Chapter 315 End of the school year
In front of the staff lounge, Ron waited quietly at the door, and waved excitedly at Harry and Lupin when he saw them.
"Harry, Professor Lupin, you are finally here!"
"Where is Hermione?" Harry asked strangely, and he looked around and saw Hermione's figure around a corner. She was with Professor McGonagall, whispering something.
After a while, they came over with a chat and laugh, and walked into the staff lounge together. The place was re-tied, and old black wooden chairs in the narrow room were piled up on the side near the fireplace, and replaced by a long table.
Frivey used a method to hang the colorful ribbons down, and Felix turned a small white ball that floated to the ceiling, emitting a gentle light, illuminating the room warm and bright. Hagrid carried a large bucket of honey wine, and Dumbledore and Professor McGonagall smiled and turned the ornaments on the table into pocket animals.
Harry forgot the sadness of parting for a while and started eating happily. With Hagrid's recommendation, he also tasted a small cup of wine made by the house elf. When Professor McGonagall turned his blame gaze, Hagrid consciously took the cup away: "You are still young, Harry..."
In addition to the hot dishes of various flavors and sweet pudding, there were a few new dishes on the table. Ron forked a meat ball with sauce and asked curiously: "What is this? I haven't seen it before," he sent the fork into his mouth, his eyes lit up, "Harry, Hermione, you must try this!"
Harry forked up a yellow square and tasted sour and sweet, "It's a pineapple," he said affirmatively.
“What’s the name of this dish?”
A house elf wearing a chef's hat said respectfully: "This is a sweet and sour meat of pineapple, which was recently developed. Mr. Hayp gave Yun Bo a recipe on Christmas, which contains many magical dishes."
Hermione hesitated, "Are you a house elf in the kitchen? Why not come here and go..."
The house-elf Yun Bo took a few steps back, "We will eat in the kitchen," he bowed, "The dishes are served, please use them slowly." He disappeared with a bang.
"You scared him, Hermione," Ron said.
At this time, Professor McGonagall began to ask Lupin about his plans after leaving the school. Lupin told him about the recruitment information he saw in the newspaper, "Except for ancient magical texts, I almost met the requirements in other aspects. I am ready to submit a resume."
Professor McGonagall smiled and said enthusiastically: "Which family is it? Maybe I know you, and I can write a letter of recommendation for you."
Lupin said gently: "A new company, called the Future World, is not yet clear about it-"
"Future World?" Felix repeated, looking at Lupin with a strange look, making Lupin feel a little puzzled. After a while, Felix raised his cup: "You will definitely succeed, Lupin."
"Thanks."
"bite!"
The two of them clinked together.
...
The next morning, Harry got up from the bed early and hurriedly put on his clothes. Ron slept very heavily and was talking in his sleep, "This is delicious, Harry..."
He put on a robe for himself and walked out of the bedroom a few steps. Because he came out too early, it disturbed the fat lady's good dream.
"Child, it's the end of the term." She said weakly, spinning away.
"I'm not confused, there's something important." Harry explained, and he walked down the spiral stairs and came out of the auditorium gate. He saw Professor Lupin's back carrying a box from a distance.
He caught up with breathlessness, "Teacher, professor, I'll see you off!"
They walked down the grass, faced the golden morning light, and came to the main entrance of Hogwarts. They talked like real friends and spoke freely. When they parted, Harry felt even more reluctant.
Lupin smiled and said, "I left quietly because I didn't want to increase my feelings of separation, and we will meet again soon."
"You mean, Sirius's funeral?"
Lupin nodded, "A respectable person..." He waved his hand and left freely.
Harry watched him disappear at the end of the road before returning to the castle. The next time passed quickly, and he devoted all his energy to the study of ancient magic, and even the phantom shift was not at the moment. Not Hermione, there were already members of the club who learned this magic - Percy Weasley, Geoffrey, and Penelo followed closely.
"They are all seventh grade students, and the advantages are too obvious," Ron said.
"Cedric has also mastered it first." Harry said sensitively: "I'm always a little bit short."
"Brother, he is two grades taller than you, why do you want to compete with him?" Ron asked in confusion.
Harry didn't say anything, and he felt his thoughts were a little bored, but he couldn't help but compete in his heart.
In a blink of an eye, it was the last day before the holiday. On this day, the school announced the test results. Harry, Ron and Hermione passed each course.
Harry got an excellent job in the Dark Magic Defense, and at the same time he got good job in the ancient magic text, spells and magic creature protection classes. Ron took a look and said, "I'm only a little bit worse in the Dark Magic Defense, everything else is the same."
He looked at Hermione's transcript in a daze again, and found the only good one from the table filled with excellent results: "Dark Magic Defense...I remember the Boggart you encountered during the exam again."
Hermione encountered a cunning Boggart while practicing the exam. It turned into a professor who told her that all the exams failed and that the grades had to be reinstateed for this, which took her a lot of time to calm down, and the exam had to be interrupted for ten minutes.
Hermione glanced at Ron and reminded him, "I learned to move the phantom."
Ron frowned and murmured in a low voice: "I have succeeded twice, too..."
"Half of your eyebrows fell off at one time, and the corners of your clothes were broken at one time - yes, if you count them as success."
"I should go find Fred and George, their ass will be swollen by mom..."
When they appeared in the auditorium, seeing that Professor Hayp was already surrounded by excited students, Percy announced loudly: "All staff are excellent!"
Jeffrey reminded him: "You forgot Marcus."
"Okay, there's another good one...I try to ignore this."
Felix was surrounded in the center and it took him a long time to get out, but this was a happy trouble. The seventh-grade graduates were still celebrating warmly, and even Snape did not deduct points, which was usually unimaginable.
"Severus, I need a stable source of wolf poison."
"Give it to that werewolf?" Snape said disgustedly. Since the night of the Battle of the Bridge, he has never said Lupin's name again in his chat with Felix, and he has always used 'that werewolf' to refer to it.
"You don't look like nosy people," he said.
Felix sighed: "He will be a good employee."
"That company is yours?" said Snape. Instead of immediately refusing, he thought seriously, "Do you still accept investment?"
"If it were someone else, I would refuse, but you are different, Severus."
"Give me a title, you must be taller than that werewolf. I will interview him in person." Snape pinched his fingers and showed a gloomy smile.
"Your expression looks terrible, and the little wizard's fork has fallen."
Snape glanced at it and said disdainfully: "A stupid guy, eating pie in my class, I asked him to handle two large buckets of long-horned toad livers."
