Hogwarts: Harley from the Witch Path

Chapter 223 Gryffindor is Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon!

After the battle, Hermione also emerged from behind a cabinet.

She watched Harry put layers of gray light on Pettigrew's body, and couldn't help feeling curious:

"Harry, why did you knock him unconscious? Don't you need to interrogate him?"

"Not for now," Harry shook his head, "I'm going to take him to find some people and determine some important truths."

Saying that, Harry clapped his hands lightly, and instead of casting curses and black magic, he summoned more spider silk, wrapping around Pettigrew's body.

Hermione nodded, blushing again, and said embarrassingly, "Sorry, Harry. My aim seemed a little... a little..."

Harry shook his head: "It's okay, it's normal."

"Actual combat is completely different from normal training, and there will always be various accidents."

"Not to mention that you haven't had relevant training at all. You're not good at actual combat, and it's completely normal to be nervous."

Hermione frowned subconsciously, as if a little dissatisfied, but she had to admit that Harry was telling the truth.

The little witch quietly watched Harry pack Peter Pettigrew, and suddenly asked in a low voice, "Then can you teach me actual combat?"

"Well...of course." Harry nodded.

Hermione, who got an affirmative answer, curled up into a smile, and said nothing.

Finally, Harry finished packing: "Let's go, the Christmas presents have been prepared in advance. Let's go to Principal Dumbledore now."

Saying so, Harry waved his wand, and Peter Pettigrew hovered directly behind Harry.

The principal's office was not too far from the Room of Requirement, and the two soon came to the stone statue.

"Harry," Hermione suddenly remembered, "we don't seem to know the password for the headmaster's office."

"It's okay, I have a way to notify Professor Dumbledore."

Saying that, the silver Medusa emerged from the tip of Harry's wand and sank into the wall behind the stone statue.

After about 10 minutes, the stone wall suddenly cracked and the stone statue jumped to the side.

Professor Dumbledore strode out in red and gold pajamas.

"Harry, it's not a good habit to call me with a Patronus in the principal's office in the middle of the night."

Professor Dumbledore said softly,

"I think the little wizard should be asleep in bed at this time, at least in the common room."

"I'm sorry, Headmaster Dumbledore," Harry said with a sweet smile on his face, "but I have very important things to do."

"Yeah, it's really important." Professor Dumbledore looked past Harry and Hermione, and looked at the petite star suspended in mid-air.

Although Pettigrew was bound like a zongzi by spider silk, his face was still exposed.

"Peter Pettigrew?" Professor Dumbledore adjusted his half-moon glasses with surprise on his face.

"It's him." Harry nodded.

"It seems that something happened in the school that I don't know about," Professor Dumbledore's eyes were full of seriousness,
"I don't know if you would like to go to the office and have a chat with me, an old man? By the way, bring this friend who should have died?"

"No, Professor." Harry looked seriously at Professor Dumbledore's blue eyes,
"I think this matter should be discussed in Hagrid's cabin, and Professor Lupine can be called by the way."

Professor Dumbledore raised his eyebrows: "Things seem to be more interesting."

"Of course, Harry, but we still have to go to the office. I'll let Fox call someone."

"Of course, I have to call on Professor McGonagall. I think as your dean, she is entitled to know certain things."

With that said, Professor Dumbledore turned and walked into the spiral staircase behind the wall, Harry followed closely behind him.

Hermione glanced at the constantly moving stairs, and stepped up cautiously, subconsciously holding Harry's clothes tightly.

After entering the principal's office, Fox stood at the table eating herbs.

"Fawkes," cried Professor Dumbledore, "find Minerva and Remus for me, and bring them straight to me."

Fox swallowed the herbs in his mouth, raised his head and let out a cry, which turned into a flame.

"Please sit down," Professor Dumbledore waved his wand and conjured up two chairs,

"Would you like something to drink? Milk or black tea? If it's milk, do you want to add honey?"

