Hogwarts: When the live Q&A goes live

Chapter 187 Fudge's Arrival and Conversation
"how so……"

"How could my mouse Scabbers be Peter Pettigrew?"

"12 years, he has been in my house for 12 years, and I used to hug him to sleep."

"How could this be? I not only hugged him to sleep, but also took good care of him."

"In that case, don't I have taken good care of an old man for two or three years?"

Originally walking to Ron's side, Draco was going to persuade him to open up a bit.

Isn't it just a mouse?
Isn't it just the loss of a pet?

No big deal, he'll give him one for Christmas when the time comes.

As a result, when he actually walked up to Ron.

Only then did I realize that what I thought was slightly different from what Ron said.

Unexpectedly, it was not that he lost a pet that made Ron lose his mind, but that he had taken care of an old man for two or three years.

It's right to think about it, if you replace him with yourself.

Maybe I have to collapse myself.

Who would have imagined that the pet I took good care of would turn out to be an old man.

Thinking of this, Draco couldn't hold back and laughed out loud.

Hearing the laughter, Ron looked up at Draco glaringly.

"why are you laughing?"

"I remembered a very happy thing."

Facing Ron's questioning with dissatisfaction, Draco gradually calmed down after being subconsciously flustered when he was discovered for the first time.

Looking at Draco with a calm face, Ron's eyes flashed with suspicion.

He always felt that Draco's smile just now seemed to be malicious.

As if targeting him.

"Really? Then you remembered something happy."

"My dog ​​is having a baby."

Speaking of things that he didn't know, Draco's face didn't change.

There was no blush, no heartbeat.

Isn't it just to lie to someone?
It's not the first time this has been done.

Ron looked at Draco, and the two stared at each other for a few seconds.

Draco didn't react at all, his face was very calm.

This made Ron gradually dispel the doubts in his eyes.

Seeing that Ron's face had returned to normal, Draco was secretly relieved.

It was so dangerous, he almost revealed his secrets.

He was just a little bit unable to hold back the plainness on his face.

Now when I saw Ron, all I could think about was sleeping with Scabbers in his arms.

Then all of a sudden, Scabbers the mouse turned into Peter Pettigrew.

That's what he thought just now, so he almost couldn't hold back the expression on his face and laughed out loud.

Fortunately, fortunately, there is no exposure.

I don't know what's going on with Harry now.

While the three of them in the Screaming Shack were contemplating their own affairs.

Harry and Black had come to the principal's office along with Professor Dumbledore.

Before entering the office, you could hear footsteps coming from inside.

One can imagine how anxious Fudge was in the principal's office.

Originally, it was just to bring Black back to Azkaban.

It seems troublesome, but in fact, all he needs is for Black to show up, and the Aurors and Dementors who have been waiting for him will capture him.

Even when it was very dangerous, those Aurors could use the Unforgivable Curse on Black.

This is from the authority issued by the Minister of Magic.

But he never expected that he suddenly received a letter from Dumbledore tonight.

At the beginning of the letter it just said that they had found Blake.

Fudge was so excited and joyful at that time.

He is very sure to use this matter to re-establish his reputation and prestige in England, the land of the magical world.

It even wiped away some of the negative effects caused by Black's escape from prison.

But in the back, he saw Dumbledore's style change again.

It simply and straightforwardly stated that Blake is actually a victim, and the real murderer is actually Peter Pettigrew.

Seeing this, Fudge froze for a moment.

He began to think about whether this matter would affect him by some other factors.

But after thinking about it, he suddenly realized.

When Black was tried, he was not yet the Minister of Magic.

That is the stand left by the previous term.

Suddenly, Fudge saw an opportunity.

A chance to get rid of the negative effects of Black's jailbreak, and even throw the blame on others.

So, after thinking it through, he didn't notify other Ministry of Magic officials.

Instead, he called up the Aurors belonging to his faction first, and a few people used Floo powder to reach the Hogwarts principal's office ahead of time through the fireplace of the Ministry of Magic.

Less than an hour has passed since receiving Dumbledore's urgent letter.

I have to say, there is a phoenix to deliver the letter, it is really fast.

Almost in a whoosh, the letter arrived.

So, when Harry and the others arrive.

Fudge had been waiting in the principal's office for at least ten minutes.

When Dumbledore appeared in front of his eyes, he almost trotted all the way to Dumbledore.

If he hadn't been concerned that there were other people here, he might not even want the face of his Minister of Magic, and ran directly to Dumbledore.

"Albus, who are you talking about?"

"He's behind us."

Dumbledore said, leaning aside.

Make way.

Then Fudge first saw Black who was still wearing a prison uniform, he was stunned for a moment, and then silently suppressed his shock.

As if nothing happened, and I didn't see Sirius Black.

Instead, those behind him let out a burst of exclamation, and subconsciously pulled out their wands to protect their Minister of Magic.

Fudge knew it was coming when he heard the voice behind him.

He turned around and stared at those people fiercely, regretting why he brought people here.

Later, when Snape appeared with Peter Pettigrew.

The Minister for Magic frowned.

"He's...Peter Pettigrew?"

"Yes, no one thought that he would be the one who betrayed the James family and caused their family to be ruined."

"Since working for the mysterious person, it is a crime and should be imprisoned in Azkaban."

Fudge first declared his position and criticized Peter Pettigrew.

Then, the voice changed.

"If Peter Pettigrew betrayed the Potters back then, how did he survive until now without any news being revealed in the magic world?"

"Because he's an illegal Animagus."

Dumbledore took a deep look at Fudge, and continued to speak until his heart was frightened.

"His animagus is a mouse, and that's why he hid in the Weasleys' house for years without being discovered."

"The Weasleys?"

Fudge was stunned for a moment, and he didn't realize why he was dragging on to the Weasleys.

But soon he realized what Dumbledore meant.

Turning his eyes, he saw Peter Pettigrew's miserable appearance, but he didn't care at all.

The conversation went on, except for Harry and a few professors and a few of Fudge's cronies.

No one knows what happened in the principal's office tonight.
