Days to grind friendship at Hogwarts

Sirius saw a little more expectation on everyone's faces and said with satisfaction: "As far as I know, you don't seem to have learned anything really useful in the Defense Against the Dark Arts classes in the past few years."

This is indeed the case. Quirrell's lessons are almost just reading them exactly from the textbook. As for Lockhart, I'm afraid he is not as good as Quirrell.

In the past three years, the only one who can be said to be fair is Patricia, who is in the first grade. However, because she focuses most of her energy on the ritual of resurrecting Morgana, the teaching content can only be regarded as barely effective.

After hearing what he said, many people couldn't help but nodded after thinking for a moment.

Only a few die-hard Lockhart fans were still muttering something in a low voice.

"Okay." Professor Lupine said gently, "As Professor Black said, practice makes true knowledge, so our first lesson will start with practice. So, please stand up now and join us.

"

All the students left the classroom under the leadership of the professor. This was the first time in history.

Just as I walked around the corner of the stairs, I saw Filch walking towards me. When I saw Sirius and Lupin at the front of the team, he obviously stopped walking and his face became a little gloomy.

Sirius greeted him with a smile, but Filch didn't respond. He just quickened his pace and left like a plague.

The change in his expression caught everyone's eyes and immediately caused a burst of whispers.

"It seems that Filch is afraid of our two new professors, doesn't he?" Marietta pulled Qiu's sleeves and whispered.

"Absolutely." Glenn explained, "When Professor Black and the others were still in school, they were better at playing pranks than the Weasley twins, which made Filch suffer a lot. Now that they are professors, if they try to play tricks on him again, he will

We can't use school rules and confinement to deal with them."

As we all know, if you want to choose the most annoying character among students in the entire Hogwarts, there is no doubt that Filch deserves the first place, and there is no possibility of tying. After all, Professor Snape, who ranks second, and the entire

Slytherin is a pretty big fan group.

Glenn's words quickly spread throughout the team, and when they arrived outside the door of the staff lounge, they looked at the two professors' eyes with a little more respect.

The staff lounge is an empty rectangular room with wooden panels on the four walls and filled with old mismatched chairs.

At the very back of the room, close to the wall, there is a huge old-fashioned wardrobe.

Lupine called everyone to the cabinet and asked them to form a semicircle.

Perhaps because someone suddenly approached nearby, the wardrobe shook violently without warning, making a "bang bang" sound on the wall.

"Don't worry." Seeing several girls subconsciously ducking back, Lupine explained, "This semester, Professor Black and I plan to introduce you to some dark magical creatures to help you deal with them better in the future."

"There is a Boggart inside the cabinet. We found it when we were packing our luggage last night. We originally planned to show it to the third grade students." Sirius added, "However, after discussion, we decided that it is necessary for you to experience it for yourself.

Ichiban.”

As he spoke, he glanced at Glenn quietly, with a slight smirk on his lips.

Obviously, he also wanted to know what Glenn, who was surrounded by so many auras, was really afraid of.

Glenn soon discovered his little idea and showed a helpless expression.

However, it was also his first time to face a Boggart in person, and he was quite interested in what it would become in front of him.

"Boggarts like dark and closed spaces," Lupine explained, "wardrobes, the space under the bed, the cupboard under the sink - once I met one living in a grandfather clock."

"So, can anyone tell us what kind of dark magical creature a Boggart is and what characteristics it has?" Sirius asked cooperatively.

"So, Miss Zhang, can you please give me a brief introduction?"

As a little witch from a wizarding family, Qiu naturally heard her parents mention what a Boggart was.

"The Boggart is a special shape-shifting creature," she said. "It can see what people fear most and then transform into it."

"Very good." Professor Lupine praised, "As long as I let it out, it will immediately try to become what each of us fears the most."

"Because of this, we don't need to be afraid of it at all at the moment. With so many people gathered together, it can easily get confused and not know what it will become." Sirius continued to explain tacitly.

.

The two of them took turns speaking, and introduced them to the spells and wand movements for dealing with Boggarts.

"Of course, just relying on spells and movements is not enough to deal with them." Lupine also looked at Glenn with a smile, "I think that before letting all of you try to face Boggarts, you should first

Ask a classmate to give an example."

Seeing him looking towards her, Glenn was speechless and nodded resignedly.

These two people must have discussed it long ago.

"Then..." Sirius pretended to pick around, and finally pointed at Glenn, "Mr. Ollivander, please come to the cabinet."

Feeling someone approaching him, the Boggart's reaction became more and more intense, and the cabinet shook more and more obviously.

"Well, Glenn, before I open the cabinet door, I need to ask you a question first." Professor Lupine said, "What do you think you are most afraid of in this world?"

"Emmmm..." Glenn pondered for a long time, then shook his head blankly and said, "I don't know either."

Lu Ping was obviously stunned. He didn't expect to get such an answer.

"In that case," Sirius quickly answered, "we might as well just open the cabinet door and let Glenn deal with it by himself."

"That's fine."

Lupine nodded helplessly, took out his wand, and pointed it at the keyhole on the cabinet door.

"Get ready! Three-two-one!"

He waved his wand lightly, and the door lock flicked, making a soft "click" sound.

Immediately afterwards, the shaking of the cabinet stopped, and under everyone's expectant eyes, the cabinet door slowly opened.

To everyone's surprise, the Boggart did not leave the cabinet after completing the transformation.

Sirius frowned and waved his wand again, controlling the cabinet door to open completely.

Everyone who saw the scene in the cabinet, including Glenn himself, was instantly petrified.

In the cabinet was a slender figure, wearing a standard Hogwarts girls' uniform...
