"Wait! What are you doing out at this time? You can't even hold the wand with your right hand, right?"

As Lupine said this, he stood up with difficulty, holding his waist and abdomen, and wanted to go to the door to stop Sirius.

However, his injuries were much more serious than Sirius's. Just standing up holding on to the table caused a thin layer of sweat to form on his forehead.

Since both of their injuries were caused by black magic, ordinary healing spells would not be very effective. So before returning to the UK, they could only rely on repeated use of spells every day to remove the black magic that hindered recovery.

.

And it was precisely because of this that the two of them decided to avoid the limelight for the past two days. Otherwise, with Sirius's bad temper, he would have gone out to find someone to settle the score.

But after the memories just now, Sirius couldn't help but think back to the momentum he had when he was young... To be honest, when he thought about it, it was James who brought them all into Dumbledore's Order of the Phoenix.

My mood became increasingly depressed.

Occasionally, Sirius would think, if his good friend James was still alive, what would that guy do when faced with these things?

"Sit down! Remus..."

Before opening the door, Sirius put his hand on the doorknob and nodded slightly.

"From that time until now, every time James and I wanted to do something, you would advise us not to do it, but how many times did you really stop us?"

Lupine put his hands on the table and stared at Sirius's back through the darkness in the room, but he couldn't help but want to sigh.

"Yes, I really can't stop you two," he said with a wry smile, "but don't think about it, except for helping James catch up with Lily, there are several things we have done that have good intentions.

result?"

When they were in school, they did a lot of messy things together. After all, who hasn't been young? Even Lupine, who seemed to have always been sincere, had done stupid things in those years.

But compared to James and Sirius, who were born troublemakers, Lupine could definitely be regarded as a very sensible and cautious kind of student.

I remember that the four of them made a Marauder's Map at that time, which included almost all the rooms, corridors, stairs, and secret passages in Hogwarts Castle, which provided a complete guarantee for their various mischievous behaviors.

.

At that time, it was Lupine himself who suggested making such a Marauder's Map.

But in fact, the reason why he gave this proposal was entirely because he realized that he had never been able to persuade those two good buddies who were messing around all day long.

Therefore, he had no choice but to avoid punishment as much as possible from other angles.

And now...

"I know you are feeling panicked and want to go out and vent... But if you vent your anger even to your own death, when I need you to do something in the future, where should I go to find you? I'll look for you.

Grave?"

Lupine said these words with great momentum, especially the last sentence. It sounded as if he really had a hoe on his shoulder and he should find a cemetery to dig soil in the next second.

At the door, Sirius turned the doorknob several times, but each time he relaxed at the end. After a few times, he finally turned around suddenly, squinted his eyes and found Lupin's face in the darkness.

contour.

"Did you say this?" He asked with a puzzled look on his face, "How come this feeling seems familiar to me?"

To be honest, Lu Ping is actually not very good at persuading people.

If he hadn't been hanging out with James and Sirius, he would have become a very introverted person in the end if he had been somewhat withdrawn due to the werewolf problem since he was a child.

But even though he is much more cheerful now than when he was a child, his eloquence can only be said to be normal.

It would be difficult for him to think of such harsh and harsh words that penetrated Sirius's heart just now - Sirius, who was very familiar with Lupin, also knew this very well.

Therefore, when the latter heard Lu Ping's words of dissuasion, he quickly noticed a hint of awkwardness.

"Oh, it was the Makana boy who asked you to say that, right?"

With a thought, Sirius suddenly remembered the phone call that Maka had made to convince him in the secret passage under the Whomping Willow.

As for Lupine, seeing that Sirius immediately recognized the subtlety of it, he could only shrug his shoulders.

"Yes, it was Maka who asked me to write it down," he said unusually calmly. "Obviously, Maka also knows that you are always impulsive, so he tried to tell me a few words on how to persuade you."

"'A few words'?" Sirius shook his head speechlessly, "Let's forget it! The same words may not work if someone else says them!"

After saying that, without further ado, he opened the door and walked out.

"This..." Lu Ping looked at the door that was closed again, and said with some helplessness, "But what's the point of going out now?"