"Milk and honey, thank you Professor." Harry said softly, and Hermione made the same choice.

After arranging the two students, Professor Dumbledore did not sit down, but studied carefully around Peter Pettigrew.

Harry sipped his milk, looking up at the wall.

Because newcomers came to the office, the old principals all closed their eyes, and some old men even snored.

But looking at their fluttering eyelashes, Harry guessed they were mostly pretending to be asleep.

After a while, Fox appeared in the open space of the office with Professor McGonagall and Professor Lupine one after another.

Both professors were in pajamas and held wands.

After seeing Professor Dumbledore, Professor McGonagall immediately asked, "Albus, what do you want from us..."

Before he finished speaking, Professor McGonagall saw Pettigrew Peter, and the rest of the sentence was blocked in his throat.

And Professor Lupine, who came one step ahead of Professor McGonagall, didn't say a word, but stood side by side with Professor Dumbledore.

"Harry has a special friend tonight, so I'd like to invite you all over for a get-together."

Professor Dumbledore said with a smile,

"Harry suggested we go to Hagrid's cabin and talk about it..."

Professor Lupine's pupils shrank instantly, and his breathing became short of breath for a moment.

"...so let's talk in detail when we get there!"

Seeing that there was no objection from the crowd, Dumbledore coughed lightly.

Fawkes, who had already flown back to the table and continued to eat herbs, uttered an angry cry, and flew to Professor Dumbledore's head, pecking hard twice.

After a little venting his emotions about being interrupted from eating, Fox started to work, and sent several people outside Hagrid's hut one after another.

When Hermione finally arrived, Fawkes gave Professor Dumbledore an angry look before falling into Harry's soft arms.

Dumbledore didn't pay attention to Fox, who was having a temper with him, but knocked on the door of Hagrid's cabin.

"Hagrid, it's me, Dumbledore. I have something to ask of you."

There were several barks of dogs suddenly sounded from behind the door, but then there was a shout: "Yaya, shut up!"

Soon, there was a noise at the door, and a faint light was lit on the window that had been drawn.
"Professor Dumbledore, please come in." Hagrid said loudly, pulling open the door forcefully.

After opening the door, Hagrid saw a group of people behind Professor Dumbledore.

"Professor Dumbledore, what happened..."

Before Hagrid could finish his sentence, Professor Dumbledore stopped him neatly: "We'll go in and have a detailed discussion."

Hagrid nodded and said nothing more.

When everyone went in, Sirius, who was lying beside the stove, lazily opened his eyes, raised his head, and saw a large number of people coming.

He smells someone.Three of them are very familiar to him, while the rest are a little strange and only exist in memory.

When Sirius saw Professor Dumbledore and the others, he instantly shrank his neck, trying to block himself with a chair.

But when he saw Peter, the dog's eyes instantly opened as big as a bell.

"Wow, woof!" Sirius forgot to hide himself, howled loudly subconsciously, stepped on the chair and rushed towards Peter Pettigrew.

But he stopped in mid-air, and the snow-white and tough spider silk bound his four dog legs.

"Please calm down, my dear godfather, Sirius Black."

Harry spoke softly, not loudly, but clearly audible in Hagrid's room.

Professor McGonagall subconsciously took a step back and drew out her wand, while Hermione covered her mouth and let out a sharp scream.

Professor Lupine let out a long sigh and lowered his head.

Hagrid picked up the chair after hearing what Harry said, "Sirius? Where is this traitor! You mean this big black dog is Sirius?"

"Calm down, Hagrid!" Professor Dumbledore said slightly emphatically.

When his identity was discovered, Sirius' mind went blank.

He subconsciously glanced at Professor Lupine, but Professor Lupine lowered his head and didn't look at him at all.

After a moment of hesitation, the big black dog began to slowly transform into a black-haired middle-aged wizard.

"Sirius." Professor McGonagall looked at the familiar figure and said subconsciously, his voice full of complex emotions.

