Harry Potter and the Secret Treasure

While Peter Pettigrew made up his mind, the conversation between Black and Harry continued.

"Hand over Peter instead of killing him, do you know what that means?"

"I know!" said Harry. "That means, you're free!"

"Yes..." Blake said hesitantly, "I don't know if you've been told, Harry, that I'm your godfather!"

"Ivan told me!" Harry said softly.

"This kid knows everything. It's all thanks to him that he was able to catch Peter this time. I really owe him too much. I will find a way to repay him!" Black thought of what Ivan said to himself in the owl post office yesterday. He said stiffly, "But, Harry! One thing, I must tell you, I am your godfather, and your parents once appointed me to be your guardian, if any misfortune happened to them..."

Ivan, Harry, and Hermione were all waiting for Black to continue talking. They all had a hunch what Black would say next.

Under everyone's gaze, Blake hesitated, he had never looked so nervous before.

"Think about it, Harry! Once my honor is restored, if you want a, a different home, you can..." Black looked at Harry, "Of course, if you want to be with your aunt and uncle Stay, I'll understand."

"Would you like me to live with you, Sirius?" Harry looked at him closely and said impatiently, "Leave the Dursleys?"

"Of course, I don't think you'd like to," said Blake quickly. "I understand, I just thought I would..."

"Are you crazy?" Harry's voice cracked suddenly. "Of course I want to leave the Dursleys! Do you have a house? When can I move in?"

"You want to?!" Black looked at Harry incredulously, "Are you serious?"

"Yes, I mean it!" Harry replied, "It's something I've always dreamed of doing."

Hearing Harry's words, Black's thin face broke into a real smile for the first time.Ivan had never seen such a smile before, and the effect of the smile was astonishing, as if someone ten years younger than him was showing joy to everyone through the hunger mask.

It's all over, and that's probably the best ending to this year's events.

They caught Peter Pettigrew, they saved Black, and next summer, Harry can move in to live with Black, as for not staying at the Dursleys, Harry's mother left that protection on him Whether the magic can still work is something that Dumbledore needs to worry about.

Everything seemed to work out perfectly, except that Ron didn't break free from the Imperius Curse.

The conversation just now touched Ron a lot, but it didn't seem to be enough to help him strengthen his willpower to resist Peter's control.

Ivan sighed. If Ron didn't succeed this time, it meant that he might still be controlled by Voldemort or other dark wizards in the next few years. He had to be careful with Ron.Being controlled by Peter Pettigrew this time is already a lesson!Once Ron has any abnormal behavior, he must take decisive action.

Aiwen turned his gaze to Ron who was standing aside, and he was about to use the curse on him in the past.

But he suddenly discovered that Ron had walked from the original corner to Peter Pettigrew without knowing it.

His position happened to completely block everyone's wand aimed at Peter.

Aiwen suddenly had an ominous premonition. Before he could take action, the next second, Peter Pettigrew, who had been lying on the ground, stood up abruptly...

Chapter 156 The Meaning of Friends

Peter Pettigrew suddenly grabbed Ron from behind. No one expected him to do this. He was too close to Ron.

Ron didn't dodge either, he stood there pale and let Peter grab him.

Peter Pettigrew snatched the wand, and Ron stood in front of him like a rag doll.

The warmth that Harry and Black had just created dissipated in an instant.The atmosphere became tense again, Harry and Hermione hurriedly aimed their wands at Pettigrew Peter.

"Ron!" said Hermione worriedly, looking at them tearfully.

"You vile coward, let go of Ron!" Harry yelled angrily.

Ivan didn't speak, but the end of the wand in his hand was glowing faintly.

This is the manifestation of the magic power gathering. He stared closely at Peter Pettigrew, looking for an opportunity to make a move.

"Peter Pettigrew, you dirty bastard, you groveling coward, let go of that boy!" Blake growled angrily, "You really let me down, I should have killed you just now!"

"Give me to the dementors, it's no different from killing me directly, and it may even be worse!" Pettigrew Peter trembled and begged with an extremely frightened expression on his face, "I can't go there, they will kill me Sucked away from my soul! Let me go, Sirius, for the sake of being friends!"

"Friend?!" Blake walked towards Peter, and said through gritted teeth, "I was really blind at the time, and I actually made a friend like you. This is the thing I regret the most in my life!"

"No, don't come over here!" shrieked Peter Pettigrew, pointing his wand at Black, then quickly turned back and pointed it at Ron's chest, "Stay away from me, all of you, put down your wand, if you still want to If you keep Ron alive, do as I tell you, otherwise..."

In the huge hall, he was the only one shouting at the top of his lungs, no one moved.

"Quickly, do as I say!" Peter Pettigrew, with a flicker of madness in his eyes, yelled, "I'm not kidding, I'll give you ten more seconds, if any of you don't Throw down your wand and wait to collect Ron's body."

