Harry Potter and the Secret Treasure

Chapter 153 Strange Feelings

Pettigrew was bounced hard and fell to the ground.

He didn't understand what happened, what happened tonight was really weird.

The gate of the castle was clearly open, and there was nothing in front of it, but he couldn't get through, as if there was an invisible wall blocking it.

Pettigrew shook his head to dispel the daze.Before he could make a move, the huge black dog that Sirius Black had turned into leaped forward and slammed down from the stairs, pressing its front paws heavily on his body.

Pettigrew quickly rolled backwards, shaking violently with despair.

He felt the hot breath of Black, and he saw the inch-long sharp teeth, and the eyes filled with hateful rage.

boom! ! !

Blake rolled over Peter's body with overwhelming anger and powerful pounce.

Peter Pettigrew felt as if his ribs were broken, and he fought back the pain, stood up and prepared to run away again.

Before he could make a move, a hand stretched out from the side, and Ivan grabbed him.Peter Pettigrew struggled, but it was useless. Ivan held the long and bald tail firmly, and he couldn't escape at all.Crookshanks jumped to Ivan's shoulder, yelling in a low voice.

"You caught him!" Harry, Hermione, and Ron rushed down the stairs panting.

Harry held the Marauder's Map in his hand, his face was full of joy, Hermione looked at Ivan worriedly, and Ron looked at Peter dully.

"How did you get here, Ivan? I thought you and Professor Snape..." Hermione came over and hugged Ivan.

Ivan blinked, he couldn't understand what Hermione was saying.

Why did Hermione mention Snape? She had obviously never met him.Looking at Harry and Hermione surrounded by him with excited faces, Ivan felt a little weird.It's so strange, Harry and Hermione obviously saved themselves in Professor Lupine's office just now, how could they be with Black and Ron now.

Judging by the expressions of the two of them, it seems that they don't know this matter at all.Also, the figure I saw behind the curtain just now...

Before Ivan could figure out what was going on, he heard Sirius Black's angry growl.

"Give him to me, boy! Give me the mouse!"

Sirius Black has returned to his human form, and he rushed towards Ivan.

"I'm going to kill him!" he yelled furiously, his eyes fixed on Peter with hatred, his face twisted convulsively, revealing a terrible longing.

Seeing Blake's appearance, Peter Pettigrew screamed like a piglet, twisting constantly, his little black eyes bulging out, he tried his best to go backwards, grabbing Ivan's arm hard, trying to escape.

Ivan pulled out his wand and threw Peter out violently.

His wand glowed blue and white, and for a moment Peter hung in midair, its little black body writhing wildly as it fell hard.

There was another blinding flash, and then it was like a fast shot of trees growing.

A head appeared on the ground, and its limbs stretched out; after a while, a man stood where the mouse had been.

Peter Pettigrew wrung his hands timidly, looking at the five people in front of him, his breathing was short and weak.

"Sirius!" said Peter, in a low, trembling voice, panicked, "my dear old friend!"

Blake didn't answer, he expressed his anger with practical actions.

Amidst Peter's screams, he rushed forward, so powerful that he almost tore Peter apart. Harry and Ivan rushed over to separate them.

Blood flowed from the corner of Peter Pettigrew's mouth, and large beads of sweat covered his pale face.

He trembled and hid behind Ivan and Harry, his panicked eyes moved away from Sirius Black, and he quickly glanced at the others, staying on Ivan and Ron for a moment, and then looked at the castle gate of the open castle, There is obviously nothing there, he doesn't understand why he can't get out? !

"You are Peter Pettigrew, the guy who betrayed my parents to Voldemort and killed them?!" Harry said angrily, pointing his wand at Peter condescendingly.

"I don't, kid!" Peter Pettigrew looked at Harry in bewilderment. He was in the office just now, and Harry was obviously attacking him. Why did he say such a thing now? He seemed to have doubts. He didn't understand what was going on. , but instinct told him what to do, he pointed at Black with his right hand with a broken finger and screamed, "He killed James and Lily, and now he's going to kill me, he's V , Voldemort's spy!"

