Chapter 116: Sniffing the Patronus

Mrs. Rosmerta quickly brought three glasses of fiery hot butterbeer.

Sirius held up his large cup and said, "Merry Christmas!"

"Merry Christmas!"

Ralf, Shirley, and Hermione all raised their glasses and took a sip of the mellow Butterbeer, warming up.

"Sirius, I heard you had another argument with Professor Snape in the morning?" Rove asked curiously.

"Snape is just finding fault, he wants to keep Harry in confinement and not let him come to Hogsmeade." Sirius snorted coldly:

"Remus, did you know that Snape teaches at Hogwarts?"

"You know, I've heard about it many years ago." Lu Ping's color remained unchanged and nodded:

"I'm surprised that Dumbledore would make him a teacher here, and it seems that you two don't get along very well?"

"There will be a fight a few times a day, of course, it's just a fight now, but sooner or later there will be a fight." Sirius scoffed:

"He spoke ill of me at Dumbledore all day long, objected to me being a Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher, and wanted to kick me out of Hogwarts."

"It's normal for Snape not to like you, you used to joke about him and almost killed him." Lupin shrugged, "Of course, that joke has something to do with me."

"What's the joke that's so serious?" Hermione asked curiously.

"Hermione, Rove should have told you that I was a werewolf." Lupin lowered his voice and said:

"When I was still in school, I had to walk through the beating willow every month to scream at the shack and transform. Once, when Snape saw him, he secretly followed.

Sirius told Snape that he could follow me into the hollow by touching the knots on the trunk with a stick.

Sirius thinks so...... Oh...... It's funny. Anyway, Snape just tried."

After a pause, Lupin continued, "However, when Jaime heard what Sirius had done, he followed, pulled him back, and saved his life......

"Oh, that's too much!" Hermione's face was full of incredulity, and she said in horror, "Professor Blake, how can you get a student to watch a werewolf transform?!"

"Hermione, I was young, arrogant, and reckless." Sirius seemed to be afraid that the three Roves would have a bad impression of him, and hurriedly explained:

"Plus we're mortal enemies with Snape, like Harry and Malfoy...... Anyway, I did that stupid thing.

Thankfully, Jaime saved Snape, but he clearly didn't appreciate it."

Lupin sighed softly and said, "I'm also responsible, Dumbledore made me a prefect in the hope that I could restrain Jaime and Sirius...... But I clearly failed to live up to his expectations."

The grievances and hatreds of the year are indeed difficult to explain clearly with who is right and who is wrong.

Rove didn't want to continue the conversation, he looked at the wizard beside Lupin and whispered, "Lupin, it's time for you to introduce this guest to us."

"Yes, Rove, I've been chasing this guy for more than half a year, and I've finally got it." Lupin was a little excited, and reached out to lift the wizard's hat.

Underneath the hat was a middle-aged wizard, his cheeks and chin covered by a thick, stubby grayish beard cut to a very short length, and wrinkles and a few scars dotted on his face, making him look hideous.

Rove looked at the man and smiled, "Mr. Yoshimoto, it's been a long time, but I didn't expect to have a reunion day, it's so good...... Merry Christmas."

That's right, today's guest is Yoshimoto.

He traveled to Hermione's house with the werewolves Fenrir Greyback and Fanny during the summer vacation and attacked them.

Rove kills Fenrir Greyback and Fanny, but lets Gibbon run away.

After Lupin resigned and returned to England, he helped Rove hunt down Gibbon during this time.

At this time, Gibbon's whole body was bound by a spell, only his mouth could move, and he looked at Rove with a frightened face and said:

"Scamander, please don't kill me...... I can explain a lot

retribution."

Gibbon was deeply terrified of the teenager when he saw the bodies of Fenrir Greyback and Fanny in the newspapers.

"Of course, everything can be discussed, and there is nothing that cannot be discussed." Rove raised his glass, took a sip of butterbeer, and smiled:

"Tell me first, who is offering me a reward?"

"I don't know who that man is." Yoshimoto sighed, "He's always hidden under a hood and I can't see his face."

"His location was also told to us directly by him."

Rove narrowed his eyes, he had taken Shirley and Hermione to the Department of Mysteries at the Ministry of Magic, and had met many reporters...... Is it a leaked trace from that time?

"When was the last time he looked for you?"

"Just a week ago!" Gibbon's voice hurried, "He also contacted me to come to Hogsmeade to attack you this Christmas holiday, but I don't dare."

Rove narrowed his eyes and asked, "How did he contact you?"

Yoshimoto said in a hoarse voice, "He was cautious and found me through an owl, but each time he would change the owl and ask me to meet."

Rove rubbed his eyebrows, and after a moment of silence, he said in a deep voice, "Gibbon, I can not kill you, but you have to cooperate with me now."

"I'm willing to cooperate...... Yoshimoto hurriedly said, "How to cooperate?"

"I want you to keep talking to that man." Rove's voice flickered, "You can properly agree to his request."

"Lupin, you follow Gibbon and help him reply to the letter, I'm going to lure the man out!"

"Okay, Rove." Lupin nodded seriously and said, "Leave it to me."

After talking about the details of luring the snake out of the hole, Rove takes Shirley and Hermione out of the three broomsticks and walks down the snow-covered road.

[In view of the general environment,

Shirley said strangely, "Rove, Namelia is obviously divining, that person is dead, how could he still meet Yoshimoto a week ago."

"That's where I wonder." Rove sighed.

"Is Nymeria the Centaur who ran away from marriage?" Hermione wondered.

"It's her." Rove nodded, "I recently went to her to re-divination, and the results of her divination show that the wizard who rescued Peter is dead."

"But he's still in contact with Yoshimoto." Hermione puzzled, "And the Sniffing Patronus on Halloween night...... Whose will it be?"

"I don't know what my Patronus will look like." Shirley asked softly, "What does its form usually have to do with it?"

"The Patronus is a reflection of all your most positive emotions, often in the form of the animal that is most relatable to the wizard." Rove explained.

"The so-called ...... is born from the heart"

"That patronus is a sniffing wizard, I'm afraid his personality is very stubborn, greedy for money, like a scoundrel?" Hermione interjected.

"So to speak." Rove rubbed his chin and said confusedly, "But I don't seem to have any friends like that around me."

Hermione's little eyes couldn't help but glance at Rove, she had this kind of friend by her side, right in front of her!