Ivan, Harry, Hermione, and Black glanced at each other, and they hesitated.

Peter Pettigrew was clearly playing for real, he was really going to kill Ron, and the end of his wand in his hand began to glow with a faint green glow, which was Avada Kedavra.

Harry panted heavily, looking at Peter Pettigrew unwillingly.

He suddenly regretted that he had stopped Black from killing Peter just now. If he hadn't done that, this situation would not have happened now.In order to clear the grievances of Sirius Black, he can't let Peter Pettigrew go, but he can't ignore Ron.

Harry hesitated, not knowing what to do.

On the one hand, he is his best friend, and on the other hand, he is indeed his godfather. No matter which one he gives up, he will feel distressed.

"Do as he says, Harry!" said Black suddenly. "Put the wand down, we must keep the boy safe."

"But……"

"It's nothing!" said Blake eagerly. "This boy is your friend, and we cannot leave him alone. Remember, Harry, that if a friend is in danger and needs your help, you will do everything in your power." If I can help him, I will not hesitate to pay the price of my life!"

Harry sobbed at Black's words and threw his wand to the ground.

"Ron, I know you are controlled by Peter Pettigrew. I don't know if you can hear me, but I still want to say..." Harry looked up at Ron, his eyes were extremely firm, and he exhausted all his strength Shouted, "Ron, you are my best friend, forever! Just like Sirius said just now, I would give my life to help you! So, I hope you wake up quickly."

No one spoke, everyone looked at Harry quietly and listened to his loud cry from the heart.

"You are a good son of your father, Harry!" Black said with relief, "I am so proud of you!"

"Fine, two more!" shrieked Peter Pettigrew, who was also weeping, and the tears blurred his eyes.

He tried his best not to cry, he saw the shadow of James in Harry, he thought that he once had such a friend who was willing to give everything for him, he thought of James, Sirius and Lupine when he was a student All kinds of past events, they took risks in Hogwarts together, and their footprints are everywhere on the campus.

But he has nothing now, and he destroyed it all with his own hands.

Hearing Harry's shout, Peter Pettigrew told himself over and over again in his heart that what he did was not wrong, and hiding behind the strong was the right choice.

If he had fought against the Dark Lord, he would probably be dead by now!

"Ivan, Hermione, I have no right to ask you to do anything, but..." Black looked at Ivan and Hermione who were still holding their wands.

"I know, Sirius!" Ivan put his wand on the ground, he looked at Ron and said slowly, "I told you just now in Professor Lupine's office, Ron! Although you have many shortcomings, but , you are not the same as the guy behind you at all! You two have an essential difference, you will never betray your friends, we all believe in you, don't let everyone down."

"Yes, Ron, we all believe in you!" Hermione also put down her wand, her eyes were red and said, "Remember how we became friends? Remember in the first grade, you and Harry The moment you rescued me from the troll? At that time, you defeated that troll! Without you, I would have died long ago! If possible, I would also pay the price of my life for you."

Seeing what happened in front of him, Ron stood there pale, his face full of pain.

He was being led by Peter Pettigrew slowly back out of the foyer.

Ron's body was trembling uncontrollably, Peter was giving new orders in his mind, but Ron couldn't listen to a word, all he was thinking about was what Harry, Ivan, and Hermione just said those words.

He has done so many things that are sorry to everyone, but they still regard themselves as friends.

Ron trembled. He originally thought that he was an incomprehensible hero like Peter Pettigrew, but what he saw now, Peter was a humble, most cowardly wretch, the culprit of all unfortunate events, and I actually helped him and betrayed my friends.

Although still under the control of the Imperius Curse, Ron suddenly cried, crying more sadly than ever.

He suddenly realized that he was really a bastard, an unprecedented bastard!

Just like last year, he would rather trust a strange diary, an evil dark wizard, than his friends!

Chapter 157 The Power of Friendship

Ron trembled, the memories of the past month, the memories that should have disappeared, flashed through his mind one by one like slides.

He remembered the things he did after he was controlled by Peter Pettigrew. He broke into the professor's office alone in the middle of the night to find the Marauder's Map, wrote letters to Lucius Malfoy and planned despicable plots, in front of all the students in the school. Professor Lupine, who accused the innocent, told Snape about the whereabouts of Sirius Black...

He originally thought that all these things he did were correct. Although they were under the control of Peter Pettigrew, he never tried to resist.

Because he knows he is saving Harry, Ivan, Hermione and everyone, he is a hero!

But now it seems that this is not the case at all.

He's not a hero, but an out-and-out loser, an accomplice to the gangster who killed Harry's parents.

Ron's eyes gradually returned to clarity, and he couldn't believe what he had done.

