Chapter 305 Remus John Lupin
Lupin, who had been pretending to sleep... or resting with his eyes closed, had to open his eyes.
If Fish continued to talk, Harry might regard him as an enemy.
At the same time, his heart trembled slightly. Harry and the others might not understand what Fish was saying, but Lupin himself knew that when he turned into a wolf without drinking the wolf poison potion, wasn't he as aggressive as the Acromantula?
"Well, cough!"
Lupin cleared his throat and reminded the little guys who were still whispering that he was awake.
Several people turned around and looked at Lupin. Fish lowered his ears, bent his legs slightly, and lowered his body.
"Hello, I'm Remus Lupin, nice to meet you."
Lupin didn't care about Fish's defensive movements, waved to them in a friendly manner, and introduced himself. His voice was hoarse and weak.
After introducing himself, Lupin moved his body slightly and adjusted his somewhat slumped sitting posture.
Because of what Fish had just said, Harry and the others did not reply. Instead, like Fish, they all stared at Lupin warily.
"I think you should be the Fish that Dumbledore and Professor McGonagall mentioned to me, right?"
Lupin was not angry at being treated coldly. He showed a tired smile on his tired face and continued to try to dispel Fish's vigilance.
"Do you know Minerva and Albus?"
(ˇˇ)
The kitten did not relax his vigilance because of the kindness shown by the other party... Tom Riddle in the diary is much friendlier than him.
"Of course... I was also their student, but now I will become their colleague."
Lupin shrugged his shoulders and continued to speak in his hoarse and weak voice, his eyelids drooping, as if he might fall asleep again at any time.
Because his appearance was really not threatening, Fish, who had been vigilant, also relaxed a little, but the kitten's eyes were still staring at Lupin's every move.
Although he didn't know what the strange aura on the other party was, the encounters with Voldemort for two consecutive years also made Firth regain some of the caution he had when he was a wild cat.
"Excuse me, are you the professor of our Defense Against the Dark Arts class this semester?"
At this time, Hermione, who was standing behind Firth, asked.
"Yes," Lupin nodded, "Don't worry, I'm neither a liar nor possessed by Voldemort."
Seeing Ginny's face change drastically, he quickly apologized: "Ah... Sorry, I didn't mean to mention that name."
He glanced at Hermione and Ron, who only showed a little fear, and Firth and Harry, who had no reaction at all, and showed an interested expression on his face.
"You... don't seem to be very afraid of the mysterious man," Lupin smiled with a curled mouth corner: "I guess you should be like me, Gryffindor, right?"
Firth needs no further explanation. He has destroyed Voldemort's plan for two consecutive years. The little cat has never suffered at the hands of the Dark Lord, and of course he would not be afraid of his own defeated opponent.
Before coming to Hogwarts, Harry and Hermione had never been exposed to the wizarding world, so their fear of Voldemort was not that deep.
And last semester, Harry had the honor of seeing Voldemort's...tragic side, and Ron listened to Harry's sharing, so their fear of Voldemort had been weakened a lot.
Only Ginny, who grew up listening to the legend of the Dark Lord, was controlled by Voldemort last year, so her performance was the most ordinary.
"Fish, he shouldn't be a bad guy."
Harry patted Fish's shoulder and spoke for Lupin.
In addition to Fish and Dumbledore, it was the first time he saw someone who could say Voldemort's name so casually, and Harry naturally had a good impression of Lupin.
"Is it meow?"

Fish swung his tail, stared at Lupin for a while, and finally retracted his guarded eyes.
In addition to Harry's support, it was also because after so long, Fish didn't feel any malice from the other party, and it was not a big deal to have a little dangerous aura.
Whether it was Fluffy or Ouroboros, they actually had similar auras, but their auras were relatively calmer than Lupin's, and as they knew each other for a longer time, that aura was further reduced.
Moreover, Lupin was the first human with this aura that Fish had ever seen, and even Quirrell didn't give him this feeling at the time, so Fish would pay special attention to him.
Although they temporarily recognized that the other party was not a bad person, Harry and the others didn't want to talk to Lupin.
First, what Fish said before more or less affected their perception of Lupin; second, the other party was an adult, and their future professor, so there was a natural generation gap, and under normal circumstances, no student would like to chat with the teacher; the last reason...
In less than two minutes, Lupin fell asleep against the window again.
"Do you think he can really teach us well?" Ron brought up the topic again, "I'm worried that he will faint while talking in class in the future."
"It should be okay..." Hermione said uncertainly, "Lockhart caused such a big mess last year, Dumbledore must find a reliable professor this year no matter what."
"The problem is... the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor at Hogwarts is cursed. It won't be easy for Dumbledore to find the right person, right?"
Harry shrugged his shoulders and said somewhat pessimistically.
After two years of schooling at Hogwarts, the teachers of this course changed twice. Harry became more and more convinced of the rumors about Voldemort's curse.
Then several people chatted enthusiastically on this topic, and then they talked about Sirius Black and the topic that they could go to Hogsmeade on the weekend this year.
Fish was still interested in hearing about Black's affairs, but he was not interested in Hogsmeade at all. He had already visited the entire village and was already very familiar with it.
So the kitten listened to the chatter of Harry and others casually, while nibbling on the snacks he had just bought.
After finishing the snacks, Fish looked at Lupine, who was sleeping soundly next to him, and then recalled his weak voice before, and a trace of sleepiness surged into his heart.
So Fish transformed directly into the tabby cat, then jumped into Hermione's arms with a slight jump, lay on her lap and began to fall asleep.
The train continued to move forward, during which Fish woke up and had another lunch, and then took Harry and the others to other carriages to visit, but the kitten soon got tired of it...
"Taking the train is so boring, meow!"
(●`△●)
Feishu, who returned to the booth, lay across his seat and complained loudly.
"This isn't any fun at all nya!"
Originally, he wanted to climb up from the window to the roof of the car to bask in the sun, but Hermione and the others blocked his waist and hugged his legs, preventing him from doing so.
"How long will it take to get here, Meow?!"
(〃`3〃)
Fish, who was so bored that he had already started playing with his own tail, calmed down for less than ten minutes and started muttering again.
"Well... we probably won't arrive at the station until evening."
Hermione comforted the kitten and said, "How about you continue to sleep on my lap?"
"Fish has had enough sleep! All I want to do now is bask in the sun on the roof of the car, meow!"
(●`Д●)
Although he could understand why Hermione and the others stopped him, in Fish's eyes, climbing on the roof of the car to bask in the sun was not a dangerous thing, so he still wanted to try.
However, before Fish could convince Hermione and the others, the sky outside suddenly became gloomy, and soon raindrops fell from the sky, getting heavier and heavier. The raindrops hit the glass of the window, making a crackling sound. sound.
Fish: "The sun is gone, meow!"
∑(●ΦДΦ●)
The kitten's ears and tail drooped in an instant, and she slumped on the chair with a disappointed look on her face, her mouth pouting.
"By the way, Fish, let me read you a story, okay?"
At this time, Hermione quickly took out a storybook she had specially prepared from her suitcase and waved to Fish.
"Meow~"
(=`=)
Fish immediately turned into a cat and jumped on Hermione's body. He stepped on her thighs with his four little paws a few times, and then lay down happily. His pair of triangular ears were straightened again and he listened quietly. A story started.
