He dragged the invisibility cloak in his hand and walked in the castle in confusion.

"Hey, this place is blocked!"

Mrs. Portrait stood in front of Harry, she said, "You are a Gryffindor student, you should go to the Ravenclaw lounge!"

Harry raised his head slowly.

Unconsciously, he returned to the door of the Gryffindor rest area, which was temporarily blocked because of Sirius.

Sirius, it's Sirius again!

The anger in Harry's heart rose uncontrollably.

PS: There is another chapter in the evening

​​

Chapter 428 Chapter 69 Christmas Eve and Oil Painting

"Please briefly explain: why is any simply connected, closed three-dimensional manifold necessarily homeomorphic to a three-dimensional sphere?"

Harry Potter was a little stunned.

He had heard the rules of the Ravenclaw rest area, and he had to answer the question of the eagle-shaped bronze door knocker before he could enter it.

But, is the problem so difficult?

Holding the invisibility cloak, the little savior stood at the door of the Ravenclaw rest area worrying. It was already curfew time. Because of the Death Eater and Dementor incident, the students basically wouldn't come out at night.

This also proves one thing, he can't get in.

"Harry Potter?"

A hesitant and pleasant female voice appeared behind her.

Harry looked sideways, it was a gentle and beautiful Asian girl, holding a book in her arms, Harry's face was a little red, he recognized this girl as a classmate in the arcane class with him.

Autumn Zhang.

Like Professor Ivan, he is from the Far East.

Qiu-Zhang looked at the eagle head knocker, she was smart, she figured out everything, and explained with a smile: "This is the insurance set up by Professor Ivan, not from Ravenclaw, you need to answer the questions set by him. to get in."

"Gryffindor is usually accompanied by Ravenclaw before entering the rest area."

Only then did Harry remember that he had never faced a problem before, it was Hermione who opened the door.

Qiu-Zhang pursed his lips and walked forward a little shyly.

She reached out and knocked on the door.

The eagle-headed bronze knocker on the door read out a question: "Please name a food that Dumbledore likes?"

This question is much more normal.

Qiu-Zhang: "Lemon ice cream."

The Eagle Head Knocker opened its wings, and the door to the lounge opened slowly. Qiu Zhang smiled shyly at Harry and walked in first. Harry was blinded by the gentle smile and recovered his senses. , he was already standing in a library-like rest area.

"Harry!"

Hermione and Ron rushed over in a hurry, Hermione carefully checked Harry's situation, heaved a sigh of relief, and rudely reprimanded: "Where did you run away alone, and let Ron give you an invisibility cloak! You know what? I don't know, if we hadn't given you cover..."

She hasn't finished speaking yet.

Harry grabbed the two and hid in an unoccupied corner, telling his good friend everything he had peeped and overheard.

He looked bewildered.

Fear of the Dark Lord, fear of fate, hatred of Sirius.

All kinds of complex emotions are intertwined.

"Dumbledore must have his reasons." Hermione analyzed: "If you are the one who stopped Voldemort from the prophecy, then before you grow up, nothing can happen!"

Harry hugged his head in pain.

"Am I just a tool to deal with Voldemort, is my life worthless?"

Hermione and Ron moved closer to his friend's distress.

"I was there during the debate between Professor Ivan and Trelawney about fate, and I thought about it for a long time after I went back. Harry, the future is in our own hands, and the value of our lives is also realized by ourselves! ' said Hermione.

"You are not a tool to deal with Voldemort." Ron said seriously: "You are Harry Potter, our good friend, and our pride!"

"what do I do?"

Harry's voice trembled: "I'd rather Dumbledore agree to Fudge's conditions, as long as I can catch Sirius, let me do anything!"

"Harry!" Hermione sternly said, "What are you talking about, do you want to give up on yourself? You don't just have hatred, you also have relatives, including us, Hagrid, and Professor Ivan!"

"Can't you see so many people who care about you at all?"

Hermione's reprimand shook Harry's mind.

"Brother! Don't think so much!" Ron hugged his friend: "Sleep, everything is over!"

He gave Hermione a wink and motioned her not to be so stern. Hermione was still extremely angry. She didn't want her best friend to abandon herself.

Fortunately, with these two friends, Harry finally cheered up a lot.

.....

Snape came to Zhou Qi's office.

He has already developed the Werewolf Reversal Potion. It has to be said that in order to develop this Potion, he gradually merged the knowledge of potions and biology, and used a microscope to open the door to the cellular world.

Putting the light blue potion bottle lightly on the table, Snape's gaze involuntarily turned to the huge oil painting on the wall.

The oil painting is not as chaotic as Dumbledore saw it, but there is logic and order.

The center is a large blank, and the surrounding is all black.

Black and white are clearly distinguished.

The impact is coming.

"I should be able to draw it before Christmas." Zhou Qi glanced at the oil paintings on the wall with his eyes, and smiled: "Would you like to come and watch it after you finish the painting?"

"Forget it." Snape said indifferently, he had no interest in magic paintings at all.

Zhou Qi stopped at the potion and laughed playfully.

"You can give it to Professor Lupin yourself, just to solve the grievance between you."

Snape was already immune to Zhou Qi's situation where he knew everything, and he had no idea of ​​reconciling with Lupin, even though Lupin felt guilty about him and made good friends from time to time.

