Chapter 1474: The Inheritance of Prejudices

However, judging from the photos that Evan received, Gabrielle is actually about the same size as Elaine......

As a corollary, Fleur's statement should be untenable, as Elaine is certainly not a mature big girl.

In addition to this, Fleur tells them that Gabrielle had wanted to apply to study at Hogwarts as an exchange student.

However, in view of the current situation, her application was ultimately dismissed.

Because Fleur's voice was too loud, Mrs. Weasley glared at her dissatisfied.

She frowned and kept adjusting the volume with her wand to make Cetina sing louder and louder.

"Oh, come and stir up this pot of soup of mine. ”

"If you do it properly, I will boil out the fiery love and accompany you to be warm tonight. ”

Under the cover of a particularly jazzy tune, "A Pot of Fiery Love", Fred and George play crackling cards behind the Christmas tree with Ginny and Elaine exploding, and Harry, Ron, and Mr. Weasley discuss something at the dinner table as if it were about Muggle radio and television.

And then there's Lupin, who is also at the Burrow for Christmas today.

After not seeing him for a few months, he looked particularly haggard.

Lupin sat by the fireplace, staring into the depths of the fire, thinking about something, as if he couldn't hear Cetina's voice.

Evan looked over to Lupin, spoke to Hermione, Bill, and Fleur, and walked over to Lupin.

"You look so choked. Evan said.

"yes, that's a choking. You know, I work underground, I barely see the sun, I can't connect with other people, it's going to be exposed, and I can just sneak out at this point. Lupin smiled, but it made him look even more haggard, with deep shadows under his eyes, and a malnourished look.

Evan knew that Lupin was mingling with the werewolves, acting as a spy for the Order of the Phoenix.

The work is dangerous and hard at the same time.

He hesitated for a moment and continued, "How's that going?"

"There's not much progress, it's hard to gain their trust. I've seen a few times with the obvious marks of my past life among wizards, who have always avoided normal society, living on the fringes of the wizarding world, stealing food, and sometimes killing people. "But I still got some useful information, you went to the underground world of Tumbledown Alley three months ago, didn't you?"

"We're following Malfoy, and we're running into Greyback there, does he recognize us?"

"I don't think so, he just thought it was a few lost Hogwarts students, but I knew it was you as soon as I heard it. "Listen, Aven, I know what you're capable of, but you shouldn't risk it, especially when Harry ......"

"I don't need to take care of me, I'm not a kid anymore. Harry said, tilting his head to this side, joining the conversation between the two, "Malfoy is really suspicious, Remus, we can now be sure, he's a Death Eater, Voldemort gave him a mission, he must be planning to do something......"

He repeated the conversation he had overheard last night and looked at Lupin expectantly.

Lupin was silent for a moment before asking, "Did you tell Dumbledore?"

"Yes, but Dumbledore told me to leave it alone. Harry said gloomily, "Malfoy and Snape are plotting right under our noses, but Dumbledore doesn't think it matters. ”

"The headmaster has his own plans. Evan comforted him.

"Yes, but he won't say anything. ”

"I think since Dumbledore didn't say anything, it might not really matter, or maybe he didn't think it was time to say it. "I don't know much about Draco Malfoy, but I trust Severus about him." I know you don't like to hear that, Harry, but Dumbledore trusts Severus, and that should be enough for us, and if you trust Dumbledore's judgment, then trust Severus. ”

"But Dumbledore makes mistakes...... Harry argued.

"You're determined to hate Severus, Harry, just as you're determined to hate Draco. Lupin smiled weakly, "I understand, Jaime is your father, Sirius is your godfather, they used to have so many unpleasant things with Severus, and you inherited a prejudice from them. But it may not be as you might think, maybe Dumbledore ordered Severus to ask Draco, maybe Draco was out of his own hands to do something for Voldemort. That's why Dumbledore was less surprised by what you said, and told you to leave it alone. ”

Harry stopped talking, and I have to say that Lupin was still very rational, much more rational than Sirius.

"Don't talk about it, what the hell is going on between you and Tonks?"

"I have nothing to do with her. There was a clear hint of panic on Lupin's face, and he was not as confident as he had just been.

"Nothing?" said Aven, "she looks as haggard as you do now." ”

"She, I'm just ......" Lupin was silent for a moment, "she's fine, right?"

"I don't know, you should ask her personally. Evan said, "I don't think she cares who you are as a werewolf. ”

Lupin looked at him in particular surprise, "You know it all, yes, I'm a werewolf, it's a cursed identity, and when I transform, I can't guarantee how much sanity I have left, so, so, I can't ......"

"We all think you're normal, no different from everyone else, and Tonks thinks the same way. ”

Lupin shook his head stubbornly, just as he had just said to Harry. Harry inherited a prejudice from his father, Jaime and Sirius, which made him determined to hate Snape, and so did Lupin, whose werewolf status gave him a preconception and inferiority complex that kept him from Tonks.

This kind of thing can only be figured out by himself, and no one else can help much.

On Christmas Eve, two unpleasant topics were mentioned in quick succession, which was really out of place.

At this point, Cetina ended her singing with a long high note.

"Now that you've torn it up, give me back my heart!"

There was loud applause on the radio, and Mrs. Weasley clapped excitedly.

"It's over?" exclaimed Fleur, "thank goodness it's ugly!"

Hermione stuck out her tongue and sat down next to Aven, glad she had gotten rid of Fleur.

Fred, George, Ginny, and Elaine had just finished a round of crackling and exploding cards, and when they noticed a sudden silence, Mr. Weasley jumped up and asked in a loud voice, "How about a drink before bed? Who wants eggnog?"

"Honey, I'll go get it. Mrs. Weasley said.

While she went to get eggnog, everyone else stretched out and chatted.

Hermione took the opportunity to ask Mr. Weasley about the latest moves in the club, and everyone was concerned about this.

"It's so busy right now, Scrimgeour hopes to be able to effectively stop the Mysteries and the Death Eaters, but we can't find anyone, they seem to be hiding, coming out every now and then to carry out raids. No progress at all, in fact, if it were, but of the three people arrested in the past two months, I suspect none of them were real Death Eaters. As soon as he finished speaking, he added, "Don't talk about it, boys, it's confidential." ”
