A Certain Hogwarts Magician Professor

Harry woke up from his bed in the school hospital and opened his eyes to the white ceiling.

"Here, Harry." He heard Hermione speak, and reached for them - his glasses.

Harry's vision became clear when he put on his glasses, and he saw Hermione and Ron sitting beside him. Madam Pomfrey was mixing the potion on the small table by the bed, and Professor Lupin leaned over to check on his status.

Across the aisle, Professor Hepp sat leisurely on the bed opposite, flipping through a copy of the Daily Prophet.

"professor--"

"Drink it first, boy," Madam Pomfrey said, and Harry struggled. "I think I'm fine!"

"Oh, is it?" she said absently. "It doesn't prevent you from drinking all the potions, hurry up, or I'll give you a pair of life and death water."

Harry drank all the liquid in the glass in one breath. He looked at Felix and said eagerly, "Professor Hepp, did I last for two minutes?"

Felix put down the newspaper, smiled and said, "Your last shot was really good. I was planning to squeeze the time."

It wasn't until two or three seconds later that Harry heard what the professor meant, and he showed a surprised expression, "So, I, I..."

"Well," Felix winked at him, "you can think about your wishes slowly, don't be too hard, or I will refuse."

Harry blurted out, "I want to know about my father, and Sirius Black!" He glanced at Professor Lupin, who was looking at himself in astonishment, and whispered, "Thank you for coming. I, Professor Lupin."

Professor Lupin said softly: "Nothing, I happen to be fine tonight. Harry, about your father—"

Madam Pomfrey brought over a blanket, "It's a little cold at night, cover this." She turned to look at the two professors, and said impatiently, "The patient needs to rest, so keep your story short."

Professor Lupin changed his mind and said, "Harry, I know you have some questions. You can come to me this weekend. I'll leave you alone, Professor Hepp, shall we?"

Felix stood up, "Of course."

The two walked out of the office together, and when they turned a corridor, Lupin stopped: "Professor Haipu, we need to talk."

"About Potter?"

"Yeah, about Harry," Lupin said calmly. "It's obvious that you treat him differently. But don't you think some of your practices are not suitable for a third-year kid?"

"You mean?" Felix looked at him curiously.

"Summer special training, please forgive me, they were in the same car with me at the time, and I heard some. From Harry's description, he fainted a dozen times during your special training..."

Felix said casually: "Probably more. If I'm recording the data correctly, it should be 32 times."

Lupin looked at him seriously. "Don't you realize the seriousness of the problem? He's only thirteen!"

"What does age say? Will Blake let him go because he's young and wait until he's an adult?" Felix sneered, "If you're worried about his health, it's not necessary, I'll do it well prepared.”

Lupin suppressed the anger in his heart, "Harry will be safe at school. Besides, not everything can be evaded with 'prepare'. Have you considered his mental capacity, you? What were you doing when you were thirteen?"

Felix looked at him blankly and said softly, "In my opinion, your reasons are all excuses, at least, I won't pin my hopes on others and pretend that nothing happened. "

Lupin calmed down, hesitated, and said, "I don't want my words to show some kind of prejudice, but you're from Slytherin, and you're a student of Snape..."

"What are you trying to say, Lupin?" Felix knocked on the edge of the window in front of him. "I'm in a hurry."

Lupin took a deep breath, "I'm more concerned about Harry's safety than anyone else, and your influence on him is too great. Snape and his father were mortal enemies at school, and I was worried about Snape's Attitude affects you."

Felix looked out of the window, "Severus still can't control me, but I really don't plan to change my teaching philosophy. Professor Lupin, you are too lenient, what does Harry have to do with you? We'll stop here. Separate."

He took a few steps and counted silently in his heart, one, two, three...

"I know Harry's father! We're good friends, far beyond the word, and I'm grateful for him," Lupin said suddenly.

Felix, who had his back to him, twitched his lips, and he looked back at Lupin, "You hope to convince me with vague language?"

"...Harry's father, James Potter, he was the seed of genius in the school, he learned everything, was a top-notch person, and Sirius...I mean Blake." Lupin and him Standing side by side, looking out the window, it was completely dark. "I was on the fringes, and it was James who accepted me."

"James and that man were young, flamboyant, and very popular with their classmates. James later joined the Quidditch team. But on the other hand, they also became a target for Slytherin."

Felix asked with interest: "Can you elaborate?"

Lupin thought for a while and chose the words carefully, "Slytherin at that time... may not be the same as what you have come into contact with, the theory of the mysterious man is very popular, and many students join the Death Eaters team as soon as they graduate. Among them. We all privately call them Death Eater reservists."

Felix nodded and said, "I did hear something."

