Chapter 145 Acting Professor Lu Ping

Lupine sat in front of the simple fireplace and took out a few bags from the suitcase, which were the food he had collected.

It is common for wizards to live in poverty, but it is rare for wizards to starve to death, because no matter how bad a wizard is, it is still very simple to get some food.

This was the case for Lupine. He received a package of relief food from the Muggle church in the town outside, and then got some last-minute food from the supermarket warehouse. The Muggle tallies would pile them in the shopping mall. Put it in the car and put it in the corner of the warehouse. No one would notice him taking part of it from there.

He first heated a can of pea soup on the lit fire, then heated the bread and ham he received, and wolfed down the pea soup together.

After consuming all the food, he still felt it was not enough, so he used empty cans as containers and boiled a few eggs to eat.

Just as Lupine was blowing hot air on the eggs and carefully peeling off the shells, the sound of a bird's beak tapping on the window lattice came from the window of the wooden house.

Lupine opened the window, and an owl rushed into the cabin with a chill and put a letter into his hands. After completing its mission of delivering the letter, the owl flew out with a flutter. Less than a minute later, it flew back with a big mouse in its mouth, and leaned against the fireplace to enjoy a feast of rat meat.

Looking at the familiar handwriting on the envelope, Lupine sighed, resisted the urge to throw the letter into the fire, opened the envelope and read it.

Looking at the contents of the letter, Lupine couldn't help but raise his eyebrows: That Slytherin who pursues pure-blood supremacy actually kept such a good thing?

He thought that according to Slytherin's character, what he left behind must be the curse of "identifying werewolves from the crowd"!

But with such a spell and potion, Dumbledore's suggestion was worth his consideration.

As the backbone of the Order of the Phoenix, Lupine made great contributions in the Wizarding War. The reason why he has fallen into this situation is not because Dumbledore and his old comrades are ruthless, but because Lupine himself has a heart that cannot be resolved. Knot.

He is not only afraid that he will accidentally infect innocent outsiders after becoming a werewolf, but also unable to face the scenes of the past - as soon as he sees those familiar scenery, every bit of his good friends will come to his mind, making him feel like Knife cut.

Now that he has the humanoid restoration spell, he doesn't have to worry about accidentally hurting innocent students on a full moon night.

Of course, what really touched him was a sentence in the letter: James's child also came to school. He looked exactly like James, but had the same pair of eyes as his mother.

Lupine put out the fire in the fireplace, opened the door and walked into the night.

Early the next morning, before the sun rose, Lupine stood outside the gate of Hogwarts.

During breakfast, the students were surprised to find a shabby man sitting in Professor Lockhart's seat in the faculty chair. Professor Snape, who sat next to the man, had a face as black as a piece of coal.

At this time, the students were not interested in eating. They were all talking about each other and trying to find out the details of this uninvited guest from each other and their friends.

"Classmates." Seeing that the auditorium was almost full, Dumbledore stood up and tapped the wall of the goblet with a spoon.

The whole auditorium suddenly became quiet.

"Due to Professor Lockhart's unwellness, Professor Remus John Lupin will take over the Defense Against the Dark Arts classes for these two weeks!"

As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar in the auditorium, and some Lockhart fans looked at Dumbledore in disbelief, shocked by the decision he made.

What happened to Professor Lockhart? Why have you been absent for so long?

But the waves only stirred up for a moment, and then dissipated on their own, because witnesses in the ward that day told fans that Professor Lockhart himself used magic to disappear the bones in his body...

This left his fans speechless for a moment, not knowing what to say. Compared with this shocking reason, finding a substitute professor for the school does not seem to be something worth discussing.

Due to some strange circumstances, the students didn't pay much attention to Professor Lu Ping's shabby clothes.

After Lockhart, who was lying in the hospital room, was told by his fans that the school had found him a substitute professor, he tried to stand up from the hospital bed and went to the principal's office to explain his rights and interests to Dumbledore, letting him understand that he was just suffering from the disease. For minor ailments, there is no need to find someone to take over.

However, he underestimated the seriousness of his condition - he cast a spell and removed one-third of the bones in his body. How could this be cured in a day or two? What's more, Madam Pomfrey also adopted a more conservative treatment plan based on herbal medicine.

So he fell directly from the hospital bed, smashing all the newly grown bones in his body.

This time, his hospitalization was extended to one month.

When Les heard the news, he was in a happy mood - in his opinion, Lockhart had reached rock bottom. How could there be a worse professor than him? This Lupin can't be worse than Lockhart... right?

Professor Lupine appeared in the auditorium in the morning and began teaching the students the next day.

Miraculously, before class, several female Lockhart fans vowed to give Professor Lupin a blow, but when class was over, they all changed their tune.

"Only such a professor is worthy of being Mr. Lockhart's substitute!"

"I think Professor Lockhart should concentrate on recuperating and leave his classes to Professor Lupin."

Now even Rice was a little curious as to what exactly Professor Lupine taught in class.

When Professor Lupine released a Boggart from the closet and put it away easily, Les smiled with relief: Finally, after two years, the third Defense Against the Dark Arts professor finally became a normal person. !

Unfortunately, this professor can only teach for one month...

Les' eyes became dark and deep.

It only took less than a week for Professor Lupine to change his negative reputation and win the love of the little wizards.

Compared to Professor Quirrell last year, Lupine is much more reliable. Some young wizards who were "lucky" to have taken Lockhart's classes felt that he was much better than Lockhart.

At the same time, the storm is gathering outside.

After Mr. Henry announced the formula for the Restoration Charm and the Wolfsbane Slow-Release Potion, it sparked heated discussions in the wizarding world. Due to the special nature of the Greengrass family, basically everyone believes that the Slytherin manuscripts are authentic. The point of debate among everyone is whether they are as effective as advertised.

Of course, a very few friends of Damocles had heard of his wolfsbane potion, but due to the power of the Greengrass family and the fact that Damocles was dead, no one stood up to expose the matter.

Then, suddenly one day, people discovered how the humanoid restoration spell was so similar to the plot written by Lockhart in the book? Could it be...

The second update is here, it’s still the same time for the next update!

Regarding expired food in supermarkets:

I actually did an internship at Carrefour. One of the important jobs of the supermarket clerk is to take away the expired/expired/damaged food from the shelves, collect them and throw them in the corner of the warehouse (usually in a corner) The shopping cart is full)

Some charitable groups that work with supermarkets will take them away and distribute them to the poor for free.

Sometimes, supermarkets will also discount food that is not yet close to its expiration date (such as a week or two before expiration).

——This is the case in France.