He actually helped Peter Pettigrew, a murderer who defected to Voldemort and killed Harry's parents, he betrayed Harry, Ivan and Hermione, he failed his friends' trust in him, he framed Professor Lupine , but also to frame Sirius Black...

Ron trembled, watching Ivan, Harry, and Hermione look at him with expressions full of worry, disappointment, and disbelief.

Ron felt distressed for a while, he knew he was such a jerk, and he had to find a way to make up for it all.

Peter Pettigrew was slowly approaching the gate of the castle with Ron, and he asked Black, Ivan, Harry, and Hermione to stay where they were.

He was delighted to find that he had actually passed through the gate. The weird barrier magic that prevented him from passing just now did not appear, and he could already feel the fresh, cold air outside the castle.

The sky was completely dark, and the bright full moon climbed into the sky.

Under the moonlight, Peter Pettigrew controlled Ron, and they walked through the grounds outside the castle to the Forbidden Forest not far away.

In the distance, the figures of Ivan, Harry, Hermione, and Black became more and more blurred, and they gradually disappeared into the huge silhouette of the castle.

Seeing that he was getting closer and closer to the Forbidden Forest, Peter Pettigrew was so excited that he finally escaped.

The next second, just when he thought he was about to succeed.

Ron suddenly resisted violently. He tightly held Peter Pettigrew's right hand missing a finger, and struggled with all his strength to snatch his wand.

"Sorry, sorry!" Ron cried out against Peter Pettigrew, "Sorry, Harry! Sorry, Ivan! Sorry, Hermione! It's all my fault, I shouldn't have doubted you, I shouldn't have If you don't believe me, look what I've done..."

Ron cried hoarsely, crying so sadly.

Hearing Ron's voice, Ivan, Harry, Hermione, and Black were all stunned for a moment. They were delighted to find that Ron had recovered. He successfully resisted the control of the Imperius Curse with his willpower.They hurriedly grabbed the wands on the ground and rushed towards Ron and Peter Pettigrew outside the castle.

"Damn, damn, what are you doing?!" Peter Pettigrew screamed, not understanding why Ron would break free from his grip.

He chanted a spell quickly, preparing to regain control of Ron.

But Peter Pettigrew was surprised to find that the Imperius Curse had lost its effect. His magic could not control Ron at all. The boy in front of him successfully resisted the Imperius Curse with his strong willpower.

It's impossible, it's unbelievable.

"No!" Peter Pettigrew couldn't believe Ron could do it.

Is this still Ron?

Is this still that humble, cowardly boy who resembles him?

Is this still the same, mediocre loser who is full of jealousy and resentment towards his friends?

Peter Pettigrew doesn't understand what happened to Ron, he doesn't!

With the help of a force born from the depths of his heart, Ron's willpower was stronger than ever.

This is the power of friendship. Peter Pettigrew, a pathetic betrayer, will never understand this when he treats his friends as an exchange of interests.

Ron broke free from the Imperius Curse, and he defeated Peter Pettigrew!

Now, among the six people in front of the gate of Hogwarts Castle, only Peter is the only loser.

"Come on, Harry! Come on, Ivan! I caught him!" Ron's eyes were red, and he held Peter Pettigrew's right hand holding the wand tightly, crying loudly, "Don't worry about it!" Me, attack him quickly, I can't let this guy run away!"

"No, don't blame it!" Peter Pettigrew screamed, his voice hoarse and feeble.

He tried hard to break free from Ron's control, but Ron seemed to be crazy, ignoring the injuries he suffered all over his body, and grabbed him tightly with both hands.

Seeing Ivan, Harry, Hermione, and Black getting closer, Peter Pettigrew flusteredly chanted spells.

Since Ron can't be controlled anymore, at least the boy should stop moving around.

Before Peter Pettigrew successfully cast the spell, an unknown animal suddenly passed under his feet and tripped him.

Bang!

Pettigrew Peter and Ron fell hard to the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust.

Peter Pettigrew raised his head a few inches in surprise, and saw an animal crawling into the grass next to him. This animal made him feel familiar. He tried hard to see what it was, but his eyes were blurred by sweat. The tall, thin and agile figure flashed by.

In the distant sky, the temperature at night is extremely cold, and it is getting colder and colder, and the temperature is dropping rapidly.

Then, Peter Pettigrew saw clearly that it was a dementor, there were at least two hundred dementors, they were attracted by Ron's shouts, they were crowded together in a black mass, with suffocating breath Cold, gliding toward them around the Hogwarts walls.

A cold feeling penetrated his internal organs, and the fog began to blur his vision.

The dementors were getting closer, more and more of these guys came from the darkness on all sides, and they were about to surround him.

"No, don't!" Peter Pettigrew murmured weakly, shaking uncontrollably all over his body.

He was very, very scared, he was scared out of his wits!
