Chapter 358 Dumbledore Returns
He listed the tasks he had to do one by one in his notebook, and then tried to figure out which magic, ancient runes and spells to use.
For any unclear parts, you can consult Professor Murray later; for any spells that you have not fully mastered, borrow books from Madam Pince.
This lady seemed to have read the entire library. Even if Vader could only vaguely describe what he needed, Madam Pince would immediately find the corresponding book.
Even though she was so familiar with the library, whenever Wade saw her, she was always reading a book.
Unless a student violated the library's ban, Madam Pince would immediately run over angrily and drive those students away angrily.
Yes... For example, like now -
A few students who had started quarreling for unknown reasons were chased by a feather duster and ran out of the library with their heads in their hands. The other students stared at the scene in amazement, and the original whispers immediately disappeared.
The worn feather duster flew back to the administrator's table and fell into the rattan barrel. The feathers on it opened and closed as if they were breathing.
Madam Pince smoothed her messy hair, turned around, and finally smiled faintly when she saw Wade waiting at the table.
"What book do you need to borrow this time, dear?"
A few minutes later, Wade returned to his seat with a thick stack of books and saw that there was another person next to him.
"—Harry?"
Harry nodded and was about to speak when Wade motioned for him to be quiet. He then took out his wand, waved it around, and put it back.
Other sounds nearby suddenly turned into a slight buzzing sound, as if there were bees collecting honey in the distance, which could not be heard if one did not pay attention.
"You can talk now," Vader said. "You don't know about Remus?"
Harry nodded, then shook his head.
"I didn't know it at first, but just now... Professor McGonagall has told me."
He raised his eyes, looked at Wade worriedly, and asked, "So it's true? Remus... turned into a werewolf in public and attacked passers-by?"
Vader said, "He transformed in the streets of Hogsmeade, but it is unlikely that anyone saw him—"
The vampire who saw that scene was probably being hunted by Dumbledore, so it doesn’t count.
Those vampires still wanted to put this matter in the newspaper, but Wade had been paying attention to the Daily Prophet these days, and everything was calm in the newspaper. People were not even willing to pay attention to the three fugitives.
However, Minister Fudge actually issued a law prohibiting government officials from accepting interviews from Liu Jing, which is said to have caused opposition from many people.
When Wade saw the news, he sent a message to Colliver, who was equivalent to the director of the TV station in Marchionne, asking them to send a letter to the Ministry of Magic in a few days requesting an interview with Madam Umbridge.
After a pause, Wade said, "And he didn't attack passers-by. Hagrid was nearby at the time, and he subdued the mad Remus. Dumbledore arrived soon, and no one was injured in Hogsmeade."
"But...how did he suddenly transform?" Harry said worriedly, "I asked Hermione, and she said it was not consistent with the characteristics of a werewolf."
Vader knew that Lupin must have been plotted against, but before he knew the reason, he did not speak out anything. He just said:
"Trust Professor Dumbledore - he's investigating and may soon tell us why."
Harry nodded and was silent for a long moment before he said:
"I just hope Remus can recover as soon as possible... I asked Professor McGonagall to let me visit him, but the professor didn't allow it..."
"I also heard that Remus was not sent to St. Mungo's either... Professor McGonagall just said that there are professionals helping with the treatment, but I don't know who it is..."
Seeing his expression, Vader fell silent.
Harry still envisioned that he was a very powerful healer. If he knew that it was Professor Snape, whom he hated the most, he would probably think that Lupin had been killed, right? I heard that in the potions class yesterday, Professor Snape scolded all the first-year Gryffindor students until they cried, and even his favorite Slytherin was not spared...
Vader wisely swallowed the news.
……
It was not until noon on Sunday that Wade finally received the message from Dumbledore.
He immediately rushed to the principal's office, and before he could knock on the door, he saw the oak door being pushed open.
"boom!"
The wooden door hit the wall with a sound like an explosion.
Snape strode out with a dark face. His terrifying eyes looked like he wanted to kill someone. Even when he saw Wade, his anger did not ease. He just snorted coldly, threw off his black robe that was blown up by the wind with one hand, and stepped onto the spiral staircase.
He couldn't even wait for the stairs to slowly turn down, and went downstairs quickly with "thump thump thump".
Wade put down his hand in greeting and knocked on the open door.
"Come in, Vader."
Dumbledore said.
When Wade walked in, he saw the headmaster looking exhausted, as if he had just come back from outside. The gray cloak hanging next to him was a little torn, and there was dust on his long white beard.
Dumbledore did not give himself a [Clean Up], but took out a box of lemon Sherbet from the cabinet and enthusiastically invited Wade: "Would you like one?"
Vader shook his head: "Thank you, but I don't like it. It's a bit too sweet."
"What a shame, this is my favorite Muggle sweet."
Dumbledore said, taking back the candy box and putting one in his mouth.
He squinted his eyes slightly, giving people a feeling of enjoyment.
Wade couldn't help but smile, and then he saw the principal waving his hand, and a glass of pomegranate juice appeared in front of Wade. After thanking him, he stood up and took a sip without rushing to ask any more questions.
Seeing Dumbledore, his originally anxious mood calmed down.
Later, treacle tarts, molasses tarts, toffee puddings and other sweets were added to the table, filling up the long table.
Dumbledore considered carefully for a while before carefully choosing a treacle tart as his first dessert of the day, and once again recommended his favorite delicacy to Wade.
This time Wade did not refuse. He took a pudding - among all the food on the table, this was the only one that was not very sweet.
Dumbledore took a bite and then said with emotion: "I'm sorry, it's just that when I'm with Severus, his expression is as if I'm taking poison, which makes me lose my appetite."
"You must have had a very hard time these past few days, right?" Wade said with understanding, and then asked curiously, "Did those vampires cause you much trouble?"
"Vampires are nothing, it's the people behind them who are the trouble."
It was unknown what Dumbledore was thinking of, and his expression looked a little sharp for a moment, and then returned to normal after a few seconds.
"Good news." He said with a smile, "Remus has regained his sanity and should be back to normal by tomorrow afternoon. Then, you can call Harry to visit him in the school infirmary."
