Hearing Lupin's words, Wentworth's cold sweat soaked his clothes almost instantly. For a moment, Wentworth almost thought his biggest secret had been exposed.

Wentworth looked at Lupin blankly, and didn't even hear what Lupin said after that.

"Wentworth, what's the matter with you?"

Although Lupin didn't notice Wentworth's anomaly, Cedric found that his little friend, whom he got along with day and night, was unnatural for a moment, so he hurriedly asked.

At this time, Wentworth, who was gradually reacting, also knew that he was over-hearted. Even Dumbledore hadn't discovered his secret. Wentworth didn't believe Lupin could discover it.

So Wentworth forced a smile and said:

"It's nothing, I just didn't expect that I'm still so talented!"

Although Cedric thought Wentworth was a little strange just now, but when he heard Wentworth say this, Cedric nodded in agreement:

"Of course, your talent is beyond doubt."

Even Lupin opened his mouth and said:

"I heard about you from Dumbledore. As a wizard with a strong gift for prophecy, your soul strength is higher than other wizards, which is not surprising."

Hearing Lupin say this, Wentworth breathed a sigh of relief and put the doubts deep in his heart behind him.

Afterwards, Lupin began to teach Wentworth and Cedric about the Curse Stopping Charm.

At noon, Wentworth suggested that the three of them go to Hogsmeade Village together, find a bar or restaurant for a good meal, and treat themselves.

But this proposal was firmly rejected by Lupin with a smile.

"I'm sorry Wentworth, I promised Dumbledore, you can only follow me here to learn magic, and you can't go anywhere. You know, in Hogsmeade, there are only Hogwarts in the third year and above. Only students can go there.”

"Wait here for me for a while, and I'll buy you some food. Although it may not be rich enough, at least you can eat enough. How can the teacher ask the students to pay for the first time we meet?"

Lupin said with a smile, and walked out of the screaming shack.

"Mr. Lupin, he shouldn't be rich."

After Lupin left, Cedric leaned over to Wentworth and said.

Wentworth nodded and said with some emotion:

"Yeah, it's not just not rich, it's just down and out!"

Cedric said with some puzzlement:

"It doesn't make sense. Every wizard who graduates from Hogwarts should be able to find a decent and decent job in the wizarding world. Of course, except for those who like freedom."

Hearing Cedric's doubts, Wentworth gave him a strange look and said:

"What, have you forgotten? His werewolf status! What was your reaction when you first heard that he was a werewolf? That's why he was poor."

Hearing Wentworth's words, Cedric was stunned for a while, and after a while, Cedric said with a wry smile:

"Well, I did forget his werewolf identity."

Just after a morning of study, Lupin left a deep impression on Cedric. Maybe Lupin is not the top wizard in the current magic world, but for Wentworth and Cedric, Lupin's magic only taught them both, but it was enough.

Moreover, when Lupin explained the spell, he was very careful and explained the simple things in simple terms. Although the mantra was just a simple spell, being able to explain it so clearly showed that Lupin was an excellent teacher.

While the two were talking, Lupin had returned to the screaming shack, still carrying a paper bag in his hand.

Opening it up, there are several sandwiches neatly placed inside.

"I'm sorry, I can only afford it..."

Before Lupin finished speaking, Wentworth took the lead, reached out and took a sandwich and put it in his mouth, and then took out another sandwich and stuffed it into Cedric's mouth.

"Thank you, Mr. Lupin, I'm starving! Mmmm! This sandwich is delicious!"

Wentworth mumbled, filling his mouth with food.

And Cedric was stunned for a moment, and then he took a big mouthful of food. While eating, he gave Lupin a thumbs up.

Seeing this scene, Lupin was stunned at first, but then chuckled, he also picked up a sandwich and ate it. The three of them chatted while eating the sandwich.

"Mr. Lupin, why can't we even go to Hogsmeade Village? There shouldn't be any danger there, right? Besides, isn't it accompanied by you?"

Wentworth took a bite of the sandwich and asked casually.

Hearing Wentworth's question, Lupin explained:

"Because of the Hogwarts rules, only third-year and above Hogwarts students can go."

Having said this, Lupin paused, then continued:

"Of course, I have done things that violated the school rules before. The main reason is that there is some unrest in the British magic world now, and Hogsmeade village is full of wizards, mixed with fish and dragons, and it is very close to Hogwarts, A lot of wizards have been hiding in here lately."

Hearing Lupin's words, Wentworth and Cedric stayed at the same time.

"Isn't it fair?"

"Hiding in?"

Both of them noticed Lupin's words at the same time, which seemed to mean that something happened that they didn't know.

Seeing this, Lupin thought for a moment and then explained:

"That's right, because there is a rumor circulating in the outside world now~www.NovelMTL.com~ Not long ago, people from the Ministry of Magic found several boxes at the entrance of the Ministry of Magic, and only after opening did they find that these were cast The box with the Traceless Stretch Charm is full of wizard corpses."

Speaking of which, Lupin inadvertently glanced at Wentworth.

It's just that Wentworth and Cedric were all immersed in shock and didn't notice.

Wentworth said in disbelief:

"Impossible? If such a thing really happened, why would the Daily Prophet not report it at all?"

Lupin explained:

"Of course the Ministry of Magic would not allow such a thing to appear in the Daily Prophet. After all, this is a kind of provocation and humiliation for the Ministry of Magic. Fudge would not allow such a thing to appear in the in the newspaper."

And Cedric, who was beside him, went on to say:

"My father didn't reveal such news to me in the letter!"

And Lupin continued to explain patiently:

"I think this may be because the Ministry of Magic has issued a gag order! Besides, you are at Hogwarts now, so you don't have to worry about your safety, so your father doesn't need to tell you about it."

Hearing Lupin's explanation, Cedric nodded slowly, with worry written all over his face, but this worry was not for himself, but for his father who was working in the Ministry of Magic.

"Mr. Lupin, do you know what kind of people died?"

Wentworth asked curiously.

Lupin looked into Wentworth's eyes and said slowly:

"It is said that those wizard hunters who attacked Dumbledore and you not long ago!"

"Nani?!"

Wentworth looked shocked.
