Chapter 233 Professors' Journey of Reminiscence

Before the Dementors attacked.

The professor's carriage was filled with laughter and chatting, and the atmosphere was particularly relaxed and pleasant.

This year, Hogwarts hired a lot of new professors, and they were all arranged by Sebastian in this special professor carriage.

After introducing each other, the professors gradually became familiar with each other.

They sat together in groups of three or four, reminiscing about their youthful school days or enthusiastically discussing their respective lesson plans.

Lupin and Newt sat in the corner, sharing with each other some interesting changes about Hogwarts this year.

“It’s quite special to have all the professors travelling together on the Hogwarts Express,” Newt said with a smile.

Lupin shrugged, the corners of his mouth slightly raised: "This is all Sebastian's idea. He said that we should relive our school days."

Newt leaned back in his chair with a faint smile on his face. "I didn't expect to be able to ride the Hogwarts Express again after so many years. I almost thought I would never get on this train again."

Lupin smiled and said, "Yes, this trip brings back many memories of school days."

Newt raised his hand, rubbed his shoulder, smiled bitterly and said, "I enjoyed it at first. After all, the memories of school are still wonderful."

"But now I have to sit for a long time, and my old arms and legs can't stand it anymore."

Lupin grinned and said, "When we get to Hogwarts, you'll have to give Sebastian a good scolding."

He thought for a moment and whispered, "I think that Headmaster Dumbledore agreed to this plan for other reasons."

"I guess it's to deal with Sirius Black's prison break. If he's so crazy as to attack the train, the professors are there, so at least there's a response."

Newt raised an eyebrow. "That's a reasonable explanation, but I don't think he's that crazy."

As they continued their discussion, suddenly, the train shook slightly and began to slow down.

Newt noticed the change in the scenery outside the window. He frowned and touched the window glass with his fingers. He instantly felt a strange chill.

This feeling...

It's a dementor!

He stood up suddenly and said to the professors who were still in confusion: "The Dementors are coming. Professors who know the Patronus Charm, go out and guard the students to prevent the Dementors from doing harm to them."

The professors in the carriage suddenly became quiet.

Although there is no sign of Dementors yet, no one doubts Newt's judgment.

As the most famous master of magical creatures in the wizarding world, most professors grew up using Newt's textbooks.

They all stood up and held their wands in their hands.

After a brief arrangement, the professors who knew the Patronus Charm hurriedly left the professors' carriage and walked towards the students' carriage.

At the critical moment, everyone demonstrated extraordinary professionalism.

Lupin also picked up the wand, feeling a sense of uneasiness spreading in his chest - Harry!

He involuntarily quickened his pace, walked quickly through several carriages and headed towards the rear of the train.

Suddenly, the train came to a screeching halt, the lights went out, and darkness fell.

The students' noisy voices came one after another.

"What happened? Why did you stop?"

"Ouch, don't step on my foot."

"It hurts. The suitcase fell off the luggage rack and hit me. I think I'm injured."

"Where's the prefect? ​​Why doesn't the prefect come out and explain what's going on?"

Seeing this, Lupin had no choice but to shout: "I am the professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts. All students, please stay in your seats and don't move. There may be danger in the corridor."

In order to maintain order, other professors also shouted.

"I'm the new Potions professor, don't panic!"

"I'm the professor of Charms..."

"I'm the professor of Transfiguration..."

......

The rain on the windows froze into ice, and the cold became more biting, as if an invisible hand was slowly strangling people's breath.

All the warmth and happiness in the carriage seemed to be ruthlessly taken away by something.

Seeing this, Lupin quickened his pace again. He took a deep breath, clenched his wand tightly, and was ready to cast the Patronus Charm at any time.

As soon as he entered the last carriage, he saw from afar a black figure trying to float into the students' compartment.

What was even more worrying was that Harry's roar was heard in the box, followed by an invisible spell that flew out and directly tore the wall behind the Dementors.

Damn!

Dementors are attacking students!

He quickly raised his wand and pointed it at the Dementor.

"Call the gods to protect you!"

Silver light burst out from the tip of his wand, transforming into a bright silver wolf, howling and pouncing at the Dementors.

In the box, looking at the cracks on the wall, Harry felt a flash of regret in his heart.

hateful!

Although this spell is powerful, it is ineffective against the monster in front of him.

Now how to do?

His head was getting heavier.

In a trance, Harry seemed to hear a scream coming from afar, the voice was full of fear and pleading.

Whose voice is that?

I feel so sad.

I really want to help this lady.

However, he felt that he had no strength in his body and could not move his arms, let alone cast a spell.

Just before he lost consciousness, Harry saw a silvery-white light driving away the monster in front of him.

Then he heard Lupin's roar: "Dementors! The person you are looking for is not here, get out of here!"

Great, Professor Lupin is here.

As soon as Harry relaxed, he completely lost consciousness.

After an unknown amount of time, Harry felt someone patting his face.

"Harry, wake up, are you okay?"

Harry forced his eyes open and found himself lying on his seat. Hermione and Ron were looking at him with worry on their faces.

Everything returned to normal, the lights in the carriage came on, and the train continued to move forward at a constant speed.

It's like a dream.

However, the broken wall behind Lupin reminded him that a monster had indeed been here just now.

"Harry, have a piece of chocolate, it will help your condition."

Seeing Harry wake up, Lupin breathed a sigh of relief and handed the chocolate to Harry.

"Don't worry, the Dementors have left, you are safe now."

"Take a good rest. I will go and discuss this with the other professors."

Seeing Harry eat the chocolate, Lupin closed the door of the compartment and walked towards the front of the train.

"Harry," Ron said excitedly, "what kind of spell did you just use? It was so powerful that it even tore the Hogwarts Express apart."

"Professor Lupin couldn't fix it with a Restoration Charm."

Ignoring Ron's question, Harry frowned and said, "There was a woman screaming just now. Do you know who it was?"

"Harry, no one screamed." Hermione told Harry what had just happened with a worried look on her face.

Harry remained silent, his mind filled with the woman's voice, but no one could provide any useful information.

No one spoke much during the rest of the journey. After more than ten minutes, the train stopped smoothly at the station.

In the heavy rain, students got off the bus one after another, and the scene was extremely chaotic for a while.

The professors reappeared, maintaining order while casting spells on the students in the rain.

The water and fire immunity spell, the drying spell, and umbrellas conjured up by Transfiguration.

Seeing this, some senior students took out their wands and followed the professors' example to help their classmates get rid of the cold.

The little wizards were no longer cold and quieted down. Under the command of the professors, they lined up in an orderly manner to board the carriages.

After a while, everyone appeared in the warm auditorium.