"How dare you say that!" Black's face twisted, and he growled wildly, sounding like a dog the size of a bear growling, "I, Voldemort's spy?! When did I become stronger than me, Sneaking around with people far more influential than me?! But you, Peter! I don't understand why I didn't recognize you as the spy from the start, you've always liked friends who are stronger than you, okay Let them take care of you, don't you?! It's always been us, me and Lupine, and James..."

Peter Pettigrew wiped the sweat off his face, it looked like he might faint at any moment.

"I'm a spy?!" Peter gasped and said tremblingly, "You must be crazy, I never, don't understand how you can say such a thing..."

"Harry, I just told you in front of Snape in the common room that James and Lily let this guy be their secret keeper because of my suggestion!" Black said through gritted teeth. Speaking so fiercely, Peter Pettigrew took a step back unconsciously.

"I thought it was the perfect plan, a brilliant plan, and Voldemort would definitely come after me, never would I have imagined that they would use such a weak and stupid thing as me to kill James and Lily!" Black closed his eyes in pain. Closing his eyes, he opened them again and glared at Peter, "Peter Pettigrew, you told Voldemort that you could hand over the Potters to him. That moment must be the happiest moment in your poor life!"

"Ridiculous, you're crazy!" murmured Peter Pettigrew, "I didn't do that."

"Stop pretending, we know everything, you killed my parents, you framed Sirius Black!" Harry shouted, his face covered with tears, "you are back now, go on Frame Professor Lupine; and Ron, whom you possessed with the Imperius Curse."

"Don't listen to Black, Harry! He's a murderer, he's a madman..." Peter Pettigrew turned to look at Harry, begging, "I admit that I controlled Ron, I exposed Lupine's identity as a werewolf, although what I did was not so appropriate, but I was also trying to catch Black and protect you; Lupine and Black are together, he is dangerous! Believe me, Harry! I am helping Luo Well, I'm helping you!"

Peter Pettigrew knelt on the ground, shaking uncontrollably all over.

Ivan noticed that Ron standing behind Harry moved, and he immediately pointed his wand at him vigilantly.Ron's face was full of confusion, and what happened in front of him seemed to have touched him a lot. Just like in Professor Lupin's office just now, he was resisting the Imperius Curse, and it seemed that he would succeed soon.

Seeing Ron's expression, Ivan hesitated for a moment and did nothing. He was going to observe.

If Ron can break free from the Imperius Curse with his own efforts, it will be very beneficial to him.

Things have developed to this point, and although there are many strange things that have not been figured out, this year's events are destined to be over.

If Ron can successfully resist the Imperius Curse with his own will, it will be the most perfect ending.

Chapter 154 Harry's Choice

"Children, I'm helping you, I'm protecting you from harm!" Peter Pettigrew begged, "Don't listen to Black, this madman wants to kill me!"

"Protect us?! It's ridiculous, that's not what you said in Professor Lupine's office just now." Ivan said softly, "Need I remind you, Wormtail? See what you are going to do to the four of us, you First, you used the Imperius Curse to control Ron, and you also used the Oblivion Curse on Harry and Hermione, and you just wanted to kill me with the Killing Curse, is that how you protect us?!"

"What!" Hearing Ivan's words, Black, Harry, and Hermione exclaimed.

The only trace of pity in their eyes looking at Pettigrew Peter disappeared, and the rest was full of surprise and anger.

"You dirty bastard, how dare you do that?! How dare you do this to these kids?!" Blake snarled frantically, shaking as he threw himself at Peter again.

"No, don't come here!" Peter Pettigrew turned paler when he saw Black's appearance.

He knelt on the ground, hurriedly crawled forward on his knees to Aiwen, clasped his hands together, as if he was begging or praying.

"Ivan, Ivan, there must be some misunderstanding between us. Although I said those things, I didn't do anything, did I?!" Peter Pettigrew cried loudly, "Believe me, I just told you Those words are just for you to understand, for..."

