Marvel: I'm Hermione, from Hogwarts!

Page 110

"Bring the body to Lockhart."

She said to Tom Cruise.

"Hogwarts is about to start. You continue to look after him. I will be back tomorrow."

……

Platform nine and three-quarters.

Hermione boarded the Hogwarts Express and expertly found an empty carriage to sit down.

After a while, the carriage door was gently pushed open.

A man came in, looking tired and shabby.

"Excuse me, is there anyone here?"

The man asked politely, his voice gentle.

Hermione looked up, closed the book, and shook her head: "No."

The man walked into the carriage and put a somewhat worn suitcase on the luggage rack.

He sat across from Hermione and his eyes fell on her.

"What year are you in? Which college?"

The man seemed to be looking for something to talk about.

Hermione smiled slightly: "Third year, Gryffindor."

Without waiting for the man to continue asking questions, she continued:

"You're the new Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, Ares... ah no, Professor Remus Lupin, right?"

The man was stunned for a moment, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

"Yes, how did you know?"

Hermione pointed at the students coming and going outside the carriage.

"After Professor Lockhart resigned, Headmaster Dumbledore told me the name of the new professor, and..."

"And the whole car was full of students, and I was the only adult, so it was easy to guess, right?" Lupin suddenly realized and continued for her.

"No, it's because your name is on the box," said Hermione.

Lu Ping: "..."

After an awkward silence, Lupin asked, "What's your name?"

"Hermione Granger."

There was a glimmer of surprise in Lupin's eyes.

"So you are Miss Granger. Headmaster Dumbledore mentioned you in his letter. He said you were my teaching assistant."

Hermione's eyes widened.

"Teaching assistant? No, I only agreed to be one year!"

Lupin shrugged and smiled helplessly.

"I don't know about that. Dumbledore did say that in his letter."

Hermione gritted her teeth and muttered softly:

"That old man..."

The two chatted for a while.

Lupin yawned and rubbed his sleepy eyes.

"I'm sorry, Miss Granger, I need to get some sleep. I didn't get enough rest last night."

Hermione closed the book and nodded in understanding.

Of course she knew that what Lupin called "staying up late" was actually transforming into a werewolf on a full moon night.

But she didn't expose it. She just watched silently as Lupin covered himself with his somewhat worn coat and curled up in his seat.

Soon, a light snoring sound was heard.

Hermione looked out the window at the scenery passing by, her thoughts drifting.

Dumbledore actually asked her to be an assistant again?

This old man really thinks she is a free tool!

Hermione secretly complained in her heart and decided that when she returned to Hogwarts, she would have a good "talk" with Dumbledore.

"Clang-"

The carriage door was suddenly opened, interrupting Hermione's thoughts.

Harry and Ron poked their heads in.

"Hermione, you are here!"

Ron plopped down next to Hermione, yelling excitedly.

"I told you, you must have arrived a long time ago!"

"Harry and I will look for you in each carriage!"

Harry also sat down and said with a smile:

"Ron, I guess you must be reading a book in some corner. How are you doing during the summer vacation?"

Hermione smiled, but before she could reply she noticed that Lupin seemed to be awakened by the noise of their voices.

He opened his eyes slightly, his gaze stayed on Harry for a few seconds, and then quickly closed them again.

There was a subtle hint of complex emotions in his eyes.

The train was running smoothly and the scenery outside the window was rapidly receding.

Hermione was leaning against the window, reading a book and eating an apple.

Suddenly, the train shook violently and then slowly stopped.

The lights went out inexplicably, and the entire train was plunged into darkness.

The sudden change stunned everyone, and exclamations continued to be heard from every carriage.

"What's going on?" Ron spoke first, and it could be heard that he was a little scared.

Harry was also a little confused and felt vaguely uneasy.

A chill gradually spread, the surrounding temperature dropped rapidly, and thick frost condensed on the car windows.

A blurry black shadow appeared at the door of the carriage and slowly floated in like a ghost.

Chapter 140 Dementors

The black shadow exuded a suffocating chill, as if it could devour all light. Just one glance at it made people feel cold in their hearts, and fear surged like a tide.

Harry was closest to the door and took the brunt of the attack.

He was facing the blurry face of the shadow.

The shadow opened its mouth and put its mouth against Harry's, as if sucking something.

Harry suddenly felt his consciousness blurred, and his heart was swallowed by darkness and despair.

He wanted to call for help, but no sound came out.

Lupin stood up suddenly and seemed about to attack.

But Hermione was quicker than him.

"Call the gods to protect you!"

Hermione waved her wand and a dazzling silver light burst out from the tip of the wand.

A silver-white sea otter shadow rushed towards the black shadow with a warm glow.

The dark shadow seemed to have met its nemesis. It let out a painful scream and immediately let go of Harry.

It turned around and tried to escape.

But how could Hermione let it happen?

The phantom of the sea otter instantly turned into a curtain of light, completely wrapping up the black shadow and forming a huge ball of light.

In the light ball, the black shadow rushed left and right frantically, but was unable to break through the restraints of the light curtain.

It roared in despair like a trapped beast.

The ball of light gradually shrank under Hermione's control.

From the initial diameter of two meters, to one meter, and then to the size of a basketball...

The black shadow was constantly compressed in the light ball, and its struggle became weaker and weaker.

"boom!"

There was a muffled sound.

The light ball was compressed to the limit and the black shadow could no longer bear it. It exploded on the spot and dissipated into countless black gas.

Calm returned to the carriage.

【Magical Creatures】

[Dark Creatures: Dementors (Collected)]

[The whole body is covered in a black robe, without facial features, and can absorb people's happy memories. If they are in the state of "Dementor's Kiss" for a long time, their souls will be sucked away. 】

The Dementors had no blood, but instead, the black mist emitted after the explosion on the spot was absorbed by the magic book and successfully burned.

Lupin supported the unconscious Harry and let him lie down slowly on the chair. After confirming that Harry was fine, he looked up at Hermione with surprise in his eyes.

Lupin thought back to the first time he successfully cast the Patronus Charm.

With the help of James and Sirius, he struggled hard and barely summoned a blurry silver shadow.

Thinking of this, Lupin couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.

Compared to Hermione's transformed sea otter, the difference is like heaven and earth.

He even began to doubt whether the Patronus Charm he had learned back then was a fake.

"Cough cough..."

Lupin coughed twice, breaking the silence in the carriage.

"Miss Granger, your Patronus Charm is… simply amazing."

"This is the first time I've seen someone use the Patronus Charm to trap and kill a Dementor."

Normally, the Patronus will only drive the Dementors away, and it is almost impossible to kill them.

Even he saw for the first time a Dementor being forced to death by a Patronus.

"Excuse me, how did you do that just now?"