"Jaime and that man, Sirius Black, who was a good guy at the time," Lupin said sternly. "They quickly became a Gryffindor flag, and James was carefree and liked to play pranks, but he Jealous of hatred, he has always defended his classmates in the academy, and Blake, he strongly disliked the rotten family he came from, and also had no sympathy for Slytherin. He even cut off relations with his family when he was 16 years old. Will betray James." He shook his head and didn't continue.

And Felix already understood what he didn't express, and he said with emotion: "A boy full of justice has become a dragon, how can you not make people feel sad?"

Lupin continued: "Jaime and Blake offended a lot of people, of course, some people did hate them for being a prankster, but they didn't care about it, and Peter and I were a part of it. Looking back now, I would both It's incredible how stupid I was at the time."

"You're not just here to tell me about your experiences when you were young?"

"It's about to be said that James and Black had an old enemy at the time, which is now the potions professor, Severus Snape. They fought openly and secretly, and even for some reason, this kind of fighting reached the end of the last few years. White-hot."

"Because of Harry's mother?" Felix interrupted him. Judging from the information he inquired about, it seems that there are mostly emotional entanglements. "Excuse me, I found some information privately."

Lupin stared at him, looking at him with a complicated expression, and said after a long while: "You are a true Slytherin, Professor Hepp. I don't mean to belittle, but you know some inside stories but keep your mouth shut. …”

Felix said briefly: "I have limited knowledge and can't get a glimpse of the whole picture of the year, but it can be used to distinguish some doubts. Please continue, Professor Lupin..."

Lupin said speechlessly: "It's far more complicated than that. I'm one of the people who know the situation best, Professor Hepp, and I hope our conversation doesn't leak out."

"At least I won't say it out." His eyes slid across the corner of the corridor, revealing a playful smile.

But what if someone was here?

"Harry's mother, Lily Evans, she and Snape were good friends before they started school, and James and Blake hit it off, and they were in the same car for the first year, but this time they met. Not pleasant. After entering school, James complained to Lily, reminding her that she should not be friends with the Slytherin people, they are a bunch of scumbags, but Lily ignored him."

"It didn't take long for me to become friends with James and the others, and I brought in Peter. The four of us are inseparable, a bit like Harry and his two best friends." He smiled and said, it should be the best in his life. of a memory.

"As I said before, James and Blake quickly emerged and gained a large number of fans. As for their relationship with Snape, it can only be said that it is somewhat similar to the current Harry and Malfoy. Snape brings together James Too many things that Mum doesn't like: being sloppy, studying dark magic, being a Slytherin, and pestering his classmates."

"Why entanglement? I remember you said that Snape and Harry's mother were good friends," Felix asked.

"Yes, but you can't expect an eleven or twelve year old boy to analyze problems calmly, not to mention James and Sirius..." He paused, "Both of them are impulsive characters."

"The conflict between James and Snape quickly escalated, James cast a curse on Snape, Snape also developed various spells to fight back, and Lily has been defending Snape, watching James' various dislike; despise."

"It's been like this for several years, and Jaime's heart is budding," he smiled. "He suddenly has a crush on Lily, who has always been against him, and tries to strike up a conversation with her, but how could Lily care about him? James is very Quickly change himself, he becomes less arrogant, does not always show off himself, in short shows a mature side..."

"His fight with Snape was also moved to a dark place, out of sight of Lily. We didn't feel it was wrong, Snape had already shown a great talent for potions at that time, and was deeply impressed by Professor Slughorn. Love, gave him a lot of small stoves. We all agreed that if he graduated, it would definitely increase the strength of the Death Eaters."

"In the middle of this, Lily and Snape broke off because of something more nasty, and James took advantage of it and cared for her. Forgive me for using the word, but it means the same thing."

"Almost a year later, James and Lily got together in seventh grade, and his relationship with Snape became more complicated - personality rifts, philosophical battles, and ultimately emotional issues."

"If I had to say, Snape hated James the most, and probably Blake next, who was acting as an undercover agent for You-Know-Who and leaking the addresses of the Harrys. God, I don't know how to tell. Harry, James trusted him so much and made him Harry's godfather..." Lupin said with red eyes.

"Professor Haipu," Lupin said sincerely, looking at him, "we don't have much contact, but I can see that you are a serious and responsible professor, and some of my students like you, even though they still Not old enough to take your electives."

"I'm telling you these stories in the hope that you won't be influenced by Snape. Please also believe me, my feelings for Harry are sincere."

Felix was silent for a moment, "Professor Lupin, you think too much. Harry is my favorite student, and I also look forward to his future."

Lupin left, and Felix turned his eyes to the corner, sighed softly, and left the other side.

In the corner of the corridor, Harry sat silently on the ground, Ron and Hermione looked at him with mixed expressions.

This episode is not easy to unpack, so it's very late today, I'm sorry.