"I already know it very well!" Ivan squinted his eyes and looked at Peter Pettigrew. "Use the Imperius Curse to control Ron to frame the innocent Professor Lupine, and after getting the Marauder's Map, notify Snape to capture Sirius Black." , secretly contact Lucius Malfoy and other pure-blood families who are dissatisfied with Dumbledore, let them join forces to control public opinion, put pressure on the Ministry of Magic to speak good words for you, and help you make up for all unreasonable loopholes. When everything is over, You will be able to reappear as the hero who captured Black and protected Harry and the other little wizards..."

"No, no, it's not..."

"I don't need you to tell me anything, Peter Pettigrew! Also, don't touch me with your dirty hands!" Ivan avoided Pettigrew Peter and walked to Hermione.

Hermione looked terrified, her body shaking slightly.

Ivan gently held the girl's cold little hand, feeling the temperature of Ivan's palm, and Hermione gradually calmed down.

Looking at the boy beside her, although his body was not particularly strong, Hermione felt inexplicably at ease.She has a feeling that as long as Aiwen is here, no matter how crazy things happen in front of her eyes, it will not make her feel the slightest wave.

"Good girl, smart girl, you must be able to understand, help me, you won't let them..." Following Ivan's movements, Peter Pettigrew looked at Hermione.

He seemed to want to crawl over, but seeing Aiwen standing beside Hermione, holding a wand and looking at him coldly, he was frightened, he hesitated and backed away, his whole body trembling uncontrollably, and slowly moved Head turned to Harry.

"Harry, Harry, you really look like your father, just like he used to..."

"How dare you say such things to Harry?!" Black roared loudly, "How dare you face him, how dare you mention James in front of him?!"

"Harry!" Black's roar made Peter Pettigrew even more frightened, and he sped up, crawled forward on his knees, stretched his hands, whispered, cried, and begged, "Harry, James and Lily Let me be killed, they will understand! They will have mercy on me!"

"But I will never know their thoughts, they were all killed by you!" Harry said sadly.

He wiped his tears vigorously, but the tears remained uncontrollably.

"No, I didn't!" Harry's words were like a death sentence for Peter Pettigrew.

He was sobbing weakly, the skin on his face was all tangled and twisted together, looking extremely terrifying and weird.

"It's time to end this, I'm going to kill you to avenge James and Lily!"

Sirius Black walked over, his sleeves rolled up, a gleam of pleasure flitted across his thin face.

"No, Sirius! I'm Wormtail, and I'm your friend, and you won't..." Peter Pettigrew struggled, gripping Black's robe tightly.

"Go away, you don't need to touch it, my robe is dirty enough!" Black kicked Peter away.

"I know, I admit, I was really confused, but you have to think for me, what can I do? You don't know, that Dark Lord, his powerful weapon, you can't even imagine, I was Scared, Sirius!" Peter Pettigrew trembled, "I've never been as brave as you, Remus, or James, but trust me, I never did that on purpose, the one who can't even be named People forced me."

"Don't lie!" Black snarled. "Before James and Lily died, you have been passing information to him. For a year, Dumbledore suspected that there were spies among us, but James and I were in his I assure you, I am really blind, I even doubted Lupine!"

"You don't understand, he, he meddles in everything, I can't help it!!" Peter Pettigrew gasped, "Besides, what's the good of refusing him?"

"Huh, what's the use of fighting the most evil monster ever?!" Blake's face showed frightening fury, "Just to save innocent lives, Peter!"

"You don't understand!" lamented Peter Pettigrew. "He'll kill me, Sirius!"

"Then you're damned!" Black yelled. "It's better to be dead than to betray a friend, and we'll do it for you."

"No, I can't die, there's so much to do and I haven't gotten what I deserve..." Peter Pettigrew screamed, but that didn't stop Black from approaching him.

Blake walked towards Peter Pettigrew step by step, and every step closer meant that Peter was a little closer to death.

Ron looked pale at what happened in front of him, which touched him a lot. It seemed that he might break free from the control of the Imperius Curse at any time.

Peter Pettigrew begged helplessly, and Hermione turned her face away, leaning gently on Ivan's shoulder.

