All the little wizards held their breath, and their eyes were all focused on Ivan who was hugged tightly by the werewolf.
Looking at their expressions, they seemed to suspect that this thin boy might be bitten off by the ferocious werewolf in front of him at any time.
But this kind of thing didn't happen, Ivan's expression was calm, and he didn't look scared at all.
On the contrary, the werewolf hugged by him was crying in a low voice, and everyone saw that terrifying wolf's face was almost soaked with tears.
After Ivan, Harry also stepped forward to hug Professor Lupine.
His movements are a bit clumsy, but the hug time is much longer than Ivan's.
"Professor, whether you are a werewolf or not, I trust you." Harry wiped away his tears vigorously, and choked up, "You are my father's best friend, and you are also the best Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher I have ever met! "
Hearing Harry's words, Professor Lupine trembled.
If Ivan reminded him of Sirius Black, Harry was exactly like his father, James Potter.
Looking at Harry's face, Lupine even had time to go back to his student days.
There was silence in the office, and no one spoke.
The actions of Ivan and Harry seemed to serve as a demonstration, and the little wizards were all thinking about the possibility of Lupine's safety.
Ivan and Harry, everyone is very familiar with both of them.
At Hogwarts, two people are almost equally famous and well known.
In fact, compared to the savior Harry, many little wizards have a better impression of Ivan, and they seem to have a natural sense of trust in this boy.
Although from the perspective of reputation, Harry is even better.
But because of the victory over Voldemort, many little wizards will inexplicably think of the evil dark wizard when they see Harry. Coupled with Harry's character and Parseltongue talent, so far, there are still rumors in the school that he will be the third generation of Dark Lord.
As for Ivan, although his parents are all ordinary Muggles.
But since entering school, this boy has shown to everyone his noble self-confidence, excellent learning ability, easy-to-reach character, unparalleled courage, and innate qualities of a king and leader.
Although these things sound illusory, they are the reasons why everyone trusts Ivan. With an unprecedented magic newspaper, handsome appearance, and powerful magic power, Aiwen left a deep impression on all the students, especially the girls.
Since going into the Chamber of Secrets to defeat the basilisk last semester, driving out the dementors on the Quidditch pitch a few months ago, and just resisting the werewolves in Hogsmeade and other events.
Aiwen is currently extremely popular, and he is almost the focus of discussion among students in the school.
Although everyone didn't say it, many young wizards and even senior students secretly admired Aiwen in their hearts.
If Harry was the only one who trusted Professor Lupine, many would still be skeptical.
But since even Ivan said that the terrifying werewolf in front of him is safe, he told everyone that Lupine had taken the wolfsbane potion, and he also proved it by hugging him, almost all the little wizards began to think, should they believe it? Alvin.
The discussion gradually sounded, and then stopped immediately.
Everyone was surprised to see Hermione walking out of the crowd. Her eyes were filled with tears, and she looked at Ivan, Harry, and Professor Lupine tearfully, as if she was moved by their actions.
She walked step by step towards Professor Lupine in werewolf form. It could be seen that the little girl was still a little scared, but her gaze was extremely firm.
She stepped forward, stood on tiptoe and hugged Professor Lupine.
"We all trust you, Professor!" Hermione choked up in a low voice.
Hearing Hermione's words, Lupine trembled uncontrollably all over.
Hermione's actions moved him more than Ivan and Harry's. After all, he didn't have much contact with Hermione in normal times, and Lupine never thought that the other party would do this.
"You're right, Hermione!" Ivan looked at the other little wizards and asked softly, "Who else trusts this werewolf, and who else wants to come and hug him?"
No one spoke, and no one acted.
Under Aiwen's scorching gaze, everyone lowered their heads.
Many people want to hug Professor Lupine in the past like they did. But as soon as he saw his terrifying appearance, he began to hesitate again.
Knowing is one thing, actually doing it is another, and not everyone has that kind of courage.
After a short silence, an unexpected person stood out from the crowd.
It was Neville, he came out of the crowd trembling, his face was very red, and he cowered close to Professor Lupine.
When Snape passed by, the other party gave him a hard look, and Neville almost fell because of fear.
But he survived, and Neville still remembers that in the first Defense Against the Dark Arts class of the third year, when facing the Boggart that can only become the most feared existence in one's heart, it was Professor Lupine gave him courage.
Although he had always lacked courage, he remembered how it felt.
The brave are fearless! ! !
Neville walked slowly to Professor Lupine and hugged him silently.
He didn't say anything, his flushed round face was full of pride, hugging was just a simple gesture, but doing it in front of the whole school, the object of the hug was still a werewolf, which required extremely strong courage, and Not everyone can do it.
Aiwen can imagine how many difficulties Neville has overcome in his heart.
Compared with myself, Harry, and Hermione, this simple hug was extremely meaningful to Neville and Professor Lupine.
Seeing Neville's actions, the little wizards were in a commotion again.
Different from Ivan, Harry, and Hermione who have always been at the center of the discussion, in everyone's impression, Neville is so ordinary and inconspicuous. He seems to have nothing to do with all the limelight. Forgetfulness and cowardice are his synonymous with.
No one ever thought that he would have the courage to do such a thing.
Neville was panting heavily. In the eyes of others, he just simply hugged Professor Lupine, but for him, it was indeed an unprecedented challenge.
Aiwen hurried over to help Neville over, his legs seemed a little weak.
"I did it, Ivan!" Neville said in a trembling voice, "I'm not afraid, I hugged Professor Lupine, I believe he will not hurt everyone."
Everything was like a dream, even Neville himself couldn't believe it, he would actually rush out to hug Professor Lupine, a werewolf!
"That's right, you are the best!" Ivan helped Neville to a chair next to him.
To be honest, he really didn't expect that after he said those words, Neville would be the first to stand up.
He had to admit that the forgetful and ordinary boy beside him did possess courage unparalleled by others.
Unlike Harry, Neville's character is much more restrained and delicate. He did not reveal the courage hidden in his heart at any time, but as a true Gryffindor, Neville was definitely the most trustworthy companion at critical moments.
