What is called the first moon near the water, this is it!

While the wizarding people in the wizarding world were still worried about Sirius Black's whereabouts after escaping from Azkaban, Remus Lupin, who had a close relationship with Dumbledore, had already figured out the true purpose of Black's escape and actually put it into action!

"Hmm--"

Lupin held his breath, blinked in confusion, and after a few seconds, his brain was frantically spinning and he finally understood what Amosta Bryan was talking about.

"That's right, Amosta," Lupin said, his eyes twitching, and he pursed his lips.

"Ahem... Like you said... The 50,000 Galleon bounty from the Ministry of Magic, such a large sum of money... Well, if I can get it, I probably won't have to worry about eating for the rest of my life. ”ŴŴŴ.

Amosta nodded approvingly, if it weren't for his luck, his annual 'output' would be about 8,000, 50,000... In the three or four years since graduating, he hasn't necessarily made that much money in total!

"That's right--"

Amosta gently slammed the table again, looking at the werewolf in front of him who was going to enter the 'VIP ward' of St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Injuries in a short time, his eyes shimmered, and a wonderful idea suddenly popped into his mind,

"Hey, Remus, how about we work together?"

"Cooperation? You mean--" Looking at Amosta Blaine, who suddenly became eager, Lupin suddenly felt a chill pop up in his heart, and now, the one who became vigilant was him.

Amosta leaned over the table, as if he was afraid of leaking important trade secrets.

"We all already know that Blake escaped from Azkaban for revenge, and sooner or later he'll go to Harry Potter's--"

The spirited Amosta didn't notice what he said, which made Lupin's hand tremble under the table.

"--Predictably, he will try his best to get close to Harry Potter, although Hogwarts has Dumbledore, he is not omnipotent, just like the Slytherin Chamber of Secrets last year, Dumbledore failed to stop the conspiracy in time..., I mean, since you can show up at Hogwarts in the open, then you can help keep an eye on Potter, you are very vigilant, Remus, if Blake does try to get close to Potter, you will definitely be able to find some clues, when the time comes, you give me the clues, and I will track Blake, if we succeed, we can divide the fifty thousand gold galleons into thirty-seven! ”

Lupin remained eerily silent, not saying a word, and his attitude caused Amosta to misunderstand something.

"Are you too little?" Amosta frowned, and his tone became unkind,

"You know, Blake is a very dangerous thug, and with your skills, even if you find out, you may not be able to deal with him."

"No, I just--"

Lupin seemed to be blocked by something, and spit out word by word,

"I'm just confused, Amosta, Albus admires you, you could write a letter to Albus, he certainly won't stop you from returning to Hogwarts, but you--"

"I have my own reasons, Remus," Amosta said regretfully,

"I plan to stay in Hogsmeade, and if anything happens at the school, you can keep me informed."

Lupin was silent again, and after a long time, he asked slowly, in a very tired voice,

"What if... You really caught Blake, Amosta, what would you do with him? ”

Amosta shook his eyebrows, a little surprised by Lupin's question,

"Of course, it's handed over to the Ministry of Magic in exchange for a gratuity, Remus, isn't that what we're working together for?"

"Aren't you going to kill him?" Lupin looked gloomy, "He's guilty of a great crime. ”

"Judgment for sins is Wizengamot's business, not mine," Amosta said lightly, and then added,

"And life might be worth a little more."

Looking at Amosta, who had already made up his mind to make a large fortune of Galleons, Lupin's heart suddenly felt a deep sadness, which was neither for Amosta Blaine, nor for himself, but for his former good friend, Sirius Black.

When he decided to betray friendship and justice and surrender to Voldemort and offer Jaime and Lily the place, he must have thought that he would be able to gain Voldemort's trust and be given unprecedented glory by Voldemort.

But did he ever think that one day, because of that sin, he would be in the current situation, and be seen as prey by rising stars?

"I have one condition, Amosta, if you agree, then we will cooperate."

Lupin's expression became solemn, and he said in the most stern tone,

"If Sirius Black does fall into your hands one day, I want you to give him to me."

Perceiving Amosta's confusion, Lupin gasped twice and said, "He killed three of my friends... Very good friend, I had to kill him with my own hands. ”

Silent, silent.

Amosta stared deeply at the vicissitudes of life Lupin, only to realize that his previous guess had been wrong.... The werewolf suddenly agreed to become a professor at Hogwarts, not to make money, but to get revenge.

"Well, I grant your request..., if I catch Black, I will hand him over to you and let you kill him." Amosta nodded, "But after that, you'll only get twenty percent of the honorarium." ”

Eventually, Amosta and Lupin reached an agreement and signed a magical contract, in which Amosta, who had already suffered a loss, explicitly bound Remus Lupin not to tell anyone about the cooperation between the two.

"I've noticed one thing--" Remus's mood is much more stable, "the contract only binds me not to reveal the plan, but it doesn't bind you?" ”

Amosta stood up and stretched, waving his wand and putting away the contract.

"I'm very tight-mouthed, Remus, but I'm not sure you're going to turn around and tell Albus Dumbledore about it..., after all, there's something to be learned from the past."

When this was over, the two of them talked for a few more hours, not about Blake, but about the young wizards at Hogwarts.

Although a large part of the reason for joining Hogwarts as a professor was to catch Black, as Amosta said before, it was also a good opportunity to improve the negative image of the werewolf.

If he is doing well, then in the future, when the children he has taught enter the wizarding world, they may not hate werewolves so much when they know that there was a Defence Against the Dark Arts professor who once impressed them was a werewolf.

Time passed quietly in the bland, and in a trance, the day of school had arrived.
