Chapter 136 The Eagle Who Cherishes His Life

"Were they friends before?" Michael asked.

"Best friends." Theo paused and added: "...I heard."

"Where is that person now?" Ryan asked.

"Azkaban, of course."

Wade looked up at the empty photo spot and said nothing.

After lunch, everyone went to visit Hogsmeade.

Theo had been here with his parents several times before, and it was the first time for Michael and Ryan to visit this famous village. They couldn't wait to run into the store, excitedly wanting to buy everything.

Wade and Lupin fell behind, and the middle-aged wizard looked at the child's happy appearance, with a look of relief and a hint of melancholy.

"Next day on a day off, I will bring Harry with me." Wade said sympathetically.

"That would be great if you can."

Lupin smiled like a silly father: "I didn't feel anything when I was alone before, but now... there's one less person at home, and I feel like the whole house is empty."

"Please keep Harry a secret about what happened today." Wade said: "He is living a carefree life now, and there is no need to get involved with Tom's affairs."

Lupin naturally agreed.

He remembered the doubts in his mind before, and said: "Wade, remember the shadow in the cave?"

"Of course." Wade said.

"If you just inject thoughts, it will not form that kind of real form, as if it has an independent soul."

Lupin said worriedly: "With Voldemort... with Tom's magic level, he must have mastered a lot of dark magic that we can't understand, and the danger of the crown is beyond my expectation."

"Fortunately, you are very cautious and have never come into direct contact with it."

"Of course, it has been destroyed now... but if you encounter similar things in the future, be careful."

He did not doubt that Wade had concealed something from him, but thought that Wade had misjudged the terrible degree of Voldemort's weapon with his current knowledge.

Vader said seriously, "Of course, I will."

"For safety, let me confirm again." Lupin asked, "You didn't encounter other 'Tom's weapons', did you? You didn't, did you?"

Vade looked away and said, "That kind of thing, even Tom wouldn't have many, right?"

Lupin looked at him and sighed, "I'll teach you the Fiery Curse."

"Okay!" Vader smiled and said bluntly, "I've been waiting for it."

"Promise me that you won't use it before you can fully control it!"

"Of course, I promise."

"You must discuss anything with me first, don't do it yourself."

"I know."

Vade agreed, but Lupin still looked a little worried.

When everyone returned to school through the Vanishing Cabinet, Vader was still the last person to enter.

"Thank you, Remus."

Before closing the cabinet door, Vader smiled and said, "But don't treat me as a reckless lion, I am an eagle who cherishes my life."

Lupin was stunned.

The black cabinet door had been closed, and the people inside had already arrived at Hogwarts.

Lupin smiled bitterly and said to himself, "Not all lions are reckless."

He picked up the upside-down photo and stroked it with his fingers, and the paper on it floated down.

The black-haired boy in the photo showed a happy and uninhibited smile, looking very proud and full of energy.

But Lupin felt his heart ache.

"...Isn't there still...a venomous snake that no one can see?"

...

The people who returned to school had a common secret and became closer to each other. They went to the umbrella house and found that only Padma was there, and then they learned that Harry had entered the infirmary.

"What happened?" Ryan asked.

"Did they fight with Malfoy again?" Theo made a reasonable guess.

"No. Harry fell off his broom during Quidditch training." Padma said.

Wade frowned slightly: "Did his broom lose control? Or was he hit by a bludger?"

-Did Dobby run to the school so early to cause trouble?

"No," Padma said, "He didn't fall, he just fainted."

...

In the school infirmary, Harry was lying on the bed, just waking up. Surrounded by several Gryffindor students and team members.

There was also a little boy (Colin Creevey) holding a camera to take pictures of the moment Harry woke up.

"I'm fine." Harry pushed the camera in front of his eyes away and said helplessly, "Thank you, Colin. But I don't want to take pictures now."

"Was it scary when you fell?" Colin asked loudly, and he didn't know why he looked quite excited.

"It's scary to fall suddenly." Team captain Wood patted Harry on the shoulder and said, "Rest well today, and we will continue training tomorrow morning."

"Are you a devil?" Ron was shocked and asked subconsciously.

Fred held his shoulder and said sadly: "What do you think? Ronnie... the team is very cruel."

George said seriously: "Wood is certainly not a devil... he is much scarier than the devil."

Wood knocked each of the twins on the head, and then began to explain how important their new tactics are. The players' cooperation is terrible, but the game is imminent (actually there are still two months).

The Weasley twins both put on masks of pain.

Angelina (another team member) looked at the two with gloating eyes and laughed silently.

Taking advantage of Wood's inattention, Fred made a face at her.

Harry tried to explain: "I was not scared by the fall from the height, but I suddenly had a headache at that time..."

Wood's voice echoed throughout the ward, and no one paid attention to what he said.

But Ryan, who had just entered the room, heard it.

"Headache?" He walked over and asked in confusion: "About when?"

Finally someone listened to his explanation, Harry breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly said: "About half past ten... or close to eleven o'clock."

"Ten forty-five." Wood somehow shifted his attention here again. He said regretfully: "We just practiced for an hour and twenty-five minutes."

Ryan exchanged glances with Theo.

Ten forty-five...

If I remember correctly, the black shadow in the crown was burning at that time.

Can Harry Potter feel something from such a distance?

Michael felt something was wrong. He looked at the person next to him, but saw that Wade didn't seem to notice the subtle time, but was looking at Ron Weasley next to him.

"That's because you spent an hour talking about tactics..." Fred said to Wood.

Wood frowned and was about to speak.

George suddenly covered Fred's mouth and said with a chuckle: "I suddenly remembered that we still have detention today. If we don't go, Hagrid will definitely be angry..."

"You are in detention again?" Wood asked.

"Yeah, we just went to the Forbidden Forest for a walk, and our gamekeeper caught us..."

Fred pulled George's hand away and shrugged.

"He thought he should teach us a lesson..."

"Cleaning the pigsty, you can't use magic..."

"Since Harry is awake, we'll say goodbye..."

The twins said as they retreated, and disappeared from Wood's sight in a blink of an eye.

Obviously, in their opinion, Wood's nagging is more terrible than cleaning the pigsty.

Angelina laughed out loud.
