Chapter 380: Lupin and Blake

Over the next few days, there was only one topic of conversation in the school, Sirius Black, and the story of how he managed to break into the castle became more and more bizarre.

Seamofinigan of Gryffindor insists that Black has been transformed into a Dementor...... Infiltrated the castle with the guards.

Luna, on the other hand, thinks he is a painting demon who can freely enter and leave the castle's portraits.

The torn portrait of the Fat Lady was removed from the wall and replaced with Sir Cadogan.

However, the Gryffindor students didn't seem happy with him.

In the hallways, Kyle could always hear the gryffindor students complaining.

"That Sir Cadogan, he spends half of his day teasing people to duel him......"

"Every time I go into the common room, I have to waste five minutes to respond to his duel...... Because if you don't speak, he will keep provoking you. ”

"He always comes up with passwords that are ridiculously complicated, and he changes them at least twice a day."

"I think he's been on the eighth floor for too long."

It was said that "the corridor where Sir Cadogan had been before was rarely visited, and the owners of the other portraits did not welcome him very well." ”

"It's obvious because he always likes to talk gibberish, and of course no one welcomes him."

……

Within a few days, Sir Cadogan had replaced Blake as the new hot topic among Gryffindor students.

"At least he's brave."

At lunch, Fred smiled and said, "No other portrait would take the job, but Sir Cadogan would." ”

"And I've heard he volunteered." George also said next to him.

They didn't hate Sir Cadogan very much, and sometimes even took the initiative to provoke each other, so angry that he jumped up and down in the portrait.

To be honest, Kyle was also curious about Sir Cadogan, but he was only in charge of the Gryffindor common room and couldn't jump to Hufflepuff to work.

At this moment, Harry also walked into the Great Hall, but his expression was a little unhappy.

Percy followed him, observing his surroundings from time to time, as if a dragon could pop out of the corner and swallow Harry in one gulp.

This strange behavior inevitably attracted the attention of others.

"Here we go again...... This big head. ”

Fred glanced at him, and quickly turned his head again.

"What's going on?" Cedric asked curiously, "How do I feel like Percy is nervous?" ”

"It's because of Harry."

George explained: "The other day, my mother wrote to us saying that she wanted to help look after Harry, and then he became like this. ”

"You all know, between Black and Harry." Fred leaned over and said, "Mom...... Or most people think that the last time Black came to the castle was to kill Harry in order to avenge his master. ”

The others nodded.

"No wonder I've been seeing professors with Harry these days......" Qiu said suddenly.

"More than that." "Even when the Quidditch team was training, there was a Lady Hodge by the side. ”

"Percy probably thinks of himself as a professor, too." Fred pouted, "And this is the auditorium, Blake can't hide under the table." ”

As he spoke, he bent down and put his head under the table and asked, "Mr. Black, are you here?" Do you need some steak? ”

His funny appearance made many people laugh.

Harry probably thinks the same way as him.

Kyle saw him turn around and say something, and Percy didn't follow as closely as he could, but still kept a short distance.

The first session is a Defence Against the Dark Arts lesson.

After eating, Kyle and Connor go to the classroom.

Professor Lupin today seemed to be a little wrong, as if he had something on his mind, and he was always in trouble during class, and several times he called the wrong student's name.

In the end, he simply didn't continue the lecture, but asked the students to team up in pairs to practice the expulsion spell used to deal with the little devil.

Until the end of class......

"Kyle, can you stay for a while?" He said, "I have something I want to ask you. ”

After everyone had left the classroom, Kyle looked left and right...... To be honest, he was a little resistant to being left behind by Professor Lupin.

Luckily, there weren't any wardrobes or boxes or anything like that around this time, and there probably wouldn't be any Boggart or anything else.

However, Professor Lupin didn't notice Kyle's strange appearance, he closed the door and hesitated for a long time before asking, "Did you see him that day?" ”

"Who?"

"It's Sirius Black."

"Yes, I see." Kyle nodded.

"He's ...... What does it look like......" Professor Lupin asked in a whisper, "I mean to say...... Is he the same as the photo in the newspaper? ”

In just one sentence, his eyes changed several times, nervous...... Disappointed...... Hatred...... There seems to be a vague concern, but it is fleeting.

"You can see that it's one person, but there is still a difference."

Kyle thought for a moment and said, "He's thin, with only a layer of skin wrapped around his bones, scruffy, dirty, and his eye sockets are deep...... It seems that he must have suffered a lot in order to avoid the pursuit of the Dementors. ”

"He deserves it!" Professor Lupin suddenly slammed his fist on the table and said excitedly, "He should have ...... thirteen years ago"

As if sensing that he had slipped his mouth, Professor Lupin slammed his mouth shut and took a few deep breaths.

"I'm sorry Kyle, but you just thought I was talking nonsense." He barely managed to squeeze out a smile, "One last question, where did you lose it when you were chasing Blake before?" ”

"That's where Professor Dumbledore found us." Kyle said.

"Later we found out that there was a secret passage behind the tapestry that led to the fourth floor, and I think that's where he escaped."

Kyle spread his hands, "But we thought Filch must know about the secret passage too, so we didn't bother to tell the professors." ”

"Yes, Filch does know the secret passage...... But we searched the fourth floor for hours and found nothing. ”

Professor Lupin's eyes flickered, then he raised his head and said:

"Okay Kyle, thank you, it's been delayed long enough, let's go to the next class.

Oh yes, don't worry about being late, I'll go and explain to the professor when the time comes...... What's your next lesson? ”

"Potions ......," Kyle said, "Are you sure you can get Professor Snape not to deduct my points?" ”

"Uh......" Professor Lupin was silent.

"I can help you add up the points you deducted in the next class."
