Chapter 218: Screaming Shack
Lupin once again returned to the outside of the castle, as the Defence Against the Dark Arts professor at Hogwarts, and the second phase was still the person who participated in the production and modification of the living map, Lupin clearly remembered every secret passage that could lead to the outside of the castle, and he could leave here openly, which was much stronger than when he was in Hogwarts before.

Looking at the familiar beating willow, unconsciously, they spent seven years under this tree, until now, he has to relive the plot of the secret passage in preparation for the attack of the beating willow.
Lupin believed that if Sirius did come, he wouldn't have chosen Hogsmeade's screaming tent as a hiding place.
Because he was there, Sirius's old friend, Professor Lupin, they both knew very well how to get to the Screaming House, and the name of the Screaming Room was born for their sake...... Whatever the reason, the Screaming Shed wasn't a great place for Sirius Black to hide.
At least, in the school, even if Lupin doesn't come, there's Dumbledore, and even Severus Snape.
The eagle hooked his nose, Lupin smiled self-deprecatingly, Severus didn't betray Dumbledore, betrayed the Order of the Phoenix, and his good friend, the upright, hot-blooded Sirius Black, became a traitor of shame.
The whereabouts of the Leaky Family, killing their best friend, Peter Pettigrew......
It's all so ironic that the most unexpected person is the one behind the scenes......
Thinking of this, Lupin not only took a deep breath.
Tonight's Hogwarts night is as beautiful as ever...... Far from the hustle and bustle of Muggle industry and technology, the skies at Hogwarts are as bright as they were years ago.
The cold moonlight scattered on the ground through the clouds, which made the outside extremely white.
However, this was not good news for Lupin, for it was almost the night of the full moon, and according to his usual experience, he would spend a few days in the forest, like the most ferocious beast, bloodthirsty and manic.
Thankfully, Snape had brewed a potion of wolf poison, which allowed him to regain some of his consciousness while transforming, so that he could sneak out of his office instead of the screaming sheds of Hogsmeade......
Damn, it's the screaming shed again......
Lupin flinched a little when he reached the entrance of the secret passage, he didn't know what he was up against, and he wished there was no one there, so he wouldn't use his wand......
After a long hesitation, Lupin finally sighed, it was his duty, his inevitable duty, and he knew the spell to use if needed, even though it was painful......
Lupin leaped lightly into the hollow of the tree under the beating willow, and the cat bent down, holding a wand in front of him with one hand, and groped forward to catch the light of the wand.
The inside of the secret passage was a little wet, and it was not too far from the black lake, and the smell of rotten wood filled the entire secret passage.
Everything is still so familiar.
After about forty minutes or so, Lupin pushed the plank above his head away with a heavy blow. Dust filled the tunnel, and it looked like no one had been in a long time.
He flapped his hand lightly twice, and when the dust cleared slightly, Lupin took his wand and came up from the secret passage.
The edges and corners of the dilapidated houses have been almost smoothed out, and the wooden pillars look a little rotten.
A dilapidated four-poster bed, with tear marks all over the vine, left from his transformation, and Sirius tearing to stop him, Portta's broken floor was still the same, only he was getting more tattered.
Lupin stretched out his hand and touched the traces of the aspect with some trembling, it didn't look like someone had been here.
As he walked, he searched around, and soon he found his most important thing on the table, a photo of the four of them.
Potter the smirkling, Sirius the hearty, Peter the timid, and him...... He stands at the rear, he is the tallest, which is the advantage of the werewolf......
The photograph had lost its magic, it had become the same as the black and white film of the Muggle world, the paper had yellowed slightly, and Lupin wanted to see it more at this time......
"It's beautiful, isn't it...... Remus!"
Suddenly, a voice came from a dark corner.
Lupin quickly turned, and he used his wand to illuminate the shadows in the corner......
It was a pale man with prominent cheekbones, sunken eye sockets, and a face that was not half bloody, but rather iron-blue.
The hair was so messy that it was knotted together, and the bare chest was bruised, and only skin was left there, and the ribs were clearly visible.
"You shouldn't be here, Blake......"
There was a dangerous glint in Lupin's eyes, and he could now burst out and knock Sirius to the ground at any moment.
"And where should I be?" Sirius stepped out of the shadows, looking at Lupin gloomily, and just walked back and forth on Lupin.
Lupin's wand didn't leave Sirius' direction for a minute.
"Azkaban?" Sirius smiled, "What, is that where you want me to be?"
"......" Lupin didn't speak, just stared at Sirius, he never expected Sirius to be waiting for him here, he just came here because of an inexplicable thought, or, reminiscing about the past?
"Looks like so!" Sirius cracked his mouth and grinned, his teeth as if they had rotted along with the wood.
"But, I've had enough of that place......" Suddenly, Sirius cried almost frantically, "he's still outside, and I'm crouching like a fool in that cage surrounded by Dementors, Potter because I'm dead......"
"Shut up, Black......" Lupin was furious, and a disarming spell sent Sirius flying with precision.
Sirius's body slammed into the wall of the house, making a muffled thud.
"Why do you still have the face to mention Potter...... You dirty, crazy murderer...... Why don't you stay in Azkaban and come out to continue your allegiance to your filthy master? like a monster...... Or, Peter's death is not enough for you, and you want to tell me to get rid of it together, so that you can maintain the pure-blood glory in you?" Lupin shouted almost frantically, and with a flick of his wand, the binding of magic lifted Sirius from the ground.
