Harry looked at the man in front of him excitedly. It could be seen that his life was not satisfactory, and his robes were shabby and full of patches.
Since coming to the wizarding world, this is the most miserable outfit Harry has ever seen - although the repair spell is not a panacea, it can indeed greatly extend the service life of clothing items.
The boy who still regarded the days at the Dursleys a year ago as his greatest pain could not imagine what it would be like to travel through mountains, forests and swamps with a group of werewolves.
In order to fulfill his promise to Harry, Ani was looking for Lupine and learned some things about him after graduation. He is a person who is willing to take risks for others, has a spirit of dedication and sacrifice.
When you get to know him, it's hard not to feel a sense of goodwill and respect in your heart, which is why Aini is willing to help him.
Harry didn't know this, but his downcast appearance did not affect his affection for Lupine.
Perhaps it was because he had read Lu Ping's diary too many times, but even though it was his first meeting, the boy felt that the other person was inexplicably familiar and cordial, as if they had known each other for a long time.
In fact, the two did meet, but Harry didn't remember it at that time, so he naturally didn't leave much of an impression.
"Mr. Lupine will stay until the end of the holiday. I hope you can successfully master Occlumency before then."
After speaking, Aini turned and left, leaving space for the two of them to be alone.
I don’t know why, even though he already knew Lu Ping, he still had some feelings after meeting him. The joys and sorrows of people are not the same, but the suffering experienced by kind-hearted people is often more likely to arouse empathy.
.
"Ani, you're back."
Hearing the sound of the door opening, Hermione raised her head from her books.
Min's parents went on a trip again, so the girl had to risk her sense of smell to stay in school for Christmas.
"Well, Mr. Lupine has arrived. You can go to learn Occlumency with Harry tomorrow. The two of them will definitely have a lot to say today."
After entering the door, Aini went to wash a few apples, produced by Sylvie, to keep them sweet.
Looking at the tempting red apples, the girl put down her book temporarily, picked up one and took a bite.
"It tastes really good. It tastes much better than the one my dad bought last time. I don't know why, but I always feel that the food at home is not as delicious as the food at school."
Hermione chewed the crystal sweet crisp in her mouth, her big eyes narrowed into a cute arc.
"Actually, Muggle food has a richer taste. However, after becoming a wizard, food lacking magical power will not taste bad, but it will taste less fresh than magical food."
Ani also picked up the apple and took a bite, then picked up another and handed it to Jerry, who was looking over eagerly, but Tom ran there to play again.
"Is that so? But Hogwarts also has a lot of Muggle ingredients?"
Hermione remembered that the last time she went to the kitchen, she saw a lot of Muggle-style packaging.
"But they are processed into finished products in the magical world, and certain changes will naturally occur during the cooking process."
Like potions, magical cooking is also a science, and Ms. Hufflepuff was very good at this craft thousands of years ago.
Next, he explained some relevant knowledge to Hermione. A flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in Aini's mind, allowing him to grasp some overlooked connections. But before he had time to think about it, the girl's question came to him again.
.
"Is Mr. Lupine a senior in Gryffindor? I feel like you value him very much."
Hermione clipped the bookmark and closed the tome in front of her. There are times when even a top student doesn't want to read.
"Ha, am I so obvious?"
Aini smiled, he did think highly of Lupine, well, maybe it would be more appropriate to say appreciation, admiration, regret, etc.
"He is a good friend of Harry's father. He is a kind, upright, dedicated person, and also very capable."
In many cases, [kindness] is not valued by people, and there is no clear standard for how to define it.
But this quality is particularly valuable in Lu Ping, a person who encountered the evil side of people's hearts at a young age and was troubled by it for half his life.
Aini praised a few words, but didn't say much else. After all, Lupine's identity is a bit sensitive, and some words are not appropriate to say.
On the way here, Aini deliberately recruited Lupine and asked him to work at Breath of Nature.
He is hard-working, not afraid of difficulties, and never cares about personal gains and losses after accepting a task. Even if he is a perennial undercover in the werewolf group, he has no complaints. Who wouldn't want a subordinate like this?
Unfortunately, Lu Ping refused after pondering for a while.
Breath of Nature's treatment was impeccable, but Lupine felt that the things Dumbledore asked him to do were more meaningful.
"I've never heard you speak so highly of anyone, so I'm suddenly looking forward to meeting you tomorrow."
Hermione smiled and took another bite of the apple, and suddenly felt some sweet annoyance - just like other products produced by Hagrid, the apple in her hand was too big, and it seemed that she couldn't finish it.
In the Gryffindor lounge, Ron looked at the big red apple in his hand and was equally confused. How could those two guys be so kind!
"Have a try, Ronnie. We stole this from Hagrid with great difficulty."
George winked and said, with an abnormal sense of expectation in his eyes.
Faced with the strange look of the two people leaning over and rubbing their hands, Ron decisively threw the apple back, even though he had no idea...
Ah, I have always been simple and too lazy to think about those convoluted things, but anyone who has been deceived into being a guinea pig more than ten times in the same way will never eat anything sent by the twins again.
"You really don't want to eat it? Then we can give it to Jordan!"
Ron continued to pout, pretending, and pretending, how long has it been since Jordan believed your ghost last time, took off his clothes and went out for a night out and was caught?
Seeing that their younger brother was unmoved, the twins looked at each other. Could it be that they have used their spell-like abilities too much and have developed resistance?
Sometimes wizards have unique talents, such as Tonks, which can transform into various different appearances.
Pierre Bonacud, the founder of the International Federation of Wizards, believes that every wizard has special talents, but some people's talents are relatively weak, and some people's talents overlap with magical abilities, so they have not been discovered.
.
The twins have been easy to win the favor of others since they were young. Although their family members sometimes get angry when faced with their pranks, they will soon smile and find it quite interesting.
And when Ron imitates, he is often greeted by a meal of chopped wood and stir-fried meat...
The two of them didn't pay too much attention to it before. There are always some individuals who are naturally lovable, right?
But last time Jordan actually followed their advice and ran out for a night out, the twins felt something was wrong.
After careful observation, the two found that when they were together, a certain aura began to radiate around them, and those affected would subconsciously get close to and be convinced.
Although the twins didn't understand the specific principle, after some guidance, the two were able to roughly control the aura, and then Ron ate a lot of strange things.
Who would have thought that this invincible method would actually fail, so the two of them saw Ron extending a hand to them.