…

Of course Sirius had his own reasons.

If he had to ask "why", then the reason why he went out even though he was injured was actually Lupine's more serious injury.

When they were exploring a few days ago, the two of them who were walking separately encountered the attackers. At first, they fought independently, running to the meeting place while fighting, so that they could find them as soon as possible even if they had no time to use apparation.

helper.

But who knew that both of them would actually encounter enemies!

When both of them fought and retreated to the agreed place, they found that they were surrounded by enemies pursuing them from both sides.

At that time, in order to find a way to escape, Sirius' hand was hit by black magic, and Lupine's abdomen was even opened, and his intestines almost came out.

At that moment, if Lupine hadn't been in front, it would have been Sirius who was seriously injured now.

Therefore, when the two of them brought up the past and Harry's parents, Sirius, who was already impulsive, finally couldn't bear it anymore.

Even if it was just for the sake of Lupine, the only good friend left, he had to find his place first - this was almost the same mood as when he escaped from Azkaban in his early years and rushed all the way to Hogwarts to hunt down the betrayers.

What a difference.

If before, he just had the mentality of simply performing tasks, now he really wants to make a fuss.

It was not long since nightfall, and perhaps because there was no moon in the sky, the streets seemed particularly dark.

Sirius, who had turned into a big black dog after going out, was walking quickly along the street silently, constantly looking around.

Since the group of unidentified attackers have been very active at night recently, many forces have had their eyes pulled out one by one, making many wizards avoid them.

To be honest, the abilities of those attackers cannot be underestimated. Whenever they attack, it must be a form of black magic. As for those black magics, there are many types, but most of them are things Sirius has never seen before.

And this is actually very strange.

Sirius was originally from the Black family in the British wizarding world, and the family's inheritance history is not much shorter than those of the ancient wizarding families! As far as black magic is concerned, in the era when the ban of the International Federation of Wizards was not introduced, many of their ancestors were also

There are dabblers.

Otherwise, his younger brother Regulus Black would not have been the first wizard to discover the secret of Voldemort's Horcruxes.

When it comes to dark magic, even Sirius himself knows a lot.

However, now he discovered that those mysterious short wizards who were mostly under Haierbo could actually use all kinds of black magic, and they were the kind that even he had never seen in the classics at home!

Otherwise, many modern black magic and curses were created under the influence of certain theories of Haierbo! It seems that this kind of unofficial history record that is almost legendary may not be nonsense.

Therefore, although Sirius wanted to vent the frustration in his heart, he didn't want to do it without even using his brain.

"Remus had a good saying," he said secretly in his mind as he walked, "I can't even hold the wand with my right hand, so what else can I do?"

A wizard who has injured his dominant hand will have his actual combat strength reduced by at least 30% unless he pays attention to sufficient practice with both hands.

Moreover, the key now is not here - you know, he, Sirius, was originally responsible for investigation, and there is only one person at the moment.

As for the other party, there were four unknown enemies who besieged him and Lu Ping that night. If we also count the enemies who attacked other forces at the same time that day...

Therefore, when encountering more than one enemy, his best choice is to hide quietly and make no sound.

So, since the way to find trouble with the attackers is almost gone, wouldn't he have no choice but to try his luck at the Heberhe Magic Academy?

It's a pity that this option is obviously a deeper pit than before. If you go there to try your luck, it's good enough if you don't encounter bad luck!

Thinking about it like this, Sirius suddenly stopped walking, and his dog eyes gradually narrowed.

It's no coincidence that this guy got along with Harry's father. Like James Potter, he is also the type who has few good ideas but a lot of bad ones.

To put it nicely, he can disrupt a calm situation, make a chaotic situation even more chaotic, and then bring out some unexpected surprises from it;

But to put it bluntly, he and James are actually two troublemakers worse than the Weasley brothers!

And what do you think the troublemaker will be like when he grows up...

Sirius buried his head in thought for a while, and then his dog eyes suddenly turned, and then two inexplicable expressions suddenly lit up.

"Yes, let's do it!"

If I were to ask Maka to comment, it would only be in one sentence - this is a boss who does not take things too seriously! (To be continued)
