The Alchemist of Harry Potter

Chapter 762 Persuasion
"When does the party start?"

"What party?" Albert asked suspiciously.

"Of course it's a meeting of the Defense Association. You didn't forget about it on purpose, did you?" Shanna stopped, turned her head to stare at Albert, and almost put her head in front of him, asking whether Albert was Didn't forget about it on purpose.

"Others are going to the party when they hear about it," Shanna said as they walked. "They're all asking when you start?"

"Don't tell me that by other people you mean a large group of girls!" Albert asked tentatively.

Shanna snorted and couldn't help laughing, "Isn't it popular with the girls?"

"They're troublesome sometimes."

"If the girls hear it, I don't know how sad it will be." Shanna gave an expression that you really don't know what to do.

"You sure don't go around talking nonsense."

"Well, of course there are some girls." Shanna quickened her pace and followed Albert, saying to herself, "Most of them are fifth grade students. An excellent result."

"That's good. But... I can't find a suitable meeting place for the time being." Albert said rather helplessly, "I'm not sure if Professor McGonagall agrees with us using the empty classroom in the castle."

"If it doesn't work, what are you going to do?" Shanna frowned, trying to think about how to solve this problem.

Before arriving at the door of the Defense Against the Dark Arts office, she still couldn't think of a suitable way.

"Can I be in the auditorium?"

"Certainly not, we need enough space to practice magic." Albert shook his head and vetoed, "Believe me, if we practice magic in the auditorium, Professor McGonagall will definitely put me in confinement."

"But isn't your wizard card club in the auditorium?" Shanna asked confused.

"That's different."

"Okay, but we don't have much time. It's already March, and there are less than three months left." Shanna suddenly understood why Albert was reluctant to become a defense association. It is a difficult problem to solve in itself.

"Well, don't worry, we can always find a solution to the problem." Albert comforted.

"Well, I'll leave this to you."

After Albert said that he would solve it, Shanna guessed that Albert probably had a plan.

This guy definitely didn't say anything on purpose, it's just too irritating.

After taking a few deep breaths and readjusting her emotions, Shanna raised her hand and knocked on the door of the Defense Against the Dark Arts office.

"Mr. Anderson, Miss Wilson, what's the matter?" Lupine was a little surprised, probably not expecting someone to visit him at this time.

Albert found that Lupine's face was pale, his clothes were baggy, and he looked like he had just been ill.

"Professor, we heard you were sick." Shanna held up the basket of sweets and flowers.

"Thank you, would you like to come in and sit for a while?"

Professor Lu Ping smiled very kindly. He didn't expect a student to visit him.

The three of them chatted about yesterday's Defense Against the Dark Arts class, and Lupine probably understood why the two of them came to visit him, obviously worried o. w． Ls' Defense Against the Dark Arts exam questions, or Gryffindor students worry about o. w． Ls' Defense Against the Dark Arts exam, so the two of them came to visit themselves.

"Don't worry, in the next few lessons, I will focus on the main points of the Defense Against the Dark Arts class, so that you can have enough time to review this class on Easter." Lupine comforted, he Not disappointed by this, but relieved that Defense Against the Dark Arts really got messed up.

"Miss Wilson, are there any other questions?" Lupine saw that Shanna hesitated to speak.

"Professor Lupine, maybe I'm rude to say this, but have you thought about resigning early or changing positions." Shanna hesitated for a moment before asking.

"Resign early, why?" Professor Lu Ping was very surprised.

"This course is cursed, and I think you should know that, almost no professor can stay in this course for more than a year." Shanna said seriously, "Resigning early has proved to be a way to get rid of the curse." The best way."

Professor Lupine was silent. Looking at the nervous Shanna and the very calm Albert, he smiled and said, "I know there is a curse, but I think it is irresponsible for everyone to resign now."

"Perhaps, you think this matter is absurd, but have you ever heard about the situation of your previous Defense Against the Dark Arts professors?"

Albert helped Lupine get all the information about his ex.

"When we first entered school, it was Professor Brod who taught us Defense Against the Dark Arts. He knew about the curse of the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor as soon as he took office, and he mentioned to us in the first class that he planned to resign early. Things." Albert recalled: "Professor Broad is currently known to be a professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts who is still safe and sound."

"Professor Rowena Smith in the second year is a very good wizard. Later, he disappeared without warning. Everyone is looking for him everywhere. His whereabouts are still unknown. Many people say that he is dead."

"In the third year, Professor Quirinus Quirrell was said to be possessed by a mysterious person on the back of his head. He died in the dungeon at the end of the semester and turned into a pile of ashes. Potter was the last witness."

"Professor Gilderoy Lockhart, who is in the fourth year, is a liar. He has somehow become a fool. He is now being treated in St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Injuries. It is said that he will have to spend the rest of his life under the care of others. "

"I don't think the so-called curse is a rumor, let alone a coincidence. I never think that a coincidence will last for decades." Albert's meaning is actually very obvious.

"Actually, everyone sincerely hopes that you can stay and serve as our Defense Against the Dark Arts professor." Shanna bit her lower lip, and said nervously and excitedly: "But everyone also doesn't want you to have an accident because of this. I'm sorry, although this is very Excuse me, but there are some things I can't help..."

"No, please don't say that." Professor Lupine was not angry because of this, but just smiled and said to the two: "I will think about it carefully, you are right, this curse is indeed a bit... scary."

"Do you think Professor Lupine will resign early?"

After leaving the Defense Against the Dark Arts office, Shanna asked Albert curiously.

"No." Albert shook his head.

"Why, knowing that the curse is so terrible, isn't he worried about stepping into the path of his predecessors at all?" Shanna was very puzzled. If it were her, she would have resigned a long time ago.

"Perhaps, Professor Lupine has his own reasons for staying!"

Albert actually knew that what he said just now was useless, but he still said, "We have already done what we can do. How Professor Lupine will choose in the end is not something you and I can decide."

"Pity."

Shanna sighed, and seemed a little depressed.

"I've already figured out where to meet." Albert changed the subject.

"Oh, where?"

"Temporary confidentiality, please help me calculate how many people plan to join our club, and I will notify you when the time comes."

"No problem." Shanna thought of one more thing, and suggested: "It's best to fix the time at that time, Saturday or Sunday, pick a time when everyone is more free."

"Then Saturday night from [-] to [-] o'clock." Albert thought for a while and said, "It just so happens that the school library closes after eight o'clock."
