Vol 2 Chapter 526: Werewolf

Allen smiled at Lupin friendly: "Don't be so dismissive, call me Ellen, Professor Lupin. I brought TV with me when I went to Durmstrang and saw the latest news."
"Stop calling me a professor, I can't teach anymore, Alan. I don't know why you brought me here to meet you..." The boy in front of him was friendly, but Lupin did not relax his vigilance at all. I received Dumbledore’s warning and knew that although the other party was young, he was already a master of panic, so although Lupin did not control Occultism very well, he tried to use it to prevent the other party from exploring.
Allen did not directly answer Lupin’s question, but continued to ask: "Professor Lupin, I don’t know what you plan to do next?"
"I haven't thought about it, but what else can I do now, I guess I should go back to find Sirius." Lu Ping tried his best to think about the purpose of the other party's question, whether he wanted to take advantage of his current situation like a bereavement dog to subdue himself ?
Allen shook his head at Lupin. "I think we can be more honest with each other. I'm sorry that you are so wary of me now, Professor, but I think you have also seen Li in the Daily Prophet. Tar Skeet’s false news that you suspected that you had infected Sirius with lycanism. As far as I know of you, except for the secret activities of the Order of the Phoenix, you don’t plan to go back to Sirius."
"In that case, tell me frankly, Ellen, why did you bring me here to see you?" Lupin did not deny. Lupin was worried when he thought of the performance of the Harris family during the Goblet of Fire and the strength that is now showing. . And the other party asked Penello to take him to see these armed forces and those giants of his power as if they were visiting, absolutely purposeful, and the television station, which is also the property of the Harris family. Voldemort has returned. Coupled with Fudge's attitude and the changes in the positions of the school directors after this incident, Dumbledore himself was already alone, but Dumbledore asked the Order of the Phoenix not to do too much. And now if Harris wants to take the opportunity to do evil...
Allen took a few steps forward: "Professor Lupin, why do you think werewolves suffer such harm in wizarding society?"
Lupin frowned. It was obvious that the other party was not a person who would discriminate against werewolves from the point of view he knew. He asked what his purpose of being a werewolf was? He took a deep breath and tried to answer the question from the perspective of an onlooker: "Because the werewolves caused the deaths of many innocent victims?"
Allen shook his head and vetoed: "Every year, more victims die at the hands of dark wizards than wizards who die at the mouth of werewolves. Many of them are lying in the merchandise counter in Knock Down Alley and sold as products. But even Hagrid visits Knockout Alley from time to time. In fact, it is easier to kill someone with a spell than with your teeth and claws."
Lu Ping followed what Allen said: "Are you trying to talk about the cause of the infection?"
"Yes, that's right, ordinary wizards treat werewolves more discriminatory than they treat humanoid creatures such as kinsmen, fairies, and veils, because they are contagious." Allen said affirmatively.
"Although the potion of wolf poison is a great invention, there is no potion in the world that can hinder the transformation process after being completely infected. In addition, the potion of wolf poison itself needs to be taken regularly before the full moon to ensure that you will be wolves. Just become a sleepy ordinary wolf." This time Allen nodded, his tone calm, as if he was explaining a fact.
Lupin did not speak but only nodded in agreement with Ellen, and Ellen continued with his hands behind his back and said: "Ulimchi I don’t like her, but she said one thing that is good, since you were moved this time. Hands and feet, then there is really no way to guarantee that your medicine will not be manipulated next time. If it was the situation in the third grade, it was fine, but this year Dumbledore knew that Voldemort was resurrected and started a fight with Fudge. , In order to avoid the situation that Fudge finds the opportunity to insert the Ministry of Magic people into Hogwarts because he can’t find a professor willing to serve as a defense against the Dark Arts class, choosing to invite you back is indeed taking the safety of others wantonly. adventure."
Allen glanced at Lupin who was lost in thought, and continued: "You should be thankful, this time it seems to be from Fudge's side who used your potion, otherwise you will be replaced by Voldemort's. It should be in Azkaban. And this is not the first case. In fact, when Dumbledore asked you to come to Hogwarts in the early years, he was taking other people's lives or taking risks in the future. If not James? Potter’s final awakening is that Professor Snape who was tricked by him may have been killed by you in the Screaming Shack or be infected and transformed into a werewolf. What’s more ironic is that Professor Snape has to endure his life The cruel fact of being saved by the most hated person in China."
Lupin felt that he had been ruthlessly torn away from the scar healed by the students' performance, and the wound was exposed to the air again. He wanted to open his mouth to refute, but he could not find a reason. This made him feel desperate and annoyed. What are you trying to say? You asked me to come here to analyze for me how correct your suggestion of not letting me come to school at the time? You just admitted Voldemort's return. Why didn't you admit it on TV? What do you Harris want to do? The forces revealed in the Umbrella Company have grown so powerful, if you are willing to join forces with Dumbledore and the Order of the Phoenix..."
Allen put his hand on Lupin's shoulder to stop the questioning that sounded a bit agitated and self-defeating, and then handed him the refilled cup of black tea.