Looking at the fanatical Blake, Ivan hesitated.

In his opinion, it is really inappropriate to allow Black to kill Pettigrew Peter in a venting manner. They should hand over Peter to Dumbledore and the Ministry of Magic, let them judge Peter, and let him pay for what he has done in the past. Because, paying the due price, this is the most sensible approach.

But Ivan didn't move, he saw Harry coming out, and he had more say than himself in dealing with Peter.

Harry sprinted to block Peter Pettigrew, who gasped and said, "Sirius, you can't kill him!"

"Harry, do you know what you're doing, this ruffian who's made you lose your parents!" growled Blake, "that cringeworthy filthy fellow who wouldn't mind seeing you die. You heard him just say That's right, his own stinky skin is more important than the lives of your whole family."

"I understand!" Harry gasped, "He killed my parents, he framed Professor Lupine, he controlled Ron, and he tried to kill Ivan, I will not forgive him for doing this Thing, never! But you can't kill him, Sirius, I don't think my dad would want his best friend to kill! Especially killing such a person, it's not worth it!"

Chapter 155 Black's Expectation

"Thank you, Harry! Thank you for saving me, James would be proud of you..." gasped Peter Pettigrew, throwing his arms around Harry's knee.

"Don't mention my dad's name, you don't deserve it!" Harry spat, shaking Peter Pettigrew's hand in disgust, "Let me go, I didn't do this for you, I did it for Sirius! I don't want him Because of you, I became a murderer!"

"Harry!" Black looked at Harry, his angry eyes calming down for the first time.

Harry looked back at Black. No one moved or made a sound except Peter Pettigrew.

Peter Pettigrew clutched his chest, gasping for breath.

"You are the only one who has the right to make a decision, Harry!" Black said slowly, with immense satisfaction in his eyes, just like looking at his old friend James, "But before making a decision, I I hope you can think about it and think about what he has done!"

"I know that he has done many bad things that I will never forget and will never be forgiven. He should pay for what he did. We can hand him over to Dumbledore or the Dementors! He can Go to Azkaban, if anyone should go there, it's him!"

Pettigrew Peter panted heavily behind Harry, and when he heard Azkaban and Dementors, his face was so pale that there was no blood left.He suddenly thought that the conversation he had just had with Ivan in Lupin's office, the dementors would not let him go, they would give him a kiss!

This is the worst possible ending, worse than death.

From then on, his soul will never be restored, he will live like a walking dead, and in the horror of Azkaban, he will become the food of the dementors forever.

No, this can't be allowed to happen! ! !

There was a flash of determination in Peter Pettigrew's eyes. He couldn't be caught and given to the Dementors, he had to escape.

Twelve years ago, he sacrificed a finger to escape from Sirius Black; he can escape this time too, no matter how much it costs, he will not hesitate.

Peter Pettigrew hesitated, touching Harry's robes.

He glanced secretly at the open castle gate, he had a great chance, outside was the Forbidden Forest, which was very suitable for his Animagus form to hide in; besides, there were Dementors not far away They don't know that Black is innocent.

As long as Black went out, they would grab him the first time, and even kiss him directly.

I haven't lost yet, as long as I can run out of this door!

Peter Pettigrew thought of the weird barrier magic that bounced himself back just now, just like Ivan's wand not listening to his orders, he didn't understand what was going on, it was beyond his cognition, but he had to go try it again.

Maybe, he could hijack Harry to join him? !

That magic might only work when he passed by himself, and if someone accompanied him, he might be able to go out.

Peter Pettigrew held Harry's robes tightly, hesitating rather than acting immediately.

It was too close to Ivan and Black, and he was not sure; if Harry struggled and he didn't grab the wand immediately, the consequences would be disastrous.

The next second, Peter Pettigrew saw Ron standing by the gate. Ron's face was as pale as his own, and his face was full of pain and confusion.

Peter knew that Ron was trying to resist the Imperius Curse, but he hadn't broken free of his grip yet.

His eyes were fixed on the wand in Ron's hand. He needed this wand, it was his only hope.