"Professor Dumbledore, Professor McGonagall, Hagrid...Harry..." Sirius lowered his head, his voice trembling.

Professor Dumbledore didn't look at him, but waved his wand.

A chair appeared next to the table, and the cutlery on the table was put away by Hagrid in the cupboard.

Everyone sat down.Although Sirius was still tied tightly, the other end of the spider silk was also connected to the chair.

And Peter was placed in the middle of the table, still unconscious.

"Harry, it looks like you know a lot of things. I think you can tell us what's going on?" Professor Dumbledore looked at Harry after everyone was seated.

"Of course." Harry nodded.

Later, she started talking about her encounter with Sirius, including discovering Professor Lupine's identity as a werewolf and the abnormality of Sirius, and through the dialogue between the two, she identified a problem with Pettigrew.

In the end, Peter Pettigrew can be found, and Harley once again pushed to the partial magic left in the Potter family's almighty vault.

After all, his father and his friends could make the Marauder's Map back then, so it was reasonable for the Potter family to have inheritance of tracking magic.

When he heard that his identity as a werewolf had been discovered on the train, Professor Lupine gave a wry smile and was not surprised.

After all, Harley is so good, it's even more abnormal not to discover her identity.

However, when Sirius heard that he had exposed so many suspicious points, and at the same time, he had already been cursed with surveillance type, his eyes widened in surprise.

He was sure that although the child looked like Lily, he was also as well-behaved as Lily.

But Harley's essential character is definitely a mixture of James and Lily, a naughty little devil!
She actually cursed herself silently, monitoring herself all the time.

And after figuring everything out early, Harley was able to say nothing until he caught Peter Pettigrew alone!
This made Sirius feel very frustrated, and felt that he was old and not as good as he was back then.

But he also has a kind of pride, a kind of pride when he sees that his juniors are promising.

After listening to Harry's words, Professor Dumbledore crossed his index fingers and showed a pensive look.

Professor McGonagall was a little shocked, and at the same time felt a little lost.

I really didn't expect Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon among my students!
Regarding the truth of the matter and who is the traitor, Professor McGonagall will not comment until the truth emerges.

But there are three illegal Animagus that I don't know about, you really gave me a surprise quietly!

Also, Harry's magical attainments are so strong, she doesn't know it at all!
As for Hagrid, he was at a loss for words, and felt his brains burnt dry.

Only Hermione sat there quietly, staring at Harry intently, her eyes seemed to be twinkling with stars.

"I probably understand," Professor Dumbledore finally spoke. "Remus, is there anything you want to say to me?"

"I'm sorry, Professor Dumbledore." Professor Lupine trembled with every word, every syllable, and even every punctuation mark.
"I have failed your trust. Back then, James and I wandered into the Forbidden Forest on a full moon night, regardless of the safety of others."

"And after Sirius was brought into Hogwarts by Harry, I didn't tell you directly, but trusted my own judgment..."

"Remus." Professor Dumbledore softly interrupted Professor Lupine's remorse,
"The words of self-blame can be said later, we should start to solve the current problems first."

"As a good friend of James and an important person involved, I would like to ask your opinion on the whole matter."

"As Harry said, Professor Dumbledore." Professor Lupine said softly,
"After going through insanity, I am willing to believe in Sirius."

Professor Dumbledore nodded, and looked at the man tied to the chair: "Sirius, do you have anything to say?"

"No, nothing." Sirius shook his head, then looked at Harry,

"If anything, Harry, I'm proud of you. I think James and Lily feel the same way I do."

"Also, can you let me kill that mouse with your own hands to avenge James? Although I can't correct the mistakes I made, at least...at least..."

Sirius seemed to be thinking of painful memories, his voice was trembling, and he couldn't speak any more.

But Harry poured cold water on him.

"Of course not, my dear godfather." Harry tilted his head and looked at Sirius. "If you really want to take revenge, then I should take revenge and let him pay with blood."