"Please take a sip of tea and calm down, Professor Lupin. I don't mean to disrespect you. Of course, meeting you is not to hurt you in front of you. I just want to honestly tell you some of my thoughts."
Allen waited for Lupin to stop being excited and suppressed his emotions before speaking, "Professor Lupin, what do you think is the reason why the development of the drug for lupus disease is so slow?"
"Stop asking me questions in a roundabout way, Alan Harris, just say something." Lupin is obviously tired of Alan's way of talking.
Allen bowed slightly to apologize. "Please forgive my bad habits, then let me talk about my thoughts. The Ministry of Magic’s policies on werewolves have always been chaotic and inefficient. In 1637, the Ministry of Magic established a set of werewolf management regulations. , Which requires the werewolves to sign to ensure that they will not attack anyone and lock themselves securely once a month. The result is not surprising, no one came to sign, because no one was ready to walk into the Ministry and admit I am a werewolf. The werewolf registry afterwards also faced this problem. The werewolf registry requires the werewolves to enter their names and personal details, but the information has been incomplete and unreliable for many years, because Many newly bitten werewolves conceal their situation to avoid the inevitable humiliation and exile. The management of werewolves has been vacillating between the two departments of the Beast and Humanoid Department of Magical Creatures Control, because none of them can be sure you should Is classified as a human or a beast. For a period of time, the werewolf registry and werewolf capture team were in the beast department, and the werewolf support service office was established in the humanoid department. No werewolves have entered the support service office for the same reason. Few people registered at the registration office, and the support service office was eventually closed and was not reactivated until my aunt took over."
Lupin nodded, which is why he didn't register.
Allen took a sip of tea, then continued, "In the second half of the twentieth century, several potions to alleviate the effects of deformation were finally invented, the most successful of which was the wolf poison we mentioned earlier. Potion. And what I want to say is this. Why is the history of the appearance of werewolves so long, and the progress of related drugs is so slow? It is because ordinary wizards lack understanding and research on you that have caused serious discrimination and Various rumors, even some authority figures, such as Professor Everett Picard’s statement in his book "Wolf’s Unruly: Why Are Werewolves Unworthy to Live" stated that werewolves will permanently lose their moral values It is obviously wrong."
Lu Ping clenched his fist tightly, "Yes, when he wrote this book, he only considered the performance of a few irrational werewolves and judged that all of us werewolves would be like this. His work even caused a lot of original kindness. People who gave up desperately became the bad guys he described."
"It is precisely in the absence of mutual cooperation that the related knowledge of werewolves, as well as related treatment methods and related potions, are progressing very slowly. In fact, in a human form, werewolves may be as good as any human being. Like Remus Lupin, you; or as bad as Fenrir Greyback, he will try to bite or maimed others when in human form, and for this reason he maintains nails as sharp as claws. The discrimination caused by the werewolves because of these ignorance has made you farther away from ordinary society, and ordinary wizards have deepened their discrimination and misunderstanding against you because of your self-exile avoidance, your father...
Please forgive me for telling the fact that he may not have told you. When you were four years old, your father Leo Lupin was called by the Ministry of Magic to study the authority of dark creatures and asked for help to understand and contain these. Threatening invitation to the rally, met Fenrir Greyback who was suspected of causing the death of Muggle children. When he was ridiculed by other members that he only managed Bogut’s expertise, your well-mannered father most of the time was irritated. In front of Fenrir Greyback, he yelled out'the only werewolf' The end of the game is death', so you were retaliated by Greyback a few days before your fifth birthday, and deliberately infected you with lupus. "
Allen waited for Lupin to digest some of the news that was a bit difficult for him to accept, and then told him in a firm tone: "My purpose is to invite you to join my plan to change this situation and fundamentally help you werewolves, even if not. Let those of you who have been transformed into werewolves turn back into humans, but as long as the situation that is incurable before being transformed into the infected period can be solved, or a longer-acting wolf poison potion can be developed, the reason for the serious discrimination against the werewolves It will be fundamentally solved. So before I say this goal, I need to analyze for you the reason for the current situation. Of course, even wizards born in Muggles will be discriminated against to a certain extent today, even if we accomplish this goal, It should only turn you into beings similar to vampires and veils, but at least you will be less discriminated against. If you are still willing to return to Hogwarts as a professor at that time, we Harris can also Convince those school managers for you."
Lu Ping thought about it for a moment, and said, "I don't plan to go back to be a professor, Allen, is your purpose is to want me to join the umbrella to be used for research and experiments? If you can promise me, you The purpose of this is really to help the werewolves. I think I am willing to be studied by you..."
"No, you are misunderstood, Professor Lu Ping. In fact, if you just want the experimental body, it will be a question of whether it is enough for you. In fact, our umbrella has already cooperated with the Department of Magical Creature Management and Control of the Ministry of Magic. , They will not send them to Azkaban when they capture the notorious werewolf criminals in the future, but will send them to the underground laboratory built under our house."
