Hogwarts: Please graduate soon

The sudden silence and the attention of the crowd made Wayne a little nervous. He stepped back subconsciously and hid behind Hermione.

For a moment, he was a little afraid to enter the hall.

Hermione also looked confused and looked back at the boy: "What did you do again?"

"I'm innocent!" Anyway, no matter what happened, shouting injustice is wrong.

At this time, the twins crossed the Slytherin table and ran to Wayne, patting their chests with one hand and bowing.

"Welcome our Mr. Smile!"

"Oh oh oh oh!"

The hall suddenly burst into warm cheers and applause, and several professors in the guest seats couldn't help laughing and applauding.

Even Snape didn't have a gloomy face anymore.

Wayne rubbed his eyes to make sure he was not wrong.

But this man's smile was different from other professors. Instead, it was full of teasing and playfulness.

This made Wayne feel even worse.

He pulled Fred up and whispered, "What's going on? Did you two do this?"

"Are you still pretending to be confused?" Fred laughed and patted Wayne's shoulder, "Everyone knows it, just now!"

Wayne was numb, "I really don't know, tell me quickly, or I'll tell Percy that you knocked him out last time."

Seeing that he didn't seem to be acting, George raised his eyebrows, "Everyone is congratulating you on winning the award."

"What award?"

"The Most Charming Smile Award of "Witch Weekly", which was just announced today "Damn, didn't you read the magazine this morning?"

Wayne: "......."

Amidst the applause, Wayne fled to the Hufflepuff table. Cedric came over immediately. Before he could speak, Wayne urged: "Do you have "Wizard Weekly"? Let me see it."

"I have it here!" A girl said, handing the magazine in her bag to Wayne, and kept looking at him in the middle, and finally asked: "Wayne, can you smile?"

"Go away, I'm annoyed."

After taking the magazine, Wayne opened the cover and his eyes went dark.

On the title page, there was a photo of him, with a colorful title below.

"Winner of the Most Charming Smile Award of the Year - Hufflepuff's Genius Wizard Wayne Lawrence"

In the photo, Wayne smiled brightly at the camera and made a "yeah" gesture with his hands.

Wayne clearly remembered this photo. When he asked Colin to borrow a camera, the other party offered to exchange a photo for the right to use the camera.

At that time, he agreed without hesitation. After taking the photo, Colin asked him if he wanted to learn from Lockhart and participate in the competition.

Wayne thought Colin was joking, and also joked that if he participated, he would definitely win the championship.

So this guy was serious?

He looked at the Gryffindor table. Colin was talking excitedly with his classmates. It was probably related to the photo and the award of Wizard Weekly.

This can't be blamed on Colin. People asked for his opinion, but he agreed to it because he thought it was a joke.

Who should be blamed then?

Wayne suddenly looked at Snape with a very unfriendly look, which made the old bat who was laughing at his joke feel a little uneasy.

What are you looking at me for? I didn't take this photo.

But Wayne had already identified Snape as the culprit in his heart.

If Snape hadn't become the person Neville feared the most, he wouldn't have had to go to Colin to borrow a camera, and Colin wouldn't have taken his photos to participate in the competition.

Nothing today would have happened.

Old bat, just wait!

...

In the next few days, wherever Wayne went, he would be greeted with everyone's attention.

Back in the lounge, Susan and Hannah kept pestering him, asking him to smile again. They were also going to take a few photos to continue participating in the competition for him next year.

This is the result of Wayne casting the Confusion Charm on him.

If the power of the Confusion Charm is increased, he will probably become invisible, and even Hermione and the others will not be able to find him.

After learning the news, Dumbledore deliberately created an encounter with Wayne, and then showed a surprised expression.

"Isn't this our Mr. Smile?"

"Witch Weekly is really discerning. You deserve this award more than Lockhart."

Dumbledore was very happy at this time. The depression of Wayne occupying his office and changing the password was swept away. He felt that he could eat two servings of spicy chicken nuggets in one breath.

Well, boiled fish is not bad either.

"Professor..." Wayne smiled and gritted his teeth: "I feel that my magic level has improved recently, and I want to discuss it with you."

"I haven't been feeling well recently. If you need me, I think Severus is a good opponent."

Dumbledore said gently and walked away quickly.

His old bones can't stand the tossing, so it's better to let Snape take the class.

.......

