anytime.

Just then, Dumbledore also came over.

Your car is at the gate, Lupine, he said.

Thank you, Headmaster.

Lupine, carrying his old suitcase and the empty water tank, gave Dumbledore a polite nod.

Well—goodbye, Mr. McLean, he said, smiling. Actually, it's such an easy job to teach you, but I always feel bad for the heart—whatever the outcome, we can keep in touch. !Principal, there is no need to send me to the gate, I can do it myself...

Lupine seemed eager to get out of school as soon as possible.

Goodbye, then, Lupine. Dumbledore said politely.

Lupine turned the empty tank slightly to shake Dumbledore's hand. Then Lupine gave Maca a final nod, a quick smile, and hurried off.

You made a deep impression on him, Dumbledore teased. Well, that's pretty much every professor's reaction when they talk about you.

Oh—— Maca looked at Willie, who was standing beside him, who had no sense of existence, I think, I have to learn from Miss Blois—I think she is more like a girl than me. Low-key little badger.

Willie just looked at the portraits on the wall calmly, without even looking at him.
