Many people were disappointed to hear that the club would only open once a month...... They thought it was once a week.

But before they could say anything, Professor McGonagall glanced at her, and everyone immediately shut up and walked out of the auditorium in silence.

Kyle and the others walked down the hallway, and after turning a corner, Cedric suddenly asked:

"You say that if I go to Professor Lupin, will he agree to let me face the Dementors alone?"

"I don't know." Kyle shook his head and said, "But I think if you do, you'd better go find him as soon as possible, maybe by tomorrow, the Dementors will be out of the castle."

You know, neither Headmaster Dumbledore nor Professor McGonagall like those guys...... The one in the auditorium was purely used as a teaching aid. ”

"That's right." Cedric patted his head, "Don't wait for tomorrow, I'll go ...... now"

With that, he began to run back.

Others split up on the stairs and returned to the common room.

Kyle noticed that Connor hadn't spoken, and that his expression was confused, and he glanced back in the direction of the auditorium from time to time.

"You want to go to Professor Lupin too?" Kyle asked.

Connor nodded, then shook her head again.

She really wanted to have her own Patronus sooner, but she didn't want to face the Dementors...... Or maybe she learned the spell so that she wouldn't be affected by the Dementors.

There were some things that Connor really didn't want to go through a second time...... For example, when she was in first grade, her Animagus mouse.

She had forgotten about it, but the last time the Dementors appeared at the Quidditch pitch, she remembered the "great transformation" in the Forbidden Forest, and she had not eaten for several days.

Now that she sees the rat and wants to give it a kick, she is about to have a psychological shadow.

Connor shook her head again, casually making an excuse, "I'm just worried about Cedric, do you think he can succeed?" ”

"I guess so." "But only if the professors agree." ”

Cedric was now one last step away, and if he couldn't get past it, it would be a good idea to let someone else kick him.

Dementors are just the right fit for the job, and they're kicking quite far.

The two walked into the common room and sat down near the fireplace.

It was late in the day, but there were still a lot of people here, and everyone was talking about what was going on in the club, and there was no intention of sleeping.

Connor glanced at Kyle, who was baking sausages in the fireplace, and asked in a whisper:

"Is there any other way to help learn the Patronus Charm than the Dementors?"

"Yes." Kyle flipped the sausage on the tongs, "Patronus can influence each other, and a true Patronus can mobilize and deepen those happy emotions, making the process of learning this spell much more effective." ”

Connor blinked, "Then why didn't you tell Cedric before?" ”

"He didn't ask." Kyle rightly said, "I thought he liked Dementors." ”

"Who likes that kind of thing...... Connor said speechlessly.

"That's not good, who hasn't had a quirk." Kyle flipped through the tongs again and continued, "And most importantly, this method is more suitable for beginners to simplify the process, Cedric is now past this stage, to the last step.

"If he can't find the trick, even if he has a hundred Patronus around him every day, it's useless. In this case, the Dementors will help him much more than the Patronus. ”

"What about me...... Connor asked in a whisper, "will this work?" ”

"Yes." Kyle said, "It's too late today, how about tomorrow, go to the Room of Requirement." ”

"Hmm." Connor replied softly.

At this time, the aroma of grilled sausages had attracted many people, and the two did not continue the topic.

The Patronus Charm was a difficult spell, and after two hours of training, many people were hungry.

The rich smell of grilled sausages hooked their mouths.

Some people left the common room immediately, and when they returned, they had plenty to eat.

Bread, pumpkin juice, pies...... There's also whole rotisserie chicken and chunks of cutlets.

This has to say that Hufflepuff has the advantage.

Others go to bed hungry, but they can have a hearty supper in a short time.

And you don't have to worry about getting caught on a night tour.

The kitchen is next door, and unless the professor or Filch is guarding the door, it is impossible to catch them.

Soon, the sausages were also baked.

Kyle took a fork and handed Connor a slightly charred sausage.

Connor took it with a glint in her eyes.

"How's it going, is it cooked?"

"Uh-huh." Connor nodded repeatedly, "It's delicious." ”

"That's good." Kyle took one too.

Connor blinked, always feeling that something was wrong, but the constant scent from the tip of her nose made her forget about it quickly.

After a while, Cedric also returned.

As soon as he walked in, he was smashed in the face by various scents.

"More, get me one too!" He walked up to Kyle and snatched a sausage without saying a word, then took some toast from the other tables.

"Done so quickly?" Kyle asked.

Cedric shook his head, "No, I'm coming straight back." ”

"Because of Professor McGonagall?" Connor said, "Does she still disapprove of your contact with the Dementors?" ”

"No, Professor McGonagall was gone when I went, and Professor Lupin seemed to be feeling a little unwell."

Cedric said, "I waited at the door of the auditorium until everyone had left, and was about to go in, when I saw Professor Snape hand him a large cup of potion and say he needed it. ”

"Professor Lupin is sick again?" Connor asked.

In the first half of the academic year alone, Professor Lupin had taken two time off, once as a substitute teacher by Professor Snape and once by Professor McGonagall.

And according to Cho, they Ravenclaw have also missed a few Defence Against the Dark Arts classes.

"I guess so...... He drank all the medicine. ”

"And if you look closely, his face is a little worse than usual." I didn't think it was appropriate to let him touch the Dementors at this time, so I just came back. ”

"It's okay, you can go back to him in a few days." "Or wait until the club starts next month." ”

"That's all there is to it."

Cedric put down the pumpkin juice in his hand and said thoughtfully, "Do you think it's strange why Professor Lupin didn't look for Madam Pomfrey......

I mean, she was there, and she was much more professional than Professor Snape. ”

"Maybe Madam Pomfrey has something else to do." Connor said.

"Probably......" Cedric whispered as he took another sip of pumpkin juice.