Finally, it was Wednesday night. With the arrival of Professor Lupin's open class, the students' attention was diverted.

After the dinner, more than half of the students stayed.

Most of the Slytherin students left, including Malfoy. They looked down on Lupin's teaching, and many junior students left because they couldn't learn anything even if they stayed here. It's better to play card games with friends at this time.

The four long tables in the auditorium were also moved to the corners, and the students stood in the middle. Wayne was surrounded by beauties of all sizes, attracting many people's attention.

After a while, Professor Lupin appeared with his iconic worn-out box, and everyone spontaneously applauded, which made him a little embarrassed.

"Thank you, thank you everyone."

He put the box on the guest of honor seat and said, "Today's class is not a formal class, nor is it a formal class."There are specific goals and requirements, so everyone can relax a little."

"Learning the Patronus Charm and having a positive and active mood is a very important part."

The auditorium with hundreds of people was very quiet. Only Lupin's voice could be heard. The little wizards were listening carefully.

"Before class, I still want to remind you again that the Patronus Charm is a very advanced and difficult spell to learn."

"So even if you can't learn it, don't be discouraged or doubt yourself. Most people need a lot of time to fully release it."

"The more discouraged you are, the lower the possibility of learning."

"When did you master it?" A little wizard couldn't help asking curiously.

Lupin smiled slightly, showing a nostalgic look: "I had a group of good friends at the time. With their help, I mastered the Patronus in the fifth grade. "

Suddenly, he thought of something, and his expression became gloomy again.

"Okay, I'll teach you the spell first." Lupin changed the subject, and a row of letters floated out of his wand and floated in the air.

"The spell is very simple, Expecto-Patronum, just like other spells, you must be clear, firm, and focus all your attention when reciting the spell."

"At the same time, the most important thing is that you need a strong positive emotional power to release the spell. Try to think about those happy and beautiful memories. Let's try it first!"

"Wait, Mr. Lawrence, you don't need it!" Seeing that Wayne also took out his wand, Lupin hurriedly stopped him.

"You come to be my assistant, how about adding 20 points to Hufflepuff? "

Wayne readily agreed.

Such a blatant PY transaction, the little wizards from other colleges had no objection. With Wayne's guidance, they would make money anyway.

"Let's chant together, Expecto-Patronum!"

"Expecto-Patronum!"

As the spell fell, soon, wisps of silver-white mist floated out from the wands of some little wizards, gradually gathered into a ball, covering the ceiling.

"Very good, this is the first step to success." Lupin shuttled among the little wizards: "Students who didn't succeed, try a few more times, maybe your emotions just now were not strong enough, try to replace them with happier memories. "

Several more students succeeded, and the silver-white mist on the roof became more and more.

Harry shook his head unsatisfied. He did summon the mist. He could do it on Saturday when Wayne gave them extra lessons.

But it was still a long way from condensing into a solid.

"Professor, I did exactly what you said, but why didn't it succeed? There's not even any mist." Seamus asked in confusion.

Lupin came to his side, and a group of little wizards followed him.

"Seamus, what were you thinking when you cast the spell?"

Seamus said shyly: "Well... I think one day in the future I can blow up the elementary school I attended."

Lupin smiled awkwardly but politely: "Mr. Finnigan, I asked you to recall your happiest time, not to dream."

The classmates laughed happily.

Lupin said loudly: "Everyone must pay attention. The release of the Patronus must be real and the memory of what happened, not a false fantasy. It is impossible to succeed!"

Everyone nodded and started practicing again.

Cedric recalled the moment when he and other team members won the championship two years ago, and an inexplicable force rose out of thin air.

"Expecto Patronus!"

He shouted loudly, and the silver-white silk thread, which was several times thicker than before, flew out from the tip of the staff, constantly entangled, as if brewing something.

The students around him noticed his movements and stopped their movements, watching nervously, wanting to know what animal Cedric's patronus was.

Unfortunately, in the end, when all the threads became a ball, they still failed.

"Your thinking was scattered at the end." Wayne said on the side: "You must concentrate highly, especially when you are about to succeed, you can't slack off at all."

"Then I'll try again." Cedric said, and was about to cast the spell again, but was stopped by Wayne.

"It's no use trying again tonight. Using the same memory, your G, no, the excitement will be greatly reduced, and the effect will not be as obvious as the first time."