Allen waved his hand to stop Lupin’s imaginary self-sacrifice plan: "I mean, you are lucky among this group of unfortunate people. You have a few good friends who accept your identity sincerely, but even so, you It was only after the reunion with Sirius that life was better, and now that report, as I just speculated, I’m afraid you were going to self-exile again before. Trying to maintain a kind werewolf like you It shouldn’t be difficult to even have enough food and clothing. I want to provide you with some positions in my company. One is to provide you with a safe place and source of livelihood, and the other is to allow you to participate in this plan to save your race. The last thing I want to emphasize is that this is not a charity to you. Those of you who will not be infected again with lycanism are very suitable to help us carry out front-line work when the evil werewolves are being studied, so as to reduce the common staff’s suffering. The risk of infection, and if our umbrella successfully develops a better "Wolf's poison" or even a potion to solve the infection, although the direct benefits will not be too much, it is still very helpful to enhance the visibility of our company. I I am very happy to provide this fee to achieve our win-win situation."
Lupin had originally wanted to agree, but suddenly thought of a question: "I understand, Allen, but if you want to solve the infection problem, does it mean... you want to experiment with living people?"
Allen did not shy away from this question, and immediately nodded without hesitation: "Yes, and based on the extensive study of werewolf habits by Professor Marlow Vorfan, an authority on the study of werewolves in England in the nineteenth century, he found Almost all werewolves he had successfully interrogated were wizards before being bitten. At the same time, he learned from the werewolves that Muggles and wizards "taste" differently, and Muggles are more likely to die after being bitten. Therefore, the subjects of my infection experiment will be wizards, but like those evil werewolves, they will be some heinous dark wizards. Instead of letting them be kissed by a dementor, let them give back a little value to the society, use this This way to make up for the damage they have caused, I think, this is not against the principle of justice, is it? After all, if we are done, there will be no children who cannot go to school because of lupus, and some pain will be relieved in the process of growing up."
Lu Ping opened his mouth again but didn't know how to refute it. He knew that this behavior was wrong, but it had almost become a life-saving straw for all of their werewolves. If he missed this opportunity, it is estimated that no other wizard would help. They were willing and able to do this. In Lupin’s hesitation, Allen’s next sentence became the last straw that overwhelmed Lupin:
Remember our agreement in third grade, I Think it’s time for you to keep your promises."
Lupin finally reached out and shook Alan's hand and agreed to join. "I remember that my promise is not to violate morality, but for the future of the werewolves, although I cannot fully approve of this approach, I promised your invitation. In addition, thank you for being so patient in persuading me , Alan, I understand that whether I join or not will actually have no effect on your plan."
After achieving the goal, Allen turned and sat back in the chair, "You are welcome, Professor Lupin, you are welcome to join the umbrella company. By the way, you will get along well with your new boss, and she is also your student. Hermione Granger is currently the main person in charge of the umbrella company. Let her talk to you about the salary."
Lupin was a little surprised for a few seconds and then nodded: "Hermione is really an excellent witch. Not only does she perform well, but from the training class she manages, she knows that she has good management skills." , Lupin couldn’t help thinking of the members of the training class who followed her to cast the patron saint curse because of Hermione’s leadership in the class. Their patron saint curse seems to have been practiced for a long time, and all of them exude a solid light. The physical patron saint, although Lupin is grateful for them to support himself in the end, but thinking about their relationship with Harris and the power that they exposed in the umbrella company today is very worried ~ EbookFREE.me ~ thought of this At that point, Lupin hesitated and spoke again: "Alan...you and Dumbledore can't...I..."
Allen sighed and interrupted Lupin, who was still organizing the language. "Professor Lupin, Dumbledore believes too much in the so-called prophecy. This obviously puts me on the opposite side of him. It will be me who defeats Voldemort, not Harry, whom he has high hopes for. Dumbledore's control The desire is too strong, and he and I are actually a kind of person. We have tried to cooperate, but obviously the final result is not pleasant. To be honest, we Harris have no obligation to be as blind as you members of the Order of the Phoenix He obeyed his orders and sacrificed for his purpose, even if his purpose is good intentions, it is not worth it for me to do this. So I will not fight Fudge for his or his purpose now. I will accumulate my own. Power, and then defeat Voldemort yourself. After you go back, you can tell him everything that happened today, what you saw, and what you heard. Tell the Order of the Phoenix. I don’t have the slightest opinion on this. You will know that after we get along for a long time, I The difference from Dumbledore is that I like to tell my people what I do, not just like him deliberately not saying everything and letting you do it."
Lupin also sighed and nodded. Just when he said goodbye to Alan and was about to leave, he found that Alan did not respond but held his arm with his hand, "Professor Lupin...you are in trouble when you leave. Lead Sirius away at the entrance building. It seems that he was troubled by my aunt at the Ministry of Magic because of you. After being driven away by her, he inquired about you here, but was overpowered by the guards when he broke in. Don't worry. He was not injured, but I think you have to explain to him what happened, and then persuade him not to be so impulsive next time."
