His little eyes rolled around, and Peter carefully observed everyone.

The Aurors looked angry, Professor McGonagall seemed confused, the Headmaster and Ms. Bones looked serious, Minister Fudge was hesitant, and Mr. and Mrs. Weasley were worried.

Peter is very timid and not smart, which is his shortcoming, but occasionally it becomes an advantage.

After weighing it for a long time, he said, "I, I'm moving..."

"Moving?" Ms. Bones frowned, "What are you moving for?"

"Because, because..." Peter rolled his eyes and thought of a reason, "Because I think something is wrong with Blake, he is a little too crazy! Yes, that's right, I thought he was a little dangerous at that time! So, I I just wanted to change places so I wouldn’t be discovered by him.”

He said a little aggrievedly, "I'm just a little timid..."

"Then why did you go to find Blake?" Ms. Bones's eyes were still sharp.

"I didn't go looking for him!" Peter raised his voice, "I was looking for a house. Yes, I found a house on a Muggle street so that wizards wouldn't find it easily. Yes, that's right. A room with nothing but a bed. He found me and attacked me!"

Ms. Bones pursed her lips, "We have many witnesses who can prove that you had an argument with Sirius and then took out your wand to duel with him. How do you explain this?"

"I was just defending myself!" Peter shouted, "If I didn't take out my wand, he would kill me!"

"So, the fact is that it was Sirius Black who came to find you, right?" Ms. Bones said with no emotion or anger in her tone, "So, what happens next?"

"After that?" Peter was a little confused, and then he suppressed his ecstatic thoughts and said, "Yes, yes, I managed to escape Blake's pursuit. I escaped from the sewer. I hid for a long time, afraid that he would find him. Me, until I came to a vegetable patch and was taken home by a wizard."

As he spoke, he cried bitterly, "Yes, I am afraid that that person will find him, and he will kill me! He will definitely do it!"

Ms. Bones looked at him, as if trying to tell if he was lying, "Well, Peter, why don't you come to the Ministry of Magic for help?"

Peter said tremblingly, "He, he might have escaped. You see, he has escaped now, right?"

"So, do you think the Weasley family can help you keep the secret?" Ms. Bones raised an eyebrow, "Then I really want to know, what secret do you have that makes Black even if he is arrested by the Aurors? I’m going to get rid of you too.”

Peter seemed a little dumbfounded.

What secret?

How did he know what the secret was.

In desperation, he didn't know how to make up a story, so he could only tell half truths and half lies. "I, I don't know, maybe I got some news accidentally? Shouldn't you go and imprison Blake again?"

Ms. Bones looked away and her tone became much gentler, "I'm frightened you, Mr. Pedro, we will catch Sirius Black as soon as possible. Please don't worry, we will arrange special personnel to protect you from Sirius Black." harm."

Peter breathed a sigh of relief. Feeling that he had escaped, he said cautiously, "I, I still think Principal Dumbledore is the safest here."

"What did the Dark Lord want to do with you on October 30th?" Ms. Bones suddenly asked very fast.

Peter, who was already used to answering questions, subconsciously answered, "He asked to take him to Potter's house. I..."

He reacted suddenly and covered his mouth in horror, "No, no, no, I have never seen the Dark Lord! Never!"

As he spoke, he knelt down pleadingly, "How could I go to find the Dark Lord? I'm so timid... I have always regarded Potter as my best friend... Besides, let's talk about the Potter family's secret keeper. It's Sirius Black! How could I possibly know the location of the Potters? It really has nothing to do with me! You have to believe me!"

He wanted to pull at the hem of Ms. Bones's clothes and demand a response from her.

However, the lady who had already got the answer ignored any of his quibbles and turned back to Principal Dumbledore.

Peter was blocked by the angry Aurors, who kicked Pettigrew unceremoniously to the ground and cast many spells to prevent him from escaping.

Peter lay on the ground in terror, unable to move or think.

"I think it's clear." Ms. Bones said with disgust in her voice. "No wonder he was able to escape for so many years. He is such a natural actor."

Fudge pulled his collar, he seemed a little uneasy, "Oh, Bones, this matter... I mean, regarding the Sirius Black case, are you, are you prepared to..."

"Yes, the two parties must reopen the trial." Ms. Bones adjusted her glasses. "We cannot wrongly accuse a good person, let alone let the criminal go free."

She spoke firmly, clearly determined.

Fudge looked a little reluctant. He hesitated and said, "Well... Bones... Well, can it be tried privately? As long as we know internally, it will be fine. Overturning the case or something... This also involves Crouch. Sir...you know, he is not a particularly easy person to compromise..."

"Then the trial will be held while Mr. Crouch is out negotiating." Ms. Bones's lenses reflected a sharp light, "Or are you saying that Mr. Minister is preparing to protect a criminal?"

"Covering? How is that possible?!" Fudge shouted angrily, "I'm just worried that this incident will have a negative impact on public opinion at the Department of Magical Law Enforcement. After all, Black's case was in the Department of Enforcement..."

"It would be the greatest blasphemy against the law to know the truth and not correct it!" Ms. Bones interrupted Fudge, "I will notify the Wizengamot of this matter and make all preparations, Minister. Just sit in the office and wait for news."

"Do you have anything to add?" Bones looked at Percy and Robert. Percy shook his head subconsciously and handed over the record.

Ms. Bones's expression softened a little. She looked through Percy's records casually and said casually, "The records are good. Are you interested in coming to the Legal Enforcement Division?"

Percy was obviously very excited. He stammered, "Yes, yes, I will definitely get 12 O's in this year's exam."

Ms. Bones smiled and said, "Okay, Mr. Weasley, I'll wait for you to come to me at the Legal Enforcement Department with more than ten certificates."