"What should I do then?" Cedric was worried: "I can't always find the happiest thing every time I cast a spell, right?"

"So what do you think is the difficulty of this magic?" Wayne rolled his eyes: "You must remember the feeling of joy after the first success, and then imitate that joy every time you cast a spell in the future, and the success rate will be greatly increased."

Lupin also heard what Wayne said, and took two steps back in embarrassment.

He felt that Wayne's explanation was much more detailed and clear than his.

"How did you succeed the first time?" Cedric asked humbly.

"Me?" Wayne pointed at himself, "After I got the right wand, I couldn't help but cast the Patronus Charm."

A group of little wizards: "..."

"Can it be more perverted?" Cedric complained, he asked unnecessary questions.

But in order to learn this magic, he still resisted the urge to roll his eyes and continued: "Then what was in your mind when you cast a spell last time, that time on the Quidditch field?"

The corners of Wayne's mouth twitched.

"My experience is really not suitable for you. For me, I have been very happy since I was a child, so I just need to keep a normal mind to succeed in casting a spell."

Cedric was completely defeated.

Not far away, George looked at his twin brother thoughtfully: "Fred, what do you think is our happiest memory? Let's see if we canCan you think of the same thing?"

Wayne also came over curiously, wanting to hear what they said.

Three seconds later, the two said in unison: "The time when Ron was thrown down the stairs!"

After saying that, they laughed at the same time.

"Is Ron really your brother?" Wayne looked at the two who were laughing speechlessly.

"Of course, it's genuine!"

"The real thing!"

Fred raised his wand excitedly, "Wayne, you don't have a brother, so you can't understand the joy of successfully tricking him... Expecto Patronus!"

George also shouted out, and the two of them were full of smiles. The silver silk thread finally formed two... giant monkeys?

Wayne's face became even weirder.

He clearly remembered that the patronus of the twins was the magpie, so how did it suddenly become this thing?

"Someone succeeded! ”

“It’s the Weasley twins!”

“To be honest, I’m not surprised that they succeeded. Have you ever seen them without a smile on their faces?” Gryffindor Seeker Angelina exclaimed.

“That makes sense. The last time they were punished by Professor Snape to clean the toilet, they did it with a smile!”

The two big monkeys in the sky pounded their chests and howled at the sky, but they didn’t make any sound.

“Why can your Patronus roar?” Fred looked at Wayne.

“Wait until your Patronus is more skilled.” Wayne said, “Then you can use the Patronus to pass messages, which is very convenient.”

The twins’ eyes lit up, and Professor Lupin brought his box, “Very good, if you use the Patronus in the OWLs exam, you will definitely get a lot of extra points.”

“Do you want to try advanced training now? "

"What is that?" George asked curiously.

Lupin patted the box: "Inside is the special assistant that Headmaster Dumbledore invited for you, a Dementor."

Hiss...

The students nearby shivered and stepped back, looking at the box in horror, with an urge to escape from the auditorium.

"Don't be nervous, everyone." Lupin comforted hurriedly: "This Dementor has been guaranteed not to make any resistance, and the harm is much less."

"But it is also a Dementor." Norman quickly took off Toby's coat and put it on himself: "I started to feel cold when I heard their names."

"Do you want to try it?" George looked at Fred.

"Of course." Fred grinned, "Professor, we are ready. "

Swish!

Everyone ran further, squeezed into the corner, and stared at the box in Lupin's hand nervously.

The twins' patronus brooches were also handed over to Percy for safekeeping.

"Remember the feeling just now, you can do it." Lupin reminded again and unlocked the lock on the box.

DementorsThe inherent chill began to spread, and the temperature in the hall dropped sharply.

The lid of the box was pushed open, and the tattered black robes came out. The twins felt that all their happiness was taken away. They gritted their teeth, raised their wands and chanted loudly.

"Expecto Patronus!"

"Expecto Patronus!"

The silver-white mist became thinner and could not condense into a shape. The Dementor completely got out of the box and floated in the air.

Suddenly, it smelled a familiar smell, turned its head, and saw the handsome boy holding Astoria in his arms.

Dementor: "..."

Swoosh!

It got back into the box at almost the fastest speed and put the lid on itself.

Silence for a long time.

Lupin held his forehead, "Wayne...why don't you go out first?"

Wayne: "...".
