The students lined up and hugged Professor Lupine and a werewolf one by one.
The seemingly simple action, in addition to great courage, also represents silent trust.
They whispered to Professor Lu Ping and spoke words from the bottom of their hearts. Many students were moved and cried bitterly.
Only Ron and the Slytherins stood there motionless, watching all this as if it had nothing to do with them.
"It's touching, but what does this mean?" Lucius said softly, "I didn't see anything except a group of fools who were not afraid of being killed by werewolves."
"You just said you need proof, and now we'll show you the proof!" Harry looked at Lucius and shouted, "What more do you want, Professor Lupine is obviously innocent, he didn't attack us at all, He is safe."
"Tsk tsk tsk, what a silly boy, if I were you, I wouldn't think so. Werewolves can't be trusted." Lucius looked at Harry contemptuously, and said with a sneer, "He didn't bite you now, probably Because he's full, or... "
"Maybe it's because there are too many people here, which affects his appetite." Snape followed Lucius and said grimly, "We all know that, like real wolves, werewolves have unique eating habits."
He looked at Lupine maliciously, his small dark eyes gleaming.
"Severus..." Dumbledore reminded gently.
"I know you trust him, Headmaster!" Snape didn't look at Dumbledore, his eyes were fixed on Lupine, and he said in a tone of great hatred, "But he failed your trust, although he took the medicine tonight. He took the Wolfsbane potion, but because of his werewolf nature, he still couldn't help attacking the students, as Weasley can attest to."
"I can attest that this werewolf tried to attack me..."
"Ron, do you know what you're talking about!" Harry looked at Ron angrily, clenched his fists tightly, his body was shaking constantly because of too much force.
"I'm just telling the truth, Harry!" Ron didn't meet Harry's eyes, turned his head aside, and continued in a dull, monotonous voice, "Werewolves can't be trusted. It could hurt us, we can't take that risk!"
"Unlike other werewolves, Professor Lupine is innocent!" Harry shouted, Ron's words made him feel cold all over his body, and he gasped heavily, "We proved it, we just hugged he... ”
"It's just a group of brave fools!" Lucius sneered, "You may not know that a werewolf riot is happening outside the school tonight. You may not realize the seriousness of this matter. But, as a parent of a student, I absolutely Disapprove of a werewolf continuing to teach at Hogwarts. What do you think, Minister?"
"Well, I think what you said makes sense. We must be cautious when dealing with werewolves, especially in the current situation, we can't take any risks." Fudge said, "I'm sorry, Lupine, we have to take you Walk!"
Fudge's words were like a final verdict. Professor Lupine trembled all over, and the expression on Harry's face was extremely frustrated. He couldn't believe this decision.
"You can't take Professor Lupine away, he didn't attack anyone!" Harry shouted, and he hurriedly stood in front of Professor Lupine.
Behind him, other little wizards gradually surrounded him.
"I'm sorry, children, I know you all believe in Lupine!" Fudge said hesitantly, "But he is a werewolf after all, and some people in the school don't believe him, and some people even accuse him of assaulting students, we can't ignore Any accusation!"
As he spoke, he turned and looked at Ron standing in the corner.
"Mr. Weasley?" Fudge asked uncertainly.
"Yes, this werewolf attacked me!" Ron replied in a low voice, "I'm formally filing a complaint with the Ministry of Magic."
"You're lying, Professor Lupine is innocent!" Like the last straw that broke the camel's back, Harry's voice suddenly dropped, he murmured unwillingly, and tears flowed out uncontrollably.
"I said it just now, I'm just telling the truth!"
"Very well, Mr. Weasley! Regarding your accusation, the official acceptance document of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement will be sent tomorrow. We must hurry back now, this evening is really bad!" Fudge continued, " There is still a werewolf riot in the Ministry waiting for me to deal with, but fortunately we caught a werewolf."
"No!" Harry hurriedly stopped Fudge, trying to make a last effort.
Fudge took a step back, looking awkwardly at Harry and the other little wizards standing in front of Lupine.
"Get out of the way, Potter! You've had enough trouble!" Snape yelled. "We're saving you from this werewolf!"
"I'm fine, I don't need your rescue!" Harry gasped heavily, not to be outdone, he responded loudly, "I don't know what happened to Ron tonight, but I can prove that Professor Lupine is Innocent, he has a hundred chances to hurt me this year! I have been alone with him many times and learned from him how to resist dementors. If he wanted to bite me or kill me, why would he then Don't do it!"
"Don't ask me about the mentality of a werewolf." Snape pulled out his wand and said sharply, "I repeat, get out of the way, Potter!"
Harry didn't speak, he stood in front of Professor Lupine with open arms, showing his determination with practical actions.
Ivan, Hermione, and the other little wizards also took a step forward, looking at Snape resolutely.
"Okay, Snape!" Fudge said in a panic, "Don't blame them, these children have experienced very terrible things today, the werewolf Greyback just attacked Hogsmeade, and now they find that they are the most trusted Professor, who is also a werewolf. These things must have terrified them... …”
"Wait a minute, Minister!" Ivan said hurriedly, "I think Ron's accusation is invalid, it may be because..."
"Ivan, I want to talk to you alone about what you said!" Dumbledore said suddenly, interrupting Ivan.
Ivan blinked his eyes and looked at Dumbledore in surprise. He obviously didn't say anything, what did the other party want to talk to him about!
Or did he already know that Ron was being controlled? !
