Chapter 210 The Sober Werewolf (2 in 1 Chapter)
·
Liu Yue Zhi Yuan Fei
The time is fast, the night of the full moon.
Lupine has been feeling fine since taking Douglas' medicine.
Especially after drinking the bitter-tasting chamaejasma potion, and then cooperating with the meditation given to him by Professor Douglas.
Lupine obviously felt that he didn't have the particularly obvious mania before he turned into a werewolf.
This greatly increased the confidence of the three.
It was just dark, and with Dobby's assistance, several people came to the Shrieking Shack.
Lupine looked at the furnishings in the Screaming Shack. If it wasn't for the sight of Hogsmeade village not far away that had just entered the night through the gap in the wall, Lupine and Sirius would have thought they had come to the wrong place.
This place is no longer what they used to stay here. Although the room is still covered with dust and the walls are mottled, the furniture that was once smashed here has been cleaned up.
Now there is a huge, hollowed-out table in the middle of the house, which seems to be the place to put the pot, and there are three intact chairs around the table...
Lupine looked at the hole in the wall, frowned slightly and said:
"It seems that someone once came here through the hole in the wall, and even lives and eats here. I don't know if he has sneaked into Hogwarts from here..."
Sirius walked to the cave leading to Hogwarts, looked carefully and said:
"This passage seems to have collapsed. It seems that someone has blown up this place before. Should we change the place?"
Seeing the two people commenting, Douglas cleared his throat in embarrassment, and then used a magic spell to cleanse the room, and at the same time blocked the hole he and Bill made.
"I think it's pretty good here. Ordinary apparitions can't get in. Now all the exits are blocked, and there's no time. I guess the time for Remus' transformation is coming soon."
As he spoke, he took out a special crucible and a small box from his pocket.
Under the astonished gazes of Lupine and Sirius, the cauldron in Douglas's hand sat perfectly in the round hole on the table.
Then various dishes flew out from the small box and neatly placed on the round table.
Then, after adding something to the crucible, Douglas pointed at the crucible with his wand and said, "Clear water is like a spring!"
At last a fire was lit under the cauldron.
It wasn't until Douglas told them to sit down that Lupine and Sirius came back to their senses.
Lupine said in surprise:
"Douglas, it turns out that you made this place, hehe..."
Sirius watched as Douglas took out the unicorn chopsticks, ready to put the ingredients in the cauldron.
"I've been hearing students say that slugs are talking about a person who cooks soup in a cauldron. I didn't know who it was, but now it seems to be you... Hehe, I just want to say that you did a great job. …”
Douglas shrugged and said:
"Hurry up and eat these materials. I intercepted these materials from Principal Dumbledore, and I usually can't eat them."
After Sirius sat down, Lupine stood aside and smiled, but didn't sit down. He was worried that after sitting down and transforming, the table would be ruined.
Douglas looked at Lupine and said:
"What's the matter, do you feel it coming?"
Lupine shook his head and said in surprise:
"It seems that your medicine is really effective. At this moment, I have already felt an unbearable anger, and it was already the next day when I woke up again.
But since I drank your medicine, my emotions are still under control until now. "
Douglas looked at Lupine who was trying to control his emotions while talking, and nodded:
"Then sit down and eat together, this fire dragon meat is a great tonic, it can offset part of the energy you need to transform.
After a while you feel it, and then just wait for the transformation..."
After Sirius sat down, he suddenly became silent.
Currently, Douglas has no interest in comforting a hypocritical wolf or a sad dog.
The whole process is rather dull.
After nine o'clock in the evening, suddenly Lupine put down his chopsticks and ran aside quickly.
He clenched his fists hard, and then trembled all over. Amidst a terrifying roar, Lupine's head was lengthening, and his body was also lengthening.
His shoulders were arched, his face and hands were covered with hair, his fingers curled into claws, his hind legs stood up, and his long mouth opened and closed.
Sirius stood in front of Douglas, ready to transform into a big black dog at any time.
Since werewolves only pose a threat to humans, when Lupine transforms, a few of them will transform into animals to accompany him, which can make the whole process more bearable, and at the same time prevent them from being infected with the werewolf virus.
At the moment when Lupine transformed into a werewolf, Sirius also completed the transformation of Animagus in an instant. Once Lupine attacked Douglas, he needed to stop it immediately.
After Lupine turned into a werewolf, his first reaction was to look at himself, and there were claws.
This was the first time he saw himself transformed into a werewolf in a waking state, and he suddenly felt disgusted.
He covered his face and hid in the corner, sobbing vaguely and saying:
"Go away, don't look at me..."
When Sirius saw Lupin's reaction and heard him speak, he was stunned. He didn't care about turning into a human, and directly used the state of a big black dog to speak in human language:
"Succeeded, Douglas, did you succeed? Remus, Remus, succeeded! Haha!"
Douglas did not know when he took out a notebook and wrote something on it. After hearing what Sirius said, he reminded:
"You'd better turn back into a human body and speak human language, you look so strange.
Remus, don't be too nervous. I know you hate your werewolf form, but you won't shy away from medical treatment. I need to observe your state carefully before I can determine how to use the medicine next. "
Sirius also changed back into a human form, stepped forward and hugged Lupine who was covering his face, and said in a choked tone
"Moonface (Lupin's nickname), I'm still... I'm still... Prongs will be so happy to see you like this... "
Slowly Lupine took away his wolf paws, revealing a wolf face that was already full of tears, but he had carefully hidden his paws behind him, for fear of accidentally injuring Sirius and Douglas.