Seeing that Snape was unmoved, Zhou Qi shrugged helplessly.

Before leaving, Snape suddenly turned around and said, "Connelly-Fudge came to us in the evening."

He told all the topics of the dinner party.

"Harry Potter should be there." Snape said calmly: "He is wearing an invisibility cloak. Although I can't see it, I can feel that there is one more person in the room."

Zhou Qi nodded lightly, instead of asking about Harry, he asked directly: "Finally, what is your final answer to the Minister of Magic's thoughts?"

Snape pushed open the door.

"Of course he refused." He said in a low voice, "We haven't fallen to the level of letting a child protect us."

When the words fell, he stepped into the darkness.

Zhou Qi picked up the reversal potion on the table, shook it slightly, looked up at the magic painting that was about to be completed, and smiled.

The next day.

"Can it really turn me back into a human being?" Lupin's arm was shaking while holding the light blue potion. He was always gentle like a gentleman, but his eyes lit up with excitement.

Zhou Qi: "I checked, and it can indeed change the life of a werewolf. This potion is not made by me, but made by Professor Snape! If you want to thank, thank Professor Snape. Bar!"

Lupin was stunned.

He gently placed the potion on the table and sighed.

"I did something wrong when I was young, and my relationship with Professor Snape deteriorated, and he never forgave me... Of course, I also know that I don't deserve to be forgiven.

Professor Ivan, if possible, please convey my thanks to him on my behalf! Please also convey my apologies, no matter what I do to atone for my sins! "

The relationship between Zhou Qi and Lupin is still very good.

Lupin also admired this Muggle professor very much, and the Muggle magic he created, full of creativity that is completely different from existing magic, although Sirius was quite disdainful of arcane magic.

This is also normal.

No matter how rebellious and proud Sirius is, he is still a member of the pure-blood family, and will inevitably be disgusted by the arcane arts that challenge the status of wizards.

Think of Sirius.

Lupin's heart moved, he didn't ask everyone to believe that Sirius was innocent, but at least he could make Professor Ivan believe, maybe he could take this as a breakthrough and gradually reverse everyone's concept of Sirius.

Thinking of this, he pulled up other topics and started to talk side by side.

"Little Sirius?" Hearing the name, Zhou Qi was taken aback for a moment, seeing the hope rising in Lupin's eyes, and said in a deep voice, "I am not a wizard in the actual sense, but an arcanist. Judging by scientific thinking, I was skeptical about Sirius before I saw it with my own eyes."

"An old saying in the Far East: If you listen to everything, you will be bright, and if you believe in partiality, it will be dark. It means to listen to opinions from many sides, have your own thinking, and not follow others' opinions."

Lupin was very happy with Zhou Qi's attitude.

Although Professor Ivan did not explicitly support Sirius, he did not completely deny Sirius. He is the one who can win.

Send Zhou Qi out of the office in person.

Lupin closed the door, opened the seamless extension box in the corner, and the **** dog jumped out of it and turned into a human shape.

"This Muggle is quite interesting." Blake muttered softly.

His affection for Zhou Qi has risen a lot.

Lupin: "Professor Ivan has enough status in Harry's heart. When I find a suitable opportunity, I will explain your matter - I believe that with his help to explain, Harry will definitely understand."

"I hope so!" Blake sighed in a low voice. He was hiding in the seamless extension box and couldn't get out. He almost ran out when he heard that Harry was attacked by a dementor.

Fortunately, Lupin pulled him back.

Otherwise, he would have been arrested at this moment.

Blake turned to the potion on the table, full of curiosity: "Is this really effective? Try it now! You don't have to worry about turning into a werewolf on a full moon night!"

Lupin was also nervous.

He carefully picked up the potion, opened the bottle cap, and drank it.

Snape didn't do anything in the potion. Although he hated Lupin, his pride did not allow him to do anything out of the ordinary. Lupin, who took the reversal potion, felt that his whole body was shaking. hot.

The bones and muscles of the body seem to be dissolving and reorganizing.

He howled in pain, half of his body turned into a wolf, and one side was a man, but as the medicinal effect evaporated, the man's half was occupied, and the wolf's part was slowly swallowed up.

Blake was frantic beside him.

"This medicine is completely different from holy water!" If it wasn't for fear of causing panic, he would have grabbed the medicine bottle and ran out to question Snape.

Lupin was in pain for a while and collapsed to the ground.

Sweat pooled into a ditch.

His face was pale and weak, but his face showed ecstasy.

Blake then came back to his senses, also showing an ecstatic expression.

The werewolf disease that had plagued Lupin for decades was finally cured, and he no longer had to hide because of the full moon's transformation.

Although Snape didn't do anything with the medicine, he didn't add painkillers or hypnotic ingredients to the medicine. Unlike Zhou Qi, he perfectly considered the patient's feelings and could recover after taking the medicine and taking a nap.

Lupin, on the other hand, felt the pain of body reorganization in all aspects.

Zhou Qi discovered this, but he didn't say it - this was also Snape's way of venting his grievances. Maybe if his grievances came out, the relationship between the two could be reconciled.

Lupin, who had returned to a normal human, finally had the confidence to appear in the eyes of the students.

He also didn't need to leave quietly every full moon. In the eyes of others, even the smile on Lupin's face made him feel a lot more confident.
