Genius in a Second to Remember Love or Go? The web provides you with wonderful novels to read.

Just as Elwyn, Harry, Hermione, and Hagrid were discussing Azkaban, the door to the hall opened again.

It was Professor Trelawney. She glided towards them as if she were standing on wheels.

She wore a green dress decorated with small metal discs, making her look even more like a shiny, oversized dragonfly.

"Good afternoon, everyone!" Professor Trelawney said, in her dimmest, farthest voice. "I have been watching my crystal ball from the tower, and to my surprise, I have seen myself abandoning my own lunch to join you at your dinner. Who am I to refuse the urging of fate? I came out of my tower immediately, and I sincerely ask for your forgiveness for my tardiness … "

No one spoke, and everyone looked at her in surprise.

Elwyn noticed that Professor Meg's mouth was pressed tightly together, and her face became even darker.

Professor Trelawney did not sit down immediately. She walked half a circle around the table, putting invisible pressure on everyone. She stood behind Hermione, Ron, Harry, and Elwyn for a long time, her big eyes looking around the table.

Suddenly, she let out a low scream!

"What's wrong, Professor?" the first-year student in front of her asked uneasily.

"Dear child, you will never believe it, but I saw it …" Her eyes were fixed on Elwyn, as if he were already dead.

"Sit down, West Bill!" Professor Meg suddenly interrupted her. "Those owls and howling letters are enough to upset people. You don't need to add extra pressure to everyone!"

"I can't sit down, Mileva!" Professor Trelawney seemed to have just noticed Professor Meg, and she said in a panicked tone, "I can't do that. If I sit down, there will be thirteen people at the table! There is nothing more ominous than thirteen! Never forget, if thirteen people eat together, the first one to stand up after the meal will be the first to die! "

"We're willing to take the risk, Cy Bill," said Professor Meg impatiently. "Sit down, for the sake of the Christmas holidays!"

Professor Trelawney hesitated. Then she sat down next to Elwyn. Elwyn had a bad feeling. He could feel that Professor Trelawney had deliberately chosen this position. She was looking at him with her big watery eyes, as if she had something to say to him.

There was no need to guess to know that this was definitely not something good!

Based on Elwyn's understanding of her, what she was going to tell him would definitely be ominous and ominous.

Elwyn tried his best not to look at her, focusing all his attention on the plate in front of him. The situation was troublesome enough. Before tonight's operation, he didn't want to be cursed by Trelawney again.

"Darling!"

"Would you like some tripe, Cy Bill?"

Professor Meg interrupted her again. She put a big spoon into the nearest big covered bowl.

Professor Trelawney ignored Professor Meg. She glanced at Elwyn, then looked around and asked softly, "I don't see my dear principal and Professor Lupin. Where are they?"

"Obviously, everyone knows what happened in the castle last night! They also know where Albus and Lupin are now! " Professor Meg raised his eyebrows and said impatiently, "Even if no one tells you, you must know, don't you?"

"Of course I know!" Professor Trelawney looked at Professor Meg coldly. "But people don't show off that they know everything. I often behave as if I don't have the Celestial Eye, so that others don't feel nervous."

"That explains a lot," Professor Meg said bitterly. "Your so-called Celestial Eye …"

"If you must know, Mileva!" Professor Trelawney's voice suddenly became less vague. "As early as two months ago, I had already seen the end of poor Professor Lupin from the crystal ball. He stood there alone, in that place full of fear and despair."

Obviously, she was referring to the Azkaban Wizard Prison.

That place was full of Dementors, and only there was fear and despair everywhere. Hearing Professor Trelawney's words, everyone gasped. This seemed to foreshadow the tragic end of Professor Lupin. He would spend the rest of his life in Azkaban.

Except for Snape, who still had a sneer on his face, everyone's face turned pale.

Harry stared at Professor Trelawney for a while. It was rare that he didn't argue with her. Maybe he thought it was not worth it.

For a whole semester, Professor Trelawney had been predicting his death, but nothing happened. Harry was used to it.

Now, predicting that Professor Lupin would be imprisoned in Azkaban was a piece of cake for her.

Elwyn heard Harry, Hermione, and Hagrid discussing Azkaban in low voices. They asked for details about Azkaban and tried to imagine the life of Professor Lupin and Sirius Black when they were imprisoned there. Then, the topic turned to Buckbeak, the hippogriff, and Hagrid's classes after Christmas.

Elwyn turned his head away from Professor Trelawney and listened absent-mindedly to Harry and the others' conversation.

Harry and Hermione seemed to be desperately looking for something to say to divert their attention from Ron.

Apart from the three of them, no one at the table spoke. The atmosphere was very depressing.

This was definitely the most unpleasant lunch experience Elwyn had ever had. He ate everything on his plate as fast as he could while whispering a few words to Harry and Hermione, restraining himself from looking at Professor Trelawney.

Fortunately, Professor Trelawney's behavior was almost normal until the end of lunch.

About ten minutes later, Ron finished his meal and was ready to leave the table.

Elwyn, Harry, and Hermione looked at each other and hurriedly stood up.

"Oh my god! Who was the first to leave his seat among the four of you? Who? "Professor Trelawney suddenly screamed.

"I don't know!" Ron said in a low voice.

"I don't think there's any difference!" Professor Meg said coldly. "Unless there's a mad axeman waiting outside the door, determined to cut down the first person who walks out of the hall."

Everyone smiled reluctantly. Professor Trelawney did not speak. She seemed greatly offended!

She glanced contemptuously at Professor Meg, grabbed a bottle of sherry from the table, and left the hall without looking back.