Douglas yanked Sirius away, and then carefully observed Lupine's state.
He hadn't seen any other werewolf drinking Wolf's Poison before, so there was really no way to compare.
However, he still carefully asked about Lupine's current feelings and status.
After learning that the other party was fine, Douglas took out a prepared sheet and asked Lupine to wrap it around himself.
Only then did Lupine remember that he was still naked. Although it was difficult to see the blushing on his werewolf face, Sirius and Douglas could still feel it from his eyes.
In order to take care of Lu Ping's emotions, the two turned their backs one after another and handed over their backs to Lu Ping.
Lupine was very moved when he saw the actions of the two. It took a lot of trust to hand over his back to a werewolf.
After Lupine tied the sheet around his waist, Douglas asked Lupine to get up and take two steps.
Lupine nodded. It was also a novelty for him to control the werewolf body for the first time in a waking state...
Douglas looked around Lupine, and then asked:
"How do you feel different now than when you were a werewolf?"
Lupine thought for a while and said:
"The mania has weakened. I clearly remember the behavior after turning into a werewolf every time. It was a kind of primitive mania, but now I don't feel that mania. Even my brain is extremely clear and my body is full of strength. , is a force that can be controlled..."
Douglas nodded, then drew his wand and said:
"Next, you may need to cooperate with me to do some small tests..."
Sirius immediately stepped forward and asked:
"Douglas, what are you going to do? We didn't discuss this before..."
Douglas explained:
"It's just some ordinary magic tests, I need to make a real wolf's poison for research.
Of course, I heard that the Restoration Charm can force a werewolf to return to its human form, so I want to try it, if it works, every time someone interferes, then I don’t have to stay in the werewolf form all night..."
Lupine in the werewolf state lowered his head and said doubtfully:
"Isn't the restoration curse an Animagus counter-curse? Why haven't I heard that it can also be used on werewolves?"
Douglas said lightly:
"Oh, it's mentioned in a book "Wandering with Werewolves" that a wizard once subdued a werewolf in Wagga Wagga, and used the restoration spell to turn him back into an ordinary person."
Lupine had never read Gilderoy Lockhart's books because he had been living very poorly.
But Sirius, who has been supplementing the knowledge of the magic world for more than ten years, reacted instantly.
"Isn't that book written by a liar who was caught last year... Douglas, you actually used a liar's method to experiment on Lupine?"
Douglas shook his head and said:
"It's true that Gilderoy Lockhart is a liar, but the contents of his book are not necessarily deceitful, because those are the experiences of others and were deceived by him, so there is still a certain degree of truth... "
Lupine in the werewolf state went straight to the ground, looked at Douglas and said:
"Come on, I'm willing to try... Padfoot..."
Sirius nodded and stood aside.
Douglas pointed his wand at Lupine and said a spell.
A white light flashed, and Lupine's body gradually changed. The wolf fur on his body disappeared, the sharp claws and big fangs also retracted, and the wolf's mouth became slightly more convex than normal.
Lupine tightened the sheets again, then stood up from the ground, carefully looked at his hands and feet, although he hadn't completely returned to the form of an ordinary person, but the state was already very good.
Even if someone saw him at this time, it would be difficult to guess what relationship he had with the werewolf.
But Douglas didn't seem very satisfied yet. His original magic shouldn't just have this kind of effect. It might be that the werewolf's magic resistance is much higher than that of ordinary wizards.
After observing, he asked:
"How do you feel now!"
Lupine smiled and said, through tears:
"Wonderful, simply fantastic..."
After the mouth became a human mouth, Lupine spoke much more clearly than before.
Douglas recorded all this in his notes, planning to go back and find the corresponding information from the system.
Morning run the next morning.
The students were surprised to find that Professor Lupine had returned.
And it looks very good, very energetic.
The students greeted Lupine happily, and Hermione in the crowd frowned at Lupine.
No, very wrong, this is different from what is written in the book.
It was a full moon last night. If Professor Lupine was a werewolf, he would be weak and pale today, but he looks much better than before.
As for whether it was some kind of potion, Hermione shook her head decisively, looking at the old robe that Professor Lupine was wearing, she didn't look like someone who could afford that kind of potion.
She looked around, but she didn't find Douglas exercising on the lawn where he was.
I didn't have time to talk to Douglas about Professor Lupine alone before. Judging from the current situation, I probably guessed wrong...
She wasn't the only one in the crowd who had this idea.
In the past few days when Snape was acting as a substitute, he intentionally or unintentionally deducted the marks of a group of students, and then asked them to copy the book during the confinement class.
Many of the students began to doubt whether Lupine was a werewolf because of some characteristics and circumstances.
On the first day after the full moon night, Professor Lupine not only appeared, but he was not in the weak state described in the book.
This situation dispels the doubts of many people...
Seeing Lupine come back, Harry finally breathed a sigh of relief, not because he doubted whether Lupine was a werewolf, but because he finally didn't have to see Snape outside of Potions class.
The confinement class during the recent period was simply his nightmare, five points were deducted for not turning the page for the students; five points were deducted for untidy handwriting; five points were deducted for not asking Professor Snape when he walked into the classroom... ....
If Professor Lupine doesn't come back, he feels like he's going to be handed over to confinement this semester.
At the same time, the investigation of the Charon Detective Agency, which has stalled, can continue.
Because Douglas told him before, if you want to open a breakthrough, you have to start with Lupine...
Lupine has been feeling fine since taking Douglas' medicine.
Especially after drinking the bitter-tasting chamaejasma potion, and then cooperating with the meditation given to him by Professor Douglas.
