Walking out of Harry's house, Segnus's face was calm, as if nothing in the world could touch her unfathomable heart.

However, the etiquette education she received since childhood made her unconsciously put on a decent smile.

She gently brushed a strand of hair from her ear, her eyes drifting into the distance, as if she was thinking about something.

Sigmatte was contemplating casting the Apparition Charm that would take her back to Malfoy Manor in an instant.

But at this moment, her eyes were involuntarily attracted by a figure across the street.

It was a large black dog, squatting on the shabby porch of the house across from the Dursleys.

Its hair was as disheveled as if it had just walked out of a storm, and every strand of hair showed signs of not having been combed for a long time.

He looked so miserable and miserable that it was heartbreaking, and he exuded an indescribable sense of desolation.

“The big black dog had dull eyes, thin limbs, and a bony body that looked like it could be blown down by the wind at any time.

It was trembling slightly, and the scars on its body looked particularly dazzling in the sunlight, telling of the hardships it had experienced.

The big dog's eyes were round and stared straight in the direction of the Dursleys' house, as if guarding some secret.

Its ears were tilted forward slightly, and its tail was gently sweeping the ground, as if it was concentrating deeply.

At this moment, Segnus inadvertently raised her head and her eyes met the big dog's.

The black dog did not flinch, but instead widened its eyes and stared back at Segnus.

If there is someone in the world who can see Animagus at a glance, Cygnus is one of them.

She saw that the so-called black dog was actually a black-haired man, who was lying on all fours, just like a real dog, but it looked a little funny from Cygnus's perspective.

Segnus took a deep breath and walked slowly towards the black dog. Each step she took seemed so calm, as if she was walking on a red carpet, with an indescribable grace in her elegance.

"Uncle, are you really going to lie here like this forever?" She said jokingly, but her eyes were full of warmth.

By now, she already had an idea in her mind. Who else in the world could be an Animagus who could transform into a black dog except her brother, Sirius Black, whom her mother loved and hated?

As soon as Sirius saw the familiar platinum hair, a guess flashed through his mind.

Segnus's identity was nothing new to him.

I remember that he once held this little niece in his arms and amused her.

The corners of his mouth rose slightly, and the scene at that time seemed to appear in front of his eyes: little Segnus giggled, waving her chubby little hands in the air.

At that time, James was still alive and everything was fine. He shook his head and whispered to himself: "Oh, time flies."

He thought that Segnus would turn around and leave, but he didn't expect that the girl would walk straight towards him.

His heart suddenly rose to his throat, and his mind was beating wildly, as if a deer was running around in his chest.

How she had seen through his animagus identity was a mystery.

Segnus smiled slightly, her bright eyes seemed to be able to see through people's hearts, and she saw through Sirius's thoughts at a glance.

"Don't be nervous, uncle. I'm not here to arrest you."

As she spoke, she reached into her pocket, as if looking for some small thing.

Sirius was still cautious. After escaping from Azkaban, he was like a frightened wolf, hiding everywhere and not daring to trust anyone.

He watched Segnus' every move nervously, his brows furrowed, as if ready to run away at any time.

Segnus's bright eyes were full of trust in him.

"Follow me." Sirius in the form of a black dog muttered, stood up hesitantly, and staggered towards the quiet park not far away.

Without saying a word, Segnus trotted after him.

The trees in the park are growing well and are lush and green. The sunlight dances among the leaves, casting a colorful light all over the ground.

Sirius chose a particularly large tree, looked around to make sure no one was paying attention, then shook his fur with relief.

"The human form is still much more comfortable." Sirius rubbed his shoulders and said with a smile.

Cygnus handed him a piece of chocolate with a smile and said jokingly, "Uncle, it seems that your life as a dog is not easy!"

Sirius chuckled, took the chocolate, hurriedly tore open the wrapper, and couldn't wait to put the chocolate into his mouth.

He closed his eyes, looking intoxicated, and then exhaled with satisfaction, "This smell is really nostalgic!"

The two then sat down on a nearby bench, the sunlight shining on them, making them look particularly lazy.

Segnus asked about his recent situation, while Sirius was concerned about her studies and life.

"Hey, come to think of it, how did you find out it was me?" Sirius raised his eyebrows and asked in surprise.

Segnus blinked his eyes and a smug smile appeared on his lips. "Mom showed me your photo before, and I remember it very clearly. Besides, your big round eyes are so distinctive. I can tell at a glance that you are not an ordinary dog ​​on the street."

As she spoke, she stretched out her hand and gestured the size of her eyes in a serious manner.

Sirius couldn't help laughing out loud. He shook his head and looked at Secenas with a look mixed with emotion: "You are really smart."

He shrugged lightly, with a helpless smile on his face: "Being smart sometimes brings trouble, especially in a family like ours. The more you know, the faster trouble will come to you."

He slowly raised his head, his eyes penetrating the sparse clouds, as if he was chasing after those drifting past events. "You know, I am in this state because of a ridiculous misunderstanding, a really huge misunderstanding."

Segnus frowned slightly and bit her lower lip unconsciously. She knew what her uncle was referring to.

"Uncle, I understand you. You are definitely not the kind of person they say you are."

Cygnus's eyes were firm, like the brightest stars in the night sky, bringing a touch of warmth to Sirius.

Sirius turned his head slowly, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, followed by deep gratitude.

He smiled slightly, a smile that was a bit bitter and a bit relieved.

"Thank you, Cygnus." He said softly, with a rare tenderness in his tone. "You are probably the only one in this world who believes in me unconditionally like this."

Sirius took a deep breath, and there was a hint of pain in his eyes that was hard to hide.

He paused, the corners of his mouth twitching slightly, as if he was trying to suppress the turmoil in his heart.

Then he slowly raised his head and looked straight ahead with a firm gaze, as if he was staring at a truth that only he could see.

"You know, I was chased all over the city like a fugitive."

His voice was low and a little hoarse, but he tried to remain calm. "People outside think that I am Voldemort's accomplice and that I betrayed James. But in fact, the real black hand behind this is our mutual friend - Peter Pettigrew."

He shook his head, a sarcastic smile on his face: "But who would believe that? The truth is sometimes like being cast under a confusing spell, no one can see clearly."
