Primordial Warlock of Hogwarts

Chapter 167

When mice have no holes to dig through, dogs are actually good at catching mice.

The leash stretched almost infinitely, not affecting Sirius Black's movements at all.The black dog's pounce spanned the entire distance of the room and landed at Banban's position. Banban's four legs moved quickly, avoiding the black dog's paws, and rushed towards the door when the black dog turned.

"Wait a minute," Harry shouted, "What's wrong with Scabbers? He's never been so energetic recently..."

"Don't worry." DeWitt put his foot up against the door, waved his hand and closed the window, concentrating on appreciating the drama of a dog taking a mouse - it's not unusual for a dog to take a mouse, and dogs can also eat flies, but if It would be interesting if both the dog and the mouse were wizards. At the same time, he did not forget to give the mouse a little stumbling block, such as suddenly raising his foot to scare it - just this moment, the relationship between Scabbers and Sirius Black The distance was shortened by a crucial amount, and the brief stagnation allowed the sharp dog claws to press the mouse's neck.

Without even thinking, Sirius Black opened his mouth and was about to bite off Scabbers' head, but his head was pulled tightly by the suddenly tightened dog leash, and he could no longer lower it any lower.

The ice that appeared out of thin air froze Banban's body and suspended the mouse's thinking.

"Let me kill him!" Sirius Black roared, not caring that Harry was startled by the sudden male voice in the room.

"Don't be crazy!" DeWitt scolded: "You might as well take a look at Harry first!"

Harry asked weakly: "Who are you talking to..."

DeWitt lifted the invisibility spell, and the metal dog chain that stretched across the room during the hunt and the black dog that was desperately trying to bite Scabbers appeared. Hermione, who heard the movement inside, knew that Scabbers had been taken down, and she was worried about Sirius. Blake would do something irrational and push the door open. He was shocked when he saw Harry: "Harry? Why are you here?"

"Of course I'm here, where else can I go? I can't go to Hogsmeade!" Harry replied irritably: "I have nothing else to do!"

"Now you have it," DeWitt waved to Scabbers, who was frozen into ice, and controlled the thing to float over. He said to both Harry and Sirius Black: "Just wait together now. It’s confirmed, and confirming this requires someone with enough status, let’s go find Dumbledore... Professor, do you have any opinions?”

Sirius Black stared at Scabbers hard and said, "No objection, as long as you say you can let me tear him apart."

"And you, Harry," DeWitt said, not bothering to pay attention to Blake's threat: "You'd better come too, this matter has to do with you."

Everything went well. In recent days, Dumbledore had hardly left the castle for a moment in order to protect Hogwarts from being invaded by dark creatures. When three people, a cat, a dog and a mouse found the principal's office, even the code words Without saying anything, the door opened.

The Headmaster sat in his usual seat and listened to Hermione recount the events of the past.

DeWitt released Sirius Black's chain, put away his wand, and motioned for the black dog to return to his human form.Sirius Black also did the same. The first thing he did after turning into human form was to sit down on the sofa, lowering his head and not daring to look at Harry. Not only because he didn't look like an elder, but more like He is a big friend who has done something wrong, and the pain in his heart is tormenting him all the time.

Harry, the main party involved in this matter, was already stupid. After the words were understood, their meanings continued to change. It would not be an exaggeration to call them twists and turns. The impact was like thousands of thunderous sounds. The big drums were stuffed into his head at the same time, making him numb and unconscious, shaking unconsciously.

He was angry when he heard that the black dog was Blake, and was confused when he heard Blake's explanation about the murder of his parents.Hatred can actually bring some benefits at this time. At least it can give Harry a goal instead of sitting there in despair, as if he has lost his soul.Finally, he learned that Peter Pettigrew was Scabbers, the real culprit who indirectly killed his parents and directly killed dozens of Muggles. The target of hatred appeared again. There was anger in his heart, but this anger was no longer burning. The anger was the remnants of the coals, still hot, but no longer as intense as when facing Blake.

In the end, Harry said calmly: "Then just see if Scabbers is a human."

It can only be said that he looked very calm, but this calmness made Sirius Black heartache. However, Black still did not have the courage to comfort Harry, and Harry did not look at Black again.

Dumbledore said calmly: "I have informed Professor Lupin, and he should also want to come over."

Professor Lupine arrived quickly. He recognized the mouse at a glance, but he said nothing.

DeWitt thawed Scabbers the mouse, and Dumbledore raised his wand.

While chanting the spell in a low voice, Banban began to change and reveal his original shape, turning into an ugly, short, sloppy fat man with a pointed nose and green bean eyes. He had a rat-like appearance, and he had an obvious bald head, and he was very dirty. , all the rats in Knockturn Alley are more respectable than him.

"Professor Lupin," Dumbledore said suddenly, "would you like to go to Professor Snape and ask for some Veritaserum?"

Blake made a strange sound with his nose and throat.

Professor Lupine and Professor Dumbledore looked at each other briefly, and he nodded in agreement, releasing his wolf Patronus.

Professor Snape was coming soon. His robes were blowing as he walked. He passed the three students without even looking at them. He also ignored Sirius Black's strange voice of disdain. He took out a small bottle from his robes and smoked it. Slap Peter Pettigrew on the face, stretch the muscles on the other person's face, and put three drops of Veritaserum on Peter Pettigrew's open mouth.

Immediately, Dumbledore awakened Peter Pettigrew.

The questioning began, and what happened more than ten years ago was confirmed one by one. The true face of Peter Pettigrew, the shameful betrayer, was completely revealed under the effect of the potion.

Except for Dumbledore who asked the question and Peter Pettigrew who answered, everyone else was brewing various complex emotions in silence.

The story about the Fidelity Curse is very simple. During the days when Voldemort was fighting against Voldemort, Voldemort would hunt down all his enemies. In order to protect themselves and Harry when he was born, Harry's parents thought of using the Fidelity Curse to protect their family. .They had the opportunity to let Dumbledore be the secret keeper, but they chose not to. They made Sirius Black the secret keeper to prove their friendship. When it came to the most critical moment, they decided to change people, thinking they were smart. , replaced Peter Pettigrew as the secret keeper, but at this time Peter Pettigrew had already surrendered to Voldemort.

Voldemort entered the house protected by the Fidelity Charm and killed Harry's parents.

Everyone thought Blake was a traitor, but only Blake knew that the real traitor was Peter Pettigrew. He went to kill Peter, but failed.

"I have informed Fudge," Dumbledore took off his glasses, rubbed his brow and said, "It's time for the truth to come out."
